"Apa," I called out. "No," he replied. "You can't possibly expect me to be home all day," I whined. "Then you can come to the law firm with your mom and me," he suggested. "You haven't let me come to the firm since I graduated," I told him. "You have visited the firm multiple times and I know you can remember," HE said. "I have plans, I can't go to the firm and I can't be at home," I explained to Dad.

"You will have to cancel those plans, your only options are to come to the firm or stay at home," he said. "Why?" I asked him. "I will not be stating my reasons to you," He said. "Fine, I will come to the firm" I agreed. "We can't wait for you, get dressed and your driver will bring you to the firm," he said. I nodded and went back to my room.

    "Don't you want a very expensive piece you could sell off of when the contract is over?" I asked him. "You aren't very convincing," he said. "Just go in, will you?" I pleaded and pushed him past the racks of clothes. I turned to a chair and sat on it. "Mei," I heard my name and froze, that was Dad, 'I needed to get out of here'. "Mei," Dad yelled. "Mei," He called out again. "Appa, I said and stood up. I walked towards the entrance and let Dad follow me out of the building. "Appa," I said. "Mei Xing, why are you here?" he asked me. "What do you mean? I can go anywhere I want to," I said. "This is a men's store and I asked you to be at the firm not here," He said. "I was left alone with nothing to do, I thought that was you telling me that I was no longer needed," I said. "Now I am here to take you back to the firm," He said. "Am I needed?" I asked. "You'll find out when we get to the firm," He said ad pulled my hand. "Wait," I protested and he let me go. "What?" He asked. "How did

    "Don't tell me to shut up," I said immediately he removed his dinger from my lips. "Come on," He groaned. "What do you want?" He asked me. "Let me see your wedding suit," I said. "Miss, I need to tell you something," My driver said. "Please, can you hold on a minute?" I pleaded and turned to MIn JUn. "Why won't you show me your suit? It's just a suit," I grumbled. "It's just a suit, you do not have to see it," He said. "Come on," I whined. "Why do you want to see it so badly?" he asked me. "You showed me all other styles, why can't I see this one?" I asked him. "Why do you want to see it?" He asked me. I shrugged and kept quiet. "Fine, I will show you on one condition," He negotiated. "What?" I asked him. "You let me see your wedding dress," He said. "No, it's bad luck for the groom to see the bride's dress before the wedding," I murmured. "Well I guess you can't see my suit either," He said. I reached out to grab the bag to see the suit but he held it away from me. "Let me see," I

    Why did it feel like I was falling? "Mei Mei," Mom whispered, Why was she whispering? I could feel her tapping me and whispering my name but I didn't hear what she was saying, she seemed so distant, I tried to tell her I couldn't hear her but I couldn't hear my voice. I closed my eyes and let the darkness engulf me. I opened my eyes and immediately shut them, I opened them again and let my eyes adjust to the room's brightness. I blinked fully comfortable with the room and noticed Mom, Dad, and Min Jun were staring at me. "Ama," I whispered. I looked around the room and realized I was in bed, in the hospital. "How did I get here? The last thing I remember was trying to open the door to Mom's office but she called my name and now I am here in a bed, in a hospital. "Mei, you're awake," Mom whispered. Dad and Min Jun turned to me ad they smiled. "Why are you whispering?" I asked. "I don't want to disturb you" she answered. "why am I here?" I asked staring at Min JUn wondering how they

    "Are you really about to cry?" He asked me. I kept quiet still hurt by his words, they were true but he didn't have to say them, he didn't have to be so blunt. "Come on Mei, grow up, this is the real world and this is how it works. The real world isn't your mansion where you are overprotected by your parents and in the real world, the world doesn't revolve around you, not everyone cares," he added. I stared at him and more tears rolled down my face. I tapped the emergency button and ripped out the cannula hub from my hand. "Oww," I screamed in pain, I didn't think that through and I didn't think about how much it was going to hurt. "Mei," Min Jun called out and rushed to my side but I wouldn't let him touch me or my bleeding hand. Nurses rushed into the room and looked so confused. One of them ran to me and started attending to my wounds while another went to get a doctor. "What happened?" she asked while trying to control the blood. "I don't know, one moment I was talking to her,

