Chereads / The Lethal Contract / Chapter 8 - Accused

Chapter 8 - Accused

Haein's POV

I'm still feeling his warm touch everywhere around me. I literally faught with my inner Delusional joyment yesterday all day long . I want my every weekends to be like yesterday .

"Heyy Good morning Sweetie Sis " , the pretty looking boy picked his palm on air with a bright smile as I entered into the main office .

My palm reached his for a hi-fi ,"Good morning Teady Bro" . He gave me a bright smile . "How was your date yesterday?" .

His fabulous fair skin turned into blushy red . He was about to say something but Sejung came up and wrapped his arms around his shoulder ,"It was great , Haein , thank you so much , if it wasn't you , then I wouldn't have this opportunity in my life"

"It's okk Sejung , I'm glad that you guys are doing well" .

Well I must say , I became really close to everyone in this departure in a very short time , specially to Teady.

We got along because he had a secret crush on Sejung but couldn't confess and his tongue unfortunately or fortunately slipped infront of me . I knew Sejung felt the same because I noticed him to peap at Teady when ever he can and smile from the corner of his lips. So what I did is to make them confess to eachother and since then Teady called me Sis .

I walked past him to my desk with a smile and started to arrange the files.

Suhan approached my desk while running ,"Sorry Haein , I almost forgot about this file" , and handed me the file of new project the teams is working on .

"It's ok Suhan , I was about to go to you for this ".

"I would have reached earlier if I hadn't bumped with Minseok", He apologetically scratched his nape.

I smirked , " I bet you were looking at Bora".

"No .. am ...I mean .. yess ", his head hung low in blush as he pursed his lips in a thin line .

"When are you gonna confess? Or I have to take charge in this matter too ?"

"No no , Haein don't. I'll get killed if this feeling is not from both side ", he flung his palm on air to protest .

"And what if this feeling is mutual ?" It's mutual , I know .

"Then I'll have to look forward. But not now atleast ."

He greeted me good morning and went back to his desk..

[.....]

Ohhh.. Loey is late today .. I stood up automatically to greet good morning to my boss aka love . I was tensed if my cheeks are flashing because my heart is beating like a loud speaker at the sight of this 'breath taking perfect creation of God' who is slowly walking towards me to pass and enter into his office room.

But did he stayed up all night or something? Why does he look so tired? His face is pale .

"Good morning Boss .. Today ..."

and he successfully avoided slowly walked inside his cabin without looking at me. That made me realise, my breath. He never fails to play rude boss role but act like a silly boy when no one is around .

I slowly took my diary of his schedule , the files and reached the door . Before twisting the door knob I took a deep breath . Heart please don't dance .

"May I come in Boss" , I waited for his reply while pressing my lips together .

"Come in" , A deep but shaky voice reached my ears. I slowly twisted the knob to open and walked in .

Why his eyes are so fluffy as if he cried his ass off?

When I reached his desk his fingers were cramping the tissue paper and tossed it to the dust bin on the corner of his book shelf that was settled on the back of his desk .

I couldn't help but ask ,"Boss , are you feeling sick , should I call the doctor?" And unlocked my phone and clicked the phone icon .

"No need , it's - it's alright . I'm totally fine ", he looked away . Again .

I have no choice but to obey him . If I wasn't tied by my dark fate , I would have definitely pulled him by his Yoda ears to the doctor but I can't do it now .

"Boss you don't have any meeting scheduled for today ", I said searching the schedule book .

"Okk" , he said while fixing his gaze to the computer on his desk .

"And here is the strategy and design files for the new project", I outstretched my hand which was holding the files and he took it. I waited for his response or tell me to go .

He opened the first file which Suhan gave me . Turned some pages with frowned eyebrows and slaped it back on the desk with a sound.

"Are you kidding me? Is this how you do your job ?", He is totally pissed off for donno why .

"What happened boss ?"

"It's a presentation file Haein and you didn't check if it's arranged or not ."

"But boss I-"

"I don't want any explanation , go to the design house and please check properly if everything is going well with the costumes ", He made a very mad face . I'm still in confusion. I'm taking the blame for the work which I hadn't done.

I bowed and turned towards the door .

"Ahh I shouldn't have recruited her at first, I took this headache on me", he said more like whispering to himself but it reached my ears as well .

This words made me stop for a while but not surprised . I saw him rubbing his forehead with the tip of fingers from the corner of my eyes .

I know he is frustrated about something so I didn't feel to say something and twisted the knob to open and saw Suhan standing on the other side . He was holding a piece of paper between his fingers. I avoided him and went straight to the design House which was placed at the end of the office floor.

