Chapter 405 - Flower bouquet

Ryu Yoonmi felt extremely aggravated when the decent dream she was having was interrupted by someone grabbing her wrist and pulling her. The sudden force caused her to open her eyes slightly.

In her half conscious mind, the view of Minah fell into her line of sight, and as creases appeared between both of her eyebrows, she voiced out, "What?"

Energetically, Minah spoke out, "Are you forgetting it? I thought it was important to you!"

"What important?" she mumbled before closing her eyes.

Her sleepy mind wasn't able to comprehend the situation; no matter how serious the situation was, all she wanted was to get some sleep.

However, her wish wasn't fulfilled when Minah grabbed her by her shoulders and pulled her up to sit. Even so, Ryu Yoonmi was dozing off.

Shaking her shoulders, Minah spoke out, "Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! Yoonmi!"

"Hmm," Yoonmi replied.

°°°

Only after Yoonmi had gotten dressed decently and washed up was when Minah stopped annoying her. After that, she was dragged to the car while her head kept nodding off the entire time.

Yoonmi was shocked at how energetic the woman could be at six in the morning.

As for where Minah was taking her to, Yoonmi did not have a strength to question that or maybe she did inquire about that once she was pushed to the car.

Finally relieved that things went silent, she let herself drift off to that peaceful sleep as she laid on the backseat of the car.

°°°

However, her sleep was once again interrupted when she heard the door beside her pulled open, and rubbing her eyes with her hand, she stared at her surroundings, confused.

Seeing how she was at the backseat of a car, she wondered how she ended up here.

Due to her sleeping position, a sharp pain went through her neck while she fixed herself, and a groan escaped from her mouth.

Her eyes then fell on Minah who opened the door, and everything came back to her. She recalled about how she was pulled to the car by the girl earlier in midst of her deep sleep.

"Hurry up now, Yoonmi! His flight must have landed! You will be sad if you miss him," Minah voiced out.

While confusion was read all over her face, Yoonmi held back the question that was forming in her mind.

'Is someone close to the current me is coming back today?'

Turning back, she saw the airport behind her, and even after thinking for a while, she wasn't able to figure it out. There wasn't a particular scene in the novel that she was able to think of.

"What are you looking at? You need to hurry!" Minah spoke out.

Yoonmi nodded before hesitantly getting off the car.

As much as Yoonmi wanted to question, she might end up seeming suspicious even if Minah laid to the dense side. 

Moreover, she wasn't that curious about it in the first place, seeing how she will be meeting the person in few minutes any way.

Once Yoonmi was outside of the car, Minah placed a bouquet of red roses in her hand, and while it's scent floated into her nosteils, Yoonmi wondered what type of person it was for Yoonmi to hand over red roses.

°°°

Yoonmi should have asked Minah earlier about the person!

She hated herself for growing muddled and forgetting the little detail that Eunwoo was arriving today. After all, he is only one Yoonmi will give the red roses to!

Even if it was that simple, she couldn't believe she let that slip off of her mind. Then again, the blame shouldn't be put all on her memory.

However, since Eunwoo hadn't arrived yet, she could easily turn her back now and run away. As for Minah, well, it couldn't be tough to get away from her.

But it was too late for that to happen.

"Oh! Ryu Yoonmi-ssi, you are here too."

Hearing that gentle voice made her want to smile yet cry in agony at the same time. She hated how she was caught by Hyungsik; it would seem too strange now if she turned her back and ran away.

Therefore, thinking about her lost pride before Eunwoo, she wore a stiff smile and faced Hyungsik. It was tough for her to hold back her tears at this point!

"Hello," Yoonmi nervously said.

Although she wanted to use the washroom as an excuse, there would not be any benefit from doing that— only that she will be delaying her meeting with Eunwoo.

At the end, they will have to wait for her, and that would be extremely horrible.

As she was in the middle of contemplating a way around this, creases appeared between both of her eyebrows, and she failed to take notice of her surroundings.

"You are finally here."

Hyungsik's voice drove her out of her daze, and wearing a complicated expression, she looked the other side to face the man she had been dreading to see.

As expected from the male lead, although the journey was long, there was no signs of fatigue on his face, and his appearance managed to attract attention from the passerbys.

Scoffing at that, she stared at him with scorn in her eyes while she watched him and Hyungsik make their way over to her.

Finally, he gazed in her direction, and seeing how annoyed he was, she wanted to teach him a lesson! How dare he act that way to someone who came to pick her up!

While her eyes glared at him intensely, she felt someone nudge her arm, and as she tilted her head, her eyes noticed how Minah pointed at the bouquet in her hand.

As she glanced down at it, she recalled that it was for Eunwoo, and having no intention to be polite with that man, she threw the bouquet in his direction.
