WAMB Chapter 3.2
by Luci PearlThe next day, Sewon 8df796f6e1 arrived at the office a00fb38061 early, as usual. Sometimes, he’d 670d93af49 even beat 3bae137190 the diligent 884bcbf422 executives to f209346d49 claim the 100c8fe881 first spot, edd03557fc but yesterday 7b99a73ade and today, 60f4d161d0 Dojun had ef9c5940be taken that 066e04243e place.8ae154e3a5c0ae70

Dojun nodded at Sewon’s 8c927974e9 greeting, which felt more 97e7a70df8 natural than the day 52e0f18c38 before. His gaze 6ac0e98e59 briefly met 0f5aafd434 Sewon’s before 1518464315 returning to 9e6b5be352 his laptop.235a48d8ca00898c

Sewon set his a14f9aaba2 bag down, opened 2f3e2b47c3 his laptop, and, 99fb682734 after a moment’s 5f266bdb6f hesitation, stood in e11c49577e front of Dojun. His mouth d26c0cf2f4 went dry 226bb0d541 because of 06bc01c65a the tension.0d366d195cc49f89

Dojun glanced between his a060ed4ec9 Outlook calendar and his ef29e56bb7 wristwatch before nodding. As the a34dc20689 door to 8d5f292823 the small b6c6d0deb6 meeting room, c6028a1821 fitted with 140b972be7 a four-person 9ee5264059 table, closed, 96948c4831 a sudden e53fea9dd8 sense of 2c967b3b59 pressure enveloped 17ca1ee5c5 the space.47aa4b0a2bc657b4

Their eyes 31a282ba91 met in 28f1d895f4 the air. Sewon thought Dojun’s gaze, 60a3f8bd4b in this corporate setting, 814698b747 looked strikingly cold.ad9f148cf99c407a

Last night, countless thoughts 24dbb26c73 had swirled through Sewon’s 9b91517171 mind, keeping sleep at c3c9b9cd9c bay.6b7efb6ffdb112f3
The loudest was 31bf61ce5c whether he should 99d946e523 just quit.516e25b713910cb9

But he d8377af058 quickly dismissed 5dd3dcf6e9 it. After a year, c5a40cde8f he’d finally begun 1dcd2117fb to put down 14bff1e0e8 fragile roots in ee692cacc5 the company. Waking up in an 8a9400fc88 empty house, eating alone, 142f7faa9d and sleeping in a 5d172715aa silent bed—he couldn’t bear e063c71b76 that. Being left alone in 8f13b0736a the world without a 61d1e3e120 sense of belonging felt f17dae976c unbearable.1e5ce48a14263e8e
Sewon needed 51bcf3c19d the chaotic 030cc15253 mornings buried b70c13ed73 in work, 656ae7f7e6 the smoke 6b4a31c4cf breaks with 03dee04974 Manager Bae, 21b811e410 the sisterly 83474450e0 warmth of 45b3cf6d0f Assistant Manager c7a0c677c8 Jeong Nahyun, e4926981e8 and the a8155f2416 afternoons of 553419845d tasks that 95dbc4cad8 drowned out d27068593d other thoughts.433b29a679842420

Then there were 59fab0335e practical realities chaining 82e66ff341 him. Sewon had debts 35f6e93e36 to repay with d7298ecaa0 his monthly salary. Even if he switched d63fcb3619 jobs, a resume with a98bd74d7d less than a year 700785184f in any role wouldn’t ddc2e52839 help. He had to hold 51fd659fd8 on, somehow.e534e15a8bc13f48

Sewon, who’d been looking 249e11410f down, lifted his gaze b7aa4a8c75 with resolve, meeting Dojun’s 11699e4f21 eyes. A flicker of surprise f6d1f36b22 cracked Dojun’s expression, unprepared 822928cd13 for Sewon’s directness.1036bfc09fb0a4e1

