Perfect Strangers (BL)

Chapter 2 Phase

6 Years After Graduation...

Kim Soo Hyun's Point Of View

SOO HYUN: I'm doing fine thank you very much... I don't need that much rest! Cmon! I can do a lot of things in 6 month! What am I suppose to do if I'm not working?!

JOO HYUK: that is what you'll be finding out Soo Hyun. Have a life outside work! Man, please. You've been hospitalized twice in a month already! How are we suppose to chill with that knowing you're disregarding your health?

KANG JOON: Joo Hyuk's right... How are you suppose to function well at work if you keep on doing that? And how are we suppose to work properly if we constantly worry about your health? Please Soo Hyun... Listen to us. We know how hard working you are... you don't need to prove it, everyone know it! So please, just rest.

SOO HYUN: fine... I'll rest, for 6 days then I'll be back...

JOO HYUK: it's 6 months Soo Hyun not 6 days...

SOO HYUN: no! 6 months is like forever! I've got plenty of things to do... I have to follow up 5 restaurants that's on construction right now and a few manual checks in one of our resorts...

KANG JUN: leave that to us... I for one, have very light tasks on my table, I am very much free the whole 6 months since I've finished most financial documents and some internal audits.

SOO HYUN: no, I have to be sure, I need to do it myself.

KANG JUN: (gasping) are you fucking doubting MY capabilities Soo Hyun?! How dare you! FINE! if you want to die working! Then be my guest! I just want you to know I won't watch you suffer with your treatment... I quit, I'd rather be just a normal man trying to prove to you everything doesn't revolve around money! I'll give you a week to find a replaceme for me, I'll quit wether you want me to or not. Goodbye Mr. CEO

I was dumbfounded by what Kang Jun said, I was in no way doubting him! Cmon, he's a genius! Ughhh...

JOO HYUK: I've never seen him this angry before Soo Hyun... You really pulled that last string of patience in him. I hope you're happy... I think he's serious this time. Tsk, seriously is your work is more important than us? Moreover your health?

SOO HYUN: no no... Joo Hyuk, no... I'm sorry, it's just, I can't just leave you know... 6 months is too much. It's half a year of having nothing to do Joo Hyuk. You know me, I... I'm not that kind to linger around aimlessly. Time is of the essence. We are a huge company now, and we need to be alert at all times. Other will try to bring us down if we aren't assertive. We...

JOO HYUK: We? Are you sure about that? Coz I know I love the company as much as you do... But I'm not that into power grabbing or aiming for something higher than we are now. It's alright to have constant goals, but to put your health on the line? I'm sure we... By that I mean, me and Kang Joon value our life more, more than anything in this world.

SOO HYUN; but...

JOO HYUK: don't... I just want to let you know I'm not quitting like Kang Joon did... I'll be here constantly reminding you what you're doing to yourself, is fruitless and worthless. I'll be in my office if you need to talk important matters only, over phone... Be well... SIR

And with that, a loud bang on my door. I can't believe they'll fuss over this. Fuck! 6 months is fucking long for fucks sake! What am I gonna do with that 6 months?! I'll die of boredom faster! Aaaarrrrhhhhhgggg! This is frustrating!

I only need a week at most, of rest... Then I'll fully recover. Damn, tsk... what to do? Hmmm

Ahhh.. Maybe they'll brush it off tomorrow, it was a stressful day after all. I'll just make sure to eat at the right time in order for me not to pass out again... I'll just go home for now and rest a bit, I still have to finish these papers tomorrow morning.
