❁ ≖≖✿❁ ≖≖ ❁Chapter 9


You walked calmly into your house after uber dropped you off directly in front of it. When you walk in, the shop appears to be a little empty. Only the cashier and two young waiters were present. Your mother was nowhere to be found.

You proceed to your roof apartment after a brief conversation with the staff. The owner of your adopted cat discovered it. You've been missing your fuzzy buddy. Your late grandmother's home is quite cosy, and it provided you and your mother with a sense of belonging. But, you are eager to relocate to Ulsan or Seoul with your mother. Your mother can open a new restaurant wherever she wants. And you're hoping that the lawyers can reach an arrangement so that your mother can receive the inheritance.

You tossed your backpack on the couch and sat face down on the beige L-shaped couch. This was, without a doubt, the most trying day. Meeting the new Team Leader, who is openly smitten with Suga. She even went so far as to invite him to lunch. Su-Li, who doesn't filter her feelings, was vocal about her disdain. She adores Suga as well, and when he says he'll join you guys for lunch tomorrow, you can't deny it, but it makes you happy.

After that, there was Mr Joo. Even after he returned Ms Hwan and even got engaged, your almost-boyfriend still has feelings for you. You knew you'd be in trouble when he trapped you in. Suga, on the other hand, came to your rescue. As you imagined yourself in his arms, your heart began to race. It was amazing. And when he caresses your cheek, his touch almost makes you melt. He has such an effect on you.

You're getting attracted to him. You sat up straight and let out a deep sigh. You had to suppress your growing feelings for a guy who would never like you like that.

He's pleasant and gentlemanly, but that's about it. But why does your heart always race when you're with him? When he's in your presence, why do you get excited butterflies in your tummy or feel nervous? You wiped your brow as you dragged yourself up to your room for a nap.

You're starting to get a headache. Your mother would be devastated if she found out you were passed over for the manager position. You recognised today that your time at Min Ent. Busan was coming to an end.

Why is your life so monotonous and boring? You developed a five-point bucket list for the year and have accomplished none of them. You didn't have time to create a friendship. After graduation, your university bestfriend returned to Thailand. You haven't heard from her in a long time. Nothing appears to make you happy, and you can't recall when you were exhilarated by life. For you, everything seems to be repetitive.

Then you heard your mother's voice calling your name. She came from the city. You strolled back to the living room after turning around.

"Wow, eomma, you look amazing!" You have an appreciative expression on your face when you gaze at your mother. She had a professional appearance. Her hair is perfectly styled.

"Hello, darling, I got a call from my lawyer," your mother said, grinning and hugging you."  We were successful in our case. The court dismissed his ex-wife's complaint. She has no basis. They were married out of community of property after she received a settlement from a divorce a few years ago. She signed a prenuptial agreement. As a result, you and I are both eligible for the $5 million estates. The house belongs to us. You own all of your father's albums and music rights. "We're free, baby." Your mother was in tears.

"Oh, my goodness!  At long last! Now, Mom, we'll be able to afford our own home! You can open a new pastry shop. Mom, I think we should move to Seoul or Ulsan. I'm delighted for you." You ecstatically took your mother's hands in yours and began bouncing up and down in delight.

"No more financial concerns, my baby; I can call my younger brother to take over your grandmother's home. He can now marry and take over the shop, allowing him to make a good living. Oh, my gosh. I'm willing to pay off your student loans. God has been very gracious to us." She tucked her hands under her chin and gazed into your teary eyes with pure delight.

"No, eomma, I will pay off my student loans myself. What are your plans for our Milwaukee, Wisconsin home?" As your mother led you to the sofa, you furrowed your brows.

Because your heart was overflowing with gratitude, you sat next to her. There will be no more financial difficulties. You and your eomma can now live a happy life. She can look forward to a new chapter in her life, a new era. Without your father's help, it wasn't easy. His death came as a shock to you, and you are suddenly free of those racist Boltons.  You'll never have to interact with that family again.

They have been shunning you and your mother for a long time. Your grandparents never truly loved you because you were an outcast. Your grandparents were more accepting of your father's ex-wife's daughter, whom she got by cheating on your father. They accepted them rather than the Korean woman your father loved with her tiny mixed-race daughter.

Your father's best memory will be your inheritance. He was concerned about you and planned his life around you and your mother. You loved him even more.

"How did your day go?" your mom looked at your tired face.

Your expressive eyes had black circles surrounding them.

"HORRIBLE!!!"You go over everything that happened today. The harassment, the new Team leader, your resignation, the unhappiness of your team, and Soo-attitude. Suga's chivalry is also remarkable. Mr Joo's harassment astounded your mother. She's thrilled that you'll be leaving the company.

"Suga seem to be an admirer of yours. Who else would risk his job for a girl he'd only met a day ago? I admire gentlemen like him." As you scrunch up your nose, your mother grins. "I don't believe he likes me that way. He's a bit aloof and distant, but he's a gentleman nonetheless." You chewed your lower lip as you reflected on his heroism. You suddenly feel a warm glow from how wonderful it felt to be in his arms.

Your mother has noticed a slight shift in your demeanour.

"Do you have feelings for Suga, baby?" your mother wants to know gently. As you flushed bright red, your eyes widened.

"No way, Eomma! W...where did you get that idea? I'm not his type.  Our new Team leader is smitten with him, and they even went on a lunch date together. And I haven't known him long enough to form affections for him. "You squealed, horrified.

