"Mister boss, can I not wear this uniform anymore? Can I just wear the guard's uniform? The color blue one."
Mister boss sighed. "Hmm, fine. I'll let you wear anything you want since it's your Birthday. But still, you need to work for me."
Ughh, finally!
"So... Am I gonna work here just because you let me stay in this mansion or is it because of my father?" I asked.
"Both."
Hahhhh... Now I owe him even more! Where's my father anyway?! I hope they catch him.
"Anyways, how are you gonna celebrate your own Birthday, kid?" Said Mister boss.
"Why are you calling me a kid? I'm not even a minor anymore." Seriously, why does he think he's 20 years older than me?
"What should I call you then?" He asked.
I looked away and was fidgeting my hands, "Well, you can just call me Hyeon," I lowered my voice.
"I can't hear you, speak louder, kid."
"I said, call me Hyeon, not a kid..." I spoke a little too loud and apologized "...Sorry."
"Well then, Hyeon, what are you gonna do tomorrow?" Mister boss questioned.
"Y-You mean... My Birthday? I don't know... Granny said I should day off."
Why is he asking me this? Why did he even know that it's my Birthday today?
Mister boss was so bothered and scratched the back of his head, "Are you serious? Your not gonna do anything on your Birthday?" Then, he sighed, "Hahhh... How about I'm gonna take you out tonight and we'll have some dinner."
"H-Huh?! But you said it was dangerous outside."
"Do you plan not to outside for the rest of your life? Plus, your safe when you're with me." He looked at me with his fearsome eyes that everybody are still scared of except for me... Well... I can't just say that I was not scared of him anymore, I think I just got used to it... I think...
Is it only the two of us? Where will he take me? Will I survive after the day of Birthday? I suddenly became stressed right now!
"...O-Okay," I approved.
"Good, It should be already at the living room at 6:30"
"Yes, Mister boss. Thank you."
He then walked away and threw his cigarette.
Should I be happy? I think it's much better not to go in the restaurant tonight, I mean, He invites me for a dinner in this mansion most of the time, and now he's taking me to the restaurant tonight. But... I can't just decline his offer...
I went to the maids room and told granny what the hell happened. Then, I slept eventually.
"Honey, wake up before the food gets cold," granny woke me up.
I was feeling great and enthusiastic until I remembered what Mister boss said at midnight. I sighed.
Granny heard that I sighed and asked, "Are you worried about tonight?"
"Yes, I'm worried that I might die out of awkwardness, I might die out of embarrassment, or I might literally die from the criminals who wants money from me even though I don't have a single penny around me."
"There's no need for you to get embarrassed. Just be comfortable around him, you'll get used to it. Don Hyun has enough soldiers to protect you both." granny said.
How do I get comfortable when my heart irrationally beats when I'm around him? It's not like I'm still scared of him, it's just I'm getting flustered. His confidence and dominance makes him look like his looking down on me, and it makes me feel nervous and panicked, as if something is flattering inside me. What could it be?
After eating, I was having the time of my life, getting relaxed and exploring the mansion. Mister boss wasn't in the mansion 'cause he had an appointment until 6:30 pm. Then, it suddenly turned 6 o'clock.
Ah! I gotta go back to the maids room and change.
I wore my best clothes, brought my phone with me and went to the living room to wait for Mister boss. I was sitting nervously and was rethinking about my whole life. I heard the guards opening the big ass front door and saw Mister boss.
Mister boss just stared at me. "What are you wearing?" Mister boss asked.
"Uhm, what do you mean?"
Mister boss sighed and said, "Let's just go."
I entered his limousine car. It was so long and black colored. "Whoaa! This car is looking real expensive! And it's so shiny! No wonder why my father liked to steal your money."
Mister boss glared at me
I shut my mouth up.
Was that offensive? Ah! He's still glaring at me, please stop. Why is the seat of this car facing each other.
I began to sweat. I was tapping my fingers as if I was drumming to a song. Then, I started whistling and looked away. I wanted to get away with his glares, so I asked, "Where are we going, Mister boss?"
"Where are we heading, Don Hyun?" The driver also asked.
"Take us to the Haberdashery," he said.
Pheww... He finally stopped glaring... Wait... WHAT?! Did he just say Haberdashery? Is it because of what I'm wearing?
"Uhm, Mister boss, didn't you say we're just going to eat?"
"Look at yourself first," said Mister boss.
Is he gonna buy me a suit?
"We have arrived now, Don Hyun," the driver said.
We got out of the car and went inside the store.
"Hi, sir. Good evening. How can I help you?" The employee said.
"We need him a suit," Mister boss moved away to let the employee see me since I was completely hidden behind Mister boss huge body.
I was feeling kinda agitated and I didn't know why.
Uhh! Why am I nervous right now? It's just a suit!
"Oh, I didn't see you there, sir. I'm just going to measure you for your sizes real quick, sir."
While the employee measured my body, I stood still and glanced at Mister boss to see what he was doing, but he was just staring at me.
This is making me feel uncomfortable.
The employee stopped measuring, and Mister boss asked, "Are you done?"
"Ah, yes, sir," the employee answered.
"Then can we get that one?" Mister boss proceeded to point out on what he wanted me to wear.
Then, I immensely blushed, "H-HUH?! A PINK SUIT?!"
