Pay With Your Heart

Chapter 152 - Errand Girl

Left with no choice Eun-sun accepted the shoes Dan-Han had given her. She had been surprised to see the other bags his driver brought out from the trunk of his car. She reluctantly accepted them and walked towards the apartment.

She looked at the bags in her hand as she stood by the door. She had the urge to hide the bags outside the apartment or throw them away because she was sure Hei-Ran would tease her and laugh at her for being cornered by her boss, who was still looking at her from the tinted glass of his car while waiting for her to go in.

​​

She sighed and pressed on the bell, her hands were too full to use her key. She impatiently waited for Hei-Ran to open up.

"Why are you ringing the be–" Her speech slurred when she saw Eun-sun standing there with so many shopping bags in hand.

"Holy Moses" She exclaimed, while Eun-sun surreptitiously glared at her. Always expect Hei-Ran to be dramatic.

She forced herself into the house leaving Hei-Ran to close the door, and of course, she did.

Hei-Ran hurried over to block her path, she looked her over and fixed her eyes on the bags.

"Have your boss forced you into a delivery girl?" Hei-Ran asked with immense curiosity. The thought of Eun-sun owning them didn't come to mind, as they were all branded stuff and would collectively cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

There was no way Eun-sun could afford them, so the only logical explanation was her boss turning her into an errand girl. She knew what these bosses were capable of, most especially Eun-sun's boss who was very mysterious and had a bad reputation of being a tyrant.

"Did he ask you to deliver these to his girlfriend?" Hei-Ran asked another question.

Eun-sun looked at her with stink eyes. How dare Hei-Ran call her an errand girl? It wasn't like Dan-Han wasn't capable of doing something like that. And what girlfriend was she talking about?

With a firm tone, she replied, "They are mine" while Hei-Ran scoff, she didn't believe her.

She knew how careful Eun-sun was with money, and how much debt she had to pay thanks to her parents.

"Tell me the truth" Hei-Ran pressed as she blocked Eun-sun's path. She looked Eun-sun in the eye and she noticed the irritated look she was holding in them. She only looks that way when she wasn't in the mood to convince someone that she was saying the truth...not like she has ever been in the mood to convince or coax anybody.

"No way!" Hei-Ran gasped dramatically, her eyes widened to the fullest as they zoomed in on the bags when the realization finally dawned on her.

"You mean..." She was too stunned to complete her sentence. Eun-sun rolled her eyes inwardly and heaved a sigh. Hei-Ran wasn't going to let her be now, she was sure out of it. Eun-sun let the bags slip off her hands to the floor and lazily walked to the couch and lolled herself there.

"You ungrateful brat" Hei-Ran snapped when Eun-sun let the treasures in her hand fall to the ground.

"Do you know what these are??" She asked in horror. "Beauties! Beauties Eun-sun" She lectured. She didn't need to look at the shoes to know their worth and beauty. The bags alone said it all. She hurriedly picked up the bags from the floor and placed them on the table where she began to unbox them. Her eyes grew wider with each box she opened.

The shoes before her eyes were breathtaking. There were a total of ten pairs and each one looked beautiful and enchanting.

She held one close to her nose and inhaled the smell making Eun-sun roll her eyes.

"You mean he got you these?" Hei-Ran asked in utter disbelief and excitement.

"Do you think I'll buy them?" Eun-sun asked rhetorically.

"You're too broke to afford this" Hei-Ran giggled while Eun-sun chuckled out. She was indeed broke yet she had shoes that would be able to solve sixty percent of her debts. Hei-Ran kept fawning over the shoes like they were some lost and found treasure.

"I'm so proud of you right now. Did he say he likes you?" She asked. She continued without waiting for her response. "If he asks you out, please say yes. He's definitely a good guy. If only that Jinhai was as thoughtful as this I would gladly date him. But that idiot gave me a life-limiting contract. Stupid fool" She cussed.

Eun-sun shook her head when she heard Hei-Ran. This girl loved fashion more than life itself. Who would hear her now would think she was some gold digger or a materialistic girl who'd date her boss for money but that was far from it.

Hei-Ran was one of the most independent ladies she knew. Her family might not be really wealthy but they were rich and were more than an average family.

"Maybe you can ask him. I'm sure he'd gladly oblige" Eun-sun jokingly told her, but Hei-Ran snickered.

"I highly doubt that. And I don't want his gifts before he starts appearing in my dreams. Eww, that will be creepy!" She shuddered while Eun-sun laughed. Her laughter attracted Hei-Ran's attention. She couldn't help but look at Eun-sun with amazement. This was the first time since she moved she was hearing Eun-sun laugh heartily.

Eun-sun stopped laughing when she felt Hei-Ran's gaze on her.

"Why are looking at me like that?" Eun-sun asked as she tried to stop her laughter.

"Nothing" Hei-Ran shook her head, a proud smile lingering in her eyes. "I'm just happy seeing you laugh heartily. It's been a while. Those fake stiff smiles of yours have been an eyesore for far too long" She said as she tried not to sob.... dramatically of course.

Eun-sun gave her a weird look as she heard her talk. She didn't have a fake smile, neither does she smile stiffly.

Hei-Ran hopped to sit by Eun-sun who was still looking at her weirdly.

"You know, you've changed. I like this new you, and not the old stiff one who looked like she had all the problems of this world on her shoulders. This you is good" She said with a happy smile.

"And I'm happy you've got new shoes" She chirped, returning to her normal self. Hei-Ran's eyes fell on Eun-sun's shoes by the door and she cringed.

"And you can now throw those....." She halted when she couldn't find the word for them. "Whatever, outside" she finally completed her sentence.

Eun-sun has been wearing those shoes since her University days and had refused Hei-Ran's help to buy her a new pair, but finally, she had not just one, but ten!!

"Hey don't insult my shoes, I bought them with my money"

"Yeah, whatever" Hei-Ran rolled her eyes as she resumed fawning over the shoes.
