"I… will… do… my… best, done!" said Mi Rae. Mi Rae was sitting in front of her desk with her laptop in front of her. She was typing something and finally finished it after 3 hours. "Hiya~~" Mi Rae let out a sound while she stretched her hand. She looked at her room's ceiling and smile. "Time to sleep," said Mi Rae. She stood from the chair and walked to her bed. She lied on her bed and reached her smartphone placed on top of the small table besides her bed.

'Click, click click, click, click' she typed in her smartphone's password and the smartphone screen changed from black to a wallpaper of a beautiful white lilies. She clicked the Instagram icon and her Instagram account appeared. Her account name was brightlight90 and a lot of flower pictures appeared. She did not have any followers, but she followed a lot of people. She scrolled up her Instagram and a post caught her attention.

The post was a picture of a handsome man in glasses and doctor coat. He seems to be around early 30s and beside him was a beautiful woman around Mi Rae's age. They looked like they were in love as it clearly shown in their face. Mi Rae clicked the like button and the liked count did not change as the count was too high. The woman was Yoon Se Ra, one of Korea top fashion designer. She was a beautiful woman and many men pursued her, but she chose the handsome doctor as her partner.

"Oppa, I'm glad to see you happy," said Mi Rae while smiling to the picture of that handsome doctor. After that, she scrolled up more and saw a video posted by Yoon Se Ra. It was a video of Yoon Se Ra and the handsome doctor having lunch at a restaurant. Mi Rae recognized the restaurant. It was the restaurant that currently viral in social media for their unique food. After watching the video, Mi Rae again clicked the like button. After skimming through her smartphone for few more minutes, Mi Rae locked her phone and put it back on the small table. She pulled in her blanket and stared at her room ceiling.

"I'm nervous for tomorrow. This is my first time working at a big company. The pressure is huge," said Mi Rae. She closed her eyes and a few minutes later, she fell asleep.

"My flight will reach there around 8am. Make sure you are at the airport when I arrive. I want to go straight to the office," said Shi Hoon. He ended the phone call and put his phone on the bed. He stared towards the beautiful view from his hotel room. After staring at the views for few seconds, Shi Hoon reached the files near him and read them. He had a serious face while reading the file.

'Teet-teet-teet-teet' Mi Rae's alarm clock sounded. Mi Rae's hand moved towards the alarm clock and switch it offed. It was 5.30 AM. She stretched her arm and then got off her bed. She walked towards her bathroom, washed her face, reached her toothbrush and start brushing her teeth. After that, she went to the kitchen and started to cook her breakfast and packed her lunch. She ate her breakfast and then took a shower. She took her car key and went out of her house. Once she reached her car, she stopped.

"I don't think it is okay to drive. They will get suspicious. Bus, let's take the bus," Mi Rae decided to take the bus instead of using her own car. She walked towards the bus stop around 15 minutes from her house. "Whaa~ there are many people. This will be hard," said Mi Rae while she looked towards the long line of people waiting for the next bus. The bus that went to her new workplace reached the bus stop five minutes later. Just as Mi Rae thought, people were squishing inside the bus like sardine.

After about 30 minutes of bus ride, Mi Rae went off the bus at a bus stop near her new workplace. She walked towards a huge and tall building. At the front of the building were the company name, XG company. XG was one of biggest company in the country. They deal with food, fashion, entertainment and techs. Mi Rae will be working as an intern for 3 months at the fashion department.

Mi Rae wore her company ID and enter the building. She waited for an elevator with few other employees. The elevator arrived and the door opened. Inside the elevator was two men. One with a stiffed face near the elevator door and the other at the back of the elevator fiddling with his smartphone. The man at the back was handsome but he gives off the aura of 'I will kill you if you get near me'.

The employees around Mi Rae recognized the stiffed face man and the scary man but since Mi Rae was new, she did not know who they were and she entered the elevator without any care. The scary man was XG company CEO, Park Shi Hoon and the stiffed face man was his personal assistant Kim Jong Min. The employees in front of the elevator gasped as they saw Mi Rae went into the elevator. They knew how scary their CEO was and one of them tried to stop her but he was too late.

"Erm~ are you all not getting in?" asked Mi Rae to all the employee outside the elevator. They all immediately shook their heads declining Mi Rae's invitations. "Oh, okay," said Mi Rae. The elevator door closed and the elevator went up.

"Are you new?" asked Shi Hoon. He did not look towards Mi Rae but at his smartphone. After he said that, Mi Rae looked behind her. "If you see me inside the elevator again after this, don't get in. I hate it when someone else who I'm not close with is near me," said Shi Hoon while looking at his smartphone.

"Oh, okay," said Mi Rae. She went silent for a few seconds while staring at Shi Hoon. Suddenly, her eyes gleamed with excitement. She started smiling and went towards Shi Hoon. "Could it be you are this company CEO, Park Shi Hoon? Is this your image inside this company? Cool, cold, scary CEO type? For real? Kyaaa~ this is my first time meeting a CEO just like those CEO male leads in dramas," said Mi Rae excitedly.

Shi Hoon and Jong Min got surprised with her reactions. Jong Min immediately tried to stop Mi Rae from getting close to Shi Hoon but Mi Rae stopped before Jong Min stopped her. Shi Hoon looked at Mi Rae weirdly.

"Hahaha, I'm sorry boss, I got too excited. I will stop now," said Mi Rae and she faced the elevator door again. She did not say anything after that. Shi Hoon and Jong Min looked at each other.

'A weirdo but at least she knows self-restrain,' thought Shi Hoon.

'Waa~ this girl is dangerous. I hope boss is not angry,' thought Jong Min.

A phone rang and it was Shi Hoon's phone. "Hello, mom," said Shi Hoon.

"Are you at the airport or the company?" asked Shi Hoon's mother.

"I'm at the company. Something wrong?" asked Shi Hoon. He looked towards the elevator door and his eyes met Mi Rae's eyes. Mi Rae was looking at Shi Hoon through the elevator door reflection. Upon meeting Shi Hoon's eyes, she smiled. Shi Hoon quickly gazed at other direction.

"About your blind dates," said Shi Hoon's mother.

"Blind dates… Again? You know that they all scared of me. Why are you arranging this again?" said Shi Hoon.

"Blame yourself. If you at least try to smile and be kind to others, you will be dating someone now," said Shi Hoon's mother in anger.

"I'm always like this and if they want to be with me, they should try to understand me too," said Shi Hoon. "We will talk about this at home," Shi Hoon ended the called. Shi Hoon looked at his phone with dissatisfied face.

"Pfft~" Mi Rae let out a sound. Shi Hoon and Jong Min looked at Mi Rae. Mi Rae was holding his mouth and suddenly she burst out laughing, "Hahaha, I'm sorry but this is too funny. I thought this kind of thing only happen in drama but I meet the real ones," said Mi Rae.

Jong Min looked at Mi Rae with a scared face. Shi Hoon was pissed when Mi Rae laughing like that. He wanted to say something at Mi Rae but the elevator reached Mi Rae's floor. Mi Rae immediately went out of the elevator and bowed at Shi Hoon while smiling and she went off to her office. Shi Hoon was filled with anger and his fists was shaking with anger. Mi Rae stepped on a land mine.

'Oh god no!!!' Jong Min was crying inside his mind.
