The next day, I spent an hour searching through the wardrobe, but in the end, I ended up looking like what he wanted me to look like.Sign..."Bring me the file on the construction of Java Textiles," he ordered me through the intercom while I was sitting in my office, searching through various files and trying to figure out how to organize them. I searched for the file and walked towards his office. Halfway there, I remembered I had to take off my overcoat. After taking it off, I entered his office, attempting to adjust the dress that hugged my curves tightly and revealed a large portion of my cleavage. His head snapped up, and he leisurely studied all my curves with a smirk on his face."This is the file you asked for," I placed it in front of him. He licked his lips as he took the file from my hands."Hmmm, this looks good," his eyes traveled all over me, lingering a little more on certain areas of interest. "Is there anything else, sir?" I asked, trying hard not to notice how he was

Finally, it was Saturday night, and I wouldn't have to see him the next day. I decided to watch a movie and have a few cans of beer, any film to take my mind off things. Pride and Prejudice happened to be the one I chose. While I was watching the movie, my phone started ringing. "Hello," I answered, munching on popcorn and throwing the second can into the nearby trash can. Well, at least I tried to throw it in the trash can. Like everything else in my life, it didn't work. "Crystal?" "Yeah, sorry, I'm bad at recognizing the voices of people I don't know." "When we met the other day, I'm Mario." "Oh, Mr. Mario," I jumped up, as if he had actually appeared there in person. "You can call me only Mario, no need for formality." Okay, so what did he want? Please don't ask me out! "Uh... I have plans actually?" I hesitated. "What plans?" he asked. "Uh... doing... laundry?" He laughed. "Come on, say yes. I want to take you out." "I..." "I'll pick you up at three pm then. Take car

Next day I reached my office ten minutes earlier.  But he didn't call for me for a good while. Some time around 11 am, when I was getting restless, troubled and thinking up of excuses to just barge into his office, he called for me.  When I entered, he was busy with a call. He ended that immediately and asked me to take a seat. He stayed there, sitting calmly behind his desk for a while, twirling a pen in his fingers. Then he started after clearing his throat, still not looking at me.  "I... decided to get myself a place, so um... I dialled this agent and... uh... he already has a few places in mind. Would you... I mean, you have to come with me."  "I have to?"  "Yes... ahem," He cleared his throat again "Because... um, in case... uh... I need something."  "Okay" I suppressed a smile.  "Let's go."

I couldn't believe I was standing in his penthouse, in his bedroom, helping him arrange his wardrobe. He was wearing a plain white shirt and blue jeans, which was refreshing to see because till now, I had always seen him wearing suits. The informal dress was making him less intimidating, and I was able to breathe more. It was almost like five years before.  Almost.  "You sure have loads of clothes for someone who was literally homeless up till now," I said, trying to reach u

I Called in sick the next day since I didn't have the energy to drag myself even to bed after what had happened last night.  Why was my life such a tragic comedy? Why did everything always go wrong? Most of all, why was I so freaking dumb? Maybe the answer was in the question, everything anyway went wrong because I was so freaking stupid.  Somehow, I pulled myself up and crawled onto my bed. I felt too much pain to move a little, the coffee was too hot when it made contact with my skin, it left a mark behind. I stayed there all day, trying to figure out how to deal with the mess I had gotten myself into. A smart human would resign at this point and start their life from a scratch, no matter how difficult. But wasn't an intelligent human, I was still hoping to find a way. I didn't want to run away this time, I wanted to face it. As long as I was in Seoul, there was going to be a way to make things work out. There had to be. I just h
