Chapter 5.

KBR's black car was parked at Siyeon's mansion. Siyeon was about to take off her seat belt to enter the house when SuA did it first, she was surprised when the distance between the two was very close.

From the moment Siyeon sat in the passenger seat next to the driver's seat, she kept sitting there, not sitting in the back seat anymore. But the seat belt, she asked SuA for the first few times, then she could do it herself. Indeed, sadness has made her unconsciously keep her distance from assistant Kim.

- Siyeon, let's go to dinner tomorrow night, I will take you to a place, that place sells delicious food.

- Where is it? - Siyeon replied in a cold tone.

- You’ll know tomorrow.

- Why can't I know now?

SuA paused, Lee Siyeon's defiant attitude confused her. She feels like Siyeon is suspecting her of being a scammer, inviting Siyeon out to eat without saying clearly, is Siyeon really thinking that….?

- Daybreak restaurant, there sells delicious lobster - SuA sighed. She chooses a restaurant that is suitable for a rich and luxurious person like Siyeon, although it is a bit expensive, she still decides to invite Siyeon  to a luxurious meal.

Siyeon narrowed her eyes, the thing she hates the most in this world is shrimp or lobster, those messy looking multi-legged ones, she looks like she wants to get traumatized and she can’t eat. Of course Kim SuA didn't know about this, only the old SuA knew.

She had to go to great lengths to explain herself again, which was something she was too lazy to do. For a long time, she was used to sitting still and letting people find out about her, but never fell into a state of having to go and show herself to others.

- I don't like lobster.

- Oh is that so, then let's go eat chicken, I know there's a good place, there...

- Why not now but tomorrow night? - Siyeon interrupted.

- Hmm… well… now that we’re in front of your house, we can’t go back to the city center to eat and then come back to your house again, the road is very far – SuA was confused.

- You can invite me to eat in my own house.

- You mean order delivery to the house? I am afraid that there is no such service here, you are in the suburbs, around here are very few houses and essential services.

- My house has a chef, you can order what you want to eat and then she will cook it, then you can pay her as usual.

- …………………… is that okay? – SuA is confused, Siyeon's request sounds strange.

- Okay - Siyeon said firmly.

- Well then…then…let's go to your house.

Both of them got off the car and entered Siyeon's large mansion. SuA looked up to cover the entire house, in her heart constantly admiring. She found this house very beautiful from the first day she came here, but when she stepped inside, she felt more overwhelmed, the space was really grand.

- Are you alone here? With a chef?

- The chef only comes here to work, not stay, only I am here - Siyeon said while pressing the button on the phone, she sent an urgent message to Chef Park, calling Park to come here to cook dinner for her. .

Usually the people working for her only come in the afternoon, now it's evening so of course there are no workers here.

- Alone in such a large space, are you lonely?

- If I said I was lonely, would you come and live with me?

SuA froze, Siyeon said a flirty sentence again. She really didn't know what to do, like a symptom without a cure.

- You’ll wait here - Siyeon instructs SuA to sit in the living room and then go upstairs.

She quickly went to lock all the empty bedrooms in her house. The fact that SuA invited her to dinner was something she was informed about in advance. Yoohyeon texted her a few days ago with the following content…..

"If SuA is going to invite you to dinner soon, please give me a raise, my work is all there"

Siyeon still doesn't understand why Yoohyeon made SuA take the initiative to ask her out for dinner. But she quickly forgot, she only focused on what to do when SuA asked, and today is that day.

After only 15 minutes, a young woman appeared, Park Jihyo, Siyeon's 5-star chef. Jihyo's house is also nearby, so if Siyeon calls, she will come very quickly, not to mention Siyeon has promised to Jihyo that if she works overtime, her salary will be doubled. Such a delicious invitation, of course, Jihyo will prioritize working for Siyeon.

When Jihyo arrived, Siyeon also walked down the hall, she introduced Jihyo to SuA and vice versa, Jihyo was 3 years younger than SuA.

After that, Jihyo went to the kitchen to prepare food, and SuA was still standing there in shock.

- She is young but already a 5-star chef, so talented.

- Yes, she cooks very well, you will love it.

SuA felt shy because at first she wanted to invite Siyeon to dinner, but it ended up being like Siyeon was inviting her to dinner. Siyeon just said that SuA doesn't need to invite her anymore, Jihyo will take care of it, a good chef will know what to cook.

While waiting for SuA to walk around the house to visit, Siyeon slowly followed. The two of them gradually walked to the back of the house, where there was a swimming pool and a very beautiful and poetic view out.

