"Listen, I'll go on that date you said we should go on." Minji moaned as Sochun kissed between her breasts. He then kissed underneath her ears; he was going close to dangerous territory. She had very sensitive ears, so she always made sure she was the one in control, not the person being controlled. She grabbed his hair and guided his lips back to hers. Sochun's tongue flicked the top of her mouth, and it sent shivers down her spine. He had his hands on both sides of her head, and he trailed kisses down the side of her jaw. "I'll even cook your favourite meal."
"Is that right..." He responded very seductively into her ears.
"So introduce me to your dad." Minji moaned back into his ears.
Sochun chuckled and kissed her cheek. "Good thing I don't have a favourite meal. No deal." He smiled coyly at a hot and bothered Minji.
"Fine, have it your way." She reached down to unbuckle his trousers.

"Yes?" Doona answered quizzically. What was this woman talking about now? She thought."Then the gentleman with the nice face you mentioned, he returned it back to you?" Mrs. Matron continued to drink her eyes, not looking up at Doona."So?" Doona was getting tired of the lady and her roundabout questions."Just use that man's shower." Mrs. Matron turned her face to look up at Doona, with a coy smile on her face.---"What! No way!" Doona exaggeratedly screamed at the woman. Mrs. Matron covered her ears and winced."I'm surprised no one has complained about how loud you are. You're bursting my poor eardrums." Mrs. Matron then took another swig from her beer can, then she burped really loudly and tossed the empty can behind her. She leaned over to her right and picked up another beer can. "Listen Doona, you should get on your way to use that man's shower." Mrs. Matron said. Doona had not told her t
Doona let out a loud sigh... "No, you idiot, you sound like a weirdo." I need to sound more natural, Doona thought to herself. "Ok... Hello Chiiihuuuun." She paused and rested her head on the wall because she sounded so cringy. "At this point, I won't need his shower because I'll be out here forever." She rose back up to her feet for one more practice. You can do this Doona, she thought."Hello, Chihun...." As she began to speak, the door clicked and swung open. Doona panicked and bent her head over, and immediately screamed. "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. Please let me use your shower!""What?" Chihun adjusted his glasses. Doona looked up at him...."Um... Shampoo," she pointed at her head. "Shower?" She pointed at Chihuns apartment.---Against my better judgment, I let her in, Chihun thought to himself. Chihun was getting something from the fridge when he heard babbling outside his door, w
An unforeseen realization had just settled in her mind...I have to get naked in a man's apartment, Doona squealed to herself. Never! I am not going to do that, she cringed."Don't worry. The towel is brand new." Chihun noticed Doona was staring very intently at the towel and thought she did not want to use it because it was his. "I'v never used it. Promise." He tried to convince her, but Doona snapped her face back to his and muttered very erratically."I'm not going to use your shower... I'm n-not going to...." Doona's face was so red she could burst.---Chihun looked at her confused, then his brows furrowed. "What's wrong with this lady?" He muttered to himself. He turned to push the couch compartment back into place, and then sat back on the sofa. "Then leave. I'm not into forcing women to shower." Chihun grumbled his response at Doona.I offer her a shower that 'she' asked me for, t
"Hey, are you ok..." Chihun tried to speak to Doona, but she had run to the next door and shut herself in. Chihun let out an exhausted breath. "I hope she has no brothers." He groaned. Chihun then turned his gaze to the door Doona had tried to open, and he placed one hand against the door. His eyes crinkled, and his brows furrowed..."I really need to get rid of her things and move on," Chihun muttered underneath his breath. Then Chihun fished for the keys in his pockets and pushed the key into the keyhole; he flicked it to the left and locked the door. He stepped back into his room and tossed his keys on the bed. "I say that all the time anyway." He muttered to himself.---Doona creaked the bathroom door open and was met with the warm, delicious smell of a home-cooked meal. She looked around the hallway, but Chihun was not in his room, so she walked back to the living area. She looked around the space, but he was no
"Because my mum always eats my food," Doona responded, looking away from Chihun. Doona's mother had a bad habit of eating quickly and sneaking some of Doona's food; so she had built the habit of eating her meals before her mother could get her hands on it. Why do I have to be embarrassed like this? Doona thought, do normal people just tell you straight to your face that you eat like a chipmunk? She wanted to run away, but she genuinely was still starving.Chihun rubbed the back of his neck, "that sounds like a nightmare."Chihun pushed his chair back and walked to the kitchen. "I have some beer and apple juice." He called at her as he opened the fridge. Doona picked up the fork and stabbed at the sausage in her plate."Beer, please." She grinned as she continued to stuff her cheeks.---Chihun had insisted on Doona eating as much as she liked. He told her that he was not all that hungry, so Doona let loo