I stopped in the middle of the hallway When my phone buzzed .

"Hello"

"They got to know about the upcoming information so we had to change the location ", Johnny (my subordinate ) over the call said restlessly .

"What ?? How??"

"I- I was on duty but nothing happened so I dozed off for some moment. When the truck driver got the call , The other side tapped it before I did".

"And you are informing me now? You know how much risk we took to gather evidences through out the years . It's the last and the most important clue . If we lose this we will fail in this mission just because you were dozing off. You know how it will effect the National security system?" I whisper yelled looking back and forth. My palm automatically reached for my forehead .

"Sorry agent".

"Your sorry won't change anything Johnny. Does Master know about this?", I was looking for the last chance make everything right .

I left the charge on him just for one day and this happened. Why was I this much hooked in my emotions? Master won't let me go if anything happens for this error .

"Umm .. unfortunately. He contacted the ground house for information when I was trying to fix it and got to know everything. You know we can't lie to him. He himself made the changes in Planning "

I'm doomed ...............

"What should we do now, BlackFairy?"

"What else ? Send me the details and for god sake keep your eyes open ", before he could say anything I disconnect the call .

I need keep calm and think how to make everything right. Without thinking much for now , I headed toward the design house .

As soon as I entered I saw KyungSoo and Bora working on a mannequin with some clothes and sketches all over the table .

"How the process is going guys?", I spoke out with the whole energy I have and the turned their eyes on me in surprise .

"Good morning " , Kyungsoo waved his hand on air while fixing his spectacles with the other .

"Haein! What brought you here in this morning ?" Bora put her handful stuffs on the table and jogged to me .

"Boss told me to check on your work , so I came . May I help you with anything here. actually I don't have much work for today and I think it will be good if I stay here to give two more hands", I waved my hands. I really don't want to go back now.

"You always welcome ", Bora exclaimed.

Loey's POV

I took this headache on me . I'm regretting my every single actions rn . Even her shortest sigh is making me piss off with Confusing emotions.

One time I want to hug and kiss her . Cry out aloud while holding her on me . Next time I get angry on her stupid decisions . Then I feel like scolding her , slap her instant but I can't. Again I can't take my eyes off her .

As Haein walked out Suhan came in . Ah I don't wanna talk to anyone . please not again .

"Sorry Boss"

"For what "

"I took the presentation file for correction. While I was coming to give it back to Haein I suddenly bumped Minseok and our papers gone mixed. This page went to his file. He gave it back just now ." He put the piece of paper infront of me and bowed sorry again .

"It's okk you can go for now" , I muttered . My throat is paining like hell. I just accused her for no reason .

He walked out leaving me alone with my thoughts .

Again I messed up . FUCK MY LIFE . I can't help but curse . Took an attempt to go to her . No wait . Maybe she needs time . I'll go to her after checking this files .

I buried my focus into the hill of files .

But I can't focus .. again FUCK MY LIFE ......... Just go to her .. I rushed out throwing the pepers on desk..

Haein's POV

It's quite boring here because Bora and KyungSoo is too busy in there work as the deadline of final screening is coming near . But it's okk as long as I don't have to face Loey until his mind is little stable. I think I have keep my eyes on him harder . Maybe I missed something .

"Haein how is it ?", finally Bora called showing the well dressed mannequin ,"is this design ok?"

"I think we need to add something more" , KyungSoo spoke out while observing it from some inches apart .

It looked like something is missing in this dress , "Ummm.. you are right, I think it will look better if you add a little flower on the left shoulder ".

"Ohh. Right . You have a good fashion sense", Bora gave to thumbs up and three of us end up laughing. Now finally I feel relaxed .

"so we need a red fabric , Haein can you please give me the fabric roll from the shelf , thanks", Bora asked me and I walked to the corner shelf that was loaded with huge amount of fabric rolls and boxes .

I saw a red cloth and tiptoed to reach as it was on the fourth rack and I'm too small to take it out. I was struggling to pull it out and the whole shelf was shaking in this process.

Suddenly I felt a big chest against my back , a arm around my waist and another on the top of my head . A box which was on the top of the shelf fell over that figure. I turned my face and the next thing I saw two big puffy lips a inch apart from mine and two big marble like eyes looking at me with full concern .

"Are you ok?" The lip moved in a manner to speak and it buzzed inside my chest .

HAEIN.. YOU ARE FUCKED UP BY THREE SIMPLE WORDS .. WOW
