Y/N arrives in Korea

Authour’s POV 

A week has passed. Olivia never spoke to Chen Le again after that day when he confronted her for smoking. As for Soo-bin, he still could not find the courage to confess his feelings for Arin. Things were spiraling out of control in the school as more students were playing truant and teachers struggling to teach. 

It was a Saturday morning and at Incheon airport, Mr Kim and his secretary were waiting at the airport for someone. After waiting for thirty minutes, the person they were waiting for had arrived.  

“Hello there Y/N. Thanks for accepting the job offer,” said Mr Kim. 

“You're most welcome Mr Kim,” said Y/N, shaking hands with Mr Kim. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A week earlier, Y/N was on the phone with Mr Kim. 

“So have you decided to accept my offer?” Mr Kim asked. 

“I will accept your offer if it is according to my conditions. Also, I will let you know when I am flying to Korea.” said Y/N. 

“Sure Y/N. Not an issue,” said Mr Kim. 

After Y/N hung the call, he left the room and went to the kitchen to drink a glass of water. As he finished drinking, Mdm Neo returned home after having a meal with her friends. Mdm Neo saw Y/N, asking him where he had gone earlier. Y/N smiled and explained to her that he had accepted a job in Korea. This news surprised Mdm Neo as she asked what job it was.  

“The job is to be a principal of a high school. Seems like a job worth a try,” said Y/N. 

“Sounds good. Will they pay well?” Mdm Neo asked. 

Y/N nodded his head and hugged Mdm Neo, telling her that all would go well. 

Y/N’s POV 

After we shook hands, we boarded his car and left the airport. Mr Kim told me that he would be sending me to get something to eat, which I agreed to. Mr Kim started to tell him that he was so happy when I agreed to take up the job. I reminded him that if he allowed me to add certain conditions, I would take up the job. 

“Alright Y/N. I will agree to the conditions when we discuss the contract over at the restaurant," said Mr Kim. 

“Sure. No issues,” I said, smiling. 

After a thirty-minute drive, we arrived outside a Korean restaurant. Entering the restaurant, I realized how nice the place was. The waiter ushered me and Mr Kim to a private room where we took our seats. Mr Kim told the waiter that the food could be served which surprised me. Mr Kim’s request made me ask him if he had ordered the food in advance.  

“Yes, I did. Sorry if I didn’t inform you,” said Mr Kim. 

“No worries, shall we get started on the contract?” I asked. 

Mr Kim nodded his head as he took out a file and handed it to me. I opened the file, and it showed the contract details which I read carefully. The contract wrote the job description and how much I would be paid. The salary seemed acceptable, but it seemed that the notice period was at least three months. I continued reading and saw that the principal must report any incidents in the school to the owner. 

“Is this line a must?” I asked Mr Kim, pointing out the line which said the principal must report any incidents in the school to the owner. 

“Yes of course. Do you have a problem with that?” Mr Kim asked. 

I nodded my head, taking a pen and canceling the line. This action surprised Mr Kim, as he asked me why I did that. I explained that there was no need to report all incidents unless they were big enough to get the public’s attention. Mr Kim nodded his head and agreed as I asked for more control over what the teaching staff can do. My new request made Mr Kim feel a little uneasy, but he agreed to it.  

“Great. That’s all,” I said, signing on the bottom page of the file. 

I took photos of the details and handed over the file to Mr Kim. Mr Kim thanked me and told me that I could start work on the coming Monday. I nodded my head as the waiter started to serve the food.  

“Dig in,” said Mr Kim. 

“Thank you very much,” I said. 

Both of us started eating as we talked about a few casual things. After we finished our meal, Mr Kim paid for the meal and we left the restaurant. Entering the car, I asked Mr Kim if he had found a place for me to stay. Mr Kim nodded his head, telling me that the driver would bring me to the place of residence. The place was only a ten-minute drive and when we arrived, I realized the place was a condominium complex.  

“This place looks fantastic,” I said. 

“Of course. It has a convenience store at the ground floor and the train station is just a few minutes’ walk away,” said Mr Kim. 

I thanked Mr Kim as he told me that he would help to settle the rental fees for me. Hearing this made my day. Once the car was parked, Mr Kim showed me the way to the apartment. The apartment was on the eighth floor which had a view around certain parts of the city. The apartment had the things I needed except that the fridge was empty.  

“Sorry Mr Kim, but there is nothing in the fridge,” I said. 

“Oh, sorry about that. I forgot to inform my secretary to prepare food and drinks. Looks like you can go down to the convenience store to get them,” said Mr Kim. 

I sighed as Mr Kim and I shook hands, with him telling me that he would be picking me up on Monday to send me to the school. I shook my head, telling him that I would like to make my own way to the school. Mr Kim understood and left the apartment. The apartment was a two-room apartment.

Naturally, I walked straight to the master bedroom and placed my things there. I started to unpack my things and hung my clothes in the cupboard. After I was done unpacking, I decided to head down to the convenience store to buy some food and drinks. Once I arrived and entered the shop, I started to pick the important items. After I was done picking, I went straight to the counter but there was no one. 

“Erm, excuse me. Anyone there?” I asked. 

(the staff who appeared)

After I asked that question, a girl in uniform appeared. I glanced at her and looked at the name tag. The name on the name tag was Eunseo. As she was calculating the amount, I looked at her and realized how pretty she looked. I was so focused on looking at her that I did not realize she was calling me. 

Eunseo’s POV 

I looked at the guy and said excuse me many times. I waved my hands at his face which got his attention.  

“Sorry, how much is the total?” the guy asked. 

“Fifty thousand won Sir,” I said. 

The guy then presented his card which he used for payment. After the payment was received, I returned the card to him and packed his items. After I finished packing, I handed him the bag and I thanked him for the purchase. 

“Your welcome Miss Eunseo. I wanted to ask, are you a part timer here?” the guy asked.
