"How's it going there?"

"The company is under control chairman. But the employees were wondering where you at. Shouldi tell them that you have gone on a vacation for a week?"


"No. Do not tell anything to anyone."

"Noted chairman. One more thing...."

"What is it?"
Sunghoon glanced at the sleeping Jiyoung on the bed while he's on the veranda of their room, just enjoying the overlooking view while taking his morning coffee.

"Ms. Yena keeps on going here and asking where are you. Should i atleast tell her your location?"

"Did i made myself clear earlier Secretary Yoon?"
His gaze went back to the view as his eyes lost it's emotions.

"do not tell anything to anyone. Yes chairman."
He confirmed.

"I need some time with Jiyoung. I don't want anyone to ruin it. Is that clear?"

"yes chairman."

"Good. I'll hung up now."
He said, seeing Jiyoung standing up from the bed while gently rubbing her eyes.

"How's your sleep?"
He walked towards her and kissed her forehead with a smile.

"It's much more comfy than when we are in Seoul. I want to stay here forever."
She pouted, half wake.

"You told me yesterday that the company might need us very soon right?"
He chuckled. Jiyoung just looked at him with her eyes half closed.

"yes you're right....."
She said and collapsed on the bed once again,

"wake up now jagiyaaa~"
he said, pulling the sheets off the bed. Jiyoung groaned.

"Five more minutes~"

"Aniyoooo~ I'm starving. prepare some breakfast~"
Jiyoung sighed and finally stood up from the bed once again.

"I'll go wash first. Wait for me downstairs, 'kay?"
He simply nodded his head and walked towards the door.


"Be quick, okay?"
She smiled and answered yes.

"So... where do you want to go?"
he asked her while taking a bite on his french toast.
Jiyoung put her hand on her chin and think.

"Jeju is famous for their oranges so....let's fetch some oranges later! Also, i wanna go to that colorful caveeee~ "
Sunghoon just looked at her with contentment.

"Let's go there then..."

"Woooow......"
Jiyoung's eyes were wide while looking around at the caves of Manjanggul. The colors on the wall are fabulous. Jiyoung looked around like a child on her baby stage.

"You're drooling, jagiya Haha..."
He found her adorable and laughed at her amazed face as she look at the rock formations that was once a lava.

"This is just too beautiful...."
She said in awe. Sunghoon smiled at her and hugged her tight.


"You're much more beautiful."
He whispered on her ear. Jiyoung laughed.

"That's too cringy. pfft-HAHA!"
Sunghoon's eyebrows arched.

"I'm trying to be sweet here. Appreciate it Assistant Shin!"

"ne uijang-nim." 
She playfully pinched his cheeks as she turned around. Sunghoon pouted.

(t/l: yes chairman~)

"Call me jagiya tooooo~"
He pouted

"Why all of a sudden?"
She giggled

"Nothing. Just wanna hear you calling me that way..."
Jiyoung cutely pinched his nose.

"ne jagiya~"
Their voices echoed al through out the Lava tubes. The whole place was reserved just for the two of them, so no one will see them doing this kind of things.

Sunghoon smiled at her warmly. Jiyoung's heartbeat suddenly quicken, as if it skipped a beat for a moment.

'His smile.... '

Jiyoung let out a small laugh and hugged him tight. Sunghoon was taken aback, but then just hugged her tightly. The lights inside the cave started to turn red, symbolizing romance.


" Let's fetch some oranges now? Okay? "
He asked her. Jiyoung just nodded her head and happily skipped on her way.



"Be careful not to slip thereee~"

"I won't~"
She hopped happily, not thinking of what she might step into.

Unfortunately, her foot suddenly slipped on one of the rocks on the ground.

"AHH-"
She screamed because of pain. She fell down on the rocks. Sunghoon looked around, trying to find her on his line of sight, slowly panicking.

"Yah- Jiyoung? Where are you?"
He asked anxiously. Jiyoung looked at him.

"I'm.... Here!"
She stayed still on her location so that Sunghoon can see her.

Sunghoon rushed towards her direction and checked her foot.

"Aigooo! I just told you to be careful right?"
He looked at the wound on her foot. Jiyoung apologetically smiled at him.

"I'm... Okay. I can stand... Up-!"
As soon as she tried to stand up, The wound suddenly ached making her lose her balance. Sunghoon caught her and embraced her tightly to prevent her from falling on the ground again.

"Let me carry you outside."
He said and carried her on his arms. Jiyoung just shove her face on his chest out of shame.

"I'm okaaaaay..... I just-"

"No explanations are entertained Ms. Jiyoung. You're so clumsy.."

"I'm sorry..."
She looked down. Sunghoon flicked her forehead.

"Listen to me next time, okay?"

"okay..."
He carried her towards the outside on that way. Jiyoung was blushing with deep red because of what they saw.

"Should we still come and fetch some orange?"


"Yes.....!"
