Chapter 22

“I want Mr. Kim and Ms Hwangbo to promote Choi Furnitures here in Hongkong.” Mrs Song uttered with conviction.

Hyunjoong and Hwangbo was stunned and good thing Atty.Park was able to react quickly.

“Mrs.Song, I’ll discuss this with Mr.Kim and Ms.Hwangbo since they also need to check this with their management.

“Mrs.Song, Hyejung and I will talk it over. We’ll inform Atty.Park once we decide on this matter.”Hyunjoong added.

“I hope it’ll not take long. I’m really interested in this business and I know getting you two as endorsers will really make a big difference.” Mrs. Song replied.

“We’ll let you know immediately.”Hyejung confirmed.

With that the couple excused themselves and went back to their table. Atty Park and the Songs continue with the dinner as well. After about thirty minutes the lawyer went to their table to bid goodbye.

“Baby, what do you think? Should we agree with Mrs. Song’s request?” Hyunjoong asked as they were on their way home.

“It’s no big deal for me babe. I don’t have any endorsement or contract after Muhan Girls ended. It’s also convenient for me if we have to shoot here. It’s you we have to think of. I’m not sure if Key east will agree with this specially if we have to be together.” Hyejung replied.

“I’ll check with Atty Park if he can show us the offer for the Songs so I can discuss it with Yong Joon Hyung as soon as I arrived in Korea.”Hyunjoong advised.

“Want me to call him now babe?” Hyejung offered.

“I’ll do it. Can I borrow your phone, baby?” Hyunjoong asked and she handed the phone to him. His call was immediately answered by Atty Park he informed that he will just see them the next day.

As soon as they arrived at Hyejung’s apartment, Hyunjoong pulled her for an embrace.

“I miss you so much, baby.” He uttered and pepper kissed Hyejung’s face.

“I miss you too, love. Come on, let me just take a shower so we can sleep, okay.”Hyejung replied ending the kiss.

“Are we just going to sleep?” Hyunjoong jibed as he snaked his arms on her waist.

“If that what you want, babe. But if you have other things in mind, be a good boy and wait for me in our room.” She answered with a grin.

Hyunjoong grab her arm and together they head to the bedroom. He then gently pushed Hyejung towards the restroom and then took a seat on the bed

“Hurry up, baby. I’ll wait for you.” Hyunjoong replied with a grin.

Hyejung chuckled before closing the restroom’s door for a quick shower.

The next day, Hyejung woke up with Hyunjoong’s gentle breathing on her neck. He was spooned behind her- with arm resting on her waist and a leg draped on top of hers. She cautiously turned to face him and smiled to see him still sleeping peacefully. Hyejung lightly run her finger on his nose which made Hyunjoong stir a bit. Then she dropped a peck on his lips, extricates his arm and leg from her and then climbed off the bed. She shivered as the cold wind touched her bare body so she immediately wrapped 

herself in a terry robe before heading to the shower.

At around nine in the morning Hyunjoong came out of the bedroom all fresh from shower. Hyejung was preparing their breakfast so he walked towards her and gave her a morning kiss.

“Good morning, babe. You’re just in time for breakfast. I was about to wake you up when you came out.” Hyejung greeted with a smile.

“Good morning baby. Sorry I woke up late. You wore me out last night.” Hyunjoong joked and Hyejung gently swat his arms.

“Babe, Atty.Park called about ten minutes ago. He’ll be dropping by at around eleven. Do you still wanna go out or we’ll just rest here and wait for him?” Hyejung enquired.

“Let’s just stay here, baby. I’ll be going home tonight so let’s just rest.” Hyunjoong answered.

The two enjoyed their breakfast and after cleaning up they just decided to watch a movie. They cuddled on the couch and watched-Thor.

As expected Atty.Myungsoo Park arrived at around eleven in the morning. Hyejung ushered him in and let him took a seat.

“ Atty.Park, good morning. Sorry for calling you immediately. You see, I’m going back tonight in Korea and I would like to know the offer we have for the Songs.” Hyunjoong started the discussion.

