Strongest Kim Min-Ja 1
Opening her eyes, in an unfamiliar place.
The first thing Mija saw was a large full-length mirror in front of the bed. The owner of this room seemed to have a pretty narcissistic mindset.
Just pervertic.
The mirror has a luxurious look and makeup.
A thirty-year-old woman who smeared ugly and a man who fell asleep defenselessly with his back exposed.
Wait, man? A man! What the hell have I done?’
With trembling hands, Mija touched the man’s hair that covered his face. At that moment, the man wriggled in his sleep.
‘Ugh!’
She stopped breathing, and fingers stopped midway.
Holding onto her head, Mija let out a silent scream.
‘What should I do? What do you do?’
Mija felt sorry for the one asleep. Anyways, the conclusion was the same: To escape!
It was better to not know his identity for the rest of her life, rather than to say good morning in an embarrassing situation.
She carefully crawled over the bed to not awaken the man.
While crawling down, she tried to recall who that man might be.
‘After work, I drank at the company dinner, and came out of karaoke…Who did I meet?’
She couldn’t remember anything since then.
After thinking, Mija was finally about to take my right foot off the bed. But suddenly, the large and hot hands caught her ankle.
“Ahhh!”
An irresistible scream left her mouth.
The mirror reflected the well-developed chest muscles and abs without any filtration.
Her gaze was instinctive.
Quickly blew past from the chest to coveted Adams Apple, revealing the long-awaited face!
With wide eyes, she stared frantically at the man’s face.
‘Yeah, it must be a dream. Does it make sense that the face of a person who just woke up to be so perfect?’
Unlike Mija who was nervous, the man swept back his loose hair.
Soon after, the red lips opened seductively.
“It’s a holiday. You don’t have to rush.”
The line was too realistic to be dismissed as a dream.
Fiercely denying the reality, he gently swept the nape of her neck.
Goosebumps grew on Mija along with the touch.
Unfortunately, this unusual good-looking face was the man whom Mija encounters five days a week.
“Are you right now? Last night was a lot.”
‘What? Why would you do that?’
“You look good now.”
Mija stared at him in an awkward position with a pair of legs caught.
“There… How can this be…I remember I was in charge of SoMac at karaoke…whirlwind… I threw tissue at the wall….So… So why are you.”
What she really wanted to say was something else.
“Dog Team Leader, no, Team Leader Kang, why are you here?”
[Editor notes: Dog and Kang sound similar in Korean. The nickname used here is a play of words.]
Team Leader Kang’s cold eyes seemed to be even colder today.
“Are you asking me the reason now, Ms. Kim Mija?”
In a suppressed voice, Team Leader Kang called Kim Mi-Ja instead of Deputy Kim, which was her job title.
That meant that he was extremely angry. That was the moment when the crazy man got even crazier.
‘Work, head. Remember!’
After being cornered, the scenes of last night flashed past Mija.
‘On the dazzling street lights of Neon, Team Leader Kang was telling me something. The half-tilted shoulder looked very sexy (OMG!). I stumbled and clung to his forearm. Team leader Kang was trying to push me away. The more he did, the more I hung on, and finally, I held onto his waist…,
‘Let’s stop thinking now! It’s probably a delusion.
‘Oh, no. I couldn’t have done anything to the Dog Team Leader since I was starved. The opponent is a Dog Team Leader, not anyone. Hahahahahaha.’
Mija told Team Leader Kang with a strong message that it shouldn’t be.
“Perhaps…… Did I act rudely to Team Leader Kang? I remember…”
Team Leader Kang’s hand grasped her and naturally put strength into them. Mija’s red face turned white.
“I remember it very well! It’s vivid. It’s not anyone, but you, Team Leader Kang.”
As Mija’s eyes turned to an important area, Team Leader Kang’s face grew more rotten.
“Do you really remember everything?”
“Radish, water… Of course.”
Team Leader Kang was usually referred to as ‘Dog Team Leader’ because of his unique personality.
The Dog Team Leader was like gum among the employees. Chewing and chewing and chewing again.
There were areas where such employees couldn’t chew and precisely touch. It was rumored that he was very crafty.
It seemed like a very credible rumor since there was a significant number of beauties joining the company.
‘I hoped that there would be no way to confirm this rumor forever.
‘I would never spend another night with him again. Last night’s memory would also be sealed indefinitely.’
Team Leader Kang’s face, which has always been angry, changed gently.
The corners of his mouth, which closed tightly, rose mildly and folded his eyes.
“What’s with that bloody look on his face? Are you sure you are laughing?”
The bright smile that Mija had never seen before gave me creeps. Please don’t laugh!
“Then, you know what to do in the future.”
His voice was gentle as a wild beast. Everything was perfect. But to Mija, who has been suffering for a long time…
It sounded like a threat that he would not hook off if she bragged.
“Sure. Don’t worry.”
That was exactly what she wanted. Last night could be in the world of adults.
It was either just a common thing or nightmare.
“All right. Then let’s start. Today, no, yesterday, we’re going out.”
