CH. 1 A new beginning
"Young-do ah, Hajima (don't do this)" Eunsang shakily whispered as she stared at him intently with her tear-filled eyes.
YD blinked hard a few times, trying to control his uncontrollable emotions.
"sigh, let's not do this today, I am not falling for this again," YD said as he got up from the couch, preparing to leave the person that he had been missing lately.
"Ya, Choi Young Do, are you really going to be like this?" her voice wavered with hurt as she could only stare at his retreating tall figure.
The door closed softly behind him, and as if on cue, ES burst into uncontrollable tears as she tried to make sense of what happened today.
It has been years since the good old days in Jaguk High, ES and Tan were the legendary couple up until KT's father step in and tored them apart.
Kim Tan was forced to let ES go in the cruelest way possible, and ES was left shattered and vulnerable. At that time, if CYD had not step in and extended his hand out to her, she would have forever harboured distrusts and hatred for the rich.
It has been years since that fateful day when she finally gave into CYD's relentless chase and began to trust him as a friend. After KT, ES believed in no one for two years. If anyone cam forward with any form of interest towards her, CYD was there like a towering bodyguard to scare them away.
Although he was sarcastic and downright rude sometimes, but beneath it all, he was not all that bad. During those lonely times, he was comforting to be with as she was to him. In her harsh world of poverty and his rich world of loneliness, they both found solace in each other's companion.
Their peaceful days started to show signs of cracks as news of KT's trip back to korea was broadcasted on local news.
3 days ago
"Choi-young do, didn't I say not to call me at work?" ES answered in pretended anger, as she juggled with her paper works in her arms, while smiling at the thought of him.
"Aww, I see that you miss me too", CYD answered, his deep voice dripped with his usual sarcastic humour.
"Why are you calling?" ES smiled in relief hearing his good mood through his voice. She had expected a more grumpy YD today because of his meeting with his father last night.
"Dinner. What time? And what do you want to eat?" Again, it was straight forward, brief and consistent, he had asked her this same question everyday since the past 5 years. There would be something missing without hearing this from him everyday.
ES smiled softly as she reminisces the promise she'd made to him that night long ago when she saw his lonely figure sitting alone at a table in the coffee shop that she'd worked.
"Why are you still here?" ES asked.
CYD sighed heavily, looking up from the table with sad eyes before forcing a smirk on his face.
"Ah, so you're ready to see me now, new money?"
"Everyone already knows that I am not new-…wait-are you okay?" the words unconsciously left ES mouth as she noticed how odd he looked.
He blinked out his emotion, and got up abruptly before saying in a joking manner, " Of course, couldn't be any better. But wow, look at the time. If you work like this all the time, you'll be new money in no time. Anyway it's late, I can't stay and play with you today new-money, maybe next time."
He turned to leave, but something propelled ES to go after him. ES grabbed hold of his arm and stopped him in his track.
"Tell me. Tell me, why did you come here today? Did something happened?" ES said bravely, she knew getting involved with him will not do her any good, but for some unknown reason, his unusual manner was probing her to continue.
CYD turned around, and slowly ES released her hands as she stared at him. He stared at her intently for a moment. No words could describe the deep hurt that ES felt radiating from him.
For once, the confident Choi Young Do looked unsure and insecured.
His lips trembled slightly in hesitance before he spoke.
"Let's make a deal…I will protect you from everyone, if you eat dinner with me every night".
"Helloooo-" CYD's deep voice broke through her thought as she became flustered from thinking too much into the past again.
" 7 o' clock. Let's have home cook meal. I'll cook at your place. I'm hanging up." ES said hurriedly before abruptly hanging up.
CYD looked at his phone in a deep frown before bursting into a wide smile.
"Ya, what did ES say now?" MS curiously questioned his friend, as he noticed his smile.
"Ya, when are you going to go home?" CYD said, as he threw the sofa pillow at his friend.
"Ahh, it's a secret. I get i., I won't ask, but seriously why don't you two just date already? Aren't you already seeing each other daily?" MS nonchalantly said as he threw the pillow playfully back at him.
"If it was that easy, then it wouldn't be fun anymore". CYD jokingly said as he pushed away his bitter thoughts.
"Young-do ah, right now I am at your door, can you op-"
The door swung open as she stared up at him. His solemn face broke into the familiar smirk as he welcomed her with his usual phrase, " Ah really, Eunsang ah- Why are you acting like a guest, did you forget how to use the key?".
ES stared at YD as he leaned forward, it was weird that CYD had started to call her by her name. It has only been a month since he had stopped calling her "flower", of course, that happened after she threw a fit over it and ignored him for 3 days.
"I-I know, but I still wanted to make sure you're home before coming in. Hey, do you mind eating kimbap?" ES hurriedly walked past him into the kitchen. With much familiarity of the place, she started to take out the pan and knives and began preparing for dinner.
