Daisy Flower In Winter

Chapter 3

A cloudy morning was enveloping the capital city of Seoul, even the specks of rain had also fallen from the early morning. The morning air is getting colder because of the cloudiness. In fact, getting colder in addition to the look of three handsome men who were sitting on the same sofa and facing a beautiful woman who sat alone on a different sofa and also face-to-face chilly.

"Why are you, Hyun-ri-a? Why are you ignoring the three of us?" Said one handsome man.

"You're going to keep ignoring us, Hyun-ri-a?" Said another handsome man.

"Stop being childish, Hyun-ri-a." Seok Gwan. Seok Gwan is one of three handsome men sitting on the sofa.

Hyun-ri who heard the words from Seok Gwan was clouded. Seok Gwan may consider it childish. The childish ones are the three of them.

The three handsome men are Hyun-ri's best friends. Besides Seok Gwan, there were two other male companions as well. They were also both friends of Hyun-ri and Seok Gwan from childhood. Their friendship is the same story. Starting from the friendship of their parents. The three best friends of Hyun-ri have the same nature and attitude. Both cold and flat-faced.

Hyun-ri's other two best friends are 25-year-old Lee Hwan Ki, a handsome, tall, burly man and essentially a handsome man. Hwan-ki is also from a wealthy family, he is the second son of the Lee family. Hwan-ki has also been given the responsibility to lead the company from his family and is able to develop his family business very well.

Park Seo Yoon is the same age as Hwan Ki and Seo Yoon is also both handsome and cold. Seo Yoon is just like Seok Gwan and Hyun-ri, she is also both the sole heir and the only child in her family. He also runs and takes full responsibility for his family's company.

The three are currently meeting Hyun-ri in his office. Hyun-ri is ignoring and inhabits the three of them. You know what? Of course, since the three of them ruined her lunch with Gun-yo a week ago, and Hyun-ri has already inhabited them for a week.

"Stop inhabiting the three of us like this Hyun-ri-a." Seo Yoon said.

"What do you want? You want the three of us to drag that Gun-yo over here. So you can stop ignoring and inhabit us?" Coldly asked Seok Gwan.

"Yuna-ri-a.. Stop liking Gun-yo, that Gun-yo." Hwan-ki.

Hyun-ri is still silent and shakes her chest. He just sits and quietly hears his three best friends continue to babble without any words to apologize for destroying his lunch plan with Gun-yo last time.

"The men's base is insensitive" Hyun-ri said inwardly and made an increasingly irritated look.

"Yes-..."

"Shut up, you guys just kept on babbling without apologizing. You should apologize to me and Gun-yo oppa. Because of you, Gun-yo oppa left the restaurant immediately. And until now he's been ignoring me." Cut Hyun-ri fast.

Hyun-ri speaks at length with a sense of regret to his three best friends who do not feel guilty at all. Really, if there is an exchange of friends, Hyun-ri will exchange the addition of his three cool and flat-faced friends, with a 15-door refrigerator at all. So annoying...

"Why do we apologize? We didn't do anything wrong." Said Seok Gwan in an indifferent tone.

"Seok Gwan is right." Hwan-ki.

"Hm.. I agree." Seo Yoon.

"You guys.." said Hyun-ri growled. "Get out of here.. I don't want to meet you guys. Before you admit your mistake." Hyun-ri continues with a grouchy and sullen face.

"View.. Our angry Hyun-ri looks funny." Hwan-ki said with a faint smile.

"Hyun-ri we can't be angry. Because he's too innocent." Seo Yoon.

"He's childish." Seok Gwan said coldly.

Oh, whoever saved Hyun-ri from these three handsome humans. Really, Hyun-ri can't hold back her emotions anymore. He really wanted to put these three friends in a sack and he would throw them into the ocean atlantis. Oh.. No.no.. No, maybe the antlantis ocean is frozen because of the three of them.

"If you three don't want to leave here. Okay, I'll go. I want to see Gun-yo oppa, to apologize." Hyun-ri said annoyedly.

