EP. 36#Commuting
***
Time passed, and two weeks had already passed. It was too precious to spend any more time lying in this hospital bed.
Next to me was Min Yoongi, who was trying to stop me from going to work, and Teacher Seokjin, who was checking the test results several times.
황은비
Are you able to go to work?
김석진
yes?
민윤기
You can't go to work. How many times do I have to tell you, Hwang Eun-bi?
김석진
I think what Yoongi said is right.. It's a large company, so there will be a lot of people.
민윤기
Lie here longer
Yoongi oppa, you're so cold. I want to go to work, but why are you being so serious? Just get your vaccine.
황은비
I'm leaving..
민윤기
ha -
After a few seconds of silence, Yoongi opened his mouth.
민윤기
Then let's go, I'll send you to work.
황은비
uh...?
김석진
Yoongi...
민윤기
Hwang Eun-bi came out after changing clothes.
It was Yoongi oppa getting up from his seat and heading out. He didn't look too good, but even though he was going to work, I felt a little uneasy because of him.
Teacher Seokjin also looked around, closed the door, and left. It's now 8:30. If I get ready quickly, I can be at work by 9.
황은비
It was good,
It's a challenge to get ready in 20 minutes.
The whole trip was just as bad as before. Arriving at the office, I was so nervous I broke out in a cold sweat and clutched my bag tightly.
I sighed deeply, raised my head, and entered the office. I still wonder why Yoongi suddenly asked me to go to work.
As I walked down the hallway, I felt eyes fixed on me. "Yeah, keep looking."
"There was a rumor that she was dating the boss."
"You could spread disease within the company."
"What's wrong with that girl? Is she crazy?"
Being among people, I was half-conscious, caught in the tension. I kept reminding myself not to bump into anyone.
Standing in that hallway of the marketing office, I was speechless. My face was turning pale, and I tried to smile, even if only a little, by licking my dry lips with my tongue.
No matter how many times I forced a smile, the corners of my mouth would fall again, and I lowered my head. Without realizing it, my body was trembling.
황은비
No... don't be nervous
Is this why Yoongi-oppa said we should go? That people would be so swept up in fear that they wouldn't be able to enter.
민윤기
That's why I told you to lie down
민윤기
It's okay, so let's go again without being too proud.
황은비
No... haha I'm fine. If I'm going to rest here more, why would I go to work?
It was Yoongi oppa who tried to stop me, but I said it was okay and walked to my seat.
Her legs swaying on the high heels made her feel increasingly uneasy, and her eyes began to turn hazy.
"Huh... Mr. Hwang..."
As soon as I entered, people were surprised to see me. The skipships and hands approaching me all appeared against the apricot-colored background.
민윤기
Sigh... It's past 9 o'clock now. It's work time, so go back to your desk.
"Uh...ah...yes..."
The employees quickly returned to their seats. Having the CEO's office right next door was a nice perk.
At best, he's my boyfriend. I have to take care of him. It's a bit tiring. I don't think I can even look at the computer screen.
황은비
..Oh my...ha...I'm going crazy
The next nine hours seemed daunting. Especially during lunchtime, when a party seemed like it would be a total disaster.
As I sat down, almost collapsing, I heard my brother's voice faintly.
민윤기
%#%@Come, okay?
After Yoongi said that and left, the employees cautiously approached me.
"Agent ㅠㅠㅜ Are you okay?"
"I ended up being hospitalized for over two weeks ㅠㅜㅠ"
"The boss called me right away... Isn't it because of the project?"
황은비
Ah....the boss called....
황은비
Okay...I'll go to the president's office.
I held my head and gripped the desk for support. As I staggered toward the president's office, a female employee blocked my path.
김설현
Are you feeling better after taking a break, sir?
김설현
It's a mess lol.
황은비
Seolhyun, you don't have to do this. You're already suffering enough.
황은비
Move... Ah... No,
I wanted to say, "Would you please step aside?" but it was too much for me to act so aggressively as soon as I arrived. I sidestepped Seolhyun and walked towards the president's office.
The hallways were getting so dark that I couldn't tell if I had opened my eyes.
***
As I was walking, staggering, I felt someone grab my wrist, which brought me back to my senses and I shook the hand away.
민윤기
it's me,
At those words, I lost all strength and leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.
황은비
Haa...haa...
민윤기
Let's go home, I'm worried about you.
황은비
When you were hurt, oppa... you worked too... hehe
He pointed to his shoulder with his hand. Then he looked at the ground, then at me, and with a bitter smile, he said to me.
민윤기
Back then, I knew I could run and I was fine. Now, I don't think you can handle it.
민윤기
Let me say it again, don't push yourself too hard and go home.
황은비
Uh..no..me.....
"president......?"
