At that moment.
Su Ah, who was in the convenience store, was just as tense as Ha Joon.
She stood in front of the mirror installed on the convenience store pillar, turning her head left and right to check if anything was stuck on her, thoroughly checking even the things wedged in between.
Why am I so nervous?
She kept telling herself it was nothing, trying to calm her heart, but as the time of his arrival approached, the tension began to surge.
[Do your best. Do you know? Love might sprout in a convenience store.] The words of Da Eun, thrown teasingly, kept ringing in her ears.Ah, really. Why did she say such things and stir people’s hearts…
She hadn’t even faced him yet, but the mere thought of being in the same space made her fingertips start to tingle.
Ding dong.
At the sound of the bell, Su Ah’s gaze quickly turned towards the front door.
It was a customer. Ha… It felt like her heart had sunk.
Ee Su Ah! Why are you so nervous? Don’t do this. Don’t do this. It’s nothing. He is a stone. A stone.
Once again, ding dong.
“Welcome…”
Gasp! It’s the stone. An excessively handsome stone.
“Hello, Su Ah.”
Su Ah’s gaze turned to Ha Joon, who was standing next to Ji Hoon, who was greeting her warmly.
Was it because it was the weekend? It was a style of clothing she had not seen him wear before.
He even looks good in such casual clothes. Then again, there would be no clothes that wouldn’t suit that visual.
“Do you remember what I told you last week? You’ll be helping in my place today and tomorrow.”
“Yes, I know. Hello.”
Su Ah greeted him as if she was meeting him for the first time.
“Oh, hello.”
Ha Joon also greeted her with an awkward smile.
Ah, his voice. It feels like my heart is melting.
Trying to calm her pounding heart, Su Ah greeted him again.
“I look forward to working with you for these two days.”
“Yes, I also look forward to working with you.”
Cute ones……
Ji Hoon, who had been watching the two people exchanging awkward greetings towards each other, seemed to find it amusing and chuckled.
“Then, I’m leaving for training. Don’t bully our Ha Joon just because I’m not here, and get along well.”
“Yes, we will do our best to get along well. Don’t worry and go ahead.”
“I hope you will do your best for the other side as well.”
“Excuse me? What did you say?”
At Ji Hoon’s mumbling, Su Ah perked up her ears and asked.
“Oh, no, just… teach him well. He’s such an FM guy that he doesn’t know anything outside of his current job. But be kind to him, don’t bully him. And don’t hit him! Got it?”
“I will. No bullying. No hitting. I’ll keep that in mind.”
At Ji Hoon’s playful joke, Su Ah burst into laughter.
Upon hearing their conversation, Ha Joon’s eyebrows twitched.
It was a clear sign of dissatisfaction that he couldn’t say a word in the conversation about him.
“I’ll be back. Min Ha Joon! You should learn well from Su Ah too.”
“Yeah, have a good trip.”
‘You’re coming back soon, right? Right?’
Contrary to his farewell words, Ha Joon’s gaze at Ji Hoon was wistful and desperate.
He looked like a baby lion left alone in the wild.
Why does that retreating figure look so excited? It’s just my imagination, right?
From the retreating figure of Ji Hoon, who was walking away lightly, it seemed as if a humming song could faintly be heard.
“Thank you for coming to help.”
Su Ah said.
“Oh, no. Of course, I should help.”
The word “of course” seemed to indicate the closeness between the two.
“You must be very close with the store manager.”
It’s not him. What I meant was you, Ee Su Ah.
Regardless, Ha Joon just smiled subtly.
“What should I start with?”
Ha Joon asked as he rolled up his sleeves.
“No, you didn’t come here to work.”
“I did come to work. I plan to earn my fair share from Ji Hoon, so I’ll work hard.”
[Get to know her better in these two days. After that, I will take responsibility for arranging a meal or a drink.]
Ha Joon decided to do his best to help Su Ah for two days, putting his worries and concerns aside for a while.
If he could earn a meal with Su Ah as a reward, that would be more than enough.
“Oh, so you’ve decided to take a parttime wage. Then I can ask you without any burden.”
“Yes. Don’t feel burdened and ask me anything you want.”
Su Ah had misunderstood again, but it wasn’t something that Ha Joon particularly cared about.
“Well, I’ll start by teaching you how to calculate.”
Su Ah, marveling at Ha Joon’s overly serious demeanor, headed towards the cash register.
“This machine is called a POS, and you, Ha Joon, will have to use these two POS machines. We have to match the price when we settle later, so you should only use the POS assigned to you.”
After explaining about the POS, Su Ah picked up a snack bag that was next to her and showed him the back.
“You see this barcode? You have to scan it like this with this machine.”
As Su Ah held the barcode scanner, a ‘beep’ sound rang out and the price of the snack appeared on the monitor.
“Now, Ha Joon, it’s your turn.”
Su Ah, with a faint smile, handed over the barcode scanner.
Barcode……
