part 1
starring:
Araya as Kim
Tik as Jay
Kim opened the door to her apartment and closed it with her feet, "What a day." she said to herself, as she set her stuff on her table and went into the kitchen to grab something to drink.
Jay looked at the file, "mom...why don't you fire some of your employees. Do they know what they are doing? I mean...Look..They are old and you only have few that are young."
"Son, don't be stupid. You can't just judge them by their age."
"Who cares. I think I'm going to lay them all off when I start to work."
"Jay, son, you have to understand that all my workers are good workers. They know what they are doing...If you laid them off, who wil take their job? And believe me, you'll feel sorry after you fired them all."
"Mom, don't worry, I won't feel sorry for them. They are just some old people. If I laid them off I'll find some new worker who can work on the projects that we have."
"Son...Listen to me for once too. Don't be stupid because I have some worker who will talk back, saying they don't agree on those stuff... If you don't believe me, don't come back telling me what you should do, cause I'm not going to help you out. Do whatever you want...But don't come back asking for advice." and walk out of the living room.
She walked into the company, people were mumbling to each other, "What's going on?"
"Kim....did you get laid off too?"
"Laid off...why?" asked Kim
"The new boss is here and everyone is getting laid off. Did you?"
"Oh...I'm not sure...I'll go check." and walk toward the bulletin board.
She backed away, "did you get laid off?"
She turned around, "oh..Wan...Yes... I did. That bastard laid me off for no freakin' reason... did you?"
She nodded, "But I can always go get one at my parents, I don't have to worry."
"yeah...lucky you, but me...what the fuck am I gonna do...that fucken boss. Who does he think he is? A jerk."
"Kim...I don't think you should swear too much...some formal people are coming.." said Wai
"screw them. Those bastard. They will feel sorry for it...and I won't let them go that easy. I'll get them back. I'll teach that stupid boss something, he'll never regret. and he'll feel sorry about it."
Wan shook her head, "come on, lets go pack our stuff, I'll try to find you a job."
"Wan, I really like this job...I hate that new boss. I don't understand. Does he think he is rich and can do anything he like. I hate those rich ass people. That bastard."
"Come, on, Kim, lets go... There is no point." as her friend took her hand.
She pulled away... "I'm not going to let that bastard go that easy....I want to know the reason why that bastard laid us all off."
"Kim, come on, lets go."
"Wan, you go ahead. I'm not happy about this and won't let them get away that easily." replied Kim.
Her friend looked hopeless and stand there her.
"Kim, Wan, is right. There is no point at all...Lets get going and pack our stuff." said a man.
Kim turned to look at him, "So you guys are ready to give up huh... Let me tell you guys something...Those rich bastard think they are all that and this...And the thing is they are the same as us... Just that they have the cash to do whatsoever they want...I'm not going to let them go that easily. They have to understand that we need money to paid for your bills. Food to feed our family and shelter... They have to understand that they can't just laid us off for no reasons. The business isn't slowing down or anything. The business is going to will. Screw them all for thinking that they are so rich and can do whatever they want. If you guys are ready to give up...Go packing... I'm not."
Everyone was in a silent...
"What are you guys waiting for...Go get ready. That's what you guys wanted. Go." said Kim.
No one move. "Kim...I not ready to give up...I'll fight with you." said a guy.
Kim smiled, "Thats the spirit. We will show those bastard that they can't think for themselves. But if they don't we can destroy the blue print of the new project and let them suffer with them throwing away our address and our files. And they must paid us right away or we won't leave this place who is with me?"
Wan raised her hand... "Why not...Kim is right... We should fight for it."
"yeah..." everyone started to talk again.
"Go kim..." whisper Wan.
Jay walked in, seeing the group of employees cheering and talking at once. "Whats going on there?" he asked his asstintant.
"I'm not sure... Seens like they are happy."
"ok..Let me watch and see what they are up to."
So Jay and the asstintant was standing there.
"Everyone...We are on a strike...whether that new jerky boss like it or not...Even if he is Ms. Yateena's son or not... He is a bastard." shouted Kim
Jay covered his ear and looked at them, "who the heck is that girl?"
