Vol. 2 Chapter 28: 28

Translated by Chef

Edited by Chef

Consciousness rose and fell between sleep and wakefulness. The thought that it was time for the alarm to go off at the same time that the accumulated fatigue for several days weighed heavily on his eyelids brought him back to the land of the conscious..

He slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was the legs of the bed. Curiosity came first. When did he fall to the floor? While thinking about that, water drops fell on his cheek.

Water?

He raised his head and screamed.

“Oh my god!”

Lee Wooyeon, whose eyes he met, smiled. Inseop calmed his jumping heart and breathed deeply.

“Uh, since when have you been doing that?”

“…Well, I don’t know.”

Lee Wooyeon, who was looking down at Inseop from the bed, replied. His hair was wet as he had woken up first and finished showering. Inseop checked the wall clock.

“We still have time left before we start our schedule,”

Lee Wooyeon, who noticed what Inseop’s behavior meant, replied first.

“Are you feeling okay?”

“Inside? Ahh.”

Lee Wooyeon nodded as if he finally understood the intention of the question.

“I think you drank a lot yesterday…”

Inseop looked up at Lee Wooyeon with a worried face.

“I don’t have a hangover.”

Looking at Lee Wooyeon, who rarely gets drunk no matter how much he drinks, and who appears with a normal face the next day even if he was drunk, CEO Kim once said, “We must do a blood test.” The elixir of immortality must run in his blood. Lee Wooyeon picked up the knife on the table, put it on his wrist, and laughed and said.

‘Do you want to try it?’

After the incident, CEO Kim stopped joking about the immortal ingredients contained in Lee Wooyeon’s blood. Although the harmful treatment of prohibited drugs has begun.

“Well, I’m going to wash up, too.”

It was Lee Wooyeon who fell asleep drunk, but Inseop was the only one who looked disheveled.

He was embarrassed.

“Yes.”

Lee Wooyeon rose from his seat. Inseop quickly organized his blanket and packed his change of clothes and went into the bathroom. He felt strange in the shower. There was no significant physical contact with Lee Wooyeon for nearly 10 days.

He asked for a favor, but he didn’t expect him to listen this well, but he even felt somewhat disappointed.

“…Are you crazy?”

Inseop shook his head quickly. He took a quick shower, got dressed, and went outside. The smell of food whiffed past him.

“Sit there. Let’s eat.”

“I should’ve prepared. I’m sorry.”

“It’s nothing much. There is no food in the refrigerator. I threw away the apple.”

Lee Wooyeon pointed to the dried apple with his chin as he placed the omelet on a plate. Inseop smiled shyly as he sat down at the narrow kitchen island. Come to think of it, he had a vague memory of shopping recently.

“Aren’t you eating at home?”

“Yes. I just don’t have time…”

Lee Wooyeon shut his mouth and looked at Inseop before asking.

“Have you lost weight?

“I do not know.”

He had no appetite these days. It was because he couldn’t sleep well, and somehow, his whole mind was focused on the stories that came up on the Internet, so it felt bitter no matter what he ate.

Lee Wooyeon clicked his tongue as if he was not happy.

“Eat a lot.”

Lee Wooyeon sat across from Inseop and poured milk.

“Thank you for the food.”

Inseop raised a spoon and thanked Lee Wooyeon. The two started eating breakfast without a word. Inseop glanced at Lee Wooyeon.

“Yesterday…”

“…Yesterday”

The two opened their mouths at the same time. Lee Wooyeon lightly blinked at Inseop as if to tell him to speak first.

“Did you two drink with the CEO yesterday?”

“Well, I heard that they were having dinner at the office yesterday, so I went to visit them. Later, it was just the two of us.”

Inseop nodded his head.

“Did I say some nonsense yesterday?”

“Yes?”

“I don’t remember.”

“Oh, you just fell asleep right away.”

Inseop quickly turned around. He was embarrassed to repeat the words that came out of Lee Wooyeon’s mouth yesterday. He couldn’t say that he had sexual desires, and that the object of his sexual desire was him.

“Okay.”

Lee Wooyeon answered as he sliced the omelet with a fork. Inseop hesitated for a while, before asking if he read the article.

“What article? Oh, the one that says Inseop and that woman are a couple, right?”

“It’s not like that…”

“That’s the only thing I saw.”

Lee Wooyeon laughed playfully.

“What did Yoon Ahreum say?”

