"____, can you get me coffee?" Mr park asked.

"Yes sir, right away" i hurriedly left my desk and made him instant coffee.

I went to his desk with a cup of coffee in hand and bowed to be polite. He raged, glaring at me.

"Dont you know, i only drink brewed coffee?!" He shouted.

"Im sorry sir, i will get--" i couldnt finish my words.

He threw the cup on my working dress, by reflect i looked down. His other assistant came as he asked for coffee and left.

"____, dont come to work tomorrow, youre fired!!" He shouted.

"Im sorry sir" i bowed before leaving his room.

I went to my desk and started cleaning my things, placing it in a box. I left my company card on the table before leaving, just in case.

Yep, i am so doomed. This is like the third time im fired this month. I just started working here last week, which quite long. I got fired in 3 days on my first job, and 2 days in my second.

I stopped by in a convenient store to buy instant noodle. My life is awful these days, its so hard to find a job. Now im throwing money, buying myself 5 instant noodles.

"Miss, you forgot your change" the cashier reminded me.

"Oh right, thank you" i bowed and got my change.

I walked to the bus stop with a blank stare. Carrying my things like this does make me look miserable.

I walked slowly, trying to enjoy the wind. Just then felt a hard pull on my bag, making my things fall. Thats when i realised, i just got pickpocketed.

"Hey!! Stop there, hey!" I called for the guy but he kept running.

I chased him for a few steps and slipped on my 3 cm heels. I know its not that high, but im just too tired to even walk straight.

"Hey, hey!" I saw a guy ran after the pickpocket while shouting.

"I hope he got my bag back," i mumbled, tho i only got little money in it.

I went back to my things and started cleaning. I dropped my old laptop, which i used since i was in college, and a photo frame of me and my friends.

Just as i was picking up my old self-healing book, a bag was dangling in fromt of my face. I mean more like my bag, the one i got from my ex boyfriend as a present.

"Miss, i got your bag," he smiled widely.

I blinked a few time, "oh, thank you very much" i stood up and bowed.

"Its no big deal," he squat and help me clean my things.

"You dont have to-" i tried to stop him.

He just smiled and continued picking up my things. My 3 years old pencil case, my dirty old scarf and also my little diary-wait, what?! He got my diary and now he is reading it?! This is so embarrassing.

"Im sorry-" i tried to take it away.

"Sorry, i didnt mean to. Its just so cute" he said.

"Its okay," i smiled bitterly, "i should get going. Thank you for the help" i bowed. And lets not meet again, i added in my head.

"Let me help you bring this" he snatched the box from my hands.

"Eh?" I looked at him.

"Just think of this as my apology, for reading the diary" he walked in front of me.

We stopped at a nearby bus stop, more like he did. I followed and sat beside the brown haired guy.

"Next time dont be careless," he suddenly said.

"Sorry?" I turned to face him.

"I want you to be careful next time, because i cant be with you all the time" he repeated his words.

"Uh, okay" i nod my head, though i dont quite understand.

"The bus is here," he pointed, "i will see you around, ____ ssi" he slipped something on my hand before leaving.

"Oh! How did you," i mumbled. How did he know my name?

I let the bus drive pass as i opened my hand. Its a letter, and a small bandage pack.

Use the bandage to cover your scratch, ____ ssi. And keep it for next time. Cuz you might need it when you fall for me..
-x

I read the letter again, and checked my knees. How did he know my knees got scraped? This guy is strange.

I put on a bandage on my knee and saw his writting "dont get hurt". I looked around to check if he was still there, but he isnt.

Guess i'll see you again, mr x.
