Waking up on a Monday morning after a too short weekend is a job all by itself. Most would pay anything not to leave their bed but Veronica isn't like most. She's up with the sun and out the door before six. Preferring to be on her feet then lying on her side in bed Veronica is always on the move. Her first job of the day….. picking up her boss's custom clothes. There was a masquerade ball in two days and he wanted to have a one-of-a-kind suit. She could understand the urge but could scoff at his taste. The man couldn't tell cotton from silk, a high quality fabric from a cheap knock off, that's why he had her pick of his clothes. As he said, 'she knew her stuff'. Veronica wasn't too upset about the mundane jobs but at least they weren't tiring. This was one of the easier tasks he gives her. The tailor was only a block away and walking helped keep her body in shape. Exercise isn't really needed because she barely eats enough food to keep herself upright yet alone put on the pounds. Freshly shined black heels click-clacked against the hard pavement. Her perfectly manicured fingers brushed back a loose strand of her straightened hair. The warm weather let her get away with the white tank top and high pencil skirt she was wearing. It could be that or the fact that her boss like staring at her ass all day but who know's? A roll of her eyes was the only outward sign of her irritated mood. Honestly, she had better thing to think of then her perverted boss but even then it always came back to him. Now, the only thing on her mind was what the hell she was going to wear. Getting a dress was the easy part, it wasn't like she was short of money, but finding a dress that looked sexy but didn't outshine her date was the hard part. Most were surprised when she said she had a date; did she have a secret boyfriend? A long distance relationship? Nope, none of that. Her date was her god damn thirty-something boss. No one needed to know that though so she just nodded to whatever crack pot theory they had. He hadn't really even asked it, it was more like she was hired for it. A hundred dollars and all she had to do was stand there, giggle and look pretty. That's like asking her to go somewhere with her father. So far she had, carefully of course, decided that she'd be wearing short black dress; it was classy and cute which worked for her. "I swear to god, if I catch him staring at my ass I'll slap him to fucking Timbuktu." she muttered under her breath as she slowly pushed the door open. Veronica had never been here before so hitting something wasn't really part of her plans. Usually her boss had thing delivered but after they had stopped using that store. "Hello?" she said. Letting her head lead the way she carefully made her way in and instantly locked in on a guy not too far away. She raised a finger as if the force of the movement would catch his attention and smiled in his direction. "Excuse me? I'm here to pick up order #516. You do work here right?" She could only assume. He was the only person in there and she had expected creepy dolls, or some strange owner with a ugly white mustache. Not a guy who looked barely a day older than her, then again stereotypes are just stereotypes. 627 words • 30th of April 2012, Kyu-Sik by rinne of gangnam style. |

[atrb=cellpadding, 0, true][atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=style,width: 450px; background-color: #121212;]words: 496 tag(s): Veronica date: April 30th Today won’t come again. At some point, the time has already… It was just another day at work for Kyu-Sik. Spring had finally set in at the beginning of the month, and that meant sewing suits and other garments to better fit the weather for their customers. It wasn't that different than the usual considering that Los Angeles weather was never too far out of a certain range. However, the psychological seasons or even just the fashion seasons themselves meant more business during certain times of the year. This meant a bit more to do than usual, but the young man always welcomed the responsibility. He almost could say that he amazed himself with how much he managed to get done in a day. Even though he was a bit tired, it created a weird sort of contentment that he needed to push him through the work week. The day had reached that point where his boss had decided to take his lunch break and Kyu-Sik was left alone in the shop. He dreaded this time of day if only because it came with a lot of interruptions. There was the whole matter of answering questions and helping customers without anyone else to step in. He didn't mind doing it, but going back and forth between that and sewing meant he could get little done. To prepare himself for whoever may come in at any time, he usually chose to prioritize the tasks that he could quickly put down or pick up again if needed. Today, though, there was a lull in foot traffic that convinced him it was perhaps alright to pick up something a bit more to do. Finishing the hems on a pair of pants seemed to be a fair enough in between. Or so he hoped. He sat at the sewing machine off to the side in the main room so that he could still keep an eye on the door. Only a few minutes after he started did he hear the chime of the bell above the shop's door. " Sorry, just a moment," he replied, carefully finishing the hem he was working on before he even looked up. While he knew he should help a customer as soon as possible, he was also a focused person who didn't like the idea of just stopping in the middle of a hem. Surely a customer wouldn't mind waiting just the short minute it took him to finish, right? When it was done, he looked over his work quickly and then finally looked up. There stood a girl with pink-hair who couldn't have been too far from his own age. This time, however, it was not Rhiannon. The first thing he wondered was how big of a thing pink hair was going to be this year, but he didn't vocalize it. Instead, he stood and gave her a polite nod. " I work here. It was order #516, right?" Kyu-Sik motioned her to follow him over to the counter. " Do you have the ticket for it?" (ooc: asldkfjsd sorry for the wait, I thought I had posted this awhile ago. And apparently I did not. ;A; BUT HERE IT IS NOW! <3<3) |

