"Done!" Naima cheered with a wide grin as she closed her laptop.
The click of the lid sounded like the official signal that her workday battle was finally over.
She stretched her stiff arms high above her head after hours of sitting.
"Finallyyy… time to go out!"
Her hand quickly grabbed her phone and opened the map app.
"Okay, from here to Gyeongbok Palace, then to Bukchon Hanok Village. Hmm, maybe I can stop for coffee at Samcheongdong."
Her eyes sparkled, her excitement bursting out like a kid who had just finished an exam.
Standing in front of the mirror, she began to weigh her outfit choices.
"Hmm… if I'm going to the palace, is a tank top appropriate?" she murmured at her reflection.
She bit her lip, thought for a moment, then nodded firmly.
"I'll just throw on a cardigan. Safe, stylish, and still breezy."
Outside the window, the Seoul sky looked clear and bright blue.
Sunlight bounced off glass buildings, dancing across her apartment windows.
