This all happened when twenty year old xiaojin decided to pack up her life once again and move to seoul.

Xiaojin was wandering around Seoul for hours when luckily she found a position as personal secretary for jumin park, apart from one of the most respected families, she really couldn't complain about the long and hard work when the pay is well. Actually if you take into consideration, over hours, after, the random hours jumin would leave his cat when had to go on business trips. The pay actually was pretty bad but despite that xiaojin was able to keep a positive mind, well as best as he could but keeping a positive mind was possibly harder than having the job in the first place. It has become so hard to keep a clear and positive mind. Xiaojin wrote positive sticky notes putting them on places that she looked often such as her computer monitor, the clock , the door. One day xiaojin rushed to take a stack of documents to mr.park she carefully sat them on his desk and stood there waiting for him to read through and sign the documents ``seriously secretary xu this again." jumin said, sounding annoyed xiaojin quickly snapped her head up to see a dull yellow sticky note saying 'don't be depressed' on it placed in the corner of a document she had handed to mr. park "...i-i am so sorry" words barely able to slip from the womans mouth as she stood there a bit frozen, she often left notes on the documents, it was quite embarrassing as they often said depressing things on them as she tried to cheer herself up. Xiaojin went to grab the sticky note of the documents she had handed to mr. park but he stopped her by putting his hand over the note stopping her, instantly xiaojin stepped back and let her boss continue to read and sign everything he needed to . when jumin finished she went to grab the documents and she was stopped once again, "secretary xu what is my schedule for today" jumin asked though he knew very well what it was "we have a meeting in five minutes that may last about an hour if we are unfortunate, after that you're having lunch with your father, more documents , a meeting with investors for the new wine brand in france and that should be all mr.park'' she said sounding a bit lifeless as she successful picked up the document and left the room.

Jumin on the other hand was left with this weird feeling of some kind of guilt or maybe sorrow? But for once in his life he felt very bad for assistant xu the small thin female with abnormally pale skin a small face and medium sized puppy eyes, became more like a very thin zombie. When jumin arrived at the meeting xiaojin was already there standing in front of the door waiting to greet him as soon as jumin stepped foot in the door she had slightly bowed multiple times "welcome mr.park today's meeting is just an update meeting." she said moving out his way as he replied with a slight nod "secretary xu, give me a brief summary" jumin said as he watched the power point pull up an article that seem to be purely gossip a brief summary, the head from each department is giving a summary on their stocks and i also asked to the department to pull up any cornering articles, that will need your statement and approval." she said before turning her attention to what was being shown on screen. "H-hey i told you that article was not important it was just rumors." xiaojin said calmly although she was very frustrated, " what article is this..from cute puppy to creep zombie?" jumin said reading the article in a slightly mumbled voice "people are saying that my weight went from okay and i was thin and cute to underweight, boney thin while other say i look like a zombie -" though xiaojin wanted to whine more and continue she caught herself and stop immediately jumin caught wind of even the tiniest whine the younger let out without realizing it "then request the article be taken down" jumin said without giving it a second thought, though xiaojin wanted to object the thought of losing her job overpowered every other thought so she just stayed quiet. Not even two days later xiaojin once again was working overtime when suddenly jumin appeared in her office, so flustered by the sudden appearance she shot up from her chair nearly falling over. This concerned jumin as xiaojin seemed weak and underweight, "hello mr.park i-im sorry for not expecting you." xiaojin said approaching the older feeling dizzy from rushing out the chair, "no need to be sorry secretary xu, did you eat your meals like you were supposed to." the male asked sternly as the younger girl seem to have no regard for her well-being "well i-i.." xiaojin attempted to form words but they would form, as she was doing it felt like the world around her was falling down little did she realize she had fainted lucky jumin was there to catch her fall.
