It was raining heavily. I was coming back from my office and now I am standing in front of my office. I was happy as it is going to be weekend tomorrow and I can have a good rest but all my mood ruined because of this rain and to add more to my misery I can't get any cab from my office... God are you angry on me?? I cried in my heart. I saw a public bus but the one problem was it was little distant from me. so I ran towards the bus, ignoring the rain. I am sure I will catch a cold. uff..... I want to go home and suck myself in warm water.But to my bad luck the bus went away and I stared at it like a fool. What a bad luck!!
I stood there dazed in the rain for some time. Suddenly a car stopped before me. The window of the car rolled down to reveal my new boss "Kang Seong Hyun". I was confused. Why is he stopping his car in front of me? He couldn't remember me as I am new. could he?
" Get in". He just said in a cold voice.
"but boss-" I tried to resist. Note my keyword "TRIED".but he cut me off.
" I don't want to repeat myself. just get in." he said. I didn't want to go against my new boss and left him a bad impression of me. so I followed into the car. The atmosphere inside the car was warm quite contradicting from outside. He gave me a towel. I took it and wept my dress and hair. After I was done I sat there Awkwardly as I didn't know what to say.
"your adress?" he asked in a lazy voice breaking our awkward moment. "umm.... xx street, yy block" I answered. again the atmosphere fell silent. this silence is killing me.
"Do we know each other Miss Jisoo?" he suddenly asked, which startled me. I feel the same like we know each other but I Can't remember. "No, I don't remember" I replied. "I think I remembered wrong." he replied. this was the end of our little conversation. Then he left me in front of my appartment.
It has been many days and we are now very close. He isn't as cold as I think. He is very thoughtful and gentle at times but in office we maintain our distance and act professional. In other words, we keep our personal life separated from our office. In weekend, we go to fairs, cofee shops and movies. We are good friends now.... but mostly I can't sleep because of him. You may be thinking that I fell for him? yeah, I admit he is handsome but I already have someone in my heart.... it has been 12 years since he left me. we were best friends and we both liked each other.... but he-----
let it go... I can't afford to think about him. but Kang Seong Hyun reminded me of Baek Seong Hyun, my Ex-bestfriend and my ex-crush too.... Tomorrow is my birthday... In my every birthday, I went to my previous school, where Hyun and I met. it was our heaven, where we can relax. My parents doesn't have time for me and Hyun's single mother was too busy in taking care of him.So we depended on each other most of the time. I feel sad as I remembered those times.I miss Hyun... I don't know why he left that day without saying anything...even I don't know if I can forgive him for that.
I called a cab and gave him the adress of my school. I took some gifts for the students too. I reached there and went to meet Mr. ming, the principal of the school. But what I didn't expect to see was Kang Seong Hyun in principal's office.
"What are you--" I was going to ask him but was cut off by Mr. ming.
"Ahh.... you already met Hyun... you were best friends in the past with Jisoo... weren't you Baek Seong Hyun?"
