Surprisingly when I came to work today, Hoseok and most of Hyungwon's other leads were here. Specifically, Jooheon, Changhyuk, and Kihyun. I hadn't expected most of them to be here, especially Wonho because he's the COO of Chae Co. Which made it less surprising when Hyungwon came traipsing in like he owns the place.
I was wonder if he actually runs his company until he left on and off to deal with things. Raises and managing the other units. Which makes sense considering that's what my day comprised of until now.
I had slept over at Kookie and Tae's so I changed into the clothes I had there. Black ripped shorts, black thigh highs, black crop top with white paint splatters on it and a white collar, a red and black flannel over it with a black leather jacket completing it all, and white timberlands. For my hair I just put it back in two low pigtails with the front handing kinda messily in my face.
Since, I didn't really have makeup at their house besides my dark red lipstick, I wore that. In my office I put on the glittery silver eyeliner and red eyeshadow.
In all honesty, I still feel exhausted even though I did get about four hours. The silver eyeliner mostly covered the bags under my eyes good enough for no one to notice they're their in the first place.
When I arrived with Taehyung and Jungkook everyone immediately filled us in on how Apollo's friend is visiting and that she actually had a life. Well no shit.
Ailee is really nice and light hearted. I can tell how her and Shownu are related. Even though he's kinda quiet. His sister makes up for that.
"So, you're Kana? Wait, the CEO, right?" Ailee asks while looking up at me from her game of tic tac toe with Apollo.
"Mhm." I hum in response with a light nod. Swirling the Starbucks that Namjoon apparently ordered for everyone.
"I'm going to guess that's hard and.. boring." She says with a small giggle.
Shit, you're not wrong. I wouldn't be doing this job but it's not really my choice.
"It really is." I prompt as I laugh along.
Everyone is either handling their business or taking a breather. Jungkook in particular is laying upside down on the counter with Yoongi sitting upright next to him. Yoongi is focusing on his phone and you can tell her purposely trying to act like he doesn't see Kookie.
"Then why did you choose it? This job, I mean. " Ailee bluntly asks catching me off guard, she then proceeds to win tic tac toe and victory punch into the air.
"I- um-" I start to try to come up with an excuse as the elevator doors open and Hyungwon comes strolling out.
Oh, thank god. I really don't know how I could basically tell her, oh you know my parents sabotaged me and killed my dreams as a young child, then forced me to control part of their little empire. No. That's not what you tell a person.
"Hey, there's Mr.Chae! He's the CEO of Chae co. He was here earlier but left to go handle business with his company." Apollo redirects the conversation quickly.
Immediately shooting her a look that basically says thank you so much you're a precious being, she just gives a small smile in return.
"Oh, uh, Hi. I'm Hyungwon, what you're Shownu's sister right?" He asks and I watch features go from caught off guard to taken aback then stopping at realization and his usual smooth arua.
Ailee nods with a smile.
"Yeah, I've heard about you and I'm actually surprised I haven't met you." Hyungwon lightly states while looking over to Shownu.
"My bad but to be fair, Ailee hates corporate buildings so it was a miracle I got her to come visit here." Shownu says, holding his hands up in defense.
Taking a chance to slip away again, I walk towards the elevator trying to not let anyone notice, which I thought was successful until Hyungwon turned around and slipped into the elevator.
I realize that I've been doing this more often, to be honest it's because I've been having the feeling of not being able to breathe happen alot. It's the type where I know it's not physical but it's still there. Plus right now I want Apollo to have fun with her friend, it's obvious they miss each other. I don't want to intrude.
"Ooh, where are we going?" Hyungwon asks with way too much fake excitement.
Sighing, I look over at him without moving a muscle. He looks really cute today. Wait. Oh, whatever it's not like I actually said it.
His slim figure is practically being drowned in a huge black sweater, more fitted white jeans, and black vans.
"I'm going to the roof, I don't know where your going." I deadpan while exiting the elevator and being met with the skyline of the city.
"With you." He says as if it's not something wrong with that statement.
Turning to look back at him, I cross my arms.
"What if I don't want you to be with me?" I ask challengingly, tiliting my head to the side.
"Too bad. I was thinking we should go swimming." He says as he walks over to the pool.
"Don't you have a job to be doing?" I ask trying to change the subject. It doesn't work.
"Don't you?" He says, raising a brow in my direction.
"Well-" I start.
"That's what I thought. Im going to go ask your sister if she wants to join and the rest of the guys. Wonho has been dying to flaunt around her anyway." Hyungwon says as he throws his hand up behind him then gets back in the elevator.
Well, shit. I don't even know if I have a swimsuit here. I probably do but still. Do I have to go swimming?
