18th August 2017, Friday (The same day)

Min-ji was done drying her hair with the hair dryer while Jungwoo was waiting for her to be done after he cleaned up the bathroom counter since it was full with tissues. No one got in the bathroom the whole time when Jungwoo was helping Min-ji so no one besides the others knew that there was a boy in the girls bathroom. Min-ji turned off the hair dryer then looks at Jungwoo. "Do i look alright?" Min-ji asked. Jungwoo looked at her from head to toe then smiled. "You looked better then before." Jungwoo said while smiling. Min-ji smiled back then picks up the stuff that the waitress gave her to give it back to her. "Thanks for helping" Min-ji said before they got out the bathroom. "No problem" Jungwoo said then they both got out the bathroom. Min-ji was walking to the waitress who gave her the stuff and she gives back the stuff that the waitress gave her. "Hey" Min-ji said to the waitress. "Oh, hi." the waitress said. "Here you go. Thanks for lending me these things" Min-ji said. "No problem. I hope you have a nice evening" the waitress said while smiling at Min-ji. Min-ji smiled back and nodded. "You to" Min-ji said then she walked away from the waitress. Jungwoo walked with Min-ji to their table and the food and drinks already came. It took a long time for Min-ji to clean herself up so the food got a bit cold. Jungwoo sat at his seat and Min-ji sat at hers. "Sorry for making you guys waiting. The food must be cold now" Min-ji said while looking down. "It's okay. At least you already cleaned up and their won't be any accidents anymore" Ji-ho said. Min-ji smiled then nodded. "Are you okay mommy?" Ji-yoo asked. "I'm okay sweetie. There was just a small accident nothing else." Min-ji said while smiling at Ji-yoo to make him less worried about her. "You must be hungry from all the waiting. You could've just eat the whole time when i was in the bathroom" Min-ji said. "Yea, but eating alone is not really fun for me so i waited for you" Ji-yoo said. Min-ji smiled then nodded. "Well, you can eat now" Min-ji said. Ji-yoo nodded and ate his food. Ji-yoo was seven years old so he can manage to eat by himself. Min-ji ate her food while talking to Jungwoo and Ji-yoo while Aerum was filled with anger looking at Min-ji and Jungwoo talking to each other. "Ch-! Why does Jungwoo even like her? She literally has a son and no one knows who the father is" Aerum said to herself then she rolled her eyes cause she was annoyed then ate her food.

Everyone was done eating their food and they got their stuff and walked to the counter to pay the bill of the food. Min-hyun payed for the food and everyone thanked him. They all got in their own cars to drive home since it's already 10pm. Min-ji and Ji-yoo was in the car and Jungwoo excused himself to go to the bathroom for a while. After he was done doing his business, he got out of the bathroom. "You haven't left?" someone said. Jungwoo looked beside him and it was Aerum. "No, not yet. I was just about to leave." Jungwoo said who's walking away from Aerum. Aerum quickly grabbed his hand to stop him from taking another step. "Jungwoo, can i tell you something?" Aerum asked. "Make it quick, Min-ji's waiting for me" Jungwoo said who was a bit annoyed at Aerum. Aerum got closer to Jungwoo and kissed him then Jungwoo pushed her back until she falls and wipes her kiss. "What the hell Aerum?!" Jungwoo said who was annoyed. "I tought you liked me" Aerum said. "You don't?" Aerum asked. "Hell no!" Jungwoo said. "Isn't it already obvious? I like Min-ji" Jungwoo said. Those words stabbed Aerum's heart right away and she felt that her blood started to boil. "Why? Why her? She's already pregnant and had a child! Why can't you pick me huh?!" Aerum asked standing up from where she was. "Because i know that i can never love you anymore!" Jungwoo said. "You broke my heart and only dated me to make the others jealous!" Jungwoo said. "In fact! You even used me to get back with your ex!" Jungwoo said. "You only picked the best from the worst and you just picked me cause i was one of the handsome boys!" Jungwoo said. "Ch-! That was in the past! I changed!" Aerum said. "Really?! You changed?! Was destroying Min-ji's night one of your changes huh?!" Jungwoo asked. Aerum just stayed quiet cause she knows that he's right. Jungwoo stared at her for the final time then walked away from her. "I'll make you regret dating her in the future!" Aerum said. Jungwoo stopped walking then turned back. He walked to Aerum then pushed her to the wall not caring if her back hurts at all. "If you try to lay a hand on my Min-ji or even try to make her let out a single tear, i promise you, you will regret that you were even alive" Jungwoo said. Aerum just stand there in shock and Jungwoo left the restaurant and walked to his car.