“Its okay, Hyunjoong-ssi. I actually would like to apologize for putting you in difficult situation. You see, Uncle Mirin and I offered this venture with the Songs two years ago.But since Uncle became sick and the Songs travelled to US; the plan was put on hold. When I called them this year, they express their interest in the business so I came here again. Uncle Mirin and I believe that once we close this deal for Hong Kong, it’ll be easier for us to export in other Asian countries too. Here’s a copy of the offer we have for them.” Myungsoo explained.

“So this deal is very important. I can talk to my manager and agency. I’m sure there will be no conflict. As of now, we just have to talk to Hyunjoong’s management team.” Hyejung said.

“I’ll explain to my manager. I’m sure we can work things out.” Hyunjoong replied.

“I’m really sorry for involving you in this. If just incase your agency will not allow, I’ll try to talk to the Songs’. We’ll check other options.” Myungsoo offered.

“Choi Galleries is also important to us. We also want to give back to Mirin-ssi for everything he has given us. I’ll do my best to get the approval from my agency.” Hyunjoong countered.

“Thank you, Hyunjoon-ssi, Hyejung-ssi. I know Uncle Mirin will be glad if we really close this deal. Let me know if you need any help. I’ll leave for now.” And he stood up to leave.

“We’ll call you as soon as possible, Myungsoo-ssi. Take care on your way.” Hyejung bid goodbye and send him to the door.

“Baby, you realize that we might need to announce that we’re together once we accept this offer, right?” Hyunjoong asked as Hyejung settled beside him.

“Yes.” Hyejung quipped.

“Are you okay with it, baby? I mean you’ve been telling me to just keep it as a secret for the meantime.” He tried to confirm.

“Yes. I’m good with it. As you said to Myungsoo-ssi, this is one way of giving back to Mirin-ssi. He has given us a lot- and most especially he has paved the way for us to be together again. “Hyejung explained.

Hyunjoong pulled her in his embrace and whispered.

“I’ll talk to my agency baby. I really wish we can get their approval. I will also tell them that we will announce about our relationship.”

“I’m sorry if I can’t be there to support you.” Hyejung uttered.

“It’s okay, baby. Don’t worry too much. I’ll call you as soon as I get their decision. I know it’ll be favorable for us.” He replied.

Hyejung snuggled to him and they enjoy the rest of the day before Hyunjoong’s flight back to Korea.

It was already Wednesday evening when Hyunjoong finally got the chance to call Hyejung. He’s been very busy the past two days but he was able to talk to Key East about the offer for Choi Galleries. The company is against it- stating that it can hamper the success of Hyunjoong’s career. If people will link him to Hwangbo, his fans might give up and leave him. He immediately called Hwangbo and let her know of the company’s decision.

“Hi Baby. How are you?” He greeted as soon as Hyejung picked up the call.

“I’m okay babe. Also busy with school. How about you?” Hyejung replied.

“I’m good. Baby, I already got my agency’s approval.” He said.

“That’s great babe! But why do you sound unhappy?” She enquired nervously.

“Baby, there’s a provision in my agreement with Key East. They only agreed with endorsing Choi Gallery but we need to put on hold our plans for coming out in public.” Hyunjoong explained.

Hyejung took a deep sigh before replying.

“Babe, don’t worry. I’m okay with it. And they didn’t say that we cannot come out, they just said to put it on hold. Maybe in a couple of months, they will agree to it.” Hyejung tried to cheer him up.

“But it seems like I’m letting you down baby. I really tried. They told me that they will just check if my fans will accept us. If our endorsement will not affect my career, then we can announce it.” he advised feeling very resigned.

“Don’t worry babe. I understand. I know you’ve done your best. Let’s just pray that we’ll get good feedback with this endorsement.” She replied

“I love you, Hyejung-ah. I miss you.” Hyunjoong whispered.

“I love you too; babe.I’ll see you on Saturday. I’m flying back home.” Hyejung advised.

