—Park.Co Jihyo's Office— Monday, July 29th, XX35, 8:07 AM, 2 days later
[Jihyo's POV]

Bright and early, Jihyo's back to her hardworking self. After using yesterday to reflect on what happened two days ago, she's made up her mind to stay professional and ignore these thoughts about her new employee. Her mind is clearer than ever and she's back to her usual self.

*Knock Knock*

Jihyo hears a knock on her office door. Without looking up from her desk, she answers "Come in".

"It's me~!" Someone says, waltzing into the room.

"Eh, Dahyunie?" Jihyo looks away from her computer screen and sees Dahyun with a small bag, that looks to be filled with snacks.

"Didn't you miss me, older sister~? I haven't visited in a while", Dahyun says, opening her arms and expecting a hug.

"Haah~. What am I going to do with you? Come here" Jihyo stands up from her desk and opens up her arms too, accepting Dahyun's hug.

*squeeze*

"Woah-!!" Jihyo gasps, surprised by Dahyun's tight grip.

Dahyun lets go, taking a step back and smiling widely.

"Have you gotten stronger since I've last seen you? That was a pretty tight hug", Jihyo says with a laugh.

"Hmm, maybe I did? Anyways, here!" Dahyun hands over the small bag to Jihyo.

(Ah, I knew it!) "Snacks! Thank you Dahyunie~"

"I just wanted to bring you these before heading to my lecture. Share some with Jeongyeon for me, I owe her. Oh and share some with Nayeon too, of course, I don't wanna get hit"

"Good call on your part, haha, but I got it. Be safe, and text me when you get to school."

Dahyun nods with a smile and leaves out the door, closing it behind her.

(She got all my favourite snacks! These will keep me going for a while~ Okay? Back to work.)

(Ahh~ I think that's enough for now. I should stretch my legs and go for a walk.)

Jihyo stands up and stretches her arms. *grr..rumbles*

(I'm hungry..)

Jihyo grabs the bag of snacks that Dahyun brought, and heads into Nayeon's office, right around the corner...



*knock knock*

"Hello~? Ms. Im, are you busy?" Jihyo asks while opening the door.

Not surprisingly, she sees Jeongyeon there as well, sitting on the couch.
