"Yeah, I'm on the way now to the laundry. Yes, yes. I'll go home after this. Okay, see you!" Sungjae ended the call that he received from Hyunsik.

He's driving on the way now to the laundry to have the stain washed. He still couldn't stop thinking of the woman he kept on bumping into. And she's the reason of his sleepless nights these past few days.

"I even forgot to ask her name! Damn it!" Sungjae cursed in annoyance. Hitting the steering wheel with his right hand.

Sungjae arrived at the laundry shop and talked to the owner for a while to explain about the stain. Fortunately, he can wait at the mini cafe inside the laundry shop for his shirt because he only brought one. He walked towards the cafe and ordered something. After ordering, he looked for a peaceful place to sit.

After an hour of waiting, Sungjae was already in his third cup of coffee. He was sipping his hot coffee when he noticed someone familiar going inside the laundry shop. He immediately stood up, leaving his coffee behind and walked towards the familiar woman who was just about to get her clothes from the owner of the laundry.

"Hi!" Sungjae greeted, looking at the woman happily.

The woman looked at Sungjae and suddenly her expression changed when she realized who it was.

"I-It's you again, Su-Sungjae." the woman looked down, pink blush slowly appearing on her cheeks.

"What's your name by the way?" Sungjae asked first thing. This time, he didn't want to forget asking her name.

The woman was still surprised, holding her bag of clothes, but answered anyway, "Sooyoung."

"Ahh. Sooyoung. I didn't think your name was this pretty. It suits you." Sungjae complimented, giving Sooyoung his sweet smile.

Sooyoung's cheeks become red from pink, now looking at her bag of clothes.

"Mr. Sungjae! Your shirt is ready now." the owner of the laundry shop interrupted.

"Oh, thanks Madam." Sungjae reached for his shirt which was already wrapped in a plastic and paid the owner.

"So, Sooyoung, where do you want to go next?" Sungjae asked, smiling sweetly at her.
