No way!
My Boss is a (On Hiatus)
[GottaLoveEm: Here's another chapter! It totally didn't just take me forever to update! Sorry for the more-than-a-month-long wait... Finally Yun is back, even though her trip was cut short and she brought her insane new friend with her! Let's just say Spencer was easily convinced to let her tag along, okay? XD]
_______________________________________________________________
*Your POV*
I sighed. I leave tomorrow. All because apparently Mi Sun convinced her dad that she needs me urgently. Better be something worthwhile.
"Alyss, are you sure you got everything packed and ready to go?" I asked loudly, since she was down the hall. I heard her yell yes back, and decided this was enough. Whatever happens to her, happens. I was really looking forward to going back to my friends over there, though, so it wasn't total crap.
Lately, Taemin-oppa had been sending me tons of emails, ordering me around and making me buy him just about everything.
*Dork... I'm almost back and you're making me waste my money on you NOW?* I smirked, this time he wanted chocolate. I already had some, so I stuck it in the fridge to get later. Ever since I received the email from Onew-ssi, I had been staying at Alyss's place. I didn't have many things, so it was easy to pack them. Sun Hee was the same, so we just had to say goodbye to the landlord who had been so kind to us, and wait with Alyss for the day of our flight. Although we only had two tickets, Alyss had said she wanted to go, too, and that she had the money to buy her own ticket. Then, we talked about it with Spencer, saying she could move in with me, and we would translate everything for her, even teach her how to speak in Korean. After a few hours of convincing, he agreed. And thats why I had been waiting here, in the dead of the night, for Alyss to make sure everything was set for tomorrow.
Finally, it was time to go to bed. A second after I thought this, I collapsed and just stared at the ceiling. Tomorrow, I returned. Tomorrow, I would get to see the people who mean so much to me again.

I groaned. Someone falling on you and not letting you breathe was never a good way to wake up. However, even though she was the one who fell, Sun Hee still didn't wake up. I looked at the clock, and it read 5:00 AM. I sighed. I better start getting ready anyways, I can't go back to sleep after that. I took a shower, made breakfast, and woke up both Alyss, and Sun Hee, so they could hurry up too, since now there were just two hours and a half left. So, when we finished, Spencer drove us to the airport, and there, Sun Hee and I waved goodbye while Alyss and Spencer hugged.
"Take care, you guys! Email me often, okay, Alyss?," we heard Spencer call to us as we walked away. I waved once more, and then turned back.
Finally, when we got to our seats, I laid my head back and started daydreaming. I watched the clouds, and made out faces and figures. There was a Taemin-oppa cloud, a chicken cloud, and surely enough, I laughed, an Onew-ssi cloud that looked ready to take a bite out of the chicken cloud. How cute, there was a Jonghyun-ssi cloud that looked like it was waving, welcoming me home. I laughed, really, I'm going crazy...
Next thing I knew, I was being woken up by Alyss, who told me we were arriving soon. I stretched happily in my seat, and nodded. I can't wait, I can't wait....
So, after our plane landed, and we were being led out, as we were walking to the entrance to take a taxi home, I heard a beautiful sound.
It was a chorus of "YUN-AH!!!!", and I saw the group of boys I had missed coming towards me. There was all of SHINee, the twins, and most of B1A4. I say most, because sadly, CNU-oppa wasn't here. Again. Each and every one of them hugged me, but when Jonghyun-ssi hugged me, it was like he was clinging onto me for dear life.
"FINALLY! You can help us get our sleep back! I've missed slee.... Er... You for so long!," he yelled happily. I laughed, and when he finally pulled away, I smiled.
"Don't worry, you guys, I'll scare 'em off!," I assured the other SHINee group members. Taemin-oppa smiled widely, holding his hands out. I looked at them oddly for a moment, then realised he was waiting for his many gifts. Laughing, I handed him a bag.
"Sorry, I think the chocolate melted, but if you put it in the freezer, it'll be fine. Also, you guys, this is my friend Alyss, from America. Be nice to her, okay?," I said, introducing the shy Alyss who was hiding behind me. Taemin-oppa noticed her hiding, and decided to sneak around and scare her by putting a hand on her shoulder when she wasn't looking. When she felt it, she started screaming and jumped into the air a bit, making Taemin-oppa double over, laughing. I laughed a bit, too. *Sorry Alyss, looks like you're going to be his new toy from now on hahaha*
Onew-ssi was right, Kwangmin had cut his hair. I walked over to him, hearing Alyss whimper because she was scared of Taemin-oppa, but I laughed and walked over to him faster.
As soon as I reached him, I ruffled his hair, and he tried to swat my hand away, laughing.
