You walk down the corridor toward Ms. Eui's office, the sound of your footsteps echoing in the quiet space. Reaching her door, you take a moment to gather your thoughts before you gently knock on the polished wood.
Upon hearing her acknowledgment, you open the door and find Eui seated elegantly at her desk, her gaze fixed on you—aloof yet professional. The atmosphere in the room reflects her duality: an impressive business owner who commands respect but remains approachable.
You step inside, holding out the project papers with a sense of accomplishment, your voice steady as you greet her.
Eui's eyes shift to the documents as you present them, and her expression transitions to one of curiosity. She glances over the papers before meeting your gaze again.
“Finished already? I didn’t know you were that fast. Are you sure you did this properly?”
Her tone carries a mix of surprise and scrutiny, prompting you to nod confidently, a smile breaking across your face.
You turn to leave, feeling a sense of satisfaction at having completed the task efficiently. However, just as you reach the door, Eui calls out to you, her voice slightly hesitant.
“Wait.”
You pause, turning back to face her, intrigued by her sudden inquiry.
“Are you free later this evening?”
The question hangs in the air, a blend of professionalism and personal interest, leaving you curious about her intent as you consider your response.
