CHAPTER NINE(2nd EDITION)✔️
Lisa's P.O.V.
When I enter the dinning hall, both Taehyung and Sohee have already sit. They have not started eating as they are waiting for me.
"Ah! here comes aunty Lisa. As you just arrive today, I thought why don't we dine together." He gives me a warm welcome smile as soon as he sees me, instantly melting my feet and my heart. I take the second seat at the left while Sohee sits on his right. There are Korean cuisine with a chocolate dessert and a fruit salad. Its simple and I like it.
I eat the dinner in silence while Sohee continues to torture her father to feed her the dessert. Sohee accidentaly smear the dessert on the tip of her nose, making him to wipe out. I just enjoy the lovely scene before my eyes in silence.
"Thank you, Mr. Kim for the meal. I sincerely enjoyed it." I thank with a formal tone.
"I'm greatful that you like it. You must be exhausted due to the hectic day. My secretary will explain the terms and conditions tomorrow. I want you to be present in my office by 7 a.m. Good night."
"Good night Mr. Kim. And you to Sohee." I bend down to her level and stroke her cheeks.
"Good night aunt Lisa." My name sounds music to my ears from her lips. We part ways heading to our rooms. I take a hot shower after brushing my teeth. I slip on my pyjamas and off to the velvety bed, hoping for a sweet dream.
My beauty sleep comes to an end when I feel the sunlight illuminating my face. The night seems to be shorter maybe because of the cozy and the touchable bed. I had the best sleep. I grab the phone to see the time. It shows 6 am, one hour left to see him again. I sigh at the thought of him. I want to remain under the comforter but I've no choice. I jump off the bed and head to shower.
In twenty minutes, I'm ready. I wear a white top with floral prints and a matching culottes that I find in the wardrobe. I take a mental note to pick up my clothes from home. To look complete, I pair up with sneakers. I open the door to walk to the office. Yesterday, I recorded the path to the office in my brain.
I enter the office with the hope that he introduces me to Rose. She wasn't even present in dinner table yesterday. I have not noticed her since I came.
Is she sick? And why is a nanny needed for the baby? Rose should be taking care of her baby, for god's sake, she's the mother.
My mind is consumed with these thoughts. I notice no one in the office and I am ten minutes earlier. Not knowing what to do, I begin to roam around the room, examining everything with my eyes.
Then, something catches my eyes.
I walk towards the chest of drawers and cautiously take it in my hand.
It's a photo frame of Taehyung and Rose, probably taken after some months after their marriage. They look happy, contented, Rose in the arms of him. I place it in its original place. As I turn my head to walk back, I see two more frames. One is the wedding photo and other is Taehyung with Sohee. These must his best memories.
I don't see a family photo though. Interesting yet curious!
All of a sudden I hear footsteps. I am standing somewhere far from the sofa. So, I tip toed quickly to sit at the sofa. The door opens and I see Bo Gum & Taehyung coming. I stand up to greet them. They are slightly surprised to see me.
"Good Morning Mr.Kim, Mr.Park!" I wish them, bringing back from their surprises.
"Oh...Good Morning, Miss Lisa", both of them wishes me.
"You seem to like this work, Miss Lisa." Taehyung says because I came early before the appointed time.
"Very much and please just call me Lisa. I'm not used to 'Miss' kind of stuff." I am glad to know that he respects me. But, from the lips of the man and love, it doesn't fit.
"If you insist." He laughs revealing his very white teeth while hiding the eyes balls due to the pressure of the cheeks.
I love this sight.
"Well, I want to introduce my secretary, Park BoGum, who's also my best friend."
"Hi, I'm pretty sure you have known my name and please I have told this 'Miss' thing too", I chuckle while extending a hand.
"Sure, Lisa and that applies the same for me." He smiles while reaching my hand .
We sit down to begin the explanation of the terms. I listen carefully as BoGum continues to speak. Taehyung will visit his daughter before work and after work. He'll be the one who will put her to sleep. My job is to look after her during the daytime. There may be times when I have to accompany her to sleep, mostly during his business trips. He tells me about her likes and dislikes. I'm not allowed to take her out unless some bodyguards accompany us. After some half an hour explanation, we finish and head to take the breakfast while Taehyung goes to pick his child up from her room.
Two hours later, Taehyung leaves for the office. So Hee insists to show me her favourite Disney Princess Movie, Frozen. We watch in silence as I am also addicted to it.
"So, watching Frozen?" I look up to see BoGum by the door.
"Yes. You didn't go to office?"
"Actually no, I took leave."
Suddenly I remember Rose. So Hee is concentrating on the movie so I walk towards him.
"Can I ask something?" I ask in a low tone, not wanting to distract her.
"Yes." He raises his eyebrow.
"Where is Mrs.Kim? I have not seen her since I arrived." He seems to be tensed. Because of that, I become anxious to know what happened in those 3 years.
"Can we talk somewhere?"
"So Hee, Aunty'll be in a minute. Stay there, okay?"
"Okay, Aunty."
"Where is Mrs.Kim? Instead of her, a nanny is taking care of her child. It's really confusing, BoGum." Now I say loud enough. I am frustrated. He inhale deeply and those three words shocked me to the core.
"She is gone."
