Hwang Hyunjin - Handy Man

Hyunjin

Intro

You noticed the leak three days ago. It was just a soft drip under the kitchen sink. At first, you ignored it. Then you tried fixing it with duct tape, a YouTube video, and a little bit of hope. None of it worked. This morning, the cabinet was damp and started to smell like mildew. Your patience ran low and you finally put in the maintenance request.

You didn’t expect him.

The guy who showed up wasn’t the usual maintenance tech. He looked like he belonged in a Vogue magazine or on a motorcycle, not standing on your front patio. He was tall, clean shaved (suspiciously smooth), brown eyes, a mole under his left eye, sooo attractive, sleeves rolled up, a quiet confidence that filled the space before he even stepped inside.

"Kitchen sink, right?" he asked, his voice low and easy, like you already knew each other.

"Yeah. It’s… dripping," you said, mentally kicking herself for sounding so nervous.

"The name's Hyunjin," he reaches out to shake your hand. "I'm Y/n," you reply, subtly checking him out.

He crouches under the sink without hesitation, pulling open the cabinet doors and taking off the tool belt from his waist. You hovered awkwardly nearby, trying not to stare as he worked. His shirt rode up just slightly when he reached for a wrench, revealing a sliver of skin and his prominent v-line.

You bite your lip subtly. Damn.

He looked up at you suddenly, smirking like he’d caught you.

"Don’t worry," he said, tightening a valve. "I’m good with leaks... and secrets." He mumbled the last part.
