''How's noona?'' Sean asked James who was busy reading the files on his table.
''She was still asleep when I left. She was really drunk.'' James said as he yawned.
''Still sleepy?''
''Isn't it obvious? What the hell are you doing here again, anyway? You're not supposed to be here.'' James stopped reading for a while to face the younger man.
''But it's boring at home. Besides, Charlotte's off to work too.'' he said as he pouted and settled himself on the chair before James' desk.
''Yah! Where's Dadoong? Where did you left him this time?''
''I left him at the guard ahjussi. Yah! Am I really demoted to being Dadoong's cat-sitter? I hate you!'' Sean grumbled and looked away.
''Aigoo... What are your free meals for? Pschht! Be thankful to Sam, she finds you adorable. But I doubt it now that you harassed my baby girl last night, you pervert! I haven't forgiven you yet!'' James snapped at him remembering how Sean grabbed Samantga's by her waist.
''I'm sorry, I didn't know it was her. Do you think I'd do that had I known it was Sam? I have high respect for both of you, you know!''
''Respect my ass! How come you asked Se7en to invite some girls? What if we were caught in the act? We're all probably floating dead bodies on Han River by now, you idiot!'' James slammed the files on his table.
''But...But...''
''Bro, Thomas is looking for you. He needs you to see this.'' Yves said as he peeped through the door to Thomas' office.
''Alright bro.'' Janes stood up before turning to Sean. ''Yah, go home. You'll be back to work next week. Why can't you wait a bit longer?''
''Aisht. You know I can't just stay at home! Let's have lunch together, ok? I'll wait for you and the boys.''
''Sorry. I still have a lot of things to do. You find someone else to pester, alright?''
''Yah!'' Sean called James but the latter already disappeared through Thomas' office.
''Aisht...'' Sean sulked but before he could sit down, his phone rang.
"Hello? Yes... Now? Sure! Sure! Hehehe... You know I'll always be free and I'll be most willing to dump my sched for you... yes... See you.''
Sean smiled as he ended the call. ''Aigoo... It feels so good to have a lot of big brother.''

''I'm sorry sir, but Ms. Li is still in a meeting right now.''
''Oh... I'll just wait for her here, then.'' He said as he settled himself on the couch at the waiting area. Having nothing yet to do since his appointments will start next week, Junki decided to pay a visit to Charlotte. Besides, he's really curious to meet someone. Someone he's been looking forward to see after a long time.
''J!'' Sean came running in, panting, as he reached Junki. ''Sorry, I'm late. Where are the girls?''
''They're on a meeting right now. Bet we should wait a bit more. You hungry already?'' Junki asked him.
''Hmmm... James brought me breakfast this morning. But now my stomach is already rumbling actually. I asked hyung to go out for lunch but he's busy.'' Sean said as he sat beside Junki.
''Aigoo. Just call me if you need someone to be with nok? Charlotte's too busy to take me around Seoul. Maybe you can accompany me some time. I've been away for too long, it's hard to remember the places. A lot has changed.'' Junki said matter-of-factly.
