Chapter 10

I shook my head and then stood up.
"Uh, I'm about to move the prod team," I explained.
"Ah! I thought you were going to resign. Where are you now, hija?"
"On Miss Stacey's team."
"Glam team huh? I hope you can be assigned to us. Especially since sir Ivan said you are hardworking. I want something like that for Dionysus," said sir Markus with a smile.
I don't want to be assigned to your team! I like Risen! Dionysus is numerous. Especially Ethan!
I just smiled and sat down.
"Manager, shall we introduce ourselves?" asked a member of Dionysus.
"Right!" Sir Markus was still laughing. "I forgot! Everyone, this is the new boy group of the company! Dionysus!"
Then applause again. I clapped because Ethan and I met again.
When he saw me not clapping, he raised an eyebrow at me. So I just clapped.
He will report me later.
"Hello! We are Dionysus!" they said together.
"Hi I'm Will, willing to be your boyfriend," said the man with deep dimples. He looks like the rabbit in Secret Life of Pets.
"I'm Benj," said the second tallest.
"Wakin," the other said simply and winked.
"Two, three! Hello I'm one," he was the one who looked friendly to everyone.
"Nico nico niii! Hello I'm Riki," I think it's the youngest.
"Yurishim Jake at your service," then signed.
I averted my eyes from the last introduction.
"I'm Eltan, short for Aczeqiel Ethan. My favorite color is blue. Because it's the color of the sun that gives light to our lives. That's all. Thank you," he said.
Then laughed inside.
"Ethan hyung this is not the first day of class!" Riki said.
Riki...sir Ethan mentioned him when I took him to his room.
"Ah, I thought it was the first day of classes."
"He just missed going to school. I'm sorry," Wakin said...it's not Benj.
They are confusing. Because it's good.
No. It's not allowed. I can't get tired of them
. I shook my head and patted my cheek.
I just turned my attention to the front. And this time he met my eyes again.
He raised his hand with an okay sign.
It's like he's asking me if I'm okay. Of course I'm okay no-.
Wait. I need to breathe!
Did he see that I was frustrated again?
Why does he always catch me doing that?
"So this is Dionysus, the new boy group. They'll be having their live later. To promote them publicly. Thank their fans. That's all, I hope we can work all together without any problems," said Sir Markus . "Say your last message boys."
"Hello, I hope we can work well. I also hope you support us. Thank you!" Yurishim said.
"How about the others?"
"I hope the glam team is also kind and we can work with them safely," Ethan said.
"Why are you on the glam team right away in-"
"Yes, Benj hyung. Thank you!"
"Sir Ivan and the rest of your team, thank you for lending us some of your time. We know that your team was the busiest one's. Thank you!"
"Thank you!"
"Ba-bye!"
"Bye miss Iris!"
I turned to the door when I heard that.
But it looks like I'm the only one who heard it.
"Come back here, Iris after three months okay?"
Senior is opposite my cubicle. While I was arranging my things.
"I'm sorry, senior Ivan, I was planning to go to the cafe after my glam," I answered him.
"Tss. Okay fine. But I really hope you can come back here to my team."
Oh, isn't it just like boss M? I missed the Ramen House.
"Yes," I just said.
"Then next month Anne will be moving. The two I can count on are gone.
"Asus! Sister Iris is the only one who can be trusted here and is your favorite!" Anne suddenly appeared in our conversation.
Senior Ivan and I laughed.
"She doesn't like me anymore because she chose you as employee of the month," I pretended to say sullenly. "
Well, it's just me."
"Alright, Anne, take the outsider to the glam team," senior Ivan pushed me away.
"Wow," I said in disbelief. "After you woke me up six months, that's all you're going to tell me? You're hurting Senior!"
He didn't answer me anymore and went to our other workmates.
"Sister Iris..."
"Oh maybe you're going to make drama with me too? I'm not leaving. I feel like leaving your reactions! The OA huh. I'll just move! We can literally meet again-"
"I know that."
"Oh, what are you talking about?"
He pulled his chair to my side and sat down. He snorted, like a child throwing tantrums.
"What's your problem? son? The mother has no salary yet. So you don't have a happy meal at Mcdo first, okay?"
"Sister!"
I confronted him. I couldn't wait for him to tell me why he was acting.