"I don't know sir" replied his worker.
Jay walked toward the crowed and went to the middle. Looking face to face with Kim. "Who are you?"
"I am who ever I am? Who are you?"
"Jay, Jay Yateena, the new boss of this place."
"So...I don't care. What the hell do you want?"
"Gosh, you have such a bad mouth, what's your name?"
Wan whispered, "Kim, he is the boss aren't you scared?"
Kim turned to him, "Scared of what??? Scared that he is the new boss??? No...I'm not scared of a bastard like him..."
"um...mum..." Jay did it loudly
Kim turned around...
"you didn't answer me... What's your name??"
"My name is whatever my parents named me....Mr. Jay Yateena."
"I am your boss and comman you to tell me your name."
Kim looked at him, "How dare you telling me you are my boss... You just laid us off you bastard. You don't need to know who I am..."
"hey you..." said Jay
"hey me what?" replied Kim.
"Stop it."
"Stop what?"
"Stop whatever you are doing.. I'm doing this for the good of the company."
"Fine...I'm doing this for the good of us workers. Understand."
"What do you mean, you are doing it for the good of the worker... all you are doing is talk and talk."
"I know..." replied Kim... "We are going on strikes. Until we get what we want."
"What do you want?" asked Jay.
"Our job back... or... we are not leaving."
"No.." replied Jay.. "You guys are out."
"Don't think that we will leave that easily.. we won't"
"whatever.." said jay and walked out of the crowed.
Kim followed... "Oh... so you are the new boss and you don't want us to work here anymore and want us out.. huh.. Guess you don't have the strength to take us all huh..."
Jay turned around, "Gosh you have such a bad mouth.. Grow up."
"I am.. Mr. Jay Yateena." replied Kim... "You are the one that needs to grow up."
"What do you want?"
"Job back."
"No."
"How about we make a deal."
"How about not... and go pack your stuff."
"Dream." said Kim
"What do you want?"
"Do we have ourselves a deal first."
"Ok... what do you want?"
"ok...Here is what we want."
"say it." said jay
"if you want us out... give us our check."
"fine. Done..." He turned to his assistan, "call the bookkeeper and tell her to give them their check."
"That's not all too."
Jay turned to look at him, "What else?"
"We want you to delete all of our address and files and information."
"WHAT???"
"Is that too much... I thought so to... so guess you don't need to call the bookkeeper anymore."
Jay sighed and looked at her with evil eyes... "you bitch."
"You dork." she replied.
"Fine..."
"Good... We have to get our check first and then we have to watch you delete our information," Jay sighed and told them to follow him to his office.

Kim sighed and took a sip of her drink, "Gosh... What am I going to do?"
Wan walked in, and took a seat across from her, "Ok, ok, girl. I talked with my father..."
"and you guys aren't hiring anymore... I know...I understand and I believe its ok...I can look for another job...maybe as a waitress." interrupted Kim
"No...will yeah..." replied Wan...
"Ok...what is it?"
"My dad said that they might...but at least send in a application."
"sure.."
"yeah.. that's what my dad said. oh yeah another thing too, I think I can help you with some rent payment and stuff for until you find a job." offered wan
"It's ok, Wan... I don't want to bother you too much... I think I still have enough money for 2 months rental. I can also call home and ask my father to send me some money to spend. Don't worry about me." answered Kim.
"Come on..." said Wan.
Jay looked through all the files.. "Project s7825."
"Sir, what are you looking for?" asked his personal secretary.
"I'm looking for project s7825... Can you help?"
"actually sir, I already check all the files when I started and when I saw the paper and materials for project s7825, I couldn't find it also. I was wondering where is it...Thats why I came and ask you."
Jay looked up, "oh.. Are you sure its not in the other piles of old project."
"yes sir."
Jay sighed, "Get me my mother please will you, Minnie."
"Sure..." and dialed his home phone.
Jay put his hand over his forehead. It had just been a week since he laid all of the old workers off and He had worked so hard to rehired and try to get things straight.
"Sir, your mother."
"thanks." and took the phone from the Minnie.
"Son, what's the matter now?" asked Ms. Yateena.