Veronica slowly dropped her hand when he spoke and her smile flattered. With a sigh she straightened up and cupped her hands together in front of her waist. She leaned back onto her heel and tilted forward on the ball of her foot and repeated the process. Her eyes closed as she continued to sway even began to hum a little tune. Usually she wasn't the type to wait, she was the type to be waited on. The maids waited for her to wake up, the drivers waited for her to come into the car, her cooks waited for her to be hungry; however waiting isn't as hard as she had thought. At least now she can scold people who like to call themselves, 'impatient.' All they need to do is find something to distract them and Veronica's thing is to sway and hum. She didn't open her eyes till she heard a shift. Veronica opened one eye and peering up at the man who was looking right back at her. Staring at a person with one eye probably isn't very polite so she decided to open the other. Veronica dipped her head down in response to him and smiled. "Yes, that's it." A ticket? That fool did give her a ticket. Veronica patted her pockets as she marched over to the employee. The longer she had to search the more her eyebrows knotted together at the top of her head. She stopped searching and gazed at the older boy in front of him. "I'm sorry I don't have it on me." Did she drop it? Twisting her body around she looked behind her hoping that it was just fluttering to the ground. She knew the inevitable so she wasn't even disappointed when it wasn't there. "I'm sorry for the delay but could I have a moment?" Not waiting for an answer Veronica took a step and turned her back to the worker. Slipping her phone out of her bag and quickly typed out the problem and received a text in a matter of seconds. Mistakes always happen around her but are never caused by her, it's quite sad. She turned back to the boy and held her hand to her chest in apology. "Someone is going to bring it here for me. I'm just happy someone is leaving the office and coming nearby." How rude of her. Veronica held out her hand, "I'm Veronica, I work in the law firm down the street and you are?" She didn't usually introduce herself to random people but she probably will be here for a while. A monster of a sound erupted from her stomach that made her face turn red and reminded her that she skipped lunch. If there was one thing Veronica loved, it was her bag. She had everything in there and she was just happy she had food in there; too much food actually. After digging in their she pulled out to plastic cups filled with different types of fruit. She blinked at it and looked up at the only other person here. Thrusting her hand out and cocking her head Veronica gave him a lopsided smile. "Do you want it? I have a spoon." Doing a good deed helps with karma. 546 words • 30th of April 2012, Kyu-Sik by rinne of gangnam style. |

At some point, the time has already… Kyu-Sik appreciated the girl's patience. There were times in other businesses where he knew customers could get a little antsy if made to wait, so he was glad that she wasn't one of them. It wasn't the sort of day where he really wanted to deal with easily agitated customers, and he was the type of person who was often very unaffected by those irritated by small things in the first place. Either way, he didn't swell on the thought, he was just grateful for the moment. He folded the hemmed pants over his arm while he walked, setting them down on the counter when he reached it. Then, he turned his attention right back to the customer. However, there seemed to be a problem. Just as patiently as she had waited for him, he gave her time to search for the ticket. When it was apparently nowhere to be found, he continued to wait for her to make her quick text despite how much he had wanted to interrupt. He wasn't really sure what she was typing, and he avoided assumptions. Still, lost tickets happened. It wasn't a terribly big deal. While it made the process a bit more difficult, he really just needed a direct confirmation from the original customer. He didn't like doing it over the phone, but it wasn't something unheard of. When the wait was over, it seemed he wasn't too far off. In understanding, he gave her a polite nod and let her continue talking all the way to her stomach growling. Then came the fruit cups. The Korean man looked down at what she was offering him, a bit confused. It wasn't everyday that a customer waltzed in and offered him food at a random moment. In fact, that never really happened at all. People came in to pick up whatever they had ordered to be made or altered. Kind as many of them were, it just wasn't the sort of place where you got offered food by strangers. He actually wouldn't have minded taking it. Skipping lunch happened a bit more often than it should've and fruit sounded refreshing. However, he couldn't bring himself to do if. Not really sure the appropriate way to react, Kyu-Sik took the most cautious route by giving her a slight smile, but also politely shaking his head. " That's alright, thank you," he answered as he motioned. " I'm sure it was meant for someone else and it's not even my lunch break." That was polite enough, right? He turned for a few moments to look for her order while they were waiting. " My name is Kyu-Sik, by the way." Obviously, she already knew where he worked. Well, one of the places he worked. " We get a lot of regular business from the local law firms, so if there are any issues with the ticket after this, don't worry. I'd just have to call the person who made the order and confirm some details." |
