Dae Ju opened his eyes and found himself on his bed.
"Ah! That was a good dream!" he sat down as his stomach was aching and he has to go to the washroom.
"I drank too much! I have to pee." he was sleepy yet so he didn't notice around him. The window was closed but warm sunlight was coming through the glass of the window. His head was aching like crazy. He wanted to sleep more but he has to go to the washroom so he sat well and nearly stood up. He removed the blanket from himself and found him without clothes.
"What! What is this?" he got shocked. He put his hand on the bed and felt something.
"Is that a pillow? Please, please someone tell me this is a pillow!" he was scared as he assumed what it was. He removed the blanket from that and found the very unexpected thing. Lina was sleeping peacefully. She also has no clothes on her. Dae Ju finds out the reality and gulped as he got afraid.
"No! No! It can't be! I am dreaming!" he was talking to himself being afraid. He pinched his cheek and as he got hurt he screamed.
"Ouch! It's not dream!" By hearing him, Lina nearly opened her eyes. Dae Ju didn't want to be noticed by her so he jumped on the bed and acted like he was sleeping yet. As as he expected, she woke up within a few minutes and sat down. Dae Ju was watching her though his eyes were half-closed. She sat down so her yellow mixed white-skinned back was visible. It was whiter than her face or hand. She has a big mole near her waist. But it was looking very beautiful. Seems like someone painted it on her waist. She was finding her clothes which were fallen on the ground. She bends down to take them and that time Dae Ju saw the very unexpected things and he closed both eyes because he doesn't want to watch more. When he peeked to check if she was there or not, he saw her being dressed. After that, she went to the cupboard and took some clothes from Dae Ju, and kept them on the bed beside him. She takes a look at him and smiled. She put the blanket on him nicely. Dae Ju wanted to look at her but he can't do eye contact right now as he was too embarrassed. So he remains closing his eyes and to wait for her to leave. After that, she turned off the air conditioner and opened the window, and let the natural wind came inside. Dae Ju couldn't resist anymore as his stomach was hurting badly.
"Please, leave! Please, please leave from here!" he was praying in his mind badly. And maybe his pray has been accepted and she went outside. It was very morning and Lina used to wake up this time. As she has to do many works she left there. After she left from there Dae Ju stood up directly and put the clothes which Lina kept beside him a while ago. Then he hurried up and went to the washroom. He was feeling dizzy yet. He wanted to understand if it was really a dream or not. He pinched on his hand one more time and as before he got hurt. He took his toothbrush and applied toothpaste to it. He put it in his mouth and looked at the mirror.
"This is not who I am! How can I? Ah! I mean, I know I love her but isn't it too much? It was okay until the kiss. But having...Aish! I am doomed!" he was thinking while brushing his teeth. His mouth became full by the white foam. But he still kept looking at the mirror.
"No! I didn't do right! How! How can I face her now? Aish! What should I do now?" he was feeling nervous. He tried to remember what happened last night. Then he remembered everything. Everything that he did last night. His craziness, the true friend who was consoling him. He also remembered the soft touch, those amazing moments, those amazing feelings. He was lost in those moments. He was feeling great. He never could imagine he would do something like that. He came out after finished brushing and sat on the bed again. He was feeling dizzy and his head was hurting though it was an amazing feeling because of those sweet moments of the previous night. But when he realized Lina was unaware of who he was, he felt disappointed. It would be nice if she knew about the truth.
When he was lost in his thoughts, Lina entered inside the room. She has a plate in her hand. There were some orange pieces on that plate.
"You woke up?" she smiled and came to him. Her face was turning red when she tried to look at him. Dae Ju was also embarrassed so both of them were quiet. Dae Ju nods his head and said he woke up.
"Eat them. It will help you to reduce your headache." she kept the plate in front of him and said gently.
"How did you know that I have a headache?" Dae Ju was surprised and looked at her. But he couldn't stay looking at her red face because of embarrassment.
"I have a feeling. After what you did last night. It's possible to have a headache after drinking that much alcohol." she said very gently and it could be understandable that she also couldn't make eye contact with him.
"About last night..." Dae Ju wanted to say something but he stopped because he didn't know how he has to say that.
"Hmm?" Lina looked at him and their eyes met finally. Both of them turned red like a tomato. They looked another way to avoid the eyes of each other.
'I don't know what I did. But whatever I did, I am sorry." he pretends that he forgot everything but wise people could catch him easily and Lina also get that.
"It can't be forgivable." she smiled being shy and said.
