The Maid | P.Sh

I rushed out of my room and out onto the hallway, making Sunoo's eyebrows shoot up in the air as he stopped in the middle of the hallway. In his hands were another two wine bottles, which I had asked him to get rid off while Sunghoon was at work.

"You seem to be in a hurry," Sunoo commented as I just nodded at him.

"Got a phone call, gotta hurry," I murmured to myself before running past him within seconds.

I quickly knocked a few times on the door to Sunghoon's office, immediately finding it empty. It was a weekend, meaning he was home. But the question was just where in the house he was. Quickly calculating I set off down towards the greenhouse, wherelse would he be?

I ignored the cold air that was invading the autumn as I ran across the grassfield in my slippers, which quickly got wet from the damp grass, still drying from the morning's frost.

I swung open the door to the greenhouse and rushed in. I looked from side to side and eventually made eye contact with a very confused Sunghoon, who just looked at me with raised eyebrows. Absolutely clueless.

"Are you alri-" he started before I just ran over and swung my arms around his neck, hugging him tightly, despite him sitting in a seat.

Within a heartbeat he had stood up and softly patted my arms around his neck eventually laying his hands on my back before rubbing it softly.

"I suppose either something really good or really bad has happened," he remarked and I happily nodded at him, "what?"

"Something good," I stated and he nodded at me, a small smile spreading on his face as he pulled me out in a bit of a distance so that he could see my face, "guess."

"How in the world am I supposed to guess?" he let out a small smile making my smile slowly falter, "okay... okay... I'll guess. I'll try."

He looked off to somewhere in the greenhouse as he clearly got a thoughtful expression on his face. I excitedly waited before it had gone too long. My smile slowly faltered as my impatience took over and I lightly whacked his shoulder, catching his attention.

"Yah... you're taking too long," I complained, a snicker making its way onto his face.

"Then tell me. I'm not that creative," he excuses and gave my elbows a small squeeze.

"I got a call," I stated and a frown immediately grew on his face, "a good one for once," I quickly clarified and he slowly nodded in realization, "so uhm... I handed in that job application, and now they want me in for a job interview."

"And what kind of job is it?" he questioned in amusement as I squinted my eyes at him, "oh come on, just because I have the job I have doesn't mean I won't be happy for you. Now come on, tell me," he grinned as I just nodded at him.

"Secretary assistant of an architecture company," I stated and he let out a small laugh before happily shaking my arms back and forth.

"That's great, isn't it?" he questioned and I immediately nodded, "so you just have to go to the interview now?"

"Yup," I proudly nodded, "but uhm... I thought... I've been thinking. If I don't get the job I think I would like to start studying in the spring semester," I hesitantly stated making him immediately nod at me, "I need something to do, otherwise I get restless."

"I want you to have something to do. If you have nothing to wake up to you'll eventually get depressed, you know," he remarked and I just nodded at him, "go tell assistant Kim to make you a good lunch, okay? I can't eat with you today, but from now on I've cleaned my schedule for Sundays so we can spend time together if needed."

"That sounds nice," I nodded at him as a grin stayed on his face.

"I think we should celebrate tomorrow," Sunghoon stated and I just raised my eyebrows at him, "how do people our age celebrate such things?"

"Uhm... movie night with take out food and enough snacks to make us sick," I shrugged and he snickered, "what?"

"Are you serious?" he questioned and I calmly nodded at him, "wait really?" he questioned as his facial expression dropped to one of pure shock.

"You know... most people our age don't earn as much morning as you do," I reminded him, "most earn as much as I do, and I don't know if you remember but I was in a whole shit ton of debt just two years ago, and I still am. Besides, movie nights are cozy and fun."

"I... alright then," he nodded at me before glancing down at his work, "I'll be done before dinner time tonight, then we'll do it."

"Do you even have a television?" I questioned in amusement and he just nodded at me, "wait... really?"

"Assistant Kim will show you," he assured and brushed my hair away from my face, "now... how about you go and get everything needed ready and I'll make sure to get this done fast as possible."

"Thank you," I beamed before quickly pressing a small kiss to his cheek, quickly running off to go find assistant Kim again.

It was exactly these types of cute things that I wanted to do with Sunghoon in order to know whether or not he changed for the better. Another plus is just that I literally didn't have to do any sort of persuation to get him to agree.
