Lee Se-Young, My girlfriend

Se-Young was staring at Jae-In for quite some time now, he was utterly familiar to her but she could not exactly point her finger even after he told his name and although he was everyone’s center of attention right now but when he saw Se-Young looking at him with her squinted eyes he winked at her.

She widened her eyes and hurriedly looked away and he chuckled looking at her.

After some time, someone informed Se-Young that Dong-Hoon had asked her in his office and she felt her hands going cold. 'What is he thinking now.' she thought while getting out of the kitchen and Jae-In was looking at her back, smirking to himself.

Dong-Hoon’s PA opened the door of the office for Se-Young, she thanked her and went in.

She thought that he wanted to pick a fight with her so she was about to say something disrespectful but shut her mouth looking at someone else in the office as well. She cleared her throat, containing her posture. “Mr. Shim you asked for me?” she asked raising her eyebrows at him trying to avoid the scary-looking lady.

“Se-Young, don't need to be formal in front of Ms. Min.” she widened her eyes hearing that, he had never called her just Se-Young except when she fainted that she had no idea of.

He stood up from his chair and Min Eun-Bi followed behind as he walked up to Se-Young, embracing her tiny waist with his left arm, she was hella confused and her eyes were popping out while Eun-Bi was looking at her as if she was going to kill her at that mere instant. “Min Eun-Bi, this is my girlfriend Lee Se-Young. Se-Young, she is Min Eun-Bi whom I just rejected.”

Se-Young could not believe her ears. She... his girlfriend. His words were indigestible for her and she was just looking at him, dumbfounded. Moreover, the fact that he was telling her that he just rejected the girl in front of them made her question how savage he could get anymore.

Clenching her fist and trying to resist launching her anger out Eun-Bi said, “I think I should get going.” Dong-Hoon felt satisfied and smirked looking at her pissed-off state.

Stomping her foot, she hurriedly vanished from there.

And as soon as Eun-Bi left the office room, Se-Young pushed Dong-Hoon away and he did not like it. “May I know what was that?” she asked flaring her nostrils and crossing her arms.

Dong-Hoon cleared his throat to stop himself from smiling. “Look, I need your help. This woman is crazy and getting more crazier behind me...” she cut him off.

“Oh, so almighty Mr. Shim Dong-Hoon wants this lowly housemaid’s help.” she scoffed giving him a sarcastic smile.

“You can think whatever you want but... I am sorry that I called you a housemaid and things.” he said sincerely and she was not able to believe her ears. The one who was fighting with her a few days ago and insulting her for literally no reason, having that much of EGO inside him, how was he even able to utter that word.

“Are you drunk?” she asked pointing her finger towards him while gasping. He burst out in a peal of laughter. “Do I look like that? I am really sorry... like I am being genuine right now.” he nodded his head and blinked his eyes one time to make her realize that he was speaking the truth.

Making a weird face Se-Young started to talk to herself. “Am I dreaming... no, no... why would I have a dream about him... why is he being like this... or maybe he has finally lost it.”

Blinking rapidly Dong-Hoon was looking at her dumbfounded. Talking to herself she did not realize that she was saying all that aloud. He cleared his throat. “I don’t think a person who talks to sheep and herself like this should say such a thing.”

“Now you are back to mocking me again.” she rolled her eyes. “I am here saying sorry and then you are just blabbering to yourself then what am I supposed to say... just leave it. Tell me, will you help me with that woman?” he asked anticipating a positive reply.

She thought for quite some time. “I don’t see any reason to help you.” she gave him a tight-lipped smile and he groaned in frustration. “So, is there any reason for you to not help me?” he again asked.

She again thought and then said, “Yes, because I don’t want to.” she said and ran away from there.

He was about to grab her arm but she was really fast. “Don’t run, YOU ASTHMA PATIENT.” he yelled worriedly but Se-Young was long gone.

"Are you thinking about the new handsome guy?” Yoon-Hwa asked wriggling her eyebrows as Se-Young’s cheeks were a bright shade of red. Se-Young frowned her eyebrows in confusion. “Why would I think about him?”

“Huh, I saw how he winked at you.” Se-Young’s eyes widened in the realization that she had completely forgotten about that matter and that new guy.

“Wait, if you were not thinking about the new guy then were you...” Yoon-Hwa gasped placing her hand on her mouth and then said through it, “Don’t tell me Mr. Shim that is making you blush like that?”

Se-Young slapped her shoulder as she groaned while rubbing it. “Can you think something else rather than the boys and gossips? Go back to your work.” Se-Young said shooing her away.

When Yoon-Hwa left she started to think again about Dong-Hoon. He was behaving oddly even before going on the vacations and after that incident, he was getting weirder and weirder day by day.

...

The time passed just like that and now they were leaving for their homes.

She was particularly running in the lobby to avoid running into Dong-Hoon but Woo Jae-In came in front of her, stopping her from rushing out. “Hello.” he said smiling at her.
