51 Kira (1/2)
It's been about 3 months since Samantha Kim has left the country and no one, not even her family knows where she is. Daniel Cho has been very irritable lately and for the past few months, the employees in Cho Corporation have been serving a Tyrant Boss.
Cho Corporation Meeting Room
The air in the room was very cold and it's not even because of the AC. All the people in the meeting room aged by a few years because of Daniel Cho's temper.
”Are you all tired of working for the company? It seems that you're all willing to get fired?!”
”How many times have I told you, this isn't going to work! I'm not paying you all just so that you can give me crap every day!!”
”Is this what you're only capable of?!”
Daniel yelled the entire time he spoke. His employees flinching every time he emphasizes a word.
”Answer me!!”, he roared once more.
”N-No Sir.” , Everyone answered in unison.
Daniel sighed heavily, ”Revise this again, this will be your last chance. I'll give you all until the end of the week. If you still don't pull this off by then, be ready to hand in your resignations.”
”Now, get out!!”
The employees stood up looking all gloomy. How does their boss have the energy to get mad all week? They felt like he has become increasingly irritable day by day. He's still so young but why does he act like he's in his menopausal stage? they all have the same thoughts in mind.
Assistant Ahn who had gotten used to his boss' mood swings ever since Ms. Kim left, he could only sigh silently.
”Ahn.”
”Yes, boss?”
”Any updates?”
Ahn already understood what his boss meant, ”No, Boss. We've searched high and low… It's very hard to find a person who doesn't want to be found.”
Daniel closed his eyes as he leaned on his chair. ”Keep searching.”
”Understood.”
Daniel stood up from his chair and left the room. He headed towards the Vice-President's office and opened the door roughly.
”Jeez! Haven't you heard of knocking?”, Liam exclaimed, shocked by his brother's sudden appearance.
”Get up, let's go to The Fortress.”
”Ugh... Again?! But it's noon!!”
”If you don't get up, I'll double your workload this month.”, Daniel said before he turned around and left.
Liam hurriedly got up and reluctantly grabbed his belongings, ”All right, All right! I'm coming! Tch, what kind of boss threatens an employee for not going out for a drink during the day? What an ass.”
”I heard you!”
Liam flinched when he heard his brother. 'I swear, his devil horns must have touched the sky by now.'

Kai tapped Samantha's shoulder, ”Got my D License yesterday. You owe me a date!”,
Samantha looked at Kai and gave him a smile, ”I never agreed on going on a date with you!”
”Tch. Still playing hard to get?”
When they received the signal, Samantha fixed her white helmet in place and gave a thumbs up. When the plane door opened, an extremely loud sound is heard but after multiple times of experiencing this, Samantha is no longer bothered by it.
Samantha started to head towards the opening but Kai stopped her. He walked ahead of her, turned around to face her and made a heart shape with his fingers, ”I love you, Kira!”, Kai screamed before he jumped out of the plane and disappeared.
The rest of the team of skydivers howled and cheered for Kai's confession.
Samantha shook her head before she followed Kai outside.
She could still remember the very first time that she skydived 3 months ago.
Back then, although Samantha was determined to experience the thrill, she got scared when she saw the edge of the door in front of her. The man in front vanished when he jumped out and Samantha's face paled by the sight of it.
