Make It With You

*Monique*

Mom, Dad! Where are you? Calling my parents through phone calls while running through the stairs. We are at the pool honey, come over here. The other line said then I cut the line.

Annyeong Eommawa Appa (Hi mom and dad) I said while kissing them. Eomma, Appa, dangsin-ege malhal jung-yohan geos-i issseubnida. (Mom, Dad, I have something important to tell you.) I continued and took a deep breath.

Munjeneun mueos-ibnikka? (What is the problem dear?) dad asked.

Geulsse, naneun nugungaleul joh-ahanda. (Well, I like someone). I answered while fidgeting.

Eotteohge munjeibnikka? (How is it a problem?) said mom and crossed her arms.

Cheoeum-eneun sonyeoege kkeulligi ttaemun-ibnida. duljjae, geunyeoneun Kim Jisoo. (It is because first, I am attracted to a girl. Second, she is Kim Jisoo) I sighed.

Ulineun dangsin-i kkul-eul joh-ahaneun salam-eul jiwonhabnida. Ulineun dangsin-i geunyeoleul joh-ahandaneun geos-eul abnida (We support whoever you like honey. We know you like her) said mom and hug me.

Naega geunyeoleul joh-ahandaneun geol eotteohge al-ass-eo? (How did you know I like her?) I looked at them with raised eyebrows.

Minawa Joido uliege hwag-in haess-eunikkayo. (Because we know, also, Mina and Zoe confirmed it to us) said mom and they laughed.

Eotteohge geuleohge nal baesin hal su iss-eoss-eo. (How could they betray me like that) I commented shaking my head.

Hajiman hoesa-eneun deiteue daehan gyuchig-i issseubnida. (But there is the rule in the company about dating) I sighed.

Dangsin-i gajang meonjeohago sip-eossdeon il-eun geu gyuchig-eul jegeohago wonhaneun salamgwa deiteuleul hal su issdago malhan geos-eul gieoghabnida. (I remember you said that the first thing you wanted to do is to remove those rules and they can date whoever they want.) Dad and mom chuckle.

Chwisohaedo gwaenchanhseubnikka? (Is it fine if I revoked those?) I asked them just to make sure.

Kkul joh-ahaneundaelohaseyo. Dangsin-eun CEO ibnida, dangsin-eun dangsin-i wonhaneundaelo hal su issseubnida. hajiman gyeoljeong-eul naeligi jeon-e du beon ttoneun se beon saeng-gaghaneun geos-eul ij-ji masibsio. (Do as you like honey. You are the CEO, you may do as you please. But remember to think twice or thrice before making any decisions, understand?) I nodded and hugged them together. Gomawoyo eomma, appa! neoneun choegoya! (Thanks mom, dad! You are the best!)

Later that day, I was in my office rummaging through my table looking for my laptop. I have a meeting with Blackpink and the presentation was on that laptop. I dialed my assistant number to ask her.

Nē, Ryujin-chan, doko ni iru no? Watashi no rappu toppu o mita koto ga arimasu ka? Watashi wa sore ga kakete iru to omoimasu. (Hey, Ryujin, where are you? Have you seen my laptop? I think it's missing) I said worriedly.

Nē, anata wa sukoshi mae ni sore o ataemashita. Hayame ni kaigi no junbi o suru yō ni iwa retanode, koko wa chīsana kaigijitsu ni imasu. Anata wa monogoto o wasure tsudzukemasu ne? (Hey, you just give it to me a while ago. You told me to prepare early for the meeting, so I am here in the small conference room. You keep forgetting things, aren't you?) said Ryujin and I blushed at her comment.

Nē, shitsureina koto wa arimasen. Arigatō Ryujin shin'ainaru. (Hey, don't be rude. Thank you Ryujin dear) I said ending the call. Ryujin was working with my mom as an intern, she worked with me now since the retirement of my parents.

Who are you calling dear? Jisoo suddenly showed up.

For the love of god Jisoo, you are giving me a fright! Don't sneak around like that. I said while my hands are in my chest. Jisoo just laughed at my reaction. Why are you here? And alone? I continued.

Giving you a fright? You are the only person who used that word, said Jisoo while chuckling. Here, I bought you coffee and the others are on their way to the meeting. She continued handling the coffee.

Woah!! I act surprised. Jisoo bought me coffee, Jisoo cares for me, and Jisoo loves me! I smile brightly then hug her.

First, it's just coffee. Secondly, is that your hand on my ass? She smirked.

It was an accident. I said still hugging her.

Monique, it's still on my ass. She shook her head. Still an accident, I replied and stopped hugging her. I kissed her cheek and entwined our hands together, hoeuie gaja, yeobo. (Let's go to the meeting, honey). I said and winked at her. She looked at me shocked at the same time blushing.

Before entering the conference room, she removed her hand from mine and then looked at me, haeng-un-eul bibnida (good luck) she said then she kissed my cheek and she enter the conference room leaving me all flustered and nervous as fuck. I composed myself and get inside the room.

I am all smiles and singing walking towards my seat.

Happy times together we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was never-ending
Oh, wouldn't it be nice?

Well, someone is in a good mood. Jennie commented.

Hmmm, you could say that. I winked.

You're smiling like an idiot, Unnie. Lisa remarked. Share to us the good news, said Rosé interjecting excitedly. I just smiled at them and Jisoo just shook her head.

I sat on my seat and I snapped my finger...

Ok, ok, sa-eob-eul sijaghabsida. (Let's go down to business, shall we?) I said in a serious tone with a poker face. They all looked at me surprised.
