Karma fiction, trust but not blindness.

Dharma fiction

🕊️ Story: "Trust... but not blind."

Episode: "Companion"

"Min" and "Orn" are close colleagues in advertising agencies. They have worked together for many years. Min trusted Orn to share everything - work ideas, customer contacts, and even promotion opportunities.

Until one day, the company offered the opportunity to compete for the promotion to head of the department. Min was fully determined, but before the submission day, Orn borrowed the file to see more, and Min submitted it without hesitation.

Three days later...

When the works were announced, everyone was shocked - because the works of "Orn" were like Min's in almost every sentence.

Min stood silent. Cold hands.

"You... my copy?"

Orn, "Sorry, Min... I just don't have time, and I really want this position."

The words were like a knife. Min didn't argue, didn't cry, but she chose to walk out of the room with the strongest silence.

Episode: "As Time Goes By"

Min left the company and started a new, smaller, but sincere team-mates, and she created a work of her own will until one day she was invited back to give a lecture at the old company she was in.

On that stage, she saw Orn sitting in the back row, a weak expression.

After the event, Orn approached her in tears.

"Min... I really want to apologize, and I was misled, and I thought I'd be happy, but in the end it wasn't worth it..."

Min smiles softly.

"It's okay, Orn, I forgive you, just remember - trust is precious, don't let anyone lose it because of greed."

The two keep eye contact as quietly as the lesson that time has taught rather than work - it teaches that.

"The people we should trust the most are not always good-talking, but those who do not betray, even if no one sees."

💫 Thoughts from the subject.

"Trust is as fragile as glass when broken and fixed, but never the same, so don't destroy it for a moment."
