The Journey of Love by an Idol

Episode 107's

Daeun was sitting at a stop not far from the TV station building where the new Drama and Film Awards ceremony took place a few hours ago. Beside him lies a bag and some of Daehyun's equipment left behind by the man just like that.

During his several months working in the agency office, Daeun had already been scolded several times. First, his job which is an Idol Secret Agent makes the celebrities feel Daeun too meddling in their affairs.

Daeun will pull the celebrities out of their pleasure zone as well as into a potential big scandal. Never once did he have to willingly break into a club he had never been in before just to attract an agency celebrity who was drunk and potentially caused a scandal.

Before the other agency team in charge came along, Daeun was the first hand to deal with it.

His work that revealed some suspicious transactions, toxic friendship circles, and celebrity activities made not a few who hated Idol Secret Agents including himself.

Not to mention the last time, he had almost been harassed by the Pisbol even himself was almost in greater danger because of that. All he did to get a life he never had before.

Almost no one accepted Daeun because she had no family. This agency and job is Daeun's only hope in order to change his life. Living and growing up in an orphanage makes Daeun want a lot of things that are actually common to outsiders.

As simple as wanting to have your own bed, your own chair, your own dining table, your own refrigerator, your own toilet, order your own food, and anything else that for others has become their routine.

Daeun had always shared and had no space of her own before this. And among all those difficulties, Daeun felt that only Daehyun treated him as usual. Even as friends.

Although Daeun nags because Daehyun often violates the rules of Bokman Ahjussi, but Daeun enjoys the togetherness that she never got.

As an orphanage resident, Daeun does get the opportunity to go to school. However, no one wanted to be friends with him because he had no influence.

Daeun has never tasted eating in front of a minimarket with friends. Never played PC bang with friends, never camping, and all that he could do while he worked with Daehyun.

Daehyun's anger made Daeun really hurt. No, he's disappointed in himself. Daehyun had clearly warned him about the interview. Daehyun did not want to receive any interviews. Supposedly, Daeun was able to handle that well but she instead agreed and let Yura and Hyun Joo's management take over.

‘I know I was wrong. But isn't he also outrageously scolding me in front of everyone? He even yelled at me.’, teardrops still coming out of Daeun's cheek.

He missed a lot of buses. The people waiting with him only looked at Daeun with confused expressions.

Cringe cring

A cell phone ringing. It had been three times since then but Daeun had not heard it. His ears are still working well. But his heart and mind refused to listen to anything around him. All quiet. Everything around him just moved quickly without making a sound.

“Agassi, Agassi.. “, call someone next to him.

The middle-aged woman patted Daeun on the shoulder until she regained her senses.

“Oh?”, said Daeun when it dawned on someone calling her.

“Your phone reads. You don't want to lift it?”, the woman asked.

“Ah.. hn..”, Daeun replied while wiping her tears and checking her phone.

“Bis is here. I'm headfirst. You don't want to go up?”, ask the woman back.

“Oh. I'll ride.”, reply Daeun then take the bag beside her and ride following the woman along with other prospective passengers.

“Yeoboseyo.. “, Daeun replied while picking up her phone.

He did not pay attention to the name behind the phone so out of focus.

“Lee Daeun?”, call the person across there.

“Oh.. Ne.. Bokman Ahjussi.”, it turns out it was Bokman Ahjussi.

The leaves can recognize his voice immediately.

“I heard from the crew that Daehyun scolded you in the waiting room because of an interview.”, Bokman went straight to the heart of the conversation.

“Ah.. Ne..”, Daeun tried to hold back her crying again.

Remembering the incident earlier, it somehow made his heart sad.

“Not mind you. Maybe he's sensitive. You're home yet? I heard Daehyun just left in the van and wasn't waiting for you. You can take a taxi with a company credit card. No problem.”, said Bokman Ahjussi.

“Already.. I'm already home. No need for Ahjussi. I've been on the bus. The distance is not too far.”, explained Daeun.

“Hm.. alright then. You don't have to be sad. Tomorrow I will talk to Daehyun.”, Bokman Ahjussi said.

“No.. Today's incident was my fault. I know that Daehyun does not like interviews like this, but I did not manage to overcome it well.”, Daeun explained back.

