THE RED CACTUS

The sunrise touches his eyes through the window; he wakes up.

The young man next door falls asleep, sitting in the ground. His legs numb, as he sat for hours, he couldn't get up.

He felt little pain in the feet. He kicks his leg and tries to get up. He stood up.

He looked at his finger, it's burned, and the pain was there. He took his bath towel and went to shower.

He took paste in his brush and started to brush his teeth, looking at the mirror; he cleaned his face, and he felt fresh.

He begins to shower; the water falls from his hair to his body; the white body looks hot.

He comes out after his shower wearing the bath towel. And the water from the wet hair makes his hair down, and he looks cute.

He dries up the hair and puts some gel on it and combs his hair straight; he looks damn hot with that taper fade hairstyle.

He opened the drawer and took a white shirt, a black suit, and pants. After wearing the dress, he looked at the mirror; he looked like a professional businessman with a handsome face.

He wears his sunglass; and starts his black BMW.

The little bird's chatter makes her happy; she wakes up smiling; it's a new day with a bright sun. She pushes her curtain; the sunlight spread in her room through the glass window. Aira felt all positive energy. It's like she is going to start a new beginning.

She changed her dress to a running suit and then went for a morning walk, and two bodyguards went with her.

She doesn't like that, so she said to them, 'I want to be alone; please let me alone, and go back.' But they didn't obey, because Samira instructed them to follow her.

She continues her walk in the thought of how to escape from them. Finally, she came up with an idea, and she went back home and went to her room. From the balcony, she checked if the guards were gone or not. She saw they were going.

She jumped from the window and silently walked, and without catching their eye, she jumped from the wall. She knows how to jump from the wall without getting hurt because she gets a black belt in martial art.

She walked without anyone's disturbance; she enjoys the morning views, as its lots changed in one year.

She came back after a long walk and a short session of exercising, and it helped her body warm up in the chilly season. Samira is standing in the front door worrying, and when she sees Aira is coming, she starts to scold her.

Aira kissed Samira on the cheeks and said good morning mom, and ran to her room. She seems very happy.

As she entered her room, she saw a paper bag was there; she looked at it. It is a red cactus. She took it from the paper bag; there is a note in it, happy New Year, my baby. It was the New Year gift that Aira's Mom prepared for her. She said looking at the cactus, love you mom and she put it on her table.

She settled on a pushchair near the ceiling-to-floor window; the city looked magnificent from there. She took sips from her cup of coffee, which Lilly had just delivered to her room.

She took the Diary and started to write.

Lar, I feel very happy today. It feels like fresh air; I went for a long walk; I loved it. When you come, let's go for a walk together in the morning. Lar, please come fast, don't make me wait anymore.

The Black BMW reached the Layla Entrepreneur Co.Ltd, the number one software company in Seoul. The staff was waiting to greet the new CEO of the company. As the BMW reaches, everyone looks at it, the young man next door wends out from the car.

He walks, his every step with power and a charming look.

He looks dazzling; the lady staffs blush after seeing him. They murmured each other, how handsome he is.

"Look at him!

Our new CEO is so handsome, so hot.

Look at his eyes; he is so cool."

The manager introduced everyone to him. The staff all greet him. After the welcome, he went inside to his cabin.

The ladies staff discussed their new CEO, they said they were glad to have such a handsome CEO, he is very cute and handsome.

Suddenly someone said, don't blind in that good looking face, he is the most arrogant boss in the world, he doesn't have a heart, and he will fire anyone any time without mercy.

Yesterday his secretary tried to suicide; he fired her without reason. It's his ninth secretary; he is the arrogant boss. Our dead days are coming, so girls get to work now. Otherwise, the handsome dragon will fire you. Everyone laughed.

The young man next door looked around at his cabin and went near the window; he could see the competitor company from there. He shot the company with his arm and said goodbye.

*Ring* *Ring*

His phone bells, he picked up.

'Good morning, my CEO.'

'Good morning, director Layla,' the young man next door replied.

'Awww, my son, Mom misses you,' Layla said.

'Miss you too, Mom,' the young man next door said.

'Did you like the cabin; I especially decorated it for you, and there is a gift for you, check it now, and tell me how it is,' Layla said

The young man next door saw a paper bag on his table; he took it and checked what was inside.

'Red Cactus, why is that,' the young man next door asked.

'It's not a simple Cactus. It's the unique one in the world; this cactus represents the resilient fighters and motherly love. It's a gift from both director and Mom,' Layla said.

'Mom, you're so thoughtful, I love it lots,' the young man next door said.

'I know, whose mom is I'm, my son is so thoughtful; so should his Mom be a little bit thoughtful. When you miss me, look at the Cactus, I'm there with you; don't give up, my son,' Layla said.

'I won't disappoint you, Mom,' the young man next door said.

'I'm hanging up, the meeting is about to start; I will call you when the meeting is over, and then you have to tell me how your first day was. Love you, son.' Layla said and hung the phone without hearing his reply.

He reads the card attached to the cactus.

"The cactus represents the resilient fighters who do not give up in the tough situation, and gifting cactus is a way of telling someone that you care for them as it represents warmth, protection, and motherly love."

He looked at the cactus and said, 'Mom, I love you lots, I won't disappoint you; I will fight Mom, I will give you the happiness you lost, I will take revenge for you, Mom.'
