"Thirty minutes after the drama, Team Leader Go-hey-shin summoned me to his office. Remembering the piercing stare he gave me earlier, I hesitated to go, but with a heavy heart and tears welling up in my eyes, I stood up. Every step I took echoed, making it hard to calm myself down.
As I entered his office, I greeted him, trying to sound calm. "Good evening, Team Leader. You called for me?"
"Kim... Min... Hyun," he said, stressing my name in the most intimidating way, his face devoid of any smile. I was already praying, knowing I was in trouble for being late.
"Yes, Team Leader?" I replied, trying to sound innocent.
"What have you been doing?" he asked, his tone firm.
"Nothing, sir. Just my job," I replied, bluffing.
Team Leader Go-hey-shin leaned forward, his eyes narrowing. "Kim Min-hyun, you've been rather... captivating lately. I've noticed, and I'm not the only one. Whatever you're trying to do to get my attention, it's working. But don't think for a second that I won't replace you with someone more dedicated and smarter."
I stood there, surprised, then annoyed. Without thinking, I thanked him and exited the office. As I walked out, I felt an overwhelming urge to run home." Do I hate my life? Still looking forward to a boring and annoying day every morning
