Chapter 190 - Missed You
has fighting so hard so regain and remould that part of her which has been lost – and now she couldn\'t lose anything else. If accepting that she had come to like Dan-Han, that she had grown feelings for her boss after spending lots of hours with him would make her happy, then she would. If being with him was what she truly what she needed, then she\'ll take a swing at it.
Eun-sun brought out her phone from her bag and unblocked Dan-Han\'s number. She had blocked it out of the fear of him calling her. She wasn\'t sure if she\'d be able to decline his calls so she had resulted in blocking it.
She looked at his number again, and the idea of calling him came to her mind but she shoved it out of her mind as soon as it came. She didn\'t think that was a wise decision. She didn\'t know why she always felt anxious whenever she tries calling him, it was better if he was the one calling. She decided to wait for lunch and then she\'d go see him and maybe they could have lunch together. Thinking about food she remembered her former task of always getting him to eat. That was her promise to Mrs Lee which she had failed at keeping.
\'Has he been eating well? Did he eat breakfast?\' She asked herself. She bit her lips as punishment for acting the way she has acted and for neglecting his diet especially when she knew how he had grown to like eating with her, just as she had accustomed herself with eating with him. Eating alone these past few days has been sort of boring
Even when she shared a table with Hei-Ran at dinner or Hye-Jin at work, she always felt something was amidst.
Eun-sun brought out the small lunch pack which contained sandwiches she had made for herself this morning. She thought about it for a while before standing up to leave the office. She informed Hye-Jin she\'d be back soon.
She smoothened her clothes and made her way to the elevator. She pressed the button for the highest floor, and by each floor it climbed, Eun-sun\'s heart began to race. She couldn\'t imagine Dan-Han\'s face when he sees her.... would he be angry or excited since she has been avoiding him? She didn\'t know but all she was sure of was that she was done avoiding him.
When the elevator chimed on arrival, Eun-sun\'s heart skipped a beat. She drew in deep breaths to calm herself before slowly stepping out of the elevator. She hadn\'t taken more than a step when the scene of her \'kiss-licking\' him flashed through her mind. And that made her heart to race a little faster. She closed her eyes in an effort to brush those memories out of her mind, but it became even more vivid.
With her eyes still closed, Eun-sun muttered to herself, "Park Eun-sun you\'ve got to stop thinking about that kiss, please"
"I didn\'t know you still remembered that."
Eun-sun\'s eyes flew wide open when she heard that. She almost fell to her knees when her eyes came in contact with the person standing in front of her. And her heart almost sank into her stomach when she saw Secretary Chang-wok standing behind him as he tried to hide the blush on his face. It was obvious he had heard her too. Double embarrassment!!! Her brain screamed.
\'Someone please kill me!!!\' Eun-sun shrieked in her head. She hasn\'t seen him in the last three days –except if the time she had seen outside counted – and now she just embarrassed herself I\'m front of him and his secretary?? How perfect!
\'How did he suddenly get here?\' She asked herself. She looked at his office door which was still feets away from where they were standing right now, and she still couldn\'t think of the possibility, especially when she had just closed her eyes for a second or two. How was this even possible?!
If she had known he\'d suddenly appear on the hallway to his office she wouldn\'t had been stupid enough to share that thought out loud. Eun-sun felt like crying out.
Dan-Han gave a once over, she looked radiant in her formal dress. His eyes scanned her from head to toes, not missing a inch of her. It felt like ages since he last saw her.
"Park Eun-sun" Dan-Han called her name in soft and gentle tone, and he couldn\'t help but take a step closer to her. This was the first time in days that she was standing right in front of him. God he couldn\'t describe how he had missed her. He had desperately wanted to see her face, hug her just like they had done at the hospital, touch her soft and breath I\'m that intoxicating smell that always smelt like lavender, but he couldn\'t. Many times he had wanted to barge into her office and drag her out so they could talk things over, and tell her not to feel embarrassed about the kiss anymore – because he had thought that was the only reason she had been keeping her distance from him.
He didn\'t want to make things difficult for her by making her feel more embarrassed, so he had kept his space even though he badly wanted to be with her and make her his before someone else beat him to it.
This girl had tortured him for days.
Secretary Chang-wok noticing how the boss\' tone had changed and the way they were staring at each other, he retreated back into his office before he sighed his death warrant.
Eun-sun\'s heart was beating fast, hard and loud when he called her name like that, it was as if it was the first time she was hearing someone call her name so sweetly. And the way he was staring at her made goosebumps crawl over her skin. Her hands holding the lunch box turned sweaty. She could a certain kind of feeling surrounding her on the inside.
Trying to compose herself, Eun-sun blinked twice as she opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out.
"I...I.." She stuttered under his intense gaze which was making her quite uncomfortable. His gaze was piercing and was almost a hole into her head.
Dan-Han noticed her discomfort as she shifted from foot to foot. He retraced a step back to put some space between them. He didn\'t mean to make her uncomfortable but he had been overwhelmed by his emotions when he saw her.
"Why are you here?" He asked in a more casual tone so she could relax a bit.
Eun-sun took a deep breath to calm herself, "I came to give you this" She said stretching out the lunchbox to him. Dan-Han lowered his
eyes to it. He understood what she was doing. Does this mean she was over the kissing thing and wasn\'t going to avoid him anymore?
Dan-Han stretched out his hand to accept the box but he held both the box and her hand which felt so small in his.
"Does this mean, we\'ll have breakfast together now?" He curiously inquired. He didn\'t want to get over his head, just incase his mother had put her up to this. But breakfast, or lunch with no Eun-sun in front of him, haven\'t felt like breakfast or lunch at all.
"No" She replied immediately.
\'As expected\' Dan-Han sighed in his heart.
Eun-sun took note of the disappointment that flickered through his eyes. She could guess what he was thinking so she said, "I can\'t have breakfast now since I already have one, but since I\'m giving you mine lunch, maybe....we can have breakfast together?"
Dan-Ha\'s eyes lit up when he heard her. He looked at the box in his hand and a small smile curved his lips with Eun-sun noticed.
"This mean you won\'t avoid me anymore right?" Dan-Han anxiously asked.
Shaking her head Eun-sun softly replied, "No"
"I don\'t think there should be any need for us to be awkward with each other" \'And I don\'t have the heart to stay away from you anymore\' She added that part in her head.
"You\'re sure?" He asked.
"Yes"
"So no more running from me?" He asked again just to be sure.
Eun-sun shook her head and let out a small smile, "No more running"
A sweet smile curved Dan-Han\'s face as he stared at her pretty face. He took a step closer to her, he stretched his hand and tucked a few tendrils of hair behind her ear.
"I missed you" He muttered in a low voice, his eyes glistening with the love and care.
"I... I" Was she supposed to say it back?
Dan-Han smiled when she stuttered like that.
"Don\'t say a thing I\'ll see you at lunch" He said with a happy smile which Eun-sun could swear she hasn\'t seen before. Her heart thudded at the sight of him smiling so sweetly, she couldn\'t help but smile back.
"Okay, I\'ll see you at lunch" She said before hurrying back to the elevator. She turned to take a look at him and hopped into the elevator.
She patted her heart that was beating wildly.
Lee Dan-Han was going to be the death of her.
