The boss visited on Friday. He greeted me with a fuss after purchasing a pizza and was surprised to see my face.?

?

It’s greatly improved, but it’s still not completely in good shape… He was astounded to learn that I didn’t even take a day off. He apologized for not telling the manager that he should have let me rest on my own.?

?

Regardless, the entire company left work at 5 p.m. on the boss’s special order. I decided to wait at Ho-cafe in’s because I had an appointment with Choi Sung-hoon.?

?

“Today… You look great. Where are you going?”?

?

Ho-in complimented me on the clothes I cared for. I dressed nicely rather than warmly because I was going to the Picasso exhibition today.?

?

“Thank you. I decided to meet Sung-hoon ssi today.”?

?

“There is not a day when you don’t meet…”?

?

“Haha, That’s true.”?

?

I drank the citron tea while proudly smiling.  I could drink the tea well even if it was hot because my mouth didn’t swell a lot, but Ho-in purposely made it lukewarm for me.?

?

“What are you doing tomorrow?”?

?

“Um, maybe… Wouldn’t  I just roll around?”?

?

At the hotel.?

?

“If you’re not going anywhere, I… I got a ticket. That…Rembrandt Exhibition.”?

?

“Rembrandt?”?

?

What? Was it a car??

?

“If you have time…together…Would you like to go?”?

?

Ho-in asked very carefully. I’d already refused once, so I was very sorry to refuse again this time.?

?

It was ambiguous to say that it was an appointment because it was not exactly a weekend appointment with Choi Sung-hoon, but because we stayed at a hotel on Friday night and continued. This means that even if Choi Sung-hoon suddenly says he has an appointment on Saturday morning and leaves, he can’t help it. He’s never done anything like that before, but…?

?

“I’m sorry. My previous appointment…”?

?

“Yes… as expected.”?

?

Ho-in nodded as expected. He said brightly that he would sell it to his brother and went back inside.?

?

I was truly sorry. If this occurs again, I should not refuse.?

?

Tomorrow I must spend time with Choi Sung-hoon.?

?

Because I can’t have sex for more than two weeks.?

?

I drank citron tea and sent a message to Choi Sung-hoon.?

?

[I left work early today haha]?

?

[I’ll be at the cafe, so please come slowly]?

?

Choi Sung-hoon? [I’ll leave now] ?

?

The reply came quickly. I took a screen capture and immediately shared it with Won-jo.?

?

[Look at this hahaha]?

?

[Because of the boss I can leave early today]?

?

[It’s only 5 o’clock now hahaha]?

?

After waiting for a while, I got a reply.?

?

Won-jo [Please…]?

?

Won-jo [Stop…]?

?

Won-jo [I’m not curious!!!!!!!!!!!!] ?

?

Oh my. The reaction was already intense. I don’t think I sent it that many times…?

?

I looked through the phone book, but there was no one to brag to except for Won-jo. Ho-in was also a bit… At least Sung-hyun was the only one who couldn’t send a conversation message to his older brother.?

?

There was a lot to brag about these days, but I could only brag to Won-jo and Sung-hyun, so it wasn’t enough. While thinking about it, I remembered Sung-hyun talked about SNS in the past, so I decided to make it.?

?

I quickly downloaded the app and created an ID. First of all, I sent it to Wo-jo and Sung-hyun.?

?

[I made an ID hahaha]?

?

Sung-hyun-i [Ohh, follow me]?

?

I first took a picture of a citron tea and then posted it [I’m going to see Picasso today hehe.] ?

?

Sung-hyun called me right away.?

?

– Hyung, what Picasso??

?

“Picasso is a 20th-century Spanish painter whose works are currently on display in Korea. I’m going to see that.”?

?

– No wonder… He suddenly looked for the director’s contact information.?

?

Sung-hyun said in a tone that seemed to understand.?

?

“What do you mean?”?

?

– It’s nothing. Have a good look and see you on New Year’s Day!?

?

Huh? Why would I see you on New Year’s Day??

?

The phone hung up before I could even ask.?

?

Sung-hyun pressed “Like,” and a heart appeared.?

?

The people I know were not a lot and most of them were my ex-boyfriends and no one else. I sighed. If I get married, I think I’ll hire a guest part-time job.?

?

* * *?

?

