Chapter 315 – Date of Minah Han (5)
Even after a brief refreshment at the cafe, the time was still passing by 12:00 PM.
We met at 10:00 in the morning, which is a bit early for a date.
I had only been to one cafe, so I still didn’t have enough time.
It would be nice if I could spend time with Minah in various ways today.
If possible, I thought to look around a little more here and there after the movie theater.
The building where the VGC is located also has many other recreational facilities such as a large game room and a bowling alley. It would be okay to take a sneak peek at it while moving your body before dinner.
When I dated Doshi-hee, in many ways it was comfortable because I didn’t have to do anything, but the date I dragged around like this wasn’t too bad either.
… I don’t know why, but I had the feeling that Han Min-ah’s reaction was delayed one by one from earlier.
“Hey, Hanmin.”
“…”
“Hey, Hanmin!”
“Huh?! Wow, what a surprise… Why are you suddenly screaming…”
“It’s because you can’t understand it at once. What are you bruising on from earlier?”
“Uh, huh? What?! Are you okay?!”
It was an embarrassingly shameless answer, but since she couldn’t argue with the fact that she didn’t mind, I watched her in moderation for now.
Her condition looked strange today, but it seems to have gotten worse since she started holding hands in front of the crossing earlier.
It’s not like he’s really anxious about not being able to go to work or anything like that.
I just wished it wasn’t like that. Because Cha Yu-ri and Doshi-hee were already enough for a woman who makes the inside of the dungeon a date course.
“That, so? Why did she call… ?”
“No, what. After watching the movie, I just want to ask where we’re going next. There is also an arcade on the 5th floor of the movie theater building, so stop by once.”
“Ah, yes…”
“During middle school, Hyeeun and I went together a lot. I haven’t been able to stop by because I’ve been busy since high school.”
“… Well, whatever.”
“…”
… I’m afraid I’ll slap you in the butt.
Since a while ago, she had been giving only insincere replies such as ‘It doesn’t matter’ or ‘That’s it’, so a mysterious emotion of hers rose up in her heart toward her.
A date with me isn’t much fun. Or are you really thinking about work so you can’t focus on me?
After a few minutes of walking while holding hands without much conversation, we arrived at VGC on the 7th floor of the mall.
Right away, I was able to find a couple of movies scheduled to start soon just in time.
“… You do a lot more than you think I was worried about what to do if there was nothing to see.”
“It must be because it is the end of the year and Christmas is coming soon. Let’s look at the screening timetable and buy one according to the closest time.”
“Huh…”
After removing a few things, such as movies that have to wait for an hour or more for the next screening because the timing is not right, GL movies made for a specific target audience, or children’s animations targeting family guests, there are three movies worth watching. Could
Action movie Project Blackout, fantasy movie The Legend of Adaline.
And, a total of three things, including the romance movie Starry Night’s Hide and Seek.
Of course, Project Blackout would be the movie Han Min-ah would like, but I asked her once to get her opinion.
“Is there anything you want to see?”
“Uh, um…”
Honestly, in my personal feelings now, Hide and Seek under the Starry Night was the movie that attracted me the most.
It’s not because I prefer romance movies, I just wanted to see it because I wanted to create a strange atmosphere with Han Min-ah.
If you focus on the movie, you will be able to get rid of other thoughts in your head for a while, so the appearance of Han Min-ah who is distracted like this will probably decrease.
It would be perfect if it could be filled with the subtle emotions of a romantic movie in its place.
From the beginning, Han Min-ah did not think of a date with me as a date and went ahead with her promise, but I wanted to spend this time with her as much as possible as if she were dating her lovers.
Of course, her top priority will lean towards the movies Han Min-ah wants to see.
“Seo, Seong Tae-kyung, what do you want to see? Isn’t it okay to see what you want to see?”
“I like anything, Mina, pick the one you want to see.”
“That, yes… ? Let me choose… ? Instead, you, the man, should choose…”
“…”
“… Why why?”
Are you thinking of asking me for opinions on even trivial things like this on a topic that I’ve been entrusted with the dating course all day?
Slightly grumpy, I walked out of the movie ticket line instead of answering her.
“I’m going to buy popcorn over there, so in the meantime, buy a movie ticket. No matter what you buy, you won’t complain, but what will you say if you don’t buy a ticket, so choose what you choose.”
“Uh, hey, hey… ?! Seong Tae-kyung?!”
After ignoring Minah Han calling me with her feet tied between her lines and moving her steps towards the snack corner, she immediately ordered a couples set with one popcorn and two drinks from the snack corner.
She waited for some time until the menu she ordered was served, and as she waited in the waiting room, Han Min-ah, who was presumed to have bought a movie ticket, quietly approached her.
“Did you choose what to watch?”
“… Huh.”
“What?”
“… Starry night hide and seek.”
“Really?”
Naturally, I thought that she would have booked the action movie Project Blackout, but this situation was quite unexpected that she chose the romantic movie Starry Night’s Hide and Seek.
“What is it? I thought you would definitely book through Project Blackout.”
“… Sold out So I just chose Starry Night.”
“Oh really?”
“It’s the last film in the project series. I think you should have booked online to see it in the first place.”
“I see.”
“…”
Aside from today’s date, I was planning to watch Project Blackout later as well.
It seems that most of the people in the theater today are spectators who came to see Project Blackout.
“… If you really want to see it, change it to the next one. I thought you could wait an hour or so to see it.”
