Chapter Forty-Two

When Emma and Suho woke up, the girl already knew her parents wouldn't be home by then. Both had already gone to work, her mother always went early for working in a hospital and her father went in early but left in the morning with her mother to take her to the hospital. The two of them hurried up to get dressed and have breakfast, even though they were always teasing each other and didn't let go for a while. The couple finally left home and headed to Emma's father's place of work. 

The man owned a car dealership, he was well known in the city but nowadays sales were a little low. As soon as the youngsters spotted the car dealership, Emma went in first. The girl looked around not seeing her father; she walked towards a man who already seemed to be in his thirties, in a suit and tie. The girl greeted you and introduced herself as Oskar Andersen's daughter, the man quickly led the girl to her father's office and she looked back calling Suho who stood at the entrance a bit nervous. She knocked until she heard her father's voice giving her permission to enter, she opened the door and smiled.  

"Hey dad, are you busy right now?" The girl asks walking into the office and going around the desk to give her father a kiss on the face.

"Hi sweetheart." He smiles. "Not at all, everything has been very quiet lately."

"So you could interview Suho now." She says going back to the door with a smile. He nods.

"Of course, send him in."

The girl left the room and called Suho, before he came in she gave him a little kiss on the lips and wished him good luck. The boy sighed deeply and went inside. Job interviews were already stressful, but a job interview with his girlfriend's father was even more stressful. Suho closed the door behind his back and stretched out his hand to give Emma's father a handshake. The man got up slightly from his chair in return and sat down again and gave Suho permission to sit in one of the chairs in front of him, and he did so.  

Oskar took a notebook out of one of his desk drawers and started with some basic and usual questions in a job interview. Suho had to talk a little, tell him his defects and qualities, how he reacts to criticism, if he ever had problems, what salary he considered fair among other questions. Emma's father was pointing out what he thought was most relevant, he tried his best to make the boy comfortable and less stressed. The interview was almost over.

"How do you work under pressure?" Oskar asks banging his pen on the paper while waiting for an answer.

"As a bartender, I have to deal with a lot of situations that aren't very easy to deal with." Suho replies. "I think I've been dealing pretty well." He was still quite nervous, shaking his leg constantly and biting his lower lip from time to time.

"And why did you leave your old job?" 

"Because I wanted to make things work with my girlfriend." Suho replies sincerely. "It's hard when you're away from each other, one of us had to make the sacrifice to leave everything behind and start all over again. I couldn't ask her to do it, so I did. That's why I'm here now."

"Well, I don't have anything else to ask." Oskar says leaning against is chair. "I can tell you now that I really liked your profile, and I'm not saying this because my daughter asked me to do this interview. If you didn't fit in with what I'm looking for, I wouldn't lie to you to look good in the picture."

"Thank you, sir." Suho says with a smile. 

"So, I hope you won't be late. I want you here at 9 a.m." Emma's father gets up from his chair to give another handshake again. Suho gets up and shakes Oskar's hand.

"I will. Thank you for the opportunity."

Suho bids Emma's father farewell and opens the office door watching Emma with her arms crossed watching the cars her father had in the dealership, the other employee walked with her and talked to her a bit about each car and Emma pretended to understand what he was saying to her. She turned around watching Suho leave the office and asked for permission to go to Suho. 

"How did it go?" Emma asks curious. He smiled. 

"Well... I need to be here at 9 a.m." 

"I'm so happy for you, Suho." The girl clap her hands, excited. 

"Thank you." Suho says. "None of this would've happened if it wasn't for you."

"I've had enough of being without you for months. I said we'd figure it out, you're just stubborn." She wraps her arms around Suho's body, leans her chin against the boy's chest, looking up.

"I know I am stubborn. Don't you think Kai has been telling me that since we've known each other? After I save some more money, the next goal is to get an apartment. I appreciate Kai's and Liz's help and everything they're doing for me but I also want my own place."

****

Suho and Emma left the car dealership and the boy called Kai to give him the news that he had got a job and to ask if he could sort things out at the bar since Kai was the owner of the beach bar in Koh Samui. Anneliese quickly took the phone out of Kai's hands and shouted in Suho's ear that she wanted him at home or she would pick him up by an ear. The boy laughed and obeyed the blonde's orders. 

The couple then took the opportunity to go home for lunch since they were going to be alone until five in the afternoon when Emma's father was returning home. They did something quick and simple and went to sit on the couch and eat. Placing their plates on the table, Emma leaned her head against Suho's shoulder. They both sighed with boredom, until something happened to Emma.  The girl got up from the couch and went up the stairs to her room, grabbed her laptop and went back down. She threw herself on the couch and opened the laptop.  

"What if we start looking for an apartment or something?" She asks looking at him. "Then we'll know more or less what we're looking for and how much we have to put aside." 

"What 'we' want? You really want to move in with me?" Suho highlighted the part of the sentence that pleased him most. The girl laughed.

"I don't wanna be with my parents until I'm forty and when I want to be with you I can't because my dad wants the door open." Emma says as she shrugs her shoulders. He chuckles. 

"You can be with me with your door open." Suho replies. "You just can't touch me from the hips down."

"Yeah, that's not fun." Emma rolls her eyes. "Besides, I promised you after I graduated I'd move in with you."

"Well, I can't wait to move in with you. My mornings will definitely be more interesting."
