The Thing by Pixies
Jeongin stands in the center of the small, cramped office, with two work desks on the side of the walls and paper. A lot of paper stacked up on desks, on which, Seungmin sits visibly bothered.
"Felix asked me to come here?" The newcomer says, crossing his arms as he cringes at the mess around.
"Yeah, three of us came up with this idea.."
Jeongin cuts him off rudely -"Felix said you'd say that, so he mentioned that it was only your idea."
"That little.." Seungmin stops, trying to compose himself as he stands up, glancing at Yeji, who seems entertained by the scene. "Well, I heard from that little witch that you're looking for internship. So count this as your unpaid hours to add to your little experience section."
Jeongin raises his eyebrow, "I have a feeling that you're talking from the middle of the story."
"To put it short, I need help with reading all these books people submitted and choosing one to publish. Yeji here, despite her wish to help me, isn't educated enough. No offence." He apologizes to the red haired girl sitting in the corner, legs crossed, chewing her gum.
She chuckles, "none taken. University was never for me."
Jeongin pauses. Yes, he desperately needs experience for resume, but working with Seungmin..."will you pay me?"
"More than any normal internship would, but still underpaid." Seungmin grins, already feeling like Jeongin might agree.
"Is it too much to ask for separate room?"
"Yes."
"How about taking books home to read?"
Seungmin knows that can be done, but after all, he's doing this for two reasons. First, he actually needs help. Second, very little attraction he has for Jeongin. So, after pretending like he's giving Jeongin's suggestion a thought, he shakes his head no.
Yeji stands up, clicking her tongue as she reaches for her coat. "I'd love to see this escalate, but I have a real job."
"Goodbye, darling." Seungmin calls out, as he walks the girl to the. Jeongin watches it all with a cringed expression.
How hard can this be? He's just going to ignore Seungmin, sit in the corner and be done with books as soon as possible. Jeongin walks to the one of the desks, guessing it's Hyunjin's before sitting down and uncomfortably shifting on really worn out chairs.
Working here would actually suck.
He hurriedly walks to the glass door, making sure Seungmin isn't coming back just yet and proceeding to roll his chair out and exchange it with Seungmin's. He's almost caught with the latter unexpectedly opening the door and having as cheerful expression as ever.
