It's been a few days since I last talked to my parents. They called a butt load of times but I tried my best not to pick it up. I even put my phone on silent and boy the amount of lies that I told them everyday as to why I missed their call.

'Sorry mom, I lost my phone for the whole day'

'Sorry dad, I didn't get the chance to charge my phone today'

'I'm soooo sorry. My phone just got stolen but I finally got ahold of it. Korean police force are so quick on their feet to finish their cases ")'

And if you think that was the dumbest reply I've ever respond to their texts, you don't want to know what I just sent them last night.

I have no idea how long I'll have to keep up with these lies but until I have the courage to tell them that I got rejected, I'll keep this a secret to the grave. I don't care if all it takes for them for me to finally tell the truth is during the afterlife.

"You still didn't tell them?"

I turned and saw Nali walking into the kitchen with her bird-nest-like hair. Judging by her appearance this early in the morning, I know she hadn't got a good night sleep last night. She has eye bags under each of her eyes and her clothes..... Let's just say it looks like a toddler just learned how to dress themselves overnight.

"Are you okay?" I ask and take a sip of my coffee. "You look dead"

She sighs, took a seat infront of me and literally threw her head on the table. I flinched in my seat from the loud thud but I guess she's too dead to even feel the pain.

All I'm sure is that I'll be living with a bumped head unicorn for the next few days.

"Mr. Park gave me a shitload of work. He asked me if I knew you because he heard that you came with me, you know, the day that you had your interview. I told him yes and now, it seems like whatever you did, he seems to make me pay for it. So yeah, awesome" she explains.

I look at her sympathetically. I quickly got up and went to her side and gently rub her back.

"I'm so sorry Nali. I didn't know that he would do something like that. I didn't think that he's that kind of guys. I mean, he's a bitch but he could have just been that" I said. I heard her laugh and I instantly knew that she's not having this too hard.

"He can't do that you know" I sat down next to her and lift her head so that she's looking right at me. "It is not professional and it is not ethical"

She laughed uncontrollably this time that she almost fall off the chair. "You need to stop watching the Kardashians" she says and wipe off some tears that fell out of her eyes.

"I can't. I'm addicted and they're the reason of who I am today. I need drama in order to live. Drama is life"

"Yeah right. Well, if that's the case then you got one. Jimin is an ass and you're the reason behind it"

I sigh and think for a moment. He can't do this. He's obviously abusing his power and position over Nali. He can't just mix his feelings and personal life with work. Even though I've never handle a company before but I just know that what he's doing to Nali is wrong.

"I'm sorry Nali. I promise you that I'll make it up to you. I'll talk to him tomorrow" I said and stood up to finally head to my room but she stops me with her hands wrap around my wrists.

I look over to her and she's at the verge of crying. I quickly went back to her side to try and calm her down.

"Hey, what's wrong?" I ask.

"You can't meet him. He'll torture me more than what he did today. Whatever exchanged you guys the first moment you met needs to stop" she says.

"That's the point Nali. I don't think I said anything that would offend him to the point that he would give you a shitload of-" suddenly something hit me.

I didn't even get a chance to exchange any words with that Jimin guy. Except when I asked him to give me a reason as to why he rejected me. However, I did meet someone right outside his door and gave him a piece of my mind instead.

That fucking prick tattled on me

"Nali..." I start off and I heard her sniffled before she finally focuses her eyes back on me again. I look down and her and grin widely. I think I might have scared her a tiny bit since she flinched and then her body starts to quiver. "I think I don't need to talk to Jimin for you to not live through hell"

◇◆☆◆◇

"I thought you told me yesterday that you don't need to talk to him Misun"

Nali literally pulled me back to stop me from speed walking to the Park Towers. It's still early in the morning and people are already starting to judge me. Probably because Nali is literally pulling onto me just so I would stop walking like a mad person to a certain men.

Even though me and Nali are practically around the same height and weight but her pulls are nothing compared to the rage that I'm currently feeling inside. He should be lucky that I had time to cool off a bit last night because I got a good night sleep and slept through the night like a baby.

Highlight, a bit

I have A LOT to say to him and he is sooo gonna get it.

"I did"

"Then, mind explaining to me as to why you're walking like a crazy person to the place that I'm currently working to earn money to pay for the rent for the place that we eat and sleep? Remember? A place that we call home?"

I rolled my eyes. I'm slowly starting to get annoyed that she's not on the same page as me.

I was about to respond to her when suddenly, I saw him. He got out of a fancy car with another men and a kid. But why do I care.

"Hey buttface!!" I yelled. The people that passed by me gave me looks but I don't care. What I do care though is to make him regret for tattling on me.

"Misun don't!" Nali tried to pulled me back but failed miserably.

The said men turn around with a raised brow and a cocky face, as always.

When he realizes who I am though, he smirks. "Ahh, the old baby who cried for failing a simple test. How can I help you today?"

I was baffled. "Me?! Old?! Sure, I'll take it as a compliment since you have this messy childish attitude with you"

"Me? Childish? Please, you called me buttface. If anyone's childish here it would be you"

"Yeah, sure. I'm the childish one when you're the one who literally tattled on me just because you hold stupid grudges" I said.

His forehead creased in confusion. "Now what the fuck is so important that I need to tattle on you about? News flash, the earth doesn't revolve around you. And look at yourself in the mirror please. That outfit is so last season" he says with full on sass.

I look down at my clothes but see nothing wrong with my simple white tee, pants and my bear printed socks with sandals-ouh.

I shook my head and glared back at him. "Whatever! The point is, you're torturing and abusing your power over my best friend" I stopped and turn around and search for Nali. She's trying to sneakily walk through the crowd to enter the company but I pulled her by my side and continued. "Nali here just to I don't know hmmm..... OHH, to get even with me using your own sick ways" I said.

I'm sure by now that my face is probably red from how mad I am.

I was startled when I heard a child's voice right behind me.
