“Hello! Good evening! This is The Plumbers, how can I help you?”

“Hi Sir, I need help with my sink.”

“Of course ma’am. May I ask what the problem is with your sink?”

“Err it seems to be clogged.. I tried unclogging it with a plunger… it just gurgled at me!”

“Ahh.. I see. When would you like to have it serviced?”

“… is it possible now?”

“No can do ma’am. We are closing in a few minutes.”

“Oh… how about tomorrow 7am?”

“We actually open 9am.”

“…please? The sludge is scary 🥺”

“Hmm alright.. I’ll have a plumber right over early in the morning.”

“YAY! Thank you so much!”

“Please text us your name, address and contact details.”

“Alright. Thanks again. Have a good night.”

(7 in the morning)

The doorbell rings.

“Coming!”

The door is unlocked and swung open.

“Good mor—…”

“Good morning ma’am! You called to have your sink serviced?”

“Y-yes.” The girl blushed. “Y-you’re the plumber??”

“Yes ma’am! I’m Seulgi The Plumber! :D” the girl grinned widely while raising her wrench.

“Hihihi was that necessary?”

“Ahehe… and you’re Ms. Bae, Irene?”

The plumber did not receive any response. Ms. Bae is lost in her thoughts.

‘OMG! She knows my name!! She must be interested in me!’

“Um Hello? Ms. Bae?”

‘Oh.. She wants my attention.’ Irene squeals internally. “Yes that’s my name! Hihi I can’t believe you know my name.”

“Uhm… you sent us your personal information last night..”

“Oh… hehehe sure.”

“May I come in?”

“OF COURSE!” Irene grabs The Plumber and pulled her inside.

“Which sink needs fixing?”

“My kitchen sink.” Irene points to her kitchen. “I tried everything to unclog it.”

Seulgi walked to the sink and inspects it.

“Nothing worked?”

“Nothing.” Irene bit her lip as she watched the attractive plumber unpack her tools. She grabs a stool and sat, eagerly watching. 

Seulgi tied her hair in a messy bun.

Irene gulps.

The Plumber knelt and opened the sink base cabinet.  She places a small bowl underneath the pipings. She grabs a flashlight and inspects the fixtures.

“You really don’t look like your stereotypical plumber…”

“Because I’m female?”

“No.. Because your crack isn’t showing while you’re bent over.”

Seulgi hit her head on the marble counter. “What? Haha what kind of plumbers do you hire??”

“Hehe it’s true.. Aren’t plumbers suppose to be chubby guys in their 40s with hairy forearms?”

Seulgi just giggles continuing her job.

“You look like Lara Croft if she were a plumber…”

“Haha I’m a plumber not an archaeologist.”

“Well, you-with your tool belt and tank top… just screams Tomb Raider.” Irene leaned forward, shamelessly gawking at The Plumber.

“Ms. Bae I’m The Plumber. Not the Tomb Raider. The only thing I raid are clogged pipes.. And there’s no treasure, just gunk.”

“…you can raid my tomb.” Irene murmurs.

Seulgi snorts as she heard the sly little comment. She tries to focus again, she grabs her wrench and starts unscrewing the pipes.

“Isn’t it hard to remove?”

“Not really, just a little elbow grease and… Ta-da! Home run.”

Liquid starts gushing out of the pipe into the bowl.

“I’ll be done in a bit… just need to thoroughly clear the pipes.”

Irene was very impressed with The Plumber. She leaves her alone to finish her job while she grabs a glass and fills it with juice to offer the girl.

When Seulgi was all done and packing up, Irene offered her a drink.

“Thank you.” She drinks it in one swig. Irene thirstily watched her do so, gulping with her every now and then. Seulgi was just so attractive being all sweaty with her hands still having some grease from the piping.

“That was refreshing. Thanks again.” Seulgi used the sink to wash her hands. When she turned around Irene grabbed her hands and dried it with some kitchen towels.

“Uh… thank you…”

“Hihi you’re welcome. You have beautiful hands!”

“Err… so here’s the bill Ms. Bae.”

Irene grabs her wallet and pays Seulgi for her services.

“Thank you Ms. Bae. Just a few things about your sink, don’t throw any oil down the drain, it builds up after a while. Also I noticed there was a lot of vegetables.. Do throw them in the trash bin. I left you a strainer you can use.”

“Got it :>”

“If I may ask, why was there a lot of vegetables?”
