"Mr. Kim!! It's time for the meeting. Everyone is waiting for you." A man knocked on the door of office gaining Mr. Kim's attention who was working on his laptop.

He stand up watching the time on his smart watch saying, "Yes!! I'm coming."

The door of meeting room opened revealing the CEO of 'Kim Perficient Limited'. "Good evening Mr. Kim" Everyone stand up bowing to him.

He nods as he made himself sit along with others. His secretary, Mr. Choi Woo-shik stands infront of everyone and the large screen called projector.

"As everyone knows the purpose of this meeting. We will start it now." He begins the meeting showing some files and application on the screen and explaining them.

"Mr. Choi, You selected some top most applications, explain us that." Mr. Kim said.

"Yes sir!!" He said as he opens a new application and some details.

"This is.... who wants us to invest in their organisation." He continues. "and this application is from 'Euphoria NGO', who works for children welfare." Everyone pays attention, as Mr. Kim too.

"Though, they work for only children, but their last year profits were too high. It is an Non-profit organization but they still they stand out in market. Their motive is just to do well being for children. They have sent so many students to foreign for further studies and so many have achieved higher education in S. Korea. They even helped in the treatment of numerous of disabled children or children having disorder." He pause for a second scanning everyone's face.

Everyone started discussing something while Mr. Kim had a serious face, not even looking at others he was just too much into the information.

"That's all. These applications are the all in which we can invest. I selected out the best according to me, based on their details." He completes his presentation as he sit with others as left front side of his boss.

"I think the Euphoria NGO has been doing a great work." The employees and managers started discussing. "Hmm according to Mr. Choi explanation, we should invest in their organisation."

"Mr. Choi, hand me their application." Mr. Kim said as he take a look of them and also checked throughout the details.

"So.... you're sa........" He tried to continue but cut off by his phone rings. He rejects the call saying "sorry" to others. As he started the phone vibrates again. He rejects it once more.

"So where were w......" he again cut off by Mr. Choi's phone rings. Mr. Choi looks at Mr. Kim for permission to take the call or not as Mr. Kim nods knowing who's calling him.

"Excuse me!!" Mr. Choi said going to the corner of room, but the room was silent even his footsteps and whispered can be heard in that room.

"Hell......"
"Woo-shik, Where is he? How dare he rejected my call? Give him the phone right now." Cut off by the lady as she yelled from the phone.

Everyone looks at Mr. Choi hearing the yell, who was smiling embarrassingly at everyone and tried to handle the situation. "Mrs. Kim, we are in mee......" again cut off by her. "I don't care, give him the phone right now." He sighs giving up as he walks to Mr. Kim.

"Mr. Kim!! She wants to talk with you." He said handing him his phone. Mr. Kim looked at him nervously as he gulps and cleared his throat before speaking. "Eomma!!" He said in a low voice.

"Don't you dare to trick me. Haven't I told you what is today? Their family must be waiting for us." She almost yell again gaining everyone's attention. Mr. Kim arched his one furrow, a lil bit embarrassed but he can't talk back to his mom.

"Eom......." Again cut off.
"I'm not listening you. Once you will get married, I won't disturb you like this again and again. Come to pick me as soon as possible, without wasting any time." She said and cut off the call without listening him.

He glare at Mr. Choi who stand there innocently while everyone just get to know that the CEO, who is known for his passion and hardwork, and how mature and serious he is for his work just get scolded by his mother. They all were lil embarrassed not knowing how to react.

Mr. Kim cleared his throat saying, "We will continue the meeting tomorrow, until then take a look at every application and Mr. Choi, Keep Euphoria NGO's application on my table, I will take a look on that later." He leaves the room.

"Eomma!! Why you have to embarass me like that?" He says while he was driving his car, bluetooth in his ear.
"Yeah!! I'm on my way. coming..." he said and cut off the call.

He continues driving as his car stops in the middle of road, He get out of it seeing the perforation in the tyre of his car. He sighs calling a mechanic. He will get here anytime so he decide to look around.

That Seoul streets are always busy but clean, He see an ice-cream seller and CVS near him. He move his gaze as he realise there is Park along side the road. He looked their seeing a female figure.

A fascinating view catch his attention. He looks at the view with not so special expression.
*Kids giggling*

Number of children playing there leading by a young girl who is blowing bubbles for them. They all giggle and play running behind the bubbles. The young girl giggles too watching the kids.

Mr. Kim looks at them with not so pleased look but he tries to see the face of the girl, as the girl was about to turn to him but...

"Mr. Kim!! You called me?" He looks back seeing the mechanic.
"Yeah!! Look after this car." He said pointing towards it. "It's only a puncture!!" The machanic says and Mr. Kim nods saying, "I know."

The mechanic take his time to replace the tyre. As Mr. Kim looks back seeing her disappearing. Only children were their playing all alone.
"Kiddos!!" He scoffs.

