After the cover shoot Yongsun returned to her company, into her room directly. Even though Yongsun wasn’t entitled to a manger nor a car, she was entitled to her own workspace in the company. It has basically pretty everything she need – Sofa, computer, laptop, work desk and a TV. She sat on the sofa and switched on the laptop, intending to read some news on the internet. There was a knock on the door, Eric’s head pop in, “Hey dear, the contract that you asked our lawyer to look through? I’m afraid it’s hard for you to overturn it, it’s actually flawless.”

Yongsun nodded and sigh. “Indeed…”

Eric came in and sat on the office chair in front of her, and as a habit he slid around it in.

“Can you be more gentle?” she shouted at him. “It took me several weeks to get the HR to change this chair for me. If it’s spoilt you’re going to ask the HR to get me another one.”

“Do you have any evidence that it was me who spoilt it, if the chair is spoilt that cause me to be injured I should be the one suing you instead, and also claiming that you did not state the proper usage of this chair.” Eric obviously learnt a phrase or two from their lawyer.

“That reminds me, I’m going to stick a note on it ‘Eric Nam prohibited from seating’.”

“Then I’m going to sue you! For discrimination, I have my rights too!”

“You’re crazy” Yongsun rolled her eyes at him, continuing to scroll on the news portal site.

He gave a hard push on his legs, slid the chair towards the front of Yongsun, he leaned his face near to her face and asked. “Pretty, shall we have dinner together later?”

“No thanks. I’m still feeling a bit uncomfortable from the wine last night, I don’t feel like eating anything too”

“You still need to work on your alcohol limits! Let’s not drink tonight, there’s a place which serves decent pork belly, I’m meeting a few variety producers, my treat.”

“Variety? I’m not interested. Besides, Yonghye is at home alone.”

“What happened exactly?”

“Nothing, she’s just unhappy working there. She wants a change of environment.”

“Is that department manager a ert? Why don’t she just transfer to another department instead. Or she could just do badly in her work, I saw the contract terms, if they were to fire instead they’ll have to compensate her huge amount instead!”

“Sure, I’ll consider.” She casually replied as she scrolled through the trackpad.

Suddenly Eric grabbed Yongun’s hands and stopped her, he looked at her with a deep gaze. “Yongsun-ah, don’t be too tough on yourself, my heart will break.”

Yongsun immediately broke her hands free from his, she gestured with her hands at her chest, showing him that she was about to puke from his words. Eric stood up and laugh. “How’s that? Are you touched?”

“I didn’t have an appetite initially, now I feel like I’m not going to eat for days.” She screamed at him.

“That’s good, you should go on a diet. You seemed fatter on screen nowadays”

“EXCUSE ME?”

“Excuse you. What are you doing tomorrow? Do you have anything on?” He asked.

“No, do I?”

“Official schedules, no.” He winked.

“I don’t have anything on personally tomorrow too, what’s up?”

“Good! The acting teacher for the trainees can’t make it tomorrow suddenly. If you could, please give some pointers and advices to the kids tomorrow. It’s only a 2 hours thing in the noon.”

“Aren’t they training to be idols?”

“The music industry nowadays is very demanding. Not only you have to know how to sing, dance, compose and song writing, having to learn how to act is also an essential. Anyway the company just wants to open up more opportunities for them. If they’re not suitable to be idols they can be actors as well.” He explained.

That was true, Yongsun could only act. That’s why she’s been stuck in the acting industry for a couple of years. Not that she’s complaining either, her interests as of now is only in acting.

Yongsun woke up at 8 am the next day, she woke Yonghye up as well and asked her to return to their hometown to visit their sick mother, at the same time passing her next month’s medical bills and living expenses. With that, she had barely enough for herself. Yongsun’s father passed away quite some time ago, her Mom was diagnosed with kidney disease 2 years ago, and she’s currently on dialysis treatment. Yongsun had always wanted to get a kidney transplant for her, but due to her Mom having other sickness as well, there was risk in the surgery, and thus it was being dragged on.

At 12 pm, Yongsun was in the practice
