"I just don't want to see it happen again. You may be one of our best employees, but I will not hesitate to fire you Miss Lee."

Her boss' voice was strict and she knew that he meant every word. As easy it was to get hired, as easy would it be to find another girl that would fit the job perfectly.

She wasn't anything special.

"I'm not threatening you Chayoung. You know I value you as an employee, I just won't tolerate a such action."

"I know." Chayoung sighed into the phone.

She wondered why her boss hadn't called her earlier. The previous shift she had was the night that guy got too violent.

That night, she ran away even though her shift hadn't ended yet.

The guy was just so rough and he wouldn't listen to her. He paid her for sex, not for choking her. He said it was his kink, but stuff like that was something you were supposed to agree on before the deal. And they hadn't.

Chayoung had gotten uncomfortable but when she tried to protest, he pinned her up against the wall. He told her how he loved it when she struggled against him. 'It made it more intriguing'. But the minute he let go of her to remove his pants all the way off his legs, Chayoung ran out of the room.

She was scared, but she could do nothing. As soon as she closed the door behind her, she had to pretend that everything was alright. She couldn't cry, because what if her boss saw her? He would fire her.

So she kept her eyes fixed on the ground. She wanted out of the club. She wanted to go home. Home to her shitty apartment she only had a few days left in before she would move into her college dorm.

Chayoung wanted nothing more than to stop selling herself. She couldn't wait for that day to come. But as of right now... she couldn't afford it.

Then she bumped into that guy, Jungkook, who turned out to be her classmate and saw her in her messy clothes in the middle of a strip club.

"I promise, it won't happen again."

"Correct. It won't. I'll see you at work tonight. You have a 5 hour shift, don't forget it."

"I won't." Chayoung sighed, "I'll see you there."

Across campus, a tall figure was watching Chayoung.

Jungkook noticed the wrinkles that seemed out of place on Chayoung's forehead. He didn't know her, but they just didn't fit.

He wondered who she would be talking to.

As he left his dorm, leaving for class, the boy had caught sight of the girl walking back and forth in the middle of campus. He couldn't help but linger and observe the girl.

He watched her, recalling her outfit she had worn at the strip club.

He refused to admit it, but despite his morals, the boy couldn't help but to think of how hot she looked at the club... before he noticed her trembling of course.

The girl's hand lowered with her phone in it. It seemed as if her call was over.

And Jungkook grabbed the chance to approach her.

"Chayoung!" He called out when he noticed she was about to walk the other way.

The girl stopped and when she met his eyes, her expression turned puzzled.

"I just wanted to apologize for yesterday." Jungkook announced.

"Apologize for what? People bump into each other all the time." She shrugged, "But thank you."
