Meant To Be

Chapter Twenty-Nine

Lee Ho-Seok

Ho-Seok punched the punching bag as hard as he could as he drowned out the news, it's been a few weeks since the break up with Lyric and he haven't done anything but stay in his gym. Focusing on his training kept his mind off of Lyric entirely, but damn did he miss her.

"Ho-Seok." Junhyeong mumbled.

Ho-Seok ignored him as he continued punching the punching bag.

"LEE HO-SEOK!" He yelled.

Ho-Seok sighed before looking at him.

"What." He asked through gritted teeth.

"Go home." He said.

Ho-Seok scuffed.

"I own this gym." Ho-Seok laughed.

Junhyeong looked at him like he was crazy.

"Boy do you know who you're talking to?" Junhyeong asked in a stern voice.

Ho-Seok looked at him and sighed, he did not want to go down that road with Junhyeong he was like a father to him and just because he was angry didn't mean he needed to take that out on him.

"Fine." He said dropping his hands to his side.

"I understand you're hurting, but don't overwork yourself." Junhyeong said.

Ho-Seok nodded as he dropped his head, he grabbed his gym bag before exiting the gym. He took in the air before heading to his car, he looked at his phone and sigh seeing no notifications from Lyric. Why would she even bother to text him anyway, he shook his head before getting into the car he scrolled through his social media still seeing Lyric getting dragged through the mud. It broke his heart that she was going through this but it is what it is.

Lyric Williams

Lyric felt her palms get sweaty as she anxiously waited for her name to be called, the director wanted to see her and she was nervous. She was a mess the bags under her eyes could tell you that, since the breakup she's dug herself into her work and it was taking a toll on her. She had a bad feeling about this meeting but she knew she would chin up and take it like a gee no matter the outcome.

"Ms.Williams, he's ready for you."

Lyric nodded before standing up and walking into the office, she sat down and crossed her legs before looking at Director Thomas.

"Nurse Lyric, how are you?" He asked.

"I could be better." She mumbled.

"I see you worked over 288 hours these past few weeks." He said.

Lyric mentally winced, damn.

"Yeah, I just recently gotten some...free time." She said.

"I see, we appreciate the hard work but Ms.Williams we will be putting you on a leave for some rest." He said.

"A leave? 288 hours is nothing, It's been time where I worked over five hundred hours in a month and I didn't see anyone complaining then." She said.
