Vienna
03. POVS.

Until when my time will run out just to try to let go without taking off. It seems sad, but that's the reality. It's not as easy as turning the palm.

Walking against the current where I should just follow it, it would be easier if it were like that. But not until I find a shadow of myself, standing in the same place, with the same heart and the same feelings. Pathetic right?

You idiot!!

This morning it was the same, doing the same work and activities. I know I still have to work for the necessities of life.

There was a bit of commotion at the office today, a crowded lobby, a whisper I always heard all the way to the desk. I frowned, trying to digest the atmosphere.

However, shortly afterwards I saw Hyuji running away. Cutting the distance with me, and with a breath of breath Hyuji stopped my steps that almost reached the work desk.

"He's arrived in Korea Rey?!"

"Who?"

"Son sir Kim! I only saw his broad back, and I'm sure he's very handsome!"

"How do you know someone is handsome just by looking at Hyu's back?!"

"Trust me Rey!"

I smiled to see my friend as happy as that, but I missed it, the handsome face that my best friend saw. To be honest I was just curious as handsome as what Hyuji meant, is it like actor Park Seo Joon? Or even like my favorite boy band member, Kim NamJoon. Ah, obviously I was unlucky today.

"Okey, we just continue our work~ no need to hallucinate too far! "

"iissshhhhhhhhhh...! " it was upset in a careless tone, then turned around and left just like that. Hyuji was stubborn and a little spoiled.

I shook my head faintly at my best friend's behavior, then continued my steps and sat down at work. Turn on the computer and get ready to start work this morning. I lowered my head with a smile remembering something Beautiful while looking at the letters that appeared on the computer monitor. The shadow where the owner of the initials stared with a boxy smile that was able to tear down my world for almost 2 years. And we separated six years ago. The story is not beautiful enough to tell. Ah, that's fucking.

Until another misfortune came, a client scolded me loudly on the phone line.

"Yes sir, we can't process it because you didn't follow the procedures of our insurance company, you should have reported it before 24 hours!"

The client remained unaccepted and still insisted in his opinion, wanting the company to disburse insurance funds on car damage due to a minor accident that he experienced, he said, he even threatened to report me to the boss to be fired for not following what he said.

"You're threatening me? Please come to the company! Let's finish together carefully, I wait for your arrival today until four o'clock in the afternoon sir! Good afternoon... "

I roughly put down the phone, so upset. Of the many complaints that come in, the client is the most annoying. Stretch the neck muscles and lean roughly on the back of the chair while massaging the temples. I know I shouldn't have acted that way, and it's not the first time I've had a tough fight and it's going to end at the boss's desk. My mood's not good, I've tried softly, but that customer is outrageous.

Today's lunch was tasteless, but the menu was very suitable for my taste, dakgalbi, there was beef rib soup as well, kimchi, and garlic that had been cooked so much.

"There problem? " question HyuJi broke the silence

"Eumm... "

I don't want to talk much, and he knows I do too. Then we just kept quiet while eating the food given free by the company.

"Hyu, how about I get fired this time? "

my statement made the chubby-cheeked girl flinch, coughed until reddened and grabbed the glass of water next to her.

"Why are you suddenly talking like that?"

I bowed with a bitter smile. Trying to explain slowly to my best friend. Hyuji is good at giving motivating advice, I admit it as an advantage that no one else has, and only Hyuji has.

"You're gonna get through it, rey! You're a smart and honest girl! Mr. CEO won't fire an employee as good as you!" hyuji said as he grabbed my arm for him to wipe, channeling his positive energy.

I know, what HyuJi said is true, but the problem is that this customer is the owner of a large company and has been a customer since the company began to stand. I'm not sure the company will side with me.

"Hopefully!" my answer is not excited.

-

At exactly 3 p.m., I got a call to the head office of the division. I ran there a little, opened the glass, and I saw the head of my devil sitting opposite a man with hair almost completely covered in gray hair. I put my feet closer, and bowed in respect.

"So he challenged me to come here?"

I really don't want to lose my job, what would the fate of my parents and sister if the company terminated me unilaterally.

