TRWBU Ch 5 part 2

PR by neji

As the sunlight of dawn peeked into the room, HaYeon opened her eyes. Last night, she had a hard time falling asleep knowing that Taewan was by her side.

It felt as awkward as their first night together. Maybe it was because Taewan was lying beside her and openly staring at her. With the moonlight at his back, he gazed at her.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

At HaYeon’s question, Taewan merely responded with ‘I’m afraid it’s all a dream.’

“It’s not a dream, so just go to sleep.”

“Okay, but you go to sleep first.”

“……”

“I’m scared that if I fall asleep first, you’ll disappear.”

As if it would be a waste to even blink, he continued to stare at her. HaYeon stared back at him but fell asleep before she knew it. It was a deep sleep.

HaYeon sat up and turned her head towards the faint aroma of coffee. Taewan was standing in the kitchen.

“Why do you look like that?”

HaYeon laughed as she gazed at Taewan, who was only wearing his formal suit pants. Taewan turned around when he heard her voice.

“None of my clothes were here. And it was a bit chilly to only be wearing my underwear.”

“Ah…”

That’s when she realized that she didn’t have any of Taewan’s things at her place. He could have been disappointed and commented on how she didn’t have anything that belonged to him, but he didn’t say anything. Instead, he calmly tapped her table for two and gestured to her to come here to drink some coffee.

HaYeon walked over and sat in the seat opposite to him. He held out a warm cup of americano. HaYeon liked having a warm cup of americano in the mornings after she spent the night with Taewan. It always seemed to prove to her that this was the Kang Taewan she knew.

HaYeon took a sip and glanced up. Taewan had his chin propped in his hand as he gazed at her.

“…Aren’t you going to drink your coffee?”

“I will.”

Despite his words, he didn’t touch his cup. Now that she looked a bit closer, she noticed that he had taken a shower. He must not have used the dryer in fear that she’d wake up, so his hair was still wet. It was as if he’d just popped out of a magazine pictorial.

I should have washed up too.

HaYeon didn’t have to look in a mirror to know that she looked disheveled. Suddenly, Taewan stretched out his hand and hooked some of her hair behind her ear.

“You don’t have to wash up, so just drink your coffee.”

“How did you know? I was just thinking that.”

HaYeon looked at him in shock.

“I just thought you might be thinking it.”

“That’s amazing.”

HaYeon took another sip of her coffee.

“I can usually tell what you’re thinking. Although, my radar was a bit defective for a while.”

Taewan smiled. She could barely swallow the coffee due to the refreshing smile. Her heart fluttered at his casual words. It was as if he were telling her that the time that had stopped in their relationship was slowly flowing again.

“How did you know where my place was?”

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

“I contacted Yulhee-ssi and asked.”

Yulhee was another friend of HaYeon’s. She had come over to her place for a housewarming a while ago and knew her address.

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

“She knew we’d broken up, so it wasn’t easy getting it out of her.”

HaYeon tilted her head.

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

“It wasn’t easy, but after I kept begging her, she finally told me.”

“I see.”

HaYeon nodded her head. Now she knew why Yulhee had called her last night. However, she’d been with Taewan, so HaYeon hadn’t picked up any of her calls.

“What does your schedule look like today? Are you still allowed to stay here like this?”

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

HaYeon picked up her cup as she asked.

“I probably don’t have anything.”

For the best reading experience, visit lilyonthevalley.com

“Probably?”

HaYeon asked back suspiciously. Taewan was always on top of his daily schedule so that he could be prepared for what was to come. So when he said ‘probably’, HaYeon found it very odd. When she tilted her head, Taewan stretched out his hand and softly wiped the edge of her mouth.

“After we broke up, I couldn’t focus. I might get fired from the drama I’m shooting right now. I’ve probably been branded as an actor who can’t act. I think I’ll have to take a break for a while.” 

“……”

“Now that I have some time, should we go on a trip?”

Taewan spoke as if he were talking about someone else. His eyes narrowed playfully.

“What about your phone?”

“It disappeared. I remember having it when I called Yulhee-ssi, but… I’m not sure where it is anymore.”