"What?" Dae Ju looked at her and saw her smiling. This was the most beautiful smile of her that he has ever seen before. But it can be understandable that she doesn't have any complaint against him. Dae Ju also got shy and smiled.
"Um-hm! Now eat them. I will go and make some tea for you." clearing her throat she said to change the topic.
"Okay," Dae Ju nods his head gently and took one piece of orange. Lina went away happily. When she went away, Dae Ju stood up and screamed out of joy. Though his voice was very low, he put his hand on his mouth and pressed his mouth so that she can't hear him. But he was so happy that he forgot what he was doing.
"This is the happiest day in my life!" he said while smiling. He wanted to scream to the whole world. He forgot why he was so sad that forced him to drink the previous night. But he is now realizing that if he didn't drink, things wouldn't be fixed and they would have to still live in pain.
"What? You haven't finished yet?" Lina came with tea and asked.
"No, I was going to eat." Dae Ju was going back to his seat. And within a few minutes, he finished all the oranges like a very obedient kid.
"I have to go. Drink it. I will come back to take the cup." saying this she wanted to go.
"Ah! It's really refreshing!" Dae Ju said and looked at Lina. Lina was leaving but she stopped and turned back.
"Though it was useful, you broke your promise," Lina said and looked at him with suspicious eyes. Dae Ju understands why she was saying that.
"I was depressed so I couldn't help but drink it." Dae Ju said with a low voice and looked down. Lina understood why he was depressed so she didn't say much and move on. It was a very beautiful and happy morning for Dae Ju. So, he forgot what he should do. That time his phone starts ringing and he picked up his phone.
"Hello!" he responded.
"Hello! Rumi-sshi!" Mr. Park was on the other side.
"Yes," he replied.
"Please come to the police station. We need your statement. So please hurry up." Mr. Park said and hung up the call.
"What kind of statement?....Hello! Hello!" Dae Ju wanted to know but before that Mr. Park hung up the call.
"Aish! It was a nice morning but he ruined my mood!" Dae Ju said and stood up. He felt that his headache was reducing after eating the oranges.
"She has a good knowledge in everything!" he praised her in his mind and went downstairs. Lina was cleaning the floor so the floor was wet.
"Hey! Watch out! You can fall! Why you came here? You should've called me if you need something!" Seeing Dae Ju coming down while running, she told him to be careful.
"Ah! I am sorry but I need to go now." Dae Ju said but he slowed down while coming down.
"Why? Where? I heard you were starving! So, I can't let you go if you don't have your breakfast!" Lina put her stick which she was using to clean down and came to him.
"Food is getting ready. Wait just a little bit more. I will bring them." saying this she turned back to go to the kitchen. Dae Ju was feeling happy because she was caring for him. But he needs to go now and he knows how to convince her.
"Listen, I will come soon. Don't worry. I am fine!" he holds her hand while saying this to stop her.
"But..." she wants to say more but before she could say anything, Dae Ju pulled her to him and kisses her once more.
"Please, understand. I have to go," he told her and went to the door. Lina got another shock as she didn't expect something like this so she was standing there silently. Dae Ju went outside while saying he will come back soon. But she was standing as if she was in her dream. Dae Ju was in a very good mood so he came to the police station putting a wide smile on his face.
"Hello!" he greeted Mr. Park and bowed to him.
"Hello! Are you okay now? Can you talk or you will shut your mouth like last night?" Mr. Park asked while mocking him.
"No! I was in a bit of a situation." Dae Ju replied with a low voice.
"Seems like you are in good mood! Now, you have to tell what you know, what you saw, what you heard, and what you find out against the chairman. I am gonna record them so please say what you really know. Okay?" Mr. Park said and out a recording device in front of him.
Dae Ju started to tell what he knows and what he remembered. Mr. Park was recording everything as more evidence.
Dae Ju was feeling like he was in a radio show where the MC was Mr. Park and he was the chief guest. After finished recording, Dae Ju felt curious so he asked,
"Where you are gonna use my voice?"
"None of your business!" Detective Park was very calm while saying the cold words.
"Ei! C'mon! You are going to present them in the court, right?" Dae Ju laughed and asked.
"So you know! Then why you are asking me?" He said but he didn't shout as he was busy working.
"Just because." Dae Ju smiled.
"You can go. And you should go to your office directly. I will be there with more officers soon." Mr. Park said and take a look at him with his cold eyes.
"No, I can't go there with this outfit. I need to change first." Dae Ju said and showed his outfit but Mr. Park has no time for looking at him.
"Then go! I didn't lock you up! Hurry!" He said by looking at him then he concentrates on his work again.
