[CURRENTLY REVISING]
Lia is a perfect being from a perfect world. But that didn't satisfy her. Being perfect wasn't what she wanted, but after finding out about the human realm, it seems like she changed.
An perfect being, wanting to be imperfect?

"Yeji! Do you know that July 21st is your father and I's anniversary? I expect you to shower us with hugs, okay?"
"Yes, sweetie. Daddy will always be here for you. Your mother and I love you so much."
My eyes fluttered open as I found my head resting on my arms. It took me seconds to notice I was still at my office.
I let out a groan and fix my blouse and wiped my eyes with the back of my hand.
Another stupid dream with the most stupid people I've ever met. I thought as I clicked my tongue in irritation.
I checked my wristwatch and realised I had stayed late at the building again. 3:01 am was nothing new.
I was always the last one to leave anyway. Aside from my security guards anyway. I don't pay them well to have them slack off.
I didn't work my butt off to have people like that work under my company. To some, I may seem like I expect a lot from others, because as a matter of fact, I do.
I have always maintained professionalism, either outside or inside of work. Some say it's a demeanour, some say it's a facade, well no. In fact, it's a personality of mine.
There was something about professionalism that I really liked. And that included not talking about things that had something to do with me personally.
History. Life goals. Relatives.
I didn't like talking about any of the three. Because none of those had anything to do with work.
Work defines me.
I worked hard, and because if that, I managed to secure a spot in the top 10- no, top 5, of the most successful companies in all of Korea.
I got to this point because I focused on work. I never thought of my history, I never tried achieving my bucket list, nor did I associate myself with any relatives.
Well, except two relatives.
Aunt Leona was my saviour. After my parents abandoned me, she was there to save me from all the other futures that could have probably led to me picking garbage in the streets and sharing meals with stray dogs.
I disliked the thought of having a rough and crumbled future. It would mean I'd have to depend on everything in my way, and I wouldn't be able to help myself if I needed it.
