This kind of thing should be told to the minister at the first time, because he is your immediate superior. It is disrespectful to bypass him and tell the boss directly.
You can explain the reason directly to the minister. There are two situations. First, he can make a direct decision and approve you to go home. Second: he can't sit on the top. Either he asks the boss or he asks you to talk to him. At this time, you can go directly to the boss.
I wish the landlord a successful leave! ! !