"That's not what I meant." Chihun waved off her answer, dismissing her smile."Oh..." Doona responded, she started twiddling her fingers around. "I don't have any money currently, but I will-" She was caught off by a laugh that erupted from Chihun. He had a very warm laugh, Doona thought. His cheeks flushed a very slight red as he chuckled into his palms."I wouldn't even know how much to charge you for the water in the shower." Chihun did not know what came over him, he rarely laughed, and he never laughed this hard. So maybe the cause of his outburst was because he had just drunk too much, or maybe, it was because of the flustered woman sitting across from him, pouting and puffing her cheeks like a chipmunk. "...cute."---Doona placed her stool down by the window in her bedroom. She then leaned over and picked up the curtains that were in her moving boxes. She gently stepped on the stool and rose up to reach
"I would like to help you, but I'm a busy person. Between school and work, I don't have time for frivolities." He brushed past her, but as he was about to depart from the aisle, he heard Miri call out to him."Making friends isn't a frivolity." Miri clenched her fists with determination, but when Chihun paused in his tracks she panicked; she thought maybe he would get angry at her, but Chihun sighed then walked off.Miri, people are a frivolity I can not afford. "Sorry," Chihun thought to himself as he smiled at a random customer.---Doona had missed school for almost a month and a half now, and she knew she would be getting emails from all her professors about her poor attendance. But that was not really on her mind rather she was more worried about her mother. Doona's mother had found out that she had not yet met with Mr. Paek, and she called her last night to shout her ears off; she was very angry with Doon
"Fine." Chihun wiped his hands on the kitchen cloth and peaked into the oven to check on it. Everything was cooking perfectly, so he turned back to Doona, who was smiling giddily on the couch like a child. "Can you go take your shower, or do you need help with that too?" Chihun folded his arms and cocked his head at Doona. She quickly rose up off the couch and blushed as she briskly paced to the bathroom."What are you even saying... You're not cute at all, dammit. Pervert." Doona muttered, sporadically as she marched to the bathroom; then she slammed the door and locked it loudly."You aren't cute either." Chihun opened a drawer and reached for his cigarette pack.---"They are hiring at the Grocery store where I work." Chihun yawned while he flipped through a novel. Doona turned away from her third plate to look at Chihun on the couch. When he darted his eyes to look at her, she quickly looked away. "But how
"I was still hungry. So I'll order a late-night snack." Doona smiled shyly. She didn't want to admit that she was just a fat ass. "What about the email thing you wanted to do?" Doona got up to stare at an infuriated Chihun. "After we transform this dump into an apartment." He walked over to grab a trash bag. "You said it wasn't that bad." Doona cried out in embarrassment. "If you are Shrek, then it should fit you just right." Chihun chuckled dryly as he walked over to the oven. He looked carefully at it and assumed she must have hidden more boxes in there, so he reached to pull down the handle. --- Doona spotted Chihun at the oven, her eyes widened in horror, and she screamed. "Don't ope
"Really? Will you help me? Awesome!" Doona took a swig of her leftover champagne and rose to her feet. "Let me grab my laptop from my apartment. I'll be down soon." Doona strutted to the door, and Chihun called out to her."Maybe I should follow you." Doona turned around to see Chihun gracefully getting up from the table. His tight shirt stretched and contracted against his muscled skin; he picked up his hoodie and tossed it on, then he ran his slender fingers through his hair and began to walk towards Doona. The closer he got to her, the more her breath hitched."N-no you can't come!" Doona swung the door open quickly and ran towards the elevator. Chihun stared at her racing away from him, and the sides of his lips curled up.---Chihun used the stairs
"We were beating around the bush?" Sochun laid back on the couch and kicked his legs on the rest while crossing his hands behind his head."How's your sex life?" Dr. Mo dipped her pen in ink once again and positioned it above her notebook."Fantastic. On Monday, this model and I did it at the movies-" Sochun began speaking, but Dr. Mo let out a cough that cut him off."With Song Minji. Your girlfriend?" Dr. Mo added, and Sochun's expression twisted.---Chihun stared across his dining table to look at Doona struggling to open the champagne. She retorted to bitting the cork with her teeth like an animal. Chihun let out a sigh, and a yawn escaped. "Was this necessary?" He folded his arms on his broad chest."I've almost opened it." Doona huffed as she pulled on the cork on the bottle, but her hands kept slipping. "Just give me a second." She continued to bite at it. She looked back at Chihun, who wa