Hearing that his three best friends immediately stood up from his seat simultaneously. And makes Hyun-ri a little surprised because his three best friends suddenly stand up.

"Stay in your office, Hyun-ri-a." Seo Yoon said.

"How dare you meet him, I lock him in your office." Seok Gwan.

"You stay here." Hwan-ki said with great emphasis.

Hyun-ri just silently pecked and blinked her eyes many times hearing the words and threats from her three best friends. What's up with them? Why is that so? That's how Hyun-ri thought about the reaction of her three best friends.

"The three of us are leaving. But you, don't see Gun-yo again." Seok Gwan and Hwan-ki and Seo Yoon.

After saying that, the three men completely left Hyun-ri's study and left Hyun-ri still with her face.

"What's wrong with them." Hyun-ri said as she shook her head quickly.

"Why don't they like me being close to Gun-yo oppa."

******

"Should we just tell Hyun-ri?" ask Hwan-ki to start a conversation.

Now the three of them are in the bar, belonging to Seok Gwan. After Hyun-ri's office the three of them did not return to their respective offices, but to the bar to drink together.

"not now. We haven't had enough evidence to dismantle the rot, you bastard." Seok Gwan said coldly.

"Seok Gwan is right. After all Hyun-ri still likes Gun-yo, right? so he will definitely not hear our words." Seo Yoon said.

"You're right. Hyun-ri still likes him, she admits it herself back then." Seok Gwan replies and remembers his conversation with Hyun-ri while heading to the restaurant.

Flasback a week ago...

"You still like Gun-yo?" *was asking Seok Gwan while focusing on driving.

Hyun-ri who heard Seok Gwan's question also smiled sweetly and nodded slowly.

"Yes, I still love it today."

"Then did he know you liked him a long time ago?" Seok Gwan asked back in a cold tone.

"No, it doesn't seem like he knows. After all, he just thinks I'm his friend. But.. For me that's enough, because I can get close to him."

"Are you stupid or naive? It's obvious that he doesn't like you. Then why do you still like him? Just wasting time." Seok Gwan shares his breath and is only answered with Hyun-ri's composure.

Off* flasback*...

"What does Hyun-ri really like about Gun-yo?" seo Yoon said, I don't think it out.

"Of course, that's clear. Gun-yo is not a good man for our Hyun-ri." Said Seok Gwan while drinking his wine and spending it in a single upright.

"Yes, you're right."

********

"Should I try to call her again and apologize?" Hyun-ri said while looking at her phone.

"alright. I just call him, surely this time he will answer." said Hyun-ri and took his phone to contact Gun-yo who had ignored him for a week.

Feeling nervous and hoping Gun-yo will answer his call and talk to him.

*_*

"Hallo.. Hyun-ri-a?" Said Gun-yo who finally answered Hyun-ri's call.

"Oppa.. You finally answered my call." Sahut Hyun-ri with pleasure.

"Sorry.. Oppa has been busy lately. So, oppa did not have time to answer and reply to your message. Sorry Hyun-ri-a."

"Ah.. That's so.. I think oppa got mad at me for what happened last week. I'm right-be.."

"Yuna-ri-a... Oppa doesn't want to talk about it anymore and oppa isn't mad at you. So, forget it." cut Gun-yo.

"Okay oppa, sorry. Are you busy oppa now?" ask Hyun-ri.

"Hmm no, I just finished my job. How's it going? You're in the office?"

"Ah.iya, good news oppa and yes, now I am in the office. But, I'll be home soon."

"You're coming home in the afternoon? How about we have dinner together? I'll take you to the mansion and don't bring your three best friends back. Hows it?you want?"

"Of course, I want to." Hyun-ri enthusiastically accepts Gun-yo's invitation to dinner.

"alright. I'll pick you up at 7."

"I'll wait for you, oppa."

*_*

And it's common for Hyun-ri that Gun-yo will immediately initiate her call unilaterally when Hyun-ri says she'll be waiting for him. And it's not taboo anymore for Hyun-ri.

