"When you make a mistake, respond to yourself in a loving way rather than a self-shaming way."
_______________________________________

It was now Tuesday, the second day of working at 'Faceless' as an assistant.

Which actually, didn't feel like you were an assistant.

Reminding yourself at the films and dramas you've watched, you had the gist that the boss and the assistant worked hand in hand everyday.

Afterall, the assistant was there to assist.

Yet here you were, answering calls to confirm availability and booking people in for appointments and just what a normal receptionist would do.

They did say this job was easy and you knew why now.

You wore the uniform that was given to you yesterday and kept the turtle neck on. There was no way you were going to take it off and be a freak show for everyone to see.

Especially in a place where looks is everything.

Sighing to yourself, you leaned back in your office chair to change positions.

Solid two hours had flown by without anything interesting to have happened. Not even a phone call had came through in the last half hour.

You already tried playing simple games on your PC like Minesweeper and sudoku.

Even they didn't help with your boredom for awhile.

You knew it was bad manners to go on your phone during work but, you may even result to it if it came to it.

RING!

"AH!-" You clasped your hand over your mouth and hoped that the CEO didn't hear you.

Seeing no signs of the door opening, you answered the telephone after clearing your throat.

___

"'Faceless' speaking,
how may I help?"

"This is Mr. Kim speaking
from LY. I need to book an appointment to speak
with the CEO?"

"What day and time
are you wanting?"

"...tomorrow at 11:45AM"

"Alright...yes, Mr. Min
should be free at that time.
I'll put you in to
the system now"

"Well that was easy...
thank you for that"

"No problem. I'll send you a
reminder tomorrow
morning about the
appointment"

___

Strange, he sounded surprised that you were able to make an appointment for him.

Shrugging your shoulders, you began to type an email that will send to Mr. Kim's mobile tomorrow morning until you heard the door open for the first time that morning.

Scared, you abruptly stood up upon sight of the masked CEO who this time wore a black hoodie and black jeans.

His hair was a little messy and looked like he had just woken up.

"G-Good morning, CEO Min!" You bowed once he reached a close enough distance.

He didn't even notice you until you spoke up, making him look over at you with serious eyes.

The mysterious male scanned your body like he usually did and proceeded to sigh.

"I hate repeating myself. Take off that turtle neck" and just like a shadow, he disappeared in to the darkness and towards the elevator.

As soon as the doors closed behind him, you gasped for air and leaned against the desk.

You didn't know why you were so nervous around him. Perhaps that you couldn't see his face made it even more uncomfortable to you.

At least this time you could see more of his eyes but, even that wasn't enough for you to feel like he was human.

You'd have to be careful around him or just avoid him altogether if you wanted to keep this job.

The clock showed that it was nearing lunch time and you couldn't be even more happy to escape the shadow floor.

----------------------cafeteria----------------------

Many of the staff came here to eat while a few others went out to get other kinds of food.

From experience, canteen food wasn't the best.

Yet, how could they make it look like 5 star quality?

You had to go out to eat yesterday since they didn't have you on the system yet but today you could finally enjoy the food they provided to only their staff.

Walking over to the buffet area, you grabbed a plate and began adding food. There were all kinds that they were offering; Asian delicacies, Middle Eastern quinine, western snacks- they had it all.

And after what happened before, you needed some comfort food pronto.

Out of excitement, you wanted to try everything and proceeded to add everything to your plate.

You even reached a point where you even may need to get a second plate to pile the food on.

"Y/N!" You froze before turning around to see someone waving at you.

It was none other than the red haired photographer.

"Sit with us!" Noticing that he wasn't alone, you scanned the table to see two others. Neither of which you wanted to see right now.

Sighing to yourself, you knew it was bad manners to reject such an offer, especially to your senior at work so you shuffled on over.

"Woah! Someone is hungry!" Hoseok laughed once he saw the food mountain in your hands.

Embarrassed, you regretted being greedy and to make such a fool out of yourself in front of them.

"Let the girl eat as much as she want, she won't be able to come back here any time soon" Taehyung chuckled, finding this all amusing to him.

"I think she'll be able to stay for two weeks" Jimin smirked knowingly over at his best friend. The silver haired male caught on to the message as he responded accordingly.

"₩50,000 that she'll leave by the end of this week"

"Deal" rolling your eyes, you didn't bother to argue with them since you had other things to be more worried about.

Upon closer inspection, you noticed that they were wearing different outfits from yesterday.



