Aish, why did you say that to him? He's still your boss. 
You mentally facepalmed, closing your eyes for a quick second from embarrassment, hoping you could have said something else.
You cupped your hands and rested them on top of your lap, staring at the ground, tapping your right heel.
 How am I going to make this work? He doesn't have resources to help me.
You thought as you began planning of other options to make the mission run as smooth as possible.
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
You stopped tapping your heel when you noticed
a person standing in front of you; their presence planted only a few inches away from you.
You slowly scanned the person. 
You jolted up from your seat and bowed.

"Mr. Hajoon-shi, what are you doing here?" you asked. 
"Let me give you a ride home," Hajoon suggested. 
"What?" Your eyes widened from his suggestion. 
"It's okay! The bus should be here in a few minutes," you told him, as you looked down the road to see if there was any sign of the bus. 
Hajoon followed your eyes, and then he looked back at you.
"I don't see the bus."
You looked back at him. 
"It's really okay. I can wait," you indirectly declined his offer, adding a slight chuckle at the end.
"Get in the car," Hajoon said, before he walked to his car. 
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
You stood there, baffled.
What's wrong with him?
You caught on to the people who stared at you, whispering to each other words you couldn't make out.
You gave them an apologetic smile and slight bow in apology for the slight commotion.
Just as you took your first step, an ahjumma stopped you by grabbing your wrist.
You looked down and smiled at her, hiding your confusion.
"I'm sorry about that," you apologized.
"Honey, he's the one if you haven't realized it yet," she smiled. 

"W-what?" You stuttered, puzzled from her unpredicted comment.
"He's the one," she repeated, wearing the same smile. 
"Oh, no! He's my boss," you laughed it off. 
She gave you one of those smiles, signaling to you she knew, you knew what she meant. 
"Don't let him go, " she advised.
You were stunned as you couldn't reply back to her.
"You should go before he waits too long," the ahjumma said, before letting your wrist go.

You slowly turned around to look at Hajoon. 
He stood outside of his car, waiting for you, arms crossed, leaned against the driver's door.
You turned back and gave the ahjumma a slight bow. 
"Thank you," you smiled. 
It was the only phrase you could think of that was appropriate. 
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
The closer you walked to his car, the butterflies began emerging one by one. 
Why is this happening?
You whined. 
You knew you couldn't get in his car with what you were feeling. 
"Mr. Hajoon-shi." 
Hajoon turned around to look at you as he stopped from entering his car. 
"I'll take the bus. I'd hate to be a bother," you told him. This time the palpitations felt a little abnormal.
"Get in the car. I'll drop you off," he said again. 
"I know you're busy, so it's really okay."
Hajoon sighed, as he didn't know you'd be this stubborn.
He was slowly getting to know you. 
"You either get in the car peacefully, or did you---" 
Before Hajoon could even finish, you interrupted him.

"Wait!" You held your hand up in a stop sign.
Korean dramas.
You thought.  
"I will scream if you do anything to me!" You warned him. 
Hajoon was startled by your response.
"W-what?" Hajoon asked, furrowing his brows.
"What are you planning to do?" you asked him, taking a few steps back, covering your chest with your bag.
"What are you doing?" 
He didn't know how he got himself into this situation. 
"No, I should be asking you that question," you replied. 
"I was going to say if you don't want to, then feel free to take the bus," Hajoon finished. 
You processed what he said, feeling incredibly stupid.
"Huh?" You expressed, raising one brow.
"If you want to take the bus, then go ahead," he repeated.
"You...You weren't going to," you began trailing your words into a whisper," carry me into your car?" 
"What did you say?" Hajoon asked as he didn't catch your words. 
You looked at him. 
"It's nothing!" 
Hajoon stood by his car, confused with the whole situation. 
"Enjoy the rest of your evening," you bowed before leaving. 
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
Hajoon watched you walk back, sitting down on the same bench.
Why would Eunwoo be looking into you?
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
You looked at Hajoon as he got into his car, driving off. 
I'm sorry.
You thought. 
"Did you two argue?" the same ahjumma asked. 
You looked over to the side to see her looking right at you. 
"Ahjumma." 
You thought for awhille. 
"No," you answered. 
"It's okay if you guys did. It's normal for couples to argue," she assured you. 
"No, we're not a couple. He's my boss," you told her. 
"Follow what your heart wants and not what your mind tells you," she advised, giving you a smile. 
You repeated her words in your head. 
I don't know what my heart wants though. 
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
"Eunwoo!" You waved as you saw him waiting at the stop. 
Eunwoo looked up and smiled the moment he saw you. 
You ran up to him. 
"You're home early."
"What do you mean? It's 7PM/19:00." 
"You're not working at the other job?" Eunwoo asked. 
"No, they told me to not go in today."
"Good! You've been working too hard," Eunwoo said, patting your head. 
Wait, why am I not working tonight? Is there another meeting? 
You thought.
Eunwoo observed your expression. 
"Is something wrong?" Eunwoo asked.  
You looked at him. 
"I forgot something back at work," you lied. 
"I can come with you." 
"It will be quick! I'll be back, Eunwoo!" you told him. 
Before Eunwoo could stop you, you had already ran off. 
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
You hailed a taxi and told the driver where to. 
You flipped your phone and searched for Hajoon's number.
You knew you had to inform him of this, just in case anything really did happen. 
Aish, I don't have his number. 
You frustratedly closed your phone, throwing it back in your bag. 
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
You paid your fare and quickly ran down the street.
You hid behind one of the black cars parked along the right side of the street, across from the residence,
peeking to get a good view of the entrance. You scanned the outside and counted the cars. 
Four.
You thought. 
That means all the family members are here. 
You scanned the area a little better. 
I don't think Hajoon's father is here.
You assumed. 
You retreated and bent down, leaning against the black car, and gathering down the information you had.
I need to tell Hajoon about this. I should get pictures too. 
You searched for your phone and flipped it open. 
You crawled around the back of the car and laid on the ground, snapping pictures of the cars parked outside of the residence.
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
You crawled back to your hiding spot and looked at the pictures, proud that you were slowly gathering evidence.
Truth was you were excited that you would be seeing him soon.
You threw your phone back in your bag. 
Let me wait it out for a while. 
You planned. 

