Myungyeon, Sungjong (Jiyeon friend, Myungsoo other secretary)

A rude-and-cold boss with a very clumsy secretary. Jiyeon wanted to work yet she has a disease. (Let’s say that when someone goes mad at her by yelling/snapping, she would fear with him/her and end up having a high fever. It was hard to make her back to normal). She once confessed her feeling, but got rejected coldly by Myungsoo. But still, she worked as his secretary. Myungsoo who couldn't bear with her clumsiness anymore, that causing almost all his special things broke and shatter, suddenly burst out by snapping loudly 'something hurt' that made her disease comeback. His father was the one who hired her, so he can't fire her all he wanted. But when the disease was coming back, it wasn't only high fever but. She had to face death if it happened once again. It finally made Myungsoo realized, all his special thing that had ever been shattered by her was nothing compare to her who was sleeping in the hospital now. The doctor will tell him about her chance to live in this world, so he needs to be extra careful. 

Extra: I hope it wasn't confusing you, author-nim. Make Jiyeon really clumsy and Myungsoo had a short tempered but sweet in the end. Thank you.

“Mr. Kim!” Jiyeon closed her eyes tightly before bowing in front of Myungsoo, stretching a letter out to him. “This is my letter to you! Please take it! It’s my confession letter!”

Jiyeon stood there for a little longer, and finally opened her eyes when she felt no movements at all.

She tilted her head up slightly, only to find the figure in front of her gone. “Mr. Kim?”

“Don’t do that again because I don’t like you that way.”

Jiyeon turned around abruptly, and found Myungsoo at the door already. “Now prepare my coffee and papers for the next meeting while I have my lunch.”

And he was gone.

Jiyeon lowered her head sadly, holding the letter tightly in her hands.

“I told you not to do it, Ji.”

The girl frowned as she turned to the incoming figure. “Jong… I just wanted to try…”

“Now you know the result.” Sungjong sighed as he pulled her out of the CEO’s room. “Let’s go now. Prepare the papers first alright?”

“Okay…”

“Come on! You can do it! Don’t let him knock you down!”

Jiyeon let out a small smile, feeling grateful for a friend like Sungjong. “Thank you, Jong.”

“You’re my friend, Ji. Rely on me too.”

“I’m relying on you.”

Sungjong smiled too, before pushing her back to her seat, “Go on! Finish the papers up! I’ll brew the coffee first!”

“Thanks, Jong.”

“No problem~”

Jiyeon finished the papers up at once, and right on time, Myungsoo returned from his lunch. “Where’s the papers?”

“Here! It’s done, Mr. Kim!”

“On my table now.” Myungsoo demanded and walked towards his room, “And my coffee too. You brew it, not others.”

Jiyeon pouted sadly as she watched how Sungjong stopped his tracks with the cup of coffee in her hands.

The latter sent Jiyeon a shrug, before turning back into the pantry to throw the coffee away. Jiyeon sighed as she walked into the pantry then, and started brewing the coffee for him.

“He’s weird. He only wants the coffee you brewed.”

“I don’t know why too…”

“How did you brew it?”

Jiyeon did it for Sungjong to see at once.

“That’s it?”

“Yes, that’s it.”

“I did exactly the same thing as you.”

Jiyeon sighed before picking the cup of coffee up, “I don’t know. Maybe he’s trying to make me do more work.”

“Well… He’s weird.” Sungjong smiled before patting her back lightly, “Go on in now or he’ll burst again.”

Jiyeon obeyed and went into the room with the papers and the coffee. “Mr. Kim, your coffee and your papers are done.”

“Place them on the table.”

“Okay…” Jiyeon did as told but right when her hand was about to place the cup down, it trembled and the cup was knocked over.

Myungsoo widened his eyes in horror as he looked at his now-wet table. “YAH!”

Jiyeon jumped and cowered back at once, “I’m sorry! I’m sorry, Mr. Kim! I’ll bring a cloth to wipe it now!”

She scurried out of the room and came in with a new cloth at once, wiping the coffee away.

Even though it was hot, she still cleaned it.

“Now my papers are all wet!”

