I was grateful that Taehyung brought me all this food. But I still didn't feel hungry, my mind too focused on keeping my guard up at all times, checking my surroundings every few minutes, like I was watching for an unknown predator. I truly felt like a crazy person.

 

I dropped my face into my hands. "Get a hold of yourself Nari. You're surrounded by all the people you work with. Nothing will happen here." I kept telling myself.

 

"Ms. Choi?" Someone asked. I looked up, a young man stood in front of my desk holding a stack of papers.

 

I quickly stood up. "Sorry, I was somewhere else, what do you need ?" I asked him.

 

He gestured to the stack in his hand with his head. "This is all the reports, and forms for the company's annual trip that Mr. Park requested."

 

"Oh, yeah. I must have forgotten about it. Thank you." I took the stack of papers from him. "I'll put them on his desk for him to look over before his next meeting." I said, giving him a polite smile.

 

I had been so caught up with everything else that was going on that I completely forgot, which was very unlike me, seeing as my job requires me to remember things.

 

Letting out a small groan, I walked across the small hallway and opened Mr. Park's door, letting it close behind me as I walked over to his tidy, over organized desk and set them down neatly in the middle.

 

I snuck a peek at the papers, checking the date for the trip. Friday June 25th. I pulled my phone from my pocket, it was Thursday June 24th. I let out another groan. There was no way I would be able to get out of it. Mr. Park would get upset and I really don't want to lose my job.

 

I dialed Taehyung's number and pushed the call button, putting the phone to my ear as I walked back out of the office and back to my own desk, just as I was about to hang up, Taehyung answered out of breath. "Sorry, I was right outside my office talking to a client and didn't have my phone on me, what's up? Is everything alright?" He asked.

 

"Yeah. Everything is fine. I was just calling to give you a heads up, I have to go out of town tomorrow for my company. He does it every year on June 25th and it slipped my mind until one of the employees handed me the paperwork."

 

He stayed quiet for a moment. I could feel that he was trying to decide exactly what he wanted to say so I wouldn't get upset or angry. "Are you sure that's such a great idea?" He asked.

 

"Yeah. He kind of needs me to go anyway, I usually am the one keeping everyone on schedule." I explained. "It will only be for the weekend. I'd be home Sunday evening."

 

Again, silence, followed by a sigh of defeat. "Okay, but only if Jimin can go with you, he can stay in a hotel other than yours. This way if anything were to happen, he would be there in a moment's notice instead of me rushing to you. Plus, it would make me feel better knowing you'll have someone there." He explained.

 

I could understand where he was coming from, he's just worried and concerned about me. I couldn't blame him, I feel like I would be the same way if the roles were reversed, so. I didn't fight him on it. "Okay. As long as he stays unseen I don't mind."

 

"Good. I have to go now, there seems to be a problem downstairs, but I will see you when you get home." He said. "I love you."

 

"I love you too." I hung up the phone and put it into my purse, turning my attention back to the computer, I needed to hurry and get started on the schedule before it was too late and everything turned into a mess.




 

Mr. Park started to walk past my desk but stopped midway, looking at me. "You didn't eat lunch?" He asked.

 

"Huh?" I reluctantly tore my attention from the screen and at him. He was gesturing to the untouched lunch box that Taehyung had brought to me earlier. "Oh. I got busy with other things and I guess it slipped my mind." I said.

 

He shook his head and chuckled. "Well, then I demand you to get your food before you do any more work. Understood?" 

 

I felt my face heat up in embarrassment. "Yes sir. I'll make sure to hurry." I told him.

 

He once again shook his head. "No, take your time. I don't want you to get a stomachache, especially since we have important things to do tomorrow."

 

I nodded

Chapter 21: I have to agree with tae, I don't like her boss either. There's just this feeling that something's off. Not sure if he's the stalker though, but then it may be too simple if it's just minhyun.

Chapter 17: No, no, no. There's no freaking way Minhyun's gonna get to either her or Seunghyun. No way Tae would allow that to happen. Fuuuuuuuuuuuucccc, don't tell me Jungkook's got anything to do with that letter being delivered to Nari at her place of work. I'll be heartbroken if that's the case =(

Chapter 15: I really hope both Nari and Taehyung finds happiness, I feel like they deserve it so much and it's so obvious they still love each other. At one point I wanted her to end up with Jungkook but seeing how perfect she is with Tae I hope they finally can be together.
