Tan Ja Nin woke up at 4AM and drove to Lee Jin Ho's place to prepare breakfast for him. As usual, Lee Jin Ho was still sleeping when she arrived at his place. She went directly to Lee Jin Ho's bedroom and walked silently to his bed. She sat on the bedside and looked at the sleeping Lee Jin Ho. She still can't believe that this man whom she didn't even notice when they were in Highschool could be her first boyfriend. Her first kiss. Her first man. She stared at his handsome face. 

'What if you we're not the one I bumped into that night at the Privé Club? What if I bumped into a total stranger, should I also gave myself to him?'

This has always been her thoughts. She was drunk that night. If she has given herself freely to him, there was a probability that she could also gave herself to another man if it wasn't him whom she bumped into.

She bit the lower part of her lips. She knew that she wasn't that kind of woman. She maybe drunk that night but...

She chided herself. She should never drink that much again in the future. She was afraid that the same thing will happen again that she could not control her body and mind. She could never forgive herself if that's happens with someone else. 

She softly touched Lee Jin Ho lips and took a peck. She was about to leave when Lee Jin Ho's suddenly held her hands. 

"Ja Nin." 

She halted her steps and was surprised when he pulled her. She landed on top of him. 

"Aren't you getting tired of coming here early in the morning?" Lee Jin Ho's asked in a hoarse voice.

She was about to answer him and she heard his voice again.

"Just live here with me..." 

She looked at his face and his eyes were still closed.

"Please live here with me..." said Lee Jin Ho. Did she hear the pleading tone on his voice?

"Jin Ho, are you dreaming?" She asked because she can't believe that he was spouting nonsense.

Lee Jin Ho opened his eyes. There was a hint of pain flashes on it. "I'm awake."

"Then why are you spouting nonsense?" She asked. 

"I wanted to take responsibility on what happened between us..." 

"I'm not asking you to be held responsible." She said. Why would she asked him to take responsibility when she was partly to be blamed. They were both drunk that night. 

Lee Jin Ho looked straight into her eyes as if he was looking for some answers.

"This set up will just be for one month. After our agreement, I won't be waking up as early as 4AM to cook breakfast for you...what is a 1 month sacrifice compare to the commercial that you promised to give to me after all this." 

"So you we're saying you're only doing this because of that da*n commercial?" 

Tan Ja Nin got startled but was able to compose herself again. "Should there be any other reason?" 

Lee Jin Ho looked at her like he could not believe what he was hearing from her. 

Tan Ja Nin pulled herself up and got out from the bed. 


"I'll cook your breakfast now." 

Lee Jin Ho looked at her retreating figure frustratedly. 

He thrown the pillow out of rage. 

He shook his head and laughed insanely. 

What has gotten into him that he asked her again to live with him? 

Did he mistake the nights that he has taken her onto his bed as his passport that she will finally agree to live with him? 

He must be crazy for thinking that. 

After her second rejection, he promised that he will never ask her again to live with him. 

NEVER AGAIN! 

....

Tan Ja Nin's hands were shaking when she took out the eggs from the fridge. 

She looked at Lee Jin Ho's bedroom and shook her head.

Did she just turn down his offer to live with him?

Yes she just did.

Because why would he asked her again to live with him? Taking responsibility? Because of what? Of guilt? She will never live with him just because he was guilty for what he did! 

Arent they happy with the current set up they had right now? Why would he brought up that living together again because he wanted to take responsibility. That made her feel more awful and she has started to be convinced that they have made a mistake for sleeping with each other.

.....

Lee Jin Ho silently pulled a chair from the dining table and sat up during breakfast. He never uttered a single word while he was eating. Tan Ja Nin looked at his every move and was bothered by his silence. She looked at his plate and he was about to finish his meal. 

"Jin Ho..." 

"You don't need to prepare my breakfast anymore. Don't bother to bring my lunch too and cook dinner for me from now on." Lee Jin Ho said in low voice.

Tan Ja Nin was stunned. 

"Jin Ho..." She was looking for words but she cannot found them. 

"Please go to the Shunshinati office today to sign the contract for your endorsement." said Lee Jin Ho coldly and got up. 

Tan Ja Nin felt numb when he started to walk away. She could not processed on her thoughts the things that he said. 

She tried to follow him but he slammed the door as soon as he entered into his bedroom. 

Was he mad?

She knocked at his bedroom.

"Jin Ho..."

She did not receive any reply from him. 

She turned the knob but it was locked. 

"Jin Ho, open the door!" She can't bear to leave his place knowing that he was angry at her. 

"Are you mad at me?" 

Lee Jin Ho who was standing inside the room took a deep sigh. He went into the bathroom and took a shower. 

Tan Ja Nin has hopelessly went back to the dining area and cleaned the table. She sat at the couch in the living room to wait for Lee Jin Ho to come out from his room. She could never leave Lee Jin Ho's pad knowing that he was still angry at her. 

After 30 minutes, Lee Jin Ho came out from his room already dressed up to go to the office. 

She stood up when she saw him. 

"Jin Ho..."

"Be there at my office at 3PM" He said expressionless and  strode off the door. 

Tan Ja Nin felt miserable. 

....

"Really? The contract with Shunshinati will push through?" Manager Mo excited voice can be heard from the other line. Tan Ja Nin called her to inform her that they need to come to Shunshinati's office by 3PM to sign the contract. 

"Yes." Tan Ji Nan said without enthusiasm. 

"What did you do? I thought we've already lost the opportunity to work with them. Did you do something about it?" 

'I pissed their President off' she answered at the back of her mind. 

"Are you available later for the contract signing?" She asked instead. 

"Of course yes. Even if I have another appointment, I will just cancel it. Are we going to go there together? Please ensure to go to the salon first before you go to the Shunshinati's office. Don't do anything again to piss off their President." 

"Uhm" she said and hang up the phone. 

.....

Tan Ja Nin was picked up by Manager Mo from the same salon and they went together at the Shunshinati's office.

Just like the first time, they came too early than their appointment time. They have waited for the same comference room.

"I just can't believe that we're here now to sign the contract. Tell me, what did you do?"

"I cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner for President Lee!"

Manager Mo's eyes were widened in disbelief. "Just like that?" She can't believe that a simple task of preparing the Presiden't breakfast was equivalent to a million contract.

Tan Ja Nin pursed her lips. 

"Are you sure that you didn't do anything aside from that?" Manager Mo was skeptical.

Tan Ja Nin looked at her manager and was puzzled by the way she was looking at her. "Why? What else do you think I just did?"

Manager Mo stared at Tan Ja Nin and shook her head. Tan Ja Nin could not possibly did what she had thought. She knew that Tan Ja Nin would not resort on that method just to curry favors. She will not trade herself just to win back the endorsement contract. 

"You're beautiful. President Lee must be smitten by your beauty so could not afford to look for another model to be the face of their product." 

Tan Ja Nin face blushed and Manager Mo caught that so she smiled. 

She was about to say something about it when they've heard PA Jin's voice. 

They looked at the door and saw PA Jin together with the company's attorney entering the conference room.

"Good afternoon ladies, glad to see you again today!"

Tan Ja Nin and Manager Mo stood up to greet them. Tan Ja Nin was looking at the door and could not see Lee Jin Ho with them. 

"President Lee will not be joining us today but he already signed the contract so you could only affix your signature into it." PA Jin said when he noticed that Tan Ja Nin was looking for President Lee. 

Tan Ja Nin face fell when she heard that!

He was really mad for not wanting to see her face again. 

She realized that she needs to do more coaxing to pacify his anger.
