Junsu’s POV

It was late and Ri In still hasn’t come home yet. I was waiting for her from seven o’clock and now it’s twelve o’clock. I thought and thought about it again and again until I came to a conclusion that Ri In must be with Hang Kyung. So she was the one who was having the affair! I stomped up angrily to my room. I climbed into the bed and slept.

The next morning…

Ri In’s POV

Han Geng helped me home today. I wanted to bet home early because I didn’t like the smell of the hospital. We arrived at the front of my house with Han Geng behind me, carrying all my things. I fumbled with the keys and inserted them into the door. I twisted the keys until I heard a click. I opened the door and walked in. To my surprise, I was faced face-to-face with Junsu. He made me jumped. He stared at me with those icy cold eyes.

“Junsu-shii, why are you here?” I asked. Instead of replying me, he tilted his head to my right and saw Han Geng.

“Why is he here?” Junsu asked.

“Because he is helping me home,” I explained.

“Why?” he asked.

“Because I was discharged out of the hospital yesterday,” I told him.

“Get out,” he said. I thought he was referring to me but he was looking at Han Geng. Han Geng reluctantly walked out of the house, leaving Junsu staring at me.

“Why were you in the hospital?” he asked.

“Because I had to remove the plaster,” I replied.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” he asked.

“Because I tried calling you but you cut the line,” I explained. He was about to open his mouth and retort but was cut off by the doorbell. I turned back and opened the door. To my surprise, that person was Junsu’s Appa.

“Annyonghaseyo, Appa and Omma,” Junsu and I said at the same time to Junsu’s parents. Someone came behind Omma and Appa.

“Ri In! How are you!? Oh and if you haven’t known yet, this is Junsu’s older brother, Junho,” Omma introduced me to Junho.

“Hello, Junho. I am Jang Ri In. Nice to meet you,” I introduced myself personally to him.

“Nice to meet you too. I am Junho, as you know,” Junho said and flashed a smile.

“Well, are you going to let us in?” asked Omma.

“Oh, mianhe, come in,” I apologised and lead them into the house. While I was trailing behind them with Junsu, he whispered:

“Cooperate with me like we did at our honeymoon, araso?” he ordered me more than ask. I nodded my head slowly.

“Good,” he said then walked off a head of me, talking to our parents and Junho. We all walked to the lounge room. Once we were settled, I walked up to get some tea for them.

“No, dear, we’re fine. Stay here. We want to talk to you about some things,” Omma said. I obediently sat down next to Junsu.

“Ri In, is Junsu treating you well?” asked Appa. I looked at Junsu. He glared back at me.

“Y-yes, h-he is treating m-me very well,” I replied.

“Good. Treat her well Junsu or else you don’t know what will happen to you,” Omma warned playfully. We all laughed. I laughed out nervously. Once we all calmed down, Appa faced me seriously.

“Ri In, I want you to work at our company as a manager, one level lower than Junsu,” Appa announced. I was shocked. Me? A manager? How is this possible?

“So, what’s the answer?” Appa asked. I looked at Appa uncertainly. I thought about it for a while. Will I be able to hold such a position?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Junsu’s POV

She was going to work at our company? But Taeyeon works there. What happens if Ri In tells Omma and Appa once she sees us? I looked at Ri In and she was thinking. She was sure capable of handling her job. She has been studying hard at business. She will be capable but if she agrees then that means my secret will be exposed. Ri In turned around to look at me and was trying to read my expression. Through my eyes, I was trying to tell her to not agree but I guess she didn’t understand since she wore a confused face.

“Yes,” she answered. No! She has said yes.

“So, you have to sign this contract. I need your signature saying that your position is legal,” Appa said. No way! If she signs it, it will be valid. Even if it is something randomly made up, it will be valid. Ri In took the pen out of Appa’s hand and was about to sign it when I stopped her.

“Junsu?” she asked.

“I am t-thirsty; can you get tea for me? The contract can be signed anytime,” I said.

“Oh, okay,” she said and was about to walk off when Omma stopped her.

“Junsu, if you are thirsty, then you can get it yourself. Let Ri In sign the contract,” Omma convinced Ri In while smirking. I guess she could tell that I didn’t want Ri In to sign the contract. Damn! It’s sometimes a disadvantage when you have a very observant mother.

“Oh, OK,” I reluctantly agreed and left the room.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ri In’s POV

After Junsu left, I proceeded with signing the contract. I swiftly swiped the pen over the paper and the contract was sealed. Appa was grinning widely. I guess he was very happy. Junsu suddenly came in. I saw his face dropped when he saw that I had signed the contract. Did he really hate me that much?

“I am going upstairs,” he murmured and left the room.

“Don’t worry about him,” Junho said. I smiled back in response.

“How about we go get some clothes?” Junho asked. I looked at him weirdly. If he likes shopping then is he…no, no. I shook my head at my thought.

“No! No, no, no! I am not gay! I am just a fashion designer!” he clarified.

“Oh,” I said and nodded my head. Phew! He wasn’t gay.

“Well, let’s get going!” he declared. Before I could react, Junho pulled me out of the house and we were off to the mall.

At the mall, we brought plenty of things. I got exhausted after a couple of hours but Junho still had lot’s energy in him! He kept dragging me everywhere! After the day, I flipped onto my bed and slept early since I will be starting work tomorrow. Monday; another typical day. But how was I going to handle the position of manager at such an age? I am only, like, eighteen. I sighed. This job is going to be hard!
