Hana had diligently worked on her job, giving Chanyeol rundowns of his agendas every day -- his meetings, conferences, seminars and all the other work-related things she was allowed to handle. Almost a week had passed since she was hired, and yet she didn't seem to regret anything which had surprised most of Chanyeol's employees seeing as how Hana had kept her job at check, not even complaining when the CEO gives her a hard time.
For instance, when she had returned to his office for his morning coffee – something that he requests whenever he's stressed – he almost spilled the coffee on her as the coffee was too sweet for his liking. Apparently, Hana had no idea that the CEO was health-obsessed, and normally, she preferred sweet coffee so she made one according to her taste. She did not expect Chanyeol to lash out though. In fact, she was ecstatic when she was making the beverage, thinking of how the coffee would eliminate even just an grain of Chanyeol's usual stress.
And that happened two days after she was hired.
Now, one could say that she had grown accustomed to Chanyeol's preferences.
She knew what time he usually arrives at the company and took a mental note to come to work an hour earlier than he did, so as she could prepare his office and a few documents to be assessed for the day.
She knew of his likes and dislikes, mostly from how he preferred his employees. A lot of times, he had lashed out in his office whenever he demands her to bring specific employees inside. Most of the time, those employees would go straight to their work stations, clean their desks,and go home, some even crying.
She had seen how most of his employees were frightened of him, and to be honest, she was too. However, she didn't bother to show his fear in front of her boss, knowing that what the CEO hated the most was just that. Fear.
It was her greatest discovery -- his fear: to lose, business-wise, and to himself as a whole.
He did not just fear the times when risks arise. He had also feared the possibility of losing to his competitors and losing his clients, but none of those times did she see him break down. Instead, he would frown, drown himself into more work than necessary, and soon enough, he would break into innovative ideas to win over those risks and eliminate those competitors. Nevertheless, the CEO didn't need to say what fear he had, as Hana had only discovered so by observing him.
Today was no different.
She wore her usual attire, though she did wear her usual and dull, white and black clothes for the day. She went to work one hour before her boss usually arrived, as per what she had been doing the past few days. She went on the line for the elevators, knowing that she can't ride the private elevator. She couldn't help but admit how she missed to ride it with the CEO.
Waiting for your turn to ride on the elevator, plus squishing herself with the others was defiantly not her cup of tea.
As soon as she arrived, she smiled, remembering that she already had everything sorted out last night. She already arranged the documents for the day last night before she went home from work, so she leisurely sat down on her desk and waited for her boss.
Deciding that she had nothing else to do for another hour, she went inside the CEO's office, grimacing immediately when she realized how many documents were scattered all over the floor.
She then remembered how angry the CEO was yesterday from firing a lot of employees on the spot because he saw them lounging around near the hallway on the third floor when he was surveying the departments. He would've waved them off and simply told them to get back to work, but apparently, he overheard their conversation, including Hana.
