Foolish Fate

| SEVEN |

"Hello? Secretary Anna?" the man spoke.

"Mr Kim? Where have you been? Driver ahjushhi has been looking all around you, your meeting will start in a few minutes."

"I have arrived at the building, please make it clear to ahjusshi that I am already here." He said then hanged up.

He walked towards the reception to be greeted by a female receptionist. The girl was flustered to see a handsome man in front of her. 

"I'm here to meet the director. Kim Xiumin." He said.

JUNG JOOMI POV

"WHAT?" I screamed at my phone. "Sorry, sorry Chu ahjusshi." I said.

"No, its okay, but I have to go now and help my wife find Joohyuk."

"Okay, please call me and update about the situation." I uttered before hanging up. This, this can't be happening. Joohyuk never disobeyed me, never once.

I am not in my usual self right now, all I could think about is Joohyuk, and if he is safe. I reached for my bag and keys. I was almost at the door when suddenly I heard a knock, "Madam, Mr Kim Xiumin has arrived." No longer after that the door opened to reveal Mr Kim Xiumin. Or should I say Kim Minseok.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him.

"Joomi? Surprise to see you here." He said.

"Why are you here? Where's Mr Xiumin?" I kept bombarding him with questions.

"Don't you know? I am Kim Xiumin." Wait what?

"How?" This is really confusing me.

"I studied abroad, and I got that name." He said as he sat on my office couch.

I stood there in silence, I never expected this to happen. I just looked at him, suddenly another face comes into mind. 

Joohyuk. 

I NEED TO GO.

3RD PERSON POV

"Joohyuk, why were you alone? Its dangerous out there." The guard said trying to teach Joohyuk a lesson.

"I know ahjushhi, its just that I want to tell eomma something. I'm sorry." Joohyuk said while his head down.

"Its okay as long as you know what you did, promise never to do that again okay?"

"Ne ahjusshi."

Grrrr...

"It seems like you are hungry Joohyuk." The guard laughed.

"Can I have some food? I'm really hungry."

"Gurae, come here." He said while letting Joohyuk sit down and bought biscuits from the vending machine.

Joohyuk was happily munching on his food.

"Let me call, my wife, okay? She's your eomma's secretary, to let them know your here. I am sure she is very worried about you."

"Ammeyo, amjuthi. Pleeze dun't mell eobba I'm hur. Its a serbrise."

The guard just laughed at him, and simply texted his wife about Joohyuk's being.

 JUNG JOOMI POV

"So, how are you Joomi? Its been a while." He said, chuckling.

"Mr Kim, please let us keep a professional relationship here. I am also well aware that you are a busy person, why don't we get this over with?" I said rushing to get the contract. 

"Oh no, don't worry." He retorted while reaching for his phone.

"Hello? Secretary Anna? Please cancel there rest of my appointments today." Without waiting for a reply he immediately hanged up.

"Why don't we take this chance to grab some coffee or something?" he asked.

"I'm sorry Mr Kim, but I have my on appointments as well, and I need to go immediately." I said standing up.

"Why? To see Joohyuk?" He asked me.

I froze. Suddenly, memories about me and Joohyuk flashed through my eyes, times when I grieved and shared happiness with him appeared. Rage. Rage built inside me. Times when I tried to hide Joohyuk from everyone I know. He doesn't deserve to know Joohyuk. What if, what if he wants to take him away from me?

I know, I'm selfish, because I think I can't live without him. He is my life now.

I looked at him with fury in my eyes.

"What do you know about him? I asked while clenching my teeth.

"Why, it seems that every time we meet, you always need to go to him?" I don't know, but I never expected Minseok was this rude.

"WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT HIM?" I already feel the tears in my eyes. I wiped them vigorously, and was about to head to the door to find Joohyuk.

The door burst to reveal Joohyuk wearing his school uniform waving a test paper on his hand.

"EOMMA!!!"
