NOT THE LOVE OF DREAMS
Chapter 18's

" Love? Do you want to come with me for lunch?" Take me when lunch time comes.

" No. I'm doing some more work." Resist.

" Mah's work will be first. Eat first come on, it's lunchtime too." Take me one more time.

" Engga Aidan's. Loe walk alone, later I will buy home kimbab aja."

" Oh that, yeah. I'll go first, okay?" My pamit.

...***...

I walked down the street around the office looking for a good place to eat. Being used to eating with Cinta or sometimes using inter-messaging services makes me confused to determine what I want to eat. But the stomach has been protesting since then asked to be filled immediately.

I finally decided to enter one of the eating places in front of me. I saw there was a menu of kimbab. I decided to come in here because I thought that I could send a message to Love later.

The concept of a restaurant that I have entered is more traditional than others that already look modern. That's the one that pulled me in here.

I shifted the wooden door and found many customers inside. I saw an empty table and I sat there.

The aunt of the owner of the restaurant approached me and asked for an order. After taking down my order not to forget the order Love a set of kimbab to wrap, the aunt finally left me and asked me to wait for the order.

Not long after I was busy with my phone. I'm judging Love by sending a lot of text messages.

" Ajumma? No empty benches for one person?"

I heard the screams of a woman looking for an empty bench.

" I'm sorry, are you alone?"

Someone was standing across from my desk. I put my phone down and looked at her.

" A yes." My answer.

" May I... Eohs? Brother Aidan?"

That someone suddenly recognized me but I still did not recognize who he was even though I was watching him closely. What he obviously calls me Kak Aidan, this is definitely Indonesian.

" Nuguseyos?" I asked in Korean even though I knew she called me Kak Aidan.

" I'm Renata brother Reyhan's sister." He introduced himself. And he uses Indonesian.

" Reyhan temen college Kak Aidan. The older brother often goes to his house." Call that woman again.

" Aahhh, it's Renata who wears those glasses, right?"

I finally remembered the woman but now she was completely different from the woman in my shadow.

" He'em, finally Brother Aidan inget me too. Can I sit here, okay?"

" Oh can dong. There's nowhere else, right?" My words.

" Ahjumma, am I the same message as her well?" Shouted Renata ordering food to the aunt of the owner of the restaurant.

" Nice miss."

After Renata ordered him to sit down and put both elbows on the table. She propped up her chin with both hands while watching me intensely. I was worried about his behavior. As I recall her son used to be shy and her appearance looks cute even I often tease her because she rarely hangs out. The intention is that he can socialize more because according to Reyhan, his sister is less slang and does not have many friends. She rarely went out even every time I came to Reyhan's place, she must have always been at home even though I almost visited her house in a month while doing group work at that time.

But look at his current appearance, so fashionable even as a native Korean until I had not recognized him.

" Wae? Why do you care about me being rich?" I asked because I was uncomfortable with Renata who was glued to see me.

" Aidan is not the mysterious AK figure, right? Who recently revealed his identity?" Ask.

" yes. Why why?"

" Why is my sister in Korea? The news is that the figure of AK disappeared from the entertainment world anyway. Then the figure of AK disappeared due to move to Korea?" Ask again.

" Yes, why are you here?" I don't intend to answer the question.

" Hehe, I work here brother."

" Oh yeah? Where's?" My toot.

" In the law firm, Kak, the building is across from STAR FOOD." The answer.

" I work at Star Food." My answer.

" Oh yeah? We will often meet Dong Kak."

" Yes could be." Answer's short.

" Can I get a phone number for Aidan?"

Eventually Renata and I exchanged phone numbers. Not long after the food came and we ate it. More precisely because I can no longer resist hunger.

" sister?" Call Rena on the sidelines to eat.

" Eoh?" I answered while opening a message from Love and then replying to it. I always smile at my own smile because of Love's often nagging replies.

" Why did Aidan change that? How many years have we met." Renata.

" How did you change? My feelings are gini rich, getting older." My answer is less focus because I focus more on the message of Love.

" Yes rich brother don't get older, even more handsome."

" Ah time anyway? Loe is also prettier now. Thank goodness you can now improve your appearance." I answered without even seeing Rena.

" I've always loved Aidan."

" I used to be equally loe."

" Aidan knows what he means? Just as hard as hp." Renata was annoyed because I seemed to ignore his existence.

I who was aware of the situation immediately put down my phone and then looked at him.

" Yes sorry. So what does that mean?" My toot.

" Anything is so." Renata said.

" In a sniff."

" Why don't you think who's craving it?"

" Where is Reyhan now?" I asked to distract Renata.

" He works in Indo." The answer is a bit sloppy.

" So you're here by yourself?" My toot.

Renata nodded his head in response.

Cring... Cring...

