Just Contract | JaeSahi [?]

"Are you okay, Yoon Director?" Yedam asked as he put the documents on the table. Jaehyuk signed. It has been a week since Jaehyuk started his work as the new Director at the Twilight Technology. During that period of time, Jaehyuk met Asahi everyday as he's one of the representatives for the Operation Management Department for the morning meeting. It's because that department just landed quite a huge deal with the contracts, the HQ suddenly wants him to get the detailed report from the company. The board directors are actually trying to look for Jaehyuk's mistakes or anything that can get him down from his current title.

Knowing that, Jaehyuk won't let them do it easily. He can just ask the staff involved to send him the summarized report but it can easily make him look like he didn't do his job well. Jaehyuk will definitely get the report, detailed and daily. So he can summarize it himself to make sure he can look for any improvisation he can suggest or anything that can make the contract run smoothly while trying to get the management of this subsidiary company on the right track in the given period of time which is in a year.

His work is not that big a deal for Jaehyuk. It's Asahi. He knows that he should be professional and Asahi too. But Asahi's professionalism really ticked him off. He really pretended that they never even spent their night together. It really makes Jaehyuk frustrated. But because of them having the professional connection, he can't just blindly go to Asahi and talk to him about it. Well, he can actually do that after working hours, but his ego won't let him. And what left, Jaehyuk being frustrated. And it's quite bothering Yedam that he decided to ask his boss.

"You've been sighing almost every time I walk in. You probably sigh more when I'm not in this room. Or you're sighing because you see me?" Yedam asked. Jaehyuk turned at his secretary. Even if Jaehyuk didn't tell him what's bothering him, Yedam can actually guess. He has been around the older Alpha for years. He can almost read him like a book. Yedam can help him if it's work related problems. But if it's his personal problem, Yedam usually will wait for Jaehyuk to ask him first. But it seems like the older guy won't tell him yet, so Yedam decided to ask first. "Is it because of Hamada Asahi?"

"Yes. He has been pretending not to know me too well. It makes me frustrated," Jaehyuk said. "Like am I not attractive enough that he can act just normal around me like that? Did he not remember? Is that why Mashiho asked him to pretend to be him and met me that night? Because he knows that Asahi can do this job really well. But still. What the hell?"

"You're upset that he acted professional by not getting flustered or shy around you after what he did to you or you did to him that night?" Yedam asked. "Did you like him?"

"Now that you ask," Jaehyuk said after pausing for a while. Then he stayed silent for a few minutes, thinking. Did he like Asahi? Is this frustration because he likes Asahi but he didn't show any interest toward him even a little? "I can't really tell. But I really did like his scent. Since the first time I smelled it. He smelled really familiar,"

"So. You did like him?" Yedam asked.

"He's cute tho. I can try to like him if I want to," Jaehyuk said.

"Are you trying to force yourself to like him or something?" Yedam asked.

"And why do you sound like Hyunsuk hyung?" Jaehyuk asked, recalling the time Hyunsuk said almost the same phrase.

"If you like him, just say so. Go and meet him. Tell him how you feel. You're now single too. Who knows you can get married to him?" Yedam said.

"Do you think he'll agree to have a contract marriage?" Jaehyuk asked. Yedam almost slapped his own forehead hearing what just came out from Jaehyuk's mouth.

"I mean, an actual marriage. Not a contract one. You said that you like him, right? You guys can actually date each other and get married," Yedam said. "Remember that your parents are still waiting for your opinion on Mashiho. Mashiho haven't said anything to his parent either because apparently he's planning to make you being the one who tell your parents that you don't want to meet him again,"
