Stuck in you

"You're skipping work, Mr. Fu. Your salary should be deducted twice as much if you skip work for no reason," Rachel joked as she smiled at the man in front of her.

Jack decided to play along. "All I want is to take her out to open her field of vision."

Amused by Jack's theatric expressions, she punched him gently on the chest. "Ass. Where do you want to take me? Tell me or the police would be on their way."

He completely changed character as he solemnly placed a hand on his chest, shaking his head. "Don't be scared. I'll take you to a fairyland."

The car echoed with laughter as the two joked along the way. Unconsciously, the atmosphere between them finally relaxed and brightened as mirth danced across their eyes. In more than an hour's drive, the sunlight's orange gaze delighted their view.

The road they were going on was flanked by two mountains, as if the road had split them into two. Rachel admired the scenery with curiosity and excitement.

He drove very fast until he arrived at their destination. Although it wasn't a paradise, it was still a place that could hold a thousand pictures.

She got out of the car. The sun was still shining brightly outside. Since she didn't take her umbrella with her, she raised her hand to cover her forehead.

Jack led her along the path till they finally found shade.

"Where are we going?"

she asked curiously. "Fishing," he replied.

Rachel blinked as she gazed at each of his hand, seeing that he had nothing with him. "Are you sure?" They came out to fish yet he didn't bring any of the equipment.

He saw through her expression almost immediately. He laughed and waved his hand. "You'll know when we get there."

After walking along the avenue that was paved with stones, a huge statue came into view. It was carved to shape a fish that had just leapt out of the water.

The winding road stopped at wooden fences. Soon enough, a row of small houses came into view.

It was much cooler here as they were much closer to the ocean.

"In there?"

"Yes."

He led her through the shadowy parts of the path and stopped at the third house. When they arrived, she peered across the window. It was a shop.

In it was a variety of fishing products that could help them on their way. The shopkeeper was working on a fishing pole, with his back facing towards them. When Jack knocked on the window, the man turned his head.

He immediately walked over with a smile. "Hello, what do you need?"

Jack took out his card and placed it on the table. At the sight, the storekeeper nodded understandingly.

He walked up to the side door. "You haven't been here for a long time, Mr. Fu. Welcome back."
