Players [HIATUS]

Chapter 8 : Reunion

Your POV

"Collect it back NOW."

A man around his fifty raged as the papers on his hands scattered around the floor. I look around, trying to find some help but no one was there in the hallway.

"But, Mr. Dae, it is not my f---"

My words got cut off as the man infront of me growled frustatedly,

"I said, COLLECT IT BACK N-O-W."

I sigh as a sign of giving up before slowly bending my body to take those paperworks. It was OBVIOUSLY not my fault, I just happened to be there when the man slipped and accidentally threw all the papers in his hands. It is unfair and just because the man is a head manager here, it doesn't change the fact that he is the one who is in the faults.

I try to reach the first sheet before someone grabs my hand, making me stand straight again.

"Mr. Dae, I'm pretty sure this is your own fault."

"And Mr.--- Oh Sehun, I'm pretty sure this is none of your business."

"Her business is always mine too."

Sehun glared at the man---Mr. Dae hatefully before diverting his gaze to me. "Are you okay?"

I nod and join the staring contest participated by Mr. Busybody Oh Sehun and Mr. Dont-Know-His-Own-Fault Dae. The silence was tense as I nervously wet my lips, hoping that some fairy godmathers would mind to help us.

Someone coughed, making all of us turn to it direction. I saw Yixing standing there as his sweet dimple smile flashed toward me and I smiled back.

He turns around, facing Sehun and Mr. Dae as he said, "Mr. Dae, mind to explain?"

"Ceo Zhang, it wasn't my fault. This girl bumped to me cause she was busy on the phone while that boy over there is being rude to his own senior."

"What the--- Mr. Dae, I didn't even touch you , you fell by yourself."
"Plus-- I didn't even bring my phone with me now."

I show Yixing my empty hands and he nod understandingly. He stares at the manager near him as the man lows his head in embarassment.

"Mr. Dae, you--as the 'senior---should have show them a good example of a leader not someone who takes oppurnity to torture their Juniors just because they are way longer in this industry. I'm definitely disappointed on your childish attitude. Meet me at my office on six evening tomorrow. No excuse."

"Yes, CEO Zhang."

Mr. Dae left us with a slow murmur of goodbye and I turn my head toward Yixing, slightly grinning like a child who has a brother to protect her. Yixing softens his gaze at me before slowly turning his head to the forgotten man beside me, Sehun.

"Oh Sehun, why are you being rude to your senior?"

Oh, he doesn't forget.

"CEO Zhang, it is obviously his---"

"No excuse, young man. It is still impolite."

Sehun groaned angrily, clenching his fists as he stares the floor fulls of papers. Yixing looks at him, sighing before continuing, "Why are you like this, Sehun?"

"Because of her."

Oh, shit. I just got dragged onto this problem.

"What is your purpose on defending her? It's not like you're his boyfriend or---"

"I am."

What the f--- ?

"W-what?", Yixing stuttered, jaw hangs low as he widens his eye.
