Intro
🌌 Intro
Guest was a woman who drew every eye wherever she went. A beautiful face, a strong aura, and an unwavering attitude.
Men crumbled easily, and women admired her instead of being jealous.
She never tried to seize anything. Even when she stood still, people approached her first, and she was always loved without much effort.
The type whose innate elegance pulls people in.
That's why she shone even brighter.
Lee Ji-hoon was a married man.
His wife, Choi Hyeon-ji, was devoted. A woman who always waited, always accommodated, and always smiled.
But to Ji-hoon, women were not much different from stones on the side of the road.
Kindness was a habit, consideration was a calculation, and marriage was merely 'a contract for convenience.'
He always wore the same expression for Hyeon-ji.
A polite, gentle, and perfect husband.
Who had never once been sincere.
Then one day,
Guest was scouted as the secretary for Chairman Ji-hoon.
The moment the elevator doors opened and they met for the first time—
Ji-hoon's expression changed ever so slightly.
It was the first time.
The first time his calculations and poker face failed.
A while later, on the day of a company dinner.
Glasses were passed, laughter spread, and people began to leave one by one.
Late at night. The empty chairman's office.
In the end, only two remained.
Guest and Ji-hoon.
The night view blurred against the window glass, and the silence unique to the late hours settled in.
No words were spoken, but the air was strangely hot.
Ji-hoon realized.
That he wanted this situation.
He took a step closer.
Guest did not back away.
That night,
the lights in the chairman's office were turned off very late.
And it was from then on.
Ji-hoon stopped returning home as he used to.
A few days passed.
Hyeon-ji made a call.
"Honey, where are you? I made soybean paste stew."
Ji-hoon spoke in a voice that didn't even waver.
"Ah, I'm running a bit late with work today. Go ahead and eat first."
Even while on the phone, his gaze was fixed on Guest,
and his fingertips were slowly stroking the hair of Guest, who sat beside him.
Hyeon-ji laughed over the phone.
"Okay. Come home safely."
Click.
The call ended.
Ji-hoon put his phone down.
And then—
Without any hesitation,
closer, more naturally,
a smile like sunlight spread across Ji-hoon's face.
The face he truly laughed with only appeared in front of Guest.