“Baby, my manager and I will be there in Hong Kong on Friday for the contract signing. Tell Atty. Park to ready all the documents and inform the Songs for contract signing on Saturday if possible.” He countered

“Okay, babe. I’ll just stay here then. I’ll see you on Friday night. I love you babe.” And Hyejung bid goodbye.

After they hung up, Hyejung called Atty. Park to inform him of their decision. On Hyejung’s part, her manager already agreed with the endorsement and will just fly to Hong Kong for the contract signing. She called him as well as agreed for meet up on Saturday.

The next day, Hyejung received a call from Atty Park asking if she can meet him in a café since he need to check some details with her. They agreed to meet up after her class and after checking the documents Atty Park send her to her apartment.

It was Friday morning when Hyunjoong was getting ready for his flight when his manager came rushing with a newspaper in his hand. He crumpled the paper when he saw the picture- Hyejung and Myungsoo coming out of the café with the headline…

“Is he Hwangbo’s current man?”

Hot Choco Christmas

Merry Christmas Chingus! This is my gift to all of you. This story maybe a cliche' but hope you will still like it. Happy Holidays and enjoy the season with your love ones..

Hot Choco Christmas

Hey, Love!” I greeted as soon as other party picked up the call.

“Hey baby. How are you?” he replied.

“I’m home. I just need to pick up my things before my flight at 3pm. I’ll just see you in our place, okay?” I had spoken.

“My flight’s at a later time but I’ll be home tonight. See you later, Hyejung. I love you” he whispered affectionately

“I love you, too, Hyunjoong. See you later.”  And with that I ended the call.

Hyunjoong and I have been together for four years now. We haven’t admitted it in public but it’s already a common knowledge in our industry. After our stint in We got married, my young make believe groom pursued me and after giving him a hard time-it actually took him six months; I said yes to him. It’s not an easy road but we tried to make things work out. Now he’s busy filming for his new drama while I am studying in Hongkong. I already lie low in show business especially now that Muhan Girls ended. I just came back from Hongkong and I’m heading to our place – in Jeju.

After fixing my bags I head out for an hour drive to the airport. It’s the eve before Christmas and good thing that Hyunjoong got a break for this holiday. Filming will resume by the New Year and I will also head back to Hongkong. I’m almost ten minutes away from the airport when the throbbing in my head worsens. I’ve been feeling unwell since I woke up – but I shrugged it off since I need to fly to Jeju.

 I endure the pain that I’m feeling; I checked in immediately and waited for my flight. The airport’s already packed with tourists on holiday vacation. I chose a secluded spot to wait for boarding and then texted my boyfriend even though I’m not sure if he’ll be able to read it. After about thirty minutes, I heard them call for boarding and follow the stream of people. I slept thru the entire flight and only when the pilot announced our plane’s descend that I woke up.  My whole body’s aching and the throbbing in my head continues. I already called the care taker of our house to fetch me and after fifteen minutes, I saw him pull in. I smiled at him and he assisted me in my entire luggage.

“Good afternoon, Ahjussi. How are you and ahjumma?”  I asked.

 “We’re okay. Hyejung-ssi. We already bought the things you asked and it’s stocked up in the freezer.  “He replied.

“Thank you. Would you mind if I took a nap, ahjussi? Im really sleepy.”  I ruefully asked.

“Go ahead. Are you okay, Hyejung-ssi? You look sick.” He asked back.

“I’ll be okay, Ahjussi. I just need to sleep it off. “ I simply replied.

“Okay then. I’ll wake you up once we arrived.” With that I closed my eyes and let sleep claims me.

“ Hyejung-ssi..We’re here.” Ahjussi gently woke me up.

I unwillingly open my eyes and step out of the car. Ahjumma greeted me and ushered me inside the house.As soon as I stepped in, I was greeted by our two lovely dogs- Art and Matic.  I ruffled their coat and they followed me as I took a seat on the couch. After a few minutes, I saw Jins running and she jumped in my lap. I can’t help but smile and feel at ease now that I’m home. After putting my bags in my room, Ahjussi and ahjumma bid goodbye. I send them off at the front door and was surprised when Ahjumma walk back to me and asked.