HaYeon stared at him for a while before picking up her phone from the table and holding it out to him.

“No, call your manager-oppa. Ask him what the schedule is today. Tell him you’ll go to work again.”

Taewan merely gazed at her in silence.

“You say you want to succeed, but you’ve always liked this work. I don’t think it’s right for you to behave like this. I feel bad because it feels like it’s all my fault.”

HaYeon’s voice faded away.

HaYeon knew that Taewan liked being an actor and that he did his best when it came to this career. Even when he didn’t have a shoot scheduled, he’d go to meet actor seonbaes and other actors.

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

He’d take lessons from his actor seonbaes, meet with acting coaches, and when he didn’t do those things, he’d watch a movie or another drama and study the acting.

She knew that he’d gotten this far because of his hard work and practice. She didn’t want to see him ruin this career he had built just because of her. Gazing at HaYeon, Taewan slowly nodded his head.

“Okay. I don’t want to worry you. In exchange, when I get back from meeting my manager-hyung, let’s go on a date.”

“Date? Shall we watch a movie at home?”

HaYeon began to try and see which movies she had available on demand.

“Let’s go to the movie theater.”

“There’s a movie I want to see. It looks like it’ll be fun.”

Taewan said with a strange expression.

“The theater is too dangerous. People will definitely recognize you, and…”

HaYeon spoke in a worried tone, but Taewan cut her off. His eyes, which had been resting on the cup of coffee, looked up at her. They gleamed.

“I noticed that it’s been two years since we last went to the movies.”

“……”

“We haven’t been able to go since I debuted. We couldn’t go on trips, and I don’t think we’ve ever gone to a cafe. It was either the car or home. Do you know how much I regretted that?”

Because she loved him, HaYeon had to stay confined at home. He realized that it was expected given his line of work, but it had become something she had to endure.

“I didn’t do anything when I was home and waiting for you to call. One minute felt like ten years.”

“……”

“And you probably felt like that everyday.”

Taewan’s eyes turned dark.

“And that’s when I realized. We’ve been dating for over ten years, but it didn’t even amount to three years of a normal relationship. Let’s stop hiding now. Let’s do everything we want to do.”

“But…”

HaYeon’s expression looked grave. An actor who was single could only maintain his popularity if he remained that way. His agency would definitely have a problem with it, and it was also possible that one of his contracts contained a clause that prohibited him from getting into any kind of scandal.

“I want to see you happy now.”

Taewan spoke up. At his words, the dizzying thoughts inside her head flew away. HaYeon looked at him with silent eyes. Taewan opened his mouth once again.

“Don’t worry about other people. Just focus on us.”

“Only focus on Na HaYeon’s Kang Taewan and Kang Taewan’s Na HaYeon.”

His eyes were still. She could see that he’d thought about this a lot. Therefore, HaYeon decided not to worry about it and slowly nodded her head.

“Okay.”

When he heard HaYeon’s reply, Taewan gave her a bright smile. Then he lifted his cup of coffee.

It was just another peaceful morning.

“I’ve aged about ten years because I haven’t gotten a wink of sleep, but you look like you’re in good condition. Do you know how many things I’ve wanted to say to you once I saw you again? Are you going through puberty? Why are you acting out? You were never like this before. Are you releasing all this rebellious energy at once this year? I’m definitely not going to be in charge of you next year!”

YoungSik barged into Taewan’s home after receiving his call. As soon as he entered, he began to spew bitter remarks. But it must not have soothed any of his pent-up anger because his hands were still on his hips as he panted for breath.

Last night, because Taewan hadn’t said a word when he received his Best Actor award, the internet was in an uproar. The reporters were in a frenzy as they made up all kinds of possible reasons for his behavior.

Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

The public was split fifty-fifty. Some felt that it was incredibly rude of him to remain silent when he received his award, but others thought he had been too overwhelmed with emotion, so they asked everyone to be understanding.

Taewan didn’t settle this situation and simply disappeared. No one knew where he went. They called him, but he had left his cell phone on the table in his VIP room.

Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

They thought he had received someone’s call and left in a hurry, but when they tried to go through his phone, it was locked with a passcode, so they weren’t able to check.

