Chance Encounters

HR Approved

Jin Ah refused to let him pick her up the following morning because it was out of the way. When she arrived at the office, she saw him waiting by her cubicle holding a coffee. Handing it to her, he smiled, "Good morning!"

"Good morning," she replied, blushing slightly. Pushing open her door, she let him in and they stood awkwardly on opposite sides of her work desk. Both remembering how difficult it was to part the night before.

They kissed and kissed and kissed.

Then kissed again.

They had been kissing for hours when Ji Sung pulled away. "Jin-ssi, it's quite late. I should go."

"Huh? Really?" she said, quite confused at the sudden halt.

Her lips were swollen, hair disheveled and boyfriend shirt was askew. Groaning, he cupped her face again and gave her quick pecks. "You look so tempting."

"So, don't go," she whispered pulling him back.

"Jin, come on. Don't make it difficult," he groaned again, much much later. "We still have work tomorrow."

The good night kiss still ended up heated and Ji Sung had to walk uncomfortably back to his car while Jin Ah was left panting and breathless.

"How did you sleep?" Ji Sung asked.

"Quite good. You?"

"Yes. I had some scratches that I needed to put antiseptic on but otherwise I rested very well," he shared.

Her eyes widened. "Omo! Scratches?" Assessing his face, she saw some near his neck and some on his forearms. "I caused those?" she asked, dropping her voice so no one would hear.

He nodded happily. "I'm not complaining, by the way."

She blushed again. "Are you going to be busy today?"

"Yes, there's a department meeting then planning so it might go well into the night," he informed her. "I'll just call you or send you a message if I don't get out early. Good luck today."

"Thank you," she said and awkwardly bid him goodbye. But just before he was fully out of her office, she called him back. "Ji Sung wait!"

He looked at her, waiting for her to continue.

"I'll miss you today," she said shyly.

He grinned from ear to ear. Checking to see if anyone could see, he turned back and gave her a flying kiss. "Same. Let's make plans for the weekend?"

She nodded.

Soon, the workday had to start and Eun Ju came in. She stared at Jin Ah intently. "Did you have a facial yesterday?"

"Hmm?"

"Your skin looks different."

"My skin?"

Eun Ju nodded. "Your skin is glowing."

Jin Ah smiled and bit her lip. "Really? Probably just the great weather."

Eun Ju stared at the overcast sky and the dreary streets of city. But before she could comment, she saw the Head of Sales walking towards the cubicle. She excused herself but Ji Sung stopped her, "I won't be long. Just dropping something off." To Jin Ah, he said, "Here is the new job request our department needs for a new campaign. All signed, way before your deadline."

Jin Ah rolled her eyes then giggled.

"And this is lunch for you. Eat your ramyeon. I'll see you."