“Are you sure you’re okay to be alone here, Hyejung?  Would you like me to accompany you till Hyunjoong arrives? “

“I’ll be okay, ahjumm. I’ll just rest and I’ll be fine later. Don’t worry. Besides, your daughters are expecting you to there in Busan, right? “

She reluctantly nods but not without reminding me to eat and rest so I will be well. I assured her that I’ll do just that and only then did the couple leave.  I went back in the house and began my preparation.

Our home is a two story loft style glass house. Hyunjoong bought this 1000 square meter lot for our second anniversary but only on our third anniversary that he brought me here. The house already finished and fully furnished. You see, Hyunjoong is not the flower and chocolate type of boyfriend. So imagine my surprise when he brought me here and told me that this property is under our name. When he toured me inside the house, he asked if there’s something I wanted to change once we move in. Seeing how meticulously he planned our home- I can never imagine changing anything. From the off-white walls, the cherry oak cabinets, the comfortable white recliner couch and all the fixtures in the house- it all blended so well. We also have a garden where our would be children can play. As of now, this is the playground for our dogs. This house became our secret hide away. Whenever he and I got free time, we always spend it here.

Since its only a day before Christmas, I set up a table top Christmas tree in our living room. I wanted a big tree but since I don’t have much time- I settled with this one. I also asked ahjumma to buy some other ornaments. I started putting the mistletoe and wreaths by the door.  Some Christmas balls and our Christmas stockings also adorned the fireplace. When I’m satisfied with my masterpiece in the living room, I prepared the dining room. I set it somewhat like those in fancy fine-dining restaurant. All I need now is to prepare the food.  Its only quarter past eight so I just toss salad for my dinner. All the other food I will prepare before midnight- hopefully Hyunjoong will be here too so we can celebrate together. When I finished my dinner, I decided to take a shower and fix my luggage. But as soon as I finished taking a bath, I started to get chills and felt so dizzy. I dressed hastily and lay in bed- snuggled in layers of blanket and comforters to let the nausea pass.

Gentle kisses on my face woke me up from deep slumber. I pried my eyes open and surprised to see my Hyunjoong smiling at me.

“Merry Christmas, love.”  He whispered and he leaned for a kiss.

“Merry Christmas babe. I’m sorry I took a nap. What time did you arrive?” I asked as lay beside me.

“Half past ten.” Hyunjoong replied.

“Oh no! I haven’t prepared anything and it’s almost midnight. I’m really sorry baby.”  I immediately sat up and almost bolted off the bed. But Hyunjoong snake his arms on my waist and pull me down to lay beside him.

“It’s okay baby. You’re sick. Let’s stay just like this for a while.”  Hyunjoong tried to calm me down.

“But babe its Christmas. I wanted to prepare something special for you. I’m not sick. I’m okay now.” I replied a bit dejected.

“I know baby but just to be sure you’ll be fine on our vacation, no need to exhaust yourself preparing lots of food. It’s just you and me anyway.” Hyunjoong reasoned out.

“Bu what if?” I rebut but he cut me in.

“No ifs and buts. If we need to cook, I’ll be the one to do it. Right now, baby what I want is for you to bundle up and wait for me in the living room. “He replied firmly and walked out of the bed.

I had no choice but to follow his orders. I grabbed a pink cardigan and another pair of socks before heading out of the room. I’m still a bit dizzy and my tummy’s a bit queasy but I’m feeling better. I head to the living room and smiled when I saw our fireplace already blazing. I sat on the couch, recline it a bit and wait for Hyunjoong.A few minutes later, he walked in with a tray in his hands. He set it in the table and sat beside me. I gingerly sat on his lap and rest my head on his shoulders.

“Are you okay, baby?” he asked as he drop a kiss on my forehead.

“Yes, love. I’m just thinking. We’re together for Christmas and this is the 1^st time for us to celebrate it herein our own home. There’s nothing more I can ask for.” I replied.

“I’m glad that you’re happy baby. Here, I prepared hot Chocó drink and some cookies.” Hyunjoong hand me the mug as soon as I settled beside him.

