Symbiosis: Growth of Lichens in Ochre soil Unwanted Guests
For the next two days Chan avoided Jina at all costs. He wanted to see a flustered Jina and was enjoying seeing her searching for him everywhere. But on the third day, to his surprise Jina showed no interest in looking for Chan and this made him upset. This also made Chan to decide to meet Jina that day itself. So he fixed an appointment with her late in that evening, in the Lilac mansion itself, for avoiding any doubts. He had it all planned, but that’s when something unexpected happened. As Chan was getting ready to leave the office, he saw Anna running around with some files in a rush. It was already time for her to leave, but she doesn’t seem to care about that at all. There wasn’t anything urgent pending, so what made her busy, unknowing to Chan, made him suspicious. Chan brought a cup of coffee for Anna and enquired, “You don’t seem to be leaving any time soon. What came up all of a sudden?” Anna took the coffee from him and said, “Oh, I was craving for some sugar. You are the

Inside the room, Jina was standing with a whiskey bottle ready to be broken on to Leo’s head. Leo, who was standing next to Jina, was smiling sheepishly seeing Jina’s tantrums. He was asking her to come to him obediently with his right hand and walking towards her slowly. Both Leo and Jina were shocked by Chan’s arrival. Chan rushed in and took the bottle from Jina’s hand by force and stood in front of her. He said to Jina, “You are not strong enough for this. So stay back. Don’t do anything rash.” “What the hell are you doing here? By any chance, are you playing the knight to save the damsel in distress?” Leo mocked Chan and stood there with his hands on hip as Leo was losing patience with both Jina and Chan. “If I have to, I will. But I never expected you to use an idiom correctly with that brain of yours. I am surprised.” Chan retorted. “You…What do you think of yourself? Master of this house? Or are you having an affair with her? Is that why you are so riled up now?” Leo was bo

“Aren’t you going to say that I attacked Jina, next? When in truth it was her, who seduced me! She might have acted all righteous before, but today it was her who made the first move on me. I am a man, and it’s natural that I get attracted to such a woman. You barged into the room and kicked me, without even enquiring what the situation was. Isn’t it because you couldn’t see your woman getting close to another man?” Leo narrated an entirely different story just like Anaya did. Shen Shaw looked at Jina and Chan with disgust and Jina sat there with her head low. Nanny Shu tried to make Jina talk, but she kept silent. Unexpectedly, Chan rushed at Leo Sun and punched him in the face. Leo Sun didn’t expect Chan to be so fast and fell down in the impact. Chan kicked him once, in his stomach and before he could kick another, Jina shouted at Chan to stop it. Chan turned to look at Jina but before he could say anything she begged, “Don’t. Don’t hurt him. Everything is my fault, okay? Leave

Jina was sitting crying in her room and nanny Shu was trying to comfort her. Nanny Shu poured her some water and urged her to drink but Jina denied it. Jina then stood up and started walking as if she had lost her mind. Nanny Shu didn’t understand what was going on or how to resolve the matter. She kept watching Jina who was walking around like a lunatic. After an hour or so Jina stopped and started packing all of a sudden. Nanny Shu really doubted if Jina had lost her mind. She asked, “What are you doing Jina? Should we go see Chan? Can you tell me what happened exactly? Then maybe I can make a call and tell him everything. Will you please listen to me? Jina..?” Jina continued packing and said, “We need to go from here, nanny Shu, as quickly as possible. Pack your things and let’s wait till night. We will leave when everyone is sleeping.” “Jina, I understand that we have to leave. But, should we do it now itself? Don’t we need a place to stay, if we leave now? Relax and think for

Jina and nanny Shu had to spend most of their savings to pay the deposit and a month’s rent for a small apartment. It wasn’t enough for them two, but still they were glad to have a place to sleep at least. Jina started looking for a job from the next day. For a good looking and smart girl like Jina, it wasn’t that hard to find part time jobs. Along with that she sent her resume to various pharmacological companies as she was specialized in that field.There wasn’t much response from the company recruitments, but Jina got a job as a storekeeper for a grocery store, which was enough to buy food for the two. She also prohibited nanny Shu from working outside, as it hurt her pride and made her guilty.Two weeks went by and everything was suspiciously calm. There was no information about Chan or where he went to. No one contacted him, nor did he contact anyone. There was no movement from Leo’s side too, as Jina had afraid. But it was the silence before the storm. Something big was approach

