Jihha
==========================
I was typing furiously by hitting the keys on my keyboard mercilessly. Was I mad because of Luka? YES! But was I also angry on my out burst? Also yes! What I did back there was a low blow and that should not have been the case. "wooo....tell the staff to increase the heat! It is freezing all of a sudden in here!". I heard Carol saying that from outside and noticed the thin layer of fog on my computer's screen. I was doing that? COOL! Like literally! I stood up and took a sigh, breathing in and out multiple times and suddenly, the cold vanished. Everything has been so surreal that I really drowned myself into work and I was exhausted. I was going through dizziness and blurriness from the past few days and everything caused a little too much pain.
*knock knock*
The door opened, revealing Carol. He had files in his hand and a planner as well. He greeted me like usual and handed me my schedule for today. As as much as I was intrigued to go home as soon as possible and wrap myself with blankets and sleep, I was busy with meeting and other prior engagements equal parts! There is a price of everything. My first meeting of the day was with the strategy team and the last was with the Japan branch manager. And that meant that my day was starting in an hour. So me and my assistant picked up our pace and went out the door.
-----------------------------------------------------
"I still apologize that you have to fly all over here but I am equal parts glad!" the manager spoke and I humbly nodded. The manager was a woman in her early forties but she was extremely well maintained and AMAZING at her job. Our meeting ended around 5 pm and we bid our good- byes. A great luxury of being rich is the luxury of having a private jet. "OH! You have to hear this! 'Twenty eight years old multimillionaire, Jihha Lusik, does not stop or never want to stop? This hotshot businesswoman is the epitome of woman empowerment!' Well, VAV magazines really are your biggest fan!" Carol spoke as he examined the magazine. We were on our way back to New York. Normally, the stay would include a night as well but I just don't wanted to stay here.....maybe I am that tired? "Yeah...well they are also my biggest critic. Page 36, 'Jihha is ambitious and independent or maybe too independent that no man would want to hang around her!' The world we live in!" I said as Carol looked deeply unimpressed from the magazine's point of view.
"Hypocrisy be like! So what if one does not want any partner? There is more to life than male attention or whatever! Jihha! As your unofficial brother I support you!" Carol said while placing his hand on his chest as if he is taking an oath. I rolled my eyes and told him to keep on Carol-ing while I take a nap. I did not tell him that my whole body is aching really badly. I had no clue myself! I have worked way more than this last week but nothing like THIS happened!
-----------------------------------------------------
We landed past 10 pm or something and I wrapped everything in my office. I went inside my car and put on the seatbelt when an intense wave of dizziness took over me. Driving home like THIS was probably not a good idea so I grabbed water and an instant coffee packet and made myself coffee. Thanks the heavens for the automatic stove 'installed' on my palm now. I took my caffeine and felt immediately much better. I started my car's engine and let the systems get warmed up. I waited for a while and answered some email from my phone. After 5 to 6 minutes I took my car on the road. The roads were clear and traffic- free. It was peaceful and calm.
But I still felt uneasy. I have made a mental note to myself that I will demand an apology from Luka and get it out of him....as well as apologize myself. All of the thoughts just kept my mind so busy. The sudden call from my 'mother', the recent activities and the work, everything was messier than a mess and I just wanted to share my worried and burden with someone.....but with who? I would have called my aunt but she is not in the state of handling my tensions when she...herself, did not tell me about her decreasing health so I would not be bothered. One moment everything was well and the other moment, it all came crashing down.
I was driving well when I noticed my hand, shivering in off manner and all of a sudden, this weird pain took over my body. I immediately stopped the car on the side of the road and tried to take a huge inhale of air. Intense waves of dizziness took over my vision and everything went blurred. I felt something cold dripping on my hands and wrist and all I saw were crimson spots. Something moved around my face and my whole body was trembling. I raised my hands to my face and lifted my gaze towards my car's mirror. All I saw was blood. It was coming out of my nose. I tried to grab the tissues but even a slight movement against the seatbelt was sending thousands of shards of pain through my body and my head. It hurt so bad that my eyes began to tear up and I screamed in pain. My surroundings began to freeze and I coughed so hard, I coughed out blood and it sprayed all over the steering wheel, leaving a disgusting copper taste on my tongue as my own blood laced my mouths and lips.
My throat died down and I felt my body crashing under something's weight. All I was able to do was cry and scream but it was of no use. I was not even able to move to grab my phone so I can call any aid. Another wave of harshly intense pain took over, it was like needles in my body …And as for my veins, I can feel them almost bursting….is this it? I feel numb and the only thing I can feel is shattering cold and unbearable pain. ....I lay there as I did not know what was happening and I had no clue for how long I may survive.

"is this how you are taking your revenge on me?"
