Chapter 19

#FRIEND-ZONE

"Aish, remember not to ruin my outfit again." Sooyoung said as she walked out of Jaejoong's office

"You're leaving?" Yuri stood up as she bowed 

"You don't have to be so formal. We're friends. Anyway, are you free for lunch today?" Sooyoung said 

"No plans, but I brought lunch." Yuri said 

"Okay, I want to bring you somewhere. Make yourself free. See you." Sooyoung said as she walked off

"Sooyoung-ssi, Sooyoung-ssi." Yuri shouted as she watched Sooyoung walked off 

"Why?" Jaejoong came out of his office. 

"Ah, Sooyoung just invited me for lunch?" Yuri said 

"Ok great." Jaejoong said as he smiled and walked off to his office 

While Yuri was doing her work, her phone starting buzzing. Yuri just ignored, she was too busy completing her work to check her surrounding. Suddenly someone walked towards her table. It was Woobin 

"You're not going to answer that? It seems important." Woobin said

"Oh Mr Kim-ssi." Yuri stood up and bowed 

"Don't have to be so formal, we know one another don't we?" Woobin winked 

"Hyung." Jaejoong stood outside his office as he saw Woobin and Yuri. 

"Jaejoong-ah, just the person I was looking for." Woobin turned to Jaejoong's direction

"What do you want? Do you mind not bothering my workers?" Jaejoong said sternly 

"Wow, so protective. Let's talk in the office." Woobin said as he walked into Jaejoong's office uninvited

"Yuri, are you okay?" Jaejoong checked on Yuri who was just watching. 

"Yeah I'm fine, just go in and talk to your brother, must be important." Yuri smiled 

"Alright." Jaejoong sighed as he walked into his office 

Yuri then sighed, and sat on her chair, she was too distracted, and checked her phone, to see that she has missed calls and text messages from Yunho. She then called Yunho. 

"Why?" Yuri said

"What a way to greet your best friend." Yunho said 

"Sorry, I'm busy. Why did you call?" Yuri asked 

"Ah, I wanna ask you out for lunch, I'm so sick of the cafeteria food here. Let's go to our favorite restaurant nearby?" Yunho said

"I'd love to but I can't." Yuri said 

"Why? Do you have a date with Mr Boss? You've been spending way too many times with him, don't you think?" Yunho asked 

"Oh my god! Are you jealous Jung Yunho?" Yuri said as she laughed

"No I'm not, why would I be? Then are you free for dinner?" Yunho quickly avoided the question

"I can't. Boa unnie is back, we're having dinner together. The next day alright?" Yuri laughed as she hung up. 

"Hello? Yuri?" Yunho said 

"Eh, she hung up on me?" Yunho said to himself as he looked at his phone. 

"Jung Yunho, get back to work." Tiffany shouted across the office, causing the rest to laugh 

Jaejoong's Office 

"Why are you here?" Jaejoong asked as he looked at Woobin  

"Can't the big brother come and visit his little brother?" Woobin said 

"Knowing you, there's definitely a motive. What's the real reason here?" Jaejoong said 

Woobin got up and threw the file onto the table towards Jaejoong. It was about closing down Jaejoong's mum shop.

"I'll cut to it, we're going through with it. Whether you like it or not. Look at the bright side, it'll bring us more business, which will make us happy, now won't mum want us to be happy." Woobin smirked as he wore his sunglasses and walked out 

As Woobin walked out and closed the door, Jaejoong took the file and with rage, threw it onto the floor. 

"Woah woah, chill. The cleaner lady is not gonna be happy seeing this." Yuri walked in, trying to lighten the mood. 

"I just don't get Woobin & my dad. They're driving me insane." Jaejoong sat on his chair 

"I think your mum doesn't want you to fight with your brother and dad." Yuri said as she picked up the files off the floor. 

"Then what, you want me to continue with the plan?" Jaejoong said 

"Maybe try suggesting something else?" Yuri said as she walked over 

"Like? I'm too angry to think." Jaejoong whined as he slouched on his chair.

"Remember, you got to fight for what your mum has been working for." Yuri said as she placed the file onto Jaejoong's desk. 

"I'm 100% sure they won't be on board with it, they have doubts with me running this department, let alone let me suggest something in the business?" Jaejoong looked at Yuri 

"You never know if you never try?" Yuri said as she walked off 

"Also, you've got an assistant with tons of experiences working with this company. I might be able to help." Yuri said as she walked out of the office 

"Are you saying you'll help me?" Jaejoong ran towards the door, and stood outside looking at Yuri 

"Do I have a choice?" Yuri said as she walked into the office

"Of course you'll help me." Jaejoong smiled 

"Here, you have a lunch meeting with the directors. Mr Song is waiting for you downstairs." Yuri passed Jaejoong his coat as well as his briefcase. 

"What would I do without you." Jaejoong grabbed his stuff and smiled at Yuri 

"Just go." Yuri shook her head and sat on her seat. 

"See you." Jaejoong smiled as he walked towards the lift.

When the lift door opened, Yunho was standing in there. 

"Mr Jaejoong-ssi" Yunho bowed

"Yunho-ssi" Jaejoong greeted as he walked in and watched Yunho get out of the lift 

"Aish what is he doing here? Sooyoung better come here quick." Jaejoong said to himself as he took out his phone 

In the Office

"Yah, what are you doing here?" Yuri asked as she saw Yunho waving and happily walking towards him 

"Lunch, the boss went out, so you're probably free." Yunho said  

"I'm busy right now, and you can't be here." Yuri said as Yunho ignored and walked around the office 

"Yah, just stop being a workaholic, and eat with me, at the nearby restaurant." Yunho said as he sat on Yuri's table 

 "Then go eat." Yuri said as she was trying to do her work.

 "Ah hurry, by the time we go there, we'll be too late. And I hate to rush when I eat." Yunho whined 

"Then eat at the cafeteria, it's nearer, and you for sure won't have to rush." Yuri said as she got up

The lift sound dinged and it was Sooyoung who walked out of the lift. 

"Yuri-ah, let's go." Sooyoung said as she saw Yunho and Yuri talking 

"Yah, I have to go. And here, you don't like cafeteria food, I brought food from home." Yuri said as she passed Yunho her food

"Eh?" Yunho who seemed confused

"Yah, quickly get out of the office alright." Yuri said as she got her bag as well as her coat, and walked towards Sooyoung
