7 Years Later
Yoona stood up, then tidied up her blazer. Then with a gentle smile she extended her hand to the old man - her client. An executive businessman who is in need of his services to win a case of corporate brand name.
Such a case is not easy, but for Yoona it is not so. Such cases are commonly handled. Imitate another company's product and claim it belongs to his company. Handling such cases has become a daily food for Yoona.
“well. Excuse me first”, said the old man. Yoona led the old man to the door of his room. After the door closed again, he smiled broadly. Her profession is more fun than being a doctor.
After 7 years, Yoona has become a lawyer at a large and very famous law firm. His expertise in law is beyond doubt. Many clients have been chasing Yoona to help in the cases that befall them.
Even Mrs Im – Yoona's mother, has repeatedly asked Yoona to join her law firm. But Yoona always refused and said she wanted to be independent. After all, Yoona thought about what was the difference between working in her mother's law firm and other law firms. His mother still controls what cases he can accept.
The case that Yoona rarely accepts is a political one. Lady Im does not allow Yoona to deal with politics. Yoona had already tried to accept one client who was a regional official. The case was easy at first. Just a good name offender. Yoona accepts the client without her mother's knowledge.
The case eventually led to politics and corruption. Yoona was upset at her client for lying to her from the beginning. Want Yoona to cancel the cooperation. But Yoona thought, such a thing is not professional.
Madam Im who finally found out about the case also scolded Yoona all out. But Mrs Im still helps Yoona. Divides his experience if he has to face a client who is actually guilty. Yoona was very lucky for her mother's help.
Speaking of Mrs Im, the woman had already spent more time with the family. And she has to admit Yoona is a good lawyer. Much better than he used to be when he started his career as a rookie lawyer.
Madam Im can also see Yoona who is smart in managing her time by working, family, even for herself. Yoona really showed herself to be able to live her life well. Madam Im was proud of her daughter.
Yoona threw her body in her soft chair. Her guest today was finally finished as well. From the morning Yoona always has guests and appointments with her clients until she misses her lunch.
“aku hungry”, complains Yoona as she rubs her stomach. Yoona opens her desk drawer, looking for the restaurant brochures her secretary gave her a few days ago.
Yoona flipped through some of the brochures in disinterest. There was no food that was of interest to him. Until the last brochure he saw jjajangmyeon. He also remembered something.
Yoona quickly grabbed her phone and searched for someone's contact number there. After finding it, Yoona directly pressed the call button.
Yoona moved her legs, looking impatient, waiting until someone across the street picked up the phone.
[annyeonghase. The Jjajangmyeon Shop. There is something we can help], said a woman who has been very familiar with Yoona's voice.
“annyeonghaseo. It's me Im Yoona”
[oh. Yoon-yeah. It's been a long time since you came to visit] exclaimed the middle-aged woman across there – Donghae's mother.
Yoona does visit Donghae's family's shop quite often even though Donghae is not there. Yoona didn't come there to seek attention from Donghae's family. He just came there to eat jjajangmyeon. Because for Yoona there is no one who can match the delicacy of jjajangmyeon belonging to the Donghae family. Yes, even though every time you come there, Yoona is always treated specifically. That was just an extra point for Yoona.
“forgive me. Lately my work has been doing a lot of ajumma. If there is time I will visit with omma”, said Yoona.
[well. So what did you call the store?]
“aku hungry ajumma. I did not have time for lunch because of the arrival of Guests”, complained Yoona in a spoiled tone. After that came Donghae's mother's laughter.
[ck.. You can't miss your lunch even if it's a lot of work. But happy, ajumma will prepare a special super big package for you]
“ne. kamsahamnida ajumma”, reply Yoona with passion.
[oh yes yesterday Donghae called]
Hearing Donghae's name, it was like there was a small sting on his chest. He's feeling happy. Yoona also fixed her seat.
“what is she going home?”, asked Yoona in a relaxed tone even though she really wanted to scream happy.
