SEOUL, 12pm, Krystal GROUP OF COMPANIES**
Amara's cries filled the whole office and anyone passing by will think something bad really happened.
Her gorgeously pedicured legs are on the table and she has a big bowl of popcorn with her, she hugged the bowl to her chest.
She's eating the popcorn as she cries, watching a drama on TV.
"How sad" she sobbed, eating from the popcorn again.
She has finished almost a roll of tissue in wiping her tears.
"Guys are wicked, how could he do that to her" she cried, eating from the popcorn again as she continued watching the movie.
Her manager entered the office and sighed, knowing she's at it again.
"Ligament is that you?" She asked, still not looking away from the TV.
" Manager Yang, not Ligament" he replied, coming in fully .
He sighed, seeing the mess of tissues on the ground.
"Those aren't real tears" he said and Amara looked up at him.
"This movie is heartbreaking seriously, how could Hoseok break up with Jenny after five years of dating, five f*cking years Ligament" she sniffed.
" It's Manager Yang, not Ligament" Yang replied, folding his fists
Amara continued crying while eating popcorn.
"All men are snakes, Hoseok is a cobra" she cried
"Then can I call Mr Banks a python?" Yang said and Amara glared at him.
" My dad?Are you crazy?Are you crazy!" She shouted, throwing the popcorn bowl at him
He avoided it and it landed on the ground.
She stood and put off the TV before wiping her fake tears.
"And you should really take this TV out of this place, it's an office,not a living room" Yang said.
" I have to decide how my office will look ok?" she replied and gasped.
" My blue car is arriving today!"
"Another car?You bought three cars this month already and this is just the twentieth day of the month. You have more than thirty cars that you haven't driven in your garage, Amara!" Yang cautioned.
Amara smiled and flaunted her hair
"What's so wrong about it?I own my money anyways, I'm thinking of buying a skyscraper by next month, oh I need another private jet too,I got tired of the current one, then I'll buy...
"The whole Korea should come next, you'll buy the whole Korea at this rate, look at Amara, I know you have the money but....
"Why are you here?The last time I checked, I'm done with all my scheduled appointments for today," she interrupted.
" Mr Kevin is waiting at the institute already" Yang replied and her eyes widened.
" Zanillia's manager?"
" Yes, so you have to meet him as soon as possible if you really wanna get the contract" Yang said and Amara smiled.
" Yes!, Arielle is so dead!" She gushed, walking into her dressing room.
Yeah, she has a dressing room in her office and it's full of luxury just like her dressing room at home.
She changes anytime she needs to go out.
She came out twenty minutes later, looking more stunning in another dress, she retouched her makeup too.
"Let's go Ligament!" She said happily, almost bouncing on her heels.
" It's Yang... Yang" Yang muttered as he walked beside her.
They took the elevator downstairs and her staff kept bowing as she walked out with Yang.
Her guards joined her in front of the company and Yang opened the car door for her.
"I don't need guards, stay back" she ordered and the numerous guards stepped back
She got in the car and Yang got in with her.
"The institute" Yang said and the driver drove.
Amara kept pressing her phone, ordering every new designer she came across.
"ding!, This bag!" She said, ordering the fifth one.
"Can you just stop already?We've been on the road for just ten minutes and I can't even count the number of shoes and bags you've ordered... please!, Just please!" Yang cautioned.
"Ligament?" She called
"It's Yang," he replied.
"Have you ever bought me pants?" She said, looking at him while tossing her phone on her Palm.
" How could you say something like that ... Vulgar" Yang said and she grinned.
"I own my money!, Seems like I've been too lenient on you these days, I should make you drink aloe vera juice once we get back to the office" she replied.
Aloe vera juice is a drink she specially made, a mixture of juice and aloe vera...f*cking bitter.
Any of her staff who misbehaves will have to drink three cups.
"No, ok my lips are sealed" Yang held his lips and she scoffed.
She smiled and returned to her phone but noticed the car was not moving.
"Hey what's happening?" She asked the driver.
"Someone is causing commotion upfront," the driver replied.
" Commotion?, On this busy road?" She raised a brow and got her black shades.
" Where are you going?" Yang asked.
