Chapter Two : Mason

For some odd reason, Mason felt like taking a small walk to clear his mind off of work and personal affairs.

Putting a mask and cap on, he left the building through the private parking lot. "I don't know what the **** I was thinking when I accepted him, I knew I neither loved nor cared for him, he was nothing to me..." He sighed and walked further.

For once in a long time, he felt human, he didn't feel any pressure at all. He was... free. As people bumped into him -- rushing to their destination, he felt a sense of relief.

"No one knows me nor recognises me." He thought. "It feels so good." He actually master up a tiny smile, but even if he were to take his mask off, it wouldn't be noticed.

Walking back, he decided to go through the entrance. His journey to the doors was cut short when he saw him -- he was struggling to breathe, he staggered in all directions, until his tiny body fell to the floor.

People surrounded his tiny body, not even trying to help him. "Bunny?" He murmured, his hand letting go of the double doors as his world was in slow motion mode, he felt like he was moving slow -- which irritated him.

"What did you do to yourself?" He looked down at the boy In his arms. "You're burning up." He said softly, his heart shattering as the tiny thing in his arms frowned in pain, whilst struggling to breathe.

After entering a taxi, he shouted the driver's ears off. "Make it quick! Or I'll make sure you lose your job!"

When they got to the hospital, he quickly ran towards the large see through doors. "Help!" He shouted, feeling helpless.

"Make it quick!" He shouted, getting frustrated at how slow they were.

.........

Waking up, he felt drained, looking around the room only to notice that it wasn't his. "What... the..." It finally registered that he was in a hospital.

"Damn! Looks like I've lost the job." He sighed. "Homeless is what I'll be next week. At least if I had the job, I would coerce him into agreeing for a late payment." He shook his head. "I should have..." Tyler was interrupted mid sentence.

"Someone might think you're crazy if you keep on talking to yourself." Mason said, making the tiny boy let out a squeak.

"Uhm... y-you are?" Taylor stuttered out his question, unknowingly to him, his question had bruised Mason's ego.

"Your new boss." Mason said through gritted teeth, his fists clenching in the pockets of his navy blue suit pants -- because the only person he has ever cares about doesn't even remember him.

"B-boss?" Tyler looked at him with hopeful eyes. "Is this... a prank?" He asked, his eyes sparkling.

"You start next tomorrow. Be at the office, eight a.m sharp. Other details will be sent to your email." Mason said through gritted teeth and walked towards the door, only to give Tyler a side glance. "Take care of your health Mr. Miller, we wouldn't want to bring you here every single day, due to fatigue --  would we?" Tyler gulped but nodded at the question.

"Yes Si-" Before he could finish, the man was gone. "Rude." He whispered, then grinned. "I got the job! Yeah!" He fist pumped the air.
