“Oh, right, Miss Hyun! When you go to Gimun, you have to wear high heels. If you don’t, you’ll get rejected right at the entrance.”

    “Even without you saying so, I already got rejected last time. But what do they say is the reason for doing that?”

    “Isn’t that kid guarding the gate a pervert? Crazy guy, ridiculously fat, too.”

    “Is the president of Gimun a pervert?”

    “How would I know that far? It’s not like I’ve slept with him. Ask him today. Ask if he’s a pervert.”

    “Who wants to die? But isn’t he super handsome? Rumor has it his dick is fucking huge, too. Like, this big.”

    When I heard this vulgar conversation, I still didn’t know—just how much more fucked up my life was about to get from here.

    Located in a remote place that took thirty minutes by car, Jangheung Livestock was a feed factory represented by Mr. Hwang Nobyung, a well-known local influential figure in Mugwang City. All livestock farms in this region used Mr. Hwang Nobyung’s feed, and the factory site alone reached twenty thousand pyeong with no small number of employees, making it a respectable mid-sized enterprise.

    One might think, it’s just six thousand won for a cup of delivered coffee, so why waste an hour going back and forth just to sell that? But Mr. Hwang Nobyung’s other nickname was ‘the boss who spends money well.’ Fitting his greasy appearance and large frame, he was so remarkably generous that not only did he calculate delivery fees by the minute, but he was also a rare figure who paid for coffee at rates matching a girl’s daily pay. What a figure he was, he even remembered to give tip money to the car-man. Since he was a well-known rich man since his parents’ generation, spent money well, and didn’t have a wife to nag him, Hwang Nobyung was quite popular among the girls for his age.

    Such a Mr. Hwang Nobyung was terribly hooked on Miss Hyun, who was new to Hobak Coffee Shop, ordering coffee every single day. Miss Hyun, who was twenty-eight, possessed pretty looks even in my eyes, but the man over fifty treated her with such utmost devotion as if he’d give her both his liver and gallbladder, to the point where one would think that devotion might actually lead to marriage. Well, thanks to that, as the car-man, I was glad to get free money along with her. Today, thanks to him giving one more bill than yesterday, I ended up with the large sum of fifty thousand won. For a few days, there was no need to worry about snack money.

    Even though fifteen minutes had passed since Miss Hyun went inside, she showed no intention of coming out. Once a certain amount of time passed, the car-man had to make a phone call, if only for the girl’s sake. This is because incidents where they couldn’t come out due to suffering under harsh hands were frequent. If you made an urgent call saying deliveries were piled up so come out quickly, they would reluctantly let her go.

    Since I didn’t have a phone under my own name, I used the store phone I was carrying to call Miss Hyun, but Hwang Nobyung answered instead of Miss Hyun. But fucking hell.

    ― Why, gasp, are you keeping on calling? Huh?

    “Aigoo, boss, you must be very busy. Right? It’s nothing else, but right now our noonim has a lot of deliveries piled up.”

    ― Almost done, heeh, wait.

    “Of course. I’ll wait. I’ll wait, but—”

    ― Ah, fuck’s sake. Oh yeah, oh yeah, doing good. That’s it! Keep sucking!

    “….”

    Coarse words and moans echoed from the other side, as if Miss Hyun were sucking his dick or something. I couldn’t tell her to stop and come out in this situation, and if I listened any longer, my ears felt like they would rot, so I just hung up. Fuck. If they were going to do this, they should’ve rented a separate time slot or something. For the sake of the other girls doing the same work, you shouldn’t act like this, but Miss Hyun, who was new to coffee shop work, didn’t seem to know any better.

    If you come for a delivery and suck dicks as you please, talk behind your back was bound to happen. ‘Miss Hyun from Hobak Coffee Shop even sucks dicks before leaving, so why can’t you?’ It would spread into a fight among the girls, and further, between establishments, and then, fuck, I—the one who couldn’t manage things in the middle—would be the only one dying again. Having experienced this kind of shit several times already over the past three weeks, just thinking about it gave me the shivers.

    As I wondered what to do, since the incident had already happened, I decided to just give her a separate word of warning once she came out. Although I wasn’t the boss, and as a man, it was a bit awkward for me to bring it up, it was better than it getting into Kim Jeongsuk’s ears and causing a disaster.

    True to his word, exactly 5 minutes later, Miss Hyun came out of Hwang Nobyung’s office. Her neatly applied lipstick was completely wiped off, and the corners of her eyes were smeared black.

