Jinhyeon paused for a moment before asking Myeongeun, “Why do you think I’m being so open about my family matters with you, Myeongeun-ssi?” From the moment Jinhyeon called him until now, Myeongeun had suspected the reason. He was being silenced. What happened yesterday couldn’t be explained logically or scientifically. Jinhyeon knew that too. Seeing Myeongeun’s response to the events, Jinhyeon probably judged that it was better to be frank, as Myeongeun seemed to have some understanding of…-

— “I understand. If you’re free right now, can we meet for a moment at the cafeteria on the 10th floor?” Coincidentally, Myeongeun needed to check on the cafeteria today since he’d sent an email to all employees yesterday about cafeteria guidelines. “Sure, I’ll head down right away.” He hung up the phone and told Kim Junyoung, “I’ll go down to the cafeteria and check things.” Kim Junyoung looked pleased, as if he’d scored an unexpected bonus, and replied with a quick,…

It felt like a whole year’s worth of work had crammed into a single day, starting from the morning. Myeongeun was exhausted. He thought he’d fall asleep the moment he got in the taxi, but on the way home, he just leaned back against the seat, staring blankly out the window. When he got home, the hot water that had been acting up in the morning was working just fine. He figured a warm shower would make him sleepy, but even after warming up and lying on his cozy bed, sleep didn’t come. Myeongeun…

When Go Myeongeun looked at him with a questioning gaze, Kwon Jinhwan spoke up. “It’s funny that you call San Ho ‘Mr.’ like that. He’s still young.” As Myeongeun was fitting a key into the padlock on the metal gate of the warehouse, he shot a glance at Jinhwan. “Young?” “Yeah, really young. His appetite is huge, and if you’re not careful, he’ll try to eat just about anything. He’s still young and lacks self-control in many ways.” Apparently, Jinhwan had to tell him…

Jinhwan had said that the Mountain Lord’s child would bring the messengers. Following San Ho, an immense pressure twisted the air around the wall, distorting space as if it were crushing everything in its path. The overwhelming presence, as massive as a mountain, brought with it a fierce gust. To Myeongeun, this presence was invisible. All he could see was Jinhwan’s long parka, its hood fur flapping wildly in the wind. In that blustering gale, Jinhwan stood calmly, holding down his baseball cap…

The manager dashed out to greet the two men. “Hello, Manager.” It was Deputy Team Leader Kwon Jinhyeok and Deputy Head Manager Kwon Jinhyeon. After greeting Kwon Jinhyeon, Kwon Jinhyeok exchanged pleasantries with the manager, asking, “How have you been lately?” In between keeping an eye on Kim Junyoung, Myeongeun admired the two brothers’ handsome faces. Ah, they look good as always. Thanks to them, the anger he’d been harboring over Kim Junyoung slowly faded, and a sense of…

Was it obvious? From where? I just thought, “Oh, his face is quite neat,” and that was it. Was there something strange in my expression? Maybe I shouldn’t have mentioned occasionally doing face masks at home? Or is it because I rarely join gatherings with other guys? But, seriously, why should I even be there when the only topics they discuss are stocks, investing, real estate, sports, golf, baseball, and women? Why do I need to be part of that just to have stories like, “Oh, yeah, I went to a…

“Shh.” Suddenly, Jinhyeon raised a hand, signaling them to stop. His eyes moved as if he were straining to catch a faint sound in the distance. “Stay still,” he whispered softly. Then, it happened. Thud! Myeongeun felt his whole body suddenly grow heavy. Or, was he floating? Confused, he looked down at himself and at the hairpin resting in his palm. Thud! Thud! The sensation reverberated through his heart and mind, as if his entire body was pulsing. The hairpin trembled slightly,…

“Yes. I said I’d take the delivery when it arrives.” “But…” Myeongeun rolled his eyes and sneaked a glance at Jinhyeon, who simply shrugged with his arms crossed and a smile on his face. He was the very embodiment of a bystander. “But Deputy Team Leader, you don’t know the procedures.” “I’ll receive it, check the quantities, and make a record. Assistant Manager Go, you can come verify afterward.” In the end, this just meant I’d have to inspect it again. It wasn’t…

Without even looking at Myeongeun, he sent a message to someone and spoke. "Is it just you here?" "Yes. Everyone else has left for the day." The man finished sending his message and put his phone into the pocket of his jacket. "I don’t think so." He spoke, taking off the hood of his jacket. "Being alone, I mean." Myeongeun blinked. He glanced around the office and then back at the man. He was definitely alone. Thinking this over, Myeongeun glanced down at the man's feet. The man was…
