Kims' Love Story

Kim Junmyeon's P.O.V:

“Sir, I have also cleared the bill for the items you sent for Miss Kim Jisoo yesterday.”

I always made sure to train my employees enough so they could understand not to expose the company secrets infront of someone else. At that moment, I wanted nothing but to fire my most trusted employee who ran errands for me I could not trust other people with.

It was not the company secret though it was a personal secret.

Flashback:

“Mr. Lee, are the trainees regular? You know how much I value time so make sure they are regular and punctual.” I told Mr. Lee who was keeping up with my pace. It was one of the less busier days in office, so I wanted to monitor the sessions. Mr. Lee was accompanying me to the studio.

“Yes, sir. They all are very regular and on time. Today, only 1 trainee is absent.” Mr. Lee informed me.

“Okay, let us go and see if the sessions are going alright.”

We were passing through the hallways when I saw a girl with her back towards us talking on the phone. She must be a trainee, I thought. Since my employees knew they could not go around and talk on their phones anywhere they liked. But I was a bit lenient with the trainees as they were not that familiar with our company’s rules.

When we were near her, I noticed she was Miss Eva who was talking on the phone. She had not noticed us yet. I walked passed her but something immediately caught my attention.

“That is such a relief. I have told our teachers that you were sick, so don’t worry.  I will come as quickly as I can and bring lunch for you, Okay? Take care.”

Who was she on the phone with? I was almost sure she was talking to Miss Jisoo. I had information about everything and everyone related to my company, and I knew that they shared the dorm. Did that mean Miss Jisoo was sick and absent?

“Mr. Lee, who is the trainee you said is absent today?” I asked him to be sure.

“Sir, it’s Miss Kim Jisoo.” He said confirming.

“You should go ahead. I have something to take care of.” I told him and turned towards Miss Eva who had just noticed me.

“Good morning, sir” She greeted and bowed.

“Good morning, is there a problem? You seem worried.” I inquired her at the same time not showing her what I was inquiring.

“Oh no, sir. It's just Jisoo was sick when I came here, but she said she is feeling okay now.” She said. I nodded and she left to attend her session.

Jisoo was sick? Although Miss Eva said that she was alright at the moment, I had a feeling of uneasiness. The feelings were foreign to me. I should not feel this way towards a trainee.

Why should I care if she was sick? But it is simple humanity to be empathetic towards other humans. That is probably why I was feeling that way. Besides, she is a trainee in my company and I have to take care of each of them, I thought and called Mr. Lee to inform him I had some engagements and would not go for monitoring the sessions.

I also called Lee Mino to meet me in my car. He was in KJM building because he was the company doctor. After 5 minutes, he was sitting beside me in my car and the driver was driving us to the dorm building.

“What is the emergency about?” It was the third time he asked this question since I called him. One time on phone when I told him to meet me in my car and two times when he got there.

“You will know when we go there.” I told him to bring his basic medical equipments or whatever they were called with himself and that was all. I did not know why I was hiding the fact that we were going to a trainee’s dorm just because I had a gut feeling she was sick. Sooner or later, he would find out though.

The driver stopped the car since I had already given him the directions. The dorms were not that far from the office, so we reached before Mino could inquire me any further than he already had already done.

We got out of the car and went inside. The staff greeted us and bowed while we passed them. They all looked shocked to find me there. I did not visit the dorms often and my surprise visit surprised them it seemed. Once we were inside the elevator, Mino apparently could not keep quiet any longer.

“Will you tell me where the hell are you taking me to? Isn’t this building for trainees?” He asked. I sighed.

“Yes. I have some work here. After that, I will tell you where we are going.” I shortly answered him. He would make fun of me if he knew I was personally going to see if a trainee was sick. He knew me too much to know I was not like a person who would put a full stop to his work to check if a trainee of our company was ill.
