probably today will be his last day to work here, tomorrow is the start of school, his last year in college,
he doesn't know how he got admitted to that school and how it turns like that, when he didn't even sign or join any scholarship, because he plan to just work and drop college, he no longer plan to study, for him, earning money is a must, his granny need money for hospitalisation
wiping those sweats that trickle down to his face down to his neck,
"Hiro, grab some?", Andrew give him a bottle of water and soda, giving him a choice what to drink, to be honest he wants the soda and his throat dry at the tempting sight of the orange soda,
knowing its not on his money, he took the water and drink it on one go
"one moment i thought you will be true to yourself at least for once and choose this", he raise the orange soda
"since today is your last, but seeing you still choose not to, well what can i do?"
he look at him and figure what he meant, well he knew what he meant but he chooses not to, he is the kind of man who loves not to take things longer,
as the saying flows to his blood Less Talk Less Mistake, its not that his afraid to make mistakes, when mistakes are part of daily life to help everyone grows, but what he is avoiding is the more he talk the more they want to know, and that is out of him, his tired of making conversation and waisting his precious time, but if he is paid from blabbering, then it will be a different scenario
he left Andrew and continue on lifting those new arrivals of porcelain about to be delivered on different malls, in Korea
he is not from here, but this is where he grew up, his granny doesn't want to talk about the past, he doesn't even know how his parents look like, not even their names we're given to him
his granny keep telling him that
"some things are meant to be unknown", since then he contentedly enjoy the life he have with her, and as time goes by, her health is also deteriorating and so was their expenses are getting higher, and made him the choice to drop his last year in College, but now that the school who give him scholarship wont take a no for an answer, given him no choice but to attend it,
after his job he cleaned himself from the shower room meant for the workers on their locker, he doesn't want her granny to smell him like a bull again, he still remember how her granny scold him and whack him with her stick when he came home from his first to work, smelling like a rotten meat,
"i didn't race you to be neglected on your hygiene! how could a man go home smelling like shit!" he run and dodge the stick but he wont go far since his scared if his granny slip from chasing him.
"ok ok ok granny i wont do it again! stop! look, I'll be black and blue if you continue to hit me" he hug her coquettishly from the back to stop her from hitting him, and he earned a very juicy pinch from his waist that makes him eat the insides of his mouth,
not wanting to scream from that pain
since then he stays a little while to take a quick shower,
walking out on the shower, wearing nothing but a towel, Andrew came in with a click on the back of his hand,
he is aware of what he did, locking the door purposely, for them to be alone,
