First Day of Work

The head of security was currently reporting about the new recruit to the master of the mansion.

"you're saying that he defeated every candidate…" The middle-aged man on the other side of the table said as he took out the cigar from his mouth.

"Yes, Sir. That's exactly how it went," The Security Head replied.

"Hmmm, how is he when compared to you 10 years ago?" The middle-aged man asked out of curiosity.

"Way better," A brief reply came from the security head.

"So, he's that good…what about his background?" The master asked.

"Pretty clean, he used to be a boxing instructor at a local gym until now," The security head passed a file to the other side of the table. He had received it from the security company an hour back.

"That's good…still keep an eye on him for a few days," The man said after looking into the file.

"Yes sir," The security head replied and soon left the room.

The next day Jin reported to the front of the mansion at seven in the morning. He was dressed in a black suit and trousers and matched it with black shoes. He looked like a typical security guard from the movies.

He was currently standing among a group of security guards who were being briefed by the deputy head, Jacob. After everyone was briefed, they were told to disperse to their spots. From the briefing, Jin also got to know about his task. He was to guard the entrance of the mansion along with another guard.

Jin soon went to his position.

Jin's colleague soon made him familiarize himself with his task. He was supposed to scan everyone with the hand-held metal detector not leaving a single person out. There were a few exceptions though like the master and his family, the security head and the deputy head.

"How many family members does our master have?" Jin asked.

"There's only one, her daughter," The man named Vicktor sighed.

"What about the mother?" Jin asked.

"Well, she lost her life in a car accident ten years ago," Vicktor said in a gloomy tone.

They felt a bit of a movement from the inside of the mansion and stopped talking. Soon the door of the mansion was opened from the inside and a middle-aged man wearing a black overcoat on a brown suit walked out of the house. He was accompanied by the head and the deputy head of security on his sides.

From this, it was clear that he was the master of the house.

Vicktor bowed his head slightly at him and seeing this Jin too followed suit. When Jin's head was down the middle-aged man gazed at him for a second before walking forward. It was unclear what was on his mind.

"With the family head gone we only need to be careful about the young miss," Vicktor said after a while.

"Young miss?" Jin asked out of curiosity.

"She has a habit of escaping the mansion from time to time…" The man shook his head and continued, "…come to think of it, it's been a while since she last attempted the escape,"

"Is she not allowed to go out?" Jin asked.

"No, it's not like that. Even though the master is very overprotective of his daughter he won't bind her at home. However, he wants her to be guarded all the time by us so whenever she goes out, she needs to be accompanied by two security personnel at least…

The young miss, however, hates it. She wants to go out alone instead of being accompanied by us muscle-headed men. That's why she escapes from time to time and whenever she does…we have to face the head's fury." Vicktor said in an exhausted manner.

The two of them exchanged words from time to time during their shift and time gradually passed by. At 12 in the afternoon, their shift ended and they returned to their dormitory.

Their shift was in the form of 4 hours cycle. 4 hours work followed by 4 hours rest which was again followed by 4 hours work and then a 6-hour rest period for sleep. There was an entertainment room at the dormitory so after having his lunch Jin spent his time there along with Vicktor.

They watched a movie while playing carrom against each other. Four hours passed by quickly as a result and they were back to their posts now.

It was around four in the evening when they took over their posts. Nothing much happened and time passed by just like in the morning.

However, at seven in the evening, the door of the mansion was opened and a young woman walked out of the door. She was wearing a black turtle-neck top and a skirt.

"Young miss, are you going somewhere?" Vicktor came forward and asked. He hoped that she wouldn't make things difficult for him.

"Yes, shopping for clothes," she said.

Jin looked at her appearance and his eyes paused for a brief second in surprise. She looked beautiful but that was not the reason for Jin's surprise.

'It's her,' Jin thought. She was the same crazy woman he met at the movie theatre a week back.

"Let me call someone for you," The man took out his phone wanting to call a free guard to escort the young miss.

"No need for that, I'm in a hurry, you two, come with me," she said as she pointed towards Vicktor and Jin.

Vicktor nodded and while waiting for the car to arrive he called his colleagues to take the guard spots at the mansion.

"I haven't seen you before…" The woman muttered when she gave a passing glance at Jin.

"Today's my first day ma'am," Jin replied.

"I see," With that, she entered the car. Vicktor took the driver's seat while Jin took the co-driver. The car started and they soon left the estate.

'It's the first time the young miss has personally asked for an escort…I wonder what changed,' Vicktor thought as he pulled his focus back on the road.
