When the taxi got closer to my house, I heard sirens and the sound was getting louder and louder. When we got to my house i realised the police were at my house. I paid the taxi fare and stepped out of the taxi with ae-chan and chika in both arms. I opened my door and found that my ex was in my house. I put chika and ae-chan on the couch. I went outside to ask the police what happened and what they said made me furious.
"Excuse me officer what happened to my house"
"Your house?, the gentleman over there called us asking for help to get in his house because his girlfriend locked him out and the locksmith wouldn't answer.''
"No sir, this is my house, that is my ex boyfriend, we used to live together until today. I pay the bills and the insurance here"
"So this is your house?"
"Yes sir, if you need the paperwork i'll be happy to get them out but i'll need help."
"Please do, i'll help"
We went to get the paperwork while my ex sat on the bed. I told the officer to get them from the top closet. MMeanwhile i started getting mad at my ex, but I controlled myself because I was a little tipsy.
"What are you doing here telling the police this is your house?!"
"It is my house, I live here!"
"No you don't, I kicked you out today because you wanna go around and be a little cheater so I repeat, we.are.over!"
"Give me a chance please I'll prove to you that I can change!"
"I've known that you've been cheating on me for two years.. Two years! I'm not stupid, old habit don't change over night, when the police leaves you leave too!"
He stood there shocked when I told him that I knew for two years. The police finished checking the papers and they assured me that I did own and pay the bills to the house, so they told him to leave and that if he bothered me again at my house that I could call the police and press charges.
After they left he obviously left as well, but I went straight to sleep. The next morning all 3 of us had a hangover, luckily we didn't have any morning classes. The week passes by like normal till the day before I had to go to the company and meet the stranger at the bar. Obviously I'm taking some sort of defense mechanism for protection, although it seems useless to me, I've practiced the martial arts side young by an elder that found me by myself. I would go to practice with home whenever I had the chance. My parents never really paid attention when I went to play because they liked giving me space.
It was noon when i went to the company. I wanted to get there earlier so i can know what i'm supposed to be doing, and who i'm supposed to follow. I had a waist high skirt that reached a little below my knees, a white shirt tucked in with a small belt around, and a black tie. Before I went inside I pulled out the business card and called the stranger, but to my surprise someone else answered.
"Hello"
"Hello, yeah I'm Mitsuki, the temporary translator you hired from last night. I'm in front of the company. Could you please come out?"
"...."
*beep, beep, beep*
"He hung up on me.."
"Guess i don't have to work"
I shrugged it off and started walking away to the parking lot until I heard someone call my name.
"Miss, Li!"
I turned around to see who it was. It was none other than the stranger from last night.
"Yes?"
"Please come inside the building"
"Oh before we go my name is kang-dae, so please don't call me a stranger"
"Alright"
We headed inside and as soon as i stepped inside i felt stares, i felt uncomfortable. After a while I felt glares from the women there, I ignored it because I always felt those in college. We walked into the elevator, but it was a special elevator that should reach the CEO's office. I knew it reached up there because my father's company has one as well. What i didn't hear was the whispers i heard when i stepped inside the elevator.
"Who is she?"
"She went inside the CEO's elevator!"
"What relation does she have with the CEO"
"Is she some mistress?"
After a while we reached the top floor, the building was thirty stories high. When we got out of the elevator, i was shocked to see that there was only one door at the end of the hall. We started walking towards the end of the hall, I started getting nervous the closer we got and soon… we were in front of the door.
*knock knock knock, sir it's me"