“Yes!”
Mija replied brightly and cheerfully when she was told to do something that wasn’t there from yesterday.
“But, what’s with all this grumpiness? It’s like you’ve heard something terrible.”
“It’s probably because of the mood.”
Team Leader Kang returned to an expressionless face as always. However, his voice remains gentle and kind.
“Take a shower first. It seems urgent to wash up.”
It was a very gentle tone, but it sounded a threat to Mija that he would skin her skin off right away if she didn’t.
She covered herself in a blanket and ran to what was supposed to be a bathroom.
The dryer had her coat from yesterday.
‘Running the washing machine in the meantime! I’m sick of crappy humans.’
Mija quickly finished her shower and came out in crumpled clothes.
“Then, I’ll go back.”
“I will drive you home.”
“No, it’s okay.”
“Do you know where we are?”
“Oh, I have a cell phone. So it’s no problem. I’ll search on this”
His cool eyes shifted from her to her cell phone.
Mija quickly hid her phone behind her back and continued.
“It’s very convenient to take you there rather than to search. Anyway. Team Leader Kang, I am very honored.”
She quickly put a peculiar posture of bringing two hands together in an attempt to flatter him.
Looking up, Team Leader Kang had a dry smile.
“Why are you giving such a scary smile? Don’t tell me you’re thinking of putting my name on the blacklist.”
However, contrary to Mija’s thoughts, Team Leader Kang was making a smile, recalling Mija and the hamster that he had raised with all his affection in the past.
“It’s cute.”
She thought that it was a serious night scene, and walked quickly. The night was burning. The heart that has been alone for a long time was in a hurry to hide its feeling. Team Leader Kang looked so handsome as he walked alone.
Meanwhile, Mija muttered in silence while watching the back of Team Leader Kang walking alone.
He was sparkling today again.
Nothing was lacking, from his broad shoulders supporting a narrow face, loose forearms exposed under slightly folded sleeves, and the angry hips.
Look at the stride of every step. One will find it hard to pace along with him.
Team Leader Kang stood in front of his black-colored Maserati, which resembled its owner.
“What? It was definitely a different car at the company. Was it a commuting car? I’m envious.”
He clicked the address in the navigation search bar without hesitation. The letters look very familiar.
That was Mija’s house address.
“Excuse me, my address, how did…”
“Any problem?”
“No, I’m just thrilled that you even know the address of a regular employee.”
‘I didn’t even want to know why he knew the home address.’
Soon after, a gentle woman’s voice of ‘I’ll start the guide’ was heard from the navigation.
The engine of the expensive car started smoothly.
Only then could Mija catch my breath.
This was also when she realized that all of these were reality.
She became worried more about eating and living right now rather than her modest virtue.
If she was fired from her damn job, her mother would bury Mija in the ground without any hesitation.
“You must have had a headache from a hangover. Shall we take a rest?”
Team Leader Kang said to Mija who put her head in the car window and rubbed her head.
“No. I’m in a very good condition.”
Mija said, eagerly wiping the car window stain, which had turned into a part of the psychic photograph with her sleeve.
Team Leader Kang was worried while driving and looked at her over and over again. Her condition looked severe.
“It’s a little bit…it’s a stain. I’ll just wipe it off. Don’t you hate it when leaving my mark?’
‘No, it’s a stain. You can wipe it off, don’t you hate it when my mark is left?’
Even in this awkward situation, the body of the insensitive Mija sent out an unbearable sleep signal.
‘Hey! My eyes are closing. I want to sleep like this.’ Even when she shook her head, and pinched the back of her hand, the sleepiness could not be shaken off.
Her head settled again in a stained window after long wandering.
How long has it been?
The feeling of standing in the back of the head. And the surrounding air was cooling down also the body was curled up on its own accord in an upcoming disaster.
“Argh!”
Mija was so surprised that she screamed once more.
Mija’s mother, who put her hands on both sides of the car window, was looking inside the car with her eyes wide open.
“What’s wrong with Mom?”
“I got a phone call from Deputy Kim’s mother this morning. I wondered if she was worried. I explained the situation well, don’t worry.”
‘What kind of explanation? Huh? Talk to me, you crazy man!
No, don’t tell me. Don’t say anything.’
She saw a group of people standing behind her mother holding hands together.
“I called you before you left, but you’re already there. Are the two of you from her mother’s family? You look like Deputy Kim.”
Mija could see not only her grandmother, father, and younger brothers, but also her aunt’s family.
Today was Mija’s grandfather’s memorial day.
And it may also become her memorial day.
She looked at the team leader with resentful eyes.
He couldn’t hide his excitement and said, “Shall we go out now?”
She wanted to say no to the bland or shallow face of the team leader. But the mother was already pulling the handle of the car.
She thought.
All of these were Team Leader Kang’s fault for not hesitating to commit a heinous crime by holding a get-together on Friday.
‘No.’
Her heart said.
‘It’s your fault. In the first place, I should have quit the company when Team Leader Kang became my boss.’
