Y/NAfter I use the bathroom I get out to face Suna standing in the hallway.
"Mr. Jeon is waiting for you in his office." She says and walks away without showing me where the room is. Well, she caught me standing in front of his door.
Great. How do I face him now? As my boss, as my father's friend or as the guy I met last night? It doesn't really matter as long as he doesn't treat me the way he did when he saw me here. This man can be scary.
I take a deep breath and knock on his door.
"Come in" he says from behind the door.
I open the door, and there he sits, in his black suit, whit his white shirt, dark hair and piercing eyes. He rises from his seat and motions for me to take a seat in the chair across from his desk.
"Please, sit"
I do as he says and he walks to the window next to his desk. It takes him a few seconds before he turns around and starts speaking.
"This is how we're gonna do this." He continues and sits on his chair. I take a deep breath and wait for what's to come.
"You will start working in two days as my assistant. You will stay here for the time being, until you are able to afford a place of your own or until you decide to do so. You're welcome to stay as long as you wish."
I can't figure out why, but he looks angry or irritated about something.
Is it about me staying here?
He knows I can afford renting an apartment, or buy one. Well, to be more specific, my dad does. And he won't let me live alone in a place I don't know yet. The point here is for me to be self-reliant.
That's why I'm doing all of this, the purpose behind my goal to gain business experience by working with successful people. Such as Mr. Jeon. When I first brought this up to my dad, that's the first person he immediately thought of. Lucky me he already was looking for a new assistant.
I stare at him as I get a vision of us last night as we made love and kissed for hours, and sadness sweeps over me.
It was just sex. I remind myself.
"No one will know you are living here. You'll be provided with a car to make your daily commute to work easier, and that way, no one will see us leave the building together. Feel free to use the car whenever you want."
So formal. But I stay quiet and listen.
"On your first day, you'll get all the necessary information about your job. Nicole, my former assistant, will be there to assist and train you for a week."
That's a relief. But I try not to make it as a big deal and just nod my head.
"That's all for now. Anything you want to say?"
"No. Everything's good." I answer and look around his office.
"I didn't see you have any suitcases?" He asks.
"They're still at the hotel." I drop my eyes to the desk. I don't want to go back there. My dress from last night is still lying on the bed.
"I'll send someone to take care of it."
"There's no need. I'll do it myself." I reply and force a smile.
"Alright." He responds, but he avoids making eye contact with me. Throughout our conversation, he has hardly glanced in my direction. I believe he's trying to avoid thinking about last night as well.