"I said yes, I want to contribute. Geez!" Doona yelled at Chihun before he could complete his sentence. Then she let out a huff and started stomping off. "For someone who is really smart, you can't even read body language..." Doona continued to shout as she stormed off. "Wear your glasses and stop pestering me." She got to an intersection and stopped, but she continued to tap her feet furiously. Chihun was initially surprised by her outburst, but he let out a chuckle at how frustrated she got.You shouldn't hold back with me, Chihun thought. "Just complain like this." He muttered with a quiet smile, then walked to meet Doona, who was now crossing the street with a giant frown on her small face.---"How is the relationship between you and your partner?" Dr. Mo spoke to Paek Sochun as he fiddled with her faux plants on her window sill. Sochun turned around to look at her, raised his shoulders, and walked back to the co
Doona let out a loud laugh, and Miri stared at her, confused, "I'm sorry, you just said something funny." Doona giggled, and her frame shook while Miri continued to stare at her perplexed. "I don't think Chihun cares much for all people. He's cold to everyone." Doona continued to laugh and walked past Miri.Miri clasped her fingers around one of her pigtails, and she squeezed it. "How can you say that when he was looking at you like that?" Miri muttered to herself. Then she turned around to show Doona to the check-outstation.---That was a disaster, Doona kept fumbling the checkout machine, and not to mention every time a male customer approached her, she would flee for her life. For a practice shift, Doona took fifteen minute breaks for every thirty minutes of work; her only saving grace was that Miri had to do inventory and was barely paying attention to her messing up. Doona pushed the changing room door open and
"We are a popular grocery store and one in many chains of the same parent company, so there is barely any bureaucracy on this level, to be honest." Miri tapped her chin, and when they arrived at their destination, she pushed the door of the changing room open. "This is the woman's changing room. The one over there is for the men." Doona nodded in agreement. Miri handed Doona a vest and store shirt. Doona collected the articles of clothing from Miri and walked into the room, but before she could change her shirt, she stopped and turned around to face Miri. "Miri. How many men work here?" Miri paused to think and responded. "Fifteen currently." Doona gulped, and Miri turned to close the door behind her; she cocked her head and muttered. "What a weird question." --- Doona was excited about working at the cashier, but it had slipped her mind that her customers would both be men and women. When she stepped out
Doona tried to calm herself down, she had to get back into a headspace of safety, and serenity like her therapist told her to do every time she felt out of control. Doona then smacked her cheeks softly. She strutted past Chihun towards the grocery store and stood in front of the giant sliding doors. She could not fall back into that dark hole, where her mind ran rampant, and she feared everything; she had an important interview, and even though Chihun was a capital A-Asshole, he had helped her with her resume. Doona stepped closer to the doors, and they slid open. "Doona!" Chihun called out to her, and Doona turned to look at him. A warm smile spread on Chihun's face as he said to her, "you look fine." His smile made Doona brandish a peace sign and a large smile too. Holding the resume papers in her hands she walked into the store courageously. --- Doona and Chihun walked into the sore a few feet apart from one a
"Wait! Now?" She hurried to pack while her mind raced around batting questions left and right. She wondered what she would say during her interview. Was she even dressed appropriately for this impromptu meeting?"Yes now. Hurry up and get out, I need to turn everything off." Chihun swung his bag over his broad shoulders and wore back on his denim jacket. Doona hurried to zip her bag and rushed out the door. Chihun looked at where Doona was seated earlier, and he let out a sigh. "She left her pencil case." He reached down to pick it up and paused when he noticed there was a sticker of a woman's face on it. He slowly picked up the case in his hands, and after he observed the case, he sighed again. "So she's Minji's fan."---Knock! Knock! Knock!A stylish woman, holding a drink in a Steuben glass, looks up from her laptop. Her desk is dotted with folders and papers with profile images clipped to each corner. She
"Why do you have a section in your resume called background history?" He tapped on the table, and Doona sat back down. She was beginning to think that Chihun, for a lack of better words, freaking despised her resume.Doona responded shyly, "I thought that the hiring manager would-" but she was cut off again by Chihun, who selected everything in the word document. Doona's eyes widened when she realized what he was going to do. "Wait!" She yelled at him. Before emailing him her resume, he told her to delete all the copies on her laptop, she thought it was to avoid having copies of the same file, this was his plan all along."Delete." Chihun let out a breath of relief, and Doona's eyes widened at the horror.---"How could you do that, after you made me delete all my backups," Doona yelled so loud, the unknowing people that passed outside their study room flinched. Chihun did not pay any attention to her squeals &
