Beep beep beep-
Haa..! (Flash)
Taehyun woke up from his dream with a start.
widely.-
under...
It's that dream again... (sniff)
04:45 AM
...
It's an ambiguous time to fall asleep again
...ha.
It's always like this.
Ten years ago, after a car accident, I started having dreams about a younger version of myself that I don't remember.
The attending physician said that it could be post-traumatic stress disorder, an aftereffect of the accident.
But after waking up from the dream, I couldn't shake off this uneasy feeling for some reason.
I feel like I've forgotten something, something I shouldn't forget...

Knock knock knock knock.-
Chiiik.....-
..?
As Taehyun headed to the living room, he was awakened by an unfamiliar, careless sound coming from the kitchen.
Oh, you woke up early?
In the kitchen, Jiyeon was moving busily.
In hand, a busy frying pan and spatula, and wearing a light apron.
I didn't know you were leaving so early...
I should have prepared sooner.. Sorry..
...what are you doing?
yes?
At this hour of dawn... what...
Breakfast... I'm preparing it... right?
...
...ha,
I guess the lady didn't tell me properly...
Please don't do this again.
yes?
I don't eat breakfast.
...yes?
...why?
Is it because you have to leave early in the morning?
...sometimes, but usually I start work at 9 o'clock.
...Oh, I didn't know
I told Secretary Choi to give me my schedule.
..yes
Is this really the Kang Tae-hyun I knew?
I feel like I've gotten a bit colder than when I was younger...
So, are you going to work now?
No, I start work at 9 today.
ah..
Oh, then would you like to have breakfast now..!?
...'Kkugit'
Didn't I just say that?
I don't eat breakfast.
Taehyun was even colder than before.
..oh, yes
sorry
Why don't you eat breakfast?
Of the three meals a day, breakfast is the most important.
Then what about this... Director..?
Jiyeon glanced at Taehyun while looking at the food she was making.
...
...Either you eat it yourself or eat it with the staff.
Click.-
Weeeee...-
This is enough for me.
Taehyun left Jiyeon behind and stood in front of the coffee machine to make coffee.
...
I never thought I'd see this guy, who couldn't even put something bitter in his mouth, pouring coffee in front of me...
Well, I guess a lot of time has passed..
Your body, which was smaller than mine, had grown to the point where I was completely covered by you in the past ten years, and your once round and cute face had become a man with straight, dark lines.
...
...are you really okay with a cup of coffee?
...
...The housekeeper who came in this time has a lot of questions.
...ah.
Was I the only one who got excited?
I was so happy to see you 10 years ago that I felt more comfortable than usual without even realizing it.
Actually, you probably won't remember me...
sorry.
no.
It was my fault for not reporting even the smallest thing.
...
...are you being sarcastic,,
Well then, take care of it yourself.
From now on, you won't have to bother with breakfast.
Yes, sir
...
widely.-
Taehyun entered the room holding a cup of coffee.
...
Has this kid gotten more and more arrogant?
"What's your schedule like today?"
...
Meeting at 10am, need to check remaining payment documents.
And the afternoon family meeting... has been postponed to next week because Grandpa is not feeling well.
What about a family meeting... We're all blood relatives...
anyway..
Looks like that old man finally has somewhere to go...lol
Taehyun smiled bitterly.
...^^
by the way,
Secretary Choi
yes?
Bring me some of my housekeeper's workbook.
Right now?
Uh, I have something to check
all right.
widely.-
...
No matter how much I think about it, I feel like I've seen it somewhere...
...I think I said it was delayed,
That woman...
...
Knock knock knock...
Ugh..~
There wasn't much I could do about the already clean interior of the house, which didn't need much cleaning.
It's to the point where I wonder if there's any need to hire me.
Employee 1 | Jiyeon, take a break and do it haha
Oh, yes
Employee 1 | The director isn't the type to make a mess anyway, so there's not much to clean up.
Yeah... I think so..
If this is the case, I wonder why they hired so many employees.
Including me, there are five employees working at home...
This only includes the interior, and if you include the exterior garden, there must be over 10... no, 20 employees working inside the mansion.
Employee 2 | That's true haha
Employee 3 | Well, what do you think? We have a lot of money, so let's hire them~
Employee 3 | There are even worse people among the conglomerates haha
Employee 3 | I'm so grateful to our director... haha
haha..
Having a lot of money is the best, right?
I see you've worked elsewhere besides here.
Employee 2 | Don't be ridiculous...
Employee 2 | Mr. 'Employee 3', you worked next to the wife of the famous H Construction Group CEO, right?
Employee 3 | Yes... she was the worst of the worst... haha
yes..?
Employee 3 | Haha, Jiyeon, this is your first time experiencing something like this, so you might not know, but in this world, people like us aren't even human..~
Employee 3 | There may be some who aren't, but this is a world where there are things that are truly inhuman, worse than beasts. The authors, obsessed with wealth and a sense of superiority, add to the filth and filth...
...I see..haha..
You seem to have a lot of things piled up... I see... haha
however...
Even so, what more can I do for my employees?
If you report it to the Ministry of Employment and Labor, that's it.
Employee 1 | That's true, isn't it true that the law doesn't work on them?
Employee 1 | How do you know they'll make you take a bath, or make you lick food you accidentally dropped on the floor like a dog, or roll it into the trash can to satisfy their cravings?
;;
Employee 4 | Hey, where are you writing the novel? LOL
Support 4 | No way, it went too far lol
Employee 1 | The first part of that novel-like story is actually true, haha.
Employee 1 | That guy was a real pervert. Ugh!
...Really?
Employee 1 | So, Jiyeon, please be careful when you do this work.
Oh, but I'm a contract worker...
Employee 2 | Well, you never know, it's better to be careful if you end up doing this again.
Yes.. haha
...
Clank.-
...
Employee | Is the director here?
Oh...you're here (awkwardly)
Jiyeon greeted Taehyun according to the senior staff's instructions.
(glance)
Taehyun glanced at the delay and pointed his head out of sight.
Please give me some bath water.
Employee 1 | Meals...
I haven't done it yet, please.
Employee 2 | Yes, sir.
Oh, the bath water
You take it (pointing at Jiyeon)
yes?
...Follow me, the bathroom is on the second floor.
Oh, yes..!
Jiyeon followed Taehyun to the second floor bathroom.
...
-
-
Knock.-
...
Uh... I got all the bath water.
(muddy)
Oh, yes
...
...
Taehyun stared at Jiyeon.
...?
And then he opened his mouth first as if he was frustrated.
What are you doing,
What are you doing, without taking it off?
!?