"Mom, I couldn't find the project s7825, where is it?"
"It should be on the desk."
"It's no where, ask Minnie, we both looked for it and it's no where to be found. Where did you put it?"
"On my desk or shelf." replied his mother.
"Mom...We looked everywhere... Who is the person that was in charge of this project."
"Too Late now son.. You laid them all off."
"I'll go find them."
"Suit yourself. Kim Chaonagun."
"Kim Chaonagun. Thanks mom."
"No problem...Let me know what's up."
"ok" and hung up.
Jay went to his computer and search of Kim Chaonagun...But all it says was that zero found. He sighed again, "That bad mouth girl. I hate her."
"Who?" asked Minnie.
"I don't even know her name." replied Jay.
"oh."
"Mr. Yateena, the owner of project s7825 are wondering when we are going to finish it." said Don, as he open the door.
Jay looked up, "I don't know... Until we find Kim Chaonagun."
"Kim Chaonagun?" Don repeat, "Kim."
Jay looked up, "You know her?"
"um.. Yeah...No... I know a girl name Kim Caogume."
"Oh... I see. Tell them that We will replied as soon as we could."
"Yes sir." and walk out...
"Kim Chaonagun, it has to be kim...Have to ask her." Don thought to himself.
That day, after work he went to Kim's apartment, Kim opened the door, "Hi, come on in Don, what brings you here?"
"Want to go eat with me?"
"I don't think I could... I'm broke. But I can cook something?"
"my treat, come on."
Kim nodded and walked with him to his car.
Kim looked at him, "As it seem you have something to talk with me huh?"
Don looked at her, "You sure is smart and can read my mind, Yes... It's about project s7825."
"What about it?"
"Are you in charge?"
"Why... I dont' work at that place anymore... Why ask?"
"Because we are looking for it."
Kim laughed... "That suit that bastard... Good for him."
"Kim... Honestly.. What did you do with it?"
"oh.. I recycle it before I left that place... I mean... who cares.. His choose to laid us off...Let him suffer."
Don laughed, "Kim...Kim... the Kim I've always know... really you did that?"
Kim nodded, "Why would I lie about something I did do."
Don parked in the parking lot at the Golden Palace Resturant.
"My favorite place to eat." said Kim
"I know..." said Don...
Jay took a sip of wine with his girlfriend, "What's wrong?"
"Confuse and mad." replied Jay, "But not at you.. At a girl at my work place."
"oh.. " replied his girlfriend, Kik. as she went over toward him and hug him, placing a kiss on his cheek.
Kim looked up and her smile vanished away.
"What's wrong?"
"Don...I have a feeling I'm going to be in trouble."
Don turned to look at Jay and his girlfriend. "Jay.. what's wrong?"
Kim sighed and looked at Don... "The blue print. obeviously."
"Oh..."
"Switch place... please."
"um.. nope."
"Come on...please."
Jay looked up and saw Kim begging someone something.
Kim saw him looking and got up.
"Where are you going?"
"um... I feel like going to the girls room... Be right back" and took off.
Jay removed Kik's hand, "Be right back." and followed after Kim.
Kim looked back and keep walking on.. "I'll show you who I am." she said to herself.
Jay grabbed her arm, before she reaches the bathroom.
"Let go, you bastard. What do you want?"
"Where is Kim Chaonagun?"
"Who?"
"Kim Chaonagun.. Where is she?"
"somewhere, where she can not be found." she replied.
"Why do you always have to start stuff with me.?" he asked
Part 3
She pulled herself away from him, "What the h3ll did I do this time."
"Tell me where Kim Chaonagun is?"
"Why? She got laid off with us."
"I want to know where she is. I hate to argue with you." said Jay
"oh..." she sighed, "Like I love to argue with you Jay. I hate to talk or even look into your face."
"then tell me where is she?"
"So you really want to know where she is?"
"yes.. and I want nothing from you."
"remember your words."
"I will... I don't want to talk with a nonsense person like you."
"yeah me too." replied Kim
"Now will you tell me where she is?"
"She's right in front of you." replied Kim, "Now let me go."
