Chapter 23
Hearts do heal

SEUNGHEE

“She asked me if I like you.”

“Oh,” I said, taking a huge sip from my glass of beer. “So, what did you tell her?” I asked glancing at him with a chuckle that I hope didn't sound too awkward.

Haneul smiled, taking his own glass. “That I don't date a co-worker anymore. I've learned enough not to mix work and personal life. I wish I wouldn't.”

“Did that answer the question?”

“No, so she asked me another question.” He said after drinking. “She asked if I still want to see you once this project is over.”

I was listening to the steady beat of my heart slowly getting louder. I didn't ask anything this time.

Haneul chuckled. “You're not asking my response this time.”

“Why is Sohee asking such things?” I asked, feeling my cheeks heat up so I drank again.

“I told her yes.” Haneul said. I wasn't able to look at him. “I told her I'd still want to see you even after this project.”

I would too but I'm not sure whether that's because it's normal for people who worked together in good terms or it's something else. All I knew was that my heart beat has started going crazy.

“Still... I wonder if she got the answer she wants.” I said, eating the grilled meat even though I was mostly full from Minjoon's birthday food.

“I don't think so.” Haneul said. “But I think she understood.”

“You're crazy. You're crazy. Stop thinking about it!” I said, lightly slapping my cheek a few times.

“Eonni, don't. Writers are naturally a little crazy.” Sorn said.

I sighed. “Sorn,”

“Eonni,”

“Do you like someone?”

“No, I don't have the luxury of time to like someone.” She replies quickly. “Why? Do you like someone right now?”

My eyes widen, somehow feeling defensive. “No! It's... a character research.”
