Tan Ja Nin had already left Lee Jin Ho"s car but he did not start driving away yet. His car remained parked in front of Tan Ja Nin"s apartment. Inside the black bentley, was the guy who was still furious inside. This woman was really too much and has the nerve to really date another guy.
Bo Yu?
Who was that guy?
There was only one guy that he knew has a Bo Yu name. It was his senior brother when he was in Yan High School. He was a two years older than him.
He was one of his idols back then in Yan High School because he was so good in Math and he loved numbers too.
He straightened his back. Was he the same Bo Yu that Tan Ja Nin was discussing with Ho Min Lin earlier over the phone.
He doesn"t want to eavesdrop but he heard that Tan Ja Nin mentioned about dinner date, he can"t help but listened to everything that she said afterwards.
Ming"s Garden. 8PM. Bo Yu.
Lee Jin Ho took another glance at Tan Ja Nin"s apartment before he leaves the place.
.....
Tan Ja Nin wasn"t in a good mood after Lee Jin Ho has brought her back to her aparment. Aside from the embarra.s.sment that she experienced earlier she could not fathom why Lee Jin Ho seems to be cold to her during the entire journey. He was quiet the whole time and the only time she spoke with her was when he asked her complete home address.
Everything"s went well before that incident inside his car. When she had thought that he was about to kiss her. They had casual conversation during meal and he seems to be friendly with her by giving her some good advices but what"s with the cold face on their journey back to the city. Did he offend him in any way? She was just having a conversation with Ho Min Lin inside the car when suddenly he moved closer to her. So close that she has mistaken his action. Does closing her eyes while he helped fastened her seatbealt a crime? When she thought he would kiss her?
She sighed when she realized that her reaction earlier was off. She should not a.s.sumed that Lee Jin Ho wanted to kiss her. Does he became cold because he realized that he was waiting for his kiss and he doesn"t want to give her a false hope that he was interested on her?
Ahhh. She covered herself with a quilt and tried to relax by getting an afternoon nap.
.....
Tan Ja Nin was sitting across Bo Yu at the dining table at Ming"s Garden. Now that she finally saw him again, her memory was refreshed. He was that senior brother that she encountered in the Math Festival that was held in Yan High School which she attented to. She was in Grade 10 at that time while he was in Grade 12. He was the chief master of the said event and she was quite impressed with his talent in Math.
Bo Yu have shared some other events that their path have crossed from before. He said he was also there during Ho Min Lin"s 18 birthday party. He also said that he always picked up Ho Min Li in several occasions that she was with her.
She just smiled at him and could not say that she had no recollection about those instances before but she remembered that Ho Min Lin had told her one time that her cousin brother wanted to score a date with her when they were in highschool but she did not accept the invitation because her world only revolves around with Yan Mor Tee at that moment. No other men could come closer to him but him.
But now that she planned to forget Yan Mor Tee, she gave Bo Yu a chance to date her and his qualification wasn"t bad at all.
She learned from their conversation that Bo Yu owned an IT company which should be expected of him given that he was a Math genius.
She also learned that Bo Yu has dated some celebrities when she mentioned that she will be entering show business anytime soon.
When it comes to physical appearance, Bo Yu can also be lined-up to the likes of Lee Jin Ho.
Tan Ja Nin was astounded when all of the sudden she thought of Lee Jin Ho and wanted to laugh at herself when she realized that.
"So what kind of genre do you want to pursue in acting?" Bo Yu asked her
"Any genre will do, but I would like to be part of any histotical drama if given a chance. I always wanted to watch a film that was shoot in a historical locations."
"What is you favorite historical drama?"
"I like that Empresses in the Palace. It was an old historical drama aired in 2011."
"Wow! How old are you back then?"
"I was fifteen."
"Most of the female of your age before would go watch a teeny bopper series but you were into a historical drama, that"s quite interesting."
"My twin brother told me that I must been a queen before in my past life that"s why I have a thing for this kind of drama"
Bo Yu laughed histerically. "Yeah could be!"
She laughed at that ridiculous theory too.
"Seriously, you really look like a queen, and you really got the look to enter s...o...b..z." Bo Yu said and he looked at her hazily. "Given the right project you will surely make it to stardom!"
Tan Ja Nin smiled at him shyly.
"What"s the name of the media company that you have signed the contract with?"
"YH Entertainment."
"YH Entertainment, I think I knew some celebrities from that media company"
"Could be your girlfriend?" She asked teasingly.
"I"m single now. I dated a few celebrities before but none of them level up into a more serious relations.h.i.+p."
"Why?"
"Maybe because deep inside my heart, I knew that there was a girl I met in High School and she was the one I wanted to be with in the first place. I"ve got a huge crush on her."
Tan Ja Nin bowed her head when she realized that he was pertaining at her and excused herself because she don"t at ease at all.
When she stood up and went to the washroom, a familiar silhouette was standing near at the male washroom.
"Jin Ho?!"
The man turned around and was surprised to see her. "Tan Ja Nin! What are you doing here?"
"I.. I have a casual dinner with Ho Min Lin"s brother cousin who happens to be someone I knew from the past"
"Ah so you"re having a date?" His tone was that of someone who was accusing his girlfriend who was doing something wrong behind his back.
"Uhm...it is just a casual dinner!"
"I see."
"What are you doing here?" Tan Ja Nin asked.
Lee Jin Ho scoffed icyly "I also have a casual dinner from someone I knew from the past."
Tan Ja Nin nodded.
"Enjoy then."
"Yeah, enjoy your casual dinner too"
.....
Tan Ja Nin"s mood became sour the moment she stepped into the ladies room.
Of all people that she could b.u.mped into, it was Lee Jin Ho!
And did he say that he was here because he was having a casual dinner from someone from the past.
Is that someone a man or a woman?
She wanted to know. She fixed her make up and went back to the dining area.
She looked around and easily spotted Lee Jin Ho from the crowd.
He was sitting on were she was seated earlier and was surprised when she saw that he was discussing chummily with Bo Yu?
Did he know Bo Yu too?
And where was his date?
Was the someone he was referring to was Bo Yu?
But Bo Yu was her date?
She went back to the table because she was curious to know.
Bo Yu smiles at her and said "Tan Ja Nin looked who I saw earlier. My junior brother Lee Jin Ho from Yan High School."
Junior Brother?
So they knew each other.
"Yeah, I knew Lee Jin Ho, I also b.u.mped into him when I went to the restroom, he was my gradeschool cla.s.smate back then."
"Small world! I"ve got to meet two of my favorite people in Yan High School!" Said Bo Yu with too much excitement from his voice.
But when Tan Ja Nin looked at Lee Min Ho, he was greeted by his cold and icy look and stood up.
"I"ve to go back to my table now. My casual date went inside the washroom and might be on her way back! Nice to see you again Senior Brother. Hope we can have another gathering again so we could catch up! I"ll call you one of these days since I"ve got your number now!" Said Lee Jin Ho without even throwing a glance at Tan Ja Nin.
"Sure! Goodluck to your date then!" Bo Yu said enthusiastically.
Lee Jin Ho smiled politely at Bo Yu.