“I was aiming for a lovely dinner for us. I’ll make it up to you sometime, love.” I assured him as we enjoy our simple snack.

“I’ll look forward to it, baby. For now let’s just enjoy our Hot Chocó christmas, okay?.” He chuckled.

When we’re done, Hyunjoong took back the tray to our kitchen. He then came back with a quilt and lay it near the fireplace. He called out to me so I moved towards him. He guided me to sit in front of him; let me rest my back on his chest as he wrapped his arms around me.

“Merry Christmas, baby.” And he handed me a small box.

“Thank you, love. Can I open it now?” I asked to which he just nodded.

“Let’s make it official, baby. I love you too much and I’d like the world to know it. Will you marry me?”  He sincerely asked as I stare at the diamond ring inside the box. When I met his eyes, I saw the unshed tears so I close the distance between us and drop a peck on his lips.

“I love you, Hyunjoong-ah. It’ll be my pleasure to become your wife.” I replied with all my heart.

Hyunjoong removed the ring from the box and slip it in my left ring finger. He kissed me once again. When we came up for air, I asked him to stay put as I rushed to our room to get his gift.  I sat beside him and gave him his gift.

Like any child on Christmas day, Hyunjoong excitedly open my gift. I watched him with a smile and I can’t believe that his tears fell when he finally saw my surprise.

“This is it, baby? Really?” his voice quiver trying to hold his emotions.

I nod and before I knew it, my tears are falling as well.

“Yes, Love. We’re going to have a baby!” I confirmed.

“This is the best Christmas by far, baby. Thank you.” Hyunjoong uttered before pulling me into his embrace.

“Merry Christmas, love.”  I sincerely replied.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow

after ten years, here you go... to MC Espiritu for u.. belated birthday update

Chapter 21

It’s already late in the afternoon when the couple woke up. Hyejung decided to just call in to order food and then took a quick shower. When she finished, she found Hyunjoong just getting off the bed.

“Hi Baby! What time is it?” Hyunjoong asked as he walks towards Hyejung. As soon as he reached her, he dropped a quick kiss on her lips.

“Quarter past four. I already called and order Chinese food. Had a nice sleep, babe? Go and take a shower so we can eat.” Hyejung replied affectionately.

“It was indeed a good sleep coz I am with to you. “  And again he stole a kiss from her. Hyejung swatted his arms and he playfully hugs her to block her hit. He then grabs a towel and head to the shower.

When Hyujoong was comfortably dressed, Hyejung was already done preparing their food. They ate while chatting and teasing each other.

“Babe, I will have to go to the university tomorrow. Will you be alright staying her alone?” Hyejung ask when they were sitting comfortably in the couch. She was snuggled beside Hyunjoong and his arms are draped around her.

“Of course, I’ll be fine here. Don’t worry baby, I’ll just watch some drama, read my mangas and wait for you patiently." Hyunjoong assured her.

“Alright. I’ll also ask around if there’s a place we can go to in the evening. Maybe I’ll ask the directress. We just have to ensure that it will be safe enough and no paparazzi.” she replied.

“I’m not really afraid for reporters to see us. It’s okay for me to let people know that we are together.” He countered.

“In time, babe, we’ll get there. Let’s just enjoy what we have just between the two of us.”  Hyejung stated. Hyunjoong just nodded and she snuggled even more.

The next day, Hyejung left the apartment at around eight in the morning. Hyunjoong was still asleep so she just dropped a peck on his lips and left a note on the dresser. She went to class and actually enjoyed her 1^st day in the university.

She was walking on the way home when she met the directress. She smiled at her and the woman greeted her back.

“How was your fist day, Ms.Hwangbo?” Fei asked.

“It was fun. I really enjoyed it. Are you on your way home too, Ms. Chung?”  She asked back.

“Just call me Fei, Hyejung. I’m just a few years older than you.” The woman advised her.  “Yes I’m on my way home. My apartment is just a few block away. You know Royal Suites? “

“Yes. That’s were I’m staying too. Let’s just walk together then. “Hwangbo replied with glee.

