“so can you survive being her butler?”
   chaeyoung asked the last candidates she could guess. it was quite for awhile as we wait for his answer. it took him awhile before he answered her. “if that so, i guess i need to think twice before having you.” she concluded and without any hesitation mr kim dismissed him after as chaeng draw a line on his name.
  “next!” jennie shouted across the room and a man came with the fluffiest looking hair she had ever seen. the cute brown eyed. “jeon jungkook huh?”she scoffed, flipping through his cvs as she reads through them.
   “are you brave enough to protect me?"she asked and without a split of seconds, he gave her an answer. “i am and i can.” she glanced at her side and chaeng noded her head in response.

“thank you, mr jeon.”
    she thanked. the interview went pretty quick— well it's not surprising to them. she let out the sigh of relief she have been holding after realising this interview session is— “lisa, we have one more.” chaeng inform, showing her the file she was hugging.  “where is he then?”lisa questions. she shrugs and cued jennie to shout. “next!”
      no one entered. jennie had enough of shouting and the more she shouts, the more she rages at them. “i said- ”she was about to scream before a familiar man enters. gasp filled the room causing her to return a glare to the guy who she has been avoiding ever since.
    “lisa, that's sehun."jisoo whispered to her side.  lisa didn't need his introduction, she knew it was him. she could feel herself slowly burning. she quickly inhaled deeply, controling her feelings. she had enough talking to men today and she hoped this day wouldn't come again.

“anyeonghaseyo—”she rudely interrupts him. “you're late.”
   his eyes widen to it limits and shook his head. “mianhae.” he apologize as he bows down for her. this man had manners. she thought. however, she knew that was just a cover of all his troubles. “i don't think you're responsible enough for this job.”she bluntly inform. “neither do i.” his lips slowly curving into one of his infamous mischievous smirk causing the young lady to lose her patience. “that asshole.”she gritted her teeth together. she could feel herself glaring at him more.
   “uh-um...lisa are we done?”she heard but purposely ignore it, continue glaring at the man who she certainly find nasty like the rest of the men in this planet. “give us a minute.” she stood up from her seat and tied her blonde hair into a ponytail before she makes her way towards him.

soon her friends left and it was only the two there, standing across eachother.
  “why are you here?”she crossed her arms against herself. he absentmindedly scoffed and dared to reduce the distance between them. “i have my reasons.” he cleared his throat. “well can i know your reason mister?”she stepped back slowly.
     “no.” he answered without any hesitation. once more she takes a deep breath and speak, “if you have no reasons to be here then, there's no reason for you to be my butler.” she inform him. his chuckles caused her to furrowed her eyebrows indicating him to explain but no he didn't.

    “you can leave now, you're too irresponsible to be my butler.” she dismissed him, he nodded his head in reply and leaned closer, slowly closing the gap between them as he whisper to her ear. she absentmindedly held her breath as he whispers.

how can this affect me.

we are not in good terms.

this is a play, a game.

       “don't be suprise if i get the part.”his warm breath heated her ear causing her cheeks to slowly turns into a crimson red.
   “ahjussi was so wrong about him.” she groaned in frustration and plopped on the sofa. “so is he your butler now?” jisoo enters. she was stroking a falling strand of lisa's hair. “never in my lifeline.”

  “-but my lady, you need a butler since i'm retiring soon.” mr kim inform the young lady that caused her to be more frustrated by the topic. “mr kim no one can fit your position.” she told him. “i know who can.”he laugh before he leaves the girls behind.
     “i never knew sehun was bold enough to whisper in your ear.” her eyes widened, startled by what came out of jennie's mouth.

how did she know?

   “i know right.”jisoo agreed, nodding her head.  “yah! can you not.”she yelled but it didn't affect them.
     “i mean you've been away for years so you might not know him well.” chaeyoung butts in. “he only does that to certain-” jisoo started before jennie nudges her side and glared at her. they didn't want to expose it to her because they thought it would be easier if she found out by herself.
    “nevermind.”she muttered and skips away to the kitchen where the chefs and maids are. “certain what, unnie?!”she shouted but jisoo was nowhere near anymore.

   “i will not let him or anyone to replace mr kim.”she stormed out leaving chaeng and jennie. they exchange glances before they bursted laughing, “she's oblivious.”
“she certain is unnie.”
