83: Self-Doubt

"Hurry get in", Taeyong exclaimed the moment he arrived. The three then quickly got in and as soon as they were settled, Taeyong sped through the streets yet again but this time, a little bit faster. "Exact details of the retreat please", Taeyong said with eyes focused on the road. "Here", Jae-seong said handing the letter of consent to Taeyong.
"I already scheduled an appointment with the CEO earlier. All you have to do is wait. He will most probably agree and will talk to you later on in the day", Taeyong said. "How are you so sure that he will allow us to join", Lucas asked. "Just because", Taeyong chuckled. "Whatever you say", Ten said. 
Jae-seong just looked at Taeyong with uncertainty but nonetheless went along with his plan thinking about she has no other choice but to trust him. Besides, he’s already proven his power multiple times already.
"You have 10 more minutes to get to training", Taeyong said as he parked his car. "Thanks for the ride", Jae-seong exclaimed before getting off the car and rushing towards the building. Taeyong just sighed as he stayed in his car a little bit longer.
He then pulled out the letter of consent that Jae-seong gave him and read through the details. "Why am I even doing this still", Taeyong muttered asking himself. "Why does she even have that strong effect on me", Taeyong continued asking himself placing his head on the steering wheel. "How pathetic", he heard a voice say.
He immediately shot his head up and looked at the passenger seat only to see Jae-seong sitting there. "W-wha- how", Taeyong asked stuttering. "You were so sure that you will do anything for me, right? Why are you acting like this now", Jae-seong asked. "Don't you have training? And how did you get in all of a sudden", Taeyong asked horrified of what just happened.
"Perhaps I am just a product of your imagination, but that's not the issue here", Jae-seong said moving closer towards Taeyong. "H-hey! W-wha-", Taeyong exclaimed stuttering leaning back. "Why are you doubting yourself now Yongie? I thought your love always exceeds great heights for me? Why is it that you are having second thoughts now? Don't you love me enough", Jae-seong kept asking getting closer and closer making Taeyong lean on the window shutting his eyes until it went silent.
Once he was sure that it's clear, he opened his eyes revealing an empty passenger seat. "What the hell just happened", Taeyong muttered again. Taeyong then took a look outside and sighed. "But she's right", he continued. "Why am I doubting myself if I swore I that my love would surpass even the heavens", Taeyong said holding unto the steering wheel tightly. 
"Lee Taeyong! Get yourself together! We have a meeting to attend to", Taeyong exclaimed pulling himself together and going through the details again. "It's now or never Yongie", he muttered before stepping out of his car. "I will do this for you Jae", Taeyong whispered as he walked into the building. 
"I have an appointment with the CEO", Taeyong casually said to the lady at the reception. "Oh yes Mr. Lee Taeyong. Please proceed to his office. I assume you already know where", the lady answered pointing at the elevator. "Thank you", Taeyong responded before proceeding to the elevator. 
As the doors of the elevator opened, he hopped in still with doubts running through his mind. "Should I really be doing this", he again asked himself. "Here I go again", he continued scratching his nape. "This is useless", he said covering his eyes in frustration. "Just so pathetic", he heard Jae-seong's voice again. 
"Get out my head", Taeyong whispered as he repeatedly hit the side of his head. "I'm actually surprised how you act upon your emotions", imaginary Jae-seong continued. "Why do you always give off a strong and unbothered image when you know so well that you're a big softie", imaginary Jae-seong said which made Taeyong closed his eyes and covered his ears.
Not long after, the elevator ringed as Taeyoong reached his floor. He opened his eyes and removed his hands from his ears just before the doors of the elevator opened. He lifted his chin up and proceeded to walk to the CEO's office. The very moment he reached his door, he stood there with hands shaking. He then took deep breaths and made the 'now or never move' opening the door after knocking three times.
"Taeyong! How you been", he greeted Taeyong the moment he stepped inside his office. "Great actually", Taeyong answered as he nervously laughed. "So, what is it that you wanted to talk about", he asked as Taeyong took a seat. "Well, it's about some of your new trainees", Taeyong said starting off the topic. "Who? And what about them", he now asked.
