“Oh yes, Bokman Ahjussi says you have a new manager? Who?”, Ji Woo asked Daehyun.
They were both still in the training room. The other members have been home since. Talks about planning the album are over and they decide to work on it next week when Daehyun gets another break from filming.
Daehyun was packing her things after discussing the project together with Ji Woo.
“Lee Daeun's. He's not the new manager. He only replaced Seongmin hyung for a while until the agency found a suitable manager.”, Daehyun replied as he walked out of the practice room.
Yoon Ji Woo also follows her out and walks side by side in the hallway of the building.
“Lee Daeun?”, asked Ji Woo.
It seems Ji Woo doesn't know her. They had met a few times.
“Fruit Bokman hyung.”, reply Daehyun.
“Oh.. those who are looking for our scandal before the media smell, it?”, said Ji Woo.
“Hn.”, reply sluggish.
“Why?”, asked Ji Woo in wonder.
“I'm confused what he's done this week. He's not on set and I have to be with your manager.”, Daehyun said.
“Haha.. Isn't my manager very helpful? He never complained either. Wait, did during our solo activity, I lose a lot of information from you? You don't like your new manager, do you?”, Ji Woo said, leaving Daehyun shocked by his words.
‘How could he possibly think like that?’, Daehyun bathed in heart.
Ji Woo even stopped their steps and asked seriously. Even his gaze was serious.
“Annyeong haseyo.”.
As they stopped, a group of female trainees walked past them and greeted them. Daehyun and Ji Woo immediately reply as seniors to juniors.
“Yaa... Kang Daehyun, you don't like that girl, do you?”, Ji Woo asked.
“You are crazy?”, reply Daehyun pushed a little Ji Woo so that he could continue his steps.
“Then, it means you are really dating Jang Hyun Joo?”, she asked loudly.
“Yaa.. Why don't you bring a microphone and say it out loud?”, Daehyun said with an ambiguous expression.
The man did not agree and did not dispute Ji Woo's words.
“Sssshhh.. I don't know why I thought you were dating Hyun Joo. It's just that you're still in doubt whether it's the right move or not.”, Ji Woo continued.
‘Ahhh. He's like a fortune teller. Surprisingly, why were all his guesses always right?’, Daehyun did not reply and chose to speak inwardly instead.
************
It had been 1 hour, Daeun was still waiting at a Cafe mentioned by Jang Hyun Joo.
“This is his drink.”, a waiter approached Daeun to deliver the drink he ordered.
He had been waiting for 1 hour and his throat was very dry.
“Awas. I'll order a lot of expensive ones once he gets here later. He will definitely pay for it. Ahhh.. I am very thirsty.”, said Daeun chugging away at the newly arrived drink.
Even the waiter who had just delivered his drink was instantly astonished. Indeed it is a fresh fruit juice drink, but not many who spend it just in one throat. Moreover, her condition, she was a woman.
Cringe cring cring
Written name ‘Jang Hyun Joo’ on Daeun's phone. Earlier this morning she had just saved the number for the next day, she found out that Hyun Joo had contacted her. Although the possibility is small.
“Yeoboseyo..”, greet Daeun friendly.
Though in his heart he was already eager to get out the words - nagging words. Other than Daehyun, no one can make him wait for this hour. Does he have no job? He still had to follow the Ahjussi Pisbol to get some more portraits to report on Bokman Ahjussi.
But, this woman was throwing away - wasting her time just like that.
“Daeun-shi.. Can we meet in the park around here? I know a deserted park. I was already there. I'll send you the location. I've been waiting. You come quickly here, yes.”, Hyun Joo ordered.
Daeun had no time to speak, Hyun Joo had already closed his phone first.
He took out his wallet and took out a card and gave it to the cashier. Daeun did not see the card at all. He only had one card and it was certain that the card in his wallet was his.
“Please.”, the officer told Daeun.
Daeun pressed something on the machine given by the officer.
“Oh.. the password is wrong.”, the officer said back.
“Eh? I've entered the correct one.”, Daeun comments and tries to re-enter her password.
“Still wrong. Do you not have another card?”, asked the officer again.
“Wait.. Can you pull out that card.”, said Daeun paying attention to the card he had given her.
‘Why can Daehyun's card be on me? Aaaah..’, Daeun instantly remembered that Daehyun's card was on him. One of the cards belonged to the man of course.
“Excuse me.. Can I add to my order?”, Daeun asked the officer with a smile.
“Bby.. But can I make sure you have a card that can be used?”, asked the officer.
“Haha. I've had. I ordered that menu, right up to the line below. The next drink, up to the left.”, said Daeun smiled steadily.
“All this?”, asked the officer to make sure.
“H.. Sorry I forgot my card. Now I have reminded. Can it be fast in the process? I'm waiting for people.”, Daeun replied steadily.
************
“Jang Hyun Joo-shi?”, greet Daeun as soon as he sees someone in a fairly quiet playground near the apartment complex.
The day was so hot that many did not play in the park. In fact, in some places there are still spots - protected spots.
Hyun Joo sat in one of those spots. She was wearing a long dark blue cotton dress. He was wearing sports shoes and on his arm was a small bag of clothing. Its appearance is relaxed, does not attract attention, but certainly very stunning.
Hyun Joo turned to the source of the voice and managed to find Daeun. His eyes looked at the few pockets that Daeun had brought. Orders of food and drinks that he had bought at the cafe.
“Hahaha.. Just chill. This isn't for you. I happen to have an appointment after this.”, Daeun said taking a seat.
Earlier, he placed the bags neatly on the edge.
“What did you meet me?”, said Daeun whose volume has changed.
Meeting a famous actress like everyone in general like this is a very new thing for her. How come? Who her? Daeun never imagined working for an agency would allow her to gain wide exposure and opportunities to meet celebrities.
“Annyeong haseyo, I'm Jang Hyun Joo. Nice to meet you.”, Hyun Joo suddenly introduced himself in a formal tone.
Daeun who heard that was instantly puzzled.
“Eh? Ah..introduce.. I'm Lee Daeun. It's good to see you too. I did not expect to be able to talk to celebrities this close.”, Daeun said smiling stiffly.
“Ahahaha.. Daehyun is also a celebrity. Sorry, this is the first time I've spoken to you. So, I think I need to introduce myself.”, said Hyun Joo.
The new Daeun will answer, but Hyun Joo seems to have wanted to continue his words.
“I know you're very busy. I won't take up much of your time. I see you've been out for almost a week not accompanying Daehyun filming. I don't know if you already know.” Hyun Joo continued.
“Iya. I was assigned to do something else. I'm not Daehyun's permanent manager, so sometimes there can be someone else who accompanies him.”, Daeun replied.
He still did not understand where Hyun Joo was talking.
‘Knowing? Knowing what?’, he thought.
“Oh. I think your relationship with Daehyun is very close. Good then.”, said Hyun Joo smiling.
“You-you mean? Sorry I don't really understand.”, Daeun asked.
“I and Daehyun, we are dating. To be honest, I was a little distracted by your interaction with Daehyun. I thought you guys had more closeness. It's good that you've made it clear. I'm sorry if I'm overreacting. But, you may not know how I like it very much. He was the first man to appreciate me.”, Hyun Joo said.
Instantly Daeun's mind immediately bared - awang.
