Turning back time to Wednesday, Lee Yu-na had woken up early that day.
No, it would be more accurate to say she couldn’t sleep.
It was mostly because she couldn’t decide how she should respond to Lee Hyun-woo’s confession.
“Aww. What should I do?”
Honestly, it was not that she disliked Lee Hyun-woo at all.
But dating was a different matter altogether.
A question mark popped up in her head at the thought.
She had a crush on him, but she didn’t know if she liked him enough to date him.
This was largely due to her being a virgin at dating.
Since she had no partners for comparison, she could not understand and figure out her own feelings properly.
And her mind wasn’t in the mental framework to look at men as potential partners either.
“Haa, for now, I’ll just send a quick text asking him to wait a little bit.”
-Good morning, President.
-Can you give me a little more time to think about a response to your confession from yesterday?
Just now, she had written and deleted the message countless times.
Then, when all the extra words were removed and only the necessary content was included, she sent the text off.
And for 10 minutes she waited.
But there was no reply.
Lee Yu-na, who had been lying still as she awaited a reply, sent one more text after that.
-I’m sorry for delaying my response and being a clutz. I just wanted to think about it seriously.
There was no reply to her text this time either.
“Is he sleeping? Usually, he would have been up around this time. Maaan! Really!”
She was frustrated and annoyed.
She screamed, kicking out against the wall.
“What? What’s going on?”
“Hey, dumbo! I told you to knock before entering my room!”
“Ah! You’re crazy! Hey!? Don’t throw pillows!”
“What? Hey? Come on!”
It took a good while for her to release the pent-up announce within her.
Lee Yoo-Na released her anger by punishing her younger brother who had accidentally opened the door and entered her room.
“Phew...”
Moving her body had relieved her stress.
Lee Yu-na, who was relieved of her anger, sighed and then sat down on the bed.
Then her brother, who had been on the defence, sat down in the chair across from her.
“What’s the matter? Is it your time of the month or something?”
“What the hell?”
“Then what was that? Why is your mood so low this morning?”
‘This again!’
This was the reason why she was furious at her brother’s last words.
But she didn’t have the strength to run away from the issue like before.
“Because of the president.”
“Ah, that. Haven’t you guys decided to date?”
“Who? Me?”
“Oh, sister. I thought you were going to confirm your dating last night...”
“No. I am still thinking about it.”
“Is there anything to think about? It’s not like you’re getting married anyway. It’s just dating. Just think about it… dating for a year would go pretty quickly. SAT results are valid for 5 years!”
Her worthless brother unexpectedly tried to give her the same advice as he did previously.
Lee Yu-na also jumped on the bandwagon and answered him seriously.
“Well then, is it fine to date so casually like that? I don’t think the president is a bad person... There are a few things that I am hung up on though. One of the obvious things is the age difference. It is quite a big gap you know.”
“No way. How is that a big deal? If you look at all those celebrities, they date and get married with a 12-year or 16-year age difference. What does age difference matter? You can just have a conversation addressing it. But there is actually something else worth thinking about. I don’t know for sure what kind of person the chairman is. Besides, other than you, there are seven or eight female streams that he is a patron of. So president has six people including older sister under his wing.”
“Ah... That’s also an issue too. Ugh... I don’t know. Really...”
Surprisingly, her brother’s advice helped.
But she still didn’t reach a conclusion.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt like she was falling into a labyrinth.
If it had been an exam question, it would be easy to get an answer by substituting a formula into the equation.
But this was a really unanswerable question.
“Ah... I need to get some sleep...”
Now she was entering dangerous waking hours.
If she didn’t sleep now, she knew that there would be a problem with her performing in the evening stream.
But there was no reply coming from Lee Hyun-woo, so she couldn’t sleep.
Lee Yu-na lay in bed and stared at her smartphone without end.
At that moment, a KakaoTalk notification sound rang.
Lee Yu-na immediately confirmed who it was from.
-It’s okay. You can take your time with your answer. I’ll be waiting for you.
-Oh, by the way, I won't be able to join your stream today.
“Yes! Good.”
She had bought some time.
She didn’t have to answer the confession right away, so it felt like the burden was greatly reduced.
However, there were some strange words attached to the end of his text.
“Did he just say he can’t come to the stream?”
Lee Yu-na muttered after seeing Lee Hyun-woo’s message.
‘No way...’
Lee Yu-na replied right away with a hopeless feeling in her heart.
-Huh?
-What are you up to today?
–Or maybe… is it because I’m taking too long to answer…?
-No, lol.
–I have an appointment tonight.
– No matter how much of an unemployed bum I am, I might not be able to join your stream once in a while because of some real-world promises I made, haha.
-Ah, hehe.
-I’m sorry.
-Then, today’s stream will go ahead without your presence, chairman.
-BTW, my new tube has already reached 500 subscribers!
–My younger brother says that was too quick, but I think it’s all thanks to you, president.
–Oh, that’s good, lol.
–Hurry up and get a thousand subscribers.
-When that happens, I will give you lots of congratulatory coins.
-Yes!
-Thanks in advance.
-(Emoji of a cute character bowing down)
Finally, after sending off the final Kakaotalk text, Lee Yu-na put down her smartphone.
She had to get some sleep now.
Although the problem had not yet been resolved, at least she had some more time.
With that done, Yuna was able to fall into a sound sleep.