My phone rang, I saw a screen with the name Love on it. Renata looked at my phone and I immediately picked up the phone and answered.

" Well, baby why? Was it laper?"

" Yes, sorry, but not the office anymore."

" He'em. Okay"

I finally closed the call from Love. I saw Renata looking at me with a probing look.

" His girlfriend's brother?" Ask.

" Hehe temen work."

" Why call him darling?"

I rubbed my back hair in shame.

" Hehe. I like her. Oh yes Rena? I go first, huh? There is still a lot of work to do." My pampit to him then pays the food to the aunt of the owner of the restaurant. I paid for it with Renata's.

I pat Renata on the shoulder once again to say goodbye.

" I'm going first."

" Will I go to Star Food later this afternoon?" His shouting.

I didn't hear it too much because I saw the incoming message from Love. I just gave her a thumbs up and left.

...***...

" Hey pretty?"

My head was blowing from behind the door while my body was still outside. I see Love is still focused on her work.

Feeling unresponsive, I finally entered the room while carrying the message of Love. I put the kimbab on his desk.

" Oh kamcagiya." Love was shocked as soon as I put the kimbab of her order on the table. So I said he didn't hear.

" Love, just let me." Said again.

" I've missed it from earlier too, loe it's just that it's not horrified." I then picked up the kimbab on his desk and took it to the table in front of the sofa.

" Let's go eat first." I said as I opened the package I was carrying.

" So soon, it's a little spun again."

I finally took the chopsticks and broke them in half. I took one piece of kimbab and held it with my hands so as not to fall. I walked towards Love and fed her that kimbab.

" Come on aaa." My orders.

" You don't need to bribe Aidan."

" It's a quarry, my hands are pegel." My words are then followed by Love.

Love eats my mouth.

" Us been told eng.ga needs to be bribed.pin ju.ga." Say it with a mouth full.

" Do not eat while talking."

Love obeyed my words and chewed out the kimbab and then swallowed it.

" A delicious one too. Buy where?"

" I don't know I just came in because it was confused and laper already. I just saw that there was a kimbab menu so I went in there." My answer.

" Jessi Eonni I'm sure I'll see you again. Why is he so obsessed with me?" Ask me.

" Yes how do I know. Some loe will always be able to fit in invited to meet so maybe someone wants to talk about the same noona to loe." My answer.

" She said she'd go to the office later in the afternoon. How am I even nervous?"

" Nervous why? Because you want to meet the future sister-in-law? Or because you want to meet the ex of Loe's boyfriend?" My god.

" Hish." He hit me with a ruler.

" Aww. Feelings of all the girls around me bar-bar all." I grimaced while holding my head that was hit by Love.

" Lagian Loe herself likes my temptations. Loe's looking for trouble, right?" Love reasoned.

" Oh yes, men are always wrong."

" That loe know."

" The hunt was in abisin."

" Yes young master." He stood up and went to the couch to eat while I returned to my desk.

After the meal, Cinta and I were both busy working on new projects. Plus next week the commercial filming with BTS is about to begin. Me and Love will be busy pacing back and forth.

I don't feel like time is passing. I saw the clock almost showing it's time to get home from work.

Cring... Cring...

I heard Love's phone ring and she picked it up. I watched his every move. I wonder who called him at the office like this? Not his girlfriend, right? Ah definitely not, my boyfriend, yes, even though the boyfriend lies. But I'm sure she doesn't have a boyfriend yet. But it does not rule out the possibility if there is a man who likes it?

" Yes eonni?"

I heaved a sigh of relief as he said the word eonni, at least that person is female. Oh yes, Cinta said that Noona wanted to go to her office. Maybe the one who called him was noona.

" Ah okay. I'm there, yeah?"

Love hung up.

" Who?" Kepo many.

" Dear noona loe." The answer was like insinuating and then he tidied up his bag and turned off the computer.

" Where are you going?"

" Same path noona loe. I told you that from earlier."

" I'm coming?" Then I took care of the table and turned off the laptop.

" Task noona Loe first. I'm just invited to be ethical if I invite people as well."

" Oh, I'll say." I quickly finished some of my words then walked to the bag and lined up Love.

We walked down to the lobby together.

" Love? Aidan?" Call Jessica when we get out of the elevator and into the lobby waiting room. I raised my hand to reply to Jessi, as well as Love greeting while bowing even when we were still a long distance away from Jessi. It was so polite to my girlfriend. We both sped up to Jessica.

" Sister Aidan?"

Someone I heard calling me. I looked back to find the source of the sound. I saw Renata running from the entrance of the building and approaching me.

" Renata?" Call me in a soft voice.

Suddenly Renata slid into my arms. She hugged my body tightly and leaned her head against my chest. I was so shocked by his sudden embrace, I noticed Love was looking at me.

...Pimply. What am I supposed to do now?...
