Hearing her cry breaks my heart. When I heard the crack in her voice, my heart urged me to abandon work and go to her. I was so compelled to just leave and accompany her in her grief.
All I wanna do is just to be there for her. And it breaks my heart that I couldn't do it. Oh how I wish I could just teleport to where she is right now and tuck her to sleep.
And when she requested me to accompany her until she sleeps, it took all my willpower to stay still and remain where I am. I would fly, if I could, just to see her fall asleep in my arms, safe and sound. God I love her so much, so so much.
So I sang to her the song I wanted her to hear, 'For First Time Lovers'*. I know it's not our first time in that aspect but everyday with her feels like a first time. And I wanted her to feel how much I care for her, how much I love her.
I know she wouldn't understand but I'm leaving it to my voice for her to be mesmerized. Kidding aside, someday I'm gonna explain it to her.
I sang it in korean because in the first place, it is a korean song. And korean has been my first language, knowing that my mom is one. Singing it in english would feel like tainting the entirety of the song.
I stopped working altogether and thought of the first time we met. She was sad back then. And all I wanted to do was place a bright smile on her face. So, I shyly approached her and made some small talk.
I don't know why I was so drawn to her, everything about her perks up my interest. She is so damn gorgeous, but her every movement echoes simplicity and humility.
So when I was given an opportunity, I asked Ash to let me bring her home. But it wasn't planned to bring her to my home. I just forgot to ask Ash where she lives. And fortunately for me, it was the reason we had our first date.
~"The day when I first saw you
Your bright smile full of shyness
we'll get closer after today
every day, I have heart-fluttering expectations
what to say to you
how to get you to laugh
I fear it'll get awkward when I try to hold your hand
all I can do is smile shyly"~
It was my first time opening up to someone, and maybe it was when we were talking about home that I saw her wearing a wedding dress, walking down the aisle, towards me.
I know it sounds so creepy because it was just our first meeting but it just is. That smile of hers, those eyes, her expressive face everything about her.
It was my first time slowly learning how to conquer my fear of heights. It was the reason I could finally use the cable car back at my mountain cabin. She was the reason that I could celebrate Christmas full of joy.
~"Hopefully we can speak banmal** to each other
even though it's still awkward and unfamiliar
instead of saying 'thank you'
talk to me in a friendlier way"~
And I love it how she calls me baby, babe, sweetie, love and so many now. Even my name sounds so sweet in her lips.
I love how she's grown comfortable with me, that she even tries to seduce me. God, the strength I had to reject her is as thin as my hair strand.
~"Hopefully we can speak banmal to each other
you walk towards me slowly, step by step
now look at my two eyes and tell me
I love you"~
I love everything about her.
~"Hopefully we can fall in love with each other
We can lean on one another and take care of each other
Looking into your eyes, my two eyes
they're talking to you
I love you"~***
I love her.
Saranghae, Cassidy.

I was woken up by my colleague's incessant rants.
"Oy Sitti, what's up? It's too early in the morning." I sat up and rubbed my eyes.
Sitti is one of my trusted architects. She's smart and flexible, too, making her somehow an all-around girl for us. She accompanied me here since she knows everything about our client, their plans, and the place they're proposing on, to the dot.
"I don't like that Mr. Omega. I don't like him at all. One moment he asks us to finish the draft, and then the next he decides to postpone the meeting because of some freaking event."
My mind lagged a bit. "Okay okay Sitti. Calm down first. Tell me what really happened."
"Mr. Omega's assistant woke Albert up earlier to inform us that our final project proposal meeting for today would be moved tomorrow because Mr. Omega's attending a charity event today! A charity event organized by his fcking mistress! God why did I marry someone like him." She sat at the couch, defeated.
Yes, Sitti is married to our client. And she just knew about this mistress when we arrived here. Of course she knew that we'd be working with her husband. But she didn't know that the project we're handling is a resort for the mistress. And Mr. Omega didn't even know that Sitti was working with me in this project. In fact, Albert and I were the only ones facing them.
I imagined she would get wild and all and back out from the project. But she didn't. She said she'd endure, until she could exact her revenge. And when and how it's gonna happen, we could only imagine.
I looked at my watch. It was still 2am. Eh?
"Sitti, did the assistant tell you where that event is gonna happen?"
"Yeah. In Shinoa City. A freakin' 8-hour drive from here."
Yes! That's it! Silver City to Gloriville**** is also an 8-hour drive.
The gears on my mind started working. So, Silver City to Gloriville is an 8-hour drive. But if I travel by air, that would take an hour or so!
"Minho, what are you thinking?"
I looked at her. "I plan to go back to Gloriville just for a day."
"But it's too far- Oh! You're taking the heli?"
Albert took the helicopter for our aerial inspection, while Sitti and I had the car for land inspection.
"Yeah."
Sitti studied me.
"Go on with whatever you wanna say. I just have to get back."
"Okay. But when you come back, bring me these." And she gave me a piece of paper, containing some materials we need to finish the draft.
She smirked. "I don't need to go to the mall now. Better lie and behave in my room." And then she sauntered out of my room.
I smiled.
Wait for me Cassidy.
Wait for me.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