"What is it? Hurry up, I'm late. I'm mad at senior Stacey!"
He beckoned me to come closer so I did.
"I'm jealous of you! There is a chance that you will always be with Dionysus! Because you're on the glam team," he whispered to me.
away from him and slapped his thigh.
"I thought what's up! Next month you'll be moving to the glam team."
"Well, I'm being hired for the technical side," he said, still pouting.
"Don't turn it down!"
His problem will be solved quickly. But only if he can act! I thought You are the big problem. Just like when you won 200M in the Lotto, your paper is messed up.
"I think I want it too. Because the rate was raised for me. Also for CJ's studies. You know it's only been two years, he's already in secondary school."
This time I was the one who signaled him to come closer.
"That's only two, Anne. Your brother or your 'wives'," then I laughed in his ear. He
hit me while holding his left ear.
"Come on! I'm going to deliver you!"
* * *
"Everyone! This is Iris, from senior Ivan's team. And she chose our team for her next three months of working! Hope we can get along well," sen-miss Stacey said happily to the team.
She doesn't want to be called senior because that makes her feel old. Even though she is 33 and has two children, she has maintained her beautiful body. and face.
She really fits the glam team here.
"Hello! I'm Iris, I'm looking forward working with you guys!"
They applauded me and shook my hand.
Then Miss Stacey and I went to her mini office to discuss which department I was in. I
sat in the chair in front of the deskmiss Stacey.
She smiled at me before speaking.
"I'm really happy you chose my team, Iris. I don't know if you'll believe me. But since day one, the day I saw you I really want you to be part of my team!"
"No, I don't know much about this," I said shyly.
"What? No! I saw your drafts on styling a mannequin. The make-up you did with your model, miss Wella. And the way you cut your own hair! That was so impressive, dear."
Miss Stacey was really great. I was embarrassed.
"Thank you. I'm also happy to be part of your team."
"I'm glad to hear that," then he placed a folder on the table. "Here's the form you need to sign up. Then we'll discuss on what department you'll be in."
I nodded and took the folder.
"I know you've heard about Dionysus..."
Is this it?
Please, I hope I'm wrong.
" So, you will be assigned there. And then...is it okay if I'll be the one to be assigned to which department are you? Or it can be just you."
I really want to be the one to choose, because I'm shy.
"Hmm, it's just you."
"Okay. First let me explain how we are here. So glam team has four departments. The hair, face, outfits, and the overalls. Our work also evolves outside the company. Since, artists are not always here. Especially if they have events to attend. The most hassle here is when they have a concert tour."
I nodded and let him explain.
It's like being in the precinct, ah.
"But that's also fun. Because we get to different places. To be honest with you. I've already chosen a department for you, you're not on my team yet."
My eyes widened.
"Hala? Really?"
"Yes. I decided to put you in the overall department. Here, you only hold one artist. Less hassle, right?"
I couldn't help but smile. Because of what Miss Stacey said. It's exam week, so I have plenty of time to review. Because my work here is light.
"Wow, thank you."
"But, after two months I will transfer you to another department. Maybe on make-up? 'Cause I really love the way you did with miss Wella."
"No, thank you. Actually, I wouldn't have been able to achieve that without the help of my model."
"Okay then, it's settled, right? I'll just inform you on which artist you'll be assigned."
Shit. It turns out that one of Dionysus will be assigned to me. I just hope it's not Ethan. Because I'm lost to him. And I don't know either why.
"Okay," I answered.
"Oh! I almost forgot, your work starts on Thursday. Because our first project with Dionysus, for their debut, is still Thursday. Later I'll email you who in Dionysus will be assigned to you okay?"
"Alright. Thank you, miss Stacey."
"No problem."
After our conversation, I went to my capsule first. Because I don't have work today and tomorrow.
at the study table busy reading notes. I stopped what I was doing because the light came on. my phone.
@MsStaceyGTgmail.com
Hello Iris! Sir Markus and I had a meeting together with Dionysus. Then I told them what we talked about earlier. And one of the Dionysus' members volunteered to fix it! Ace was assigned to you. See you on Thursday!
I dropped my head on top of the book.
I just transfer to senior Ivan again? There is still a tendency for me to work with them.
