Jabs at the Heart

Knock knock. “Jihyun-ssi?” It was her female assistant.

Jihyun opened the door of her room in the hostel they were at. “Wae, unnie? Is there something wrong?” She was in her pajamas, ready to crawl on her bed and call it a night.

“Oh, no, no,” her assistant quipped, smiling at her. “Kyungsoo-ssi just wanted to give this to you,” handing Jihyun a boxed tube of muscle relief cream.

“Huh? Oh wow, thank you! I’ll send him a message,” Jihyun said, bidding her assistant goodnight as she shut her door.

She opened the box and together with the tube was a handwritten note: “Jihyun-ah, for pulling your arm so hard many times today.”

She sleeps with a small smile on her face that night.