"That took you long enough" Min-ji said. "Sorry, i had a problem last time." Jungwoo said while putting on his seat. "Well, it's okay. Ji-yoo slept the whole time we were waiting" Min-ji said. "Was it that long?" Jungwoo asked. "It was only 30 minuets but Ji-yoo was just tired." Min-ji said. Jungwoo nodded then he drive the car. During the journey to their houses, Jungwoo started to wonder if Min-ji really liked him back or not. Yes, he knows that she likes him from Daehan but he just needs to know from Min-ji by her saying it herself. Jungwoo stopped the car cause there was a red light, he looked at the time, it was 10.40pm. He looked back at the passenger seats and Ji-yoo was a sleep like a cute puppy. "He really seems to sleep soo comfortable" Jungwoo said while smiling. "Yea, he was just so tired" Min-ji said. Jungwoo looked at his driving wheel while thinking if it's the right time to ask her or not. Then he finally got the courage to talk to Min-ji. "Hey, can i ask you something?" Jungwoo asked. Min-ji turned off her phone then looked at Jungwoo. "Sure" Min-ji said while nodding slowly. "You said you liked someone right? When you were in America taking care of me" Jungwoo said. "Yea, why?" Min-ji asked. "Can you tell me who's the guy?" Jungwoo asked. "I already told you his featured and his initials." Min-ji said. "Yea, but i just want to know who's his name. Maybe i know him" Jungwoo said. "Fine, i'll tell you but you also have to tell me yours okay" Min-ji said and Jungwoo nodded. "Don't be mad. To be honest, i liked you for some time. I never had the courage to tell you cause you might get mad cause this might destroy our friendship or even your career cause your fans will judge. But don't worry, um... i'll try to forget about these feelings towards you" Min-ji said. "It's okay" Jungwoo said and Min-ji was shocked at his response. She taught that he'll get mad at her or something. "Huh?" Min-ji asked. "Look, i liked you to for some time. I was just trying to make sure if you like me back or not" Jungwoo said who started driving again since the lights turned green. "Y-you liked me?" Min-ji asked. "Yea, i do." Jungwoo said while nodding. "Look, you don't need to hide or get rid of these feelings for me." Jungwoo said. "I think Ji-yoo will be okay if we date. He always said that he wanted a father like me." Jungwoo said. "Well, that's of cores if you agree. I won't force you at all. If you don't want us to be more then friends then i'll get rid of these feelings. It's up to you. If you want us to be more then friends then you can tell me and i'll just agree" Jungwoo said while focusing on the road. Min-ji nodded. She still can't believe what just happened.

They stayed quiet for some time until they finally arrived at Min-ji's house. "Well, i guess you can go back to your house" Jungwoo said. "Um.... you said this is up to me right? If we want to date or not" Min-ji said. "Yea" Jungwoo said while nodding. "I-i'll date you" Min-ji said. Jungwoo was just shocked and just sat still on his seat like he was frozen or something. He taught that Min-ji will just wanted to be friends so he's shock to hear her say this. "Well, i'll get going. I'll see you later okay" Min-ji said. "Y-yea, okay" Jungwoo said. Min-ji smiled then got off of Jungwoo's car then lift Ji-yoo up and walked to her door step. She unlocks the door and get in. Jungwoo drove away and drove to his house. He was still in shock but he was also happy about Min-ji's response.
