Chapter 1
Storage Room
6PM, Gangnam:
“C’mon, the Guys are already waiting for us!” said the one with the Prada bag on her shoulder.
“Umm…Sunny, are we going to invite….umm…her?” asked the cute one of whom men in the office would naturally have a crush on. She pointed to the girl on the corner who was wearing glasses and has her head bent low as she was reading a document.
“I don’t think so. It’ll be boring to bring her with us, Yoona.” Said Sunny.
“Well… if you say so.” Yoona walked after Sunny.
“Wait for me!” called a blonde girl who has her brows together as she passionately typed on her computer.
“If you can catch up. You always make us wait, Luna.” Said Sunny.
“I just needed to send that last email, that level 7 manager was already following up.” Said Luna.
“You mean that scary fox?” asked Yoona
“Yeah.” Luna sighed. “I wish they could switch the roles back. Everything was great back when it was still Mr. Choi who was handling this project. It all became chaotic when he transferred the project to the scary fox.” Said Sunny.
“Mr. Choi is the best Boss in this company, Luna. You were lucky you had the chance to work with him.” Said Yoona. “I would love to work with him.”
Yoona had that dreamy look in her eyes.
“If he would just look at me as a woman.” Said Luna.
“Hey, don’t dream to high.” Said Sunny. “He’s a level 7. And we’re what?”
“Level 1.” Said Yoona.
The three of them sighed.
“Why is the ladder so high?” asked Yoona.
“Realistically, how long does it take for us to reach level 7?” asked Luna.
“In average? People get there around fifteen years after hiring.” Said Sunny.
“We’re old by then.” Said Yoona.
“And Mr. Choi is at Level 10 already by then. He will always be out of our league.” Said Luna. “He’s so young yet he’s already at level 7. And he’s such a great Boss. He knows how to demand without sounding mean. He makes people get energized and want to reach his goals with him. Such an awesome boss!”
“I guess he got that from being the University Football team captain.” Said Sunny.
“True. A sports celebrity of the country, an achiever Boss in a multinational company…. What else is there to ask?” asked Luna. “And he’s so single from what I heard! How come he doesn’t get a girlfriend? Does he not feel attraction towards any woman?”
“That is why we need to move on and forget him. He is an impossible star to reach. Let’s go, the guys are waiting.” Said Sunny.
Luna sighed followed by Yoona.
The three girls went out.
The girl in the corner stretched her arm. She took her glasses off and hooked it on her collar. When everyone is out partying on Friday night, she is always left at the office still doing lots of work.
“Five more emails to go.” Said the girl.
“Hey Sulli!”
The girl in the corner looked at the man who called her name.
