Chapter 20

Episode 020 Official Contract (1)

manager’s office.

I sat down with the vice president.

The deputy director’s office is currently undergoing internal repairs, so he has no choice but to enter the director’s office.

As I looked around, the scenery of the director’s office caught my eye.

The wooden table with the tree rings still intact, tea utensils are arranged on the long table, and thick rugs are spread on the floor.

Overall a warm atmosphere. It is a cozy place rather than grandiose.

It was hard to think of the director’s room of a large academy, and it had a simple appearance.

“Would you like some tea?”

Then the deputy chief said. They must have come together, but when I got off the tea, a cup of hot steam was placed in front of me.

The sweet scent of barley that penetrates the nostrils.

As I took a sip, I could feel the savory taste subtly.

“It’s good.”

At my words, the deputy chief smiled softly.

“This is Himalayan barley, which I found hard this time. According to the director, it is more savory than Korean fresh barley, but I’m glad you got it right.”

Although he had never seen the director himself, he seemed to know how much the director’s love for barley was.

Even the name of the academy was built as a malt study…

I nodded and put down the teacup.

After class today, I got a call from the vice president.

Although we had been in the same academy for a month, we hardly met each other, so the words ‘deputy director’ that appeared on the phone were unfamiliar at first.

If you think about it, it’s all about passing by for a brief moment when you’re going directly to the vice-principal. After a brief greeting, they were busy entering each other’s classrooms.

So, for the past few days, I wondered if I had forgotten the official contract.

“I had a busy person and I spoke a little bit.”

The deputy chief patted the teacup and said. I shook my head and opened my mouth.

“Fine. He also gave me such a nice car.”

As he finished speaking, he took a sip of his tea. Then the vice president’s face became lighter.

“Actually, I contacted you today because I had something to tell Mr. Kim.”

I nodded at his words. Of course, I expected it to be. Because today was the one month anniversary of the promise I made with him.

He looked at my expression once, and he continued his words.

“After listening to the students these days, I can see that Kim Jun-young worked really hard. I heard that they even point you out one by one for the note test that you don’t even have to do.”

I guess who would have said it. The guy who applauded, pretended to be chic all by himself, and seems to be spreading rumors around the neighborhood.“As you know, even among the instructors, there are not many people who think that preparing for the entrance exam is everything. However, the students’ expressions brightened a lot when the teacher took great care of them. Parent satisfaction is good.”

The deputy director, who had spoken up to this point, took a breath and drank tea. Then he opened his mouth again.

“You did such a good job, so the students in the former academy are going to follow their teachers to our academy.”

The deputy director, who had only given useless compliments, brought out a nonsensical story. For me, it’s a gold rush. It was a story I had never heard of.

“Are the students from the former academy?”

When I ask, the vice-principal puts on a slightly bewildered expression. He looked like he knew, of course.

“Didn’t the teacher bring you? Of course, I just knew it and didn’t tell you…”

It seems that there was a student who came after me from my academy.

I think the vice president misunderstood that I brought the students on impulse.

As I shook his head, he opened his mouth with a humbling smile.

“You know the people who introduced me to the teacher? Their children have decided to go to our academy from next week. During that time, they were the ones who didn’t hesitate to tell me about it, so of course I thought the teacher was talking about it.”

“Apart from that student, other friends were supposed to come with me… Was the student’s name Hyuna or Yuna…”

At this point, he seemed to know who he was without saying anything.

Because there was only one guy who was so daring that he even dragged my friends from the academy.

Kim Yeon Ah.



They made a fuss that they were coming, and it seemed like they did it eventually.



“… my memory is hazy. Anyway, I wish you all the best in the future. It’s not common, but it’s not uncommon. You know, this floor was originally like this.”

The deputy chief said with a faint smile. His face, which had only looked good on a human side, seemed unfamiliar.

“If something like this happens in the future, we will take care of the number of students separately. Instead, this is a secret… you know? There is no need to tell other teachers.”

‘In the future’.

The deputy director was expecting something like this to happen again. From a business standpoint, this is natural.

Even if it’s a large academy, it doesn’t matter how many people go in and out. The more students, the better.

Moreover, it is even better if the target is a person with wealthy parents like Yuna Kim.

“·················ogue.”

However, the vice president’s offer was not very welcome.

From the time the vice president began to open his mouth until now, he had been talking about unilateral praise and gratitude for me, but nothing really changed.

It was certainly surprising that Yuna Kim was following me with her friends, but the words of the vice president after those words were nothing but empty promises.

Just like the deputy director’s words from a while ago, he kept going around but didn’t touch the essence of anything.

“·················ogue.”

Something didn’t feel right. Even though there might not be time since class was over, the vice president was just raising the rim needlessly.