I wish I could just choose which department I am in. I got up and typed a reply to miss Stacey.
To: @MsStaceyGT@gmail.com
From:liriscastilian@gmail.com
Hello Miss! Okay, see you on thursday! Thank you.
After I sent it, I saw on the screen that calling Wella.
"Hello?"
"Hello? Lily!"
"What?"
"Oh sunget ah," then he laughed. "Are you free now?"
"No."
"Weh? What are you free for?"
"Why?"
"That's just a question. Are you free?
"Yes, why?"
"Okay! Let's go to this ramen house," he said.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Just go!" Cali said in the background.
"Is there food there?"
"Naturally! Let's bankrupt brother Mark's business!"
I laughed at what Wella said. And I said after 10 minutes I will be there. I changed my clothes and packed my tote bag.
Then I came out of my capsule. I looked at where my foot kicked me. Another bouquet of flowers.
And like before, there is no mention of who it is from.
I only saw a note.
'Circle is my favorite shape cuz it represents my comfort food which is the banana.'
I raised my eyebrows when I read the note. Trip strength whoever left it in front of my capsule.
I went in again to put the flower inside.
I also went to the cafeteria to buy a cake. I'm approaching the counter with an attentive familiar back.
And when the man looked back I stopped walking. Our eyes met for a moment before he turned his attention back to the other person.
He was with Wakin and Yurishim at the table.
Maybe they will be introduced to the whole company. I continued walking to the counter. I happened to see senior Janet at the counter, the head of the cafeteria.
"Hey Lily! I haven't seen you in a while. I heard you're in GT?" he opened to me.
I smiled before answering. "Yes."
"It's good then. Miss Stacey has wanted you on her team for a long time! What's your order? Are you going to break?"
"I'll have a free cut today until tomorrow. A carrot cake," I ordered.
I will take carrot cake to the Ramen House. Because that was a favorite of the two.
"Well, someone already ordered the last carrot cake," senior Janet said sadly.
"Is it over?"
I glanced at the speaker behind me.
It's Ethan!
I leaned over so he could get his order. I saw that carrot cake. The last carrot cake went to him.
"Thank you ha! You are really handsome, son."
Senior Janet seemed to be thrilled while handing Ethan's order.
It's thorny. Even oldies are captivated.
"Thank you," answered the man.
"What is yours, Iris?"
"Just caramel cake," I said.
"Alright, I'll just wrap it."
Then senior Janet left the counter.
The two of us were left behind.
"Banana cake is better. Try it," he finally said and left me.
While in the taxi I was thinking about what Ethan said.
What banana cake? Is there such a thing? Isn't that banana bread?
There must be a problem with the brain.
He was just like that in the OT conference room.
In just a few moments, I was in front of the Ramen House. I haven't been here in a few months.
"As usual, his 10 minutes turned into 20 minutes!"
I just laughed at Cali and sat down at the table. I also put down the cake I brought.
"I'm forgiven teh! There's a cake! What's a carrot?" asked Wella.
"Caramel," I answered. "The carrot ran out."
"Leo! Send us plates and forks here please!"
My eyes searched for baby Phoebe who was in her stroller. I stood up and put her stroller next to me.
"Hey that guy is just sleeping," Cali said to him.
"I'm not going to mess it up. Where's this father?"
Leo arrives and drops what Cali sent.
"In the office."
I nodded and stroked Phoebe's cheek, this child is really cute!
I took out my cellphone to take a picture of Phoebe. Then I added it to my IG stories.
The three of us talked about what happened to us after Wella's graduation.
What he is busy with now is reviewing for his board. So that he is completely LPT. While Cali is busy taking care of baby Phoebe.
I explained to them that I had already switched teams when baby Phoebe cried. Boss M was right out of his office so he brought the child there.
"Overall? Is there something like that? You might neglect your studies, Lily," Cali said worriedly.
"No, no. It's better than when I was with senior Ivan. Here, I still manage my time a bit. Because I only work with artists when they go somewhere. And I only have one thing to fix," I explained.
"Yes, Cali. It was more stressful when he was with Sir Ivan. He was always OT there. But Sir Ivan is okay!"
"No matter what senior Ivan says, you have no hope for him Wells," I said. "But it's also possible if you dream of becoming a fixture."