[ajumma doesn't know. He just said his contract would be completed there]
Hearing that Yoona instantly went limp. Why is it so hard for Donghae to come home. Though the man was done with his studies and the contract of work as a service there, it was completed a year ago.
[oh Yoona, we'll go on. There are customers coming. You take it easy, ajumma will send you some food as soon as possible]
“ne ajumma's. Kamshamnida”
After thanking her, Yoona disconnected her phone. Then the phone screen flashes there is a notification. But instead of opening the notification, Yoona actually propped up her chin while staring at the screen of her phone that showed Donghae's deep face. Yoona took the photo secretly while she was in the ward after a 7-year theft. The man waited for her to fall asleep.
“ck...”, Yoona's sizzle as her phone notifications kept ringing, bothering her to look at Donghae's handsome face that became her phone wallpaper.
Angrily Yoona opened the notification. It turns out that the High School alumni chat group. There's been a lot of chatter there. Yoona was already lazy to read one by one. He just skimmed through.
“oh yes. I almost forgot”, said Yoona just remembered that tomorrow is the reunion of her 3rd class High School. Once 2 years is indeed a high school alumni doing a reunion. Sometimes in a club, a restaurant. And this time it was in the hall of Kirin High School.
It just so happened to be on summer vacation, so the High School hall building was not used. Yoona was quite amazed by the persistence of the committee from the reunion to keep trying to get a reunion at Kirin High School straight away.
Yoona opens the map on her desk. His work schedule which has been arranged in such a way by his secretary is on the map. Looking at her schedule tomorrow, Yoona thinks she can leave the office by noon. But thinking of a boring reunion by watching a documentary with their school days again is also inefficient.
Actually just the one that Yoona expected so she was willing to come to the reunion. Of course Donghae. He hoped that the man would also come to the reunion. But until 2 times the reunion event was held, Donghae never came.
“And it seems like this time he will not come”, Yoona said in a sad tone. He misses that guy very much. But given Donghae's mother's words, the man was still there, and didn't know when to go home.
“basic sucks”, annoyed Yoona. But he looked back at his phone screen, showing Donghae's face, and Yoona smiled again.
Occasionally swiped the screen of his phone as if he was wiping Donghae's real face. That was how Yoona had been facing her growing sense of longing for the man.
Every day Yoona always waits for the man to call her or give her news. But until 7 years had passed, not once had the man contacted him. Not even a line of words.
Yoona could have actually contacted the man. Yoona can request Donghae's mobile number from her mother. But the prestige is too mastered, so he misses for 7 years like a fool.
)))))(((((
Despite Yoona's expectations, her schedule changed the next day. His work was solid until the afternoon. But it was not a problem because Yoona had decided not to go to the reunion event. So he just took care of the schedule given by his secretary earlier.
Yoona's job today is dominated by meeting clients, and there are two cases that go into the courtroom. The case is not too heavy. Yoona has prepared evidence and witnesses for her client's defense.
The first trial was smooth. But when the second trial, suddenly the trial schedule was postponed to an hour. Yoona's office, far from the court office, forced Yoona to remain in the court office. If he comes home too much time.
With a cup of coffee, Yoona sits in the lobby of the court office. Every now and then he checked again the – ingredients of his trial. Her client currently chooses to sleep. Once in a while Yoona hears snoring from the man beside her. It was actually very disturbing to him. But Yoona can't do anything.
Yoona decides to put her trial materials back in the bag and opens the phone. It turns out that there are a lot of notifications from alumni chat groups. Yoona opened it. At first seen the photos of the preparation of the committee who was decorating the hall. But the rest only contains chat-chat is not important from other alumni.
Yoona deactivated her phone when she saw the judge had arrived and headed for the courtroom. Yoona quickly wakes up her client.
Yoona invites her client to come into the courtroom. Before she entered, Yoona took a deep breath, then exhaled. He needs to refocus.
