Chapter 72
Seo Jaehee never once doubted the days filled with Suin.
The idea of a day without her—
The possibility of a crack forming in their relationship—
That scenario simply did not exist in his plan.
Not in the slightest.
―Did you get off work?
That was why, even when Suin read his message while he was on his way to a business dinner but didn’t reply, he didn’t think much of it.
―You’re home, right?
And when the dinner ended, he didn’t hesitate to dismiss Jongin—who treated his job like a sacred duty—before heading straight in the opposite direction, to Suin’s house. It didn’t feel like a hassle.
―I’m in front of your place.
Even standing around in the alley, his pants getting damp from the drizzle, didn’t feel tedious.
He was simply happy.
―I’m meeting a friend.
―I’ll be late.
Her delayed response did disappoint him, but since he had rushed over without asking first, he accepted it easily. Even as he turned away, his mood wasn’t sour.
There was no uneasiness.
No discomfort.
Not even the faintest sense of foreboding.
Even the next morning, when he arrived at work and heard that Suin had suddenly taken a leave of absence—
―Hangover?
―You got me.@@novelbin@@
Even when she took her time replying to his teasing message, he remained relaxed.
What do you think?
