"Hellooooo! Isn't life beautiful? It sure is... hihi" Ah Reum greeted them with a melody as he arrived for work.
"Did something happen? You're happier than usual!" Ha Neul asked.
"Is it? I think so lol" Ah Reum joked with a mischievous expression.
"What happened?" So Hee, the most curious, asked.
"On graduation day, on graduation day I'll tell you haha" Ah Reum replied.
"Oh no!" Ha Neul said angrily, then adjusted his speech. "I mean, you started it, so finish it..."
Ah Reum laughed and exclaimed: "I see I have two curious friends, I'll think about telling you now haha"
Jin Young laughed as he watched her practically dance for joy as she chatted with her friends. He had promised to see her only in the evening, but he couldn't bear it. He came running to see her.
Ah Reum looked up at the transparent windows of the Patisserie and there was Jin Young. When the lovers' eyes met, their hearts beat uncontrollably. This was their first meeting since they had started dating and, instantly, Ah Reum's cheeks turned red and a bright smile appeared on both their faces. She immediately went to talk to him.
"What are you doing here? I thought I'd only see you at night...hihi well, tell me what you'd like to order, my dear customer?" Ah Reum asked with a mischievous smile.
"Girlfriend, I needed to see my girlfriend! I couldn't wait until the evening! It would be nice if she could sit next to me now..." Jin Young said flirtatiously, making a sad face and then letting a smile slip out of the corner of his mouth.
Ah Reum still tried to disguise his joy at being at work, while Jin Young had no disguise. He wanted to shout to let everyone know that they were finally together.
So Hee watched this sweet exchange and, what do you know, managed to read what he had just said.
"What was that?" thought So Hee, surprised and happy. "Girlfriend?" She said out loud with wide eyes.
Ha Neul was a little startled and automatically turned her gaze to her, also wide-eyed with surprise.
So Hee returned his gaze for Ha Neul, elated, and said: "He said girlfriend, I'm sure!"
Somehow Ha Neul found herself slightly uncomfortable, but remained apparently normal.
Ah Reum had barely caught up with them when she returned and was already being interrogated.
"Are you two dating?" So Hee, fueled by curiosity, fired the question.
"How did you find out?" Exclaimed Ah Reum startled and playfully.
So Hee chuckled before teasingly responding: "Love didn't let you see; you couldn't be more indiscreet and I could understand when he called you my girlfriend hihi"
"Waaa...Kim So Hee, you really don't miss anything! Okay! I assume, I'm guilty lol" Ah Reum confirmed with a happy and flirtatious smile. "Now you know!!!"
.Ah Reum's eyes radiated a glow that once again confirmed the boundless love she could no longer hide.
"Congratulations on your relationship!" Ha Neul said sincerely, feeling the emotions reflected in Ah Reum's eyes, the warm glow of love.
"Congratulations, girlfriend! You'll tell us how it went, won't you? I didn't think he'd be so quick, you know we helped, right? hihi" commented So Hee, with a mischievous smile.
"All I can say is... I could die of happiness, but I want to live, live with him!!!" Ah Reum declared, with a warm smile on her lips.
His words once again created a dimension in which only the two of them existed, wrapped in love. Ah Reum laughed happily at the thought, but quickly realized her audience and blushed with embarrassment.
"The butterflies and their friends who live in my belly were going crazy like never before, lmao" Ah Reum joked playfully and foolishly.
"LMAO" So Hee was unable to contain her laughter.
"Why am I laughing at this too? lol," Ha Neul chuckled softly, seamlessly joining her friends in savoring the humor of this rather peculiar joke.
Leaving your brief visit to Patisserie, Jin Young headed to the agency, needing to address some matters there.
On his way to the president's office, he exchanged greetings with seniors and fellow trainees, creating a sense of camaraderie. Upon arrival, stepping into the president's office, he was pleasantly surprised.
"Uh, you're here too, hyung!" Jin Young exclaimed upon spotting Lee Ga Eun, Action Entertainment's renowned actor and his best friend.
"Look if it isn't my little brother. You know my schedule was packed, right? We haven't been out for a while, so before filming, we're going somewhere nice!" Ga Eun said, expressing his happiness at seeing Jin Young.
"Filming? Oh, so you already know? Hehe, Your little brother is finally going to make his debut!" Jin Young enthused.
"Don't forget that you promised to become more famous than me, so don't let me down!" Ga Eun joked.
Jin Young chuckled, replying: "A man's promise shouldn't be broken so easily, should it? Wait a minute! But bro, I don't think I'll be able to go out with you hihi" he concluded with a flirtatious smile.
"What? How long has it been since we last saw each other? Have you already been in trouble? hehe" Ga Eun asked with a wry smile.
"Am I invisible to you?" President Kim Yun Jin asked, injecting a touch of humor into the room.
The three friends started laughing.
"Hi hyung, I mean hello Mr. President! I've come to talk to you about this..." Jin Young began, bridging the gap between formal and informal.
"Hmmm, it looks like you've really gotten yourself into trouble, haven't you?" Ga Eun commented, with a hint of amusement in her tone. "I'm going, hyung, don't mistreat him too much hehe. Little brother, I'll call you later." Ga Eun concluded before leaving.
The dynamic between these three individuals is interesting and beautiful. Six years ago, the president discovered Ga Eun in a theater, recognizing her potential for stardom. Offering him a contract before anyone else, Yun Jin demonstrou sua rápida percepção de que, dado o nível de talento, era apenas questão de tempo até que alguém o fizesse.
The president's intuition proved correct. Ga Eun's stellar performances catapulted him to the pinnacle of success, making him one of South Korea's most decorated actors and elevating Action Entertainment to new heights. The company has earned the nickname "Action Diamond" for constantly unearthing the best talent, akin to finding precious diamonds in the world of acting, accompanied by their surreal beauty - a veritable diamond mine!
Yun Jin has been a kind of mentor to Ga Eun since he joined Action Entertainment, creating a genuine bond of friendship. Interestingly, Ga Eun's meeting with Jin Young mirrored his own meeting with Yun Jin.
During a visit to his old university in New York, Ga Eun saw a performing arts student who radiated brilliance on stage, expressing himself perfectly. The boy, coincidentally of the same nationality, caught Ga Eun's eye and he concluded that fate had led him there. Unable to pass up this diamond, Ga Eun immediately called Yun Jin, asking him to come to New York.
Yun Jin's reaction to seeing Jin Young was similar to Ga Eun's, and also resembled his own expression when he saw Ga Eun on stage for the first time. It was like revisiting a past moment in a deep déjà vu.
As a student, Jin Young was surprised when Ga Eun introduced himself, because due to his admiration for him as an actor, he knew him well. Ga Eun's offer and the revelation that Ga Eun saw a reflection of himself in him brought Jin Young boundless satisfaction.
Since that fateful day, the trio have cultivated a sincere friendship. Ga Eun genuinely considers Jin Young his younger brother and, reciprocally, Jin Young has him as his real older brother, Yun Jin would be like a father figure in this unique bond.
