"I didn't know you used to wear glasses."
"Oh. Good morning Ilhoon-ssi!"
"Is my sister inside?"
"They are still in the meeting but you can go inside. Do you need anything? Or something to drink?"
"No. I'm fine I'm just going to wait here."
"But you can wait inside."
"... It looks good on you."
"Ah thanks!"

The meeting lasts longer than the usual so Ilhoon and I got to talk a little bit longer this time.

"Oh Ilhoonie!"

He nodded and followed his sister inside.

I just continue my life the way it should be. As days passed by, I used to hearing their songs everywhere, I can now manage to look at his pictures posted anywhere with no regrets or hatred just a sincere feeling of being proud.

Life must go on. I just made myself busy all this time since the company will soon celebrate it's 3rd anniversary. There will be a program where each department needs to present their own project and tonight is their final touch. It means over time!

"Yujin! Areum! Sorry I have another sched for today."
"It is okay."
"By the way are you both free tomorrow?"
"After the schedule. I think we are. Why?"
"So its a yes! We will have a small dinner just with my family."
"I think I am not supposed to join you." With Yujin it is understandable they are business partners but I am just her secretary so?
"Nope. You are coming as well Areum-a."
"Hm~ okay."

I'm not part of any department's project but look at me I'm the one who is more stress than the participants.

I don't get enough of sleep for few days already. Since I need to make sure everything will flow smoothly on the day of the event.

I feel so sleepy maybe a 5 minutes nap won't hurt? I'll just take a nap. 5 minutes. Just 5 minutes.

I was about to doze off when I felt someone seat in front of me.

"Hmm"
"You need that one."

A coffee.

"Thanks Ilhoon-ssi but I really want to sleep."
"Okay. Then sleep."
"Wait. Can you wake me up after 5 minutes. I might not hear my alarm."
"Okay."

I just heard voices over voices.
Then I look at my phone.
Damn. 1 hour.

I overslept!!

And where the fuck is Ilhoon? Ahhh!! I immediately went to the stock room because I have to check the deliveries.

"Hello, yes this is Areum from..."
"Yes!"
"I just want to ask regarding the delivery."
"No I mean. Wait you already delivered the supplies here?"
"I'm sorry I wasn't around earlier that's why I didn't notice."
"Thank you very much!"

As soon as I open the stock room I saw Ilhoon he is the one assisting the staff regarding the deliveries.

I am supposed to be mad at him for not waking me up but looking at his serious face. Should I be mad or scared?

"Oh you're awake already."

His serious face is now forming a small smile. After arranging the supplies we walk back to the lobby again.

"Why didn't you wake me up? I told..."
"You are a heavy sleeper."
"I'm not."
"Yes you are."
"I'm not."
"Anyway everything in your checklist is already done you just need to wait for the presentation later."
"Seriously?? Wait you... you did everything here??"
"Just go back to sleep. I promise I will wake you up before it starts."
"Ehh how can I sleep knowing the brother of my CEO and take note an idol as well does all of my job."
"So?..."
"So how can I pay you back? Oh! the coffee??"
"Ya! You sleep for an hour and you still think of that coffee. I'll just buy you another one."
"No. Omygoodness are you that eager to fire me?? I'm going to buy and I'm going to treat you as well. What do you want?"
"Hmm. I'm coming."
"How about no?"
"Yes I am."
"But..."

I am not used to this. Ilhoon is very different from... yeah from him. He doesn't care at all going into shops just like that. Yeah. Right.

Sabagay mapapagkamalan lang naman akong manager nito o  kaya PA/ pwede na rin stylist para sosyal.

The event was attended by investors, media, and of course BTOB. This is their first public appearance after the 3 oldest member completed the military enlistment.

It was a long day.

"Job well done everyone!"

I was trying to tie my hair when I accidentally pull something. My necklace.

"Areum you're done?" Yujin asked.
"Yes." Not paying attention to her. I cannot see what really happens to my necklace. It is either stuck in my hair or I broke it.
"What happen? I'm just going to the washroom."
"Okay."

I was busy fixing my necklace when I heard a group of people coming out from Arin's office but I was too pre-occupied with my necklace.

"Oh Areum you're good to go?"
"Ah yes Sajangnim I'm just waiting for Yujin."
"Okay!"
"Areum you must know them right?" Ilhoon asks me as he pointed to the 3 oldest of BTOB.
"Ah yes! Hello I'm Areum!"

Still one hand on my necklace.

"What happened?" Pointing on my necklace.
"I don't know It's still stuck."
"Let me see. Come here."

Ilhoon put on my necklace that we forgot everyone's watching.

He is fixing my necklace while facing me. I mean our face is just inches apart and too late before we realize it.

Suddenly Sungjae burst from laughter and the other members glared at him but joined him as well.

I can feel how red I am right now as well as Ilhoon.