“What are you bothering about? Hide-and-seek by the stars seemed fun, so it doesn’t matter.”
“Well, that’s it…”
On the contrary, I vaguely thought that this movie would help set the mood more with Han Min-ah.
In the end, it was the best situation in many ways, as Han Min-ah’s intentions were also listened to and the result of being a romantic movie was also drawn.
In fact, I knew that there was a fantasy movie, The Legend of Adaline, as another option, even if it wasn’t Starry Night’s Hide and Seek.
It wasn’t that he was ignorant enough to mention that part to Han Min-ah.
⁎ ⁎ ⁎
About two hours have passed since her first date with Sung Tae-kyung began.
After she entered the movie theater, Han Min-ah’s confused mind began to calm down to the point where she could think about it to some extent.
Her negative feelings of resentment and scolding herself for being a fool had long since disappeared like melting snow in her since she started holding hands with Seong Tae-kyung at the crossing.
Her head, which had been crowded with all kinds of thoughts, was now unified with one thought and was tightly blocked.
‘But why did he suddenly hold my hand? Did he notice that I kept trying to hold it? I don’t think he showed any signs of that. But his hand is surprisingly big. I think it was similar when I was in middle school. It’s a woman, so I have to catch it from my side or I just have to relax and follow what he catches or I’ll just clasp my hands at all No, crazy Hanmin, crazy bitch, no matter how much I think about it, that’s not the case…’
Just the fact that she was holding hands with Seong Tae-gyeong had already filled her head with excitement and delusions.
Han Min-ah, who couldn’t afford to turn her thoughts the other way, instead of blaming herself, focused on the sensation of Seong Tae-gyeong’s hand in her left hand.
As a result, he had no choice but to respond one beat later to the words he spoke.
“… Ah.”
“…”
“Hey, Hanmin!”
“Huh?! Wow, what a surprise… Why are you suddenly screaming…”
“It’s because you can’t understand it at once. What are you bruising on from earlier?”
“Uh, huh? What?! Are you okay?!”
Contrary to the excuses that suddenly jumped out of her mouth, Mina Han’s head still lacked room for other thoughts to enter.
She was somehow able to focus her attention only on Seong Tae-gyeong’s conversation, but all she could do was nod her head in response to his question.
As a result, it became a decisive opportunity for Han Min-ah to get the choice of a movie to watch on her date.
“… No matter what you buy, you won’t complain, but what will you say if you don’t buy a ticket, so choose what you choose.”
“Uh, hey, hey… ?! Seong Tae-kyung?!”
I anxiously called out to him in line to buy a movie ticket, but Seong Tae-kyung didn’t look back and walked towards the snack corner.
Han Min-ah, who was left alone in her queue, quietly let out a small sigh.
‘If you leave it to me and go away, what will you do…’
Fortunately, Seong Tae-gyeong, who had been the most confused in her head until just now, had become distant from her, so she could think calmly.
Of course, nonetheless, which film she chose remained a matter of no small importance to Han Min-ah.
‘Project Blackout is the most passable thing, but…’
It was the most reasonable choice in that both of them not only like the action movie genre, but also that it is an acceptable genre to watch with friends or lovers.
While watching Hide and Seek at Starry Night, she didn’t want to make her feel a little like her lover, but for some reason, it felt like she was revealing her true feelings too openly.
‘These days, even action movies have their own romance elements…’
“The next guest.”
“Ah yes.”
Han Min-ah, who endured small temptations for various reasons, purchased a movie ticket for Project Blackout in the closest time slot as planned at her reservation counter.
Exactly, she was going to buy.
“Sorry, customer. The time slot for Project Blackout is currently full.”
“… Yes?”
“The next earliest showing is scheduled for 1:30 p.M. Can I help you go this way if you don’t mind?”
“…”
‘An hour later, by the way…’
Considering Seong Tae-kyung, who had already left his seat to buy popcorn, it was difficult to watch a movie starting at 1:30 pm in many ways.
If that’s the case, that means you’ll have to choose a movie other than Project Blackout after all.
Anyone could have easily inferred where her choice would have gone from among the two alternative candidates.
“… Then, please book for Starry Night’s Hide and Seek instead.”
“Are you referring to Hide and Seek at Starry Night, which is scheduled to be shown at 12:30 p.M.?”
“Yes, two with that.”
“There are couple seats and regular seats in that theater. Which one can I help you book?”
“…”
Min-ah Han, who looked around for no reason and looked at her, responded to her staff in a small voice that seemed to crawl in.
“Couple seats are different from regular seats… ?”
“Couple seats are made of one chair without armrests between the two seats, and are spaced apart from other seats at a certain distance to create a more intimate atmosphere. Compared to regular seats, the price is a bit higher, though.”
“… Can I make a reservation by using the free advance ticket and paying the difference for the remaining price?”
“Of course you can, sir.”
Finally, Han Min-ah, who noticed Seong Tae-kyung once more, carefully conveyed her desire to be more faithful to her desires to her guide and staff.
“… I’ll book a couple seat.”
“All right. You can select your seat on the screen in front of you.”
“I’ll use the free app ticket for one of the two seats. The other one is discounted with a carrier discount coupon, and the remaining difference is…”
… Until then, Han Min-ah hadn’t expected it at all.
About what mistake he would make to Seong Tae-kyung while sitting in the couple’s seat inside the theater.
