Happy Tears

January,2012

" One set of fried chicken Haru yaa!", said a man by the window.

" Ye', incoming ahjussi!" said the girl with a wide smile on her face.

Honey Chiken Lee, the busiest chicken restaurant at Gukjegeumyung street. Every day is a war, hundreds of customer always come to enjoy the chicken. The price is affordable which is parallel with the deliciousness offered by the restaurant.

"Your chicken is here, please enjoy"

"Thank you."

The girl stretches her body as the clock ticking almost 9 o'clock showing the closing time is coming. Then, she starts to clean all the mess on the tables and put all the dishes to the kitchen. Aside from taking orders and serving the food to customers, she also responsible to wash the dishes since the others are involved with the cooking process. Tiredness can be seen from the small figure of this girl but still trying to finish all the task.

10 o'clock

"Thank you for the hard work guys!"

-"Same goes to you, boss", said all the workers.

"I have banked in all your salary, just make sure you don't spend it like it'is your last day to live. Ha Ru wait here for a bit, kay?

-"Wohoooo!! Thank you,boss!!!"

Haru goes to her boss.

He hands out an envelope to Haru and says

" Here is your salary. Can just you create a bank account so that it will make it easier for both of us? It's not that hard mate. I can just do it for you, but you know the complex I have right? Those bank employees just went crazy as soon as my first foot entered the bank because of my so Hyun Bin' face. Even me myself cannot get enough with it."

-"Too busy boss, got no time to deal with that hardass thing to do", she said with rolling eyes.

"What's with that face, are you also charmed by my beauty?" he says while watching his reflection.

-"Oh gosh, saying that while posing in front of a mirror is the worst thing ever. Narcissism detected", Haru mutters by herself.

"Forget about that, there is something else I want to talk about. For all these past two years, you gave a big contribution to my dearest chicken restaurant. So, I decide to give you a better position with better salary. How do ya think?"

She shocked. Tears form at the lower eyelid and at some point, it flows on her white pale face. The boss shocked witnessing the tears of a maiden that he freezes, not knowing how to deal with the sudden crying.

After a while, he asks

" Are you okay? Are you touched by my elegance ha ha ha", he tries to lift up the mood.

- "It's ju...just that hmmmm I huhrhf MMMMMMM WAAARGHHHHHHH", crying like a little child.

"I'm just kidding kay, stop crying girllll and go back home already!"

-"I'm just too hmm mmmm just to happy. THANK YOU SO MUCHHH!",said Haru while walks away heading home.
