MINA'S POV

"No." I answered and I saw how both of their eyes widen. I smirked, "Soon." Just a little tease would do, right? Sorn gasped from what she heard while I saw how Seulgi's face turn dull. It's not that I would want to be Noodle Boy's little girlfriend. I just want to actually tease Seulgi since seeing her annoyed face is fun.

"What a jerk." Sorn said. "It's just like yesterday, he's still with Seulgi and now he's courting you already? A jerk!" Her voice raised a little. She continued on ranting until Seulgi stood up.

"I remembered that I'll be doing something later." Seulgi smiled at Sorn only which didn't surprise me at all. She took her bag and thanked for the food. She looked at me before bidding a good bye to Sorn. She didn't even bother waving at me which is not much of a big problem anyway.

"We don't have take home seatworks earlier, tho." Sorn said and munched on the muffin. She looked at me with a curious look, "What she's up to?" She asked.

I shrugged my shoulders, "I don't know."

I stared at the shopping bags in front of me and sighed. I'm wondering where did he get such money to buy these branded clothes. I don't know if he asked for his parents a huge amount of wealth just to buy these or if it came from his own pocket.

I decided to throw myself to bed instead and open my phone. As soon as I opened it, I received a text message from Hyorin unnie that says that Mr. Yixing is looking for me. As much as I wanted to say no, I still didn't say anything because I might lose a job. It must not happen.

I got up from my bed and took my purse before fleeing. Sorn caught me while she's watching the television at the living room. She must've noticed that I'm leaving, so she asked me where am I going. "I'm just going to pick up some things at the grocery shop." I lied. She doesn't actually know that I became a harlot at the same place where her brother is working as well. We're almost the same age and letting her see me as a prostitute is pretty shameful and embarrassing.

She nodded and told me to take care of myself well before I flee. I thanked her and stepped outside of the unit, but when I did, I was welcomed by Noodle Boy outside. There's this bench in front of the unit and he's sitting at that spot. He's holding a book and is reading and I bet he noticed me through his peripheral view.

His head slowly turned up. He smiled and put the book beside him. "Hi," he waved his hand.

My eyebrows met instantly, but I decided to pay him no attention instead. I continued walking until I heard his voice again.

"Where you goin'?" He asked. I turned around just to see him standing with a smirk on a face and his two hands inside his pockets.

I raised a brow, "Why do you care?" I asked and then I heard him chuckle. I think that chuckle is the worst and most unpleasant chuckle that I've ever heard in my whole life. He walked towards me and grinned which I found so weird. He looks like some maniac and it totally reminded me of that dickhead who raped me. I decided to look away and turned my back on him. I was about to make a step on the stairs when I felt his warm hand around my wrist.

I immediately took it back, "Don't touch me." I told him seriously. I want him to feel threatened of what I just said. His smirk faded right away. He let go of my wrist and took a step back.

"Sorry..." he whispered. I can tell that he was shocked of how I acted. I continued pacing down until I reached the ground floor of the apartment. I walked towards the bus stop and waited. It's somehow 6 PM and my shift actually starts at 8 PM.

I don't know why Jimin's shocked face continues to reoccur inside my head. It felt like he's so sorry after grabbing my wrist. It felt like he's guilty of what he did. His eyes tell me something I cannot read, but I sure felt that he's frightened and shocked of my actions.

I ran towards the bus since it just stopped by the bus stop. I had to squeeze myself in just to get in. I don't care if I'd have to stand up since the bus is pretty full. There are about 7 or 8 people that are standing as well and most of them are women. They're wearing low heels and some are high heels. It looks like they just finished work and seeing these buff gentlemen sitting makes my feminist side heat up. How can they resist seeing these ladies stand up in a moving bus?

I saw guy, wearing a grey shirt, checking out this lady in black dress and black pumps. She wasn't aware that a guy is looking at her ass while she's typing something in her phone.

There's this old lady who is standing as well, but no young man even cares. They just let her stand there while they check out some of the standing ladies as well. If no one is going to do something about this, then I guess I'd have to instead.

"Hey," I called the guy but instead of him, other people looked at me. "You! The guy in grey!" He wasn't paying attention to me, so the man beside him had to pat him just to notice me. Everybody inside the bus actually looked at me, but yeah, I still don't care.

His eyebrows crossed, "What do you want?" He asked.

"Can you stop checking her out?" I asked which made him fluster, but he denied it. "That doesn't make you any more manlier." He raised a brow, but didn't say anything. Gosh, do I have to raise his ass up?

"What do you want me to do then?"

"Let the lady sit down." I told him. "Ya'll so fucking loud when you don't get a seat and be mad about it when you won't even lend a seat for the other people." A lot of people started reacting after what I said. Most of them nodded while some didn't care.

He gritted through his teeth and stood up, "Then here's your seat, miss." He even gestured his hands like he's inviting me to sit down. His voice is very sarcastic and his face is so annoying. The people waited for my decision whether I'm going to sit down or not, but that's too late.

"I don't need that anymore." The bus stopped and I had to exit now since this is my stop. I turned my back on him and hopped off from the bus as I make my way to the bar.

I saw Hwasa unnie by the doors and when she saw me, she smiled so widely. It's just 6 PM yet there's a lot of people lining up already. I guess this is the most popular bar in the town.

"Mr. Zhang have been waiting for you." We walked in and I was welcomed by the cigarette smoke and the laser lights that it almost blinded me. Hwasa unnie guided me towards Mr. Zhang's office and when we stood in front of the door, she told me that she can't come in since I was the only person that was requested to be there.

She smiled to make me feel assured, so I smiled back and knocked before entering. The first thing that I smelled inside was the smoke from his vape. He's smoking that as I entered and when our eyes met, he told me to sit down, so I did.

He stood up and paced back and forth inside his office. I think he's mad because I said that I'd quit as a cocotte.

"Miss Mina," I felt his presence behind my back which made my back shiver instantly. I felt his warm and sickening breath against my ear. "I haven't had my night with you yet."

Oh, fuck.