    Miss Hyun spat onto the dirt ground with a ptui and took out gum from her handbag to start chewing. Hwang Nobyung came out right after, and as if he wasn’t satisfied with pulling it out just once, the bulge between his thighs was still protruding. Though hidden inside his pants, at a quick glance, it looked fucking huge.

    Grasping there a few times, Hwang Nobyung wrapped his arms around Miss Hyun, who was saying goodbye. While doing so, he whispered this and that into her ear, and Miss Hyun’s expression listening to it looked pretty good, too. Looking at her today, she seemed to have made up her mind to be Hwang Nobyung’s lover. Well, since a boss who spends money well is the best in this industry. On top of that, if his dick is big too, that says it all.

    Thinking that we’d be late for Gimun Construction at this rate, I rolled down the window and urged Miss Hyun.

    “There’s no time, noona! Gimun Construction! Gimun Construction!”

    Showing the watch on my wrist while shouting ‘Gimun Construction’, Hwang Nobyung’s expression turned sour upon hearing that. Hwang Nobyung grabbed Miss Hyun’s wrist tightly just as she replied that she understood and was about to come this way, then said:

    “Did that bastard Boss Chu request you? Why are you going there?”

    “Mmm-mm, they don’t do things like requesting over there. Since it’s close from here, they’re just telling me to take the order.”

    “Then send another girl. You don’t go.”

    While I understand his anxiety about losing his girl to Boss Chu, who is famous for being handsome and having a huge dick, work should be treated as work; if he acts like this already, it was clear their relationship wouldn’t last long.

    Fortunately, Miss Hyun had a strong professional spirit. Knowing well that there weren’t many girls going out for delivery today and that time was too tight to swap girls for the ride, she rejected Hwang Nobyung’s suggestion.

    “What for? Besides, there are no other girls. They all called in absent, so only me and Miss Byeol came to work today.”

    “Should I try calling Jeongsuk? To see if there are other girls or not.”

    “Ah, why is my oppa being like this? I’m in the middle of work right now.”

    “Then just off the clock right here. Don’t go wandering around making your feet hurt. I’ll pay off all your daily wages up to tomorrow’s share.”

    Miss Hyun, who had been making an annoyed face, brightened up at those words and looked at Hwang Nobyung.

    “Really?”

    “Of course it’s real! I don’t lie.”

    “Then couldn’t oppa say a word to imoya? I’m a little scared. Huh?”

    “Tsk, what’s there to be scared of? Alright. Wait a moment.”

    Hwang Nobyung immediately pulled out his phone and started calling Kim Jeongsuk. Watching that scene filled with expectation, Miss Hyun suddenly turned toward my direction and winked.

    “Hey, Jeongsuk! It’s me, Nobyung, Hwang Nobyung. Yeah, yeah, it’s not that there’s a problem, I was just thinking of taking our Miss Hyun out for some fresh air today.”

    No matter how much money he had received from Hwang Nobyung, permission would only be granted after completing the delivery up to Gimun Construction. Because to pick up another girl and go, there was no way they could make it by the time Gimun Construction requested. The place scarier than Hwang Nobyung was Boss Chu’s side.

    However, contrary to expectations, permission was granted incredibly smoothly. Finishing the phone call with Kim Jeongsuk after taking the phone, Miss Hyun let out a cheer and hugged Hwang Nobyung.

    “What’s this, oppa! Oppa, were you a strong man?”

    Climbing into the back seat, handing over the coffee cloth bundle, and gathering her things, Miss Hyun’s expression looked incomparably bright. Just like her actual age. Suddenly, Miss Hyun ruffled my hair from behind.

    “I’m sorry, Minjo. You’re suffering because of me.”

    “Ah, for what? What suffering is a guy who only drives doing?”

    “Imoya’s going to call, you know? Just in case, keep this with you.”

    “Pardon?”

    The red high heels Miss Hyun had been wearing were tossed onto the passenger seat. Changing into low shoes, Miss Hyun stepped out of the car and said:

    “Don’t sprain your ankle. Be careful, careful.”

    ∞ ∞ ∞

    I got rejected three times for not wearing high heels.

    ‘No exceptions for men or women. If you’re an obong, come wearing high heels.’

    I wanted to blurt out “fuck off,” but given who the opponent was, I had no choice but to do as instructed. Returning to the car, I tore off my socks and rammed my feet into the high heels Miss Hyun had left behind.

    “Agh, my damn life.”
