YN was standing infront of her boss with her head down. And her boss was boring holes in her head.
In an irritated tone, he asked her "Care to explain, why are you again late?"
"Amm sir my brother fell down from the stairs, he is so careless, we even have to call a doctor, that's why I got a little late", she replied without any hesitancy.
He shook his head amazed by her blunt lie.
It's already been 6 months, since she has joined the organisation, and everyone in the company knows how clumsy she is. One day he asked her to bring a cup of coffee. But, after that day, he didn't even dare to even look at any beverages. Because this clumsy girl poured that whole super hot coffee on his lap. He shivered even thinking about that.

"Look YN, you don't have to lie, rather you have to be punctual and to be more careful, it would help you in the future, I am telling you this not as a your boss, but rather as your guardian, your father is a good friend of mine, that's why I am not very strict towards you, but that doesn't mean I will appreciate your tardiness, I hope I make myself clear"
"Yes sir"
"Good, now I have to tell you a news"
"What is it sir??"
"So first of all director has decided to promote all the interns to a regular employee from day after tomorrow"
"Oh my God, this soon, thank you thank you sir, you are amazing", she squealed and started jumping like a kid. After blabbering God knows what, she realised where she is standing. She stood straight and apologized. Whereas, her boss already knew such a reaction from her. He just chuckled at her childeshness.
"Ok ok, but that is not what you are here for"
Now he is serious.
"Then what is it sir??" Confusion lacing through her voice.
"Actually our company is collaborating with a new IT MNC which is from London, and for that, I am sending some of my good employees there for a duration of 1 year, and since, you have lived in London, also you are good in your field plus you are young, I have also recommended for you to accompany others, it would be good for your career, although I am not pressurizing you, you can take your time and tell me your decision till Friday evening. So you have 4 days to think about this offer, and hope it will be positive"

YN pov-

Shocked would an under statement. I don't even know what I am feeling right now. He literally dropped a bomb on me. Although I am happy to go back to London, it's been years since I met my old friends there. But leaving my family and friends for 1 year will be difficult, especially after the mental excursion I suffered from the past 5 years.
Maybe I should tell this news to mom and dad. See what there thoughts are.

At night
Dinner-

"Amm I have to tell you guys something"
"Oh no, did you again poured coffee on his lap??"
"Ahh no dad"
"Did you again broke the printer??"
"No mom"
"Did you again fell from your seat??"
"No kookie"
"Did you again slept in the meeting"
"Ahhhh shut up you guys, and I have slept only once because it felt like that guy was literally singing lullaby"
"Hahaha very funny, sleepyhead"
"Shut up"
"I have to tell you guys something very important, don't disturb me"

Kookie again opened his mouth, but I glared and pointed the fork towards him.
He quickly zip up his mouth.
Huff finally...
Then I told them about my London trip.
And honestly it was not the reaction, I was expecting. They all look like they already knew. Wait.
Damn you boss. He already told this to my dad. And I am the last one to know about this. 😳
Wow
"So I am assuming you guys already knew"
"Ya Johnson called this morning to tell me about this"
"And you didn't even care to tell me dad"
"But he already told you na"
"Ahhh"
"It's a 1 year trip, for your all kind information"
"WHAT 1 YEAR??", mom shouted like her favourite actor died. Oh God.
"Wait, he didn't told me that"
"1 year is too much, how will she live alone there for 1 damn year", kookie said in a tensed voice.
Even though kookie and I fight like animals, he loves me alot.
"Ya you are right, just cancel it"
"I haven't said yes yet, but I wanna go"
"But-
"Mom I want to go out from this place for sometime, wanna meet my friends there, wanna hangout, I don't kn-ow b-ut I ju-st need some different atmosphere, I guess"
They kept quiet and listened to my words and then finally dad said.
"Ok, if you want to go, we will not stop you, it will also be good for your mental health, but just remember one thing whenever you feel empty or alone, your family is there, OK"
"my baby whenever you feel you can't fight your inner demeanour, we are here to protect you, your mother, father and brother is always there ok my child"
"Yes, little sister, whenever you feel you don't wanna stay there, remember I am just one call away"
I didn't even realised I have tears rolling down from both of my eyes. If I have them, I don't need anyone else.
I immediately hugged dad, and mom and Kookie hugged us sidewise.
We stayed like like for almost 10 mins. I am feeling good and even excited now. But I have to tell my friends also. They all will be sad.
But my heart is saying that this trip will be the beginning of a new journey and phase of my life...

After 1 week-

Here, I am stuffing my clothes and essentials in my suitcases. But these idiots, whom I call my friends are irritating the hell out of me.
I mean seriously I am not permanently shifting there, they have packed almost 15 bags. Oh God. Bang my head somewhere. (Yah bang it on the wall, replied my subconscious, hahaha thanks)
Not only them even my mother is overdramatic right now. There is still 2 days left since my departure. But they... ufff

Intitialy, they didn't want me to go leaving them. But after much convincing, they all agreed. Though I got a full 2 hr lecture about how I should take care of myself, to eat my food on time, and if I got into trouble, I have to contact them immediately. I literally got emotional listening to their concerns. Thought the person I wanted to care about me the most, never even dared to look back. I still sometimes use to think why he did what he did. He didn't even tried contacting his friends, with whom he shared his childhood also, especially Jimin, he was also heartbroken. The funny loving guy got lost somewhere ever since he left. There are so many why?? But no answer, because the person is itself not willing to come out of his shell and tell us his problems. My heart is still not ready to accept he left like we meant nothing. There has to be a very big reason. And somewhere I know, he would also be restless.

If a person hurt someone intentionally, then the person who did that suffers the most. YN was not the only one drowning in her sorrows because there is also someone on the other part of the world, who has lost his smile. Because the reason of his genuine smile is far away from him. Whom he could only hold in his dreams, because in that he knows she is his and no one could take her from him.
He caressed his phone screen and smiled sadly.
"Sorry, MY LOVE"
