Inside the cafe.
Beautiful classical melodies flowed through the air.
The tranquil atmosphere and relaxed patrons created a peaceful, quiet weekend afternoon.
Hmm-.
[Dojae-gun~ Thank you for coming out~ It’s because I like you so much, Dojae-gun.]
“Haa…”
Dojae sighed.
Gulp-.
He moistened his parched mouth with an iced Americano.
He’d already drunk half the coffee, but the other person still hadn’t shown up.
‘Maybe I shouldn’t have agreed to meet.’
The sender of the text was the woman who had saved him from nearly getting pickpocketed the other day.
She had repeatedly asked me to meet her daughter just once, saying she wanted to introduce her to me, but I had always refused.
But the woman seemed unwilling to give up, begging me repeatedly.
Finally, she even called.
After about ten minutes of back-and-forth between her pleas and my refusals,
Impressed by the tenacity of Korean women, I ended up agreeing.
‘I wasn’t really thinking about it, but now that I’m actually going, I’m nervous.’
Even as he headed to the cafe, Dojae hadn’t given the blind date a second thought.
He’d dated a few times in the past, but it always ended badly.
His younger sibling always came before love, and work always took priority over dating.
Because of that, even the women who confessed their feelings to him never lasted more than a year.
‘I should just chat a bit and then part ways.’
Maybe that’s why, even now that his situation had improved, Dojae still had little interest in dating.
