He’s clearly ignoring me… Shooting the man whose desk was beside his a glare again for countless times today, Jongwoon fixed his glasses before turning back to his computer screen.

He didn’t greet me with a good morning message for days and he didn’t even look at me today, just straight up sticking his eyes to his work, UGH! … Jongwoon typing loudly on his keyboard as he had his angry silent thoughts. He didn’t realize how loud his typing was and it was enough to pull the attention from the desk neighbors around him to look at him, mostly thirsting for gossip to spice up the boring day in the office.

“ Oh, he’s mad again. ” Kyuhyun, the youngest one in the office said with a smirk

“ how do you even tell? He always looked grumpy anyways. ” Hyukjae asked

“ It’s obvious. Look at his cup of coffee. ” The man with yellow tie beside Kyuhyun spoke as he fixed his glasses with confidence

“ Oh no. It’s his third cup today! ” The redhead beside Hyukjae silently gasped 

“ …pure black coffee, no cream, no sugar. ” Kyuhyun told him

“ ...and it’s still not lunch break yet. He’s mad. ” Ryeowook finished his explanation as the two others nodded

“ I wonder who made him upset. I haven’t messed with him yet today. ” Hyukjae whispered to them

“ nah, I wouldn’t mess with him on a bad day either. ” Kyuhyun shrugged as Ryewoook chuckled

“ He’s upset at Siwon. ” The 3 men went closer to him 

“ Sunbae again? What did he do? ”

“ kkk I bet because Siwon is going to be the employee of the month instead of him again? ”

Leeteuk who noticed the kids gossiping decided to step in 

“ YAH YAH get back to work. ” He clicked his tongue as the young employee went back to their seat and pretended like nothing happened. The older was more worried that Jongwoon was going to end these brats one day but it seemed today the red haired man was having his other target, the bigger man beside him.

Jongwoon couldn’t stand being ignored, he looked at his phone again and still didn’t see the greeting message as usual and the younger man also didn’t reply to his greeting.

I know we are hiding our relationship in the workplace to keep our professionalism and to avoid being teased by those brats but does he have to be THAT cold. He didn’t even spare a look at me as usual. Was he mad? I didn’t do anything.

The man looked at Siwon who was fully focusing on his work as he pouted. 

“ ahem— ah! My excel has an error! ” He purposely talked out loud, hoping it would at least make Siwon look at him but instead the other pretended like he didn’t hear anything. Jongwoon was certain he was avoiding him on purpose.

“ Can i help you, Jongwoon-ssi? ” Jongwoon snapped out of his sad thoughts as the handsome assistant manager was standing close to him 

“ Ah, Mr. Kang. Yeah… I have a bit of an issue here. ” Jongwoon pointed to the error that he could easily fix for himself as the man stood real close to him and used his mouse to fix for him proudly.

Although that redhead was a bit distracted by the cold man beside him and he didn’t pay much attention to what Mr. Kang said or did.