YD silently came behind her before swiftly putting the cooking apron on her.
"Don't forget your apron", CYD whispered into ES's ear. ES swiftly turned around, flustered at the closeness.
"Y-ya, I could have done that". Flustered, ES gently pushed him away.
"Why don't you go read a book or something", ES said as she shooed him away in embarrassment.
YD smirked, before he sat on a stool and stared intently at her while she cooks.
Before long, the dinner was ready, and they sat on the dinning table to eat.
"I will eat well", ES said before starting. Meanwhile, CYD has already dug in.
"Shouldn't you say something before eating?"
"Hmm? oh? this taste waaaay better than last time." CYD teased.
"Never mind". ES said in fake annoyance, while satisfied at how well he is eating.
They ate quietly before CYD broke the silence.
"Eun-sang, let's date".
ES choked on her food, before she dranked hurriedly from the glass of water that YD had hand to her.
After coughing for awhile, ES spoke " what?!".
"Why? Do you hate me?" Smiling, CYD questioned in his usual calm arrogance.
"Ya! Choi Young-do, this is not funny. Do you want to kill me?"
"Why do you always think I am joking?" YD asked in calmness, but the usual smirk had slowly melted away from his face.
"W-well, ahem, um y-you've never told me that you l-liked me", ES's voice slowly falter into a soft whispered at the end.
CYD looked at ES for a while in silence, seeing how flustered and embarrassed she started to become he smile softly to himself.
"Listen carefully. Cha Eun Sang, I, Choi Young Do loves you".
His confession was as always, clean and straight to the point.
Gulping, ES realized that he was serious about it. Nerves and butterflies got the better of her, as she stumbled over her words.
"…B-but your dad, and your a-arranged marriage m-meeting-" ES mind raced over thoughts of his father.
"Let's not think about that right now, can we? Do you Cha Eun-sang love me-actually, Do you like me?"
"M-me?" ES stuttered uncontrollably as she can feel the heat rise in her cheeks.
"Yes. You"
YD started to get out of his chair, as ES was busy stuttering incoherent words.
YD leaned forward, and as ES raised her head, he hovered closely to her lips before asking "May I?"
ES stared wide-eyed as she answered in incoherence "whh-?"
Without waiting for her clear reply, YD leaned forward as he took her lips with his. The kiss quickly turned passionate, as YD's hand caressed ES's cheek while the other hand brought her into a deeper kiss.
ES was soon out of breath and wanted to push away to breathe. Finally, CYD gave in and released her from the kiss.
ES was flushed from the heat, and could only stared at YD with a dazed and surprised expression as he gave her a soft caress on her cheeks before smirking.
"I'm going to be nice to you just this once, so don't make me wait. Thanks for dinner". He said with a cheeky smirk before leaning forward with a short kiss.
ES could only stare with wide eyes at his retreating figure before slowly getting up to clean the dishes.
YD sat in front of his computer bored. He glanced at his phone again, and with a sigh went back to his work.
"Please, just call her already!" MS exasperated comment left YD smirking. YD has been staring at his phone for at least twenty times since the last hour.
"I can't, this time she will have to come to me," CYD said calmly looking at his phone.
"Ah really? Are we going back to push and pull 101?" MS joked.
"Nope, but have you looked at the stocks yet?" Not wanting to dwell on the topic that has been frustrating him, he changed the topic.
"Why? did my stocks fell?!"
"Uhn."
MS hurriedly checked his monitor before glaring at his friend at his lie. "Aish! Do you think this joke is funny?!"
CYD smirked before going back to work.
"Ah really, a bully will always be a bully", MS commented quietly before going back to his monitor.
The phone rang continuously before CYD stomped out of from his showered, still wet and undressed.
Thinking that it was another advertisement call. He was about to take out his batteries before seeing the caller id 'Cha eun-sang'.
He solemn face quickly spread into a smile, "ah, you finally called".
"Eun-sang, it so nice to finally hear from you", YD said with as his usual arrogance.
"Young-do, can you open the door?"
YD looked down at his state, and smiled before saying, "of course".
ES stared wide-eye at YD, before stuttering, "Ya! Choi Young do, why are you not dress?"
"Didn't you ask me to open the door?"
"Y-yes, b-but you should have dressed first". ES said as she covered her eyes with her hands.
"Why? its not like you haven't seen me like this before".
"Th-that's different! That w-was back then, and this is n-now".
"How is this different then before?"
"Y-you, I-I-"
"You-what?" YD said leaning closer to her.
ES uncovered her eyes and screamed before falling backwards.
YD quickly grabbed hold of her arms, so she doesn't fall and pulled her towards him.
"Y-ya, w-what are you doing?" ES nervously said, her hands on his chest trying hard to pull away.
YD stared wordlessly at her, before pulling her into the apartment and trapping her against the closed door.
Eyes locked, and their lips just hovering above each other, he whispered to her.
"So, will I like your answer?"
