Chapter 26 - Appreciate Talent or External Beauty?

"So, everyone welcome our new member today. His name is Sihoo and he will work as an intern starting today", announced our team leader.

"For someone like him, he has good qualifications, but I hope he has the skills too. Right! Mr. Kiro", the team leader, gives a mischievous look and directs him to be in my care.

"Hello, sir. I hope to be of utmost help to you. Sihoo greets me and then greets everyone individually.

"I understand the Team leader being rude to me but why is he targeting him too on his first day?" I asked Mr. wang.

"Well! It's because he is an Omega too. Probably that's why, ", Mr. Wang replied hesitantly.

"Didn't I tell you yesterday that he is similar to you? But just look at him how adorable he is", Mr Yang continued staring at him while I sat there bewildered and astonished.

Sihoo, our new employee is a young omega. He looks around 5'9" and is fair-skinned. His eyes are just filled with curiosity and a passion for receiving genuine knowledge. I can clearly see that. His brownish eyes and small lips with a sharp-edged nose are what make his features attractive. I know all omegas are pretty but some are just gorgeous and he is one of them. Gel styles his black hair so as not to mess with his hairstyle. And his faint sweet scent is equivalent to a good perfume. I am happy to see more of us working here with a smile on their face. He reminds me of the chatty children of the orphanage. 

Well, after me, the company started hiring Omegas drastically. But as far as I am aware most of the other departments in the company still see them as just the face and not the brains. They are responsible for our company's image as in most foreign meetings Omegas are at the epicentre because of their looks. 

I may be an exception because of my boyfriend, but I will not let Sihoo fall prey to them. I am going to protect him at all costs. This burdened body is already increasingly heavy, but I suppose I can add more, just a little more. 

"Alright, Sihoo! We have to leave now. I know this is your first day and I am already ordering you to do field work but I hope you understand. " I smiled faintly at him.

"Sir, I feel so privileged to work with this company that...." Sihoo suddenly halted as I was the reason.

I raised my hand and gestured for him to stop. I don't want him to be under the illusion that the company he has joined is some sort of privilege that he could not afford. Of Course, I want him to respect his profession but simultaneously I want him to respect himself. Respect his talent as much as he gives respect to others.

"My apologies sir, I know I am a chatterbox and sometimes I go out of line but I will work on myself," he bowed and started to walk ahead.

I suppose he is getting the wrong signals from my actions. I walked hastily as to reach him and suddenly tripped making us both fall down. He hurriedly stood up and reached for me. I grabbed his hand while he started apologising.

I sighed, and his expression worsened.

But to me, it all was so funny that I burst out in laughter.

"You dummy, it was not your fault. I was the one responsible for our fall. Why are you apologising every time and who told you that you are a chatterbox? It is your first day, and it is perfectly fine to appease your seniors and you were doing the same thing. But you don't have to do this with me. Only your talent is what matters to me and nothing else." I assured him while dusting my clothes off.

"Sir, are you an A.N.G.E.L?" his eyes shimmered as he asked me that question.

I looked up and stared directly at him.

"Are Angels this clumsy?" I whispered in his ears.

"Huh!!!!" He backed away a little and his cheeks flushed immediately. 

"Hahaha!" seeing him all embarrassed, I wanted to tease him more, but we were already late for work.

"Alright! Alright! Jokes apart", let's head to work. They have a packed schedule, so let's get there on time and work accordingly."

In the car...

"So, uumm, sir, you don't think I'm a chatterbox?" asked Sihoo in a low tone.

"What? No, I don't. And it's your first day today. How can I reach such a conclusion in just one day?" I told him while changing the song in the car.

Suddenly, CYBELE's song started playing and as soon as I was going for the next song, he told me to halt.

"Sir, this is a nice song. Have you listened to it before?" he asked me while humming to the beats.

"I have. Instead, I have listened to all their songs." I told him in a low voice. 

"Really! Me too. They are the best so far. Their youngest member is my favourite. She has a mesmerising voice and such good visuals." he started expressing his views regarding the group.

I sat there in the driving seat waiting for the traffic light to change colours. 

"Do you have a bias?" he inquired.

"Well, it is my job to stay updated on the assignment that I have been provided with. I don't have any personal favourite or something like that" I informed him while the traffic lights turned green and I started driving again.

"Well, yes true sir but honestly Andrea is the best," he smiles while enjoying the song.

I smile too as I hear his words and concentrate ahead.

"Wait! Sir, this is a cafe," he asks, getting puzzled.

"Yes, they changed the location at the last minute. They said they were going to shoot them while preparing the cafe menu and simultaneously let us take the interview." I informed him.

"Then I am sure that Andrea must have suggested this place," he said while checking his attire again in the mirror.

To be honest, this is the cafe where I met Andrea for the first time.