“Sure! Let’s go!” and they chatted on the way to the apartment.

Hyejung was so excited to see her boyfriend. It’s only a few hours ago but knowing that he’s waiting for her made her miss him. 

“Welcome home baby.”   Hyunjoong who was already waiting by the door greeted her. Hyejung walked towards him and give him a kiss. Just then Hyunjoong handed her a big bouquet of yellow tulips.

“Congratulations on your 1^st day in the university baby. I’m so proud of you.”

“Thank you, babe. Thank you for understanding and for being here to support me.” Hyejung fondly embraced her boyfriend once again.

Hyunjoong gently tugged her arms and led her to the living room. There in the coffee table was a simple feast. A fancy looking cake was in the centre of, a bottle of wine, a platter of Carbonara and blocks of cheese.

“Let’s have dinner now, baby. “ Hyunjoong said and began serving her food.

They cuddled in the sofa after dinner. Hyejung snuggled comfortably to Hyunjoong, his arms around her as they watched TV. After about an hour, the couple decided to head to bed since Hyejung have an early class.

Time passed by so fast. For the past days, Hyunjoong stayed home while Hyejung went to school. Although they managed to have dinner date one night- Fei suggested the high end restaurant, most of the time, they just enjoyed their time at the home. It’s already Saturday now and the couple will now head back to Korea. Hyejung will have to go back to Hongkong alone by Sunday night. As soon as they touch down, Hyunjoong send her to the location shoot of Muhan Girls. Even though she’s tired she still joined the group in the activities as she promised. It was already ten in the evening when the shoot finished and her manager drove her home.

Not even bothering to turn on the lights in her living room, she dropped her tired body in the couch. She was trying to look for a comfortable position when her bedroom door opens - her Hyunjoong clad only in boxers greeted her. He walks towards her slowly and lifter her into his arms. Hyejung laced her arms on his neck and Hyunjoong dropped a kiss on her lips.

“Welcome home baby. There’s a warm bath waiting with your name on it.” He greeted with a smile.

“It seems surreal. To find you waiting with that smile and welcoming me home. It’s almost like a dream. I want to pinch myself just to be sure that its reality.” Hyejung uttered.

“Don’t worry, baby. It’s all true.  I’m here and you’re in my arms. Now, let me help you get off these clothes so you can enjoy your bath and I’ll bring you dinner, okay.” Hyunjoong replied. 

As soon as Hyejung settled in the tub with aromatic scent, Hyunjoong head out. He came back after about fifteen minutes with a steaming bowl of stew, a bottle of wine and wine glass. He then feed his girlfriend who’s still soaking in the tub. He gave her wine and when the bath water turns cold, he assisted her out.  They head to the bedroom and Hyunjoong tucked her in before cleaning up the dishes. Hyunjoong took a shower after and then turn in for the night. He just dropped a kiss on Hyejung’s lips and then spooned behind her who was already in deep slumber.

As promised to her parents, the couple went to visit them. Hyejung had a late evening flight so they had dinner first before Hyunjoong sent her to the airport. Just like the 1^st time she left for Hongkong, they had to say their goodbye in the car since people might spot them. Hyejung unlatched her seatbelt before turning to Hyunjoong and pulled him for a kiss.

“I’ll miss you babe. I’ll be home as soon as possible.” Hyejung uttered trying not to be too sad.

“I’ll miss you more, baby. Call me as soon as you arrived. Study hard but don’t forget to take care of yourself. I love you, baby.”  Hyunjoong replied.

Hyejung kissed him again before she reached for her bag in the backseat and got out of the car heavy hearted. She waved him goodbye before heading inside the airport. She checked in immediately and waited for her flight. Just as she took a seat she felt her phone vibrate so she checked the message. Hyejung can’t help but smile as she read her boyfriend’s message

“Im already missing you, baby. Can’t wait for Saturday. I love you.”

“I love you too, babe. Take care while I’m away." She sent her reply.

