Pay With Your Heart

Secretary Chang-Wok's action left Eun-Sun completely stunned. She kept gazing at the pack of food. The delicious aroma wafting from it was making her stomach rumble frantically, but she still refused to touch it.

She couldn't just accept anything from that brute of a boss. What if he was up to something? Or maybe he charges her for eating the food? How much would it cost?

Should she go and ask him why he decided to buy her food?

No! That was a bad idea. Memories of her close encounter flashed through her head. Mr Lee had a way of always sneaking up on her. Towering over her with his height and leaving her breathless as well as wordless.

She kept staring at the food. Secretary Chang-Wok's last words were making her uncomfortable and preventing her from throwing it away.

"Hey Eun-Sun" Hye-Jin whispered snapping Eun-Sun out of her thoughts.

"Mmm" She trlurned to face her.

"What was that? Why did Secretary Chang-Wok bring food for you? Is he courting you?" Hye-Jin asked with a teaseful smile making Eun-Sun arch her brow.

"Definitely not"

"I don't think so. Look it's even from that famous restaurant downtown. I heard it's very expensive" She told her drawing Eun-Sun's attention to the bag once more. She didn't know that.

Hye-Jin noticed how quiet Eun-Sun has become while she stared at the pack of food. "Are you really sure he is not..."

"Hye-Jin I'm sure" She was getting irritated with all the fussing and questioning.

"Okay fine, if you're not going to eat that then you can pass it to me" Hye-Jin winked teasefully.

Eun-Sun didn't want to accept the food, but her stomach kept rumbling annoyingly. She had no choice but to answer to nature.

She was going to eat it and whatever happens after should happen.

.....Dan-Han's office....

"Did she accept it?" He asked as he signed on some documents.

"Yes sir"

"She didn't say anything?" He asked again. Dan-Han looked up at his secretary when he didn't reply.

"She said she didn't care about your mood and she refused it, but I dropped it on her desk and left" He replied honestly.

Dan-Han expected her to act that way so he wasn't surprised. As a matter of fact he was expecting her to come demanding an audience, that way he could get to her.

But he didn't know what to expect from that girl. Her actions are not so easily predictable. Sometimes she acted like an amazon princess who's about to torch the world down with the fire in her eyes while other times she would be calm and would act like a scared little kitty. She was so confusing.

"Okay" He handed the signed files to Chang-Wok.

"Did In-Ha send her anymore flowers?" He asked.

"No sir" Chang-Wok replied. Young master In-Ha? Was that why he asked him to get food? Where the two friends trying to woo the same woman. He could feel a headache coming.

"You can leave" He said dismissively.

His mind wandered back to the event that happened last night. Why didn't he feel the same thing he felt when that girl touched him. He had bit his lips to hold himself from shopping her hand off.

The feeling he got was entirely different from what he had when Eun-Sun was close by. Rather he felt repulsed by her, just the way he felt before. Eun-Sun hasn't even placed a finger on him but he could his body pinning for her touch.

What the hell's happening to him? He has been refraining himself from seeing her after that day in the elevator but he wasn't going to do that anymore.

He was going to do what his body wants and that was pursuing her. And he was going to do that with all his got, so much she wasn't going to find a way to turn him down.

*********

Hei-Ran was deeply buried with work in the office, when she received a call from the receptionist. She scowled at the buzzing intercom. She didn't want any form of distraction. Her demonic boss was going to come in here soon demanding for the reviewed files.

"Hello Miss Hei-Ran, there's someone out here to see you" The receptionist informed her, which made Hei-Ran frown in confusion. No one comes looking for her at work.

"Who?" She asked.

"Your sister-inlaw" The receptionist said as she looked at the girl in front of her who shouldn't be a bit over sixteen (16). The receptionist was surprised just as Hei-Ran was after hearing her reply. She wasn't aware that Hei-Ran was married, as a matter of fact no one at work knew.

This was huge news.

Hei-Ran frown deepened at the receptionist words. 'Sister inlaw? What sort of prank was this?' When did she get married talk more of in-laws? Did someone forget to invite her to her own wedding.