- In the morning, the sun will rise there - Siyeon pointed ahead.

- It's so beautiful, it feels like the whole world is only me

- Do you want to see the sunrise here? it will be more beautiful.

- Really?

- It's late anyway, have dinner and sleep here, then get up early tomorrow morning to watch the sunrise.

- ………… - SuA bit her lip hesitantly, Siyeon's suggestion came suddenly, she had no preparation for such requests.

Contrary to her original personality, she is not someone who hesitates.

- This house has a lot of empty rooms, and I will lend you my clothes, although it is a bit large, it will make you comfortable - Siyeon began to state the benefits to convince SuA.

SuA couldn't answer, only smiled wryly, then pretended to be busy looking ahead. She will ignore Siyeon's request as much as possible.

Dinner is done, Jihyo has made 3 dishes, chicken with sauce, sushi and fish cake, there are also 2 large beer cans on the table. The two of them will have dinner right by the pool.

- Do you want a beer? - SuA narrowed her eyes.

- Can't you drink beer? - Siyeon pretended to ask.

- No, I mean last time you drank beer and you looked a bit drunk and tired, so this time I think you shouldn't drink.

- After drinking, I will go to sleep, not go to work, and you’re afraid that I will be tired?

- ……………………. – SuA started admitting one thing, she can't argue with Siyeon on any topic.

- Sit down, let's have dinner.

The two dined under the dim lights in the corner and the light from the swimming pool, plus the moonlight, everything combined like a date of lovers.

- How do you feel?

- The food is so delicious, why don't you invite Jihyo to eat with us - SuA looked around for the chef's figure.

- She's home, she's a 5-star chef, very busy.

- Oh….

- Do you want to eat like this every day?

SuA was taking a sip of beer and almost choked on it, she couldn't get used to Lee Siyeon's flirtatious talk but the face was as innocent as a fly.

 Siyeon handed SuA some napkins and continued to speak, her face still devoid of any prominent emotion.

- Is the house you are living in the city center rented?

- That's right - SuA panted to regain her composure.

- Do you live with anyone?

- No, I’m alone.

- Are you lonely when you’re alone?

- No, I'm busy from morning to night, I don't have time to be lonely, my house is also small, not as big as here, I have no reason to be lonely.

- Do you want to be with someone?

- No, I like being alone, I'm used to it.

Siyeon mused, what SuA just said was the complete opposite of what the old SuA told her.

SuA once said she couldn't stand being alone.

She once said Siyeon had to be by her side every day so she wouldn't feel lonely.

All just past.

After dinner with alcohol, Siyeon's face has a little vibe, brown eyes are not as clear as before, now half open and half empty. SuA sighed.

- Siyeon, you're drunk again.

Siyeon laughed stupidly.

- What if I’m drunk? I'm next to you now, do I need to worry?

- …………………….

- I feel comfortable and safe when I'm with you, so I'm not afraid of getting drunk at the moment.

- …………………….. – SuA tensed, her heart pounding, until now she could confirm that……

Lee Siyeon must have had a crush on her.

She had received flirting from many boys, this was the first time a girl attacked her.

- Siyeon, have you ever loved someone?

Siyeon stopped all activities, she sat motionless on the chair for a long time.

She once loved someone passionately, but left that person for money.

It was all in the past, she didn't feel the pain of it now, because her heart was probably focused on someone else.

That person is right in front of her.

- I once had a deep love, but now it's over, and you, have you ever loved anyone?

- No, I have not had a first love.

Siyeon was filled with disappointment in her heart because of SuA's answer. She knew her disappointment was unreasonable, because SuA's reply was only natural.

SuA can't remember her, so as of right now, SuA hasn't exactly had a love affair.

If SuA could remember everything, she would know that Siyeon was the first person she fell in love with.

But reality it's too harsh.

Siyeon didn't want to continue this topic, she stood up, walked over to SuA, grabbed the hand and pulled SuA away.

She dragged SuA upstairs and she didn't see SuA’s resistance or a question, so she just dragged SuA all the way down the 1st floor hallway.

SuA finished a can of beer and it was like she just drank a can of coke, she was unharmed because her alcohol intake was very good. She was silent when Siyeon pulled her away because she was nervous by Siyeon’s words.

Is she slowly falling in love with Siyeon……?

They've only met for less than 2 weeks.

Siyeon still holds SuA's hand with one hand, and with the other goes to check the empty bedrooms in her house. All are locked.

- The door is locked, go to another room.

