Chapter 31 - #Gamer

'Am I stuck under the bed forever and ever?!!!'.

The real reason why Man Soo couldn't go back to pick them up is this. It's true that curiosity kills a cat, especially if the cat is so unlucky. Man Soo had to help the girl group who's manager was on leave, as his idol didn't have much on his plate. After dropping them, he went to check their schedule.

He came back too tired, he was ready to sleep right after entering the house, the dragon's flat he was sharing. Until he glanced towards Director Ji's room. "Oh, the door is open?", he said out loud. After realizing that Ji Chung Hee could be home, he slapped himself without making a sound.

"Boss, Are you there?", he said in a low voice while shivering.

With no reply coming from the other side of the room, he got all excited. He planned to sneak in and check out the room that is locked most of the time. Now is the time to know his secrets.

'Ohho, Boss has a gaming chair!!', he slapped the first biggest thing he found in the room next to Chung Hee's bed. Everything gave off the gamer vibes but Man Soo didn't even think about it that way, as Director Ji in his head is soo different. No One would give this a thought, if they were in Man Soo's spot.

Chung Hee had a lot of books, mainly books about achieving success at a young age.Kim Man Soo laughed at how determined his boss was to make himself rich. He had about five glasses and three of them were shades. He started trying them on, like he was in a store for it. Those eyeglasses blurred his vision soo much that he removed it immediately. Well, now he knows why Chung hee is always stuck to his spectacles.

On the last shelf, he found a huge box, he had to see what's in there. He just had to see, there's no way he's leaving the room without going through all his stuff. He knows this chance will not be back again.

"Woow, was he so. . .", he looked at a old photo he found inside it. 'No wonder, he lost that shine. Because he is always grumpy', he thought to himself.

'What was that sound!!', Man soo turned around to see from the gap of the half-closed door, 'NOOO, it's Boss!!'. He searched for a place to hide, and the only hide-able place was under the bed.

From there even though, Man Soo could only see his legs his nose sensed that Chung Hee had brought his favourite CHICKEN POPS. The smell just made him hungry, but he was sleepy too. He had not eaten after returning, the door being open was like offering a dog forbidden treat. He ran to it without a second thought, but now he is stuck.

He was waiting for Director Ji to get out of the room. But he just got changed and started eating those Chicken pops as he sat it front of the computer And then. . .

'What he's playing games? and eating my favourite chicken? He's shouting soo damn much', pity Man Soo thought to himself. He could only see the legs tapping too much from under the bed. He couldn't turn to his side, as tapping sound was digging in his ears.

That's when Park Han Jun had called. Poor Man Soo lost half his lifespan thinking Director Ji caught him. One thing that Gamer Chung Hee always does is play games with headphones, that too at very high volume. Man Soo whispered all along on the call. Han Jun might have found it fishy but he was more worried about J-Son.

Man Soo didn't know what was actually happening, he knows for certain it was over two hours since Chung Hee started playing games. His legs started aching but he was to scared to move. He was drowsing off, but he was then filled with hopes when Ji Chung Hee got up. But he circled around the bed and jumped on it like he was wrestling it.

Time went on as Man Soo waited and waited and waited, for the bed lamp to be turned off. Finally it was off, but Man Soo was sleepy even a sloth would move faster than him. Somehow, he slowly walked and reached the door. His legs were shaking as he had been lying under the bed for long. Ji Chung Hee was fast asleep.

Now all he had to do is sneak out, just like he sneaked in. That's all. "Nooo", Man Soo whispered, sadly he realized the door was locked. In his head, his brain could only play songs so sad, describing his end. Chung Hee locks the door most of the times. Flashback that's how Kim Man Soo was so excited to see the door open and know Director's private personality.

The smell of chicken pops pulled him towards the computer, where its empty packet was standing. He decided he will search for it, at least to have chicken once again in his life.

While this miserable aura was all over Man Soo, Director Ji was sleeping like a baby looking so calm and at peace with a book in his hand. Man Soo started searching for the key. He might have also killed him many times in his mind as he searched for the key, with his eye and hand signs every time he felt Chung Hee move.

'Look at him!! I want to punch him soo badly!'

It was past midnight; the key was not found.

'Now, I know why he doesn't come out of the room after he enters it!', Man Soo thought to himself, 'How will I find this damn key now??'.

Man Soo wanted motivation to get up and search for the key again. That motivation was right in front of him, THE SMELL OF CHICKEN POPS. Only that can save him now. He was drowsing as he walked towards the table, without noticing a paper fallen on the ground.

He fell backwards, slipping on that piece of paper on to the bed beside Ji Chung Hee, he dozed off mid-air.

Chung Hee couldn't hear a thing. So there is no way he knew Man Soo was trapped indirectly by him. He too was tired playing games right after returning from work. And gaming doesn't always relieve stress, it just pisses you off sometimes. He thought Man Soo was just a pillow, and hugged him while sleeping. He didn't even open his eyes to see how his pillow size increased overnight.

That poor book was squashed by Man Soo. But he threw it away in his sleep and hugged the grumpy dragon all night long.
