A mischievous man
The probability that he will come back to me
Around the middle of the meeting, Yeoju held Taehyun's hand until she started sweating. Unable to bear it any longer, Yeoju twisted her hand away and placed it on the desk, and Taehyun made a tearful face as if he were disappointed. Soon after, he typed something on his laptop, tilted it slightly, and showed it to Yeoju.
When Yeoju looked to see what was going on, she realized it was a request to hold hands. Yeoju neatly ignored it and continued the meeting, and eventually, it was her turn to present the concept plan. Yeoju took the meeting materials and stepped forward to speak.
Yeoju "It is currently the peak season for autumn foliage. With the fall colors, Armed Forces Day, National Foundation Day, and the Chuseok holidays coming up in succession..."
The female lead suggested that, in conjunction with the autumn and Chuseok holidays, they should combine a special offer event with matching magazines, mannequins, first-come-first-served events, giveaway events, and new store opening events. There was also an opinion that while these are all common, they could be a good choice for the public at a good time.
Taehyun: "I agree with everyone's opinion as well. It clearly feels clichรฉ, but it will come to the public as a familiar and good opportunity."
Yeoju: "Oh, and aren't we launching a new product soon? I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to hold a free tasting event to gauge the reaction."
Taehyun "Yes, that's good. You're the last one, right, Yeoju?"
Yeoju: "Yes, I am the last one."
Taehyun: "Then, please wrap up the report and decide on Yeoju's proposal for this meeting... We need one person for the field work next week, is there anyone who wants to come along?"
At Taehyun's suggestion, the pleasant atmosphere in the conference room turned cold, and when no one volunteered, Taehyun smiled and said.
Taehyun: "Then, since I'm stepping down... Assistant Manager Song, who usually manages the team, won't work out. They aren't interns either... Junior Manager won't work, so I guess the only option left is the Manager?"
Yeoju "Huh?... "
Damn it.
Taehyun "Is there a problem?"
If it were you, wouldn't you have one? Wouldn't you?
Yeoju: "Haha, of course not... I have to go..."
Should I pretend to be sick and back out? I absolutely do not want to fight this guy... but maybe just to prevent a disaster like today's?
Taehyun: "If by any chance you are sick, I will come to visit you."
Yeoju: "Of course, visiting..."
Taehyun "Then, shall we all go back to our seats and wrap up the work?"
All together "Yes~"
Everyone maintained their excited mood and headed outside, and Yeoju, seeing her teammates leave, was also about to pack her things and leave when a hand embraced her from behind the car. In the pitch-black conference room with the blinds drawn, a large hand approached and a hot breath touched the back of her neck, causing tension to rise in Yeoju's body.
Yeoju "W-what is it!"
Taehyun: "Being a deputy manager is tough, so I'm here to replenish my depleted energy."
Yeoju: "Then, quit immediately. If it's that hard..."
Taehyun: "I came to see you, so it's meaningless if you quit."
Yeoju: "Why are you looking at me? I don't like it, so let go immediately."
Taehyun immediately pulled away at Yeoju's words that he didn't like it, and Yeoju sat back down on the desk, spreading her arms and speaking.
Yeoju: "I told you it's hard, that's why I'm saying this... It has no meaning."
Yeoju reached out her arm toward Taehyun and spoke, and Taehyun took her hand, kissed it, then climbed onto her hand and snuggled into her arms, burying his face in her neck and kissing her repeatedly.

Yeoju: "Ugh... that tickles. It's just for comfort... not to satisfy my own desires... Can you take your mouth off me?"
Taehyun "... You're pretty and nice..."
Yeoju: "What am I supposed to do? Am I going to become ugly?"
Taehyun "Still, you're pretty."
Yeoju: "You didn't see it."
Taehyun "Just, by intuition..."
Yeoju: "What a funny guy."
Am I really allowed to be acting like this? I do love him, but we broke up... and this guy doesn't even love me...
Yeoju: "Get away now. This is enough."
Taehyun "... You still don't hate me, do you?"
Yeoju: "I've always disliked it. Today is just for a moment."
Taehyun "It might be just for a moment for you, but not for me."
Yeoju "... Go, get out."
Taehyun " ... "
Amidst the quiet atmosphere, Taehyun packed his bags and left. Outside, he told the employees who were working that there would be no overtime today and that everyone could leave on time.
Yeoju "... I have to go out too..."
I can't bring myself to leave. Weren't those just people dating?
Yeoju: "I know it's not allowed, but..."
I just want to love you, but... what can I do? I'm scared.

It was time to leave work, and just as almost everyone had packed their things and left, Yeoju was also about to pack her bags and leave. As Yeoju finished packing, Taehyun also turned off his computer, picked up his coat and bag, and walked outside first, followed by Yeoju.
Taehyun "... What are you doing after work?"
All the lights in the hallway were off except for one in front of the elevator, and Taehyun was the first to speak in the silence while quietly fiddling with his phone.
Yeoju: "Time to play."
Yeoju spoke to Taehyun while shaking the shopping bag, and Taehyun's eyes widened as he became anxious. Just then, the elevator door opened, Yeoju entered the elevator, and Taehyun followed her inside.
Bang _
Taehyun "Do you really have to go? Can't you just not go?"
Yeoju: "I was planning to go here since this morning, so not going would be a bit much."
Taehyun "... Why are you leaving? Let's play."
Yeoju: "With you? Are we close enough?"
Taehyun "... Yoon Yeo-ju... Don't go."
It's shaky, hold on tight.
Yeoju "... No, I'm going."
Taehyun "...Go with me."
Yeoju "... I don't like it. Then isn't that surveillance rather than playing?"
Taehyun "You can just go and hang out with me."
Yeoju: "I'm going to go and play with you."
Taehyun "Let's hang out and drink together at the bar."
Yeoju: "I'm going to dance."
Taehyun "Yun-yeo...! Are you going to do this?"
Yeoju "What?"
Taehyun "... You know I like you, and you're wavering too."
You really know me well... How did you know my heart was already weakened... and shake me this hard? Am I that easy?
Yeoju: "Am I wavering because of you? When?"
Taehyun "What?... "
Yeoju: "Don't get the wrong idea."
Ding - ))
Yeoju stepped out as soon as the elevator doors opened, and Taehyun got off but stared blankly at the floor, shedding sorrowful tears in drops like a wounded man...