- …………………….

- This room is also locked...

- …………………….

- It's locked, the room is out - Siyeon mumbled to herself all the way to find SuA's bedroom.

- ………… - SuA has been unable to say anything since.

- Now I can't remember where I left the key, you can sleep in my room tonight.

- ………….

- My bed is very wide, rest assured - Siyeon said and pulled SuA to her bedroom.

SuA sighed at the end of this evening, she didn't have the strength to resist, she accepted to let everything happen naturally.

The evening ended with SuA and Siyeon sleeping together in Siyeon's room, SuA changing into the pajamas that Siyeon had just given her. Siyeon is taller than her so the clothes are too big for her small body, SuA looks like she's swimming in a pile of fabric.

As for Siyeon, she wore a very sexy black two-piece nightgown. After drinking a can of beer, her body was burning hot, she didn't want to wear too much cloth….

The two lay an arm's length apart.

- Sleep well - Siyeon whispered.

- Hmm... - SuA was shy, the first time she slept with someone, the first time she slept at someone's house.

She has a lot of friends but everything just stops at outside play, the closest she has is with Siyeon, whom she has known for almost 2 weeks now, is her boss.

When other people are around, she will call Siyeon "director Lee", when the two are in private, she calls Siyeon by the real name, Siyeon does the same. SuA also saw that the people who worked here for a long time called Siyeon by her real name like Handong, Dami, but SuA had only worked for less than a month so she couldn't be so comfortable.

Is her relationship with Siyeon really that strange, or are all assistant director pairs like that?

Siyeon fell asleep because she was drunk, while SuA was still confused with her thoughts, after a while, she fell asleep

One night passed….

SuA opened her eyes and woke up, feeling hotter than usual, she pulled the blanket down a bit and found that her hand was being clenched.

As Lee Siyeon, Siyeon probably unconsciously approached and held SuA’s hand while sleeping. The distance between the two was no longer an arm's length.

SuA used her free hand to reach for the phone, it's 7 o'clock now, she needs to get ready to go to work or she'll be late. She tried as hard as she could, gently removing her hand from Siyeon's.

But held tight...

SuA was surprised, it seems like Siyeon didn't sleep.

- Where do you go? - Siyeon whispered, eyes still closed.

- I have to go to work now, I will come back to pick you up later.

- Stay here, no one will blame you.

- I have an appointment with Handong to discuss work at 8 o'clock.

- Who is the owner of KBR?

- Ah... it's you - SuA quietly brought her body back to its original position, pulling the blanket up to her chest. Her hand was still clenched, she was afraid it would go numb.

Siyeon's hand size is big compared to hers, so her hand is like an egg in a basket

After lying still for a while, SuA fell asleep again.

Two hours later, she woke up and turned to find Siyeon still sleeping.

- Director Lee, are you going to work?

- …………………….

- Lee Siyeon - SuA touched Siyeon's body and felt hot.

- ……………………..

- Damn, she's got a fever.

---

Handong tapped her fingers on the table repeatedly because she couldn't contact SuA, she needed to meet SuA to assign some work. After a while, SuA called back.

- Kim SuA where are you?

"I'm at Director Lee's house, she has a fever"

- Ms. Lee has her own doctor, let me call him.

----

- Do not call.

SuA turned to look and saw that Siyeon was awake, she looked very tired.

- You look so tired, I need to call the doctor for you.

- No, don't call.

SuA pursed her lips, then spoke back to Handong

- Director Lee doesn't want to see the doctor, I'll call you later.

SuA hung up and looked at Siyeon sighing, Siyeon was still lying next to her, and she was leaning against the bed. Siyeon’s hand was still holding hers and never let go.

- Siyeon, do you need anything?

- ……………………

- Or will I go buy medicine for you?

- No.

- Or call Chef Park to cook something delicious for you

- Not.

- So... tell me what I need to do.

- ……………………

- …………..

- Stay here - Siyeon answered after a long silence.

- Well, I’m still here.

- That's okay - Siyeon reassured herself and prepared to sleep again, she knew where her health condition came from, she wasn't to the point of having a severe fever that needed to see a doctor.

Her mental state was quite bad for the past week, so she always felt tired and sluggish, and didn't have any motivation to do anything. Then yesterday, drinking beer again, so the fatigue has increased, her body is hot. She just needs enough rest and she'll be fine.

And her goal was achieved so she had no reason to be tired anymore, she successfully coaxed SuA to sleep at her house.

This time, she definitely needs to increase Yoohyeon’s salary.