Jina kept her pose of holding Chan by his collar waiting for his reply. She felt as if she could even kill someone at this moment. That much anger and hatred filled in her.On the other hand, Chan was standing there like a rock without any difference. He was so calm that it irritated Jina more. Chan looked into Jina’s eyes and felt her anguish and worry.Chan took Jina’s hand and removed it from his collar. He kept on it making Jina unable to move. Jina tried resisting, but she was held in place by his strong hands. He then pulled Jina towards him, making her bump into his chest and held her close. Jina struggled again, but was totally captured by Chan who held her from her back with his one hand and lifted her chin with the other.Now, both their faces where in close proximity and Jina could feel Chan’s breathe. She pushed Chan with all her might and Chan let go of her, making her stumble backwards.“Why? You don’t like this close? Weren’t we having an affair? Are you now trying to t

Nanny Shu returned after another hour and the scene welcomed her was of Jina lying in the hall over a file and some photographs. Nanny Shu’s heart skipped a beat on seeing that and she hurriedly went to check on her. Only when she realized that Jina was just sleeping, her breathing came back to normal.“Jina…wake up Jina. Why are you sleeping here, my girl?” Nanny Shu patted Jina slowly and waked her up.When Jina recognized nanny Shu’s voice, she stood up and hugged nanny Shu with all her strength. She then examined nanny Shu all over and hugged her again saying, “You are all right! Thank God you are alright. You aren’t hurt anywhere, are you nanny Shu?”Nanny Shu was stunned to hear that question. “Why would I be hurt? I just went for a walk outside. What are you imagining girl?” Nanny Shu said a lie, as she had gone to look for jobs in reality.“So you never met Chan? Or Leo? You never saw any of them or their men?” Jina asked to reaffirm everything.“No, I didn’t see anyone of the

Though it was early morning by now, there was not enough light in the road. Jina was walking with her luggage aiming for the train station all alone. It was then she noticed a black car following her. It was a black car that followed her before too. She thought about running for her life at first. Then she decided not to. Instead, she stopped for a moment and walked back to the car, which had also stopped moving when Jina stopped walking. This has to end now itself. She don't want to run away again afraid.Thinking like that Jina went to knock on the driver's wind shield, with all her courage. But it was the back seat door that got opened and Chan got down from the car. Jina was startled to see him now."So it was you, who was following me around? Why am I not surprised?" Jina asked suppressing her scare.Chan yawned and tilted his head sideways to do some stretching. Then he replied, " I already told you this, that I never had anything to do with you before yesterday night. But I wil

“What the hell do you mean?” Leo Sun shouted at Chan.“I mean what I said. I told you I will settle the scores personally. So here I am, taking over your precious company. If you don’t know to behave, then I will snatch everything you have.” Chan replied arrogantly.“We had the deal with Lichen Consortium. Then why are you acting as if you own everything? I want to meet Neil Lichen this instant. We will talk about this with him.” Duo Sun said with determination. He was not ready to give up his rights on his company, just like that.Chan laughed and nodded his head, pitying on the foolishness of Duo and Leo Sun.“Can you take care of the rest, Mr. P?” Chan asked Mr. P, so that he could leave with Jina.Mr. P said, “Yes, Boss. You may leave now.”Chan nodded and took Jina’s hand and made his leave. On the way out, he paused to warn Leo, “Jina is my woman. If you dare touch her again, I will make sure that you aren’t alive for the next day. Take this as your last warning.”More than Leo,

By the time Jina woke up, Chan had already ordered breakfast for both of them. She sat up and saw Chan already dressed in his usual style and checking his laptop. He seemed busy. But under the morning sunlight, he had an irresistible charm. The way he occasionally picked up his coffee cup, noted something on his files and adjusted his sleeves, were really eye pleasing. Jina was lost in the scene she saw first after opening her eyes. Chan noticed Jina’s expression and smiled at her. That was remarkable. Jina had never seen Chan this pleasant or attractive before. She was awed by his smile with an opened mouth. “Are you still dreaming?” Chan asked while typing in something in his laptop. He was busy with his works, but was still meticulous about everything related to Jina. “No… Good morning…,” Jina said with an awkward smile. “Hm… morning, if you say so. But it’s already ten o’clock. I have work and you are coming with me. So hurry and get ready,” Chan replied without even raising h

Jina took three days leave and gave Merin and Siwan off for the same days. They also had worked really hard. To repeat experiments from its reports and getting the same results in such a short time was not an easy task at all. So she asked them to relax before starting the next set of experiments.Jina took half the day to clean the house, which had been pending for some time now. Chan was doing enough by maintaining it tidily, considering how a chairman of a business empire was already cooking for both of them after his job. So Jina did all her undone works and then packed her bag for the trip. Chan had said that he will come to pick up in the afternoon, so she waited for his arrival.As planned, Chan came to pick her up along with Mr. P.