Kang Taewan disappeared into the night. The next morning, YoungSik received a call from an unknown phone number. Taewan told him that he’d be heading home now, and asked that he come to see him there a little later.

Please visit lilyonthevalley.com to support the translator

YoungSik frantically rushed over to Taewan’s home. Taewan must have just arrived as well because he was in the middle of taking off his suit. He told YoungSik that he was going to get changed and asked him to wait a moment. Then he reappeared in some comfortable clothing and sat down on the sofa.

“Hyung.”

“What!”

When Taewan called, YoungSik shouted out in anger. His usually calm face was filled with rage.

“Why are you apologizing all of a sudden? You’re freaking me out! What’s going on? Are you going to do something else? Are you going to just give up on your career? Fuck, I don’t know anymore. Do whatever you want! I’ll contact the director and tell him that we’re going to cancel your contract. Just cough up the cancellation fee. I can’t take this anymore!”

Unable to endure this any longer, YoungSik began to spit out curses.

“Today, HaYeon and I are going on a date at the movie theater. And we’re also planning on going on a trip soon. If we want to take a walk together, we’re going to take a walk. We’re not going to avoid other people’s eyes anymore.”

“What?”

YoungSik stammered as if he’d lost the ability to speak. Taewan looked as if he’d already made up his mind. YoungSik took a few deep breaths and finally managed to speak.

“So are you guys back together again?”

Taewan nodded his head.

“And now you’re going to date publicly? Do you think it’ll be that easy? It won’t just be hard on you. It’ll be hell for HaYeon, too. Everyone’s focus will be directed towards HaYeon. Instead of her name, she’ll be known as Kang Taewan’s lover. How can she cope with all that? I’m sure this won’t happen, but what if you two break up? Then what are you guys going to do? In that case, you won’t be the one who will suffer. It’ll be HaYeon.”

When YoungSik saw Taewan’s blank face, he closed his mouth shut. He was right. Taewan lowered his eyes and slowly opened his lips.

“When I received the award last night, I wasn’t happy at all. It was merely heavy. I recalled all the things I’d lost in order to obtain this. I lived and did my best in order to be happy, but happiness seemed to elude me. Because I continued to push off my happiness, I forgot what happiness was. And I made HaYeon go through this dreadful phase as well.

“Hyung, if I can, I want to return my trophy in exchange for having those two years back. If I can go back two years, I think I can do my best to love her.”

“So don’t tell us to hide anymore. I don’t think I can do it anymore.”

Taewan spoke in a steady tone and finally lifted his head. He had a determined expression on his face as if he had already made up his mind.

YoungSik opened his mouth and closed it again. He knew he should try to persuade Taewan otherwise, but he couldn’t.

Taewan said he wanted to be happy, and YoungSik didn’t know what to say to that. He could see that Taewan had, at some point, stopped enjoying his work. He felt anxious just watching him from the sidelines.

And it was terrifying.

Standing in front of a mirror, HaYeon turned from side to side. She took off the fur hat she was wearing. Instead, she put the baseball cap she had just taken off a few moments ago and lowered it as far as it would go.

When she put on a mask with the baseball cap, her face was completely hidden. Finally, she looked over her outfit and glanced at the clock on the wall. There was only a little bit of time left before the appointed time. She turned around and saw the Best Actor trophy on the table.

A few hours ago, after HaYeon had come out from washing up, she discovered that Taewan wasn’t there. Instead, she found his trophy. There was a post-it stuck underneath it.

I felt that if I saw you come out after washing up, I wouldn’t want to leave you. I’ll call you later. And this is your gift.

After reading the post-it, HaYeon immediately texted Taewan.

[The Best Actor trophy is yours. Why are you giving this to me? I’ll bring it with me when I leave to meet you.]

– Take it as my apology for not saying your name yesterday when I received it. So make sure you come out at the promised time today. I’ll be waiting.

And then he hung up. HaYeon stared at the trophy on the table. She didn’t feel comfortable touching it in fear of getting her fingerprints on it.

