:: 11 :: The Unexpected Trip

YUTA'S POV

This week passed by a blur since we are examining R3X3 to find out what kind of games should we develop. We don't have a certain deadline yet but everyone, especially my current Team (Team 1) is working like there's no tomorrow. I didn't even realize that the monthly evaluation is today. They would fire the bottom 3 as what they said.

"Would it be you? Or you?" The CEO pointed at us. He is currently in our department to announce who the bottom 3 is. He went here with Director Kun and his secretary, which became Taeyong's secretary for a week. Actually, it became a bothersome at some point. I don't know why but I think it's because I can't call him by his name and really became aware of my surrounding when they are together. It's weird, right?

Honestly speaking, I've decided to be myself around Taeyong. The jolly and cheerful Yuta because... I don't know. He has done so much for me and I really am glad and thankful.

"So for the bottom three..." CEO said making all our hearts stop for a moment. Please... not me. I wished.

I felt like my heart would jump out of me any minute. I did my best at work but nervousness is just killing me.

"There isn't a bottom three!" CEO announced, surprising all of us. "Since four employees of this department had been fired, we wouldn't choose another bottom 3 but instead, award the top 5!" he added, smiling. So... we're all safe, right? That's what it means right?

"The top t would be given a three days, 2 nights off from work and spend it on a trip at Kiryakkii Lake Resort." I felt at ease with that announcement. Not because of the trip but because of the fact that I am safe. I don't need to be in top 5 because all I need and want is to survive in this industry.

"As for those 5 lucky individuals, we have Doyoung, Zhong Cheng Le, Lee Dong Hyuk, Na Jaemin and Nakamoto Yuta!" Director Kun suddenly said. Wait... me???

I was shocked by the announcement more than others did. They looked at me as if they knew this would come but I didn't.

My co-employee beside me congratulated me already. Wait.. is it really me?

I raised my hand to ask a question to the CEO. He called me and entertained my question. "We've been working on something and I think it would be better for me to just work and not go on a trip. Is it fine?"

The CEO smiled at me but his face kind of looks like he can't believe I just asked that. "Nakamoto Yuta right? This trip isn't just a leisure trip. It is kinda a Team Building kind of trip wherein I had someone arranged missions for all of you." He said looking at me. He know steps around to build his authority while looking at everyone of us and speaking. "As a gamers or a game makers, you should know and have an experience in the outside of your working tablet or computers. This would serve as an adventure to the 5 of you who, by what I observed, make games based on their intelligence and not on experience." he said then stopped walking.

"Me and the CEO wouldn't be around but our secretaries will. They will look for you but at the same time, operate the missions as what we have planned. Don't worry because they, themselves, doesn't know what kind of mission there is. I hope everything is clear right now and everyone I said would participate fairly and actively." Director Kun said then look at me.

Embarrassment towered me as I felt like I asked a stupid question. Of course, I should be there.

"Go back to your desks. As for the top 5, prepare your things. You'll be living at 6 pm today" Director Kun said before he left with his secretary and the CEO. Today already??

Like the others, I went back to my own desk. I was arranging my things when Doyoung and Haechan approached me.

"Aren't you fond of trips?" Team Leader Doyoung asked. Yup! He's my team leader now.
