The Love Or Obsession?
Strong Girl

As usual, Aara prepared to go to the office at seven in the morning. Since the trip to the company took thirty minutes so he had to leave early.

Before leaving, Aara took the time to make breakfast for her daughter. Butter fried chicken with a sprinkling of cheese on top. Also a glass of warm milk that Yoonji always consumes in the morning. Aara climbed the stairs to wake her daughter up, usually the daughter would wake up by herself but this time the little girl had not come out of the room at all.

The pink door was knocked several times, no word was heard to make Aara push the door open. The state of the room still looks neat and dark, because the window curtain has not been opened. Aara never checked on the boy in the morning, because it was her habit of six in the morning Yoonji who came to her room.

With a single pull of the curtains open, making Yoonji's room instantly bright. His gaze shifted to the bed, where Yoonji was still asleep with a blanket covering her entire body. Only his head was visible. Aara sat on the lip of the bed, rubbing the princess' head gently.

"Yoonji, it's morning."

Yoonji looked up and opened her eyes. The little girl was about to wake up but her head felt dizzy. Not wanting to make the mother worried, she regained her senses and pretended to be still sleepy. Because actually he had woken up in his usual hour, it was just that his dizzy head made him unable to get out of bed.

"Mommy hasn't left yet?" Ask Yoonji.

"Awhile more. Why are you late waking up? You sick?"

"No, Ma. I couldn't sleep last night so I woke up late."

"Can't sleep?" Aara and Yoonji nodded.

Aara glanced at the watch on her wrist, it was already seven o'clock and that meant she had to leave immediately. If he misses the bus then waiting for the next bus will make him late.

The girl smiled and rubbed the top of Yoonji's head. This is the umpteenth time he has to leave Yoonji at home alone. How else, if he stays at home then they will not be able to meet the needs. And there's no way he's gonna take Yoonji to the office.

"Mother is leaving. Take a shower and get down for breakfast, don't be late, okay?" Aara and Yoonji nodded again.

Aara was completely unaware of Yoonji's change in face. He also does not feel strange to his daughter who stung bad luck, for him it is only natural to remember he is also often like that. Especially a kid as small as Yoonji.

The bus that will take her to the office will arrive soon, so Aara rushed from home to the nearest stop from her home. Not too far away because only about 200 meters. He used to walk long distances, especially when working in restaurants he always went back and forth on foot to save costs.

It is indeed the end of the year so he does not have to deliver Yoonji first to go to school. And he also did not force the little girl to wake up because the school was already on vacation.

Yoonji felt a pain in her stomach, the day had started noon and the clock on the wall showed at eight in the morning. With his strength still remaining, he got up from the bed and went out for breakfast.

His steps were limped because his head also felt dizzy. However since he had to fill his stomach immediately, Yoonji forced himself to go downstairs. The girl blinked her eyes and shook her head slowly as her gaze began to blur.

Early down the stairs, Yoonji can still control herself. But half the way, his head really felt heavy and dizzy. Too limp for the size of a child as small as Yoonji, until finally the body collapsed onto the stairs and rolled over.

His head hit the side of the lower stairs until it bled. Even the girl no longer felt anything due to the loss of consciousness. It is like sleeping well on a bed.

Luckily, the girl surnamed Kim was able to go to his house in the morning. If it was not possible, bad things would happen to the little girl. Imagining Yoonji's body lying around without anyone knowing before she came home made her heart ache.

Mi-Soo herself doesn't know why she feels like visiting Aara's house in the morning. The girl had just jogged around the compound, and while passing through Aara's house there was some kind of push that made her there. Whether it was a premonition or what she was clearly grateful for was her heart bringing her body to Aara's house to find Yoonji.

"Mi-Soo!"

Mi-Soo raises her face when her name is called, and Aara walks quickly to her. The girl was even still wearing sports clothes and there were blood spots on her shirt. Aara instantly felt dizzy and claustrophobic, how could she be so banged up like this. All this time he left Yoonji at home alone but nothing ever happened. The girl was smart enough without having to be watched.

"Aara.." call Mi-Soo.

"I'm a bad mother." Lirih Aara's.

Mi-Soo does not say, she lets Aara vent her feelings of sadness. She knew how Aara felt because Yoonji was a precious treasure that she had, more precious than anything else. It may also be more important than money. If it's more important than money why should it be left behind? We have to live realistically. If we don't make money, how do we live? This is not the era of ancestors who seek food not by buying.

Aara lifted her face as the door of the treatment room opened. A man in a white robe typical of medical personnel came out from there, Aara immediately approached to ask the state of her daughter.

"How's my daughter doing, Doc?" Ask Aara.

"Mother's daughter lost a lot of blood. Before the accident, was he experiencing any health problems? Because based on the examination, it turns out the patient has symptoms of typhoid."

Tub hit by a large stone, Aara's head felt heavy and dizzy. How could she ignore Yoonji's health and since when did the child get sick? Even this morning she still saw that Yoonji was fine. Or maybe not.

His body is dazed backwards, fortunately Mi-Soo immediately caught Aara's body so as not to fall and invite her to sit in a chair. The doctor leaves after Mi-Soo says thanks.

"How can I ignore Yoonji?" Lirih Aara's.

"That's it. It's all happened and you shouldn't blame yourself. There must be a reason why Yoonji didn't say she was sick. You worked so hard all this time and I think Yoonji feels too sorry for you." Mi-soo.

While at the company, Seokjin is shocked after Hwang's secretary says Aara's daughter is in the hospital. Secretary Hwang also said that Aara did not have time to say goodbye because she was too panicked and Seokjin did not matter to it.

The man is seen pressing on his phone screen, about to contact someone. But suddenly his feelings were doubtful, whether he should contact her or not. Eventually Seokjin chose not to contact the person. He kept his phone in his pocket and prepared to leave, although he had to meet with the marketing manager for a few minutes.

"Deploy me to meetings and appointments today. I have to go to the hospital." Seokjin said to Hwang's secretary.

Young Joon just nodded and allowed his boss to leave. There was a look of worry on the handsome face of his boss. Is there maybe something between the two of them, because since Aara's arrival here a lot of weirdness in the company. About the appointment of Aara who became a secretary when the man already had a secretary. And also very unlikely if the education is low but given a high position.

"Does the big master know about this?" Murmured secretary Hwang.
