Toronto, Canada

Kang Seulgi walked to the living room with a big smile flashed on his face reading something on his phone. His best friend, Son Seungwan, stares at him while drinking coffee from his mug then focuses on watching a basketball match again. Seulgi sit on the couch beside Seungwan and put his phone on the table

“What with that smile?” Seungwan nudging Seulgi arm

“Receive sweet text from Joohyun like usual” Seulgi wiggle his eyebrows

“Baechu that you meet on dating apps?”

“Yup, my pretty Baechu”

“It has been several months since both of you know each other and dating. She never asks you to meet her at all?”

“She does but I said I’m still busy so we will meet before Christmas”

“If I on her place, I will have lot of doubt because never meet my couple in person”

“I don’t know if she ever doubting me” Seulgi shrugs

Seungwan asked again “Em, what about you is the son of her boss, did she know?”

Seulgi shake his head “Nope”

“How will she react if she knows that you’re the next CEO of KS Group?” Seungwan tapping his chin

Seulgi sighs softly “I hope she is not really hard to deal with. I still thinking how I should open up to her”

“Aigoo, you're also weird. Why you not just tell her that you're the son of Kang Siwon and Kwon Yuri?”

“Wan, I told you that I don’t want a girl that loves me just for my money. You see, a lot of girls after me because they know my status. They don't really love me for who I am. I don’t want that to happen”

“What if Joohyun also same as other girl who run after your money?”

“No, Joohyun is different. If she wants a rich man, she will not accept me when I told her that I work as a barista. I believe in her. She is a good woman” Seulgi said confidently

“Okay if you say so. I also hope she is not materialistic. From her face and the way she talk with you, I know that she is a decent woman”

“I know right” Seulgi grinned “Hey, do you book our flight ticket already?”

“Yup, we will depart this Saturday so you can pack your stuff on Thursday”

Seulgi turned his face to Seungwan “Yah, why so early?”

“To avoid you, forget this and that. You don’t want to return here just to get your PS5 or your MacBook, don’t you?”

“Okay” Seulgi nods his head

Seoul, South Korea

“Unnie, good morning” Irene greeted by the internship student at her department

“Good morning, Yerimie” she pats Yerim head softly

“Unnie, have you had breakfast already?”

“I just drink a glass of milk at home”

“Let’s go to a café. It still early before office hour” said Yerim

“Sounds good. I will invite Yongsun and Eunbi just in case they not eating yet”

“Alright, I will call Seungyeon unnie”

“Okay”

Five girls gather at the café near their office. It is a regular café for staff at KS since it is located next to their office building. The café is big and serve lot of delicious foods

“I heard from Moonbyul, the heir of KS Group will arrive in South Korea next week” said Yongsun or her friends call her Solar. Her boyfriend working as general manager at KS Group

“Can’t wait to see our future boss. He must be young and handsome” Seungyeon chirped

“His identity is hidden well from the public. I never hear our senior talk about him” said Irene

“You two also never see him, unnie?” Yerim looking at Solar and Irene

“Yup, in our department only Manager Lee used to meet him during their meeting in Canada. President Kang and his wife hiding their son”

“Why do they need to hide his identity?” Eunbi curious

Solar says “Maybe for privacy or safety reasons. He is their only son so they must want the best for him. Their older and younger daughter are introduced early than their son so I think they have reason why they not introduce him early”

“You’re right”

Incheon Airport

“It has been a while since we breathe Korea air” idiot smile plastered on Seulgi face

“Yeah, since your dad sent us to run his business in Canada and we are not allowed to come back for two years,” said Seungwan as he walked beside Seulgi and pushed his cart. Seulgi also pushing the cart that fill with his suitcases and bags also some paper bags

“Hm, we make it within two years and now the business is in peak”

“That’s mean we’re genius” Seungwan said then both of them cackle

“Can’t wait to start working”

Seungwan cleared his throat “Don’t forget Irene noona. Remember that you must explain to her the truth. You will not able to hide it too long because you will start working under the same roof with her”

“I am still thinking about what I must say to her. I will tell her the truth as soon as possible”

“Yeah, you should do it sooner. It would not be nice if she found out the truth herself. You will get into trouble”

“Yea~”

A familiar figure holler as both of them walk out of the main entrance “Oppa~”

“Yah, Kang Sooyoung!” Seulgi open his arms widely as he welcome his younger sister to his embrace

“Oppa, welcome back” Kang Sooyoung or Joy, hugging her brother tightly

“I miss you so much, my baby” Seulgi pepper Joy face with kisses

“Oppa, I’m not a kid anymore” Joy whining as she embrace because her brother still treat her like a toddler

“You still my baby girl” Seulgi playfully pinching Joy cheek

Then Joy turn to Seungwan “Seungwan oppa, welcome back”

“Aigoo, you’re grown up now” Seungwan pats Joy head

“Oppa, I’m a big girl now. Stop treating me like a baby. We just met few months ago so don’t exaggerate things”

“You still a baby to us” said Seulgi

“True” Seungwan agree

“Let’s go before you two tease me more” Joy led them to the parking lot where she parked her car

“You come alone?” Seulgi asking after put his luggage and bags inside the car trunk

Joy innocently answer “Last time I check, I come alone”

Seulgi pinch his sister arm “Aigoo”

Joy laughing heartily “Other members are busy so I come alone. Eomma wanted to come together but suddenly her assistant called saying that they have a new client that needs their catering service for a big function. Don’t ask about appa and unnie, those people are very busy even on Saturday”

“Alright, I got it”

Seungwan joined the siblings “Shall we go now?”

“Yes sure”
