Wounded: The Ordeals Of Lee Eun ha

Eun Ha? " the manager called, " Please take a menu to that table and get their request." deep down she would have wanted someone else to do it but this was the boss orders, who was she to reject. she took the menu and walked straight to the table, her heart was racing very fast, she couldn't phantom exactly why. good evening Sir, she said bowing her head politely as she offered the menu what would you like to have? they looked at the menu and pointed what they wanted, she went out from the table and brought the cocktail they had ordered, she turned back to leave when the voice of one of them stopped her in her tracks. "wait" her heart stopped for some split seconds and continued beating with difficulty. I know you, you're Mr Lee's daughter he said with and an evil grin that revealed his tobacco colored teeth. she froze as the tray she was holding dropped to the ground. "I was right, it's them" The restaurant on the ground floor was filled with people mostly the elites, some of them were tourist, others were there for a business meeting and others, conferences. the sound of the dropped tray caught the attention of most of them, making them glance at Eun Ha for some split seconds. He continued, The deadline is tomorrow evening don't forget that. Eun Ha had wanted to say something to them, perhaps, beg them but the words never left her throat. Eun Ha stood there for about two minutes, "will you get us our meal or will you just stand there?" the other muttered harshly. she knew they were evil men, above the law. falling into their trap was the most dangerous place a person could be. she resigned to begging for more time. one glance, Mu Chen could tell what was happening "X force" he whispered underneath his breath. they had quite a reputation and were feared by many. They feared no one and could illegally obtain what was theirs if necessary. He looked at the helpless young lady on the floor, he knew there was no way they'd let her go, no matter how much she begged. he didn't know this girl, yet he felt a need to protect her. he went out and waited in his car in the parking area. "Wait," he said with a deep voice. Chae won was surprised he would have sworn a few minutes ago that he was in a hurry to leave. The loan sharks finished their meal as she handed them their bills, "How ironic, we're paying for your service and you owe us," he said humorously as they both burst into laughter. Eun Ha felt a knife pierce her heart, she had never felt so much humiliation in her life. she followed them outside the building trying to plead with them for the last time to see if they'd cave in and give her more time but they just walked straight to the car and drove off. Eun Ha stood outside the hotel, in despair, her father was going to die, this men were ruthless, the cloud had darkened earlier, soon few drops of rain started falling, but she was in no hurry to leave as if it were possible for the rain to wash down all her pain, she stood outside staring blankly into thin air while it rained on her, soon her hair was separating into clustered strands, tear a freely flowed down her cheeks, she felt like screaming, she felt helpless, Just then she couldn't feel the raindrops on her skin she turned as her eyes met with a tall handsome young man holding a big black umbrella. Mu Chen looked at her sorrowful eyes, he could see the pain in her soul through them. "I know who they were, and I can roughly guess what it is" Eun Ha was confused, "what did he know? who was he? why is he being kind to me?" she asked one question after another in her head. "How much?" he asked with a king like voice. "10,000 dollars," she said as her lips trembled, "How did you...?" this time she was starting to get suspicious. I have an offer for you, I'll clear the debt but you'll carry my baby"

Kang Mi Cha

Kang Mi Cha was lost in deep thoughts, she had wiped off her makeup carefully with facial wipes and take a late-night shower, she spent some time in the bathtub as if she was trying to resonate all the nerves in her body, she wasn't feeling quite okay, Muchen was the first and last thing in her mind each day, it was frustrating, she had tried to suppress her feels but how could she when all she thought was of him and she had just the right pictures to support her.

After a nice shower in the bathtub she got up for the bath and picked a white towel neatly arranged on the rack, she wrapped herself around with it and stepped out, she quickly put on her nightie and sat on her bed, this time she needed a good plan to get him, he was proving hard to get, whatever Kang Mi Cha what's she gets she reassured herself. She carefully drafted out her plans for later in the day in her head and dozed off holding her phone close to her chest. It was a picture of Muchen, she had been looking at, she did that most nights.

The sound of Eun Ha's alarm was all it took to get Eun Ha on her feet, today was her clinic day but first, she had to go to work, she was on day shift, for the next 3 days, she made her way to the small-sized miserable bathroom room in her small apartment she hated so much, but she was a strong girl, she could always adapt to any situation, she questioned if she had made the right decision to go into this, it felt like a mistake it felt wrong but she reminded herself that she had no choice, did she?

She quickly took her bath and brought out a pair of black Jean trousers, a tank top and a Jean jacket.

After wearing it went to the large mirror at the side of her bed to take a critical look at herself, her belly was already protruding, there was no way she'd wear that, she pulled off the jacket and tank top changing it to a black big best she turned sideways and back to check herself out completely, she applied a little makeup on her face and made her way out through the door as she turned the lock to the right pulling the keys out, this time she was quite early, she didn't have to rush out as she normally does, she took a step to the right to make her way through the stairs as her eyes fell on a brown grocery bag, she picked it up and didn't see a name attached to it. She had failed to read the terms of her contract properly, Muchen was to send her some cash and groceries weekly, in as much as she felt she didn't need his help, he was not going to sit idly and watch the mother of his unborn child lack. She looked at the bag and left it there she wasn't accepting.

"I'm not accepting any more favours from him, he has done enough"

She walked down the hallway to the bus station and took a bus to Mayfield, as usual, she was lost in thoughts, she remembered she hadn't heard from her parents in a while, she decided to place the call on the bus before it got to her stop.

She failed her mother's number

"Hello, Eun Eun" her mother called.

"Good morning mum, did you sleep well?"

"Yes I did," she responded in a haste, she wanted to know how her father was doing,

"Father?" she asked again

"He is recovering well, but we ran into debts while trying to cover his hospital expenses,"

a sudden rush of sadness filled her, she knew it'd be difficult for her family she had been working so hard to look after them. She was going to send money for them when she got her salary for the month.

Her mum had been managing a small business since her father's fall but his gambling habits had made the family financially unstable but she was going to do all she could.

"How is Han Jae?"

"Hmmm" her mother sighed

"Han Jae is working with Mr Chu, he said he wants to teach him computer programming

He said he wanted to help him, Han Jae is quite talented and we can't afford college right now so I figured it wasn't a bad idea."

"Alright ma"

"Are you okay Eun A?" her mum asked with a shaky voice

I'm fine mum, she knew her mum would burst into tears any moment from now

"Got to go mum talk to you later" she added

"I love you mum"

" Love you too baby"

The phone went off and Eun Ha discovered they were just a few meters away from her stop.

She arranged her bag and got off the bus

Meeting a scene at work.
