Chapter 154 - Anxious ?h?st [2] (1/2)

A strange premonition bugged Moon Jiwoo at that moment, and no matter how much she tried, she was unable to drive away that anxious feeling within her.

It was starting to unnerve her at this point, and concentrating at her work was getting difficult due to this.

A groan escaped from her mouth as she tied the bouquet of flower. The sinking feeling inside her ċhėst was increasing as time passed by, and at this point, she was confident that something was about to happen.

As for what that thing was, Moon Jiwoo wasn't that sure about it. Nonetheless, she prayed that nothing grand or dramatic would be happening.

She preferred her life was now the best, and the pace was perfect for her. Having it change was one of those things that frightened her greatly, and she wanted to prevent that from happening at any cost.

A wince escaped from her mouth, and Moon Jiwoo realized that she had cut her finger by mistake. Seeing the blood flow out of it, she let out a sigh.

It seemed that her injury did not go unnoticed by the owner, and making her way over to Moon Jiwoo, the owner voiced out, ”You have been distracted a lot today.”

Moon Jiwoo instantly bowed at the lady and spoke out, ”I am sorry, Boss.”

”You have cost a lot of loss today by destroying all of those flowers. That's why, I want you to take a break for today.”

”No, Boss. I am sorry for all that I did, but I will be careful from now on.”

”I don't think that I will be able to afford anymore losses, and it's fine. Just take a break. You have worked really hard without a break for months. That's why, I don't mind. Just do whatever you want to do for today. I will be able to handle the shop on my own, and I will just be closing the shop early.”

Seeing the owner was lighthearted about it caused relief to spread through Moon Jiwoo although she did feel a little guilty. Although nothing has happened to her, she was acting this way, and this made her angry at herself.

It seemed that she hadn't yet grown out of her habit on letting her personal emotions affect her work, and this was one that thing she needed to work on greatly.

”Thank you, boss, for the little vacation. Once again, I am sorry for today. Something just happened, and I am really distracted due to that. I will make sure that I am completely fine tomorrow, and make up for all the losses.”

”It's alright. Take your time coming back. You really pushed yourself hard these days, and that's why, you deserve this. I am not in a hurry for you to come back.”

”No, I can't possibly do that. You must be really busy these days, and I can't do that. Don't worry. Nothing that big had happened to me. It's just trivial.”

”Is that so? Whatever it is, I hope that it gets resolved. You are at your best state when you're smiling brightly. With that frown on your face, you are going to scare away all the customers. That's why, only come back when you are able to smile that widely.”

Moon Jiwoo was touched by how the owner cared for her. At times, the owner did feel like a mother to her. Last time, when she was sick, the owner made sure to cook for her and send them to her apartment.

She always managed to make Moon Jiwoo feel grateful towards her, and Jiwoo hoped that there will be a day she will be able to make up to the lady.

Walking around the town, Moon Jiwoo looked at both of her sides. There was nothing around the place she was able to do. Now that she was being a miser and due to her lack of money, she wasn't able to spend on shopping.

Nonetheless, it was not as if she found this unpleasant or boring. Although the roads were busy and the place around her was quite crowdy, she did not mind walking around.
