Chorong

I don't know why but to hear those words from Bomi, I can't concentrate on anything."Chorong." Mom said while waving her hand at my face. I stood up from my chair and walked to our fridge."What's wrong?" She asked. That's what I was thinking about, actually.

"Mom, I'll be going out." I told her before walking towards the door. I was thinking about their relationship because It is most likely an arranged marriage."I should probably stop watching dramas." I took my cellphone out and dialed Taehyung's number.

Why isn't he picking up? Oh, "Chorong!" I heard Taehyung shout on the other line. It was nice to hear his voice since I love how deep his voice is. I kind of told him about what happened last night."You liked him! When and why? You better tell me the details, noona."

"Let's meet up at the cafe, next to Tuan Company." I told him before hanging up. When I reached the cafe, I already saw Taehyung sitting on a table for two people. I waved at him amd he did too."Hey, how are you?" I asked.

Taehyung looks pretty serious, today. He rarely makes a face like that."Noona, I want to tell you something." He told me, fidgeting with his fingers."I know we don't know each other that long yet, but can I ask you to be my girlfriend?"

That was the time where my view on Taehyung changed, It was like my brother turned to a grown-up man. I couldn't process what he just asked to me."What are you talking about, TaeTae?" I asked him.

He looked sincere with his feelings,"It's okay, if you don't like me. I never expected anything." Taehyung said and then stood up from his chair."I am going to go back and do some work. Yeah, I have tons of them today!"

"Taehyung.."I said as I watched him leave the cafe. I bit my lip and thought about how Taehyung felt."This is not what I was expecting from him, too. I am going to regret this." I run after him and luckily he was just waiting outside.

Taehyung's face showed how shock he was to see me and at the same time how embarrassed he is."Taehyung, I want to try and date you. There is no way knowing that I may learn to love you, right? So, why not?" I told him.

His face lit up and then touched the back of neck."I don't know how but I'll make you fall in love with me, somehow." He told me, smiling. I couldn't help but be flattered at how mature he sounds.

Taehyung was about to hug me, when my phone started ringing."Oh, excuse me." I said, picking up the phone."Hey, what's the matter?" It was Mark and it was a pretty wrong timing. He asked me to come to his office.

"I'll go with you." I told Taehyung as I hid my phone inside my bag. He raised an eyebrow, hinting me to tell why."Well, I got a job as Mark's secretary. I am actually worried since Mark probably doesn't approve with office affairs." except for Naeun, though.

Taehyung nodded."Then we won't tell anyone, but still I would love to tell someone how lovely you are, Noona." He said which made my heart beat faster. Oh my god, when did this all start?

"Noona, can I call you by your name?" He asked me. I was about to reply when he called me,"Chorong." I couldn't take it and walked ahead of him. This guy is younger than me, I shouldn't be doing this.

I wish Taehyung would be more not obvious about it but he treats me like his 'someone'."Noona, watch out.", "Noona, your hair is a mess.", " Noona, don't go around without me.", "Noona, I'll wait for you until lunch." and now everyone is constantly looking at us.

"I have to meet Mark." I told him and it made him sulk. He waved his hand while I walk towards Mark's office. I opened the door to see Mark doing some paper works."Good morning."

"So, you are going to start today. Naeun is not going back until she finishes preparing for her wedding. You can go sit at her desk outside and do what I ask you to do. Check my schedules and always be by my side." He told me then placed a paper and a pen in front of me."Just sign here."

I signed the paper and was ordered to make a coffee for Mark. Last night, we were just talking about my feelings amd here I am."Hey, Chorong." a coworker greeted me."Why are you here? Got your job back?"

"Yeah, I got a job."

"Well, nice to see you again."

I started making Mark's black coffee while thinking how it would differ from Naeun's."I mean, it's going to be differe-" arms snaked around my waist causing me to leap in shock."Taehyung?" I gasped.

I pushed his arms away and faced him. He was smiling ear to ear."Are you making coffee for Mark?" He asked. I nodded."Do you want eat lunch, together? I know a place." Taehyung suggested.

Can you sense how different he talks, right now? He sound so mature. I nodded, without thinking about anything. The coffeemaker made a sound, I poured the coffee in a mug."Well, I have to go." I said, smiling.

I walked back inside Mark's office and placed the mug beside him."Wait outside. I'll just call you if I need you." He told me. I went outside and sit on my desk. Hm, papers everywhere.

My phone showed a notification on my screen which says 'Oh Hayoung finally left her modeling agency.' I quickly opened it and it really is true. I wonder why would she do it.

It's been hours and I did what Mark would tell me to do. I had to check his schedule, be with him in his meetings, talk to people who needs appointment with him, and ect. I checked my watch, it's already 11:47.

Mark's office door opened,"Let's go?" He asked me. I showed him a puzzled look to what is he talking about."Don't tell me you forgot about my promise to you."

Oh yeah, but Taehyung and I were going to have lunch together. Wait, what am I going tell Mark? "Chorong, let's go?" Taehyung walked towards us with a very serious aura. He grabbed my hand, then looked at Mark.
