❝I dare you to say that you love me.❞
I said out with a blank expression not caring how bad things might go for the guy in front of me after this.
The boy was confused for a moment but his expression soon changed into a smirk.
❝Fine.❞ He said

Hyerin's POV
"Are you sure you don't want me to come along-" I smiled from my side of the call hearing my boyfriend be all protective about a simple interview. Yes I decided to take up new jobs cuz why not. Money is important and starting earlier in saving up would help me in the future. I had an interview for a job in the shopping mall since my pay would be higher there.
"Sunghoon it's fine. I'll be okay." I cut the call sighing and got out of the house. Walking to the huge mall, I went inside and entered the shop. It was big enough for me to know how lucky I'd get if I got the job. But at the same time, it looked difficult. All the people there were professional and I wasn't the only one applying for it.
"You're Lee Hyerin right?" I nodded at the manager as he gestured me to come in. "So let's start the interview."
-
I silently walked on the lonely road feeling cold because I had only one layer of clothing on. Disappointedly taking small steps, I sighed and stopped. I sat down on my knees on the cold floor while I felt myself somehow feeling weak. The interview was trash.
"So you're saying you've only worked at a cafe before?"
"Yes sir."
"Hyerin you do know we are looking for someone professional for this job?"
"I do sir."
"You're good enough to get this job but you're saying you'll frequently need leaves? And you still want a higher pay?"
"Yes sir."
"I don't like this attitude of yours Hyerin. You look cold and over confident. Please go. I'll see what I can do."
Indeed it went trash. If only I could say that I'm like this. That I'm cold and might look overconfident when I actually am not. Ahh why was it so difficult to get a job? If only grandpa actually took time to know how my life recently had been, then I wouldn't have to face all these trouble. I wish I could tell him how rude mom was with me sometimes. But I couldn't let there be more problems between the father and daughter. "Ahh I miss you dad." I looked up at the sky and stared at the sparkling star feeling overwhelmed about everything.
It's not like my life is ending. But it's not like I'm progressing.
Calling Sunghoon I waited for the guy to take the call and he finally did. "Hey Hyerin. Sorry I'mma bit busy. I'll call you back later." With that he cut the call before I could even say a simple hi. Ahh everyone's busy with their own lives.
After having plain ramen at the convenience store, I got out and checked the time. 11:47pm. It's late. Very late. And I saw 4 missed calls from my mother. "Why does she have to act like she actually cares?" Knowing I'd have a bad time at home, I prepared myself and walked to our huge house.