"Hm... I'm gonna be beautiful tonight." Hyun-ri said happily. He turned around his chair because he was happy.

This time Hyun-ri won't tell his three best friends if he's going out to dinner with Gun-yo otherwise. So, dinner this time will end just like lunch last week.

"I won't let those three icemen ruin my dinner with Gun-yo oppa."

*Flasback had lunch last week...

"That's it." cut Gun-yo down when Hye-jin will explain.

"Sorry, Hyun-ri-a.. I have to get back to the office. You better have lunch with your three best friends" said Gun-yo coldly.

"Excuse me." she said, leaving the VVIP room at the restaurant where they were having lunch.

"Oppa.." call Hyun-ri to try to hold off Gun-yo who is already out of the room.

"You suck." Hyun-ri told his three best friends.

off* flasback*...

"They really suck. But, they are still my best friends." said Lirih Hyun-ri and felt a little guilty for inhabiting his three best friends for a week.

******

Everyone has a secret in their life. Everyone has another side of their life. Sometimes people will show the other side of his life, sometimes also he saves the other side of his life well. And no one will ever figure out how the other side of everyone is. Is it good or bad? But for sure, the good bad will all be seen over time. Sometimes people will also be fooled by the side that is always displayed by every human being. Where it's not the real identity. Too many faces are displayed so that other humans will find it difficult to interpret the truth.

"Oppa, you waited a long time?" Hyun-ri asks Gun-yo as he just got off the top floor.

"No, I just got up and just sat down." Gun-yo replies as he moves on from his seat. "You've always been beautiful, Hyun-ri-a." Praise Gun-yo while holding Hyun-ri's hand.

"Thank you oppa." Hyun-ri replied a little embarrassed.

"We're leaving now, beautiful princess." Gun-yo said as she bent her arms, letting Hyun-ri hold her hand.

With a sweet smile Hyun-ri holds Gun-yo's arm, and they walk out of Hyun-ri's mansion in unison. They were like lovers but they were just friends. Anyone who saw them now would definitely assume that they were a pair of lovers who were very compatible. A handsome man and also a beautiful and graceful woman. A perfect combination is not.

"Please enter the princess." Gun-yo tells Hyun-ri to get in the car after he opens the car door for Hyun-ri.

"Oppa, why are you being so sweet. But, thank you." Hyun-ri said with a petty laugh as Gun-yo was being sweet.

Hyun-ri enters the car, followed by Gun-yo also enters and sits in the driver's seat next to Hyun-ri. Gun-yo immediately drove his car out of the Han family mansion area. This time their dinner plans, it looks like it will go smoothly without any interference from Hyun-ri's three ice companions.

"Oppas. Where are we going to dinner?" hyun-ri asks open a chat to remove the silent atmosphere in the car.

"Restaurants at King's hotel. Their food is notoriously good, so I'm taking you to dinner there." Gun-yo replies while watching the street in front of him.

"King's Hotel? Isn't that one of the 5-star hotels in downtown, oppa?"

"Hummmmd.. You're right."

"I can't wait to try the food at the restaurant. It was so good that Oppa took me there. Usually oppa would take me to eat at a Japanese restaurant."

"Ah.. Youre right. Until the restaurant waiter always memorized the menu we always ordered when eating together at the Japanese restaurant." replied Gun-yo with a small laugh.

Yes, Gun-yo and Hyun-ri have been out eating together. Sometimes they spend time together, such as watching, shopping, and sometimes vacationing together. But, even so they both do not have a special relationship even though they often spend time together. Just a friend, and never changed since they sit in college until now.

******

Hotel King Restaurant....

After a journey of almost 1 hour, they reached the King hotel. Hyun-ri and Gun-yo have also walked together to enter the restaurant area. Previously Gun-yo had a reservation first, so that he gets a table when he reached the festivities. And sure enough when they entered the restaurant. All the tables were full of guests having dinner. The food at the restaurant was really good. Many people had dinner at the restaurant. They had already occupied their table which was close to a large glass window. Until they can see the night view in the city.

"Look who's coming." Say someone.
