"I just woke up by 4AM tomorrow then!" She said. It won't be a nice idea if they will be living in one house like they were co-habiting.

"Okay then!" Lee Jin Ho shrugged his shoulder and left Tan Ja Nin. He went to his room and changed into his everyday clothes. He wore a t-shirt and a sweat pants

He saw Tan Ja Nin who was comfortably sitting at the couch while fiddling with her phone when he went back to the living room. He frowned when Tan Ja Nin did not even felt his presence when he walked past her when he went directly to the kitchen to cook something for dinner. She seems so immersed on what she was looking at her phone.

It was because Tan Ja Nin was busy browsing for a breakfast recipe that she have to prepare for Lee Jin Ho the next day. She didn't know his preference if he wanted a full breakfast meal or just a light meal.

"Jin Ho...!" She called out his name while she was still browsing for a recipe. Her voice was loud enough to be heard by the man in the kitchen.

"Yes?" Lee Jin Ho answered and was a bit surprised

"What do you want for breakfast tomorrow?" Tan Ja Nin was a bit shocked when she heard his voice from the kitchen. Since when did he go there and started cooking? She was that immersed by what she was doing for her not be aware of her surrounding earlier? She stood up and went to the kitchen. "Do you want a full breakfast meal or just a light meal?"

"Anything just ensure that it is edible." Lee Jin Ho said mockingly.

Tan Ja Nin made a pout and sat at the dining table and continued browsing at the internet.

"Uhmm, I won't be able to prepare for your lunch tomorrow!" She said when she remember something.

"Why?" Lee Jin Ho asked

"I have a whole day acting workshop tomorrow to catch up for the lessons I wasn't able to attend on the last three days"

"Why?"

"It was because..." She suddenly stopped. If she told him the reason he would know how she has been deeply affected by the rift between them over the advertisement contract. "I just don't feel like it!"

Lee Jin Ho furrowed his brows. "Are you really serious when you joined the industry?"

"...."

"Because if your serious enough you should not missed the acting workshop because you just don't feel like it!" Lee Jin Ho chided her.

She bit the lower part of her lips. "Yeah, I know I was wrong, but I promised Manager Mo that I will not miss a single session anymore"

"Good!" Lee Jin Ho said as if he was talking to a child. "For how long are you going to attend the acting workshop?"

"Four weeks!" Tan Ja Nin answered.

"And you should be finished by when?"

"By the third week of this month!"

Lee Jin Ho nodded, by that time, she could already start filming the commercial.

"What are you cooking?" Tan Ja Nin asked.

"Vegetable paella. It's almost done." Lee Jin Ho said.

"Vegetable?" Tan Ja Nin was stunned.

"Yes, why?" Lee Jin Ho asked.

"I don't like vegetable."

"...."

"I mean I eat vegetable but it's not my favorite." Tan Ja Nin said when she realized that she was being picky, but should Lee Jin Ho have asked for her preference first?

"What do you want then?" Lee Jin Ho asked.

"I want pasta!"

"If I cook pasta, it will take another 30 minutes before we can have dinner."

Tan Ja Nin looked at her wrist watch. It was 10:15 in the evening. If she will insist to have pasta for dinner. They can probably eat by quarter to eleven, and it was already too late. She needs to be home before 12MN because she needs to wake up as early as 4AM.

"Let's have that vegetable paella then!" She said.

Lee Jin Ho looked at Tan Ja Nin. She doesn't have anything on her stomach since lunch, so if she doesn't like vegetable that much, she could probably eat just a portion of it. He must stuffed something into her stomach.

"If you don't like vegetable, you don't have to force yourself to eat it. I'll cook pasta for you!"

"But it's going to be too late for dinner. I need to come home before 12MN so I can sleep at least 4 hours before I wake up at 4AM."

"Then stay here for tonight!" Said Lee Jin Ho

"...."

"Look, you need to eat and fill your stomach! The pasta will be ready by 10:45PM, we can have dinner by then and you can rest after you finish your meal and can already sleep by 12MN. You don't have to have wake by 4AM since you are already here. You can wake up 5AM so it will give you at least 5 hours sleep"

"But..."

"But what? Are you afraid that I might be doing something to you?"

Tan Ja Nin face blushed. How come this man was so straightforward. She can't just say those words directly to him.

"As if I will let you do something to me." She sneered.

"Right, something can only happen if the two parties allowed it!" Lee Jin Ho said, teasing her. As if he was telling her that it's up to her if she want something to happen between them.

Her whole body has started to feel the heat with the thought.

"Why you dont want to sleep here? Are you afraid of yourself that you cannot hold it in?" Lee Jin Ho asked teasingly.

"Of course not! I was just wondering where am I going to sleep here. You only have one room and one bed"

"I'm okay to share my bed with you tonight!"

"Jin Ho!" She said outloud and her eyes wide open.

Lee Jin Ho laughed. "I am just kidding. I can sleep at the couch!"

"You're too big to sleep in the couch!" Tan Ja Nin blurted out.

"Too big?"

Tan Ja Nin face blushed again. "I mean look at your size!"

"My size?"

Tan Ja Nin hissed while her face was so red. "I mean looked at your body built. You won't fit into the couch."

"Then what should we do then?"

"I'll sleep on the couch!" Tan Ja Nin said.

"So does it mean that you're going to stay here for tonight?"

"Well your suggestion makes sense. I need more sleeping time especially that I'm going to have a whole day acting workshop tomorrow!"

Lee Jin Jo curled up his lips. "Sleep in the bed tonight! I sleep on the floor!"

"...."

"I'm not a gentleman if I let a beautiful lady like you sleep on the couch or on the floor while I was comfortably sleeping at the bed."

Tan Ja Nin lips curled up because she was touched.

"I have another problem" She said.

"What?"

"I need to change my clothes. I cannot sleep with the same clothes I'm wearing right now."

"Wear my t-shirt then!"

Tan Ja Nin nodded.

"Anything else?" Lee Jin Ho asked.

"Nothing else."

"Okay, give me 30 more minutes to cook your pasta but help me set up the table now!"

"Okay!" Tan Ja Nin said as she stood up to get plates and utensils.

Lee Jin Ho looked at her and can't help but smile.

.....

"Wow, this is delectably good!" Tan Ja Nin said while she was eating the chicken alfredo that Lee Jin Ho cooked.

"You like it?" Lee Jin Ho asked. He was pleased to see her satisfied face.

"Uhm. So tasty!" Tan Ja Nin said as she stuffed pasta into her mouth.

"Eat slowly." Lee Jin Ho said as he chuckled.

"Forgive me but I just feel so hungry now!"

"Okay but take your time, you might get choked!" Lee Jin Ho warned her.

And choked she did. Lee Jin Ho immediately gave her some water.

"I told you!" Lee Jin Ho said.

Tan Ja Nin was so embarrased. Where did her finesse go in front of this man?

Lee Jin Ho looked at her and was amused. He really liked it that Tan Ja Nin was so comfortable in front of him that she forgot how to act like a lady. She was so natural and so charming.

Tan Ja Nin looked at Lee Jin Ho and was stunned when she saw that he was staring deeply at her as if his eyes was a microscope and she was the microbiotic that he wanted to study.

Her heart suddenly beat so fast and started to panic. She carelessly stuffed a big amount of pasta into her mouth.

She slowly lowered her head, but Lee Jin Ho stood up and lowered his head. He slowly raised her chin. She looked at him and was stunned especially when he came more closer to her and his fingers touched her face.

Thump. Thump. Thump.

Was he going to kiss her?