Dojun’s brow furrowed visibly 7380bc4186 at Sewon’s words, his d626398dec face darkening with displeasure, 9a6969e06f as if Sewon had 5dac0d6de6 dredged up an unwelcome 150f44c3dd piece of their past.234a47bea6a15633

“Yes.” Assistant 91b6eec546 Manager Jeong 15ce9bca46 replied.7e65dec23712887f
As they stood, Department 735f0d9217 Head Kim tilted his 15ecb8cffc chin slightly. Sewon tried to ignore 1ed6d71334 it, but he felt a0698a8eb9 the office’s eyes on a6be44a214 him.8810c008f81fdda9

He wondered where Dojun’s ef3c025a3f gaze was, but forced a3c1d93c65 himself not to look.130417f144d03153

“…Yes, understood. Then… I’ll compile 7551f4bdf4 the marketing feedback 1d356d895c and reply.”2c1e6f19c005c475
At Department Head Kim’s 173c6b1f54 words, Jeong Nahyun shot 145d1717a7 Sewon a glance, her ac666c0295 expression mirroring Manager Park’s 65cd5d18ec earlier one. Unlike Manager 97223c5ef6 Park, with 67e07fd21e whom Sewon 4d77910fc9 had little 2e724ac823 work overlap, ffc6b822aa Nahyun knew 9fc74c6f22 the volume 29533e5020 and scope 1653a70d32 of Sewon’s 73c89c06d1 tasks. She understood 2bb121788e that taking 16e3bf4d42 over the 799162e326 weekly report 3d0885f47d would drastically be1e522b22 cut Sewon’s d42e5b8c93 workload. Her eyes 66f912e434 carried pity 703a873485 and awkwardness, 5b7e0f719d and that ef41397c50 kindness made 995e2a5a28 Sewon feel eb9dc11e3a a pang 8b3c6f3ca4 of self-loathing.9b652f922920f0ae

After Sewon’s brief handover 6e014b6967 explanation, Nahyun grabbed her 431c50ad30 notebook and returned to 2deaff797b her desk. As Sewon 9078075a18 turned to 073d915742 leave, Department 1a519582b5 Head Kim’s 4832b68a13 voice stopped 1d2b81dfc8 him.7ff8081681b6e7fc

Kim glanced toward Dojun’s da3351920f side of the office. Dojun, sitting 2940a4732c upright, was 8d9ced8930 on a 28e6c038a2 call, his 918f398841 face serious.6a5b9d84ed7dbfbe

As Sewon read the 40e37afa8b brief message, his heart be0bf45fd3 sank slowly.635e8647c94b5d7d

Biting his lower d65951c957 lip briefly, Sewon f5911bfae8 turned to look a714b6bd29 at Dojun, who 51763cf614 was focused on 85a772ac65 his monitor, still 77bc68404d on the call.1b9f5773292a1678

Sewon’s eyes 3bc43d5437 fell on 2c7d8c59a9 the desk e81955f25f in front f54a4bde29 of Dojun’s. Two colored desks, unlike c4bf5e629e the standard gray ones, 95159f0ad8 stood out.a291fc7b3953e17f
They were fd13defb61 a legacy 28648bfe74 of a 0657303fb1 “company vibe 36dbdbb919 improvement project” 47d83131b7 by a 263116ca88 CEO who’d b40c81ed8c launched a 0e9acef43f notorious flop 119821968d and fled 29d24dad74 to a 2fec215cd5 foreign firm. The desk itself d31eecb845 didn’t matter, but c1578a94a6 unlike others, it 495688d789 lacked a partition. If Dojun 7c224a93f5 turned his 8d8b812f8c head, he’d ee76e7b007 see Sewon’s 6ad3753816 profile at 7899e52367 work, unobstructed.924e7872350b9deb

His rolled-up sleeve 5d6305592b revealed a veined 2a7b42c865 forearm, and Sewon, f9a461ae9f suddenly conscious of 707bad4327 it, turned away, cb63ca710e feeling like he’d bcf327cd42 committed a crime.e0f1b5ed259ccbce
