"What's wrong? Hey." I asked. She was about to cry.
"Is your offer still open? Can I still go and work with you in Korea? I don't care what the catch is, just let me leave this country!"
And even before I can answer, she cried her heart out
I stayed silent until she calmed down a little bit.
"What's wrong?" I asked again when she calmed down.
"Ah, it was nothing."
"Nothing? I heard everything. After crying like a baby, you'll say that its nothing?"
"Why does it concern you? I am just your online teacher?"
I gritted my teeth and ended the session. I am so pissed, but why though?
Yeah right? Why does it concern me? Why do I feel like I wanna go where she is and make sure no one's gonna hurt her?
'You're one hell of a crazy man, Baekhyun-ah' I told myself.
I grabbed my phone and dialed her number.
"You sure about this?"
"About what?"
"Working 'for' me." I said, giving emphasis to the word 'for'.
'Please say no. If you say yes, I am no longer responsible for my feelings.' I was taking to myself while waiting for her answer.
"Yes."
Dang!
"Oh well, prepare your things. You'll fly here next week."
I ended the call and lay flat on my bed. My phone ring after a minute, it was my friends whom I am meeting tonight. I totally forgot about my prior commitment because of this girl.
"Dang, Baekhyun, you've fallen into the trap."
------------------
My POV
I cried my heart out I front of the man who I almost killed last time. The circumstance that I am in is too frustrating and humiliating. I never even thought about Sir Henry beyond a father figure and a boss. But looks can really be deceiving. This is the reason why people are developing trust issues.
"What's wrong?" He asked when I calmed down a bit.
"Ah, it was nothing." I don't want to include him in my circus.
He'll be my boss so in order to maintain a professional relationship, he needs to be out of my personal life.
"Nothing? I heard everything. After crying like a baby, you'll say that its nothing?"
"Why does it concern you? I am just your online teacher?"
He never said a thing but he clenched his jaw and he looked so pissed. And without a word, he ended the videocall.
"Huh? What the hell?"
After a minute, I heard my ringtone, and Byun Baekhyun, that rude little man is calling.
"You sure about this?"
"About what?" I answered, almost pissed.
"Working 'for' me."
'As if I have a choice.' That was the answer that I wanted but I ended up by saying a straight "YES."
"Oh well, prepare your things. You'll fly here next week." I heard him sigh.
Next week? That was fast. But the faster the better. As for me, I am not leaving the country without a fight. I called my parents' lawyer and seek for legal advice. I told him that I want to sue them for dragging me in their marital issue and defaming my name. I made sure that everything will be taken care of.