"Tell her I'll be there shortly" Hei-Ran said before disconnecting the call. She didn't have time for such antics at the moment. She had to review this documents and she had such limited time at hand, and now someone had come to disrupt her work.

"Hold on, she'll be here soon" The receptionist informed the young lady at the reception.

"Okay. Thank you" She replied with a polite smile before walking to sit at the waiting area of the lobby.

Hei-Ran angrily walked to the reception to see whoever it was that claimed to be her 'sister-inlaw'. No one should blame if she lashes out on anybody.

That stupid boss was choking her with work and pushing her to the wall. She was practically losing her mind and someone decides to play a joke on her.

Hei-Ran stopped on her tracks and clenched her hands into a fist in anger, when she saw the young lady who was sitting with a magazine in hand at the waiting area.

"You spoilt brat!" She said forcefully as she smacked her on the arm and pulled her out of the lobby.

"Sis be careful, I still haven't found a boyfriend yet so you can't leaves marks on me" Seul-Bi yelled as she struggled to pull away from Hei-Ran's grip. Hei-Ran felt like ramming her head against the wall.

"You want to have a boyfriend? Try it and let's see. I'll kill you and kill him" Hei-Ran seethed as she pulled her out to the door.

"Why are you here? And why did you introduce yourself as my sister-inlaw? And why are you dressed like this?" She asked in annoyance as she noticed how she was casually dressed and not in her uniform.

"Sis, you sure do ask alot of questions, no wonder you are still single" She muttered under her breath.

"I dare you to repeat that" Hei-Ran dared in annoyance. This little sister of hers is such a pain in the ass. She might as well kill her right here and now.

"Why are you here and not in school?" Hei-Ran asked again.

"Mother sent me" She replied as she picked her phone from her bag and scrolled through it.

"Why?" Hei-Ran asked angrily, as she wondered what was so important in Seul-Bi's phone that she was searching for, while she had interrupted her work.

"Are you seriously asking that?" Seul-Bi asked in disbelief, while Hei-Ran rolled her eyes. She had been avoiding her mother's call all week, so how could she not know why.

"If you had simply picked her call, I wouldn't be here in the first place" She said still scrolling through her phone.

"So what's so important that she sent you all the way here? And tell me why you didn't text whatever message you have there" Hei-Ran asked back frustratedly.

"Well here it is" She said handing over her phone, but suddenly withdrew it as Hei-Ran tried taking it. Hei-Ran frowned deeply.

"Mom paid me 50 bucks to read this EXTREMELY long message to you, but I know you're very busy right now, so how about giving an extra 50 so I can give you a brief summary" She said emphasizing on how 'Extremely' long it was.

Hei-Ran didn't not know whether to laugh or cry at her sister antics as she continued to stare at her mischievous face.

"Fine I'll pay" She said rolling her eyes. This girl always had a way of making money out of people.

"When?" Seul-Bi didn't want to be tricked.

"Now!" Hei-Ran snapped. Luckily she had come down with her purse and phone.

"I just love you sis" Seul-Bi chirped excitedly after receiving the money.

"Well mom says you should come home this weekend with your boyfriend or be prepared to go on some blind dates and if you refuse, she'll show up here and drag you to the civil bureau and get you married to a random stranger" Seul-Bi told her as Hei-Ran's forehead creased.

"She said that?" Hei-Ran asked angrily.

"Mmm" Seul-Bi replied nodding, as she put back her phone in her bag.

"But why will she threaten me like that? It's not right" She thundered.

"I don't know" Seul-Bi replied her shrugging her shoulders.

"You can tell her I'm not doing anything of those things" Hei-Ran was very vexed. She thought the marriage thing has died down, so what now?

"You've to pay an extra 50 bucks to deliver that" Seul-Bi said as she stretched out her hand to collect her payment. She withdrew her hand when Hei-Ran glared at her.

"But I'd advice you do as she says. Our mother can be a tiny weeny bit crazy if she means to" Seul-Bi adviced her sincerely, which made Hei-Ran glare at her even more.

She wasn't really planning for her mother's craziness. But how does she come up with a boyfriend by weekend. Especially with her crazy boss who's probably going to kill her very soon.

This was just too much.
