You know I want you

A lady who is in her early 40s made her way towards the meeting room where her master is waiting.

"Sir, may I come in?" The lady asked and her master gestured her to inside.

She placed the tray which holds a glass of juice on the mini table infront of the powerful man and turned around to leave when the man called.

"Mrs. Sim!"

It was not aggressively called but the voice held so much authority that latter stop immediately and turned around to face the man slightly shivering thinking that she had done something wrong to upset the man.

"Sir.."

"How many years have you been working for us?"

"20 years, sir."

"Good... I heard you have a son. How is his education?"

"He is excellent. Even though I'm unable to get him to tutions, he always gets the highest marks from the whole school." The lady said proudly.

"How old is he?"

"17 this year.."

"Considering that you have worked us for so long. I would like to give a chance to your son to study in my school."

"Oh.. Mr.Lee thank you so much for this opportunity." The lady said bowing 90 degrees down thanking him over and over.

"But... you know there is value for everything, right? So, how about your son working for me? 

I'm sure he is talented enough to manage his work and study." The man asked.

At the mention of working the ladies smile dropped. She never wanted her son to go through the same torture she has been through. It was not a surprise that working as a servant is hard. Having to get scolded for no reason,he doesn't want that happen to her son.

"There's not much to do. I need a male servant to look after the dog my daughter got on her birthday. She is allergy to them."

He noticed the silence of the women.

"I will give some time to think. Remember he will get to study in a prestigious school."

The women bowed and left the room in a hurry. She made her way to the small room inside the basement where all the rooms of maids were located.

When she opened her door a cockroach passed the door making the women flinch. She sighed going inside the room. It was nothing new for her. Even though she cleaned the place every morning there will be some insects in her room.

She picked up her small old phone which is on the verge of dying. Dialing her son's landline number she waited for sometime for her son to answer her call sitting on her bed.

"Hello mom.." The boy answered the call.

"Son..." The women broke into small sobs upon hearing her son's voice.

"Mom.. Are you okay?" The boy asked sounding worried.

"Please Jaehyun.. Please reject the offer I'm asking you. Say you can't do it. I don't want others to consider you as a low servant."
