Sitting in his office Gold seem exhausted, despite his calm facade one could still tell he was not okay, the fact that he hadn't changed his clothes from last night said it all.
He was sitting on his chair quietly looking at his computer he seem so serious and a trace of fatigue could be seen from his eyes.
As it seem he hadn't slept either he was working like a machine, not sure what he was working on so serious because all work of the week seem to be done by him and still he was working.
Ken didn't dare make a sound as he watches his boss lose himself in work and distract himself from what he wanted the most.
When it was time Ken brought his breakfast as the man seem to have stayed in the office and was yet to eat anything, eversince he buried himself in his work he didn't leave.
Ken was okay to have him as a stalker than a scared cat hiding away from his problems like that.
Though he didn't know why he was like that Ken felt sorry for his boss who had for the first time taken interest into something else than work and yet was unable to get it.
Eversince he knew him, he had always been serious man work was his interest and what he knew hardly anything ever interest him.
But looking at him right now it seem like his boss was really taken by miss Night but from the look of things he wasn't having it easy because Night seem adamant to divorce him.
And had already left home now he couldn't even return home and was sleeping at random places sometimes not even sleeping at all.
Feeling sorry for him Ken didn't know what to do to help his boss if he could change anything he would have do it to help him.
" What time is it?" Gold finally asked after a long silence but yet to raise his head from where he was looking.
" It ten past twenty" Ken replied and the man went silent.
" She must have already left"Hearing his answer he stopped what he was doing and with sad voice he mumbled quietly and Ken knew what he was thinking about.
His boss lady.. no soon to be ex-wife of his boss was leaving for the country side and Gold was doing everything in his hands not to follow her,
because if he did she might really leave him without looking back as she didn't want anyone to know about her decision and her grandmother was one of them she wouldn't want her to know but Gold was not sure if he could keep calm until she comes back.
Staying away from her was so difficult and he had to restrain himself so much to do so.
Later on while he was alone a lot of things were running in his mind and did nothing but add regret.
How he had end up like this!.
----------
It was six months ago after his grandfather called him back from the base, his grandfather was the only person who cared for him after what happened to his father.
So he had a weak side for the old man and would always listen to him.
The old man had insisted for him to leave military and come back home since he was already old and had nobody to trust with their family business.
Gold was not one bit interested with anything of such and coming home made him feel sick especially when he had to encounter the hypocrites family members.
" Adam I won't force you into anything but at least think about what your father had worked hard for, will you let it all go to ruin in the hands of incapable people?" the old man said and he only listened with no expression on his face, he knew his father was his weakness and definitely wouldn't want to disappoint him.
" Also with the power in your hands you will be able to find her" old man Gold said but only to have an extreme reaction from the man.
" I have no intention of finding that woman!" Gold said sternly and he could say no more.
He knew his mother was another sensitive spot of his but only in an ugly manner.
Gold used to love his mother a lot but after what happened in the past she was the most hateful person in his heart.
After making his mind Gold decided to go for it and helped his grandfather run the business despite his love for military work and respectful position.
It was not easy but the old man had a lot of influence and power in the base having him back was a matter of blink of an eye, even Gold himself couldn't believe he was free just like that.
But that wasn't what reminded him of his arrival, it was the family's scheme and wierd demand from the succession of the position.
As if they aim to make things difficult for him, as if they could make him give up the position.
While they knew his hate for getting bounded they had one for him which he could not escape less he let go of everything including the position.
That was until he found himself a solution and that was her!.
It was temporary but didn't know how things got out of hand and he was the one to start all.
One moment she took his interest another he needed her just as much as she needed him.
She was the perfect candidate likewise he was for her.
They both knew what they want and made sure to fulfill it.
But the moment he laid his eyes on her he knew she was his destruction and savior but was stubborn enough to make things hard for himself.
And that reminded him of the cage he built himself and now he was suffering the consequences.
