The team leader is your ex-boyfriend?

02-1 A Slightly Strange Heart

Is this what it feels like for your mind to go completely blank? Just...

I couldn't think of anything.

I wanted to ask you why you are here and why you appeared before me only now.

Well, we aren't close enough to ask about things like that, but

박지민(신입)

I am Park Jimin, a new employee. It is a pleasure to work with you.

김여주(신입)

I am Kim Yeo-ju, a new employee. J...Nice to meet you.

Trembling hands, wavering vision, and an inexplicable pounding—everything was not due to this.

I'm the one who thought I had completely forgotten you, the one who thought I could now say that I have no feelings for you even when I see you.

예울곤듀

I'm excited

김여주(신입)

Ah, not you.

김태형(팀장)

Let's do that. If you have nothing more to say, you may leave.

It felt a bit strange seeing Kim Taehyung, who used to be so cute with his stiff tone and expressions, suddenly change like this.

예울곤듀

I like whatever I do

김여주(신입)

Ah, not you.

It was just that the smile you always wore was gone, but you looked really cold. It has been over three years since we broke up, but who would have known you would change this much?

I felt a little better thanks to the fresh air I breathed outside the team leader's office. I never expected Kim Taehyung to be here.

Jimin and I came out of the team leader's office looking completely different, and Assistant Manager Kim Seokjin handed us the documents that needed to be organized by today.

I saw a lot of people complaining that the company gives too much work, but I was a little surprised by how little work there was compared to what I expected. Is it because it's my first day?

김석진(대리)

It's the first day, so don't push yourself too hard and hang in there!

I felt energized thanks to the assistant manager who spoke with a big smile.

I was definitely draining my energy just a moment ago, but

Turn on the computer to start work

Was I organizing the documents I was sorting?

I heard the assistant manager calling, so I headed to his seat.

김여주(신입)

Why did you call me, Assistant Manager?

김석진(대리)

Yeoju, I'm really sorry, but could you please take this to the team leader? The manager suddenly called me...

It felt like my heart was dropping.

Even though several people were in the team leader's office earlier

My eyes were confused after seeing that person's face, and now you're telling me to go back there again, and all by myself?

김석진(대리)

As expected... it's too difficult a request, isn't it? I'm sorry. You may go back to your seat.

The assistant manager soon smiled as if to say it was okay, seeing me unable to say anything.

So I blurted out words I could never take back.

김여주(신입)

No...! I'll do it.

Yeah, saying that was fine, but how am I supposed to get in now!!!!! You stupid idiot, Lee Kim Yeo-ju!!!

I wonder where all that courage went that made me head energetically to the team leader's office holding the documents the assistant manager handed me.

The moment I grabbed the doorknob of the team leader's office, I felt like all the courage I had in my head was blown away, and only my heart was pounding.

My lips started to dry up, and I didn't know what to do.
