“There wasn’t a decisive event. Just… it was a bit difficult time. The situation where things didn’t seem to work out well enough to be in a relationship. Even a slight deviation was tiring…”
Solhee nodded with an understanding expression. People sometimes break up not only because of mistakes but also due to situations and timing.
“But now it’s different from back then.”
“That’s true.”
“If that’s the case, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to meet again. That way, there won’t be lingering feelings or regrets.”
Hearing the words “meet again” in Solhee’s voice, Eunsoo felt a different emotion and couldn’t respond.
Glancing at Eunsoo, who was lost in thought, Solhee murmured.
“It would be interesting to see Yoon Kiwoo kneel down if you handle it well, wouldn’t it…?”
“Huh? What are you saying?”
Solhee casually stabbed her food with a fork.
“Oh, nothing. It’s just something like that.”

“It feels a bit empty.”
Somin looked around the “Bida” studio. A while ago, PD Park and the assistant director came to collect the cameras set up all over “Bida,” exchanged greetings with the staff, and left.
“Yeah, it does. Especially because the CEO and Director An aren’t here…”
Jaerim said, his words trailing off, glancing at Somin. In the short moment their eyes met, Somin glanced away.
Juhan went on a business trip, and Seonkyung contacted Eunsoo early in the morning, saying she caught a cold and would take a day off. Eunsoo was naturally worried, but Jaerim and Somin were not feeling well either.
Sensing the atmosphere, Jaerim quickly spoke.
“But, Director, you really seem disappointed.”
“Huh? Me?”
“Yeah. You seem to miss the CEO so much. How did you manage to endure it before?”
“What nonsense. I don’t have any thoughts. It’s not like he’s going away for a day or two, unexpectedly.”
“Even though you say that, your eyes look a bit moist.”
“Jaerim, are you the one who wants to cry today? Can you make me cry?”
“No, I’m sorry.”
Before he could stay still, the door opened, and the first customer entered. Eunsoo quickly unclenched her fist and smiled.
“Welcome.”
Jaerim approached the customer, and Somin headed downstairs. Eunsoo went up to the office.
“Come to think of it, I’m alone.”
It felt awkward that Seonkyung’s seat was empty. She realized Seonkyung had never been absent on a regular “Bida” day. So, it made her more worried.
“I wonder if she went to the hospital…”
Eunsoo played with her phone. The last message she sent earlier, wishing Seonkyung a speedy recovery, still showed the number 1. Thinking of making a call, she hesitated.
Then she noticed Juhan’s conversation just below. The last message was a brief reply to his message saying he had safely arrived at Copenhagen Airport.
The quiet office today, filled with stray thoughts.
‘I should go down to the workshop; it’s probably there…’
The absence of Juhan somehow didn’t feel real and left a void. Originally, they didn’t often run into each other during working hours.
‘But we’ve been sticking together a bit lately due to the shooting.’
Her consciousness flowed to the airport. The unfamiliar atmosphere peculiar to the airport, whether it was due to the location or the cameras, made her feel a genuine warmth during the hug and…
“Ah, darn!”
Eunsoo lightly tapped her forehead.
The scene that hadn’t left her mind all night flashed again. It was embarrassing and damaged her pride to replay the moments of not a kiss but a short peck multiple times.
Thinking that her expressions captured by the camera would be buried and not easily forgotten, and realizing she had to see her expression at that moment on TV, it was just depressing.
“Enough. I just need to get back to normal.”
Can she really do that?
Suppressing the question emerging from a corner of her heart, Eunsoo prepared to work.
It was after finishing the business at “Bida,” when everyone was about to leave. Eunsoo received a call.
“Wow, CEO? Did you time your call right at the closing time? Geez.”
Seeing Juhan’s name on the screen, Jaerim, who barely managed to catch a glimpse, excitedly headed to the door.
“Answer it quickly. I’ll go first!”
“See you tomorrow.”
When Jaerim and Somin left, “Bida” instantly became quiet. Eunsoo took a shallow breath and answered the phone.
“Hello.”
― Did you finish work?
“I was just about to.”
Denmark is probably having lunch by now. Eunsoo estimated in her mind.
“But why did you call?”
― Must there be a reason to call? We can just talk. Between us.
It sounded like a joke, yet sincere. Unable to get her words out, Eunsoo hesitated. Then Juhan’s voice came again.
― Eunsoo?
“Yeah.”
― I was listening. I thought you’d hang up after I made some nonsense.
Feeling a bit relieved by the clearer mischievousness in Juhan’s voice, Eunsoo’s shoulders relaxed.
Yeah, you can call without a reason. But what did he say at such times?
Trying to hide unnecessary anxiety and open her mouth, Juhan was a bit faster.
― Actually, I did have a reason for calling.
“Oh, uh?”
