Isn't this worth celebration?

-Nado Café-

"Miss Bae, your Americano." Lee Hyun spoke as he passed the cup to you.

"Thank you, Mr. Lee" You thank him while receiving your drink.

Sitting on the chair, He looks at you with mixed emotions, more to be precise a little embarrassed, before saying "I hope Miss Bae will forgive me for my earlier rudeness. I sometimes get swayed by emotions."

"N-No, You don't need to apologize. In fact, I need to thank you for standing up for me, for touring me around and for being nice to me. I hope you will take care of me while I work here. I will work hard. Thank you." You get up and bow deeply to show your appreciation.

Lee Hyun also hastily gets up and bows in response "Yeah, I will try my best to assist you."

You both sit and chat while you drink for some time before CEO Jin calls Secretary Lee in his office. Lee Hyun reminds you that you could go home and starts working from tomorrow. After that, you bid each other goodbye.

-Outside-

As soon as you step outside, you couldn't help but pinch yourself.

"Ouch, that hurts." You say but your smile was reaching up to your ears.

You spring up and begin to dance in joy " Woah! I did it. I got a job. Now I am officially an employee of one of the top company. Wow, Wow, Wow. This good news should be told to everyone. Mainly to my so called 'Ex-Boss' who is still waiting for me to return. Should I call her?"

You take out your phone yet put it back as you shake your head "How can I miss her priceless reaction? Haha, I can't wait. Let's go get some stuff before heading to Jeongyeon's house."

You were about to walk away, when you see the puppy whom you fed earlier, running towards you with its tail swayed here and there with excitement.

"Oh My." You crouch down to pet him.

"Well I am not an animal lover however that doesn't mean I am a cruel person. Still, I can't take you with me. I can't even take care of myself. And I am pretty bad at handling pets. Sorry." You feel bad for him but you stand up to leave.

Just then, you hear someone calling out your name. You turned around to see Lee Hyun running towards you. 'Why is everyone running towards me nowadays?' You hastily dismiss the unnecessary thought out of your head.

"M-Miss Bae! *Huff* *Huff*" As soon as he reaches up to you, He tries to catch up his breath.

"Mr. Lee, Is something wrong?" You ask.

"I forgot something. It's your I-d card. I forgot to give you your I-D card." Lee Hyun said as he passed you employee I-D card with your photo on it.

"Thank you but you could've given that to me tomorrow. Why such a haste?" You ask while taking it.

"I was about to since I thought you already left. While I was heading out with CEO, I saw you and excused myself for few minutes. Now that, I have done my job, please pardon me." Lee Hyun bowed and left to where he came from.

"CEO?" You stare at Lee Hyun dashing towards a black car. You couldn't see who was inside but guessing it was CEO Jin, You bow deeply in respect. After that, you also leave the place.

Faraway, from the black car, Jin was peering at your disappearing back until Lee Hyun arrives. "Boss, I am sorry for the wait. I will start the car now." Then, they depart.

*Ding Dong*

"Y/N, What is all this?" Jeongyeon inquires as she looks at you carrying heavy bags.

"Jeongyeon, It's time to celebrate." You reply as you enter the house.

You put the stuff down and sit down on the couch.

"*Sniff Sniff* Are you cooking something? It smells amazing." You head towards the kitchen.

Taking off the lid, you take a long satisfied sniff of the food. " Kimchi Stew! I love you Jeongyeon."

Taking off her apron, Jeongyeon says "Once the rice gets cooked, we will have dinner. Now, Will you tell me what are those stuff? And what did you mean by celebration? Celebration for being unemployed?"

*Chuckle*

You grab her by her shoulder and spin her around making her confused " Y/N, I am getting dizzy"

"Who said I am unemployed?" You shout aloud happily.

Jeongyeon grabs you by hand and questions in serious tone " What do you mean?"

You show her your palm "Wait, here!" before dashing toward your bag.

"Hey! Where are you going?"

"Just wait there! I will be right back." You shout out. Eventually grabbing your employee I'd card from your bag, you rush to the kitchen.

"Ta-Da!" You show your I'D card in front of her with wide grin plastered onto your face. "Now, Say who is unemployed? Isn't this worth huge celebration?"

Jeongyeon takes the card and stares at it for a long while. Noticing her reaction was slow, you call out her name "Jeongyeon?"

"AHHHHHHHHH!" In response to your calling, she suddenly screams.

"Y/N, You are an employee of Kim Enterprises? THE KIM ENTERPRISES?!"
