Meeting
My NeighborIt had been 4 days since Seulgi last saw Joohyun and Yongsun; Seulgi didn't really have time to properly ask Joohyun out yet, she was too busy.
Seulgi was quietly sitting on her office chair staring at the paper in front of her.
"RESCHEDULE MEETING WITH BAE PRODUCTS"
"They want a rescheduled meeting, Seulgi," Jisoo quietly looked at her copy of the paper before sighing again. "I don't understand why they would cancel a meeting that took over 6 months to plan." Seulgi nodded in agreement as she read the paper agreements again.
"Alright, you'll just go to the meeting then. The matter seems irrelevant to me right now, they're losing a lot of money right now, shouldn't we be worried?" Jisoo nodded, grabbing another envelope from her folder giving it to Seulgi. Seulgi raised her brow as she looked at the envelope, it looked like a personal envelope.
"What is this?"
"Theres a business party coming up, and its being hosted at some rooftop. It's a party where other people can meet each other and form collabs or something, or maybe just talk- who knows. There's gonna be a bunch of rich people there- CEO's, Idols, politicians maybe?"
"Next week Sunday, right?" Jisoo nodded as she watched Seulgi rip off the envelope case and open the card.
"Yes. There's also a plus one other option, so if you're planning on going and bringing a plus one, please inform me before Friday." Seulgi nodded as she read the paper again. Maybe Joohyun will go?
Meanwhile
Joohyun was quietly working in her office until a knock on the door had startled her, causing her to mess up on her signature. Rolling her eyes slightly annoyed, Joohyun groaned, "come in."
Sooyoung opened the door and quickly closed it behind her. Joohyun took a quick glance at Sooyoung as she was still reading the form previously before Sooyoung entered. "You look happy" the smaller one bluntly stated.
"Well yes, I am. Thank you for noticing unnie, want to hear what I'm happy about?" she smiled. No answer was heard which made Sooyoung grumble. "Of course you're not."
"Anyways, the meeting with Ms. Kim has been rescheduled!!! I mean, after you somehow wanted to stay at home out of all days, it just had to be that day. I even took 6 months to plan that meeting and you just canceled it like that!!!" Joohyun raised her brow, "are you here to rant or actually inform me like a real secretary?"
Sooyoung cleared then apologized. "Anyways, the meeting will be tomorrow at 10:00am in KS building. "I have a feeling that you'd bail out again, so I'm going to take it out of my time to pick your lazy up at 9:00am."
"Wow, Sooyoung. You're a much bigger mom than me!" Joohyun chuckled as she continued to fast read her unfinished papers. "Ugh! Whatever, just be ready when I get there- and look presentable! Wait, why am I even telling you this?" Joohyun shrugged, "because you care about me?" Joohyun then proceeded to laugh loudly at her own joke.
"That isn't funny."
"Well to me it is, deal with it."
"Ugh! I'm leaving now, you better leave too and get some rest.. Oh- and before I leave- there's a business party on Sunday that's hosted every year for business people to meet other business people. A lot of different kinds of people are going there, actually."
"Mhmmmmmmm."
"Tell me if you're going or not. There's also a plus one option if you want to bring anyone with you.. Anyways, I'm leaving now, and you should too. You need to get some rest. Bye, unnie!"
Joohyun nodded in agreement, checking up a few last minute checks before leaving. It was already 5:30pm and Joohyun was let off work a bit earlier than usual by Sooyoung, who isn't even her boss. Joohyun would usually stay in the office for a bit longer, but Sooyoung was right- she did need some rest.
Looking at the mirror, Joohyun looked pale as ever with eye bags. Her makeup even looked worn out, she looked like a pale monster. Joohyun then took another look at her schedule tomorrow. "K..S building?" To her honesty she had no idea what KS building was or where it was located, good thing Sooyoung was going to pick her up.
"Wait a minute, KS? KS Shopping Mall?!" Joohyun finally remembered what meeting was tomorrow. It was about her opening up another store on the other side of KS Shopping Mall. However, they hadn't released any new products in the past few weeks, so sales have been slow and it's making them question whether or not they should let her open up another store.
