Cheat day

My House

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

I greeted them, and Mukunji responded with a small smile.

What would you like to eat? I’ll go buy it.

“I will go with you.”

I was trying to figure out how to express my feelings while I was away, but I’m flustered.

However, there was no particular reason to refuse, so I locked the office door and left together.

“Was today’s broadcast script perhaps boring?”

While waiting for the elevator, Mukunji asked how the script was.

“No.” Exactly. If that were the case, I would have told you in advance. Why? “Did it not turn out well?”

“There are times when you usually act exaggeratedly, but today was particularly so, which was puzzling.”

“Ah.”

When I said I was hot, they didn’t lower the air conditioning, but when Baek Woo-jin said it, they immediately lowered the temperature, so I felt strange.

I told Baek Woo-jin about it, but it seemed strange to him.

Thinking back on it, my own behavior feels strange to me too.

“Is there another reason?”

Mugunji got into the elevator and asked.

Seeing your eyes looking at me without any pretense, I become honest without even realizing it.

“I’m a bit angry.”

“Mr. Baek Woo-jin, were you that angry about the heat?”

“No.” Since Woojin said it was hot, the PD turned on the air conditioner, right?

“Yes.”

Have I really been this childish?

I feel embarrassed even while saying it.

“That made me angry.”

The aged kimchi blinks at me.

“Were you trying to save on the electricity bill?”

“No.”

“Then why…….”

“When I said I was hot, you said no.”

What am I even saying right now?

I can’t believe myself. I had no confidence in facing the aged kimchi, so as soon as the door opened, I hurriedly rushed out.

I don’t know why you brought that up.

I walked ahead in a fluster, but it’s so stupidly hopeless to think that I have to wait since we’re going to the same place anyway.

While waiting in front of the building, the old pickled cabbage slowly approached.

“I understand.”

“Yes?”

I was taken aback and asked back.

I couldn’t help but be surprised by Mukji’s understanding of the nonsense I just blurted out.

“Thinking about it, I can see how that might be the case.” “It was merely an action for the smooth progress of the broadcast, and I had no other intentions.”

“Of course.” I know.

I felt infinitely small in front of Mukji, who was even trying to understand the absurd things I said.

“I don’t know why I’m like this either.”

The moment I turn my head and see the aged kimchi, I become honest again.

“Actually, I know.” I know.

I feel like my heart is going to burst.

The air on the night before summer is somewhat humid, and the high-rise buildings surrounding the area have lights flickering here and there.

Amidst the people walking on the street and the sound of car engines, only she captures my gaze and ears.

“I like you.”

Muk-ji is flustered. Looking around, they don’t know what to do.

“I was jealous because I liked you.”

I pondered over it for several days.

Where and in what voice to convey it.

I practiced in front of the mirror, trying to figure out what kind of expression to make and whether it looked strange, but I often turned my head in embarrassment.

I wondered what words I should use to fully convey my feelings, so I wrote and erased on the practice sheet over and over again.

After pulling the blanket and kicking it dozens of times, I got jealous.

Among all those countless imaginations, this is the most pathetic confession.

“Pathetic, isn’t it?”

“Why do you think that?”

“That’s all they say.”

I couldn’t continue speaking.

“I was a bit flustered, but I felt relieved.”

The traffic light has changed.

However, I also didn’t cross the pedestrian bridge.

“You never expressed it directly, so sometimes I wondered if I was mistaken.”

I don’t know what it means.

“But you said you felt jealous.” I’m very pleased to hear it directly from you.

The aged kimchi smiled at me.

“I like it too.”

I’m unbelievably happy, but…

In fact, I might have already known.

The conversations, expressions, emotions, and time we shared all told me that my feelings right now were not an illusion.

A lot. I like it a lot.

“I like it a lot too.”

I was looking at her when I suddenly felt shy and looked at the traffic light.

Waiting side by side for the green light, the moment the signal changed and we stepped forward, our hands brushed once, and then again.

They moved a little closer and pressed their palms together.

There was no time to even think about which salad to eat, and it felt like a disaster would strike if I let go of my hands until I returned to the office.

Even after entering, I held on tightly.

I should have taken out the salad, but I didn’t want to, so I put it down, and we just held hands and pretended to be busy.

“……It was childish, wasn’t it?” To Woojin.

“The CEO was originally somewhat childish.”

“Yes?”

***

“That point is cute.” I walked quickly because I was embarrassed, but then I realized we had to go together, so I waited.

I got caught.

“I don’t know why I did that either.”

“I thought Mr. Baek Woo-jin might surprisingly have a strong body odor.”

“Heheh.” What is that?

“I thought you were just smelling like sweat because you got a little sweaty.”

“Hahaha!”

It was so absurd and ridiculous that I burst out laughing. I didn’t know, but sometimes he says the most ridiculous things.

“Shall we eat now?”

After laughing heartily once, I suggested we eat, and the aged kimchi nodded.

Please provide the text you would like to have translated.

Tonight’s dinner is chicken breast salad.

The CEO frowns and rummages through the salad.

