Mr CEO is my neighbour? || Park Jihoon

03

".. Miss Jung.." Mr Park stutters when he saw me in front of his house's door.

"... Mr Park.. Did you really live here? I mean.. It's not your house right?" I ask him.

He suddenly pulls me to enter his house. He approaches me, still grabbing my hands. "It's my house and don't tell the others. You still don't know that I used to cast a spell." He whispers.

I stomp on the floor strongly, trying to free from his grips. He lets my hands go without any words. I stumble on the ground thanks to him. He lends me a hand to help me instead of laughing at me.

"Wae? I know you just want to laugh at me, right? I won't need your hand to stand on my own feet." I get up from his uncovered floor, ignoring his hand.

"I'm sorry!... I know that I maybe made you overworked without giving you time to eat. But.. I'm sincere when I want to help you. I never laugh on girls that fell on the ground because it's hurt." He explains.

I look at him with mixed emotion. "Urm.. Okay then. I have something curious about you. Why you choose to live here? Aren't there many houses that you could afford?" I ask him to change the subject.

"This was my house once before my father got rich and leave me alone here. I feel grateful that this house still haven't been destruct by others." He tells me the untold story that my mom even don't know about it.

"Wait.. Leave you alone here? By yourself?!"

"Why you sounded like you're interested in my life? I don't think you should know about it.."

"I'm your secretary.. I should know about my CEO.." I lied just to know more about his life.

Oh gosh! Why suddenly you're trying to know about him? He is cruel to you before, Hana.

"I know it's an excuse tho.. I don't think you have to know a lot. So, please get out from my house. Go to your house downstairs and live there safe and sound." He pushes me out from his house, locking the door as soon as I'm out.

"Mr Park! It's not an excuse.. I love to solve others story. Please tell me, eung?" I ask him, leaning on his door waiting for him to open it. Unfortunately, he won't change his mind.

I go back to my house downstairs, welcomed by Woojin who is standing in front of my door and carrying a black plastic bag. He greets me with his snuggletooth smile.

"Woojin shi.. What are you doing here?" I ask him.

"I bring your favourite snacks - spicy rice cakes and fish cakes. Let's eat them at the picnic table on the patio." He smiles brightly. "BTW did you just comes down from your new neighbour's house? Has he already becomes friendly to you?" He asks with a cheerful tone in it.

"Ahaha.. I just give him some of his letters from the mailbox outside. His name is quite nice." I lied.

"You know his name? What was it?" Woojin asks again, I can see the eagerness from his eyes.

"I forgot about it.. Let's go to eat these snacks. It will turn cold soon." I try to take him to the lawn downstairs but he goes to Mr Park's house direction.

He knocks on Mr Park's door a few times. He ignores all my words for him to stop his actions. The sound of the knob opened shocked me. Does Mr Park really want to expose himself to Woojin too?

"Yes? Who is the one knocks on my door?" Mr Park comes out from his house with a pair of sunglasses and mask, covering his face.

"Hello! You know me, right? Park Woojin, Hana's best friend. I would like to become your friend because I think our ages are the same." Woojin lends his hand to Mr Park, trying to get a handshake from him.

It's quite fascinating that Mr Park decides to shake Woojin's hand, which is one of his workers. "So.. Can I reenter my house? I have a lot of works to do." Mr Park asks Woojin who is still amused by the handshakes.

"Wait! Hana said that your name is nice. May I know your name so that it will be easy for me to call you when I arrived here?" Woojin stops Mr Park from closing his house's door.

I exchange gazes with Mr Park who seems shocked when he heard Woojin's explanation. He clears his throat a bit before creating some weird names. "Park.. Park Hyun." He utters.

I try to hold my laughter listening to his fake name. Woojin excitedly thanks him before walking down to the lawn to eat with me. I follow him from the back with humor surrounds me. Mr Park suddenly stops me from stepping down the stairs.

"Mr Park.. What's wrong?" I still have a big smile on my face due to hold the laughter.

"Can I join..?"
