Soo Young shrugged her shoulders as though she didn't care if Hana believed her or not. All she care was the ice cream in her hand. Jae Won walked over to his desk as he put the beads back on his wrist.
This scene didn't escape Hana's eyes, she watched attentively as though she could be question later. Jae Won prepared for his next meeting while Hana and Soo Young exchanged their good byes before they left Jae Won's office.
As they walked out of the company, was hundred pair of eyes staring at them. Hana was the most beautiful girl every man had dreamed of. Beautiful and rich.
She was so beautiful that, she was almost kidnapped as a kid which unfortunately for the kidnapper was caught in the act. He was sentenced to prison and Hana's parents being rich made sure he never stepped out of the prison ever again.
All the pairs of eyes that was on her was rather admiring her while they wished to be her. She got the looks, money and the most handsome man as her fiancé.
"It's good to be beautiful. They all can't seem to take their eyes off you" said Soo Young as she munched on her ice cream savoring the sweet, creamy flavor.
As they settled into the car that had been waiting for them for twenty minutes, Soo Young immediately gasped as though she was choking scaring both the driver and Hana.
They simultaneously asked what the problem was only to find her smiling bright eyes. "Hana, let's go to the S.G boutique" said Soo Young.
The driver shook his head not in surprise but as expected of her that she never disappoints. "I need to rest" replied Hana hoping the matter was going to end there but not Soo Young.
Soo Young being Soo Young acted out like a kid denied of his chocolate which Hana couldn't resist her. She gave in and asked the driver to take them there.
Ten minutes later, they parked in front of the boutique. Soo Young first stepped out of the car and Hana followed. But what Hana saw was a stunned Soo Young whose focus was on something or should I say someone with her mouth wide opened.
"What are you looking at?" asked Hana but she was ignored. Soo Young ignoring her was not intentional because her mind, soul and body was fixed on someone handsome.
Hana traced her gaze only to land on a handsome black man with a well defined body that screams 'fall for me'.
"So handsome" said Soo Young said grasping the attention of the driver who also traced their gaze towards the person. 'God indeed created some people' thought the driver as he drove off to park well.
Hana admired the handsome black man as he nervously paced around as though waiting for his pregnant wife. Min Ho who was on the phone with someone hanged up as he quickly walked to Vincent who was checking on his watch every seconds.
"The tow company is on their way and I've requested for another car" said Min Ho who wished such a thing didn't have to happen right now at this moment. Even though he had no idea what this meeting meant for Vincent but he knew from his actions that it meant so much to him.
30 minutes ago
The car was now quiet with Akwasi giving in to Seung Jo. At least he was a new comer into their friendship so he cut him some slack.
A few seconds later, Seung Jo and Akwasi were busy having a little chat about their Country when the car suddenly hit breaks and steer towards the right side of the road almost hitting a person.
Min Ho came down from the car and apologized before he went to check what was wrong with the car. Only then did he noticed the two front tires were full of nails.
Vincent and the rest came down as well but was surprised how this came to be. Vincent turned to look at Min Ji and Min Ho and immediately they responded simultaneously "this doesn't happen on our road" they answered.
Min Ho called their company for another car and asked them to call the tow company they use. They had been standing for thirty minutes and there were still no signs of the new car.
"It's almost time" Vincent said while looking at watch. That's the beginning of his pace. He paced around so much Akwasi had to sit down or else he might collapse from dizziness.
"Come on, would you stop pacing? That wouldn't bring the car here any faster. I know you...." Akwasi was interrupted before he could finish his sentence because of a soft voice screamed interrupting him.
They all turned towards the direction where the voice came from only to land on a beautiful girl.
"Aaaaaaaaaah" was the sound coming from Soo Young. Her bag was just snatched away by a bag snatcher. Vincent who saw the snatcher who had barely make a one meter run away from the scene almost laughed out and since he had an athletic body he caught up to the thief in no time.
The thief who thought he had hit a jackpot didn't realize he was being followed like the flash. He realized after he stop to catch his breath untill a looming shadow fell over him.
He raised his head only to meet a tall built black man smiling like a fool while looking straight into his eyes. Shivers run down his spine, his lips trembling and his heart skipped a beat several times. He couldn't breath and all he thought was handing over the bag to Vincent.
But this still got Vincent wrapping is right hand around the thief's neck strangling him for a few seconds. This got the thief coughing so hard.
After he let go Vincent stared at him for a few seconds scaring the shit out of this thief. That stare sent his souls back and forth to hell. He felt as though he had to speak the truth before he could be saved.
"I'm…. I'm not….not a thief, someone just asked me to snatch that lady purse away and I should make sure you saw me…" said the thief in Korean rambling on like a madman.
He just spoke not taking into consideration whether the words coming out of his mouth are been understood by this fine gentleman. Vincent who didn't expect such thing responded " who sent you?" but all he got from the thief was a "huh".
Yes he spoke in English making it difficult for our little thief to understand. "Who sent you?" Vincent asked again but this time in Korean. Before the thief could answer, the sound of footsteps announcing his or her presence even before he or she could be seen.
This got Vincent turning towards that direction which the thief took this opportunity to run for his dear life. Vincent only realized when he he heard running steps did he notice he was gone. But the most important thing was he got back the purse.
Vincent brought back the bag and Soo Young still couldn't take her eyes off of him. For some unknown reason, Vincent felt uncomfortable being stared at like that.
Hana quickly tap Soo Young grasping her attention "stop staring" Hana said. Soo Young gave out a small laughter that screamed nervousness and embarrassment.
"Th…uurm thank you" said Hana is Korean. Vincent understood perfectly but since he was acting like he doesn't understand Korean he acted as though he didn't understand what she had just said.
Min Ji quickly walked up to them and translated it to English for Vincent. Vincent then nodded about to leave when the sound of police siren jeering towards them.
While Vincent was running after the thief Hana called the police and just few minutes here they were parked in front of them. Meanwhile Akwasi and Seung Jo was still seated in the car and Min Ho still making inquiries about the new car.
Two men stepped out of the car with one in his mid twenties while the other was in in his early forties and Vincent knew he was screwed. He kept staring at his watch and Min Ji knew what to do.
She turned towards Hana and Soo Young who was still staring at Vincent, "Miss, we will be taking our leave because we have an important meeting in the next thirty minutes so we can't be here any longer" said Min Ji.
Vincent turned around to walk back to Akwasi and Seung Jo when he felt a hand wrapped around his wrist preventing him from moving any further.
He slowly turned to the person who held him but only realize it one the police officers who was in his mid twenties. The police officer who already had in mind to stop him soon forgot what he wanted to say when Vincent handsome face turned to him.
His words got stuck in his throat with barely any sound coming out of his mouth. The other police officer who saw what was going on immediately rushed to them.
"Mr, please you can't leave until we get your statement" said the police office with a long haired tied into a bun with a few strands hanging around his face.
