Chapter 69 – Episode 69
First day of interview.
It was a refreshing feeling to see the candidates I had chosen sitting in the office.
What can I say, it feels like the people I raised are standing in line?
‘Kya~! ‘I feel like I’m the boss!’
“Junseok, I’m ready.”
As I was lost in strange thoughts, the boss called me.
“Ah yes. Then, I will call you number 1.”
After saying that, I opened the conference room door and went out.
Since I am still the only employee, I also have to ask the interviewee to come inside.
“Then, I will take number 1 on the waiting list.”
“Oh, yes!”
When I called, a young-looking man stood up and approached me.
The nervous body movements were funny for no reason.
Not in a mocking sense, but in a cute way.
I brought him inside.
And then I walked right across and sat down next to the boss.
“Please sit down.”
“Ah, yes, this is Kim Woo-sik, who is being interviewed this time. Please take care of me!”
“Yes, please take care of me.”
I wonder if the person I brought in seemed a bit surprised to see the interview.
The other person was embarrassed, said hello late, and sat down on the chair with a stiff body motion.
“You don’t have to be nervous. Please answer comfortably, comfortably.”
As expected, the boss was considerate to the other person like a gentleman.
“Yes, yes! Thank you.”
“Great. Then, let’s start the interview.”
That’s how the interview began.
***
It was a lot harder than I thought to call people and ask and answer questions one by one.
I asked questions diligently, hoping that the other person would reveal as much of his or her capabilities and thoughts as possible, but it actually made things difficult for me.
It’s difficult to chat comfortably with a friend for an hour or two, but trying to concentrate and have a deep conversation in a tense situation is no joke.
“Phew, that’s hard. Should we rest for a bit?”
“I understand, boss.”
The boss went out, rubbing his forehead with his hand, and I followed him.
It’s so stuffy that I need to get some air…
“Huh?”
But that thought disappeared in an instant.
Outside the office, Nayu was standing in front of the door.
“Nayu? “What are you doing here?”
“Didn’t you see the message?”
At those words, I hurriedly took out my cell phone.
On my cell phone set to Do Not Disturb mode, there were 6 notifications that messages had arrived.
“Wow.”
“I sent you a few times to say you would stop by since you were nearby, but you never responded.”
“Sorry! “I’m really sorry!”
I apologize hastily.
“Today was interview day, so I was out of my mind.”
“Interview? Why the sudden interview… Ah, so you’re the interviewer. For some reason, it seemed like there were a lot of people in here.”
Nayu nods her head as if she finally understands.
She handed me the paper bag she was holding in her hand.
“Now, this.”
“What is that?”
“Bread.”
Huh? Bread?
“Just what… Eat this at least. It seems like you’re having a hard time working overtime these days… “
“Nayu… “
I was so touched that I immediately hugged Nayu.
It felt good to feel her breasts against my chest.
“Hey, hey. I feel embarrassed when others see me… “
“What do you think?”
“Umm… “
Although Nayu was embarrassed, she accepted my foolish behavior and hugged me.
And Nayu asked me in a low voice.
“Now that I think about it, do you see that guy in there? No, don’t turn your head.”
When she heard Nayu’s words and tried to check who she was talking about, she stopped.
“If you look over there, there’s a guy who’s a bit thin and wears glasses.”
A glance.
Without turning my head, I only turned my eyes to see who it was.
A man was looking at me and Nayu.
She opened her mouth and looked like she was about to drool.
“Huh. A person is looking here with a strange expression.”
“He’s a little strange.”
“Is it strange?”
“I came here and waited for you, but you kept looking at me.”
That bastard?
“Keep looking around the chest area and…” Yes.”
“I see. That’s a bad guy.”
Even as I said that, my conscience pricked me for no reason.
I thought that Nayu deserved it, and it seemed like she deserved it too.
“I didn’t just say that. He kept looking at me in a dirty way. Just… “It was a bit like that.”
It seems like he was wondering why he said it after saying it.
Nayu finished her sentence in silence.
But it meant a lot to me.
That kid is eliminated right away.
Who dare you look at so dirty?
At that time, my eyes caught the CEO entering the interview room again.
“Oh, I’m sorry, Nayu. I have to continue the interview… “
“Know. It’s busy, but I came here for no reason. “There is bread and drinks, so eat while you eat.”
“Huh. Thank you.”
I gave Ga-hye a quick kiss on the cheek and went inside.
The man who was looking at me and Nayu just moments ago was looking at me this time with eyes filled with indescribable emotions.
What on earth is this?
Anyway, I have to do my job first.
“Boss, shall we proceed again?”
“Yes. Let’s do that.”
After entering the conference room and checking the president’s preparations, I called the waiting number again.
“To the next… “I’ll be waiting for number 6.”
The person who stood up after those words was the man who had been looking at me and Nayu with strange eyes just a moment ago.
I tried to control my expression and let him into the conference room.
Just now, I got emotional for no reason, but I still can’t disqualify him just because he looked strange.
Let’s find out what kind of person he is through an interview…
“Hello!”
The man greeted in a loud voice and sat down.
“Hello. That… “You are Park Won-gyu, right?”
“Yes.”
After checking the name, it was the moment I was about to ask a question.
