10. Information

( Continuation )

When I got back from lunch I went directly to my office. On the table, there's a file that awaited on my presence. My secretary just put it on my desk when I'm at lunch. I sit on my chair then relax a bit. After fifteen minutes, I've decided to read the reports that my secretary put when my phone rang. I pick it up without looking who's the caller.

" Yes? "

" Boss, I've got the information you needed. Do I send it through an email boss? " the caller said. " Good job and yes, just send it in an email. "

" Got it boss. " I sigh when I hang up the phone. I will not deny that I'm not a bit excited to see it. Even my cold heart knows how to know the feeling. Only for her. Just for her.

I'm on my computer now waiting for that email. Few seconds passed and I heard my notification sound which is getting my attention. I directly open it and check and there it is, a picture of her. An image that hunts me in my sleep. An image that I can't erase in my brain. An image that my heart knows well. That image is HER.

I scan the other photo of her with some of her friends that seems so familiar. Then the last image shocked me the most. It was her with a kid. The same kid on our first meeting. Fuck! Is she taken? Does she have a boyfriend now? Is she married? Shit! Those are the questions that keeps lingering on my mind.

Am I too late?

Yeisha's POV

Today seems a very busy day. My staffs are in a hurry since morning came. We have a few tables open but they are already reserved. Glad that Nari stays at Hoon's. The latter said that he's on a one week vacation or so he can works at home. Because of that, I can help my staffs. I walk towards the counter and found Lina carrying a tray of foods and insist that I'll bring it to the customers. Our day continues and ends with me helping them.

Wednesday came and the situation of the restaurant is still the same. We are busy as hell but we are thankful. Busy days means a lot of money, good enough to buy goods for the restaurant and my staffs salary. After lunch time, my staff can now breathe a little since people became to lessen already. I walk towards my office just then when I'm about to open the door, Lina came with a tray of foods and drinks.

"Hey, Yeish " Lina greeted me with a smile.

" Hey, Lin. I'll go to the office now since there are not a lot of customers as of the moment. " I told her.

" Yeah, you can go. Thanks for helping Yeish and we'll handle the restaurant with care. " she chuckled and I laugh.

" By the way, these foods are for you. I know... we know that you haven't eaten lunch so I brought this for you. "

" Thanks Lin. So I'll bring this inside myself, okay? And ahh, don't forget all your lunch got it? " I said while Lina handling me the tray.

" Yes, boss. " she exclaimed while giving me a salute before leaving and went back to the kitchen. I shake my head before my lips forms into a smile.

I went inside with a tray, went to my desk and put the tray on it and sat on my chair. I open my computer and check my email while eating. I saw an email from my main branch. I click it open and saw that it was from my manager Shawn Young. The message says that the restaurant needs it's owner and if it's not much for me to let him handle it since he's not that busy though. Hah! The nerve of that man! I finished my lunch quickly then called Lina to come to my office. She came in a hurry but all I said was " call for a meeting in ten." With that she left. She knows that when I use my cold and serious tone it means something is up. I prefer being that way towards them when I'm all in business mood.

Ten minutes have finished and I walk towards the connecting door to the conference room. I open the door and saw that most of my staffs are here. We can't close the restaurant for just a few minutes so we left some of them to take care of the incoming customers. I sit on the head of the long table and greet them.

" Good afternoon. " I said in my neutral voice and I heard a reply from them instantly. " We are gathered here in rush because I need you to know what is going on in this family of ours. As you all know, this restaurant here is not the main branch. The main branch needs my attention because of some jackass that thinks he can amuse me. I do not tolerate this respect and stupidity. Be good and I'm good. Work hard and I Will repay your hard work." When I said those, I heard some gasps from them. " I need to go there and work in my main office. They need me. My restaurant needs me and I want to make sure that my hard work will not go in vain. " I stop and look at them.

" Who will lead us here, Ms. Ly? " one of my staff asks.

" Ms. Lina will be there for you. You can report everything to her and she will report it to me or she can go to my office in the main branch. "

" But we will miss you here, Ms. Ly. " Lina said this time but you can notice the worryness in her voice.

" Everything will be okay. You can call me or you can visit me anytime. So that's all for today. You can now resume to your respective work. " With that, I dismissed them and went out of the room.

I glance at my watch and it says forty-five minutes past two or it's quarter to three. I went to my office and cleared my desk. I need to figure out everything so it's better for me to go home and pick Nari up. I went to the counter area and so Lina then tell her that I'm going home early. In a few minutes, I'm out and inside the elevator. I press B1 that leads to the parking area since I ask someone to park my car in there. Elevator stops and I heard a ' ding ' then went out of it walking towards my car. I fished out my keys in my bag starting it then drove off.
