“He’s the worst guy I have ever met in my whole life!!!!”
Janine ranted as Johann watched her with a big smile on his face. She didn’t know why he is smiling. Is he celebrating for someone’s misfortune? Huh!
“Don’t smile at me!” She whined as she pouted and crossed her arms across her chest.
Johann chuckled from the screen. “Come on! Your boss can’t be that bad!” He beamed, trying to cheer her up. As much as Janine looks really cute and sexy when she’s mad, he doesn’t want to see her stressed and agitated with her annoyance in someone else.
Heck, Johann is jealous with even that tinsy bit of attention that Janine is giving on someone.
Janine rolled her eyes. Well, what does Johann know anyway? Of course he doesn’t know that she almost got run by a car by this same person. She didn’t want to tell him because if she did, then, Johann will be the one ranting on h
“Do you understand, Ms. Kwon?”Mr. Han, the disciplinary officer in the company, asked Janine.Janine nodded, half-heartedly. She still doesn’t get why she has to write a real Letter of Apology when in fact, she’s the victim here. How could someone, let alone a supervisor, aim to do that? She’s not his secretary for crying out loud.Mr. Han sighed as he kept the Letter of Apology that Janine made. The first one made L mad so, he reported it to the disciplinary council – to Janine’s displeasure, of course.“Okay,” he told her. “You may go now.” Then he continued to examine some papers.Janine sighed and bowed before him before leaving his office.As she came out of the door, she already saw Porter smirking on her. She immediately felt the urge to kick him in the balls. He’s so despicable! How could he be this evil?“Went well?” Porter asked her. His voi
“Janine Kwon, get me a copy of the agenda for the meeting later.”“Janine Kwon, please get these papers photocopied.”“Janine Kwon, please call Ms. Kim for the minutes of the meeting last Thursday.”“Janine Kw—”Janine shut her eyes in frustration as Porter Kim continued to order her around. When will he even understand that she is not his slave or something? Doesn’t he have a secretary for a reason?She muttered another string of curses under her breath as she stood up from her desk and followed his orders. What can she do? If she didn’t, then, this devil would report her to the disciplinary council and would write another letter of apology again. And she knows that when one writes up an apology letter up to three times, it would mean a 3-day suspension.She sighed to herself while walking to Ms. Kim’s office. Since when has she felt like this? Since when has she felt a
“How was work?” Kellan asked Porter as all seven of them huddled in their living room while watching the Asian Games.Porter shrugged. “Same old stuffs. Boring.” He replied nonchalantly while his eyes are still on the television. To be honest, his work as a supervisor is routinely. He would check on the stocks of the previous deals and make a report about it. After that, he’ll just have to ask his secretary about his agenda for the day and then poof! He’s done.This kind of work never really kept Porter interested.Hunter snickered. “Well, we don’t really know what interests you, Porter.” He told him. “You don’t like girls. You don’t like work. You don’t like anything at all.” He finished making the other members laugh at him.Porter glared at Hunter and sighed to himself as he continued to watch on the screen.Well, Hunter’s words are true. Porter doesn&rsquo
Porter was trying to get back to his old self – his despicable-to-Janine self – after being able to be that close to her. He was trying to shake the feeling off because he shouldn’t feel it. He shouldn’t be moved by mere closeness. Heck, he shouldn’t be wavered.He told her that he would wait for her outside because he just couldn’t bring himself to get back to proper breathing, proper heart beating and proper complexion.How could Janine Kwon, the girl that he pisses off every day, be the reason for this feeling?“No, Porter.” He muttered to himself. “It’s just because you haven’t been that close to a girl for long that your heart skipped a beat like that.” He shut his eyes and tried to convince himself.Porter is not the type to party unlike his friends. Well, one, he is not interested and two, he doesn’t like loud places.Porter’s a downright dork and he knows th
“What are you doing today, baby love?”Johann was all smiles at Janine as they skyped this early Saturday. They had not talked the night before because Janine got home late due to the shortage of cabs last night.Her shopping with Porter ended at 8PM and she waited until 10PM for a cab because, apparently, there were a lot of people waiting for a cab. For a second, she regretted not asking Porter to drive her home. But on second thought, why would she? More time with L would mean more time to get pissed. Hence, more time to get herself into bad mood.So she waited until 10PM and missed Skype with Johann.Janine chewed on the brownie that her roommate, Henney, baked before leaving for her own Team Building with her department.“Nothing much,” she replied while munching the brownies down. “Maybe I’ll just sleep it off all day to catch up on my sleep-deprived nights.” She grinned.Johann frowned at her.
“Is everyone here yet?” Porter asked Jonas as the other employees under his department boarded on the bus.Porter’s department would be undergoing their very own Team Building for the weekend. Everyone is so psyched about this – even those girls who were grunting in disapproval when Porter announced the theme of the team building.“Not yet, Sir.” Jonas replied.Porter sighed and clucked his tongue. It was already almost 7AM and they all agreed to meet before 7. “Who else is not here yet?” He asked as he tried to calm himself.Of all the things and traits that Porter disliked, he dislikes tardiness the most.“Manager Kwon isn’t here yet.” Jonas replied as he looked at the employees slowly getting into the bus. He was checking each employee’s presence. “She’s the only one.” He concluded as every employee had boarded the bus.Porter felt his blood rising w
The group was divided into two teams for the games and the tasks. One team is in charge for the cooking and the other group is for looking of food and the logs to be used for fire.Apparently, Janine was feeling really irked off that she had to be in the same team as this arrogant supervisor. She isn’t that choosy to what group she had to be in but this one. She didn’t want to be anywhere near Porter Kim and she knows that everyone in the group knows that too!Yasmin walked to her to ask if she’s alright – probably because Yasmin is not in the same group as her – to be in the same group with her ‘Most Hated Person’.“I’m just going to endure for this weekend.” Janine beamed and Yasmin nodded. To be honest, no matter how much Janine repels, she couldn’t do anything. The grouping was random. It was a fishbowl technique and everyone was a witness of how the draw-lots was done.Yasmin patted Ja
Porter was busy staring at Janine’s face while waiting for someone to find them and get them back to the camp. To be honest, Porter could just carry Janine back to the camp and lay her to a more comfortable place but he just couldn’t risk it. This is a forest and who knows what creatures are roaming around them now.Janine’s already sick. He didn’t want to put her to a more risk.Porter sighed to himself as he unconsciously strokes the back of his hand on Janine’s face. “Porter Kim,” he chuckled weakly to himself. “You are one funny guy. You can’t just like a person as fast as that.” He spoke weakly and softly.He was taken aback when Janine stirred in her sleep. She was mumbling some words, or rather calling some names, but Porter couldn’t decipher. Was it the name of her lover? He didn’t know. And to be honest, he didn’t want to care.But there is this growing feeling insi
