5 CHAPTER - 5

"Welcome!" Bo Young turned to the door to look. The customers were so chatty. The moment she looked at them, she hid below the counter. She thought: "Crap, Why am I running into these idiots again and again." She was searching for something to hide her face. She saw a cap and a package of reusable mask lying on the floor. She dusted them, but she was delayed because of the mask, she couldn't open the packet properly. Finally, she opened and wore everything. "Yeon Joon, why did you try to hide that the dumbo was the one who hurt you?" Ha Sang told. Bo Young thought: "Again dumbo? That bastard really! Didn't that Soo Ki shout my name really loud that even the next neighbourhood could hear." Yeon Joon told, "Why are we going back to that topic huh? You know the truth now. So just let it be. It is not like she did it on purpose." Bo Young thought: "Yeah, it's not like I did it on purpose. I asked him sorry excessively. What is wrong with that bastard?" Ha Sang asked, "You called her 'sorry girl' when she bumped into us. You shouldn't have called her like that, you should have called her 'Hazard girl'." Bo Young got really irritated. She thought: "'Hazard girl'??! He must be crazy. That-" Yeon Joon replied to Ha Sang, "She wouldn't stop asking sorry to me. She was really guilty. I told her to stop asking sorry, but still, she wouldn't. That was the reason I called her 'Sorry girl'. She didn't do it on purpose too." Ha Sang told, "She asked sorry to you several times, while she didn't even thank me. I think she has a motive to be nice to you alone. Whatever it is you shouldn't have-"

Bo Young thought: "Why should I be nice to one person and not to the other? Is he crazy? I don't have a motive at all to be nice to him. I precisely don't want to have a connection with you all." Yeon Joon interrupted Ha Sang by telling, "If she has a motive, then why would she shout at me too for calling her 'sorry girl'. Alright, alright enough of this topic." They both came to the counter and saw no one was there. Yeon Joon looked everywhere and finally looked behind the counter. Bo Young thought: "Why are they silent? Did they leave? They didn't pay for what they bought too. Did they steal? They don't look like they-"

"Excuse me? Are you okay there?" Yeon Joon asked. Bo Young told, "Oh, they are still here." Bo Young told, "Yes, I'm okay. I was just picking something. Would you like to pay?" she stood up and faced them but lowered her head even though there was a cap and a mask to hide her face. Yeon Joon got scared in the way she was dressed and her appearance. Bo Young wore all black. Coincidentally, the cap was also in black. Yeon Joon was really suspicious of her. Yeon Joon tapped Ha Sang's shoulder who was looking at his phone and acted out to make him look at Bo Young. Ha Sang mouthed, "Omg. It's creepy." Yeon Joon continued, "Yes we are. Have you been aware of the robbers roaming in this neighborhood??" Bo Young thought: "Why is he bringing up something random?? Why is he trying to make a conversation in the first place? Let's just be normal and answer." 

Bo Young replied, "Is it? I don't know that. I'm new to this neighborhood. Here you go, it's 2,000 won." Yeon Joon said, "Ohhh. Thank you" and they both left. Bo Young sighed and told, "Thank God he didn't recognize me. It's time the next shift starts, they still didn't come. Let's go out and get some fresh air." She went outside and felt the breeze relaxed. She thought: "Oh, why am I still wearing this?" When she was reaching for the mask and cap, someone grabbed her hand. Her reflexes were fast.

As soon as they grabbed her hand she wrist-locked their hand and kicked them. As soon as the guy fell, another guy came from the other side and tried to catch hold of her whole body, but before he could, Bo Young punched him the face. He almost fell with a shriek. Bo Young told, "You guys think you can fight with a Red-White belt taekwondo student huh?" She felt her hands were held behind her back, like the police would do. The person who grabbed her hand was the same person who held her hands behind her back. The person told, "You think you can fight with a Black-White belt taekwondo student?" Bo Young tried to move but couldn't.