My memory isn't serving me right nowadays. Joohyun sighed as she grabbed her car keys and headed off to her car.
After about 5 minutes, Joohyun finally spotted her penthouse building. After parking her car, she spotted another car driving towards her. Is that...?
"Oh, hi Joohyun!" Seulgi waved out of her car window, later parking it next to Joohyun's lamborghini. It was kind of sad, really. Seeing a rusted up car next to her new, squeaky clean lamborghini. Seulgi quickly got out of the car and walked towards Joohyun. "Did you just get off of work too?" she smiled.
Joohyun nodded, then walked towards the elevator. Seulgi quietly followed her as if she was a lost puppy. "So, what did you do at work today? You look like ." Joohyun stared at the girl who was trying to start a conversation with her, is she trying to insult me?!
"I just signed papers all day.." Seulgi gasped in amazement. "Also, I didn't know that you were one for swearing-"
"Wow, you seem like a pretty boring CEO." Joohyun then raised her hand at Seulgi in rage and Seulgi covered herself in brace for the slap, but nothing came. A few chuckles were heard from Joohyun who seemed to be laughing at Seulgi (surprisingly.)
"You're laughing?"
"Sorry, that was funny. I know I shouldn't be laughing but I still am," saying that made Joohyun laugh even more at herself. Seulgi widened her eyes as she was extremely confused, but seeing Joohyun laugh made her calm down a bit. It was really cute.
"You should smile more." Seulgi suggested, looking at Joohyun with soft eyes. "Why?"
"It shows your features better." Joohyun stared at the taller, she didn't know whether or not Seulgi was just trying to be flirty or actually saying it because she thought that they actually looked better when she smiled.
"Thanks?" Seulgi smiled, walking into the elevator that had just showed up. Joohyun quickly followed, allowing Seulgi to press the button for floor 40 herself. Joohyun suddenly felt like asking a really random question to Seulgi.
"So Joohyun, go out with me?" Seulgi asked in hopes that the smaller girl would say yes. Joohyun immediately said no making the girl whine. "Why not?"
"I don't want to."
"How many times shall I ask to get a yes?"
"0, because I'll never say yes!" Seulgi just laughed the harsh comment off and kept a smile on. "I'll just keep trying, Joohyun!" Joohyun snarled as she kept her eyes straight towards the door waiting for it to open.
"Joohyun, go out with me!"
"No."
"Joohyun! Please go out with me!" The girl begged 2 seconds later making Joohyun even more annoyed. God when will this elevator open?!
"IRENE! Go out with me!"
"Irene?"
"Yes, Irene. Want to know what it means?" Joohyun had her brow raised as if she was waiting for an answer, making Seulgi smile.
"It means goddess of peace!" Joohyun chuckled, Irene? Her? She is definitely not the goddess of peace. Her life is the complete opposite of peace.
"Wow, I'm soo flattered," Joohyun sarcastically said. "Really?" Seulgi asked happily, as if she didn't get a hint to Joohyun's sarcasticness. "I should call you Irene then!"
"No, please don't."
"Aw.. But Irene suits you- don't you think?" Seulgi tried to wink, but it failed miserably making Joohyun cringe a bit.
"No. Not at all." DING The elevator had finally opened to floor 40, fortunately for Joohyun.
"Now if you excuse me, I have a very important meeting to attend to tomorrow, and I need my sleep." Joohyun quickly dashed to her penthouse not wanting to hear another word from the girl.
"Wait Joohyun! Did you eat dinner yet? Want to go out for dinner? I can drive!" Seulgi exclaimed, constantly annoying the smaller girl. Joohyun didn't listen to one bit of Seulgi's blabbering and just unlocked her door, proceeding to shut it in front of Seulgi's face once she got in.
Seulgi frowned at the sudden slam of the door, feeling down a bit that she got rejected once again.

"UGHHH! Finally, I'm at peace," Joohyun sighed as she dragged her feet off th
