Chapter 102 - Cute feelings (1/2)

As Jinhee was about to go to bed— after being tired due to such a long day— Jaehyun called her. This surprised her because she thought he would prefer to not contact her after all that happened.

"Did you have dinner yet?" Jaehyun questioned.

'Dinner? In the midst of all these, I suppose I have forgotten about it.'

"Yeah, I have eaten something light," Jinhee lied, but her growling stomach, which was heard by Jaehyun, told otherwise.

"The crew will be dining at a nearby Korean restaurant, and come down to the lobby after being dressed," Jaehyun voiced out.

The feeling of hunger was not pleasant even though Jinhee did not have the appetite, and therefore, Jinhee could only agree.

"Sure, Jaehyun," Jinhee replied.

°°°

In a private room of the restaurant, Chaewon, Jinhee, Jaehyun, Taehee— whom Jinhee found out was invited by Jaehyun— and some of the crew members were present, seated upon their respective seats.

In front of them were placed their respective dinner. Jinhee's seat was at an awkward position; On her one side was Jaehyun whilst the other was Taehee.

The conversation she had with Jaehyun at the lobby earlier was recalled by her when she took a momentary glance at him.

"Where are the rest of the crew?" Jinhee questioned, looking around the lobby.

"They left. I stayed behind because I had to talk with you on some matters," Jaehyun stated.

On his face sat a slightly tensed expression, making Jinhee wonder on what could have happened. Nonetheless, in his line of business, troubles come by very often.

Curiously, Jinhee questioned, "What's the matter?"

"About my confession— It must have made you feel very uncomfortable," Jaehyun voiced out.

'It was about that?'

Jinhee shook her head with a smile on her face.

"If truth was told, yes, when you made your confession, I did feel troubled. But some part of me felt happy. Sorry if it doesn't sound proper. I was happy to have someone like me in that way," Jinhee answered honestly.

Pinching Jinhee's chubby cheeks, Jaehyun spoke out, "Even now, you don't need to be this careful around me. Don't worry, I don't hold a grudge against you. Sooner or later, I would move on, and it would be great if you could accept me as your friend."