Your mother laughed at your red face, which appeared shocked and bewildered.

"Your tone and the way you look say it all. It is not necessary to have known someone for ten years. There is a phenomenon known as "love at first sight." You seem to like his presence. I'm sure of it." She teases you, but the sadness in your eyes is visible. It's not amusing, but your mother already knew you'd fallen hard for this guy.

You pout and sigh, deflated. "Ah, yeah. Eomma, I like him, but it's a one-sided thing. It is better to forget about him completely. I'm not sure I'm his type. I seem to be attracting only jerks."

"Perhaps he likes you too—-" your eomma begins, but you interrupt her with a wave of your hands.

"—-Eomma, please no! I DO NOT WANT TO BUILD UP MY Hopes. I'm fed up with disappointments and betrayals." You say rapidly. Right now, all you want to do is state your goodbyes to Min Entertainment, find a new job, and pursue your aspirations of being a songwriter/composer. Your recommendation letters will not look good for a new job, as Suga stated. Sook and Ms Hwan will ensure that your evaluations and recommendations will be unfavourable. 

Your current bosses are so spiteful that working for Min Entertainment will always be a dream. You might be able to apply for jobs in the United States. Your mother will be cared for for the rest of her life; you can now live your own life and spread your wings. Your father had a lot of industry contacts that admired and respected him as a person and musician. Getting in touch with them could be beneficial to you.

Your mother then received a call that would forever impact your life.

You observe your mother's expressions alter in a split second while she talks on the phone. Suddenly, you noticed the light in her eyes.

"Thank you, thank you!"She screamed and threw her arms in the air with joy as she stared at you.

Her obvious delight catches you off guard.

"Oh, my goodness! It's just a parade of good news, baby. The house has just been sold, according to my real estate agent. I'm not forced to travel to America! She will email all of the documentation, and the bank will transfer the $ 750 000 after all deductions have been made. We'll be able to buy a new home with that money." She sat back on the sofas, her face beaming with gratitude.

That night in your house, there were tears of happiness. Around the house, you and your mother were singing and dancing.

You were so ecstatic that you looked online to hunt for real estate agents in Seoul and Ulsan.


After being interviewed about his daily observations, Yoongi exited the second level. He discussed the many departments as well as the necessary adjustments.

Po-Seok and Sugwon were the only ones in the locker room. They were already clothed in their clothing. He was still dressed in his black shirt and black jeans.

All he has to do now is get his backpack and return home. He is in dire need of rest.

"Suga boy," Po-Seok said with a smile as he looked up. "Are you on your way home?"

"Yes, Po," Suga said with a grin. " Would you like a ride home? I'm willing to drop you off."

"Ok, that's nice of you," Sugwon says. I also have a date tonight. Oh, life is good."

"Treat her right," Po-Seok says with a smile ".On your dates, avoid flirting with waitresses." He waggles his finger at Sugwon's smug expression.

"Who says it's a... her?" Sugwon chuckles.

With the "o"sound from their lips, Po and Sugas' eyes rise higher. They had no idea.

Sugwon burst out laughing at their stunned silence, "You should see your faces right now...just kidding. Tonight I'm having dinner with my Appa. He's coming from the island of Jeju. You are aware that I am from that area. My mother passed away a few years ago. I came to Busan in the hopes of finding an excellent job?"

Po -Seok scoffs as he shoves his shoulder." I almost thought you might have an eye on Suga boy!" he exclaims, laughing.

Sugwon grins and looks appreciative in Sugas's direction. "Now that I think about it, Suga is exactly my type.  Please marry me!" With mock-pleading yes, he folded his hands in a prayer mode.

After grabbing his things, Suga grinned and merely shook his head before locking his locker. Suga's scrunched up look made Sugwon and Po, and Sugas laugh.

"Where have all the ladies gone?" Suga inquired softly, his brows furrowed. After the meeting with the new Team leader, he hasn't seen Yeonra

"Oh, I just got word from Jihyo that Yeonra has officially resigned. She was not going to come back. Her contract is set to expire next week, "Sugwon informed them in hushed tones as if he were a conspirator.

Suga's brows furrow in disbelief as he learns that Yeonra is quitting Min Entertainment. If her abilities are correctly utilised, she will significantly benefit this organisation. He's perplexed as to why his heart is pounding.

He now realises how highly toxic the environment was for her. He wants to know why she isn't happy right now. It's almost as if she's up against something.

"It's understandable that the supervisory staff gave her a tough time. She and her mother might also relocate. Her father died a few years ago in an accident. She was having a hard time coping with his passing. What a poor little thing." Po Seok's tongue clicks.

Suga murmured, "Oh, I'm saddened to hear it." It's no surprise that she appears sad and withdrawn. He felt a strange emotion in his heart, which he quickly brushed aside. He can't let his feelings get in the way of his task. He's merely here to complete a mission. But he can't seem to get rid of his feelings. He realises that he genuinely cares about her.

He has never had this kind of awareness with any other woman in his life, and these strange feelings bother him.

The guys were finished, and the three of them walked out of the locker room and into the building, conversing about their lives. Suga smiles quietly to himself. He grew fond of these gentlemen. They are straightforward and down-to-earth.

Suga felt an affinity with the working class for the first time. He realised that humans are just people who want to be happy after. He realised that people merely want to be happy and discover their purpose and pursuits in life after a reality check.

When you're born with the silver spoon, it's easy to judge poor people until you've walked a mile in their shoes...
