Yanna:

I gripped the sheets tightly in annoyance. It's Monday, and the Holiday break is over. That only means it's time to face reality again. When I say reality, it means tons and tons of paper works in the office.

I just finished taking a bath and having my breakfast. I face the mirror. I opened the cabinet and saw the box which was given to me by a stranger— that gift someone sent me for Christmas. Well, he said he's not a stranger. He said I know him.

I opened the box and saw the bracelet and pair of earrings inside. I wore it. Maybe there's no harm wearing it.

I managed to enter the office and greet my workmates with a smile.  They all seem to be in a good mood. Lucky them.

I started rummaging through the pile of papers in front  of me. This is what I don't like about breaks, there surely are a lot to do after that.

Lunch break, temporary escape from hell.  I quickly held my bag and drove to the nearest food place from my workplace.

I sat there quietly while chewing the burger I had just bitten. I sip my juice and swallow the piece of bread in my throat. My phone buzzed from my pocket.

Hoseok♡:
Yanna! Are you eating your lunch?
Me:
Yeah. I was about to swallow another bite of burger but you texted so it's  stuck in my mouth now.
Hoseok♡:
Gross.
Me:
Disturbance.
Hoseok♡:
Meanie!
Me:
Yeah I am.
Hoseok♡:
(╥﹏╥)
Me:
I'm sorry,but seriously though, it looks like you.
Hoseok♡:
It looks like me. We're both cute.
Me:
Yeah, whatever.
Hoseok♡:
Anyway, I just texted to check on you. Don't tire yourself too much eat well.
Me:
Yes, you too. Eat well Hobi.

I finished eating the burger and sipped the remaining juice in the glass before returning to my workplace.

I continued my work for what seemed like hours. I just stopped when the phone beside my table suddenly rang, startling me.

:Yes Mr. Kim?
:I need you in my office right now.
: Yes, sir.

I entered the office, bowing go my boss.
"Have a seat Miss Yanna."

I sat on the couch and looked up to him. "Are you done with your work?"
"Almost sir."
"Great. Can we have dinner later?"
"Dinner?"
"Yes."
"But why sir?"
"I have something to tell you. I will pick you up from your apartment at exactly 8pm."
"Yes sir."
"Didn't I say you should call me by my first name?"
"Yes Taekwon."
"I'll see you later Miss Yanna."

I bowed to him and left his office.

What does he have to tell me?