****

"Yeah Appa!!" A young girl speaks picking up her phone.
"When will you come here? You know they must be here soon. Just come on time Y/n without letting them wait." His father says from the phone.

"Don't worry. I'll there on time Appa!!" She said cutting the call.

She calls someone else, "Ms. Shin Ha-ri!! Where are you?" "Can you please take care of them." "I am in hurry." She says as she cut the call and soon a Ms. Shin arrive there.

"Thankyou so much for coming. Just take them back an I'm sorry but I have to go." She says in a hurry as she bows and leave them immediately taking her purse. 

She hurriedly sits in the car, as she starts driving. She first stop at the mall, making her way towards it. She picks some nice dresses. Trying three four dresses, she finally decides one as she clicks mirror photo of herself.

Is it nice?

Very nice!!
Come fast,  they
are almost here.

She sends message to her sister. She smiles and also picks a matching side bag with that. And finally she pays and sits in the car halfly running.

She stops infront of the big restaurant, 'Hyungsung Restuarant, Seoul'. She sees and sets her hairs looking in the mirror of her car applying a lip balm on her lips and does some touch up. She's simple but still manage to look cute.

"Where is she?" A lady sitting infront of her family asks.
"Miahne!! She's a little bit late." Her Mom apologies.
Her sister is lost in the man sitting beside the lady.

The man checks the time in his watch being frustrate as he get up, "I'm sorry. I have to make a urgent call. Please excuse me." He says before disappearing.

"Work comes first. Well, My son is so punctual. He doesn't like people being late." The lady says with a awkward smile defending her son.

Y/n enters the restaurant as Mr. Kim and she passes by side by side in opposite way without giving a look to each other. She makes her way to her parents.

She bows infront of them and to the lady saying, "Anneyong Haseyo!! I'm sorry for being late, something stucked me up." She regains her breathe.

"Mrs. Cheong!! She's your elder daughter? Ms. Cheong Y/n?" The lady asked. "Ye!! Mrs. Kim. What happened?" Her Mom asked.

"She's so pretty and adorable." Mrs. Kim says as the tensed environment release a sigh of warmness as everyone smiles. Mrs. Kim stand up making her sit next to herself on her son's seat.

She delightfully take the seat giving them warm smile. They started talking and giggling asking about some random things while Y/n just smiled nervously sitting their.

"I liked your daughter so much" she says as her son joins them after a call. "I'm Sorry!! It was an urgent call." He says.

"It's okay!!" Mr. Cheong stated.
"Taehyung!! She's Y/n. Ms. Cheong Y/n, elder daughter of Mr and Mrs. Cheong." His mother tells him as he looks at her while she was nervous to make an eye contact.

"Looks like she listed herself in your like list, and already took my place. Don't know when this chair will be replaced by your heart." He says as he never likes her mother loving someone else more than him. "N-no!! I-its not like this." she says nervously. Everyone chuckled at their first awkward interaction.

"Don't be like this Taehyung. Sit beside her." His Mom says as he does. "So Y/n, Do you work anywhere?" Mrs. Kim asked.
She fiddles with her dress  before replying, "I- I work in a company." She says as her parents watch her lying.

"Which company?" Taehyung asks. "I- " She looks at him nervously. "A C-company of my friend, 'Park Enterprises'." She says knowing that her friend is the CEO of Park Enterprises and he won't go to check on him, if he will go so she can manage.

Her parents watch her suspiciously lying to them. As Taehyung too furrows at her suspicious tone. "Taehyung is also a CEO of Company. He works a lot. Sometimes you will get pissed off by his workaholic habits. But I know he is really good by heart and will take care of you." Mrs. Kim said smilingly assuring her as Y/n smiles back nervously.

"Shouldn't we give them time to talk alone?" Mrs. Kim says as Mr. and Mrs. Cheong nodded nervously with a forced smile.

"Taehyung!!" She looks at him as he gets up making his way. She pats Y/n's back saying, "Go with him." She stand up nervously.

They both head to the lawn area facing a beautiful fountain. She haven't talk, as he stays quiet too. "You must have so much to ask then why are you quiet?" He asks breaking the silence.

She looks at him nervously saying, "Um.. not really." "I think we should say yes to this marriage." He says. She looks at him with frown asking, "you have nothing to ask?" "Not really." He replies. He is really not interested in getting married but doing it because of her Mom's will. She chuckles at his same response.

They came back together. "So it's a Yes or No?" Mrs. Kim asks. "Do you like her?" He asks. "A lot." everyone chuckles at her mom's excitement. "Then it's a yess!!" he smiles too for the first time, A rare smile. While Y/n just looks at him and adores his smile.

"Y/n...??" She snapped back by her sister as everyone looks at her waiting for her response. She realise that she was looking at him smilingly as he looks down noticing her and now waiting for her response.
