"hnn.. Hmm.. Actually I need someone here with whom I can share the burden of work. And who can handle things in my absence. First I thought to call you here. But then over there also your presence is needed. After all I have my absence over there too."
"If you don't mind.. Then I can recommend someone." said the vice president Liam Hui.
"hnn.. No. I have the perfect person in my mind.. He is capable but without proper title no one will take him seriously.. So I have plan to make him the managing director. He will be in charge over here in my absence and you will be in charge over there in my absence."
" If you don't mind.. Then why don't give him the title of Vice president. Likewise its just a title to me. I don't held much share to become the vice president. Its you.. Who had done the great favour to me. And board of directors have no say in front of you."
Saying this he chuckle.
Because.. Most of the shares are in the hands of five friends.. And the other four will never question shiha. They will let shiha do whatever she wants. And remaining handful people who held Tang corporation's share will never go against them.
Shiha shook her head.. "Hnn.. No, you deserve this position. After all you have considered me as your sister. As a sister..i want my brother to be at the best position."
Liam Hui gave a acknowledging smile.
Shiha had helped him a lot. Now its his to return the favour. "I will never let you down sister shiha."
Listening this shiha chuckled.. After talking for a while. They ended the call.
Shiha continued her work on the laptop.
The dark sky was now turning grey.. The early birds started their day..
Shiha stood near the railing. The cold fresh breeze touched shiha's face. Shiha took a deep breath. Somehow again she remember Ruihan's face.. His caring nature.. Unknown to shiha.. Her lips curve into a beautiful smile.
Shiha closed her eyes.. 'No shiha.. You can't fall for him. You have to ignore him. Otherwise again you gonna destroy everything.'
Shiha tries to control her thoughts and emotions.. She stood there for almost more than hour.
The sun was about to show its face. The crepuscular rays broke through the dark grey clouds..
After witnessing sunrise, shiha went to take a bath.
She filled the bathtub with warm water.. Her body was aching.. Specially her legs. After standing for more than an hour.
Shiha removed her night robe.. Now she was in her shorts and crop top.
She sat inside the bathtub with her clothes on. She took a partition and kept it ahead of her. To not let the water touch her shoulder.
She relax herself.. Unknown to her.. Her eyelid gets heavy and she slept inside the bathtub.
After all shiha loves the hot bath.. She always use to take a nap when the tub is filled with warm water.. It was somewhat her habit. It make her relax and refresh..
After an hour.. Mu jin entered inside shiha's penthouse..
When he didn't find shiha in living room he knock the bedroom door..
"shiha.. Shiha.. Are you there?"
But no one answered.
Mu jin walked towards the balcony.. He spotted the laptop over there on the coffee table.. 'means she didn't leave yet.'
He turned and again walked towards the bedroom. "shiha.. Shiha are you sleeping?" he turned the knob and opens the door. The bed was empty..
Mu jin look around.. Then his sight fell on the bathroom's door.. He knock the door.. "shishi.. Are you taking the bath?"
No one reply..
Again he knock the door with a bang..
"shiha.."
"Huhh.. What the hell is going on.. First! Early in the morning Mia called me and said to look after shiha.. And here shiha.. Don't know where the hell she is.." he grunt.. He was about to left the room.. When he suddenly recall something.. He instantly went towards the bathroom.." shiha.. Shiha! Don't say you slept inside the bathtub again."
When he didn't gets the response. He tries to open the door.. But! Then he realised.. That! Now they are grown-up.. What if she is not wearing anything..
He run towards the exit.. Thank God he spotted the room attendant on the time..
" Hey.. Immediately come and help me."
The girl in her early twenties walked towards him.. "Sir! How do I help you?"
Mu jin walked inside and said.. "Help me to check the bathroom."
The room attendant was confused.. But she followed inside.
Mu jin stopped outside the bathroom and said.. "open it and go inside.. See whether there is someone inside."
The room attendant follows the order. She open the bathroom door and walked inside.. As she moved inside she saw a beautiful girl lying inside the bathtub.. The first thought was.. 'sleeping beauty inside the Bathtub' She run towards her.. "Ma'am.. Are you alright?"
