(Choi Seungcheol's PoV)

-It didn't even took me a minute to realize those malicious stares following me after I got out of the elevator.

Everyone's making it too obvious that I am the topic of their conversation.

They don't even bother hiding those fingers pointed at me together with the disgusted look on their faces

Everyone's busy judging me from head to toe

Like I am the filthiest person alive in here

"Don't mind them Cheol. They shouldn't matter right now, the board of directors is waiting for you"

-joshua noticed the grim look on my face and immediately distracted me from having further thoughts. Well it didn't help, he just reminded me of those old business men I didn't really wanna see today. Not after what happened the other day. I'm sure they are exactly just like these persons murmuring in every corner.

"How do you expect me to do that Hong Jisoo? You're not the one in torture right now"

"I know. But you need to remain composed. Hindi natin alam ang aabutan natin sa loob"

-how dare he lie right i front of my face? Kahit ako alam kona kung anong mangyayari.

"You're a terrible liar"

-joshua snorted before we entered another elevator making me feel more suffocated as I hear the employees inside making airy laughs. God damn it.

"Close your damn mouths, It smells like fart"

-it's my turn to snort when I heard the savage Joshua. Shit, did he just shut them up and humiliated them at that the same time? That easy? I missed this devil Jisoo.

I couldn't help but to punch him jokingly while walking at the familiar corridor.

"Damn Joshua, matagal kitang hindi narinig magsabi ng ganyan"

"Ganon ba? Sige, from now on aaraw arawin kona para sayo"

-I simply took few glances on his face. We never got the chance to talk properly since Jeonghan suddenly went missing and it makes me feel guilty. I accused him earlier of not having the grasp of my situation when in fact he didn't really know what exactly happened. He never asked and also, never judged. Ako tong walang naiitulong, wala akong nakuhang kahit ano nung gabing pumunta ako sa studio ni Mingyu at kahit na abangan kopa sya sa labas at magpabalik balik wala parin akong makuhang kahit ano dahil sa puñyetang higpit ng security nya. I nearly went through a fist fight with his guards kung hindi lang dumating si Joshua. It's him whose working really hard.

"Joshua"

"Hmm?"

-he hummed without sparing me a glance.

"Let's try again today"

-he nodded in an instant. Getting what I meant with those simple words. We're both persistent and we're not backing out.

"G-goodmorning CEO Lee"

-Joshua backed out from the door handle when it was suddenly pulled from the inside and just like that Ceo Lee appeared in front of us in an instant. The frown on his face...

I didn't like it.

"Oh organizer Hong, from now on you'll be in charge of the EvOr department"

"P-po?"

-yun kaagad ang bungad nya samin.

"Organizer Yoon was fired just this morning. He's no longer part of the company so you need to work hard huh"
