"It took me great pains to keep you at arm's length to the extent of fighting it over with Ae Cha," Do Yun said as he closed his eyes to control himself from being annoyed.
Looking at his face, the shape of his face; looking at his mouth, as he makes an almost invisible gesture. This is the gesture that gives him his character and this is the gesture she remembered him by. Pressing her lips Amor slowly looked away, "You didn't have to do that," she whispered to herself. "Oh..... I have pledged my loyalty to you Mr. Kim as I've said before I will be your personal secretary until you say otherwise."
Do Yun stood up and headed out to the door thus Amor hurriedly followed. The silence is too deafening inside the car and her eyes couldn't resist the temptation to catch a glimpse of Do Yun every once in a while from her side mirror. Before she knew it they have finally arrived home and Jack opened the rear door for Do Yun, her eyes caught him as he walked past her and she smiled but ducked her head and eyes away. Do Yun then headed to the elevator thus Amor hurriedly followed and waited for the elevator beside him. Her heart and the elevator feel like a plummet inside a plummet.
Once inside the elevator, Amor pushed the 12th-floor button but Do Yun unexpectedly pushed the emergency stop switch.
"Uhm..... Mr. Kim," she gave him a confused look.
But Do Yun only gave her a smile as he walked calmly toward her while maintaining eye contact. He opened his arms when they were just a foot away from each other and leaned on her to the extent that their shoulders touch while giving her a tight hug. He rested one of his hands on her upper back just below the shoulders and the other on her lower back just above her hips, took a deep breath, and held her that way for a few minutes while moving his hands around on her back. Hugging her this way makes him feel excited but nervous at the same time since he feels turned on by their hug. He let out a loving sigh while caressing her back with his palms and whispered something in her ear as he hugged her, "Please help me." He let her head rest on his shoulders then lifted her to let their foreheads touch together and gaze in each other's eyes as he releases the embrace.
"Ah..... Mr. Kim," Amor can no longer stay afloat in the shallow water and allowed her tears to fill up the bucket she is in right now.
Do Yun gently wiped the tears on her face, "It's almost impossible to resist the caress of the tears on your face."
"I didn't mean to distress you, Mr. Kim," she glanced again and he was still watching her and he looks hot. "Are we lovers who can spend hours staring into each other's eyes? Is it a display of trust? If we are, can I be close to him and trust him not to hurt me while I'm in this vulnerable position??? And if the trust is one of the foundations of love, perhaps staring at him is a way to build or reinforce it or maybe a simple search for a connection to see and to be seen," she told herself.
Do Yun caught himself looking at Amor's lips that caused his own lips to softly part. He tested the waters first with a small kiss on her hand thus he took her hand and slowly lifted it to his mouth and gently pressed his lips into the back of her hand for a few seconds before breaking away. He also planted a small kiss on her right cheek and since Amor seems interested, he feels safe to proceed with a kiss on her mouth. "I can't believe I found someone like you," said Do Yun in an intimate way and locked eyes with each other. "I'd love nothing more than to kiss you right now," then they both closed their eyes, leaned on each other, and smooched in a slow and soft way for a few minutes while placing his hands lightly on her shoulders.
Amor pulled away for a moment to look into his eyes and whispered something in his ear, "The more I learn about you, the more I fall."
Do Yun gazed from her eyes to her forehead and down to her lips then look her in the eyes again and uttered with a grin, "It wasn't that long, and it certainly wasn't the kind of kiss you see in Kdrama these days, but it was wonderful in its own way, and all I can remember about the moment is that when our lips touched, I knew the memory would last forever."
He then pushed the emergency button to open the elevator and as soon as they arrive on the 12th floor they have both became aware of time. Before Do Yun could get inside their unit he held her hand a little longer, "Oh..... Mr. Kim.....," pressing her lips Amor slowly looked away.
"Why don't you get inside first?"
"Uhm..... okay good evening Mr. Kim," then she went inside their own unit.
According to some studies, the average woman kisses about 15 men, has 2 long-term relationships, and experiences heartbreak at least twice before she meets "the one" and gets married. Although Amor is an average woman she has only kissed 2 men (including Do Yun) and 1 long term relationship with her husband with whom she experiences heartbreak every now and then. But when her lips touched Do Yun's lips, she wished the moment would last forever. She also liked the feel of his hands on her face, and how he moved his hands around on her back when they hugged. Thinking about the compliments he said to her before and after their kiss seems to confirm his attraction toward her.
She knows she should walk away from this, but why is she standing still in the elevator?