"Aigoo, did all this really happen while I was gone?," I asked, and he nodded. As he told me about how school was going, every once in a while, I would look around, hoping to find CNU-oppa suddenly running in, with a smile on his face. Right now, I missed him more than anything.
"Yun, you need to tell us how America was! Were there cute girls there?," Youngmin asked with a wink, and I couldn't help but laugh a bit. Jonghyun-ssi and the others walked over, seemingly interested in the topic, and I laughed harder when I noticed even Taemin-oppa had stopped picking on Alyss to listen to what we were talking about.
"There was certainly some...unique people there. But... I dunno, I guess SOME were pretty, but seemed the type to most likely get pregnant, get an abortion, then try to get pregnant again. Also the type to fight in gangs and pull knives on people, but after joining their gang, they weren't so mean to me, they even introduced me to a pimp," I managed to say with a straight face.
Everyone's jaw dropped, and they looked at me weirdly, but after about three seconds, I cracked a smile and started laughing.
"I was kidding! Yeah, I was in a somewhat ghetto school, but it wasn't to THAT point! So, where's Mi Sun?," I asked, and I saw Gongchan-oppa exchange a smirk with Baro-oppa.
"She got hit by a car, serves her right," they both informed me. I expected someone to say 'Psh, we wish', but everybody else was also smiling. I gasped, and Sun Hee doubled over laughing.
"Seriously?!," I yelled, and they all nodded.
*CNU's POV*
I was running as fast as I could. Aish, really. I had spent too much time trying to think of what I was planning to wear that I hadn't noticed everybody else leave. Now I was sticky with sweat, there went all my effort to look good in front of Yun-ah. But I had finally arrived. After a few minutes of searching, I saw Yun-ah smiling, then sneaking a look around. However, she sighed and walked off somewhere, not seeming to have found what she was looking for. So, off I went to look for her. When I found her, she looked up just in time and gasped. I smiled so widely it felt like my face was about to split in two, and ran to her, enveloping her into a big hug, and spining her around.
Unfortunately, my greeting was cut short when she pushed me off her and slapped me, hard, across the face. I gasped and clutched my cheek, looking at her in shock. Her face was red, twisted with rage, and her hands were clenched into fists, knuckles white. I have never seen her look scarier.
"...Y-Yun-ah?," I whispered, confused as to why she hit me, although I had a hunch it was because I didn't stay in touch very much. I saw her eyes starting to water, and she dropped to the floor. I kneeled next to her and gently placed my hand on her shoulder.
"I'm sorry... I'm really sorry I didn't email you very often. Sorry sorry sorry sorry," I murmured, rubbing my hands together like in the Sorry Sorry music video, attempting to make her laugh, and only half succeeding. It hurt me to see her smile, because I knew I couldn't be with her. I have a fiancee now, and no matter how much I hate her, I couldn't bring myself to get romantically involved with anybody else, it would cause trouble for everyone.
Especially if it was someone that much younger than me. At least Mi Sun was closer to my age.
Speaking of her, she was calling me. I stopped all I was doing and answered, leaving Yun-ah to herself once more.
"What's up?," I asked, and immediately, Mi Sun burst into nonstop chatter. I tried listening, but at this point it was hard to understand what she was saying. I did catch a bit, where she asked me to go visit her in her hospital room, and to bring her some snacks, and to bring Yun-ah.
"Sure thing. Anything else? Something to keep you entertained? It must be pretty boring to have to be in the hospital until your leg heals. Getting run over by a truck must have hurt a ton," I offered, and she sighed and agreed. This is weird. We're getting along. Ever since she found out I was her fiancee, she started actually talking to me and getting to know me. I don't mind, but it was such a sudden change of pace that it kind of freaks me out.
"I'm on my way then," I said right before hanging up. I walked back to Yun-ah, who was sitting, dumbfounded, on the floor, staring off into space.
"Who was that?," she asked from her spot on the floor. I shrugged and helped her up, then grabbed her stuff and told everyone we had to go somewhere.
When we got into the car, she shook off my hold on her wrist and looked me in the eye.
"Where are we going? Why did we have to leave so suddenly?," she continued with the questions.
"Were going to go see Mi Sun. Satisfied?," I asked her, starting to get tired of all the questions. She sighed then turned to look out the window. After we arrived, she was still quiet and moody, so I didn't say anything to her as we made our way inside, to Mi Sun's room.
Slowly, but surely, a smile spread on Yun-ah's face.
"So, why am I here?," she asked, and Mi Sun looked at the ceiling blankly, then started speaking softly.