)))))(((((
At 4pm Yoona was able to rest a little more quietly. Today's work is almost done. Only one more schedule Yoona has to work on is to check the case files that happened 3 years ago. Because the case that he will face tomorrow is being tried to reopen the old case.
Yoona stretched her body muscles. Until his secretary came and gave some piles of case files 3 years ago. Yoona was quite dizzy looking at that pile of files. Yoona thought she could relax a little more, but it turned out that her work did not let her take a little break.
“ini will not increase again right?”, said Yoona confirmed to her secretary.
“of course not. But if you want more reference material, one big box is ready for me to deliver to your room”, replied the secretary. Yoona smiled wryly. Indeed his secretary was great for the matter of looking for a case reference. Yoona was even overwhelmed to read all the references she gave.
“no need. I finished this one first”, reject Yoona while patting the pile on her desk.
After the secretary left, Yoona began reading the files. Every now and then he records strange things and some info he didn't know before, he searches for it on search engines.
Until it did not feel like half an hour he was struggling with the files. But he accidentally stares at the wheel on his desk. He marked the date today with a heart symbol. Where he hopes to meet the owner of his heart – at the school reunion event.
Curious about what happened at the reunion ceremony, Yoona took her phone from the bag. And he just realized from earlier that he did not activate his phone back.
Once the phone is active immediately many notifications are dominated by alumni groups and some calls from unknown numbers. Yoona ignored the call from the unknown number. He switched to his alumni chat group.
Yoona's eyes rounded when the chat in the group was over 999+. Yoona was increasingly curious about what the alumni discussed until the chat as much as that.
As usual, the contents of things are not important and temptations to each other because some alumni who had dated when the school period was reunited. Once in a while Yoona laughed reading the temptations of her friends. Until some photos began to be sent, showing the condition of the reunion event.
Yoona opened up some photos that were a little interesting to her. Someone sent a stage photo that Yoona thought was very good. Some send photos in groups and pairs.
Yoona laughed out loud when she saw a picture of Sehun being forced to take a picture with a woman in sexy clothes. Yoona doesn't remember who the woman is and what class she belongs to. Yoona zooms in on the image to clarify Sehun's frightened face, which makes Yoona laugh even more.
But suddenly Yoona's laughter stopped when photographed that she saw a man who was accidentally caught on camera. The man's face was only visible from the side. Yet somehow Yoona was pounding now. Because it is not so clear, Yoona looking for another –photo photo until the hand stops moving on the screen of her phone.
Yoona fell silent stiff when she saw the photos of some of her classmates first – class A. And one of them is the person most Yoona is waiting for – Donghae.
Donghae turns out to be at the reunion. Yoona doesn't know how the story is about the man being there, whereas just yesterday Donghae's mother said Donghae is still in America and hasn't come home yet. But now the man is at a reunion.
Yoona quickly grabbed her bag and car keys. He couldn't waste his chance this time to meet Donghae. If necessary Yoona will lock the man up, so as not to leave again.
“Im Yoona, where do you want to go?”, Yoona's secretary said when she saw Yoona coming out of her room in a hurry.
“mianhae unnie's. There's something very important I have to do. I promise the files will be finished reading tomorrow morning before the trial of”, Yoona's appointment and back out of the office. He did not even care about the gaze of the firm employee was looking at him strangely.
Yoona pressed the elevator button because it wasn't open. Yoona has no time. The reunion has been going on for 2 hours. You can be sure at this time the show is almost finished.
Having no choice, Yoona runs towards the emergency exit. Down three floors through the emergency stairs. With his long legs, he descended the stairs quickly. Upon arrival at the lobby, his breathing was already breathless. He quickly headed for the parking lot.
After getting into her car, Yoona drove her car above average. On his way several times he overtook another car haphazardly. Fortunately there was no traffic police so the girl was safe.
“sial. Why didn't anyone tell me she came to the show”, annoyed Yoona while hitting her car driver. But his eyes remained focused on the streets.
