A few days later, in the capital.
Assistant Ikehara was the epitome of busyness in Kishimoto Depato; from attending to his superior, finishing the tasks that were channeled to him as well as dealing with the staff from other departments. He couldn't even take a bite of the sandwich given by his fiancee.
When Assistant Ikehara finally had a space to relax in his own office, something unexpected to him occurred.
Out of the blue, a call from the president himself made its way to his work phone. It was enough to startle Assistant Ikehara. Unconsciously, he straightened his back despite being alone in the office.
If there was any need, the chief assistant of President Kishimoto would be the one who contacted him. Assistant Ikehara picked up the phone with question marks hanging above his head.
"Good afternoon, President Kishimoto. Is there something I could assist you with?"
