An Important Person?

TU (Technology Unity) Company.

Two weeks later, these days were still the same as in previous days. Donghwa hadn't given any news yet and I was still holding on with my decision to not contacting him.

However, there was no news from him. Seemingly, he didn't care about this relationship anymore.

Right now, I was in Daehyun's office with a few copies of the report that he had to approve presently while waiting for him to finish the pile of other files on his desk after a business trip in France, the day after giving me days off.

Seeing Daehyun who was bright, I smiled. Somehow, looking at him with that brightness reminded me of Donghwa when he was working in his workspace.

It was like seeing the same person and being on the same side of the same person even though with different feelings.

In the past, I truly liked him, but I had buried that feeling so deep in the bottom of my heart. I almost forgot that he was the first person I fell in love with.

"Mr. Kim ..."

Daehyun raised his face, looked at me with a weird smile, " What's that? Why don't you just call me 'Daehyun'?." he chuckled, then continued, "Put the report next to the files I have filled in."

Walking slowly, I put those files on the desk.

Daehyun looked fresher than before. His face was bright and the dark color under his eyes from staying up had disappeared. He looked more good-looking with his appearance today.

"Hey, are you all right?"

I stared at him for a moment before answering lightly, "Yes, I'm fine."

Yes, I was doing fine. I would always say that sentence whenever someone asked how I was, even though I was in a bad state. As long as I was able to say that, I would continue to say that until God said 'enough'.

Recently, the headache happened several times a week, and it got worse. I even lost a lot of time and put off a lot of work, just to endure the pain in my head and the painful thing of waiting for someone's news in my heart.

However, I was quite used to lying to my own feelings, saying 'fine' until God felt bored and asked me to stop. It was a time when I made a terrifying choice and hoped that that day would never happen.

"Have you checked your condition up in the hospital?"

I stared at him for a moment, then spoke with disgust, "Can we not talk about it here ... sir?"

Daehyun immediately stopped his work after my words. He stood up, then walked across to me, looking straight at me with his sharp investigating eyes. It was as if the deep gaze was penetrating my mind; by tracing my heart as if looking for the truth through my eyes.

I instantly turned my face. That's pretty dangerous. Those eyes seemed to penetrate my feelings. I didn't want him to know a truth that I didn't even want to admit to being in me.

"You're an important person to me. If something happens to you, I won't forgive myself." he spoke solemnly, "When I have time, you should come with me to the doctor, and this is my order as your boss."

'An important person? What does it mean?'

I wanted to ask, but my lips said different things. "Daehyun, I'm fine ... I am." I forced myself to smile.

Daehyun fell silent, then returned to his seat.

His caring made me afraid. I once fell in love with him, and I was fearful that it would bring back the feelings which I had once abandoned.

After a few moments in his office, finally, he immediately signed the reports and gave them to me. Then, I went out to my office which was next to his office without a word.

During recess, in my office, there were still some reports to be finished. Those were reports that were piled up days ago. The head of the design department complained about the request for a schedule extension in the production department and received a lot of invective from the department head. That made him continue to apologize as the design report itself required approval from President Kim, who was on a business trip at the time.

That was the fatal recklessness of a disciplined and resolute person like him. However, when I scolded him for that mistake, he just laughed at it off as if it was something he was doing on purpose and was just playing around.

Amid my busyness, suddenly my cell phone which was beside the keyboard rang. I picked it up and answered, "Now, what?"

"Get ready to go. In ten minutes, you should be downstairs."

After saying that, without giving any response, Daehyun hung up the phone.

Sighing heavily, I immediately tidied up some unfinished reports, arranged them on my desk, then went out immediately to use the elevator.

When I got to the ground floor, my eyes looked for the limousine that used to take him everywhere but didn't see the luxury car parked in front of the company.

My hand was already moving to dial the call, but a black BMW stopped before me elegantly. The windshield was lowered slowly and revealed a familiar face with deep and gentle eagle eyes.

Kim Daehyun showed a delicate smile on his face. "Come on, get in."

I looked around and didn't see the bodyguards who were always following him before getting into the luxury car that was glistening in the sunshine. He immediately stepped on the gas pedal.

"Where are your guards?"

He smiled and replied teasingly, "Today, I drove for you."

I was stunned. Feeling strange at those words, I stared out the windshield without saying anything, until we arrived at a large shopping center in the middle of the city. I asked, "Why are we here?"

Daehyun just smiled, without answering. He then came out and walked into that place, followed by me.

This shopping place was one of the biggest shopping places in South Korea. Nobody didn't know this place in Seoul, not even only for celebrities, but South Korean politicians. It was only natural that Daehyun, a young, rich, and talented president in a big company chose this place as a place to buy many expensive things with high-quality.

Within a few minutes, we were right at one of the big shops with reputable brands. Daehyun entered first, then I followed him from behind.

An elegant and graceful man greeted us warmly. He showed a smile of familiarity that made anyone couldn't escape from this place.

"Chunghee, choose a suit for you because we will attend a new product launch event of Zhang's group tonight."

I gasped. That statement was so sudden. However, before I questioned it, this graceful man invited me to choose from a huge array of suits with fantastic prices, so that I could only silent and be obedient.