“Hey, interviewer! “Can I ask you one question?”
You must be an unusual person to skip the self-introduction and start by asking questions.
“Uh… “
I looked at the boss’s thoughts.
The boss nodded his head slightly without saying a word.
“Yes, which one is it?”
“That big guy outside… Hmm, what kind of relationship do you have with the woman!? Are you in a romantic relationship?”
Hey you crazy.
Why are you asking that here?
“That’s a personal question that has nothing to do with the current interview.”
I turned around and refused to answer.
“Still, I’m curious!”
But the other person ignored my retelling.
“Because that woman is really my ideal type!”
It will spin.
Well, there are people like this.
“I will finish the interview. “Get out.”
The boss suddenly intervened.
“Yes? But she just asked this person a question… “
“You asked a question about my personal privacy, and even though I refused to answer, didn’t you push me? I don’t want to work with someone who lacks common sense like this.”
Wow, the boss is so hot.
The other person looks at the boss with a puzzled expression.
The boss just looked at him with a stern expression.
“Well, these are all cases… “
The other person muttered as if he was dumbfounded and walked out without even saying hello.
I was so angry that I tried to follow him, but the boss put out his hand and stopped me.
“Calm down, Junseok.”
“But that guy is totally…” “
“If you meet a lot of people, don’t you think you’ll step on a lot of shit? “Giggles.”
Damn.
Since the boss is trying to get over it like this, it’s becoming very difficult for me to step forward.
“Eww… “I’ll call the next person on the waiting list.”
“Yes, please.”
I somehow swallowed the uncomfortable feeling inside and went outside to call the next person.
***
Three days passed, and the interview was over.
Fortunately, there were no more crazy people like Park Won-gyu during the rest of the interview.
But unfortunately, there were a few more crazy people who were worse than that.
He’s weaker than Park Won-gyu, who wants to NTR someone’s lover in front of everyone else, but when he sees a young guy like me as the team leader, what on earth is he asking if he can start as the team leader too?
Thanks to this experience, one thought stuck in my head.
‘The world is big and there are so many crazy people.’
I felt it in the military, but I never thought I would feel it again in society.
Anyway, a few days have passed since this messy interview.
New and experienced employees joined our company, bringing the total number of people to 10.
Among them, I and two other people became team leaders, and our company came to have the same structure as the president, team leader, and employee.
I spent hectic days trying to become friends with other team leaders, teaching employees various things, and establishing and maintaining company rules.
***
About a month later, there was a day when I became acquainted with the new people.
“Team Leader Lee Jun-seok, a guest has arrived.”
“Are you a guest?”
It was the first time in a long time that I had some free time, so I was taking a decent rest when the employee informed me that a guest had arrived.
There was no one coming to visit me, but I thought about it and went outside to see Gahye standing there.
“Gahye, what’s going on here?”
I asked in surprise and quickly checked my phone.
I contacted you, but I didn’t see you?
However, there were no new messages in the cell phone messages.
“I came secretly to surprise you!”
Gahye looked at me and made a peek-a-boo pose.
I told him to contact me when he came to visit the company, but he came without even contacting me… I thought about getting angry, but that anger went away in an instant.
“Hey, we still have to talk. “What would you do without me?”
“Then why don’t we just go~”
Gahye sticks out her tongue while saying that.
Ga-hye, who has become more aegyo these days, is so cute.
As a joke, I lightly pinched Gahye’s cheek.
“Ehehe, Junseok. “Have you had lunch?”
“No, not yet… Ah, it’s almost lunchtime. Shall we have lunch together?”
“Yes!”
If Gahye were a puppy, she would make an expression that would make her tail wag.
It was cute, so I pinched it one more time and went inside.
“I will eat lunch outside, so everyone please eat.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Enjoy your meal.”
After telling the staff to eat on their own without me, she comes out.
The moment I came out, I witnessed another amazing sight.
“Nayu?”
Isn’t there Nayu next to Gahye?
“What, when did you come?”
“I came with my sister.”
“Together? But just before… “
“I went to the bathroom.”
After saying that, the two women stand on either side of me.
“What should I eat?”
“Well… “I didn’t think of anything.”
“Junseok, is there anywhere delicious nearby?”
“Around… Hmm… “
Me moving between two women.
I got on the elevator and pressed the button for the first floor.
But at that moment, I made eye contact with an employee who came out of the office.
‘Ugh.’
It was such a strange timing.
Gahye gets into the elevator first and goes to the corner, and Nayu and I are in front of the elevator door.
If you look from there, it will look like I’m trying to get on the elevator with Nayu.
‘It’s not very nice to be caught with two women on either side of you.’
Ah, as expected.
The employee’s eyes widened as he looked at me.
‘Uhm… ‘
With two women involved, you won’t know what’s going on.
Damn it, what kind of rumors will spread after lunch?
The moment I started to feel a little nervous, a thought occurred to me.
‘The world is big and there are a lot of crazy people, so why should I live like this?’
The thoughts I had thanks to my recent experience strangely fit into my current situation.
And the moment I thought this, I felt a little more at ease.
‘If something strange is going around, I have to just gloss over it.’
After making up my mind like that, I immediately started thinking passionately about what to eat with Gahye and Nayu.
