If We Got Married

3 and a half hours before the incident

The alarm rang, its 5 am. Time to do pilates and then run on the treadmill.

Ha Eun woke up with a yawn and a smile. It felt like today was going to be a good day.

While exercising she talked on the phone with Will, an acclaimed actor who hasn't been in the spotlight after his first drama or done a live interview, just because he got a few bad reviews.

"Listen Will, I chose you because you have unimaginable talent. You can tap into into people's hearts and make them feel something for a character. Not many actors can do what you can do so easily. You are a remarkable person who has so much to offer the world, don't let a few bad reviews ruin your career…"

After pilates and talking with Will she went on the treadmill, put on some music and while she ran, she read over some paperwork for today's committee meeting.

"These old men always want to talk about the same things and questioning my position as CEO" she sighs "What a waste of time"

After the hour had passed, she jumped into the cold shower, which she finds refreshing. When she's done, she looks at herself in the mirror. She looks at her slender figure and stares at her complexion. Ha Eun takes really good care of her appearance, not that she had to, she was also blessed with beauty, but she refuses to accept that, she needs to look professional and anything less than perfect is unacceptable to her. She dried her short hair then put on a long sleeved, buttoned down dress shirt, and a black slit skirt. She put on long silver earrings, a silver watch and black heels.

"Perfect" she said to herself and walked outside.

"How are you today Madame?" he asked her, but she only answered with one word.

"Drive"

Her driver fears her as well, he knows about how many drivers shes fired for just arriving a minute after the set time to arrive, so he's been waking up early and has waited for her for an hour. He always greets her but even though she knows the answer she'll give him, he still feels like he should.

Once at work she sees how people are bustling back to their cubicles and throw away the food they have in their hands, acting as if they weren't just eating during working hours "Have to remember to fire her later" Ha Eun makes a mental note to herself.

She walks past the cubicles and goes down a long hallway reaching her office. There Chang Wook was waiting for her with one cup of coffee.

"You're early this time" she says as they both enter her office.

Chang Wook takes a deep breath. He was late once, 3 months ago because he tripped while running to work and was run over by a bike. He was on his way to get her, her coffee.

He starts to tell her about her missed messages while she looks over some paperwork on her desk "You have 2 messages, one is from the Gu Family who want to take part in the opening of the Hotel at Busan" Chang Wook hadn't finish before Ha Eun told him to delete them "The second one is from your dermatologist asking about a Q switch laser?"


"I'll call them back" she said, again interrupting him.

Chang Wook is about to leave her office when she stops him with her question "Who is Sun and why does she want me to call her?" He is shocked and realizes why the girl at the café was so adamant into making sure that he drink from that cup.

He's been caught red handed. No other choice but to tell the truth.

"That cup was mine"

"And I'm drinking your coffee, why?" she asks.

"Your coffee spilled" he said looking down. Ha Eun squints her eyes and takes a sip from the coffee.

"You also drink caramel macchiato with soy milk with extra whipped cream?"

"Of course, its delicious and its not like I buy two coffees that are exactly the same just in case yours spilled, because that is...that would be just pathetic" the phone to Ha Eun's office rings and he answers it. Saved by the bell.

"Miss Lee's office" he says. He hangs up the phone "The Chairman, he wants to see you in his office" he says to Ha Eun.
