It was the next day since I encountered my first meeting with Hana and working alongside her as her assistant. I wasn't ready for this. Ever since; I met her, she made everything hard for me and seemed to enjoy it. Maybe she hates me as much as I do.
It was my first day as her assistant, and here I am, sitting in my cabin, drinking coffee and chatting with Rita. Waiting and welcoming Hana while fulfilling her demands; is not something I'll be going to do. I will let her know who the boss is. Well, technically, she is my boss, but I will let her know; that she cannot dominate me.
Rita was worried that Hana would get furious and complain to the senior. As much as I know about her, she will never do that. She likes to play games; and challenges me for one. I keep ignoring Rita and find Chan-yeol coming from behind in a happy mood. He's pleased to work for Hana since yesterday.
He saw me sitting and heading down on my desk and said:
"Helooooo! What are you doing here? Don't you have to attend Miss Hana at the reception?"
I replied while keeping my head down:
"No. You can go and attend her if you want. You are dying to work with her anyway. I gave you the honours."
I was expecting Chan-yeol to say something in return, but he was unusually silent. Normally, he would start fighting for Hana. I wasn't in the mood to argue anyway, so I kept my head down. Suddenly, someone patted my shoulder. I didn't do anything thinking of the person being Chan-yeol.
He patted me two times and then came closer to my ear, whispering:
"I want coffee."
It wasn't Chan-yeol's voice but Hana's. I stood up, startled by her voice with such closeness asking her:
"What are you doing here?"
Hana replied:
"What a stupid question. I was waiting at the reception for you to come and greet me until I found it suspicious. Now; that I'm here, I want you to get me a cup of coffee."
She looked frustrated by my action but didn't show any sign of it. She cannot fool me. I smirked at her and went to buy her a coffee. She asked me to bring her Iced Americano. I was happy to see some reaction from her.
After some time, I headed back to the office with Iced Americano and saw Hana sitting on my desk touching my stuff. I hurried towards her and said:
"Hey! Don't touch my stuff."
She was holding pictures of Rita and me; eating ice cream on Baga Beach, Goa when we were kids. Rita, along with Hana, was enjoying and telling details of our childhood. I rushed and took my picture from her hands, handing her the coffee.
She smiled at me and took another picture from Rita of our childhood, and said:
"Children are so cute when they are kids until they become fierce as adults."
She said while scanning me from up and down. She meant me as fierce. I moved forward and grabbed my pic from her hand to take it back. She didn't let go this time and held the picture tighter.
We both clambered with each other when suddenly the coffee in Hana's hand spilt on our clothes. At that moment, everyone was shocked and quiet. I was furious with Hana, but she was enjoying the moment. It made me more frustrated, and hence I yelled:
"You happy now? See what you've done. Can't you mind your own business?"
I was loud and rude. Everyone heard what I said and was shocked by it. Rita put a hand on my shoulder, asking me to calm down. Chan-yeol, on the other hand, was making Hana comfortable. I saw the environment gets tense.
I kept looking at Hana with anger whereas, she was calm, staring back at me. Suddenly, one of the seniors came out of their office asking for an explanation for the noise. He looked at us and was shocked to see Hana covered in coffee. He rushed to her, asking if she was okay or not. The senior then glanced at me; drenched in coffee on my clothes.
He thought that I did something, and started scolding me. I was only staring at Hana and saw her smirking at me. She was testing my patience. I then shifted my attention to the senior and apologised. However, the senior took it as an accident, clearly unaware of the situation.
The other co-workers said the same about being in an accident. The senior asked me to take Hana, helping her to clean and change her clothes. The senior then; get back to his office, excusing others to resume work. I asked Rita to help Hana and get her clothes changed.
Rita asked Hana to follow her politely, but Hana didn't move and said:
"As my assistant, you should take care of me, not Rita."
She took a chair and sat beside me, waiting for me to stand up and go with her. She is my boss during her project with the company, so I have to do everything she asks for. It's just a few days in Korea yet, she manages to convince me to go back to India. She is very exhausting. I wonder if she is the same as everyone or if it's just me only.
I stooped up and asked Hana to follow me in exhaustion. I didn't want to say anything to her. I know she only wants to make everything hard for me. So, I decided not to say or react to anything she says or does.
I took extra clothes from the production department for Hana. I borrowed a hoodie from Rita as she keeps extra pair of clothes. We both went to the washroom to change and clean ourselves. When we entered the washroom, Hana locked the door. I saw her closing the door and asked:
"Is it your habit to lock the door?"
She didn't answer but smirked at me and came closer to me. I got nervous every time she came close to me, but I don't show her my nervousness. I stood straight, folding my hands, looking back at her. She wore off her hoodie right in front of me.
I got startled as she was close to me and took off her hoodie. Yet, I stand firmly, not showing any sign of panic. I can't help but look at her body. She has a beautiful lean body. Her abs are flattering on every part of her body. She has tight and stiff muscles, making her look attractive and breathtaking. I noticed tattoos on one of her arms complimenting her personality with long dark hair in half ponytail hairstyle. Now that I'm looking at her, I noticed a cut on her one eyebrow making her more attractive.
While I was admiring her, she snapped her fingers and asked:
"Are you enjoying the view? Take a good look at it."
I couldn't say anything at that point as she was right about me enjoying the view. She is flawlessly beautiful. She took my hand, bringing me close to her, making me touch her abs in a downward motion.
I gulped hard. She knows what she is doing. It doesn't look like her first time. I tried to pull away, but she didn't let me. She came closer to me and sneaked her hand onto my waist. I moaned to her touch without realisation. I blinked fast and couldn't breathe normally, as I feel her hands moving slowly under the back of my shirt.
As she moved closer to me, I felt my body betraying me. I couldn't move away from her. As she came closer and closer, she whispered in my ear:
"Should I carry on? Your body seems to enjoy me."
I replied in a low and unstable voice:
"Could you move away from me? Don't you know anything about personal space?"
She smirked and said:
"You are very brave and feisty even in a moment like this. I must say, it turns me on. If you want me to move away, you know what to say."
All this time, she was whispering into my ear; in a deep voice. I can feel her breath on my neck, making me shiver down my spine. It was hard to fight her with everything she was doing to me. I know what she meant, and hence, I said:
"Hana, please let me go. I beg you."
She scoffs and backs herself away from me. As she moved back, I released a deep breath and ran towards one of the cabins. My heart was beating faster. It feels like; it will burst out any time soon. I tried to hold my composure and changed my clothes. I quickly came out of the cabin, trying to avoid Hana.
She was sitting on the washbasin's lap, staring and smiling at me. I avoided her and excused myself to leave first. As I was leaving; she grabbed my hand and pulled me towards her saying:
"You should behave like a good girl around me. You are going to be with me for a long time."
Saying this, she let go of me. I didn't look at her and left for my department. When I reached my department, my friends asked me about taking a long time. Rita even pointed out the paleness of my skin.
Before I could answer anything, Hana answered:
"We were helping each other to clean and chatted a bit. We even sorted out our differences. Am I right, Mia?"
I nodded and smiled at her statement. Everyone sighed in relief and left for their cabin. Rita asked Hana to come with us and start the work process, but Hana excused herself for the day. She told Rita that she will start working the next day. Hearing this, Rita patted my shoulder and left for her cabin.
I didn't look at Hana even though she was right in front of me. As she leaves, she stopped and said:
"Good girl! I will see you tomorrow."
I glanced back at her leaving the place; and took a few breaths of relief. It was the first day with her, yet, it went like this. How will I manage other days with her?