“Hm..all right if you think like that. He likes to overdo it sometimes. Alright. There's no set schedule tomorrow, right? You rest.”, said Bokman Ahjussi again.

“He is an adult. I sent someone to take care of it. If he sees you there. Maybe he'll scold you again. Never mind, you go home and rest. Two more days, you can go back to standby with Daehyun to continue filming his drama.”, Bokman said.

“Hm.. alright then. Kamsahamnida.”, reply Daeun before closing her phone.

***********

“Halo... Daehyun! I can't just let our conversation end. Let's meet up to talk.”, Hyun Joo said back to contact Daehyun who was already on his way to the after party venue.

“What else to talk about? I guess everything is clear.”, Daehyun replied.

“Of course there are. I'm sorry for my attitude. Meet me at the club *****.”\, Hyun Joo said.

“Why is there? Isn't the After Party event held at the club **********.”\, Daehyun said correcting.

“They changed their location. You didn't get the information?”, Hyun Joo asked.

“Any.. I don't know anything about location changes. Aren't you wrong?”, asked Daehyun.

“No. If you don't believe me, you can contact the drama crew.” Hyun Joo said.

“Ahjussi\, turn to the club *****.”\, Daehyun told the driver of his van.

Hyun Joo smiled winning behind his phone.

“Then. See you there.”, said Hyun Joo.

“Yaaa.. Jang Hyun Joo, what do you want to do? Isn't his After Party event fixed in the old club.”, Yura protested.

“Eonni, did you say that if I wanted to meet Daehyun without the media knowing, I should be smart? I'll meet Daehyun at another club to avoid the media. You are this, do not know what.”, said Hyun Joo.

“Yaa.. Are you stupid or what? Precisely if you meet Daehyun outside the After Party event, it will be more suspicious. You're co-star nay in an on-going drama, so it doesn't matter if you look familiar even at the after party.” show, Yura explained to Hyun Joo.

“Oh.. was that so?”, suddenly, Hyun Joo began to doubt his decision.

“Ah. I don't know. I told Daehyun that. If I say I'm wrong. Instead he would consider me a liar.”, said Hyun Joo.

“Huh, it is the fact. You lied to him. Why are you guys fighting?”, asked Yura suddenly.

“Broke? Who is fighting. We did not fight.”, Hyun Joo was surprised because Yura smelled the smell of their quarrel.

“You think you can fool me? Daehyun's look at you is different. Your interaction is also strange.”, Yura said.

“Whatever where? I don't think there's anything strange about our relationship.”, Hyun Joo still doesn't want to confess.

He knows right. If he confessed, Yura would definitely plan to influence him to immediately break up from Daehyun.

“You do not give warm looks or smiles. The way you treated Daehyun after he managed to win the award was also ordinary. You even seem to doubt - doubt. In addition, Daehyun's attitude towards his manager was also excessive. What - what the fuck scolded Daeun to the extent.”, Yura said as she squinted her eyes giving a suspicious look at Hyun Joo.

“If you want to write a novel, just write it yourself. Don't involve me.” Hyun Joo said choosing not to extend the conversation.

Yura was still looking at him while eating a piece of sausage that she bought in the mini market.

“Just spend your sausage.”, said Hyun Joo.

“Ahjussi, in front of left turn. You know the place, right? Don't go down in front of the club. Down next to the mini market as usual.”, said Hyun Joo while wearing his equipment.

************

“Hah. Is he going to silence me? Or will he scold me again? Or he'll pretend nothing happened - what? Better the last option. Argh... what should I do.”, Daeun arrived at her apartment.

He immediately threw the bag over the sofa and dropped his body on the mattress. His gaze focused to the sky - the sky of the room while occasionally sighing.

After about 5 minutes of watching the sky, Daeun woke up and opened the window of her room. This is why he rented this apartment. In addition to being in a safer area, Daeun also likes some window positions that directly lead to the city forest.

Unfortunately, this apartment does not yet have an adequate balcony. All the apartments with a capable balcony he had asked. Everything expensive. With his monthly salary now, Daeun can only afford to rent this one apartment. But, he was already grateful instead of having to rent a studio. Slowly he felt he could get closer to his dream.

But, along with that, the stress he got was also getting higher. Again he thought back to Daehyun's anger at him.
