Everything We Didn't Expect

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min shook her head, boy was this guy insane. "I told you before, us women aren't all like that. But you really should go out more, it's healthy. I mean, I don't have many friends but I'll go out with co-workers." She said.

 

[StupidCupid]

He frowned. "You're not going to stop till I drag my lazy ass out to the world, aren't cha?" Hyun asked, hoping the answer was no. "But most potential wives for me are," he added. "I should make you meet some of them. Dad sets me up on blind dates. I'll show you one of my favorites." Sarcasm spilling from his lips. "I bet Veronica would look like such a darling in your eyes." He said that through rolling eyes.

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min shook her head laughing. "Hey, you do what you want to do. I'm not your mother Director Doh." She said. "I don't think I could ever do blind dates, they're too awkward for me.. Plus you never know what you could be getting yourself into these days." She said. Even though crime was less in South Korea, you still can't trust too many people. "Veronica? Is she an American?"

 

[StupidCupid]

He smirked, taking another sip of his tea. "Yea, mom is nicer than you. She doesn't tease me for talking to the tv." Hyun said, already missing his mother. He looked back up at her, snapping out of his thoughts. "Half. The other half is Korean. She was the latest blind date. I lost count on how many dad set me up on already." He said through a sigh, brushing away the stubborn loose hairs from his face.

 

[iMeisaki]

Laugh she shook her head. "I would never tease my boss for talking to a tv. It would jeopardize my job, I'm just saying that it's...interesting." She said, teasing him. "Oh..half-Korean. Does she look Korean?" She asked, curious about the women he was meeting.

 

[StupidCupid]

Hyun pouted once again. "So you only didn't want to tease me because of the job. If I weren't your boss you'd tease me?" He bowed his head, looking at the ground. "Meanie." He hissed.


"She doesn't look anything Korean, I'm actually having doubts that she's half." He answered, eyes glancing at the outside, noticing that it seemed to have gotten darker.

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min shook her head. "I'd treat you as a friend if you told me too. I'm still going to have some fun though." She said giggling. Ji-Min then became surprised hearing about this girl. "That's very weird..how she wouldn't look it. Not even one facial feature..Huh." She said, confused about how the girl could be that way.

 

[StupidCupid]

"Then I want you to treat me as a friend. I can never have too many of those." He said with a confident smile. He recalled Veronica's features, from the first date to the most recent one. "I think it's either the korean part of her genes just wasn't enough, or she did some surgery."


Feeling something vibrate on his pocket, he shoved his hand inside it, pulling out his phone. Opening it, he spots a wide array of texts, all sent by the same person. Why didn't he feel the vibrates a while ago? Perhaps he just liked taking to her too much. Hyun soon found out that the recipient was his father. Clicking one of the texts, he reads it. Seems like father was worried.


"Now why would he be in my home," Hyun muttered to himself.

 

[iMeisaki]

"Alright...so shall I call you Hyun?" She said, smiling. She had tried to think about this Veronica girl, she seemed very suspicious to Ji-Min for some reason. However, Ji-Min stopped daydreaming as she was interrupted by Hyun's silence as he looked down to his phone. She tilted her head in confusion. "Is something wrong..?" She asked, frowning.

 

[StupidCupid]

"Sure, go ahead and call me Hyun." He paused. "Just not in front of the other workers. They tend to speculate things." Hyun stood up, smiling sadly. "It was nice talking to you, but I've got some business to tend to at home. Apparently dad broke into my home." It didn't sound that grave really, but to Hyun it meant something. His father didn't just stroll into HIS home all willy nilly. There must be an explanation.

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min quickly nodded her head. "At work you are Director Doh! Here, you're Hyun." She said giggling. She then stood up and bowed her head. "Sorry to hear, good luck with your dad and Veronica..!" She said, watching him leave. Director- Hyun.. is a nice man at times. He may be stressed at times though.

