Hyungwon | Boy Next Door

Chapter 5

Hanseol Pov

The next morning, i woke up early and went on a job hunting spree. Finding a job is hard but being jobless is harder.

I walked around the streets of Mapo-gu. I searched in every shops with staff hiring.

The first one i found is a shoe store. They need a sales lady. The brand looks popular so i tried my luck.

"I'm so sorry but a while ago we had hired someone already. You're a bit late for the position. We're sorry." The manager said.

"Ah ye. Thank you." I said then left.

They should've just taken that sign down. I sighed.

I continued searching until i found another one. It's an advertising company. I tried my luck again.

"I'm very sorry but we're looking for someone with experience. Well you do have one but you only lasted for a week. I'm sorry."

"I see. Anyway, thank you." I said.

After that, i tried my luck in another two stores and two companies but i didn't get in. It's already past lunch time but i didn't get hungry at all.

I decided to stop by a convenience store and ate kimbap to prolong my energy. I stuffed myself and then continued on my job hunting.

"Why is job hunting in Seoul more difficult than when i was in Pucheon?" I muttered to myself.

I decided to search for the last time just for today. I got tired of walking in this high heels.

I suddenly passed by a large screen, playing an advertisement that they're hiring a receptionist. I guess i could give it a try.

Mon Group.

That company is way too big for me but there's no harm in trying.

When i arrived, i was awed by the company's interior. I cant even imagine how lucky i am if ever i made it into this company.

"Excuse me." I approached the receptionist.

"Yes? How may i help you?" She asked.

"I would like to apply as a receptionist. Where do i pass this documents?"

"I see. Just leave it here and wait for a call."

"Okay. Thank you." I left my documents in the receptionist and then left. This is it for today. I let out a big sigh and went home. Before i could open my door, i saw a plastic bag hanged on the doorknob. A note is attached on it.

Eat it. Good night.

Wth? Who would leave it here? That guy again?

I knocked on his door.

"What is it?" He said.

"Did you leave this on my door?"

"Did you see my name on it?"

"Ne? N-No. But nobody else would leave it here."

"Kurae? Am i the only person around here?"

Damn! This guy is really getting on my nerves!

"Aish!" I then went inside my apartment.

Hyungwon Pov

That girl is so high-tempered.

I scoffed.

I went back inside and continued doing my work. I always bring my work home.

Soon, i'll handle our company. As an incoming CEO, slacking is out of the question.

I chose to live a simple life and live away from work. I want to concentrate on my career, prepare myself, and avoid getting attention. So up until now, nobody knows anything about me except for my secretary and my friend, Minhyuk.
