By the way, as i was saying before; its the first of july and summer is going pretty bad, even if the weather is beautiful and relaxing.

Finding a job turned out to be a total failure and i got kicked out from the last one in an H&M store, in an attempt to socialize with my boss i tripped and accidentally pushed her down the moving stairs, yeah.

Luckily nothing bad happened to her but she started to hate me so i was best seen outside of there, like, forever.

9:00 am

The alarm goes off, but its the nice smell of cake my mom started to prepare an hour earlier that wakes me up for good.
After looking at the ceiling for 10 or more minutes i finally get up from my comfy bed and i go to the bathroom to take a shower and not feel like trash for the rest of the day.

Then, i decide to head to the kitchen and say "hi" to mom.
"hi honey, slept well?" she asked, looking at me with a relaxed smile
"yeah, kinda, your cake woke me up tho" i replied to her in an ironic tone, sitting down beside the table where there was a nice cereal and milk breakfast that was waiting for me.

Mom laughed a lil and then proceded to tell me an "exciting" news: "You know honey, before leaving for work at 8 am, Dad told me he had to propose something to you, you know, since you have been struggling to find a job for such a long time..."

I gave her a weirded out look, dad was never really a person that proposed nice things to me, lets just say me and him always had a kind of toxic relationship, since he always had something bad to say about my social skills and personality in general.

"ooookay mom, where is the trick"

Mom looked surprised for a second, and then told me to message him cause he really had a good thing to propose.
I finish my breakfast and then go to my room to check on my phone.
While i was about to text him he called me and i had to reply out of curiosity.

"hey dad, hows it going at work?"

"meh, like always, listen, i talked to the CEO of this agency about, well, you"

I held my breath for a moment, what the hell was he trying to do, make me an idol or something??
Sure, i took an interest in kpop since dad started working in the field, and i knew groups like BTS and BLACKPINK pretty well, but i have never been to a concert, or bought any merch.
So i waited to reply to him and when i was about to he interrupted me.

"He has a free spot in the graphic design section, so like, still advertisments, you will learn to do graphics for comebacks, concerts, albums etc, you like the idea?"

If i liked it? I dont really know to be honest, i graduated from an art school so of course he had to find me a job about art stuff.

Still, it was interesting and i had to find a job to be an active member of society and be helpful to my family for once.

"wow, thats cool dad, how much are they willing to pay me?"

"mhh" he thought for a moment to remember what the CEO told him

"1.157.887 won per month i guess, its like 800 euros"
Not bad, but not the best either, thats still money tho and i would be new to the job so thats fair.
"yeah then, i would be interested dad, thanks"

After i said that he was really excited, i could tell from the tone in his voice.

"perfect! then meet me at Jungnang in an hour i will take you to do a tour of the company with me, and if we are lucky we could even meet the CEO again!"

I gasped
"WAIT DAD HUH-"
He hung up.

I stayed still for what seemed to be 3 hours, then, i remembered, and i HAD to run to the station.I didnt even know what i was about to run into, just knew some details, and that was the thing that freaked me out the most.