They weren't as bright like they were yesterday but my oh my where they gorgeous still.

Just like that, you stuck out like a sore thumb and not just at the table you sat at but, within the whole cafeteria.

Hoseok noticed your slight frown and watched as you tried to curl yourself in embarrassment.

Suddenly, the sound of a cup falling on to the table and the juice spilling caught your attention as you looked over to see Hoseok's shirt now had red stains on it.

"Are you okay?!" You asked while taking the napkins and tried to stop the juice from going on to his pants.

Taehyung and Jimin looked over with their jaws hanging as they knew how expensive his clothes were.

"The clothes!"

"They're ruined!" The photographer laughed at this and gestured for you to stop.

"It's okay, don't panic. Just got a little clumsy" Jimin tilted his head at this.

"But you're literally a perfectionist?"

"Are you seriously not stressing over the fact that a ₩2million shirt has been stained?! In my presence?!" It was as if he was watching his child who was in pain right before his eyes.

Your eyes widened upon hearing the price and Hoseok's face remained unchanged.

"I'll get you another shirt-"

"It's not a big deal, I'll just continue working in this" he interupted the blonde.

"But people will stare at you" Jimin continued, knowing how judgey people (like Taehyung) can be in this industry.

"They can stare all they want, it's not like they're close to me or anything" it was as if Hoseok was only talking to you even though he was facing Jimin.

His words really made you feel better for some reason, like you weren't the only one who would get stared at.

"Oop- trouble at three o'clock-"

"Ugh I'm having such a bad day, don't ask about it" another person exclaimed after dropping his plate on the table and sitting in annoyed manner.

You realised it was the same model from yesterday that your guide and sister both called 'asshole' but he goes by the name of Kim SeokJin... the asshole.

He was dressed way too over the top but maybe it was normal for the model.

The table were glad to not ask about it as they didn't care nor did they want to hear him ramble on.

Jin was angered by this.

"...well if you must know, I still can't find my pink princess" the others sighed and you watched Taehyung grab some napkins to stuff in his ears.

"And by pink princess you mean the random girl you slept with who left without leaving her name or number?" Hoseok mocked, finding it amusing to hear such a thing happen to the model.

That's when you coughed on air once you realised who he was talking about.

The whole table looked over at you in confusion and you quickly shook your hands reassuringly.

"Sorry, *cough* ate too fast" you felt awkward under their gazes but they finally redirected their attention.

"There must be a reason as to why she left me without saying anything... perhaps she cared about my reputation and wanted to keep us a secret" Jin held a hand over his chest as he realised his princess was so caring.

"Oh yeah definitely, she wanted to keep it a secret alright" Jimin added before drinking his water with knowing eyes.

"Hey, she was at the party, maybe she knows the girl?" Hoseok suggested once he remembered that you were there.

You froze as their eyes laid on you once again and Jin was extremely hopeful for you to know.

"Do you?" Not wanting to expose your sister, you immediately shook your head no.

"N-no sorry, I came alone..."

"But you told me you were looking for your sister?" Jimin retaliated. Thankfully, the bell went off to signal the end of lunch.

"I gotta go! Scary Min will kill me if I'm late!" And with that, you ran off.

"...did she just call Yoongi, Scary Min?" Taehyung asked in disbelief before laughing along with Jimin and Jin.

Hoseok looked over his shoulder to see you running out and couldn't help but chuckle at your nickname for your boss.

----------------------night time--------------------

"...6! I can roll again!" You groaned once you saw that your sister was so close to winning the board game.

"Just take my brownies, I admit defeat" you whined before throwing over the box of store brownies.

It was a shame really, you really wanted to some comfort food right around now especially after working today.

Canna was giddy as she took the box of brownies and began to chow away at them.

Not wanting to see your prized possessions being eaten, you were about to leave until your sister stopped you.

"Wait! You forgot your participation prize" Confused, you looked to the side to see her holding a bag. Intrigued, you reached to grab and looked inside to see a piece of clothing.

Reaching in you realised it was a turtle neck but not like the ones you owned.

This one was white with silver jewels around along with thin silver chains across the chest.

"Since you work at a fashion company, I thought I'd buy you this to make you feel more comfortable and maybe your boss will leave you alone once he sees how much of a fashionista you are" you couldn't help but let your mouth stretch in to a wide smile before you ran over to hug your sister.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you! You're the best! Well, except for your troublesome ways but-"

"Hey!" The two of you laughed and continued to play board games for the rest of the night.
