My Lady and I

A light-hearted romantic comedy between a young female boss and her older female assistant in a realistically reconstructed world of the defense industry based on the authentic experiences of the author. Plot Synopsis: 19yo Hina inherits a mega-corporation, but she is a billionaire underdog facing dauntingly massive pressure to succeed. Her sidekick, Sin, is an older and experienced woman who is a jack of all trades in the business world with a natural talent for improvising and working behind the scenes to make the clockwork tick. To repay her debt of gratitude to Hina’s late father who brought her under his wings and gave her a career in the defense industry, she dedicates herself to helping Hina and protecting her at all costs. The irresistible charm of Hina slowly starts to move Sin’s heart but she is a woman incapable of loving and being loved. However, Hina is an unpredictable force of nature and her nonchalant shower of affection makes it hard for Sin to juggle her ever-so-confusing feelings and professional commitment. The family feud within Hina’s family, power struggles in the company to oust the young heiress, and political landmines Sin needs to navigate with her young new boss make her life and career increasingly more precarious as time goes by.

Hina

"So, Miss. What was all that about?"

"THAT? I thought we said THAT didn't happen"

Hina protested as we sat side by side leaning against the trunk of the tree, with the curious squirrel staring at us with its head tilted to one side. 

"No, not THAT. I mean as in all that good-bye note and making me leave the company"

"I don't want to talk about it"

"With all due respect, I think I deserve to know why you were going to make me leave the company"

"Who said you can still come? THAT didn't mean all is forgiven"

"What have I done wrong that needs to be forgiven?!"

"For breaking a girl's heart…"

"Please, let's not be cryptic here. Also, even if I did that - whatever that means - that's no good reason to kick me out of the company"

"I just couldn't bear to see you again. Now I still can't. For a different reason. Maybe"

Hina pouted.