He's probably home already. 

Click!
You scrambled away from the car and looked at it. It was as if someone had unlocked the car.

Aish! The meeting is probably done! 
You panicked. 
Just as you midway crawled past the car, the person called your name. 
"Park ------shi." 
You stopped and looked up at the car to see the window rolled midway down. 
"Park -----shi?" 
He called again. 

You slowly stood up and looked inside the car. 
Your eyes widened, covering your mouth.
"Omo!" You gasped. 
"Mr. Hajoon-shi!" 

Hajoon shushed you for being too loud. 
You covered your mouth again and looked around. 
You leaned in, as your head perfectly fit through the opening of the window. 
"Mr. Hajoon-shi, what are you doing here?" you asked him. 
"Can you speak any louder?" Hajoon asked. 
You bowed your head and apologized.
You retreated, opened the car door and gently closed it. 
You sighed in relief, turning to face him. 
"What are you doing in my car?" Hajoon asked. 
You gave him a confused look. 
"That...That wasn't an invitation?" you asked.
"No," Hajoon replied with his blank stare. 
What an embarrassment.
You died a little bit inside from your embarrassing act.
"I'll see you tomorrow, Mr. Hajoon-shi," you smiled, bowing your head. 

Just as you had your hand on the handle, ready to push out, Hajoon stopped you. 
"What were you doing here?" 
You stopped and looked over your shoulder, as his gorgeous yet intimidating eyes stared right into yours.
You removed your hand and got comfy again to face him. 
"About that. When I was walking back home, I realized that it was odd that Ms.Yoo gave me a sudden call to not come in. I usually work tonight until midnight," you spilled. 
"Mr. Yoo?" 
"She's the head housekeeper." 
Hajoon thought for a while.
He remembered her. 
"Do you know her?" You asked Hajoon as you realized he was zoning out from the conversation. 
Hajoon looked at you. 
"No," he lied as he continued to think about something else. 
Was she on it too? 
Hajoon thought. 
There were too many people in the picture now. 
"Are you okay, Mr. Hajoon-shi?" you asked him as you realized him zoning out again. 
Hajoon snapped back and looked at you. 
"I'm fine," he replied. 
Hajoon looked at his side mirror, seeing if anyone had come out. 
"Did you see who went inside?"
Hajoon looked over to you. 
"I did." 
"Your family members, right?" 
"I wouldn't necessarily call them my family members," Hajoon replied. 
What? 
You were confused with his answer but ignored it. 
"The same people I saw the other night then. What do you think they're doing here?" you asked Hajoon, looking back to see if anyone walked out of the property.
"I'm not sure either," Hajoon replied. 

"Wait, what are you doing here?" you looked back at Hajoon, as you realized he was parked in front of the Lee's residence. 
Aish, he probably saw me crawling behind his car then.
You thought.
"How long were you here? Did you...see me---"
Before you could even finish your question, Hajoon answered your unfinished question.
"I saw everything," he answered, as he continued to keep watch.
You turned away, looking out the window, closing your eyes from discomfiture. 

"You're a pretty dedicated and determined..." Hajoon thought about the word first, "...partner." 
You opened your eyes and looked at him, surprised at his compliment.
You smiled at him, feeling proud of yourself. 
"Mr. Hajoon-shi, of course! We're partners! I can't let you down." 
Hajoon glanced over, not knowing what to say next. 
"We should wait a little bit. Maybe, we'll get something," you suggested. 
Hajoon gave you a nod in agreement, as he looked at the side mirror again. You faced front and waited, fidgeting with your fingers. 

Without realizing, you glanced over at him. 
You swallowed your saliva as you felt the funny tingles in your stomach. 
You looked away and closed your eyes. 
It's nothing. It's nothing at all. I'm just hungry. I will be okay. 
You reminded, half lying to yourself. 
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
You opened your eyes, realizing you fell asleep. You noticed that the sun had gone down as 
the moonlight was the only source of light beaming down. 
Aish, I feel asleep! What the heck had happened? 
You sat up and looked over at Hajoon's seat. 

He looked so relaxed. 
You haven't realized how soft he looked while he was asleep.
What am I thinking? Stop it!
You held yourself back. 
You turned back and saw that the cars were still there. 
No one left yet? 
You thought. 

You turned back and looked at Hajoon who was soundly asleep. 
You soft smiled.
I never thought I'd see this side of you. 

Without realizing, your hand extended out, ready to make contact with his soft, white cheeks. 

His hand grabbed onto your wrist, startling you. 
Your eyes widened, as you didn't know what to do. 

Hajoon opened his eyes and stared into your soul.





"What are you doing?"
