GO AND CHASE YOUR MAN

"Are you telling me that this is your resignation letter?"

Suyin nodded while keeping her eyes away from her boss. It is an abrupt decision for her but she thinks it is the most suited plan as of the moment. Here in Japan, she indeed lived a life that is beyond her father's control. Though she isn't really from her father's shadow, at least she became the person she always dreamed of becoming.

"My resignation letter has been placed here in your desk for more than three days now. You are not paying attention to it, so I am here to remind you about it."

"Don't talk to me that way."

"I may sound rude but I really need to go back to China."

"For?"

"To chase a man."

"Is chasing a man even more worth it than your career?"

"But raising a child with its father beside me is even more worth it than anything."

"Raising a child?"

Her boss got so confused with what she said. Raising a child? He looked thoroughly starting from Suyin's head up to her toe. "She doesn't look like she's pregnant. And she never dated anyone while she's working with their company.", her boss wondered.

"Raising a child? Does that mean..."

"I clearly stated the reason in my resignation letter. I am pregnant Sir."

"So the father is..."

"The father is from China but he doesn't know anything and he has to."

Suyin was about to spill out even her child's father's name. Fortunately, she was able to control her mouth and she was able to zip it before saying a word that she'll regret afterwards. And she isn't really sure about what the father's reaction will be. However, she is still hoping that he will accept the fruit of their love making.

"I admit, I grew up having no one beside me but my mother. My mother ran away from my dad after knowing she is pregnant. That was because mom found out that my real father is married. She raised me alone and I wasn't given any chance to know who my father is."

Suyin's boss confessed. He was moved with Suyin's initiative to let the father of her child know about his offspring. Mothers may have their own ways of solving things out but whatever their decision is, you can see that they would put enormous level of love and affection in their craft.

"Is he a Chinese?"

"He is and he is running all his activities there. He just visits me some times."

She lowered her head with the fact that the father of the child she is bearing rarely visits her. And once he does, he will for sure seize the opportunity to use Suyin for his own satisfaction. At first, Suyin thought that it is not good to let him know that she is pregnant but she also knows she can't raise the child alone. She is just a normal citizen of Japan who gets her money from working even late at night.

"Does that mean you'll stay there permanently? No chance of coming back here?"

Though Suyin isn't really certain of what will be the father's reaction, she nodded and awed her lips. She has a lot of reasons to stay there than just because of the baby.

"Suyin, go and chase your man."

Her heart thumped for joy after she her boss said that. Suyin's decision is fixed. She needs to go home and make a life in China.

"I wonder how Chaoxiang will react once he find out that I am coming home. I wonder what is he doing right now."