Jay was surprised and looked at her and back away, "You're kidding... You're not Kim Chaonagun right?"
she sighed, "remember your words and I'm gone. Small world after all, Jay."
"What the f**k.." Jay heard himself cussing. "I can't believe that you are her..."
Kim looked at him, "who the hell are you." Kim pointing at him. "It's your fault. You are a stob who think of nothing but himself."
Jay sighed and tried to cool down, "Look, I don't want to start any problems with you. I want to know where are the blue print . and I want nothing to do with you."
"What blue print? I don't have any blue print."
"hey.. I don't need your stupid joke... Where are the blue print."
"um...I recycle them all." replied Kim
"What the hell."
Kim laughed, "what the hell...I think you have a problem, Jay."
Jay looked at her, "very funny."
kim just kept laughing again.
"I'm expecting to see you show up for work tomorrow 8AM."
"Dream on." replied Kim...
"I am.. You are hire back.. see you tomorrow Miss Kim Chaonagun."
"You wish.. I didn't said that I am working for you."
"If you don't you'll be sorry. Understand... See you." and walked back to the dining area.
Kim sighed and ran into the bathroom. "Keep dreaming Jay.. I don't care what you do."
Don looked at Jay wait in the lobby, Kim had told him everything about he re-hiring her back and about their agreement before she told him (jay) that she wass= Kim. Don looked at the watch and shake his head, "Kim, Kim.." and walked to his office doing his stuff.
"Where the world is that lady. Why is she p!$$ing me off." Jay said to his secretary.
"Maybe she found another job that's why." replied minnie.
Jay turned to look at her, "In a week I don't think so."
Minnie shook her head, "I'm going back to my office, if you need anything, you know where to find me." and walked away.
Kim sat in the living room, watching tv and looking through the newspaper. When her phone ring., "Hello."
"Kim, it's me Wan.. Come meet me at Dining for The King."
"Why... I don't want to.. I hate that place..."
"come on.. meet me there.."
Kim sighed over the phone... "I think I'm better off, staying home, because I might be in trouble..."
"Kim, why?"
"Because...see...um... you know that bastard Jay is being a dork and laid us off, now he wants me to work for him again... That bastard.."
"oh.. ARe you?"
"Never...I told Don that they won't see me stepping feet in that building ever again. I don't care what the f**k they said."
"Go for it, Kim, but come meet me at Dining for King please."
"Why....I don't want to go eat. I need money to pay for my rent."
"Kim...I'll treat you."
"You treat me too much."
"come on, Don is going to be there too."
"So..."
"Kim....please say yes and i won't bother you again."
"no."
"Find, Miss Kim, I'll do the hard way." and hung up
"Wait..."
Wan walked into the Jay's company. She could see that Jay is still waiting for Kim to show up. "That guy. That suit him right." she mumble to herself as she walked to the front counter. "Excuse me, can you tell me if Don Ahtawong is in this building now?"
"He should be. I'll tell him to come meet you. You may go sit down over there, pointing toward Jay.
"thanks" replied wan and walk over there.
Jay looked at her, as she sat down across from him, "Are you waiting for someone?"
She nodded. "What about you, waiting for your girlfriend?"
Jay didn't answered her.
She knew who Jay is waiting for, but shut up. She looked at her watch, "Kim..Kim..." she whispered.
Don walked toward her, "What's up, Wan. Why are you here?"
"Guess??" said Wan
Jay looked at them and thought that they are boyfriend and girlfriend, so left.
Don watched at Jay walk away, "Do you know who he is waiting for?"
"If I'm right, its Kim right?"
"Correct. Kim told you so?"
"Yeah, that's why she didn't want to go out at all."
Don laughed, "Kim...kim... I told her that she should come but she refused to and said that she don't care about it at all."
"I know, Kim said that she don't care. So I'm here and want you to make her go eat with me at Dining for King. Hungry."
"I see. Come on." and left with her.
Kim locked the door behind her and walked off to the nearest resturant to wait for her friends, as she was about to sit down and wait, Ms. Yatneena came in with her son.
PART 4>
Jay looked around the place. "Mom, why here?"
"Son, believe your mom, it has good food and if you are lucky enough, you might meet kim." replied his mom
"I already met that bad mouth girl." Jay answered.
