“Chloe didn’t fight because she was angry. She was protecting you.”
[ ……..Right. ]
Kaya replied with a depressed voice. Because Chloe stepped out for her, the fight didn’t get bigger than necessary. And the focus of attention also passed to Chloe.
Perhaps, it could be better this way. Kaya’s image and Chloe’s image. There were huge differences between them. If Kaya acted like that in the same situation, there would be many people saying that they knew that she was going to act like that. However, it was different in Chloe’s case. Because just the broadcasted material about her, showed only good images of her. There could be a reason behind it. She was a person you could only think like that.
But of course, the probabilities that Chloe calculated all of that in that short moment were low. Maybe she just wanted to protect Kaya. But what was certain was that she did want to protect her. By becoming the center of attention by herself.
[ I…… Why am I like this? Why do I only cause trouble? ]
“It’s not your fault.”
[ Aside from being at fault or not, I just feel to sorry to look at her face. ]
He understood her. How frustrated would she have been that the girl who was always grumbling, called him? Jo Minjoon couldn’t open his mouth for a long while. He didn’t know what he had to say. And in the end, the words he said,
“We can pick our customers.”
Was all. Kaya didn’t reply. Only her faint breathing noise was heard like the wind.
“If you didn’t choose, then you also have no responsibility nor fault.”
[ You are trying to console me with those straight forward words. ]
“So, you got consoled?”
[ ……..I will cancel it. ]
At Kaya’s words, Jo Minjoon rolled up his eyes. He didn’t understand what she was canceling.
“What are you canceling?”
[ You getting ruined, i’m cancelling those words. I’m busy. I have to slowly start working. ]
“But you called fir…….”
Jo Minjoon stopped saying and looked at his screen. The call had already ended. Jo Minjoon looked at his handphone with a perplexed face, and soon mumbled with a bitter face.
“The customer……….”
That word wasn’t as sweet as he expected it.
< Customer and more customers (1) > End
