I hauled the body of metal and wires into my work space.

"What do you have to salvage this time, Y/n?" The familiar man walks up and leans against the frame of the doorway with his hands in his pockets.

"I'm not sure yet. I have to look into the development of the machine and the coding. Along with the functions for which it was created, but that will be no problem. The part that takes a little bit is matching it to the specific model. It looks as if it is a 'alpha 36 pro', but the design seems to be more of a '29 plus'. All I know for sure is that it isn't an beta version. However, I haven't gotten into the possibility of a-" I start ranting, but he stops me.

"Jeez, Y/n! I just asked a simple question." I look up to see his eyes wide. He probably wasn't keeping up with my explanations. Honestly, it happens. Nobody is able to understand my thinking. No one here, at least.

"Oops.. sorry, Jin. I forgot. Anyway, the model is an older version of some sort of robot. I don't really know since the boss just gave it to me. She wasn't able to keep up with the information the owner was saying to her, so she took it and gave it to me to fix a few minutes ago. Now, I have to find the base information by myself." I explain as I fidget with the machine. It gives my finger a controlled shock, making me yelp a bit and quickly pull back my hand.

"Be careful, Mooncalf." He chuckles at his own insult.

"Yeah. Thanks, Pillock." I don't spare a glance in his direction as I continue to explore the model in front of me.

He rolls his eyes. "Listen, you-"

"You what?" A figure comes up behind him, making Jin stop in his tracks.

"Oh. Hey, Jisoo." He awkwardly smiles at the woman.

"You were about to say 'genius' or 'angel', correct? She is my best employee after all. It is inconvenient to have a pest in her work space now isn't it?" She sweetly smiles, but in a way that the frustration behind it was clearly visible.

"Y-yeah." He rubs the back of his neck.

She scoffs. "Go to your office, Seokjin. I need to talk to Y/n." She sternly commands. My head perks up at the mention of my name. Immediately, Jin is on his way to wherever he needs to be. I triumphantly watch through the big window of my office as the burden rushes away, leaving me with the woman.

"So, what is it that you wanted?" I turn my chair to face her while leaning back.

She sighs. "He's here again. He requested to meet you privately this time." She crosses her arms.

I groan and throw my head back in my chair. "That man doesn't know when to give up. If I haven't said yes already, what makes him think I will accept his offer now?" I speak to myself while massaging the bridge of my nose.

"He's a greedy man who will stop at nothing to obtain the best for himself, and that's exactly what you are."

I weakly smile at her and sit up. "Okay, tell him I will meet him in a moment. I just need to work out a few kinks before I can feel satisfied enough to talk." She nods her head before leaving me alone in the office.

I walk in the room and close the door behind me. Then turn around to see his despicable face, and I force a fake grin onto my own.

"Y/n, how are you?" He warmingly greets.

"I just got a new assignment, so let's make this quick, shall we?" My lips turn up into a cold tight smile as I walk to the chair opposite of his.

"Very well then. You know why I'm here." He leans foward, putting his forearms on the blank white table in front of the both of us.

"All too well. I don't know why you keep coming back to me for this. I have told you many times over that I will not be accepting your work offer. I do not wish to leave this place."