Jiyeon bit her lips before taking the files over. “I’ll re-type them, Mr. Kim!”

“I want them by 3PM!”

“Yes, Mr. Kim!”

“Get out now! And bring me another coffee! You better be careful now! Don’t break my things again!”

“Yes, Mr. Kim! I understand!” Jiyeon bowed countless times before hurrying out of the room, off to brew another cup of coffee again.

This time, she held it carefully, and placed it gently onto the table, before leaving to finish the papers up.

“Ji, let’s go for lunch now!”

“I can’t, Jong.”

“Why?”

“I have to finish these papers by 3PM.”

“What?!” Sungjong was surprised alright. It was one hour to three, and she had five files on hand to type. “Why?!”

“I spilled the coffee and broke his cup. I have to re-type all these files.”

“Ji…”

“It’s fine! Go and eat, Jong! Could you get me a sandwich too?”

Sungjong sighed and gave in at once. He couldn’t do a thing too. He was sure Myungsoo would get mad if he knew Sungjong helped her with the typing.

They actually tried it before. Myungsoo caught it, and he punished the both of them together instead – asking them to type the same document for 30 times, no copy and paste, while he stood behind and monitored them.

“Only sandwich?”

“Yup! Only sandwich!”

“Alright. I’ll go now!”

“Take care, Jong!”

Jiyeon continued typing the documents, and finished up by 3PM exactly. But once she was in the room, it turned 3.01PM.

“You’re 1 minute late.”

“But I typed them all!”

“No excuse. Late means late.” Myungsoo rolled his eyes as he snatched the files over. “Stay for 10 minutes after work.”

“But-”

“No buts. My words are final.” Myungsoo was fierce alright, which made her too afraid to argue. “Get out.”

Jiyeon bowed quickly and got out at once.

“Why do I fall in love with such a man…?” She was wondering about that question the whole time, but love just happened.

She was happy when she saw him, every moment. She was so glad to be able to see his smile, just for once when he was at a annual party.

He fell for him immediately – just by that smile.

But well, he was still the short-tempered and cruel boss behind that mask.

Jiyeon had no choice too.

Her feelings just wouldn’t change.

Love means love.

She loved him, and she will continue to love him for quite some time. She knew it. Her feelings were always like this.

Jiyeon sighed sadly as she took her seat again, staring at the desktop blankly. “I hope things will turn better someday…”

♥♥♥♥♥

But everything was the same for the whole month.

The only difference was that Jiyeon turned a little clumsier than ever.

No reason why.

She was just like that.

She broke two vases in his room, six cups of coffee, three cups of tea, and even mixed the papers up for countless times during this one month.

Myungsoo had enough.

He finally had enough.

Jiyeon was about to enter the room, only to overheard Myungsoo on the phone. “Abeoji.”

“Eo? He’s talking to his father…” Jiyeon thought, and was about to leave but she stayed when she heard her name,

“Can I fire that Jiyeon girl?”

“No! She’s clumsy alright? Why are you keeping her here?! You can keep her at home as a maid if you want it! I don’t need her in the office! She’s getting in my way!”

“What?! Why?! Why can’t I fire her?!”

“She’s your saver? What saver? Why don’t I know about that?!”

“Wait! Wait, abeoji!”

“Abeoji!”

It was of no use. The call was being hung up.

Jiyeon watched as Myungsoo threw his phone onto the couch angrily, before ruffling his hair in anger.

She finally braved herself to enter.

Jiyeon gulped hardly while holding onto the files tightly in her arms. “M-Mr. Kim…”

“What do you want now?!”

“I… Erm… Here’s the files… for the meeting at 4PM…”

Myungsoo snatched the files over before throwing it onto the couch too, “Get out now. I don’t want to see you.”

“M-Mr. Kim…”

“WHAT?”

“Erm… I…” Jiyeon was already having difficulty breathing, but she kept it calm. “Did I… do anything wrong…?”

“Do you really want to know?”

“Y-Yes…”

“Well then. You did. YES YOU DID!” Myungsoo roared, which made the girl jumped. She bit her lips, trying to calm her heart dow