It was one of his life’s goals. The evidence of his glory was now in her hands. HaYeon lifted her hand and carefully brushed her hand along the trophy.

It was cold and hard. It felt good. HaYeon’s lips stretched into a smile.

After a few more moments of blankly staring at the trophy, HaYeon left her apartment when it was time to leave. When she got out, she saw Taewan’s car parked in front.

“I agreed to meet with the drama director tomorrow.”

When she heard this, HaYeon looked relieved and nodded her head. His car began to head to the underground parking garage of a movie theater that was situated on a major street. She thought they’d be going to a more secluded location, so this was unexpected. When Taewan was about to exit the car, she quickly grabbed him.

Taewan answered as he looked at the various movie posters. He was avoiding her eyes on purpose. In the meantime, more and more people began to recognize him.

When they discovered that he was holding her hand, their eyes naturally went to her. They began to murmur as they wondered who the woman was.

At his comment, she recalled something from the past. The moments when they had come to the movie theater to watch a movie. They would cry together, grow tense together in serious moments. At the time, these moments didn’t seem to mean much, but now they were so novel.

After thinking it over for a bit, HaYeon tightened her grasp on his hand instead of asking to leave. He was doing his best, and she wanted to be brave for him.

After watching the movie at the theater, HaYeon and Taewan avoided the people who were following them and began to head over to a restaurant. HaYeon was the one who had chosen the restaurant.

She had been here with Jiyoon before. Dividers were installed between the booths. The employee looked shocked to see Taewan, but they quickly calmed down and took their order. When their food came out, HaYeon finally took off her hat and mask.

It was the first time she felt comfortable after coming out for their date. HaYeon gazed at Taewan across the table. She found it so unfamiliar to see him illuminated in the sunlight that was peeking through the windows. At some point, she had only become used to seeing him at home.

As he ate his meal, he must have noticed HaYeon’s gaze and looked up. When their eyes met, he smiled. It was a clean, pure smile. It resembled the Taewan she knew in high school, and it made her heart flutter.

After they finished eating, they went to a cafe. Taewan behaved like a man with a resolution. He didn’t seem to care if he caught other people’s eyes.

When someone recognized him, they’d take a photo of him, but he acted as if he didn’t notice. At first, HaYeon hesitated, but ultimately, she ended up following him.

She didn’t show it, but she also felt that it was a bit of a thrill. Walking with Kang Taewan as they held hands, drinking sweet coffee at a cafe as much as they wanted, looking into each others’ eyes as they spoke about nothing at all.

After drinking their tea, they left the cafe. As the sky grew darker, the streetlights began to flicker on.

Instead of returning home, Taewan asked to walk around a little. HaYeon nodded. As if he’d been waiting for this, he grabbed her hand. He didn’t let go as if he were on a date for the very first time.

As they walked away from the busy street and into a more secluded neighborhood, there were rarely any pedestrians in sight. Due to the cold weather, they were all gathered inside cafes.

They were the only two people holding hands and walking in the dark. As they moved one foot in front of the other, a cold wind blew past them.

The loosely fitted cap flew off HaYeon’s head. Taewan walked over to the cap and picked it up for her.

“Thanks.”

He received a call from his agency very quickly after. After telling reporters that they were ‘in the middle of confirming it with him’, they remained silent. After that, the CEO and director all called Taewan, but Taewan didn’t answer as if he had planned this all along.

They tried to block it in any way possible. However, every ten minutes, a new photo would pop up. The two of them sitting across from each other. The two of them holding hands. Even a photo of them getting in the car.

Unable to deny it any longer, his agency acknowledged that Kang Taewan was in a relationship.

They remained silent about the woman in question, but the public successfully found out that it was ‘Na HaYeon’. Not a day passed by when it became known that the two of them had been classmates in high school. Reports began to speculate that they had been dating for a long time.

Early in the morning, the CEO grasped his head in frustration, and the director was deep in thought. There was nothing else they could do other than accept this situation. They chain smoked up on the roof and didn’t come down.

“I’m growing old because of you. Do you know how many times the director cursed at me, asking me if I’d known all along? Huh? Just thinking about last night makes my blood run dry.”
