MY FATE

Chapter 76- It's Not Possible, Right?

Hiroki sat in his office thinking about what just happened. What was he doing? Did he fall for Kirihitho? No, that's not possible. It should not be possible! Kirihitho is Hikaru, his brother's boyfriend. He could not be like this! He didn't want to turn into a boyfriend stealer! He rubbed his face in frustration and banged his head on the table to bring some stability in his thoughts. He quickly reminded himself that he is here for work and not this nonsense so he quickly started working.

Soon it was five in the evening i.e. time to leave. He packed his things in haste intending to leave but again things didn't go as he planned. Just as he was about to enter in lift, he was dragged away by an angry looking Tatsuya. 

Hiroki by then was used to getting dragged so he let his body lose and just went any where Tatsuya was intending to take him. They soon reached in an isolated corner of the building. Tatsuya pulled out a cigarette and started smoking while looking outside. Hiroki frowned when he smelled the smoke and started coughing. Tatsuya looked at him with amusement and said," Can't handle smoke?"

Hiroki nodded.

Tatsuya chuckled," Then get used to handle it." And he smoked directly on Hiroki's face causing him to cough more.

Tatsuya was getting irritated," Hiroki, you should not displease your boss."

Hiroki looked at him with red eyes and tried his best to suppress his coughing while Tatsuya continued smoking his second cigrate. After he was done, he looked at Hiroki with utter disgust and said," Hiroki Kamazura, we have hired you because of your capability of handling our work. Don't mistake our gesture as something else, understand? I don't want to see you anywhere near Kirihitho or else" he leaned towards Hiroki's ear and wispered" I won't think twice that you are Hikaru's brother. Don't be a damn s**t."

He stood straight and smiled," Got it?"

Hiroki looked at him and nodded.

With a satisfactory sigh, Tatsuya left leaving Hiroki alone there. After Tatsuya disappeared from his sight, Hiroki crouched down and coughed badly. He really couldn't handle smoke.

At the Kamazura Mansion

Hiroki was in the kitchen drinking green tea when Mikarin and Itonome came in there. They both looked at Hiroki who completely ignored their existence or that's what they thought. In reality, he was busy reading an interesting case on his tablet causing him to concentrate completely on it and be oblivious to his surroundings.

Itonome tapped in front of him causing him to almost fall out of chair due to the scare. He stared at him with wide eyes and gasped out," What?"

Itonome raised his eyebrows in amusement and asked," How are you? How is the shoulder?"

Hiroki adjusted himself back in his previous position and said nonchalantly," It's okay. It doesn't hurt anymoreeeeee......"

He glared at Itonome who pressed on his shoulder. Itonome shook his head and said," As always, lying."

Hiroki looked at him in disbelief," Hey! If you press then it's going to hurt. How can you be so dumb?"

Itonome was offended," Dumb?! You-"

Mikarin started laughing causing both of them to look at her in shock. She immediately stopped and gave them the look of What? Have any problem?

They both immediately looked away and started doing whatever they were doing. Mikarin continued to give a look to Itonome who quickly understood what she was conveying and sat in front of Hiroki.

He cleared his throat, causing Hiroki to give him a questionable look.

He asked," What about the psychiatrist's appointment?"

Hiroki," My first appointment is tomorrow."

"Are you nervous?"

Hiroki laughed," This isn't my first time. I am fine."

Itonome and Mikarin looked extremely guilty after Hiroki said this causing them to exchange eye contact. Itonome continued," But, you know, that time was different than this time."

Hiroki smiled," I know. But surprisingly, I am not that scared. It will be fine. Don't worry."

Itonome laughed," I should be the one saying that you."

"Yeah, but you look more worried than I do."

Itonome stared at him for a while and then whispered," I am sorry."

Hiroki looked at him with a frown," What are you sorry about?"

"Everything."

Hiroki didn't know what to say after this. He looked at his elder siblings and sighed in his mind. 

The next day, in his office, Hiroki was checking on AD company's contract paper while Ravi stood in front of him, showing nervousness clearly on his face. He hesitated to ask," Is there anything wrong, head?"

Hiroki said with disappointment," Ravi, how long are you working here?"

"For about two years."

Hiroki threw the file on the desk," And this the contract you were able to make in three days?"

"..."

"Look, I am not trying to demotivate you but this contract is crap. Go and ask Sheila's help and remake it. It should be ready by tomorrow. I have to submit it to CEOs. Leave."

Ravi grumpily left the room and stood in front of Sheila. He handed her the contract and started complaining," Who does he think he is? He is so young than us and then also boss us around like we are the inexperienced ones. Damn it! I am starting to hate him."

Anna scoffed," I told you, didn't I? He is an asshole. Damn son of b**ch. You know, I heard a lot of rumours about him."

Ravi got interested," Really? Like what?"

Sheila also started listening.

Anna," I heard that he slept around a lot so that he can have connections. Also to win cases. In fact, the recent case he won against Shirahane's and Akio's was because he slept with the judge. And he used to bully his comrades a lot."

Ravi had his mouth open," Oh my god. That's so disgusting. How-"

"What's so disgusting?"

All three looked at Hiroki with wide eyes. 

Ravi stuttered," N-n-nothing, head! We were talking about this and that."

Hiroki nodded," You better concentrate on your work during office hours. If you want to gossip around, you are free to leave this job."

Ravi bowed his head down in shame," Sorry."

"Don't be sorry to me but yourself and this company."

Anna interrupted their conversation," Head, are you going somewhere?"

Hiroki gave her a look but replied anyways," Yeah. To the CEO's office. I will be back soon. After that, I want to talk with you about that land dealing."

"Yes, head."

He left after saying this while the trio continued to glare at his disappearing back. Ravi said loudly," F**K! He is annoying and irritating!"
