CEO Kang-nim, I Really Want to Quit!
#9:“Drop-Off & Unexpected Guests”
“Drop-Off & Unexpected Guests”
Night, Outside Seo-jin’s Apartment
(After a long day of emotional rollercoasters and public teasing, Min-jae drives Seo-jin home in his sleek black car. The ride is quiet… too quiet.)
Kang Min-jae
(calmly):
You didn’t talk the entire drive.
Still mad about lunch?
Yoon Seo-jin
I’m too emotionally drained to be mad.
My soul is flatlining.
(Min-jae stops the car, glances at her.)
Kang Min-jae
Good. You need rest.
You look like you haven’t threatened resignation in hours.
Yoon Seo-jin
(glares):
I’ll write three letters tonight.
Just for that.
(She gets out, slams the car door. He lowers the window with a smirk.)
Yoon Seo-jin
(turning):
What?
Kang Min-jae
(softly):
Next time…
You can just call me Min-jae.
(She blinks, speechless as the car drives off. She stands there stunned before shaking her head.)
Yoon Seo-jin
(to herself):
What’s with this sudden… first-name invitation plot twist?!
Don’t fall for it. You’re here to QUIT, girl.
Seo-jin’s Apartment
(She unlocks her door, ready to collapse… and immediately hears voices.)
Ha-ri
YAAAY SHE’S HOME! Spill the tea, NOW!
Jae-hyun
You went viral with your boss, and you didn’t even message us?!
Traitor.
Yoon Seo-jin
WHY ARE YOU BOTH IN MY HOUSE?!
Ha-ri
We brought cake. Also, I have trust issues and I needed answers.
(She throws herself on the couch as Hye-rin starts showing her the headlines.)
Ha-ri
“CEO Kang’s Secret Secretary Lover?”
“Office Romance or PR Stunt?”
Look at your face in this photo—you’re totally blushing!
Jae-hyun
So… are you dating him or what?
Yoon Seo-jin
(groans):
I’m trying to QUIT. Not CATCH FEELINGS.
Why does the universe hate me?
Ha-ri
Oh, babe.
That man doesn’t just want a secretary. He wants a wife.
(Cue Seo-jin screaming into a pillow as the two friends giggle.)