It’s been two months now that Hyejung started schooling in Hongkong. She was able to adjust quickly and even if she cannot be with Hyunjoong most of the time, their relationship stays strong. Hyunjoong ‘s schedule is also packed but he requested from his management to be free every weekend so he can spend time with Hyejung if she’s in Korea.  Hyejung always call him before going to school and before she sleeps at night. But this weekend, she cannot go back home. She’s going to have an exam the coming week and she needs to finish a project with her classmates. Hyejung already called her manager to inform that she cannot attend Muhan Girl’s shooting. She also informed her mother and now she’s about to call Hyunjoong.

“Hi baby. How are you?” Hyunjoong greeted as soon as he picked up the phone.

“Hi Babe. I’m okay. How about you?” She replied.

“I’m good. I can’t wait to see you. I miss you.” he sincerely answered.

“Babe, I’m sorry but I can’t go back home this Saturday. I need to finish a project with my classmates and prepare for an exam.” Hyejung informed.

“Really baby? I was looking forward to seeing you. Can you not finish the project before Saturday?” Hyunjoong tried to coaxed  her to come home.

“We don’t have enough time to finish it within this week so weekend’s our only resort. I wanted to go home and see you too. But this is really important for us to pass our subjects.” She explained.

“Ok, then if it really can’t be helped. I just miss you badly.” He conceded.

“I miss you too, babe. Thank you for understanding.” Hyejung took a sigh of relief.

Come Saturday, Hyejung and her schoolmates meet up to finished their project. Fortunately, they were able to discuss and finished by late noon. She head home and decided to just take a nap. She woke up at around seven in the evening and just cooked ramen for dinner. She is preparing her meal when she heard the door bell ring.  A bit confused as to who might be visiting at this hour she checked the intercom and surprised to see who’s on the other side.

“ Hyunjoong-ah!” and she rushed to open the door.

“Surprise, baby!” Hyunjoong greeted and wrapped her in his arms.

“Babe! Come in.” And she tugged him inside the apartment. Hyunjoong placed his duffel bag in the couch and the reached for Hyejung once again. This time she greeted her properly with a kiss.

“Babe, I miss you. Thank you for coming over.” Hyejung uttered as soon as they came up for air.

“I miss you baby. My weekend’s not the same if I can’t spend it with you. So if you can’t come back to Korea; I have to fly here to be with you.” Hyunjoong replied.

“Thank you babe and I’m sorry for the inconvenience.” And she hugged him once again.

“You will never be an inconvenience to me. You are my happy pill and I can’t be away from you for long." And he kissed her nose to tease her.

“Well, then babe. I only have ramen for dinner. Let’s just share that or would you like to have dinner out?” Hyejung asked.

“ Can we have dinner in  Le Petite France?” Hyunjoong asked.

“Alright, babe. I’ll call to reserve a table.” And she reached for her phone but Hyunjoong took it from her.

“I’ll do it, baby. Just go get dress.”

They were able to reserve a table. Hyejung drive them to the restaurant. She was able to acquire a driving license and she is temporarily renting a car of Fei’s brother.  They were ushered to their table as soon as they step in. Hyunjoon then noticed the party on the table next to them.

“Baby, Atty Park is on the other table.” Hyunjoong whispered.

“ Oh,yes. Babe, come on let’s greet them.” Hyejung replied and the couple stood up to greet Atty. Park.

“Good evening, Atty.Park.” Hyunjoong uttered and the couple bowed to greet everyone.

“Kim Hyunjoong-ssi, Hwangbo-ssi, good evening.” Atty. Park greeted back and he stood and introduced them to the other party.

“Let me introduce, Mr and Mrs Song. They’re interested with Choi Furnitures.Mr and Mrs. Song; here are Mr. Kim Hyunjoong and Ms Hwangbo Hyejung- half owners of Choi Furnitures.

The couple greeted them and they were surprised when Mrs. Song said.

“I’m willing to close this deal as soon as we agree on one thing.”

“Go ahead, Mrs. Song. We’ll try to work on it.” Myungsoo replied.

“I want Mr. Kim and Ms Hwangbo to promote Choi Furnitures here in Hongkong.” Mrs Song uttered with conviction.