"I need you to take my place. I need you to sing instead of me. The truck fixed my brain, and made me realize, I can't sing. At all. I sound like a strangled rooster. So, my dad decided to make you take my place. It's not like I approve entirely, but whatever. My 'I'm sorry for always having being a pain in the ' apology gift. Make sure to treasure it, arasso?," Mi Sun had said.
*Your POV*
*No way.... No FREAKING way!!! Holy CRAP, what happened to Mi Sun that she's being so nice?! Letting me sing in her place?!!? That's always been my greatest dream... But something feels off.*
I dropped to the floor, knees giving in from the sudden news.
"Yun-ah? Are you okay?," CNU-oppa asked nervously, seeing me on the floor with my gaze lowered. I was shaking from the happiness, and tears had welled up in my eyes.
"Mi Sun... Thank you. So much... But... Why are you being so nice?," I barely managed to say. I heard her laugh, and when I looked up, she was smiling at me in a motherly way.
"Because I realized I've been a terrible person," she replied in that same soft voice.
"R-Really?," I asked as the smile on my face grew wider, but as it did, I noticed the mocking expression forming on Mi Sun's face.
"My , it was my dad's idea, why the hell would I want you to take my place? Honestly, you're so foolish. Anyways, I have a performance in two weeks, so since you're taking my place, you'll be attending in my place, and will hopefully have tomatoes thrown at you. All you're going to be doing in singing, along with other artists. So make sure to screw up so I look like the talented one," Mi Sun bluntly stated, back to her old self. Frankly, I'm too happy to be pissed right now, even though she wasn't actually being nice, telling me to fail and all.
CNU-oppa cleared his throat and when I looked at him, he motioned towards the door, where a nurse was currently standing by, glaring at us.
"Visiting hours are over," the nurse said in an irritated voice. I shrugged and walked out with CNU-oppa, and the whole ride back home, I couldn't stop smiling. When we were at the corner of the street, I noticed my lights were on.
I walked inside, ready to throw a punch or two, but instantly calmed down. It was just Taemin-oppa and Jinyoung-oppa, so my smile returned.
"Wipe that grin off your face, it's creeping me out. First you look like you're about to punch us, now you look like a crazy that's about to steal my innocence..." Taemin-oppa said loudly, making my jaw drop at how simply he was saying I grossed him out.
"Whatever. Anyways, where's Alyss? I have some big news that I wanna tell her," I asked him while he continued to make repulsed faces and pretend to be shivering.
"She fell asleep waiting for you, so tell us instead," Jinyoung-oppa said, inching closer to me, eyes wide, waiting for the gossip.
"Calm down, halmeoni. I'll tell everybody when she wakes up," I countered, and Jinyoung's face turned beet-red and he backed away a bit, ashamed.
*I think I'll just call him that from now on...*
After about thirty minutes of everybody settling down and watching TV, I finally heard Alyss's soft footsteps coming in our direction.
"Oh, you're here now... What took you so long?," she grumbled, still half asleep, and collapsed face first into the only space on the couch left, which was basically just the armrest, where Taemin-oppa's arm had just been, until he stood up to get a drink.
"I'm singing at a concert in Mi Sun's place in two weeks," I told her, smiling.
"Oh, congratula--....... YOU'RE WHAT?!?!?," she yelled out, shooting up from her awkward position on the couch. As soon as I said that, I heard something shattering in the kitchen, and Taemin-oppa walked out with his hand bleeding a bit.
"Huh. I could have sworn I just heard you say you're singing at a concert instead of Mi Sun..." he said, still staring at his hand like if he didn't know what to do about the blood.
"I did."
"....... Oh.... OH!! OH MY GOD! CONGRATULATIONS!!," he started yelling out along with Alyss, who had been spazzing and flailing her arms in the air.
I couldn't help but smile even wider, my friends were being such dorks. But... Where did CNU-oppa and Jinyoung-oppa go? I stood up and left them there, stunned, to go look for them.
"....don't know how to help you... You're screwed man, you should have confessed to her back when you had the chance. Now you're engaged? What bad luck..." I heard Jinyoung-oppa's voice say from the other side of the front door.
*What's going on...?*
"I don't want to confess to Yun-ah anymore, I'm engaged to her boss, that'd just put me in a hell of an awkward position. Especially if she says no," CNU-oppa's voice said.
*Confess to...me? Engaged to... Mi Sun?.... Ew. Engaged to Mi Sun.*
"Yeah, well, we better head back inside, it's getting cold...," Jinyoung-oppa muttered, and a second later, not giving me enough time to run away, the door opened and I was face-to-face with CNU-oppa.
As it appears, I'd written two additional chapters, but after those are posted, I do not intend to continue with this.