The old man smiled faintly, impressed with disdain. And I don't like to be underestimated. "Well young man! I've been your customer for twenty years, and I've never made a claim!"

"I know, sir, let's solve this problem fairly! Reyna Ssi, explain to me the problem!"

"I rejected Mr. Choi's claim because he was late in filing the claim after more than twenty-four hours of the company's terms! And I think I'm doing this company's procedures without any mistakes!"

Mr. Park nodded in agreement, then I directed a glance at the old figure sitting in front of Mr. Park. He smiled faintly once again, setting my brain on fire. I know he's rich and has everything, but he has to know he can't do everything he wants.

"Mr Choi was late in filing a claim that made the company unable to cash out the insurance funds! Lord Choi had a minor accident on the twenty-three at seven in the morning, and should have reported on the twenty-fourth before seven in the morning, after the accident had occurred! But he just reported today, the twenty-fourth day is eleven o'clock!" I continued to explain more specifically.

"You've only been having a tickle about the clock and date since! "

"Because it is my benchmark of working the honorable Lord Choi! " my answer is a little slender. My patience was really tested today, it was really exhausting.

Mr. Choi smiled again, this time more terrible "Find me with the CEO of this company! I want to withdraw all the insurance I've been paying for all this time! And I'll stop being a client at your insurance company! "

My heart stopped beating. Oh my God, why is this so silent? I just want to run what is the company's terms. Or I should give up my job this time.

"We can't be that easy meeting our CEO sir-"

"You think I'm a stupid old man huh!! " said mr. Choi getting angry, pounding the table hard, making my heart almost dislodged because of it. As much as possible I held back tears so as not to fall during this fierce debate.

"Call her secretary and tell her if I want to talk to her! "

"Master, we-"

"Or do you want me to call her from my phone! "

I saw a look of annoyance on Mr. Park's face, but he immediately connected the phone to the secretary number in the CEO room, I heard two beeps and then a very soft voice greeted from across.

"Nee... Secretary Kim's here"

"Secretary Kim, I'm Mr. Park from the cutomer service division, please tell the CEO, there's a customer who wants to meet in his room! "

"Sorry Mr. Park, the CEO is busy!"

"I'm asking you for secretary Kim, just tell me Mr. Choi wants to meet! "

"All right, wait a minute "

Sounds of diversion, my heart thumping incoherently. Either because of fear or filled with emotion in the old man before me. The soft voice greeted me back from the phone call.

"The CEO allows you and Mr. Choi to come to his room "

So, without wasting any time the three of us headed for the room at the top of the insurance building, I just looked down uneasily. I'm innocent, but maybe good luck wouldn't have sided with me if I got a letter of dismissal after this.

Until the elevator door opens, and I can summarize the brown door with a tree fiber motif at the end of the room. I had never set foot in this place at all, and my eyes were patterned as the wooden slats were pushed by Mr. Park. The lavender scented room greeted the olfactory senses, with a fairly cold temperature, I saw a very beautiful secretary greet the three of us, I replied respectfully.

Just the sound of our shoes clashing with the Cream-colored marble floor echoed through the room. The secretary also talked to the old man, until the secretary only knew him? so he really has a close relationship with the owner of this company?

There's another door there, made of frosted glass that looks pretty thick. I'm sure it's the room. The room that will be our last port, and also the end of my employment history.

Really shit!

The beautiful secretary surnamed Kim grabbed the doorknob, opening it slowly. I was in the back row, not wanting to go in there, but a familiar scent began to greet the olfactory senses a second time, Chamomile. Reminds me of someone.

I also heard the voice of the old man greeting the familiar figure of the company's top brass. There seems to be no hope for me anymore, end my history. My steps were pinned on the doorstep, I was worried that my fear would come true.

Until Mr. Park's voice called my name, telling me to enter the same room. "W-w... Nee Park-nim's... "

But my eyes are getting more and more blurred, this time more sore. Making my eyes water, my already weak legs become more and more imperceptible, not out of fear.

Someone who's been almost six years I've never seen was right in front of me. Val.[]
