"Just walk off, Just do it! What are you so scared of Eunbyol..." I thought to myself staring down at the raging sea below me. I have nothing to live for, there's nobody here to stop me and I want to leave this pitiful world.. but whats stopping me from walking off. If I walk off into the sea and kill myself the pain would stop.. and that's all I want right now, NO that's all I need right now, for this pain to stop harassing me.
His face just keeps replaying in my brain like a broken stereo... My newly ex boyfriends ugly face kept replaying in my brain. All I want to do is have my revenge, if i'm going down his going down with me.
Drops after drops I could see and hear the rain coming and soon I was engulfed in the rain... "How did my life come to this, WHAT HAVE I DONE WRONG?" tears finally sprout from my eyes. I stared at myself, shoes less, bloody feet, soaking wet crying in the rain. How pathetic...
FLASH BACK
I woke up like normal, I was extra excited to go to work today as they where picking out new employees. I got dressed and ready for work like usual I wore a white blouse and black knee length tight skirt, but I was running late so I had to skip breakfast and rush to work but before I left I kissed my sleeping boyfriend. Seeing my boyfriend sleeping so peacefully calmed my creeping anxiety of being late.
I was at the front of the office running in heels which wasn't the brightest idea, then with a loud thud, suddenly I found myself on the ground. I was shocked and stunned, I couldn't move an inch then I saw the person who I collided with and I couldn't stop staring at him, his face was so well proportioned and to be honest very good looking... he was wearing an all black suit with a white shirt.
I snapped out of my staring daze when I saw him getting up and walking towards me.
"Are you okay?" worry was evident in his voice, then he proceeded to stick his hand out to help me stand up.
I couldn't say anything I was just plainly staring, "PLEASE LET TIME STOP RIGHT NOW" I thought while my heart proceeded to pump frantically. I took the guys hands and I noticed he had a name tag hanging from his neck. I sneaked a peak and saw his name was 'Kang Daniel".
"I'm alright, i'm as tough as they come" I say trying to awkwardly let go of his hands, isn't it normal to let go of their hands after you help someone up...
I tried averting his gaze and then my eye caught my watch. "I'M LATE" I yell and start running again. I realised I had zero manners and ran back to the guy and bowed and appologised and ran again. When I bowed I sneaked another peak at his name tag and it looked like he worked near by at another companies office.
I ran into the office and appologised for being late I saw the disappointment written all over his face.
"Your late, this isn't like you...." My boss said while obnoxiously tapping the table. I went out and greeted my manager whom was showing around the new employees.
"Oh Eunbyol you're here!" My manager greeted.
"Now there's a shortage of space in the office and we need to make room for the new employees" the manager announced looking at me.
"Eunbyol clear out your desk so the new employees can use it" I was so stunned. Why me? What do I do then? I wanted to bombard my manager with so many questions. "So where am I going to do my work?" I asked confused
"I guess you didn't get what I mean by 'Clear out your desk'... Your fired, you're no longer with us" He uttered without a smudge of emotion.
I had no choice but to clear out my desk and leave. I grabbed a large brown box and started to pack my things, tears rolled down my face as I had many memories with this office like when I got my first paycheck and spent it all on presents for my family and dinner with the family, and the people.
