Why Are You So Annoying?

Chapter 2

☾⛧The way through a girl's heart is through her stomach... or not ⛧☽

"Part-time job check. Thesis paperwork about 30% accomplished. Finish at least four more pages tonight." Hayi mentally checks her to-do list as she fixes her bag. She just finished her shift in the convenience store. Today has been extremely chaotic, and it's a miracle she's still alive. All she wants right now is to go back to her dorm room and eat a cup of ramen and-

Before she can finish her sentence, two people walk into the store. Wooseok and Hangyul smile at her as they make their way to the counter. "Why are you both late?" Hayi asks with her eyes piercing to them, but more towards Hangyul. "I'm just fashionably late," Wooseok responded and broke Hayi's gaze.

Sometimes, it still surprises her that this specific co-worker can be so sassy. Before she can even retort, he's already casually entering the storage room with a cheeky smile on his face. "He doesn't usually come late so don't scold him. I think it's his first time this month." Hangyul tries to cooly add while slowly making his way to follow his partner.

However, Hayi snapped her head back to him with eyes burning with fire. She exclaimed, "Well you, Lee Hangyul, have been late for the hundredth time... and today is the hundred first!" Hayi takes one step at a time towards Hangyul, and the boy is now shaking like a leaf.

You see, Hayi is an independent woman and she can do anything she sets her mind on. Well, she isn't just an independent woman but a strong one too. That's why no one should anger her for the dragon will be unleashed.

"Don't murder him!" Yuvin shouted dramatically, running as if someone is going to die. He dragged Hayi out of the store, but before he completely exits the store, he shoots an "I've got this" look to Hangyul while Hangyul sends back a grateful look and mouths "Thank you!"

All of them have been working together for the last couple of months. The boys have especially formed a special bond with each other, while Hayi... well, she is just her usual self.

Hayi pushed Yuvin away and glared at him. "Why did you do that?!" She argued. He just shrugs with a silly smile on his face and said, "You should take it easy on Hangyul. You know he's been practicing his routine for the competition." In fact, that is correct. Hangyul is indeed practicing very hard lately which may or may not be the reason why he's yet again late today.

"I'm just trying to discipline him! He should learn how to balance his time well. Work is work." she replied. It was silent for a second there. Hayi looks at Yuvin and sees him breaking into a smile. "He is not like you, Ms. Go StrongIndependentWoman Hayi." He annoyingly said.

This is what Hayi hates the most. She cannot tame Yuvin no matter what she does. Today is another proof of that so she just rolled her eyes and said: "I'm going home." Yuvin puts himself in front of the way with arms opened wide to stop her from leaving.

"Let's eat dinner!" he cheerfully said. Without wasting a second, "No." she quickly turned him down and tries to sidestep the obstacle aka Song Yuvin. However, he moves fast and blocked her way again. "C'mon! It will be my treat!" He tries to persuade her more.

Who doesn't like free food? Even the StrongIndependentWoman Hayi will bend to free food. Hayi is now thinking that a cooked meal will be far better than her usual ramen dinner. She can also use this opportunity to get away from her thesis workload, but the problem is sitting on a table with this boy who has an attention span of a goldfish. While Hayi was lost in her thoughts, Yuvin took the chance to pull her and take her to the opposite way. Well, there goes Hayi's plan to do her thesis tonight.
