Sitting on a chair sipping my coffee, I am looking out of the window, thinking about what I have been through all these years, my past hunted me from the day when I saw my parents lying in their pool of blood, when, my mother told me to run away when I got to know that my mother was used to work for mafia and father was a secret agent who fell in love with each other and then got married, everything changed after that my life changed and I become a top agent to hunt those bastards down who was responsible for my parent's death. It all began when I got selected for the operation to deal with the biggest mafia in the country and the world for that I had to work undercover. I joined my best friends firm as an event organizer so that I could keep a low profile and could get information about him, the biggest mafia in the world.
After finishing all the details of our new project, I was going through all the updates, It is the most important project for our company as we are going to work with the Zang enterprise for the first time. Zang enterprise is known for its reputation as it was the top company in Y city. MR. Zang is one of the most eligible bachelors in Y city. We have to plan the 50th anniversary of the Zang enterprise. We have to plan it in a short period. We already were working on three different projects so this was very hectic. As all of our top managers were working on different projects that's why I had to work alone on this project.
"Are you done for today", Chris asked me with a raised eyebrow. "Just a little is left, I will finish it and head towards home, I replied while messaging my temples.
"Let's go after you finish then", he said and walked into my cabin and sat in front of my chair. I was making a presentation that we had to represent. I entered the last detail into the computer and saved all the information after taking a long breath I looked at Chris and passed him a bright smile and got up from my seat.
We started walking towards the basement to get our cars. I was working as an event manager in Chang Event Management a well-known company in Y city. The life of an event manager is hard as we do not get time for ourselves.
"Hey Cherry, Are you heading home," Chris asked me with a smile.
. "Yes of course", I replied.
"let us go for dinner as tomorrow is a holiday", he said.
"I am tired, I have to go to the hospital to check on my mother as well. Maybe next time, buddy", I replied apologetically. " Well, then in that case I think we should head towards our respective destination", he replied with a smug look.
"Okay, then bye", Chris. I hate to see him sad but I didn't have any choice.
Chris is my childhood friend and the CEO of this company. After finishing my post-graduation in event management he offered me a job in his company. It's been three years since I'm working in his company. Because of my introverted nature, it was quite difficult for me to make friends that's why I had only one friend. I am the only daughter of my parents that's why after the death of my parents I had to take care of everything.
Life has never been easy for me, I have been through a lot, from my studies to part-time jobs I did a lot for surviving in this world. I never get a chance to enjoy life like other kids my age did. I had to be very hard on myself for not giving up. Toady whatever I have achieved it's all because of my hard work and dedication.
After parking my car, I entered the hospital and head towards the cancer patient ward. Yes, my adopted mother is in the last stage of liver cancer, and her survival rate is very low.
"Mom, how are you doing?", I asked her while putting the soup on the table and sitting in front of her on a chair.
"I am fine", she replied with a faint smile. She looked pale and there was tiredness in her eyes. She was my mother's best friend that's why she adopted me as her daughter and took care of me all these years. She help me in hiding my true identity and never allowed me to go back to that place where all my miseries started. I love her and admire her the most because she is the only family left. She has a son who also is a secret agent and also my partner in this case. He is the chief of defense and that's why he is not able to accompany her mother. We both are best of friends and I always keep him updated about his mother's condition.
Cherry, please don't go this hard on yourself", mom complained.
"I am fine mom you don't need to worry about me just take care of your health," I replied in a worried tone.
"How is Chris?" she asked while sipping soup that I gave her for drinking.
"He is doing fine", I replied and took the bowl from her hand.
"Well, you should consider his proposal", she said with a frown.
"Mom, I don't want to talk about it", I replied annoyingly.
"You don't need to push yourself, Cherry you also need to live your life", she said sympathetically.
" Mom, please I don't want to talk about it you know very well that marriage is the last bit of my concern right now, I already have a lot on my plate", I replied sternly at that moment the door of the ward opened and the doctor entered the room for checking my mother.
"Hello! Miss Yang", he said with a lovely smile plastered on his lips.
"Hello! Mr. Kim", I replied with a faint smile.
"I want to talk to you, Miss yang please come to my office", he said after checking my mother.
We both went to his office. "Everything fine doctor", I asked as I entered his cabin.
"Your mother's condition is not good, she is not responding to her treatment, I am sorry Miss Yang but she has only a few days left", he answered apologetically.
Tears rolled down my eyes as I excused myself from him and dashed towards the park. I was trying to calm myself as it was really hard to take. My mother was my only family, if something will happen to her how will I survive? My mind was a mess and tears were continuously streaming down my face. I sat on a bench and closed my eyes as I was not able to bear the pain. Old memories started to flash in front of my eyes. For once in my life, I wanted to run away from all these pains and miseries. I didn't know how long it gonna take, but I am tired of everything that was happening in my life. Once in my life, I wanted to rely on someone, I wanted someone who can tell me that everything is gonna be fine. But I knew that there is none for me out there. I had to rely on myself and need to fight back no matter what. She took out her phone and dialed a number, shortly the call got connected and a very charming voice greeted her."Hey Klaus, how are you doing?"
"YOU CAN ONLY SURVIVE IN THIS WORLD IF YOU KNOW HOW TO FIGHT BACK.
