Chapter 20: The Return

3 years later

Minho is meeting with the company Lawyer. They meet once a week to check on commitments and anything important and urgent.

“Carl’s team is doing great as expected.” Said the Lawyer

“I wouldn’t have hired him to replace me as the manager of my previous team if I didn’t know he can deliver.” Said Minho “That team will be a waste if I don’t place a good manager to handle them”

“Very well said Boss.” Said the Lawyer “By the way…I think you’ve seen the news this morning. Samuel Park was brought to the hospital again yesterday. Nobody can say what the problem was. But people are starting to speculate that FlyAir’s CEO might need to retire soon.”

“He’s not young anymore. But his mind is still very sharp.” Said Minho

“Have you seen the contract proposal?” asked the Lawyer

“I’ve seen it. But I’m still thinking about it. A partnership with FlyAir again…that’s something that we need to dig deeper before we decide.” Said Minho

“You were able to deliver the commitment we made them in 1 year instead of the agreed 2 years. I think FlyAir knows what you can do. Now that SkyRock and FlyAir is almost the same size, there is no other company FlyAir can get the best partnership from than SkyRock.” Said the Lawyer.

“I don’t know if that partnership can really help SkyRock…If there are rumors like Samuel’s retirement, a partnership with FlyAir might pull SkyRock down. There are always 2 sides of a coin here.” Said Minho

“Are you going to visit Samuel Park in the hospital?” asked the Lawyer

“I have a great debt from Samuel. Things like visiting him when he’s brought to the hospital, regardless of the decision to have a partnership or not, I have to be there to make sure he knows I am still thankful for everything he did.” Said Minho

Sulli’s anxious. This is Uncle Sam’s 2nd hospitalization in just a month. What is going on with him? Why is he not telling her anything?! Sulli looked at her Mom who is sleeping on the plane seat beside her. Her Mom had been longing to go back to Korea. Not knowing much English, the past 3 years had been hard for her Mom. But she stayed by her side all throughout.  Sulli checked her email. She saw an email from Robbie, her childhood friend.

“Robbie? I just said goodbye to him yesterday.”  Said Sulli

The e-mail says Robbie will be going back to Korea too a week after. He is sad that he can’t accompany Sulli now since he will manage everything that needs to be finished this week so that he can follow next week.

“Wow…What has gotten into him? He has never gone back to Korea for the past…what…18 years?” said Sulli
