EP.2 When the Team Leader Is Obsessed, There’s a Lot of Overtime-5
by Shini
When the Team Leader is Obsessed, There are Many Late Nights.
Ah, LOL, looks like I’m gonna die again.
This kind of kill angle… maybe I’m getting used to it?
The presence hadn’t disappeared yet. Rather, I felt the weight on the door as if they were pressing their body even closer.
‘I can’t sleep in this state.’
Yeah, either way, it’s an unavoidable situation.
As soon as I flung the door open, Lee Mina, who was pressed right against it, was thrown off balance.
“Ugh!”
Lee Mina, who had fallen on her butt, looked up at me. Her face was still a poker face, but she couldn’t hide the fact that her eyes had grown wide.
“Oh? Mina-nim. What are you doing here?”
As if I didn’t know, I offered her my hand.
Lee Mina hesitated for a moment before taking my hand.
“Ah, well… you said Inho-ssi wasn’t feeling well. So, I brought some porridge.”
No, I saw you eating gukbap, you woman. And it’s past 11 o’clock now….
“……..”
Her excuse is too clumsy.
As if she sensed what my gaze was saying, she just shoved the bag with the porridge into my arms.
“J-Just in case… And Inho-ssi.”
“Yes?”
“Um… do you usually dress like that at home?”
She covered her face with her hand and asked in a barely audible voice.
“Huh?”
Only then could I check my appearance.
A stretched-out tank top, boxer briefs.
She couldn’t take her eyes off my exposed collarbone.
“Ah… um, ah, I’m sorry… I’m just so comfortable at home.”
“Ah, I see. It doesn’t seem like [you used to] be like that.”
How do you know that?
An awkward silence followed her words.
She seemed embarrassed, constantly glancing at my body and swallowing hard, and I didn’t know what to say since I didn’t know anything.
“Anyway, thank you for coming. I’ll enjoy this tomorrow.”
“Um, Inho-ssi. Are you doing anything tomorrow?”
“Well, I don’t really have any plans. I’m just going to stay home. I’m not feeling well either.”
Actually, I’m thinking of going to the office. I need to quietly understand the work without being disturbed.
“I see… I understand. Then, I’ll see you on Monday.”
“Yes. Go in safely.”
I closed the door and stood still for a moment.
The presence in front of the door soon disappeared.
“Phew… that was a close call.”
Ten years. You’re scaring people.
Weekend. Saturday.
If it were the usual me, I would have woken up late and started the day watching YouTube.
But I was doing weekend work that wasn’t in my destiny.
“Ah… it’s hard to make a living.”
When will I learn the work again?
I bought coffee and a bagel to eat simply and entered the office, where the empty space greeted me.
“Okay… what kind of work did I do?”
I turned on the computer, checked my emails, and looked at the proposals I had submitted.
Four hours passed doing that.
“Um… I still don’t understand.”
I put a pen in my mouth, leaned back in my chair, and looked at the ceiling.
Wow, this is overwhelming. I don’t understand anything.
Ugh, let’s just change jobs. I’d be good at what I used to do.
“Ugh… what kind of hardship is this? Damn pigeon. If I ever meet you, I’ll definitely kill you.”
I turned on a job search site in a fit of anger and was hit with reality.
She killed me while talking about the balance of dimensions or something, and ruined a person’s life just because I said something a little harsh.
When you die, you Dimensional Shift to another dimension.
Then, how do you escape this Dimensional Shift? Do you have to die of old age?
Or, like Sisyphus’s rock, will I continue to live as an eternal punishment?
Well… I’ll know if I die more.
Every time I Dimensional Shift, it tells me some kind of rule. Someday, the day will come when I know all the rules.
But, I won’t die easily.
With that determination, I went to the bathroom for a moment. I washed my face with cold water and strengthened my resolve.
“Huh?”
When I returned to the office, someone was sitting in my seat.
What, without any manners.
I slowly approached.
Someone sitting in the seat was holding the mouse and staring intently at the internet window.
“…Traitor…”
I felt a chill from the low-pitched voice.
As if sensing my presence, the intruder occupying the seat slowly turned around.
“Why… did you… lie?”
Blood flowed from her crushed lips, and her eyes were bloodshot.
I had only seen her for a day, but it was the first time I had seen her so disheveled.
“Mina… nim?”
“Liar. Liar.”
She slowly got up and grabbed my collar.
