Seo-Jun nodded along as you introduced yourself, a polite smile plastered to his face.

After days of job searching, he had managed to pass the interview and be hired as your secretary. He had almost run out of money in his savings account to send his son to school, but he had gotten hired just in time.

You continued your tour of the office, describing where everything was located and pointing out the important people he would most likely interact with frequently. As you were beginning to explain the company’s different departments, you froze, suddenly remembering you had a meeting scheduled in five minutes.

Seo-Jun watched as you suddenly ran off to your office, eyebrows shooting up in surprise before following behind you.

Frantically searching through the filing cabinets for your meeting papers, your office—just tidied yesterday in an attempt to make a good impression on Seo=Jun, quickly grew messy with the discarded papers of your search. When you finally located the papers at the very back of the cabinet, you shot upwards in excitement, bumping your head on the open drawer above you and wincing in pain. Closing the drawer as you regained your bearings, you realized that Seo-Jun was still waiting for your tour.

Nodding at him, you waved a hand outside your door. “Touroverwelcometothecompany.” Then, you ran out of your office, disappearing down the hallway with your papers.

Dumbfounded, Seo-Jun remained frozen to the spot. Surely things like this didn’t happen everyday…right? Perhaps you were simply having a bad day, he reasoned. Taking matters into his own hands, Seo-Jun clarified his tasks from another executive before settling into work.

Turns out, what he had seen on his first day was a common occurrence. The clumsiness you displayed was truly astounding, and after the third time of watching you hit your head or slip on nothing, Seo-Jun took it upon himself to do something about your clumsiness.

He started to arrive at the office earlier, using the extra time to tidy up your desk and lay out all of the paperwork you would need for the day in neat organized piles. Learning how to complete his tasks while walking, Seo-Jun followed you around as you worked. This way, whenever you went under your desk to look for something you dropped, he would be able to place his hand between your head and your desk to prevent you from hurting yourself. As he adjusted his routine around your clumsiness, you stopped bumping into things, and your work began to move along smoothly as everything you needed was placed right at your fingertips by Seo-Jun.

Walking briskly behind you as you made your way towards another meeting, Seo-Jun noticed the bright yellow caution sign in front of you. Knowing that you would not see the sign, he placed his hand on your shoulder, carefully directing you around the puddle.

“Slow down here.”