"Son... Once you get to know Kim, she's a very nice girl. Maybe you'll like her too."
"Right..."
Don and Wan entered, "Hi, Ms Yatneena and Jay." they greeted them.
"Oh...Hi, Wan and sorry, what's your name?"
"My name is Don. I work at your company with Jay." replied Don.
"Oh... Wan, I'm so glad to see you. How is Kim. Did she find a job?" asked Ms Yatneena
"Mom, why are you asking her about that bad mouth girl? I don't think they know her." said Jay.
"She's doing alright. But no she haven't found a job. She might go back home. Thats what she said. She'll just go help her parents farm again. But she's doing fine. Don't worry about her. Right Don?"
"um... Yeah." replied Don.
"That's good to hear that Kim is doing alright. I was hoping she would come with you guys to meet my son."
"Mom... I told you I met her already. That loud mouth girl." said Jay
"No wonder, she didn't care about coming to work for you, son. What a girl with the courage."
Don and Wan was laughing to themselves. But stopped, when Jay gave them both evil eyes. "Will, we have to meet a friend so hope to see you guys again." said Wan.
"yeah, Tell Kim that I hope she come back and work at my place." said Ms Yatneena
Wan nodded.
"Don, Wan." shouted Kim as they walked pass her.
"Kim.." said Wan. as they stopped
"What's taking you two so long to get here....I was thinking of leaving in about 30 seconds...if you guys didn't show up..."
"oh, yeah..." said Don
"oh yeah.." answered Kim... "Come on, sit down and enjoy. I'm hungry."
"ok, guess what?" said Wan.
"What?"
"Ms. Yatneena is here with her son."
"you mean that bastard...he'll be dreaming of me working for him...He only wish.." replied Kim
"No...wonder, he said you have such a bad mouth."
"I'll take that as a complenment...I mean...he have no right to laid us all for no reason. I have to paid my bills...I don't care...I love to agure with people I think aren't right."
"Kim" Don touched her elbow... "The same old Kim that we always knew."
"right." replied Kim. "Anyways, I have to go to the rest room...so..enjoy talking with each other until I come back..." after they had order their food and waiting for their food to come.
Jay opened the door to exit the bathroom, as Kim was about to enter the girl's bathroom, but bumped into each other, "Hello, miss kim" said jay
Kim looked up and look at him, 'hello, Mr. Jay." replied Kim, "Nice to meet you here...I have to go use the rest room and nice to meet you too." as she was about to go in.
Jay grabbed her arm, "Not that easy, Kim...I've been waited for you for awhile...Don't you have to work today?"
Kim pulled free of herself, "as a matter of facts...I don't have to work because i don't have a job...i'm jobless..."
"Not that i know of."
Kim, pretended to play dumb, "really...um...but i got laid off because the new boss think he is so damn cool and he can handle anything...I think you got the wrong person, Jay."
Jay shook his head, "As it seems, you want to play game with me huh."
"Play game, you got to be crazy...I don't like to play game...I prefer to be alone..instead of playing game."
"Then why are you being so bitching.."
"excuse me, what did you just said to me?" kim asked him, "you little bastard...thinking that you are cool, but you are just being a dork...who think 'i know this...i know that...' but know nothing...don't you ever call me that again, bastard..." and pushed her way through into the bathroom.
Jay waited for Kim to come out, he wanted to talk with her and make her come back to work for him again.
after about 5 minutes she came out, and Jay grabbed her arm, "I'm not done talking with you."
She pulled free, "But i'm done talking with you." and begin to walk back to the dinning area.
Jay again grabbed on her arm..."Listen, I'm sorry. I really need the blue print of the project. I would really help if you come back."
she pulled her arm free again, "Sorry. I'm leaving to go home soon. I'm pretty sure you heard from my friends, that i'm going back to the farm."
"Will, I won't let you."
"What are you going to do?"
"Whatever I can to make you miss your bus or train or airplane or whatever you are taking home."
"screw you." replied Kim... "Will see about that...I'm hungry and my friends are waiting so i hope not to see you again, mister Jay." and walked away.