She thought: "He is a Black-White belt student!!! Wait, why does this-" The guy who held the hands of Bo Young asked the guy who got punched, "Are you okay? Hurry here." The guy who got punched got up and stood before Bo Young. Bo Young was shocked. Her mind spoke: "Han Yeon Joon? He is the one I punched. If this is Yeon Joon then the other guy must be...YANG HA SANG?" Bo Young looked straight into his face. Bo Young had two thoughts in her mind, one is that if they take off her mask and cap, they would know it is Bo Young, the other one is that if they don't, that might take a decision which is really drastic.

Bo Young told Yeon Joon, "W, wait. We can talk it out. I can talk too. So don't take any unwanted decision." Yeon Joon told in an intimidating manner, "The decision you are talking about is taking off your disguise right." Bo Young hesitantly told, "You are right but I'm really not a robber like you think. But don't take off my cap and mask. I'm totally innocent." Ha Sang told, "That should not be told by you, but us. Yeon Joon don't waste time and hurry up. We are going to be late." Yeon Joon told, "I guess it is time for you to surrender, miss.robber."

She told,  "No don't. I told you already that I am not a –" Yeon Joon didn't let her finish and took off her cap and mask at the same time. Her hair swished in the air as he took off the cap. She lowered her head and told, "I told you that you got the wrong person, didn't I?" and slowly looked at Yeon Joon. Yeon Joon was really stupefied, he told, "Wa, wait. What???" Ha Sang asked, "Why? What is it? Why are you looking at her like that?" Ha Sang set her hand free and came to look at her. Ha Sang was also really dumbfounded and told, "DUMBO???!!! IT WAS YOU TILL NOW??!"

Bo Young sighed and told, "Finally, you find that now. Soo Ki shouted my name 'NAM BO YOUNG!' and you still can't get my name in your head." Yeon Joon told, "We are really sorry, we couldn't identify that it was you. But why would you be in a disguise?" She told, "Is why I was in disguise important when you guys were about to call the police?" Yeon Joon asked, "Police?? We never called the- Ha Sang did you do it?" Ha Sang told, "With her taekwondo skills I thought she really was a robber, that is why I almost called the police. Anyway be relieved that I didn't call the police.

She frowned at Ha Sang. Ha Sang also started frowning at her. Yeon Joon told, "I will ask sorry on his behalf. But why did you wear a disguise in the first place??" Bo Young told, "I already bumped into you both several times and after bumping into you my day hasn't been normal. So, I wanted to not bump, no, I didn't want to look at you guys and cause any more trouble and wanted my first day to be smooth." Ha Sang told, "Do you think even we wanted to bump into you?? Don't even think about." Yeon Joon told, "Alright alright. Stop it." After Yeon Joon said that, Bo Young and Ha Sang frowned at each other and then turned away.

"What is going on here?" someone with deep voice asked. Ha Sang left an exclamation and told, "Oh! Sunbae, what are you doing here?" (sunbae- Korean word for senior students) Yeon Joon and Bo Young turned to look. Yeon Joon also identified him. The only thought Bo Young had was: "Wait, am I crazy? Why is my heart beating so fast? It's not like he is not handsome too. He is tall, has a deep voice, good looking face. Well, he does match my ideal type. Bo Young, you are not in the situation to even imagine about dating? Crap, my heart is not slowing down." The sunbae told, "I-"

Bo Young's phone ringed. It was an unknown number. She attended the call, "Hello? Who is it?" The person from the call told, "Oh, I guess Seul Hee didn't give my number to you. I'm your house owner. I wanted to check, if you are doing well in the apartment." Bo Young told, "Oh! I'm sorry. I will be right there, now." The homeowner told, "You don't have to hurry. I will be waiting. Be careful on your way." and the house owner hung up. Bo Young started to leave. She suddenly stopped and thought: "Oh, the next shift worker hasn't not come yet. Thank God I got the number from Shin Na unnie." She texted the next shift employee, "Im the worker before your shift. You still haven't arrived yet. Something came up so I have to leave now. Please hurry." She continued walking.

A notification popped up. The person saw the message and told to himself, "But I'm here already." Yeon Joon asked, "Sunbae did you tell something right now?"
