“I’m sorry Mr. Song, I can’t handle this one. Can you give
me another one?” I asked Mr. Song.

As much as possible, I want to run away from him, I know
I’m such a loser for doing that, but I can’t think of anything else.

“ Yes of course” he agreed to my request and handed me another folder.

I went through the papers and immediately looked for the
page where it would say their endorser.

I got shocked again, for it was still him.

“ah! How many else are still there?” I asked him again.

“there’s only one left” he said and handed me the folder.

I directly opened it to that same page number, and there, I
proved to myself that I was doomed! It was him again.

“why is he endorsing all of these products?! Is Korea
having a scarcity of much more talented artist?!” I yelled
at him. I don’t know but I got really angry! How can that
happen to me? Why is he everywhere?

Mr. Song got surprised with my reaction.

“Ms. Hwang, he is the most popular artist today, it’s no
surprise that companies wanted him to endorse their
product.” He explained to me.

“what?! It’s not valid!!” this time, I got really, really
angry. (for no other reason besides him)

“Ms. Hwang, is there a problem with Mr. Lee being the
endorser? If you want, we could cancel our contract with
them” He suggested.

He actually woke me up with those words!

I suddenly remembered my principle. “Separate personal
matters with business matters”

HA! That guy is breaking everything in me, and of course,
I won’t allow that to happen.

“ No! I’ll work with it. Do I need to work on those three
endorsements?” I asked him, back to my calm, usual self.

“Yes ma’am.” He answered me politely.

“okay” I said.

“there will be a meeting at 2pm for the concept of the
commercial together with the company’s representative and
the artist” he informed me.

“okay. Thank you very much” I said.

He then slowly left the room.

“AHHHHHHH!” that was all I could say that time.

I sat back to my chair. Trying to think about what will
happen later.

I tried it so many times, but I still can’t come up of
possible events!

I checked the time, it was 10 am. I still had 4 hours to
prepare for the battle field.

I immediately called Sulli to ask for help. She agreed that
we’d meet at Soshi café, so I immediately went out of my
office.

As I arrive there, I saw Sulli waiting for me. I rushed
myself to her and sat beside her.

“what’s the emergency all about?” she asked me.

“I’m gonna meet Donghae later”

“really? That’s great! Another opportunity for both of
you” she teased me

“come on, it’s an agony on my side” I told her.

“why?”

“last night…” and there, I told her everything that had
happened last night. And guess what? She actually hit me.

“ow!! That hurts!” I said.

“yah! You’re really an IDIOT!!! How could you do that to
him? Huh?! He, who has a very good intention?!”
she scolded me.

“ Come on Sulli, whose side are you taking?”

“You, but because of that, I’ll take his side!”

“ Please don’t add up my problem” I told her coldly.

“AISH! Alright, I’ll help you think of a way..”

“really?”

“of course! I’m still on your side anyways.”

I smiled at her and hugged her out of happiness.

“okay, what about, you send a person to represent you in the meeting?” she suggested.

“No, that’s not a good one, my dad will surely kill me”

“Hmm, ah! Why don’t you just pretend to be cool, as if nothing happened?”

“how can I do that?”

“yah, I still remembered the days when you won the best
actress in our school play fest” she said.

And there, I remembered that I actually was an actress. Sulli really helped me a lot.

I smiled at her and told her that’s a great idea..

Time flew so fast and when I checked my watch, it was already 1.30pm..

I went immediately in the conference room where our meeting will be held.

My secretary handed me the papers needed and I nervously waited for everyone to arrive.

After a few minutes, the representative of Everbest came.

We shook hands and then I led her to her seat.

I then went back to my seat, but then before I could place my on the chair, a man entered.

I stood up again and politely shook hands with him, then out of nowhere, Donghae came.

And because I was really professional, I went near him and offered my hand to him.

I can see it right through his face that he was shocked.

I waited for him to receive my hand, until finally, the guy with him poked him. We shook hands and he sat near me.

The entire meeting was an agony. Every now and then I could feel his gaze.

Once in a while I look at him, and I can see him looking at me.

I ignored him as much as I could, but I just couldn’t stop it.

I shivered all throughout the meeting. A lot of sweat came out of my body. Every now and then I wipe my sweat until finally, I couldn’t hold it anymore.

I excused myself out of the meeting to go to the comfort room.

And when I was a little away from the conference room, I got shocked.

A hand held my arm, and I stopped walking.

And as I look back, I realized that it was him..

He held me arm and smiled brightly at me.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