Even though they hate it so much, I wonder why they insisted on the same thing, but when they frown and then make eye contact, they break into a big smile.

Then I also feel good, and my lips keep curling up, making me lower my head.

I haven’t felt this way in a really long time.

In fact, there was some anxiety.

At first, they were so proactive, but after work, they never contacted me first.

I understood that since you work so much, you must be tired and go to bed early.

I always called him PD, but I realized that when it came to work, I also called him CEO to make a distinction, and I understood his deep consideration.

I thought that not saying “I love you” or “I like you” was also because I was embarrassed.

I thought that was enough since both my feelings and his had been fully conveyed.

However, it was hard to understand why there was no common physical affection between lovers.

I started to doubt whether I was mistaken, given that he didn’t even think about holding hands, let alone kissing, which even kindergarteners do.

Then, when I suddenly got offered a two-day, one-night trip, I was taken aback.

I was wondering if he was just dull, or if it was my misunderstanding, or if he simply had no such desires at all.

I thought, surprisingly, there’s a bold side to you.

I thought that saying I wanted to introduce you to my mother was moving too fast.

Thus, the doubts were resolved, but the anxiety remained.

I was worried that he might not like me because I was too skinny, and I kept wanting to confirm whether he really liked me.

And today, after spending the weekend while suppressing the desire to see you.

With truly unexpected actions, they dispelled all doubts.

“Would you like some more?”

The CEO offered me a salad.

Chicken breast, sprouts, lettuce, and bell peppers are all things I dislike.

“I can’t eat that much.”

“……PD-nim.”

“Yes.”

“Where was I okay?”

The intention behind the question is obvious.

He was also anxious like me.

When I think about it, I realize that I’m the same when it comes to not expressing myself, so I can understand why the CEO mentioned feeling jealous and liking Mr. Baek Woo-jin today.

“At first, I didn’t see him as a man.”

The way they have their mouth wide open is cute.

“I thought he was just a strange person who says strange things.”

The mouth gets bigger.

“However, as we started working together, things gradually changed.” Even with wounds, knowing how to consider others, and even with pain, knowing how to rise again. I came to respect that attitude by observing it up close.

He/she is embarrassed, rubbing his/her neck.

“When I first found out about the feelings, I was taken aback, but eventually, I realized that despite those feelings, I had already kept them in my heart.” I wanted to get to know you slowly, just as you said.

Tilts the head slightly.

It seems like it doesn’t resonate.

“At that time, it was a bit cool.”

“When?”

“In front of the Hongdangmu Entertainment headquarters.”

The day I provoked Kim Seo-jin.

I was going to take a hit, but I wasn’t unafraid.

At that time, I weighed about 34 kg, and if an adult man was determined to harm me, I couldn’t resist.

It was broad daylight and in an open space, and I was carrying a self-defense spray, but I was barely able to hold my trembling body together.

I don’t know how they found the courage to do that.

No.

To protect this person and to protect my relationship with this person.

“And the way he never lost his smile while driving the Baek Seung’s car was truly impressive.”

The CEO mumbles and then bursts out laughing.

“I was a bit confused at first too.”

It’s the first time we’re having such an open conversation, so I’m curious about what we’ll talk about.

“What part was confusing?”

“She handles contracts well, plans well, is diligent and sharp, and sometimes says something unexpected that makes us laugh.”

I still don’t know what I want to say.

“So I thought you liked it, but it turns out you didn’t.”

“Then what is it?”

“Just being together is nice.” Whether we talk or not, it just feels good.

“…….”

“Whether the PD is skinny or fat.” Whether you do the job well or poorly. That doesn’t matter, huh? When I had that thought, I felt certain.

The representative’s uvula moved up and down. It looks like he/she swallowed his/her saliva.

“I really like you.”

After saying it herself, she eats a chicken breast salad and then makes a sad face again, as if embarrassed.

They say that if a guy looks cute, he doesn’t stand a chance.

That’s me.

“Me.”

“Yes.”

“I have something I really want to try.” Are you okay?

Suddenly, he looks at me with a serious face.

Every time, you make people flustered like this, but I don’t dislike it.

Slowly nodding and closing my eyes, I feel him approaching.

“Ha!”

“……?”

It was strange, so I opened my eyes and saw that my phone, which was next to me, was gone.

“I really wanted to try this D+ for a few days.”

“…….”

Are you a kindergartener?

“Is it okay if I put it on my KakaoTalk profile?”

Not knowing what was on someone else’s mind, the way they asked with a big smile was so cute that it made me laugh.

“I will set it up too.”

I opened KakaoTalk and started creating a profile D-Day.

After finishing the setup and going to the CEO’s profile, I found that the date is set incorrectly.

“You have written the date incorrectly.”

Uh? Isn’t today June 5th?

“Today is June 5th, but it only displays correctly when set to May 8th.” Like this.”

When I showed my profile with D+29 written on it, the CEO tilted his head and furrowed his brow.

“Isn’t it from today?”

“…Yes?”

“Huh?”
