✓ GIRLBOSS | Jeno

O21

Both Jeno and Haechan walked inside the company and as soon as the receptionist saw them, she immediately stood up. "Mr. Lee" she greeted and Jeno raised his eyebrows. "yeah?"

The receptionist named Oliver pursed her lips together. "Ms. Oh is waiting for you in your office, I did tell her that you're busy today and doesn't want to meet anyone unless it's Mrs. Lee but she doesn't listen to me"

The males exchanged glances. "Ms. Oh? Oh Sooji?" Haechan asked and Oliver nodded, "yes"

Jeno let out a heavy sigh meanwhile the tanned male chuckled, "I knew it she will find you again" Jeno thanked Oliver before he and Haechan made his way to his office.

"I told her to not come here, why can't she listen to me?"

His best friend lifted his shoulders, "how am I supposed to know that?" Jeno rolled his eyes and walked inside the elevator, "you're not helping"
Haechan grinned.

"I bet she's here to eat lunch with you"

Jeno frowned and sighed again.
He doesn't like of having a lunch with Sooji. Even the other day, having a small talk with her is already giving him pressure. She just can't listen to him, she's doing too much just to get his attention and he doesn't like that.

"I'm sure you didn't forget our past yet, we can fix everything and start again, Jeno"

There's nothing to fix, there's nothing too start again.
They have no relation but friends.

Jeno had a tiny crush on her during college year and Sooji knew that but the feelings now faded right after Sooji left to Australia without telling the reason to him and the others. She doesn't even say her last goodbye.

Now she's back, acting as if they had 'something' back in past.

Haechan and Jeno walked inside the office and saw the girl sitting on the small couch while admiring her nails. Probably just got it done yesterday.

"what did I told you last time, Sooji?"

The girl looked up and a wide smile crept on her face as she stood up. "you're here- oh Haechan is here too..." her smile slowly faded and Haechan did notice that which made him smirked.

He's not stupid.
He knows Sooji doesn't like his appearance because she wants to be alone with Jeno. Hell no he will let that happen.

He is JeNi (Jeno and Hani) shipper.

"why are you here?" Jeno asked as he took of his blazer. Sooji grinned, "I want to have lunch together with you" she muttered happily and Haechan muffled his laughter.

"told ya..." he mouthed to the elder which made him rolled his eyes.

Jeno furrowed his eyebrows and turned to Sooji who was standing still, blinking her eyes annoyingly at him.
"I can't, I'm busy, go have a lunch with Haechan"

Haechan raised his eyebrows and pointed towards himself before smiling widely to Sooji then nodded his head, "why not?" the girl immediately rolled her eyes at Haechan and whined.

"Jeno, it's been awhile since we haven't eat together, last time we barely had a talk together"

"what do you want to talk about, Sooji..."

"about us"

"what about us? There's nothing to talk about"

Sooji pouted and stepped closer to his desk, "c'mon Jeno... It's just a lunch" the man huffed and turned to Haechan who quietly stood, enjoying the drama.

He doesn't like it when people forced him to do this and that. If he says no then no, is it so hard to understand?

He only says yes to one girl and his parents.

"please?" she stepped closer and stood beside him which made him got more annoyed.
"fine, fine! but Haechan will join us"

Jeno muttered before sighing and grabbed his phone then left the office.
Haechan turned to the girl, "I got my eyes on you..." he muttered and narrowed his eyes before trailing after Jeno.

At the end, the three of them did have a lunch together but Jeno doesn't eat he just ordered a drink while playing with his phone.

Funny how he said he doesn't like it when people play with their phone at the dining table when he's with Hani but he, himself now is playing with his phone.

"why don't you eat anything, Jeno? you need to eat or you'll get sick..." Sooji said. Again her not so cute pout formed. Haechan pursed his lips together and shook his head a little.

"do you want to taste mine? It's great!"
Jeno shook his head, "I'm not hungry, I told you. Please don't force me" he said without looking up from the screen.

Haechan eyed both of them before clearing his throat and drink his water.

"so when did you come back to Korea?" Haechan asked, breaking the awkward situation. Sooji raised her eyebrows and hummed while thinking.

"a week ago? yeah"

The tanned male tilted his head, "why did you come back here?" Sooji frowned, "why? I can't back to my own country?" Haechan chuckled, "you know that's not what I meant, I'm just curious because you suddenly come back- I thought you're happy at Australia already"

She shook her head.
"nah, I went to Australia because of my parents, they got divorced so I had to follow my father's new family"

She lifted her shoulders, "I come back here because I got a job here" she smiled widely and Haechan nodded his head, "what job?"

"modeling, I apply for being a model at Australia but my manager told me there's one job here so I use that reason to come here again"

Haechan turned to Jeno and nudged him, "hey, you hear that? our friend is a model now" he chuckled but Jeno just hummed, not giving a single reaction.

"oh by the way, I got a job at Ryu's Company"

Hearing the name of the company, Jeno immediately looked up to the girl meanwhile Haechan suddenly choked.

"pardon?"

"Ryu's Company, the one with the famous cosmetics, I got a job there"

Jeno internally screamed and lowered his head down, cursing under his breath. "ah.. double fuck"

I changed the female 2nd lead characters name since i realized her name is same with Chenle's niece T_T
