Chapter 6 - Chapter-2 The predicament

I'm cooked...

Definitely, he is planning something, otherwise...why would he need a departmental assistant manager to be the personal assistant for the biggest chaebol in Korea??

Currently, I am walking home because all I had were these rundown clothes provided by the hospital and some ruined money...I am walking "Home-or like Jenny's Home" whatever....

These buildings never fail to amaze me, look at how tall they are, according to Jenny's memories, the building she works in itself has more than 50 floors....wow

Back in Asteria, even the royal palace had only 4 floors and 1 underground basement, but yes, it has a wider area, but still!!!

Halfway through the phone in my pocket rings

"..."

~Manager Lee~

"Hello?" I picked it up

"Yes! Jenny! Long time no see, How are you...I heard you got discharged today, which means you'll join tomorrow right?"

"..." Is he sick in the head?

"Jenny?"

You stupid @#%%# ugh!

"Y-yes?...umm wait gime a minute, sir"

was not going to get paid this month anyway....aha!'

"Sir, do you want me to join tomorrow?" Please fall for it

"No-no, I just said that because you were the employee of the month last year and well...er...I thought you would want to set an example!...yes!"

He totally fell for it, and employee of the month, my ass!

I'm not going, since I won't be getting any salary this month... I have four more days till the month ends...just enough time to sort things out

"Then I'll be joining next Thursday" I replied courtly as I looked ahead, looks like-

"oh but-"

line ended *beep-*

I was shocked to see her apartment, so I cut the call, obviously her memory showed a cozy comfortable apartment.....

But what the fuck is this...this looks terrible, like those abandoned buildings in those horror games she (Jenny) Plays...WTF!

I stood there bamboozled for a second before I decided to move towards my floor

'Hmm...if my memory is correct, she lives on the 6th floor, there should be an elevator around here!''

I looked around and finally saw the elevator. I walked in and clicked on the 6th floor

'Apartment number 509

wait..think about it....I was not home for like a whole year...

.

.

.

The House must be a disaster!'

And sure enough, after I opened the door with the hidden key she hid behind her neighbour's plants, the whole apartment just smelled rotten

'all the food she had must've expired...jeezz'

I ignored the kitchen and walked up to the living room, and ofcourse everything was covered in dust

'ugh! What a boring woman! a title colour won't hurt!'

But the smell was far more disgusting for it to be just food...

'wait...she had a cat!... Where is the cat??'

I immediately panicked and ran around the apartment, and sure enough, there was some black mass around the corner, of what seemed like her cat's bed from her memories....

'Is that the cat!... Oh my god' 

immediate sadness washed over me, my chest started feeling constricted....my vision became blurry...

'I am crying....'

'wait, what is that??'

The window was open with multiple scratch marks around it....

'hey....the black mass looked too small to be the cat which Jenna named....milli....she was bigger than what I was seeing...did she disintegrate??...noo it doesn't look like that'

"meow??"

Ah, she escaped!
