April 10, 2018A small headache was being to form just above Baekhyun's left eyebrow. His meeting with the head of P.C.Y. Industry was late. A half hour late.
He sat in his conference room with his associates, waiting like patient dogs for that damn man to show. And finally, after their half hour wait, his secretary appeared in the doorway and spoke.
"Mr. Byun, the CEO of P.C.Y. Industry is here," she said quietly, tenuously.
Baekhyun sighed in a mixture of relief and frustration as he curtly retorted, "Thank you, now please, send him in." She nodded quickly before retreating from the doorway to fetch that extremely late bastard.
Baekhyun tried to compose himself and settle his facial features into a pleasant expression, because he knew he probably looked stern as hell, with creases of frustration and anger marring his upper brow. But could you honestly blame him? He had waited for a half hour.
When the CEO of P.C.Y. Industry entered the room, everyone politely stood and greeted him with smiles and warm words of welcome - all expect for one.
Baekhyun.
Baekhyun sat immobile in his seat as he stared daggers at their new arrival; his mouth opening and closing with incoherent sounds of rage and frustration.
He was dressed nicely in a clean crisp black suit with a black turtle neck underneath, that all appeared to have been just freshly ironed. His silver hair, unlike the last time, was combed back and tamed. Baekhyun didn't see a single hole or out of place hair, the fact making him angry once again for reasons he couldn't understand.
(A/N: Chanyeol's appearance. Had too. 😍)
And the CEO just watched him, having the audacity to smirk before saying, "Why, hello again, Mr. Byun."
Silence. And then . . .
"Mr. Byun, do you know him?" one of his associates, Kyungsoo asked.
Baekhyun pursed his lips and curtly said, "Would you all excuse us for a moment? I would like to talk to this, Mr. Park, alone."
Everyone nodded respectfully before leaving the room, taking all the oxygen with them. The room was suddenly filled with tension as Baekhyun angrily rose from his chair and crossed his arms, walking around behind his chair and reaching down to tightly grip the back as he said through gritted teeth. "Please, enlighten me. Why were you so late to our meeting? Did you have a prior commitment because maybe you could have mentioned that to my secretary so I didn't have to waste a half hour waiting around for you," Baekhyun finished saying with barely contained rage.
Chanyeol smirked and took a slow step forward as he replied, "Well, you see, Mr. Byun, I was in the middle of a . . . commitment, when I should have been here."
