Chapter 4
Brother's ChoiceWonwoo leaned his back against the lockers and sighed in relief. "Thank god," Wonwoo mumbled, his bag's strap tightly in his grip and made his way out of the library. The library was fully packed as students stayed all day to study, search books for reference and to print their learning materials. Wonwoo hasn't gotten his break since opening as people keep on coming to him, asking for help. Wonwoo is always sincere, helping everyone, especially elderlies when they asked him for a favor. He loved his job but hated when a bunch of girls approached him, giggling, asking for help. Jeon Wonwoo knew that they're only pretending so he forced a smile and walked off, moving onto the next shelf. "Bye, Mrs Lee," Wonwoo waved to the librarian that's taking care of the front desk.