It’s not like I’m staying at the academy at this late hour to listen to such useless words.

He hardened his expression and looked at the deputy chief. The vice president was pouring new tea into his empty teacup.

Judging by the expression on his face, he looks relieved, as if he had said everything he had to say.

I looked down at my glass as I watched him sip his hot tea.

The glass was already cold.

I took the cold glass in my hand and slowly opened my mouth.

“Do you have any more stories to tell?”

In an instant, the vice president’s face turned pale.

The faint smile she had been building throughout the conversation disappeared, and doubts appeared on her face.

“…what more to say?”

The vice-president really doesn’t know. He has a face with no remorse.

Rather, they look at me like I’m strange.

“Didn’t you decide to sign a contract today? Exactly a month ago.”

The deputy director’s expression changed in real time. At first, with an expression of ignorance, then with an expression of remembering, and finally with an expression of difficulty. He was truly a man with one expression on his face.

“Oh, I forgot about that. sorry. As I get older, my memory becomes fuzzy…”

A month ago, he was the deputy director who swore to me about the official contract. Now, he was only making a very apologetic expression on his face.

“But that’s… it’s a bit of a bad situation.”

He shook his head and said. It was the same situation as that day a month ago, the same person, the same words.

“Didn’t you tell me then? I decided to check my skills for a month.”

As I spoke, the vice president’s expression darkened.

He was the person who promised to sign a formal contract on good terms if the performance was achieved in a month. Moreover, he has already said that he takes good care of the students with his own mouth, so it would be difficult to get his foot out of here.

At this point, no matter how much iron you put on your face, it won’t stand up.

“Actually, I am completely in favor of the teacher’s contract. But um… you haven’t been able to show a solid score on your exams or mock exams yet. That’s why some people are a little worried.”

He said, tapping the table with his fingernails.

“So, as I said before, I would like to suggest that you have a probationary period of up to three months as is customary, and then we can talk again. Of course, if you make outstanding achievements during that time, you will be given better conditions than now…”

spectacle.

The deputy director didn’t seem to even realize that the story he was talking about was what he had told him a month ago.

Looking at it, I thought it was a common message for instructors who signed a contract for the first time like me.

The deputy chief’s words were no longer worth listening to.

I opened my mouth,

“I heard you well. deputy chief. Then tell me one more thing.”

The deputy chief nodded his head as if to say something.

“What is the real reason you are against my contract?”When I asked directly, the vice president’s face hardened like a stone statue. No matter how you look at it, it looks like I didn’t expect it to come out like this.

“·················ogue.”

After a moment’s silence, he slowly opened his mouth.

“Teacher. This is really good… If you want to know that, you have to tell me.”

The deputy chief shakes his head with a bitter expression on his face.

“Teacher’s contract issue has already been coordinated within the management. Everything from the teacher’s probationary period and contract to the teacher’s salary.”

I looked at his expression. I realized that what I had guessed was true.

But one question could not be helped.

“Then why didn’t you tell me right away?”

When I asked, the vice president smiled bitterly and opened his mouth.

“Where is the man who likes to put a gun on something like this? Still, he’s a human.”

be a person It was a funny story.

After taking a sip of tea, the vice president continues the story.

“The reason I only say these things to teachers is because they feel sorry for them. Others just drink it a few times as much as they can, but only the teacher is so persistent…”

I let him go and spit it out, and I slowly put my thoughts together.

During my time at this academy, I was able to discover some unusual facts.

That is, even when signing a contract, there are various aspects depending on the person.

It was true that there were people who went through difficulties like me, while there were people who signed the contract smoothly without any problems.

“By the way, aren’t there people who signed a contract right away? What are they?”

When I asked, the deputy director looked at me with an expression like he didn’t really know.

“They are different. If you’re a teacher, you’ll know everything…”

The deputy chief, who had spoken up to this point, paused for a moment. As if reluctant to say anything, he only fiddles with the cold teacup.

“·················ogue.”

As I stand still, he looks at me and sighs.

“Teacher. Do we really need a 10-year veteran from a local university? Or is it just a fresh graduate from a prestigious university? It’s natural to know when you’re the same age as a teacher…”

Having said this far, he glanced at my expression and opened his mouth.

“Actually, the selection of teachers is a little too much for the academy. Still, other people are in the metropolitan area or at the level of a local national university.”

“If my teacher was at least a university in the metropolitan area, I wouldn’t say such a thing. Since I know everything about the teacher, where would you like to say that I am? What would reality do?”

As if there were a lot of things he hadn’t said before, he didn’t think that his mouth, once opened, would close.

But I didn’t stop talking to him.

Because I already knew that whatever I said wouldn’t change his or their decision.

He just smiled quietly and thought of the exam ticket in his pocket.
