Better Off

"Boss" I look up from the stacks of papers and saw my secretary with a folder on her hand "stockholders, Sir Bambam and Ms Jisoo already signed this.. we just need you to sign it" she said leaving the folder on my desk making me nod. I was about to get the folder when my phone rings so I grab it and saw Jisoo calling

"Aren't you in your office? You could've just went here"

"I'm busy.. you go here" I was about to complain when she hang up making me sigh as I stood up from my chair and walk towards the door to go to Jisoo's office. I open up the door and saw that she's eating chicken on her very clean table without even a single paper work

"You're busy?" She smile at me like a kid and wave her hand to gesture for me to come in

"I'm busy eating " she said smiling at me. It's just 1 pm and we just had our lunch around 12 noon and she's eating again

"If you're gonna tell me to eat then just forget it I have so much work to do"

"I'm not even planning on sharing my food. But anyway I told you to come here because Ms pretty pretty head over heels will arrive at the airport tomorrow" she said

"Rosie?"

"No..that's my Ms pretty pretty witty baby chubby. What I mean is your Ms Pretty pretty scary girly" I nod my head slowly getting who it is

"Just let someone pick her up I'll be busy tomorrow " I said making Jisoo roll her eyes since I've been busy lately or should I say in the last 6 years I'm just keeping myself busy.

I walk towards my secretary's table and asked for a training schedule today. I'll just do a random check on the trainees since some of them are slacking off and it shows on their monthly performances. I walk towards the elevator and go towards the 5th floor. 1st floor is the cafeteria and the lobby for guests or people who wants to work for the company or even someone who wants to be a trainee. 2nd, 3rd and 4th floor are all dorms for our trainees so they don't have to pay for rents nor go home while training. We also give trainees their dorm cards that also works for the elevator for their safety. So basically if you don't have a card you can't have access to the 2nd,3rd and 4th floor. 5th floor is the gym and indoor sports that they can do for entertainment and also to keep their body fit for all the trainings. 6th floor is the dance studios and the media center where they create or edit the music videos and other clips that the company release. 7th floor is the recording studios and the lounge where most trainees have fun or even those who debuted already. 8th floor is where the management office, different departments and boss' offices. And finally at the top floor is my whole penthouse where I basically live. Just like the trainess I have my own card for security as well so I only have my access on my penthouse but since we also have the keypad access on our elevator Jisoo, Bambam and the other close people to me can easily enter my penthouse easily since they know the pin. We don't usually have separate dorms for those artist who debuted since they mostly buy their own apartment instead of staying at their dorm.

I walk out of the elevator as I reached the 5th floor and saw some trainees slacking off outside the dance studios. I look at the folder I'm holding and saw that they actually have the day to practice by themselves since one of my choreographer is out of town. I walk towards 2 girls who are sitting at the ground while gossiping about something. They probably noticed a presence infront of them making them look up. They immediately stood up and bow down 90° infront of me

"If you keep chilling might as well hand over your dorm cards and go home" I said which they apologize to immediately "4 more hours of practice for your whole group " I said before leaving them. It's just the 2 of them outside but their group should also have the responsibility to keep all of their members inside and they should practice together. During monthly evaluations I can see individuals who work hard so I sometimes move them to another group or keep them solo. I check each room and as expected there are a lot of people who are not working hard so right after I do the random check I told my secretary to give warnings or might as well kick the trainees out if they won't do their best.

"Boss" she calls out before I can even open up the door to my office "the folder needs approval by the end of the day" she said making me nod. I enter my office and take my coat off to put it on the rack. I check a couple more papers here and there before my eyes caught the red folder

I sit down properly and open it up and saw lots of signed space already and my name is the only one left. It's a request of taking a company to be our partner for clothing. It'll be great if we get to have a sponsor for our trainees and idols' outfits without the need of putting out so much money. In exchange the company wanted to have access inside the building as well as being around during the monthly evaluations of possible idols. Like the usual they also want our idols to model for their brand and all that.

I grab my pen and put it right beside my name to sign it after reading. Once I'm at the very end I lean back on my chair as I saw the name of the clothing company...
