Chapter 2 - UNSUSPECTING NEWS

Kyrah couldn't get rid of the feelings of uncertainty in her mind she kept wondering lost in thought what if Jinyoung didn't like me? what if it was because he felt pressured, i mean i cried a whole lot this morning and we were friends for years so why now? why did he only discover how he felt about me now?

Miss Kyrah? MISS! Linda screamed she was like a bone i couldn't get out of my throat why was she always the one to snap me back into reality, i really didn't want to come to work today but i had to because i already took two day's off to solve dad's money problems and i couldn't afford to get another pay cut. not now, and not ever. yes Linda, and what may i possibly help you with? i asked her with a frustrated look on my face the boss wants to see you she said hastily and left. why did Mr Kang want to see me? why all of a suden, i didn't get the promotion so probably because i was late for work ? whatever, i was so out of it still hung over from last night i just wanted to hide somewhere not see Mr Kang, seeing him is the last thing on my mind right now i kept mumbling in my head as i made my way to his office. As i knocked on the door i tried to check my breath if it still reeked of alcohol i wondered if the quick brush in the hotel bathroom did the trick i was in such a hurry not to run late for work Mr Kang's voice resounded through the glass door "come in" he said Mr Kang had alway's been a nice boss to me at least the only one in the company who understood how hard i worked and what i put into my work. sit Kyrah, he said in a warm tone.

Kyrah i understand you put your everything into the work you're given and it's well appreciated i also know you've been gunning for the promotion for a long time but it doesn't seem easy but there's very little i can do for you because i have to obey my superiors too...., honestly i could only hear up to that point and i got it i already knew i didn't get the promotion because i didn't have connections of course it wasn't because i was lacking in skills, i seriously did everything i could to get recognized but it didn't pay off at this point i had too many things to care about i couldn't care less. thank you very much Mr Kang, i totally understand i cut him while he was speaking if there's nothing else can i go back to my desk now? i asked him looking sullen you may go, he said, i thought he felt kind of guilty but i knew very well that he had no choice. i walked back to my desk and sat down with a thump i was exhausted you could say i was sick of everything i just wanted to quickly get through todays work and get off.

It was 6pm already everyone had gotten off work i was the only one left because i had to do all the leftover work why hasn't Jinyoung called though wasn't he supposed to call by now? isn't that how relationship's work? were we even in a relationship at this point i couldn't really tell because i had never been in any relationships before. but he said he loves me, or should i call him first? i didn't want to call him or it would seem as though i was already being clingy when we haven't started anything yet i'll just be patient and wait for him to call first.... i grabbed my bag and hung it on my shoulder. as i organized the documents on my desk, i pulled my chair in close to the table then i made my way out of the office building. I called for a taxi to take me straight home. on arriving home dad was there slouched down on the couch. I was just happy he wasn't out gambling but i was too lazy to pay him any notice i just wanted to get some sleep. the next morning, Kyrah woke up feeling more positive. she actually felt like she could get through the day feeling this way. she happily got ready for work, and looked in the mirror to see if she looked okay. she was alway's the plain jane never really into fashion so in her eye's the knuckle length skirt and turtle neck overcoat she wore and accompanied with Jewish sandals worked perfectly well for her. she made her way out of her room and into the living room and called out to her dad. i'm off to work, she didn't even wait for his reply before rushing out the door.

________At The Office________

As Kyrah walked into the office she could smell a new start she was determined to be happy no matter the set backs she'll face from now on. Good morning Linda, she said as she walked by. though she didn't get a reply she didn't let it get to her she put down her bag and settled on her desk but she could here all the murmuring sounds around her she smiled and tilted her head talking to herself. they're probably gossiping about celebrity news again when will you guy's ever get tired? Linda walked up to me looking dumbfounded i wondered if she was offended by what i said so i wanted to say i'm sorry but before i could utter the word's she was like haven't you heard, heard what? i asked, looking completely clueless. The news about Whoolim Group's only son... what? Whoolim? wasn't that Jinyoung's father's company? what's wrong, what happened to him? nothing, Linda said, he got engaged his engagement news is among the top searched in Korea right now she handed me her phone. look he's so handsome and she's so beautiful they look so good together. She's the second daughter of chairman Jang, of Jang Cosmetics, Jang Mi Rae don't you know her, she's all over the news some call her the nations angel. because she's cute and pretty all in one. now i understand why she worked at Whoolim when her dad has a company it was all for Jinyoung oppa she's such a dedicated girlfriend or should i say fiance, they're so compatible right Kyrah? Linda turned to me i couldn't say a word i was shocked i had been totally played was everything a lie?