“I don’t know. I didn’t think of that…”

After replying, Inseop was surprised at himself. To be honest, when he read about them being called a couple, Yoon Ahreum should’ve been the first person he called as she was the one who he called in the middle of the night. However, In-seop was too concerned about Lee Woo-yeon’s feelings and couldn’t even think of Yoon Ahreum. It was embarrassing to say, but lately, his whole mind has been focused only on Lee Woo-yeon.

“I’ll have to call her later and apologize. She must have been offended.”

“If she would’ve been offended, she wouldn’t have come running at dawn.”

At Lee Wooyeon’s words, Inseop quickly raised his head.

“I’m sorry for making you worry about that.”

Inseop apologized honestly to Lee Wooyeon. Even if his staff posted the wrong thing, it could have been misunderstood because two men and a woman showed up at dawn.

“It’s okay. I can ask them to publish a corrected article.”

When surprised Inseop coughed quietly, Lee Wooyeon gave him water.

“Just joking. I don’t care. Articles appear every day saying that there are other people dating here as well. It’s the same for each other.”

Unexpectedly, it seemed like it wasn’t a big deal. Even though it was fortunate, Inseop couldn’t shake the feeling of embarrassment. He thought Lee Wooyeon was still honest in front of him, but these days he couldn’t fully understand his intentions. He didn’t know if it was okay or not.

“Aren’t you eating?”

When Lee Wooyeon tapped the bowl containing the omelet with a fork, Inseop bit off the corner of the omelet and ate it. Lee Wooyeon, who was watching the scene, swallowed a small sigh.

“Do you have any worries?”

Inseop asked without even swallowing the omelet.

“Eat quickly.”

Inseop nodded his head, put the milk-soaked cereal in his mouth and chewed it. But he was worried about Lee Wooyeon who was across from him, so he couldn’t taste anything.

“I had a dog. When I was little,”

Lee Wooyeon muttered, and Inseop raised his head in surprise. The context of the conversation changed suddenly.

“It was kind of like a family custom, but it was a gift you get when you reach a certain age. They said it was some type of a breed dog that went through strict breeding and management.”

“That must have been nice.”

“I pretended to like it.”

Lee Wooyeon’s rough words returned.

“I pretended to be happy and cared for the dog. But that only lasted for a month or two. It got annoying.”

Inseop put down the spoon he was scooping the cereal with. He had to prepare his mind to accept the words that would come out of Lee Wooyeon’s mouth.

“I didn’t kill him.”

Lee Wooyeon smashed Inseop’s false imagination with short words. A faint relief flashed in Inseop’s eyes.

“It’s too big of a burden to ask me, and at that time I was old enough to know that it would be difficult to kill something,” said Lee Wooyeon, tapping his temple.

“Anyway, I didn’t pay attention to the dog since it became a nuisance. No, to be precise, I didn’t pretend to be interested because I wasn’t interested from the start.”

Inseop’s mouth became sullen. Lee Wooyeon was truly amazed at the fact that just by hearing the story of the past, emotions could be so colorful.

“What happened to the dog?”

Inseop asked cautiously.

“Because I didn’t feed them, they refused to eat if anyone else fed him and waited for me. It’s a breed known for being very loyal. They became thinner by the day.”

“Ah… ”

Like a man facing a dog dying of starvation right now, Inseop’s eyes were on fire.

He was trembling.

“Do not worry. A gardener took him in and raised it. Loyalty was gone when he was taken care of by someone with sincerity and love. Happy ending.”

The story that started abruptly also ended abruptly.

“Is this a happy ending?”

“Yes. I’m not bothered anymore, and the dog meets an owner who loves it enough. Was there anymore to it?”

“But… wouldn’t it have waited for the original owner?”

“I don’t know if it was”

Lee Wooyeon scooped up an omelet with a fork and put it in Inseop’s mouth.

“It has nothing to do with me.”

Inseop’s big eyes sank in melancholy. Lee Wooyeon, who was looking at In-seop with his arms wrapped around his table, suddenly called out to Inseop.

“Inseop”

“Yes?

Lee Wooyeon stretched out his upper body. Their lips touched lightly, and then they moved away. Inseop looked blankly at Lee Wooyeon. Lee Wooyeon, who looked younger than usual because of his unkempt hair, smiled sweetly. He had the same face as usual. But what followed was completely unexpected.

“Take a break from work for the time being.”
