Chapter 2

Going back to my office, I sat down at my desk. I huffed out the breath I didn't even know I was holding. Aish, who does he think he is. I thought to myself.

Well he is the CEO. My conscience tells me.

Do I look like I care? I thought and rolled my eyes. I really need to stop talking to myself.

I grabbed a book from the nearby shelf, and started to flip through it. Once again, I find myself in the same situation as I was in 30 minutes ago.

Bored.

Not really reading the book I have in front of me, I kind of dozed off into my own thoughts. Almost falling asleep as I rest my cheek against the palm of my hand; the door busted right open. Does anybody knock at this company!? Um, privacy please.

Slipping off of my palm, I quickly stood up to meet the man in front of me. It's no other than my boss, Jeon Jungkook. He throws the files he was holding onto my desk. I glanced at the files, noticing they were the ones I gave him earlier.

"I requested the files from last month on the new construction in Busan. I didn't ask for the files from LAST WEEK!" He raised his voice at me. His eyes were dark and cold; looking directly into my eyes.

I slapped both of my hands onto the desk and leaned forward towards him. "Excuse me, the files were given to me by Jamie? Jennie? Ugh, the Chairman's PA! If you have a problem then go ask him about it! All I did was to do what he requested me to, which was to make copies of these files," I defended myself. How dare he raise his voice at me!

"I have a meeting in the next 5 minutes. And I. Do. Not. Tolerate. Being. Late." He said; mostly emphasizing the words 'do not.' While leading forward towards my face.

Our faces were close but I ignored it.

I knew he was hinting me to go get the files he needed. But since he didn't apologize for raising his voice at me, I decided to pretend I didn't get his 'hint.'

"Your point is?" I questioned him annoyingly.

"Y-you! Ugh, I'm not gonna waste my time on you." He clenched his jaw, took the files on my desk, and left.

Before he left, he slammed the door shut. Making me flinch from my position. I slump down onto my chair; questioning why my father hired someone like him to be the CEO.

Workers spreading negative comments about me, and now him!? Can this day get any worst? Honestly, I just wish for this day to end like now.

For the majority of the day, I kept myself busy by either doodling, taking naps, eating, or brewing coffee for other workers. My father's PA never came back to give me another assignment to do. Which I was kind of disappointed. I wanted to contribute to the company but even the smallest task wasn't offered to me. Mind as well just become the janitor or something. At least they weren't as bored as me.

An hour before I get off from my first day of working, my father's PA comes back into my office.

"May I come in?" He peeks through the door.

"Yes! Please!" I was so glad to see him because I felt like I was dying of boredom. "Je..?" Hinting him I needed his name again.

"Jimin," he smiles.

"So what brought you here?" I asked him. He later on tells me how it was his fault for getting the wrong files. And he apologized on Jungkook's behalf for getting mad at me. I told him it was fine, and that he didn't need to apologize for Jungkook. To be honest, I want to hear the apology coming right out of Jungkook's mouth.

"He can get a little scary sometimes when he's mad," Jimin informs me.

"Does he have anger issues?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at him. "I'm serious!" I said as he laughs at my question. "I'm seriously thinking about asking my father to tell him to go see a doctor. Does he ignore everyone too?" I questioned him.

"No to all of your questions. He's actually really nice and funny. It's just he gets all focused when he's at work. You'll get used to it soon," Jimin assures me.

We talked for awhile, not noticing how fast time flew by. We bid each other a 'goodbye,' and went out separate ways.

Along the way home, my father asked me about my first day at work. I told him how bored I was, and how the CEO is a butt.  I left out the part about the negative comments because I didn't want him to worry. He tells me he'll try to give me work to do tomorrow, so I can get the feel of working in a company. And maybe I won't be as bored as I was today.

When we got home, I gave my mother a kiss on the cheek and ran upstairs to my room. I fell back onto my bed, staring at the ceiling. I played my current favorite song; Palette by IU. I was humming to the song, until my mother came in, informing me that we'll be having visitors later. She told me to get washed up and dress nicely. I nodded at her and continued listening to my song.

I got out of the shower shortly after. I went to my closet and picked out an off the shoulder romper to wear. I put on the accessories I wanted and headed downstairs.

Ooo I wonder what eomma is cooking. It smells so good. But before I could enter the kitchen, I heard the door bell ring.

I opened the door; revealing my father's best friend and his wife standing next to him. I bowed at them and greeted them a 'good evening'. I stepped aside for them to enter. When I turn back to close the door, I met a pair of dark cold eyes again. It was my boss.

But this time he held a bouquet of flowers.
