"Ms.Song...Ms.Song.... Please wake up .... We have arrived," Cici woke me up.
Seeing Ian's injured hand, I realized I still had to act like the boss.
"Ms.Song, as per your orders, we got the mirror from the palace. Where do you want it to be placed?" Ian Johnson asked.
"Ian get some rest. Cici remember to send the mirror to my room."
"Yes, Ms.Song," Cici replied.
As I was about to go upstairs, I received a phone call from Pat.
"Hello.."
"Hey, where are you...Free tonight?"
"Yeah... Just reached home."
"Ok, can you attend a banquet with me?"
"Banquet?"
"Yeah... Just for the business expansion we need to attend it."
"oh.."
"I will pick you up in 2 hours then..."
"Ok..."
I was truly amazed by the outfits Ms.Song maintained. It made me feel like a different person. Pat picked me up and we reached the venue.
"Pat, is there anything I need to prepare for this?"
"Come on... Just a dinner... We will leave in an hour.."
"Ok.."
"Didn't expect you to wear this chain for this meet." Pat pointed out the lotus pendant I was wearing.
"mm...I liked it .." I said thinking the reason I am wearing it is not to lose it.
Pat introduced me to his business partners.
"Hello, Mr.Williams. This is Ms.Song, representing Mr.Song for today." Pat said.
"Ms.Song!!! Glad to meet you. I heard a lot about you from your father"
"Pleased to meet you." I smiled and said.
"You might feel bored over here a bit. You can accompany Mrs. Williams until I finish."
"...mmm..." I nodded.
Even though I was present with Mrs. Williams, I was still thinking about how I got to this world. After an hour Pat and I started to return home.
"What is Ms.Song deeply thinking?"Pat asked
"Nothing."
"Tell me, I know you are bored in such meetings."
"Don't worry. So, you also call me Ms.Song?" I asked
"I was just teasing you..."
As I got out of the car, Pat said "Ira... Good night.."
"Ira?"
"Do you want me to call you Ms.Song? Ok.. Ms.Ira Song "
I just thought... So Ms.Song's name is Ira.... while my name is Iva...
Similarities in name too...
"Good Night Pat."
As I entered my room, I saw the mirror placed in my room. I went near the mirror to have a look. I noticed a door. As I turned back I noticed the reflection in the mirror to be different from the decor of my room.
I tried to touch the mirror to find my hands were able to get through it.
I was a bit scared and took a step back... and realized that there was no injury to my hand.
I couldn't understand if it was an illusion or real. I slowly went near the mirror thinking it might be able to give me a clue. As I took a step forward I was able to get through it. The next step I saw I was at a place that was quite dark.
I slowly looked around to see where I was. Just then someone opened the door and switched on the lights.
"Ms.Song, what are you doing?" Mr.Johnson said.
I was confused for a moment if the person standing in front of me was Mr.Johnson, my boss, or Ian, my assistant.
"Mr.....Ian....I... " I didnt know how to address.
"Mr.Johnson, I guess there is something wrong with the contract. " Mr.Clark came with a file.
Seeing Mr.Clark, I was overjoyed. I am back to my space.
"Ms.Song...Your outfit seems to be different. You look different." Mr.Clark said.
"Thank you.." I said bit hesitant.
"Ms.Song, you left early today, right? Why are you back in the office and at this time?" Mr.Johnson asked.
"I ... I ... I forgot my wallet. So I came to check if it's here."
"Did you find it?" Mr.Clark asked.
"No, I think I need to search again in my room. I will make a move now."
"If you don't have your wallet how will you get home?" Mr.Johnson questioned.
Mr.Johnson's cold face and his way of inquiries, made me miss Ian Johnson of that world who always nods for my instructions.
"I will ask my friend to come over... I will leave I said ."
"Clark, arrange a company vehicle to drop Ms.Song."
"Sure."
"Thank you, Mr.Johnson."
I just want to rush home to see if Ms.Ira Song is living my life in my world. As I reached my house, my mom was at the entrance.
"Iva, you said you wanted to rest. When did you go out? And what's with this dress?"
" my mom asked.
"Just borrowed from Cici. I am off to bed." I rushed.
As I opened the door, I saw Ira. She was looking just like me.
"Ms.Song??"
"Iva.. I have been waiting for you..."
