Chapter 93 - ...name of safety (1/2)
It was a brand new week and Tale was back to her usual programming.
She was going to get through this week well, by Friday she will hand in her resignation letter informing the church that she had two more weeks to spend with them. By the fourth week she will be unemployed, free and happy. Right? She frowned at the mirror as she put in the last hair pin in her hair to hold it in place, this wasn't going to work. adjusting her glasses she turned off the lights in the bathroom to pick her bag and go about her day.
”See you later” she greeted Precious who was still in bed before running out of the house. She was already running late and this wasn't going to go down well with her boss.
”Need a ride?” Woo Jins voice startled her once she stepped outside the gate of the extate.
”Holy molly! What are you doing here?”
”Just looking around”
”Its not even seven AM”
Woo Jin looked confused
”Shouldn't you be in bed?” Tale finished.
”Oh, you meant it was too early to be here,” he realized.
”Yeah!”
”Not for me it isn't. Danger never sleeps.”
”I have to get to work on time,” Tale complained.
”Get in.” he held the door for her to get in.
”What is going on exactly?” Tale asked once they were settled in.
”Just security measures. You both might be in trouble.”
”You sound just like Precious and shouldn't you be protecting Su Yan?” she asked confused for a second.
”He's good, not to mention that if you are safe, so is he and by extension so am I,”
”OK, I don't think that's how it works but OK. Shouldn't you be protecting Precious?”
”I got a system installed.”
”So I guess its just me now isn't it?”
”Yes.”
Tale wasn't entirely convinced. She didn't feel like she needed protecting.
Everyone was all smiles including her boss and it scared her quite a bit. No one told her to enjoy it while it lasts because by noon time she was told she had to make three runs to the bank before the close of work that day.
”Here we go again” she thought. She closed up her computer and arranged a few papers she was going to get back to once she returned from the bank. Tale wrapped the money she was going to be depositing in the bank well enough before leaving her desk.
”Ire” her boss called her once she was outside the admin building
”Sir”
”When you finish up with the errands just go home..”
She wasn't sure she heard right so she came closer. ”Sir?”
”Yes go home. That's all you have to do for today.”
What was happening? Tale held her bag tightly still surprised by what the older man had just told her. ”Thank you,” was all she could manage.
This was weird, really weird.
She was only outside the gate when he pulled up and rolled down the window.
”Su Yan?”
”Hello.”
