That's Your Job

June cleared his throat, straightening his posture as Lena continued speaking.

"I originally came to Korea for a business trip, and along with that, I wanted to visit Minjun. My mom had been telling me he hasn't been in the same state after his father had left—that bastard, really," she made a side comment. 

"But Minjun hasn't opened up to anyone about it," she said. "This is where you come in. I need your help keeping an eye on him.

"I can't be a parent for Minjun," June said. "That's your job." 

Lena pursed her lips, not being able to counter the young man's words. She wanted to be a better mother for Minjun, but her job only allowed her to do so much. 

She couldn't leave the job she had undertaken for good reasons.

"Should you be saying that when we just met?" she asked, a bit offended.