 

[StupidCupid]

Modding one last time, Hyun made his leave, opening the door and closing it shut softly. He mad this way towards his car, getting in, starting the engine and driving back home. Once he got there, he reluctantly opened his apartment's door, only to see a human-less room. He sighed in relief, walking over towards his work table, finding a post it with words written on it.


You took too long, I'll just discuss matters with you tomorrow. - Dad


"Fudge," he hissed. "So he called me here just for a post if note."





Ruffling his hair, he changed into a pair of shorts and a white shirt, collapsing on the bed, smiling. Well, today wasn't that bad. He found out that the Ji-Min girl wasn't all that bad.

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min had sighed, hoping that Hyun was alright. He did seem a bit worried about the text he received. Hopefully it was nothing bad. Ji-Min then took his dirty cup and brought it to the sink to clean it. After she did that, she went towards her closet and changed into pajamas. Slowly, she treaded towards her tv and sank into her couch, watching Korean Game Shows.

 

[StupidCupid]

The next morning, Hyun woke up with a smile on his lips. Well that was rare and off for him. He easily brushed the thought off, taking a shower, dressing up, eating breakfast and heading to the work office. No matter! He can't spend the whole day wondering about his little chat with his co worker.

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min had fell asleep on her couch. She woke up with aching back pain. "Ah...I sat too much yesterday and didn't rest properly.." She said in a small whine. She rubbed her back slowly and then got up, getting ready for the day. After she had gotten ready, she had headed for the bus, making it on time and started heading to work.

 

[StupidCupid]

Hyun eventually got to his office, sighing in relief that at least no one broke into it this time. He truly wondered who did it, and why his father bothered to stop by. Shrugging, he went down toward a his department, starting his rounds to see who was late and who wasn't.

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min finally got to her job on time. She then entered the building and went to her cubicle, getting Taeyang and Yong-Hwa. She smiled, not seeing Director Doh yet. She was still a little worried about him from yesterday night.

 

[StupidCupid]

He took into account everyone that was in their cubicles, giving each one of them a smile. When he reached Ji-Min, he placed a finger on top of his lips, as if to remind her to tell no one of what happened the night before. Once he finished, he clasped his hands together, grinning as he made his way towards the center of the room. "We've got a meeting to attend to! Please get ready."

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min had giggled to herself, not moving her head or anything. She wouldn't tell anyone except her mother. What was wrong with two friends? Who happens to work for the other? Ji-Min heard his announcement and got ready for the meeting. Walking with her friends towards the meeting room to hear what they had to say.

 

[StupidCupid]

"Everyone gather to the meeting hall at nine thirty."


With one last how, he left the room, feeling quite content with himself, making his way towards his office and starting his part of work.

 

[iMeisaki]

It was only nine o'clock now. Ji-Min and her friends went back to work until they were going to be called for the meeting hall.

 

[StupidCupid]

Hyun checked his watch.


9:21 it read.


With a grunt, he pushed himself ip from his chair, gathering the necessary things and making his way towards the main hall. He passed by a few of the newbies from other departments, getting nods, smiles and greetings from them. He walked into the hall at 9:26, just a wee bit early. Taking a seat next to the other upperclassmen, he looked around the room to see if everyone had gathered.

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min saw Director Doh leave the room. She told Taeyang and Yong-Hwa to come with her so they won't be late. Quickly, they carried some supplies and brought everything over to the hall, seeing people behind them follow them.

 

[StupidCupid]

Once 9:30 struck, Hyun watched as the doors closed. He scanned the area to see if all his newbies finally came. Spotting Ji-Min with to other workers, he smiled. Once the meeting began, he really didn't care anymore, switching to la la land mode.

 

[iMeisaki]

Ji-Min had paid attention to what was happening in the meeting room. However, she saw Director Doh staring at nothing and wanted him to pay attention. She got frustrated seeing him like that, it bothered her thinking that he didn't care about his job as much as her.