“What will happen to them, now?” Jina asked while tagging along Chan.“I told them that I am leaving, didn’t I? It’s not my problem anymore,” Chan replied Jina nonchalantly.Jina realized that sometimes Chan is a very unreasonable and petty person and nodded her head in agreement.As for Anaya and Leo, of course they couldn’t see Neil and had to return in disappointment and it repeated for a couple of days.Chan remembered what Leo had said about settling scores. Chan was actually occupied with their business and Jina, that he forgot about Leo’s case. Now that he made another issue, Chan wasn’t going to let him roam free.Chan called Mr. P to look into Leo Sun’s family business. Leo’s father Duo Sun was running a super market chain, in and out the Ochre city. Chan specifically told Mr. P to enquire about their present conditions and market stability. He had already decided on the safest and easiest way to teach him a lesson. Moreover, it will let everyone else know that the Lichen Con

Jina realized what Chan had said, only after reaching the cafeteria. By then Chan had pulled a chair for Jina and went to order two drinks and pastries. Every employee at the cafeteria was now looking at Jina in envy. Their boss had brought his wife for snacks and was going to eat with her. They realized the meaning of Anna’s words now - ‘Boss is sensitive to matters related to his wife.’When Jina looked around, she saw the envious admiration in other’s eyes and felt uncomfortable. On seeing Chan return with food, she said in a low voice, “Everyone is looking at us. Shall we leave?”Chan laughed lightly on hearing her. “Why? Are we doing something shameful here?” he asked in a teasing tone.“But… they…” Jina tried to make him realize what she was saying.“Sh… Don’t talk while eating. Have you never learnt any table manners?” Chan said as he kept his finger on her lips to stop her from complaining.Chan and Jina’s cute interactions were really heartbreaking for the female employees pr

Jina looked at Chan leaving and then turned to greet her new colleagues. She was extremely happy to have her own laboratory to work with. The only problem was that it was right under Chan’s nose. She understood that Chan was keeping a close tab on everything.“Nice to meet you guys,” Jina greeted her assistants.“Welcome ma’am,” the two replied in unison.“Oh…please don’t call me ma’am. I am your colleague here. Let’s get along like that. I am more comfortable that way.” Jina said awkwardly on hearing them call her ma’am. Last time Anna also called her ma’am and it made her feel isolated.“But you are our boss’s wife and our superior. We can’t ignore the rules. Moreover this is comfortable for us.” The guy in them said. He was tall and young; a handsome nerd, from the looks of it.The other was a skinny girl with glasses. She gave an aura of a bookish and silent person. Both were fresh researchers in the same field and Mr. P had personally recruited them both from top universities.Ji

Jina opened the file which Chan had given her. It contained the details of experiments her mother conducted before the tragedy occurred in her laboratory. As Chan suspected, this could be the reason for why doom befell on her family. Jina studied everything written in that, very carefully.Jina’s mother, Jie Hain was a pioneer in pharmaceutical research. Her father Feng Hain and brother Jian run their pharmaceutical company ‘Live On’.

When Chan came back from the office, Jina was in the courtyard. So he directly went to change clothes without calling her.Jina was folding the washed clothes and arranging Chan’s dry cleaned suits. She took everything together and walked into Chan’s room without seeing that Chan was changing his shirt. The clothes obscured her vision and she bumped into Chan who hadn’t finished changing.The suits’ hanger scratched Chan’s ears and got stuck in his collar. Jina dropped everything at once and stood there looking at Chan, without knowing what to do.“Will you untie this?” Chan asked Jina while trying to remove the hanger from his collar.“Ah… I’m sorry…sorry… I didn’t see you. I will remove it now,” said Jina and she stood on her toes to untangle his collar and hanger.She was trying to keep her distance from him while tip toeing and removing the hanger at the same time. All the balancing failed when she took the suits out and slipped on the clothes she had dropped.Chan grabbed Jina by
