❝ Trouble doesn't find us, we look for it. ❞
A day in the life of a worker at NEX broadcasting network isn't as boring as one would think.
Different jobs.
Different allies.
One company.
Bae Joohyun , a marketing manager ,works her life to the f...
" They lost the script? " Taehyung asks, standing up from his chair. Joohyun nods, walking over to the man. Taehyung furrowed his eyebrows, watching Joohyun's uneasy expression.
" And what's got you so worried Joohyun ? You're a marketing manager."
" One of their script writers is my friend." Joohyun replied quickly, folding her arms, watching Taehyung crack his knuckles.
" Personal feelings over work matters?" He mumbled back.
" Anyways, where's your friend? "He asked, eyes moving to his desk.
" In my office." Joohyun sighed. The director walks over and pulls a yellow file from his desk, before waving it for Joohyun to see.
" Let's go." He states, jogging to the door before the two get out of the office.
Only Kim Taehyung would deal with things as directly as this. Joohyun didn't even bother to comment about his absurd work outfit which consisted of ripped jeans, a white " Supreme" shirt, and a pair of worn out sneakers.
To anyone passing it would seem like a teacher escorting her highly rebellious student for detention.
" You haven't sent me your edited version of the slides yet Joohyun." He added, once Joohyun caught up yo him.
" I was going to but Seulg-"
" Excuses." He said simply, eyeing the short women beside him. Joohyun rolled his eyes and stomped ahead.
Upon arrival to Joohyun's office, Taehyung turns the door and enters in to dee Seulgi biting her nails hysterically.
" Director Kim? " Seulgi asks when she spots the man striding inside. She bows her head. Taehyung gives her a firm nod.
" Were you the one who lost the script? " he asks carefully, watching Seulgi's face crumple once she nodded her head.
"I'msosorryIdidn'tmeantodoitIjustaccidentallyforgottomakeaspareforitandI-" Seulgi stopped, looking up to see the man towering above her before her eyes begin to turn glossy. She looks down and sees a yellow file tucked under the director's arm.
" Did you get a call from my boss,Director Kim? You're going to fire me right? That file in you hand is for my replacement right? " Seulgi blubbers, her voice barely intact.
Joohyun glares at the director who only stares down at the emotionally unstable employee. Director Kim hands the file to Seulgi, watching a tear fall down her face.
" I'll just take it and go now. Joohyun Eonnie, it was nice working with you-"
" Now wait a minute Seulgi. Director Kim, is this your way of handling the situation? She made a mistake and you're going to fire her? " Joohyun seethes.
Walking angrily up to her boss, pointing to the yellow file. Director Kim simply, watches as Joohyun starts to fume in anger.
" I'm doing what's right." He says, running a hand through his hazel toned hair.
" Right? What's our definition of right? Firing people? Director Kim, if this is how you're going to deal with this situation, then I won't be needing your help."
" Please don't get mad Joohyun. Director Kim is right, I made a mistake." Seulgi says, trudging away.
" Yeah, the mistake of working for a man like him-"
" Seulgi-ssi?" Taehyung calls out.
" Yes sir?" Seulgi stops walking, turning back to the director.
" Why don't you open that file first? " He asks. Seulgi nods her head and opens the yellow envelope to pull out a thick packet of paper.
" Wait isn't this the..script?" Seulgi's jaw drops and Joohyun stares in horror. She turns back to her boss, watching his unrelentingly annoying smirk stay on his face.
The man bends down to match Joohyun's height before pointing to the file. Director Kim's ebony eyes were twinkling mischievously.
" Like you were saying Joohyun-ssi? " Taehyung smiles cloyingly. Joohyun feels her ears burning up.
" Where did you get this from, sir? " Seulgi asks, holding the packet like a new born child.
" You're boss didn't tell you? She asked me to see if the script was good for airing. And if I'm remembering correctly, you were the one who dropped this to my office." Taehyung shrugs, watching Seulgi rub her puffy eyes with the back of her sleeve.
" Joohyun-ssi." The director states, turning his head back to Joohyun who was frowning.
" Director Kim." She acknowledges.
" I can't wait to see those revised slides by today. Along with a letter of apology, perhaps? " He smiles slyly, patting Joohyun's back before, heading out of her office.
" I'll be seeing you around Seulgi-ssi. I'm hoping you'll continue to work for a 'man like me' ." And with that , Director Kim happily defeats the Bae Joohyun once more.
" Kang Seulgi-ssi." Joohyun smiles, hands forming into fists. Seulgi laughs nervously, backing away from her friend.
" Let's talk for a second okay?" Joohyun platers a fake smile in her face. Seulgi, already ridden with fear, escapes from the hell that was Joohyun's office.
" You seem to be busy Joohyun Eonnie. I'll see you around. Byeeee." Seulgi says slamming the door shut.
" What did I do in my life to receive this kind of torture? " Joohyun asks, wobbling back to her chair.
