CEO At Me

New life and death

This wasn't the first time he'd warned her not to be rude to their current boss. Something inherent in her made her slightly arrogant while she had a point to defend from him.

"Jisun please" I pleaded just as we exited from the meeting room.

She strolled ahead furiously,
"What does he think of himself. If he raises the market rates then it would only cause more debt than profit"

I stood helpless,
"Yes I know I know but we can't stand a chance against his decisions. He is our boss. Not you or me"

She scoffed making me worriedly hold her hands.

"Come with me" I pulled her to the terrace of our company building.

It stood above a huge 14 floors and we could readily see the city kilometers away from up there.

"Jisun"

She yanked my hands away forcefully
"Leave me alone! DONT BABYSIT ME!!"

I was taken aback at her refute. She had never been so angry with me until now but this side was just an outburst. Though I knew her I couldn't help keep a long face.

I turned around and looked down. I was sightly hurt. She knew I was trying to be her support then why did she yell now?

Just when I decided to let her be and walk away, before keeping my first step ahead she held my hand back. I stood in my place, not willing to turn around until slowly her body draped mine from behind.

"I'm sorry" she mumbled the words from inside my back. Her face dug into my torso.

I just sighed and looked up not knowing what to do with her.

"Sorry Taehyung. I know I shouldn't have said that"

I couldn't resist turning around and held her shoulder with both my hands. Face to face I looked at her in the eye,
"Jisun, I can never be angry with you. I understand if you scold me but will you understand what I'm trying to do too? Please"

She nodded her eyes teary and lips biting.

It just took me a second of thought before I pulled her on me and wrapped my hands around her securely.

She yielded but her hands were still beside her body. I caressed her head that was now resting on my chest.

"Everything will be fine. I promise. I'll do anything in my power to give you a happy life. Trust me"

Jisun pov

Those words were sufficient. It penetrated my heart deep making me feel that I'd lost him all these days.

I realised that I'd been looking for a non existent, unconditional love, keeping one right beside me.

That's when my hands moved faster than my head. It held his torso and completed the hug.

Felt safe. I felt protected. I felt alive.

Just then the door to the terrace opened widely. It startled both of us and made us move apart quickly.

Taehyung looked at the person and sighed in despair.

"Yahhh!!" He smacked his neck.

"Oucchh! Hey I wasn't spying or anything okay. Just came here to invite you guys for lunch" The squishy faced man said.

I was slightly embarrassed.

"You coming too Jisun?" He asked me making me span out of the awkwardness.
