YOUR P.O.V

My alarm rang for the umpteenth time. I finally mustered up all my energy to pick myself up from my bed. My head was throbbing, sharp and heavy. I didn't have time to think anymore, so I headed to the bathroom for my morning routine.

I wore a white button-up top with black skinny jeans ripped at the knees. I went to my vanity and picked up my Beauty Blender. I applied some BB cream on my face before going ahead to apply some tinted lip balm and filling in my brows. I was running late, hence, I skipped breakfast.

I hopped into my car and started driving towards the hospital. There is a meeting today for the confidential project, and I was informed that there would be someone new joining the team. I wasn't thrilled at the very least, because I had to explain the progress of the project to the new member, needing loads of elaboration. I was already tired enough as it is. With the addition of the new member, I wonder when I was going to be able to collate all their ideas and work out a conclusion.

While deep in my thoughts as I drove past, buildings after buildings, trees after trees, I finally reached the hospital. I headed towards the conference room and had 10 minutes to spare. I thought I would take a seat and organise my thoughts while practising to lead the meeting.

"I have managed to skim through some of the reports that you all have sent me. From what I observe, ..." I was preparing for my long ass presentation when I was interrupted by a tap on my shoulder.

"Hey. I'm the new member of the research team. My name is Jaehyun." He looked at me while smiling. He is the popular guy.

"Hey..." I managed to mutter. "Is there something wrong? Am I not welcomed?" He questioned, looking into my eyes. Those dark orbs are what I'm going to be lost in.

"No! Of course not... You are more than welcomed." I mumbled. Jaehyun was still staring at me. I just can't bring myself to look him in the eyes.

"Just take a seat somewhere. The meeting will start soon." He took a seat next to mine. Jaehyun glanced around, observing the environment for a moment when suddenly he asked, "So what's your name and how long have you been in this team for?"

"I'm Minhee. I've been with this team ever since the start, so about 3 months." He nodded his head. "I'm gonna go and get some coffee." I stood up and headed towards the door when I felt a hand grabbing onto my wrist. "What are you..." I turned around, not expecting his face to be just a few centimetres away from mine.
