[ He had spoken to Haruto in Jeju after his memories had returned, yes. So he had an idea of what happened, but he had unfortunately (or fortunately?) been wrapped up in dealing with Young-ho's arrival for that week and also the added knowledge of what could potentially happen if he doesn't figure out a way to stop Kangdae's self-imposed mission of revenge (thanks, Korain). ]
I'm actually impressed that he gave you genuine advice, honestly.
[ Considering what he's heard from Haruto, anyway. ]
But he is right.
I'm ... well, as well as I can be myself? Outside of dealing with some demon things, but you don't need to be worried about that.
Oh!
Though I suppose I do have at least some good news to share. I've started to see someone. It's been only a couple months, but it's been nice.
Ah, yes. I apologize, Sunhi, things were sort of hectic and I had gotten caught up in some things, so I wasn't able to update you.
Her name is Jang Eun, she's part of one of the local covens here. And yes, she's good to me and makes me happy. We ... started dating under some odd circumstances, to be perfectly honest, but it ultimately worked out in our favor. I'm admittedly happier than I have been in a while because of this.
OMG OMG OMG JAE YOU'RE DATING A WITCH AND SHE MAKES YOU HAPPY AND YOU'RE SO HAPPY AND I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS THE BEST it's okay you didn't tell me because you were too busy being with her which is so much more important!!!!
what's she like? what's it like dating her? she's really happy too, right? i mean you can tell, can't you? i assume?
She's wonderful. The sex is mind-blowing, to nobody's surprise, but it feels nice to have someone to come home to. One of our first dates involved us going to one of the fine art museums to browse, and with me filling in some of the historical gaps when I could.
I'd like to hope that she's happy too, but Eun's the type that would voice her displeasure for the most part if something was bothering her.
It's taken some time, and we're both trying to adjust - I'll admit I haven't properly dated anyone in literal decades. But it's good. Very good.
Open communication is something that is necessary for most relationships, platonic or romantic, really. It won't be perfect, but we'll make it what we can.
Decades???????????? oh Jae..... that makes me even more happy that you're dating someone now and that she's special and right for you and that it's going so well!!!!!
let me know if there's anything i can do though and when i can meet her!!
I can do that. It's been long enough that I'm sure he would be okay with having visitors, I think. Plus I'm sure he would be thrilled to hear my news as well.
