Chapter 7 - Kissing Pose (1/2)
”So, he didn't abduct you,” The cop A asks her skeptically. ”You passed out because you were tired.”
Kang Si An has never been this nervous. He is an actor. So, he is capable of hiding it. Manager Jeong is doing better. She has been with him for years. She is the best manager in the entertainment company. She has brought them to the station before the cops could arrive at their house. She has already prepared an article about the situation. Kang Si An is made a hero who has helped a girl late at night, completely twisting the situation. If things work out, it will give him a heroic image. She would release the article as soon as the situation is handled at the station.
”Yes.” The store girl smile at the cop. She has been taught what to say and what not to say. Manager Jeong has promised her money and Kang Si An's autograph. The store girl has agreed and come to the station willingly. She has even apologized to Kang Si An for creating troubles.
”But, here.” Cop B points at the ŀȧptop screen. ”He looks like he is trying to threaten you.”
”He isn't threatening me.” She adds, ”That's not a threatening pose.”
Kang Si An doesn't know how this store girl can act this calm. He is on the verge of break down. He is one step away from going to prison and ruining his entire career.
”Oh, it's not a threatening pose,” Cop A mutters under his breath. He doesn't believe her at all. ”What kind of pose is it?”
”That's unnecessary,” Manager Jeong tells them in a professional voice. ”She told you that she wasn't threatened or abducted. All misunderstandings are cleared now. Can we leave?”
”No,I don't believe your story.” Cop A replies in the same tone. ”Miss Kwon, what kind of pose is that?”
”Ah...that...” The store girl looks down shyly. ”That's kissing pose. He was about to kiss me before...I passed out because of...”
”What.are.you.saying?” Manager Jeong gives her an eye. ”Kissing POSE?”
”We have been secretly dating. He decided to visit me at my part-time work.”
”What did you say?” Kang Si An grabs her hand below the table. ”What are you saying?”
”I know that you don't want to reveal our relationship to the world.” She holds his hand with her both hands and looks at him with teary eyes. ”But we shouldn't lie to the law, Honey. Didn't you come to see me because you were missing me? You even come yesterday despite your busy schedule. I know that you don't want the world to know how you are addicted to me. You can't stay without me. I know how much you miss the sweetness of our relationship.”