Choi Sung-hoon got out of the car wearing a dark navy long coat and a gray muffler. He drew the attention of the people in the cafe once again by holding out a bouquet of flowers. A bouquet of red roses was surrounded by mist flowers.?

?

I took a picture and posted it on SNS after getting in the car, and then I asked Choi Sung-hoon.?

?

“Does Choi Sung-hoon ssi also use SNS?”?

?

“I don’t, but…”?

?

Choi Sung-hoon read my post with serious eyes.?

?

“It’s not good to reveal your destination to an unspecified number of people.”?

?

“It’s okay, I didn’t have any enemies.”?

?

As I dismissed it lightly, Choi Sung-hoon quietly frowned.?

?

“It’s hard to say that you don’t have any enemies… so many of your ex…”?

?

“Yes?”?

?

“…Nothing.”?

?

While I was speaking, he grabbed my chin and kissed me. Nowadays, we kiss passionately without having sex.?

?

“Why did you leave work early today?”?

?

“The boss let us go home early. He’s a good person who always lives young. He cares about me a lot because I’m a recessive Omega. Oh, he’s so cheerful that I keep forgetting that he’s Alpha as well.”?

?

Then, Choi Sung-hoon’s eyes hardened.?

?

“How old is he?”?

?

“I think he is in his mid 50s?”?

?

His expression, which was still not good, became even worse.?

?

“It’s the age you like.”?

?

Oh, cute! Really cute.?

?

I leaned in close to Choi Sung-hoon and gently rubbed his wrinkled brow with my finger.?

?

“Don’t think about it strangely. She’s a married woman with children. My ideal partner is a 196-centimeter-tall man with a scar on his cheek.”?

?

When I said that, his expression softened a little. Choi Sung-hoon put his hand on my armpit and gently lifted me up and placed me on his tight thigh.?

?

I hugged him and rubbed my cheek against the back of his neck, pretending to be cute. A serious, calm, and powerful scent encircled the tip of my nose.?

?

What kind of perfume is this? I’d like to switch to the same perfume that he uses instead of the one that my ex-lover gave me.?

?

We ate at the restaurant before heading to the exhibition hall. The fish dish was served, but I couldn’t eat a lot of it because my stomach hurt. I felt really bad for Choi Seong-hoon, who was sitting in front of me. Choi Sung-hoon seemed to think it was because my mouth had not yet healed.?

?

The exhibition hall was located in Gwanghwamun. Choi Sung-hoon had informed me in advance that the number of people attending would be limited due to the fact that it was a hidden opening outside of the scheduled time.?

?

Actually, there were only about ten people including us. As soon as we entered the hall, they politely greeted Choi Sung-hoon as if everyone knew who he was. I also received a curious gaze and a polite greeting. Some of them were wearing dresses. Even though it’s February, it’s still a cold winter…?

?

We followed after everyone else had entered. Choi Sung-hoon smiled softly when he saw my excitement.?

?

“You seem to be very interested in art.”?

?

“It’s only natural that Picasso is regarded as a representative Spanish painter of the 20th century. Picasso learned to draw from his father, who taught him as a child. His most well-known works include and .”?

?

Choi Sung-hoon looked at me for a moment, as if surprised. I become more excited.?

?

“I like it better because he was an artist who tried an innovatively formative method of looking at the three-dimensional form from a three-dimensional perspective and dismantling and reconstructing it to fit the two-dimensional canvas.”?

?

“…Innovatively formative method…?”?

?

“Yes.”?

?

Of course, I have no idea what that means. It was written that way on the site, but it seemed that Choi Sung-hoon was hearing it for the first time as well. The corners of his lips twitched with delight. It felt good to work hard on my memorization.?

?

“Innovatively…”?

?

Choi Sung-hoon was thinking about something when he pulled out his phone. After a while, he showed me a screen from a portal site where he had searched for Picasso and said,?

?

“This seems to be a typo of ‘innovative’, Seo-yu ssi.”?

?

“…”?

?

“There shouldn’t be any good victims, so I’ll report the typo.”?

?

He pretended to be serious, but a smile crept out of his mouth. It seemed that the previously omitted ‘like you’ could be clearly heard.?

?

My face heated up in an instant.?

?

After looking around and confirming that there was no hole to hide in, I grabbed the muffler around Choi Sung-hoon’s neck with my finger. I was going to hang this on a pillar. Choi Sung-hoon immediately stopped me…
