Hwayugi fanfic (Korean odyssey) : Guardian

Work part 5

Her eyes shot open.

She's sitting in her office while the thunder is rumbling loudly outside the window.

How did she fell asleep in bright daylight? She's confused. She glances up at the ominous sky and then to her watch and rubs her forehead gently.

Someone is knocking on the door, in comes the other assistant Han Gi Jin.

She has a gift box in her hand and she places it on Seon Mi's table. Seon Mi looks up at her with a questioning look.

"Didn't you fill in the role for the male cologne advertisement? They really liked how it turned out and the studio said that they will give you a bottle as a thank you gift." Han Gi Jin explains and looks at her,

"Do you have someone you want to gift it to?"

She nods. Almost immediately, someone's figure appears on her mind.

But the next instance, she feels like her mind is suddenly clouded by fog and it's hammered with pain.

"Ouch........."

She presses her head into her hand.

"What's wrong???"

"It hurts......"

What's happening?? She feels like her vision is turning hazy white........

This is the first time she has felt something like this......

She looks at the gift box on the table, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

She gets up and walks to the sofa and sits down.

Han Gi Jin pours her a glass of water. She thanks her and drinks it down. Finally, that sense of discomfort finally starts to fade.

She rests on the sofa, only to realize that on the sofa opposite of her, Yuk-Gong is no longer here.

....................

Is it because the danger is no longer present so he took it back??

"I heard that Gong Ae Jung is officially diagnosed as brain dead by the hospital today. Her family is in a uproar now. If our company decides not to pay any more of her future treatments, then the matter will be set and final." Han Gi Jin returns to her desk and says lightly.

Seon Mi is sitting on the sofa dumbfounded. She feels like her mind is wrapped by a layer of fog, her thoughts are scrambled and hazy. Even if she tries to think, it seems like something is preventing her from doing so.....

-----------------------

"Off from work already?" Kim Bum Chul stops her in her track in the company corridor.

"Yes." She nods, "I thought you don't have any schedules today?"

He looks at the gift box she's holding in her hand,

"This is......."

"Ah, this is from the cologne advertisement from a few days ago, it's a gift from that company." She replies.

"Cologne from Luss?" He begins to smile.

"This is some good stuff. Judging at the packaging, this is one of their limited edition, they are very generous."

Limited edition? She's not really familiar with this sort of things.

But, would that person......like it??

When that thought crosses her mind, her mind begins to cloud over again, the pain starts to dull her mind. The wave of pain she felt during work returns again.