When Mu jin heard the voice.. "what happened? Can I come inside?"
The staff attendant look towards the door and said.. "yes sir.. You can. She is in her cloths."
After getting the answer.. Mu jin went inside.. When he saw his friend sleeping soundlessly inside the bath tub.. He gets furious.. "SHIHA.. How can you sleep like a pig inside the bathtub.."
Shiha jiggle from her sleep.. She waved her hand.. "hnn.. So noisy.."
"Noisy.. My foot."
He moved towards shiha.. He make shiha stand up.. And handed the bathrobe to her..
From the look of shiha.. He can say! Something is off..
"Did you forget.. Your shoulder is not yet heal." said Mu jin.
Shiha gave a annoying look.. "can't you see the partition?"
Mu jin ignore her..
"Remove your wet clothes and wear the bathrobe" saying this he went outside the bathroom.
Shiha stand there in daze.. The same goes for the room attendant.
Shiha gave a look to the room attendant..
Room attendant immediately came to sense.. "ahhnn.. Ma'am, may I help you?"
Shiha shook her head.
Mu jin turned around and said.. "You can bring the ginger tea and breakfast."
After getting her order, the room attendant left the room.
Mu jin went over to the living room and sat on the sofa..
Shiha took her time.. She completed her bath and came outside wearing a white bathrobe.
Her freshly washed hair were dripping with water..
Just like that also! shiha was looking gorgeous.
By the time she came out the room the breakfast was ready on the table.
The room attendant served everything neatly on the table.. As she turned around.. She saw shiha coming out from her room.. 'ahh.. She is so gorgeous.. She look like an angel'
Mu jin too saw her.. He was still furious.. How can she be this careless..
Shiha saw his expression.. She smiled and throw herself on him.. "I missed you.."
Mu jin wrap his arms around her.. "what happened..I can say something is off.. Early morning Mia asked me to look for you. How can you be this careless? You should take care of yourself."
Shiha giggled.. She tight the hold around him.. "No one cares about me.. Why should I care.. I also don't want to care about me.."
Now Mu jin understood.. Her mood is low.
He turned towards the room attendant.. "Please! Bring the cheese cake and Cannoli, Sprinkled with lots of chocolate chips."
Saying this he carries shiha in Princess style and made her sit on the chair for breakfast.
The room attendant was mesmerised by this.. She can't believe.. She don't know the identity of either of them. But she is sure there are from high society..
'so cute.. So sweet..' thought the room attended.. She wrap her thoughts and left to complete her order.
Mu jin serve the breakfast in shiha's plate.. "what happened?"
Shiha took a bite.. "Nothing.. Its just i didn't saw you from last few days.. So I missed you."
"ahh.. Really? You missed me.. Ahh.. Seriously!! you missed me" said Mu jin with playful tone..
Shiha smack his arm and gave the killing glare.. "of course I missed you Okay.."
"ah.. Fine.. Fine.. Okay. You missed me. Now speak, what's wrong?" he spoke with a serious tone like a big brother.
Shiha smiled.. "Nothing. Its just last night I had a nightmare. And then I didn't sleep. I talked with Mia and then with Liam Hui. Mia was worried that's why she called you. And when I went to take a bath.. I felt asleep. I was tried too. There is nothing to worried about."
Mu jin gave a side hug to her. When he touched her hairs.. It were still wet.
" you are wet"
"hmm.. I gonna dry it after breakfast"
Mu jin stood up and went inside the room. He came out with the hair dryer.. "let me help you.. It had been long time since i help you in drying your hair."
Shiha gave a smile.. And let him dry her hair.
When the room attended entered.. She saw shiha was eating and Mu jin was drying her hair.. 'hnn.. I wish, i also have such a partner. So caring and handsome..' she walked towards them.."sir, your cheese cake and cannoli."
Mu jin nodded and said her to keep it on the table. After that the room attendant left the suit.
Shiha took on of the cannoli.. She hummed.. And said.. "You surely know how to make up my mood.. Thanks.. Love you."
Mu jin chuckled and kissed her forehead.. "Anything for you."
After which shiha throughly enjoyed her cake and cannoli.