" To stop the commotion" she replied richly.
" But....
She's already out of the car before he could finish.
She put on her shades and smirked before starting her stylish walk to the scene.
A woman who looks obviously rich is busy throwing the things of another obviously poor woman across the road, the poor woman is busy begging but it seems the arrogant rich one is not ready.
The rich woman suddenly slapped the poor one and she fell blindly.
Amara got to the scene just when the rich woman made another throw.
"What's happening here?" She questioned the woman
She brought down her hand and faced Arizona.
" Who are you to question me?" she barked.
" Who am I?" Amara chuckled.
" This worthless thing was selling milkshakes beside this road without taking permission from anyone!She's destroying the face of Korea!" The woman shouted at Amara's face.
" Stay back!, You smell gross!, Was your perfume made of garlic?" Amara fanned her nose with her hand.
" What!" Mrs garlic-scent replied shockingly.
"So because she was selling her wares beside the road, you started tossing it away, do you know if this is her only way of living?" Amara said.
" I don't care!" Mrs garlic-scent said and kicked the poor woman with her heels.
Amara turned Mrs garlic-scent to herself and slapped her soundly, making everyone gasp.
"She's Mrs Yeji, the chairwoman of the Gold group," Yang whispered behind her.
" Oh really?" Amara said and slapped Mrs Yeji on the other cheek.
"Amara!" Yang cautioned but she slapped Mrs Yeji again and again till she fell.
"How dare you!" Mrs Yeji said her eyes were already red as a result of the slaps.
Amara pulled the poor woman up and wiped her tears.
"Yang, one of my debit cards," she said.
Yang gave her one and she gave the woman.
"004, spend it judiciously," she said .
"Huh?, For me?, gamsahamnida!, Jungmal gomasseumnida (Thanks, I'm very grateful)" the woman said and Amara smiled as she walked away.
Mrs Yeji sprained up.
"Amara!You're going down for this!" She spat.
"So you know my name, I don't know what makes you stupid but whatever it is, it's working perfectly" Amara replied and left with Yang.
" The battle line has just been drawn!" Mrs Yeji yelled after her
" Amara, Mrs Yeji is old enough to be your mother, how could you?" Yang whispered beside her.
Amara stopped and turned back.
"Why didn't you tell me that earlier?" she said and walked back to Mrs Yeji.
Yeji smirked.
"Here to apologise?" She glared.
"No, to complete your dose" Amara smiled and slapped her again.
" Amara!" Yang gasped.
*******
HAESUNG UNIVERSITY**
ENGLISH DEPARTMENT**
"That'll be all for today, let's call it a wrap" the cheerful lecturer said, packing his books.
" Yes sir" the students chorused.
Vince took his two books and stood.
His jeans are faded, same as the shirt he's wearing, his sneakers are far from good but his face is handsome.
"Are you going already?We still have one class left," Chrissy said beside him.
Chrissy is a rich girl... everyone in the school is rich except him.
He's here on scholarship right from his year one till now because of his extreme brilliance.
Chrissy is his only friend.
"I won't be able to wait, I have to go work part-time" he replied.
"You got an additional one?" She asked, standing up.
" Yeah," he replied.
"You have three before, plus this additional one, making four, Vince the stress" she said, holding his arm.
" I wasn't born with a silver spoon like you, I have to work to support my junior brother and mum" he replied.
" But I can help, I can give you a black card and you won't have to work again" she offered.
She offered that several times but he has always turned her down.
"Can you lend me your new textbook?" He asked, ignoring the question.
"Of course" she replied and quickly brought it out.
He took it and made to go but she held him still.
"I'll give you a ride, lemme drop you" she said.
"No, you should stay for the last class so I'll get the note from you tomorrow" he said and she let him go reluctantly.
" Ok, see you!" She said,
He left class and Chrissy inhaled before sitting.
"Just how many part time jobs will he do?" she muttered.
Vince was still walking out of school when he bumped into Summer.
Summer is the daughter of the owner of the school so she always gets away with anything she does, good or bad.
She has never tried doing good though.
"Hey golden boy" she said, touching his face but he stepped back.
He tried taking another way but she blocked him again.
