" Move it." Chief Min grunted as Seungwan rolled her eyes, begrudgingly moving her bag
from his seat so he could sit. The following week was easily the worst for the team. Both of the interns ducked their heads whenever Chief Min walked grumpily onto the set, handing them a pile of paperwork.

And the tension was even more uncomfortable with the fact that Seungwan was making Chief Min's blood boil with the simplest of actions. His stack of bottles concealed with soju had been thrown into the trash, and Seungwan could do nothing but smile her acidic little smile at the sight of his furious reaction, while the rest of their workers hid behind their computers.

Their team was practically a battleground, and neither Seungwan nor Yoongi had the pride to surrender. 

Seungwan lets out a quiet sigh and watches Yoongi from the corner of her eye. His jaw was clenched slightly, eyes focusing on the computer screen in front of him.

" Hey Jongin, tell your assistant manager that she needs to send the outline to me."

" H-Huh?" Jongin replies with a shaky voice. His voice was muffled and Seungwan turns to see that his eyes were peeking out from the top of the plastic divider, clearly horrified.

" Didn't you hear me?" Yoongi snapped childishly, causing Seungwan's blood to boil as she gritted her teeth.

" Assistant Son, Chief Min wants-"

" Its alright Jongin, I have ears. And if your boss over there has something to say he can say it right in front of me." She hisses back, aiming her target towards Yoongi who shifts his gaze to her. Seungwan could practically feel his stare a hole into the side of her face.

" You're forgetting who the actual boss is, Seungwan." He mutters stiffly. Seungwan smirks.

" Why should I..Chief Min? " She says in her cloying tone, a mock cheerful grin plastered across her face. Yoongi rolls his eyes and turns back to his work.

" The evening will be pretty warm with a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, followed by a light drizzle of rain later on. Make sure you bring your umbrellas..." Jin was currently on-air and Seungwan seemed to be concentrating heavily on the announcer rather than her boss beside her.

She was getting tired of the games she played every day. Her life was turning into a miserable world.

Seungwan pulled away and turned to stand, deciding to head out of the stuffy set to get some fresh air.

It was currently almost 5:00 with the most viewers channeling to watch NEX News. Seungwan squirmed in her chair, feeling a stab against her stomach.

Her eyes widen as she desperately searched for a pad in her mess of a handbag before carefully heading out towards the restroom

Yoongi's eyes hadn't left the computer screens only shifting the slightest at the sight of Seungwan who rushed out of the station

" She thinks she can leave just like that?"
Yoongi scoffs.

Yoongi was kidding himself if he thought that he wasn't the slightest bit exasperated from their argument. Seungwan knew what drove him mad and used it to her advantage. He clenched his jaw and pulled his secret compartment, finding a bottle of aoju left untouched by Seungwan before picking it up from it's hiding spot.
