Vienna
33. I'm Fine.

This morning, still confined to shivering temperatures, Reyna opened her eyelids slowly as the waker's clock on the nightstand woke her up. Grabbing her half-conscious, Reyna sat down. Massaging his temples at a glance. Then he looked at the calendar hanging on the wall of his room.

It's past the twentieth, and he plans to apply for year-end leave tomorrow. Because he had missed his mother and younger brother in the village, longed for it.

He wanted to return home during the turn of the year, and also, about his promise to meet someone there.

A person's face is clearly depicted in memory, never falling apart even though he tries to destroy every detail of the features that in fact he is increasingly unable to forget. It's like a wound that can't go away.

I think he wants to go see Jimmy today. Saying something privately might lighten up a bit of his burden, so, roughly.

Reyna blinked and got up from her bed to the window, opening the curtains that in fact showed the sun shining dimly today. Seeing a glimpse of the scratch scar on his left wrist, visible streaks that are still reddened, his heart ached. Really Painful. But he tried to smile, grateful for having a friend as good as Hyuji who was still loyal to his side. Even though he is falling.

Walk back to the nightstand and sit in front of the bed. Grab a cell phone and seek Jimmy's contacts to make an appointment with a young man who is also Reyna's personal psychic doctor.

He breathed a sigh of relief when Jimmy gave a quick response, even though they could only meet later in the day.

Twelve and ten minutes later, Reyna arrived at a cafe and sat at one of the tables near a stretch of glass that showed the streets of seoul daylight that was quite quiet today.

A view seized his attention, where two lovers walk through the cafe hand in hand, talking to each other, also reciprocating with attention and a warm smile.

And the daydream disappears when a waitress comes to offer a menu, Reyna decides to order two warm Cup americano. Jimmy also loved Americano.

Until finally the awaited arrive, Jimmy came in a casual dress and thick jacket, then sat right in front of Reyna. He hoped that they would not be awkward when talking later, considering that he was not like Hyuji who was good at starting talks.

"Sorry late! There's a little business I need to finish! "

"It's okay! I just got here too! "

"Oh, then, what would you like to order a drink? " ask Jimmy enthusiastically while taking off his jacket.

"I've ordered a warm americano! You like to drink americano too, right? "

Jimmy nodded, making Reyna relieved of not making the wrong order.

"So, is there something you want to talk about? " jimmy's voice was heard again, he folded his arms on the table which in fact felt colder than he expected.

Reyna was stunned for a moment. His head was afraid of mispronouncing.

"I'm actually bored at home! Hyuji is coming home to daegu! Did I trouble you, Jim? "

"No, of course not! I'm free today! But there's something I need to do this morning! That's why I can't see you in the morning. All right, now let's talk about anything! "

Apparently, the atmosphere was not as good as he had imagined. Jimmy turned into a friendlier figure outside the clinic.

"I heard you were just hospitalized?" jimmy asked, somewhat sensitively, but Reyna had complete trust in the young man before her.

"Eummm. " nodded, giving Jimmy a short answer with fingers crumpled on his thighs, under a cold wooden table.

"Now, how are you? "

"Pretty good! I even started working again! "

"You... are still there? " ask Jimmy hesitantly as he tilts his head slightly.

Reyna nodded, she did not know how to do it and looked for a job where else if she went from the Val family-owned insurance company, where she currently works.

"Rey, I told you it wouldn't be okay for you, would it?! "

Jimmy frowned and looked, actually what made Reyna unable to forget the figure of her lover.

"I have a leave of absence during the new year, and I'll be going home to daegu for a few days! " he continued trying to shift the subject.

"Good, maybe you can use it to refresh your mind! "

Right, Jimmy should have supported him like that. Although Reyna never said her goal to return to Daegu was to meet Val.

"Really! I want to do that! "

"So have fun during your holidays! " Compense Jimmy to Reyna who is currently also looking at him.

"What are your hopes for this year, Rey? " soo Jimmy along sip the warm americano that just put waitress on their desk.

Suddenly, the music in there turned into a soft-sounding instrument.

"I? Just simple! I wish my mother always had health, my sister too! I hope next year will be better! " Reyna paused for a moment. Then continue, "Yes, I hope it's okay! "

Mondays,

Where all activities become like a dejavu, busy, and even make the mind become more stressful because of the amount of work to be done.

Reyna came with a year-end leave application letter to the head of the division. The figure of the leader of the division is still the same when giving him the spirit of some time that has passed. Mr. Park.

Knock on the door, then open it slowly. He saw Mr. Park was busy at his work desk, there was someone standing on his right side. Not wanting to disturb, Reyna sat on the waiting chair available in the spacious room. Waiting for his turn to speak while staring blankly at the white envelope on his hand.

A second later, the view was raised again to admire nature. Seen faint behind the stretch of glass, the twilight light is always beautiful. Reyna even always liked the color of his waist, until he was unknowingly confused. Injured in shock when another presence that had been beside Mr. Park suddenly walked out and bowed to him, followed by the sound of Mr. Park who was heard crossing his shade.

"Reyna, what's the need? Comehere! "

"A, Nee... "

The sound of Reyna's shoes filling the whole room, then handed the white envelope that he had looked at Mr. Park. "I want to apply for Park-nim's year-end leave! "

Mr. Park opened the envelope and read the leave application letter, then affixed their signature and devision stamp.

"I'll tell you tomorrow! I have to ask the CEO for approval first! "

"Ah, fine! Then I say retreat... "

Mr. Park nodded, but again stopped Reyna's steps when he was almost at the door.

"Rey... "

Reyna turned her head for a moment, her long mane also turned and fell in front of her shoulder wrapped in a jet black blazer.

"Nee? "

"You're okay, right? " ask Mr. Park to make sure.

In the remaining shock, Reyna twists her eyeballs at a glance, looking for answers that would be right for her to say. Then looking back at the torso of his revision head, not wanting to show the inner wounds he suffered, Reyna gave a warm smile to the middle-aged man while nodding convincingly.

"Yes, of course, I'm fine! "[]