    Immediately his lips met with my forehead I froze and my face got hot, I know my face must be as red as a cherry. "Should I apologize?" Min Jun asked. "Do you regret it?" I asked covering my face again with the pillow. "You know I already saw your cherry-red face and no I do not regret it. It was just a forehead kiss, what's there to regret?" He asked and pulled the pillow away. "Stop messing with my pillow," I said and pulled it from him. I covered my face again but this time I hugged the pillow so he wouldn't be able to pull it away so easily. "I guess there's nothing to regret, it was simply a kiss to the forehead, it's just something only my parents do, it's not that significant," I blabbed into my pillow. "I can't hear you with the pillow pressed against your face and isn't that suffocating?" He asked tugging the pillow. I let the pillow go and looked at him. "Why are you acting like you care? And just ignore my blabbing," I said. "I don't want to ignore it but I know you won't

    We arrived at the mansion and Mom left for the firm while Dad remained home. Aren't you going to the firm?" I asked him. "Are you chasing me from my own home?" he asked me. "No, I am just concerned, it is 2 pm and Mom left a while ago," I told him. "Are you chasing me from my house?" He asked again. "No, I am just worried," I said. "It is not your duty to worry about your parents," He told me. "What about the firm?" I asked. "Your mom is there to run its affairs while I am home," He answered. "Aren't you needed?" I asked him. "Your mom is there, the firm is in capable hands. She can run the firm without my help," He said. "Oh, that's great," I said. "Will that be all?" he asked me. "Yes," I paused and asked a question. "Are you going to your room?". "Is there a problem?" He asked me and I shook my head. "No I am not going to my room, I am going to be here in the living room all day," He said. "So you aren't going to the firm?" I asked him. "Lunch should be ready, go and eat and stop

    I watched as the bedsheet slowly came undone and it slowly untangled from the bars of the balcony, I screamed preparing for a very painful fall while Min Jun screamed my name. I landed on my butt with a very slight thud and it barely hurt. "Oh," I said and snickered. "Are you hurt?" Min Jun asked concerned. "Do I sound hurt?" I asked him. "With that attitude, I'm guessing you aren't," he said. "Yes, it was just a light thud, my butt hurts, but just a little," I said and rubbed my ass. "Your character should be rubbing off on me and not you being like me," he said. "Ever seen a god apple make a rotten apple good?" I asked him. He changed the topic and avoided the question. "How high was the fall?" He asked me. I laughed before I told him it was about 4 feet. "Are you serious, I thought it was higher," He groaned and I heard a slap. He probably face-palmed himself disappointed. "From my view, it looked so high and scary," I explained. "Definitely so high," He said sarcastically. "Wh

    The rings were amazing. "I have pretty good taste," I joked and collected the ring box. "Yes, you do. Although it's expensive too," he said. "I only have a life to live so I am going to enjoy it," I replied. "Do you want to try on the rings?" he asked me. "Nope, I'll wait till our wedding," I said. "I guess we are almost done with all our appointments, we only need to go see the venue and get married," he said. "Yeah, and I need to get the invitation cards and give a few to you," I reminded myself. "I hope that won't cost a lot of money too?" He asked me. "Why are you asking?" I asked still admiring the rings. "Because your parents won't provide you with money, you don't have a job and you haven't paid me for agreeing to this contract," he pointed out. "You just had to spoil the beautiful moment," I said annoyed at his words. I closed the ring box and placed it beside my phone.

    It has been a year since Mei died and I was starting to get used to her not being around. Although today that I remembered that she would have been alive with the bay and I, it hurts. Our daughter is a year old and she looks so much like Mei. Her hair is really long, it already reached mid back. She’s shy and lives the rose bushes. It seems like she’s a reincarnation of her mother. She plays around at her house. She also loves the rose vase where Mei’s things are being held. They gave me the rings and the locket and buried her like that. I have my daughter the locket but the rings were stored in the rose. I would make sure to keep it somewhere safe and away from Mei. It’s too precious to get lost. “Mei,” I called out to her. She ran down the stairs, stood in front of me and smiled. She was still wobbly and I always warned her not run down the stairs. She started walking three months ago and now she thinks running down the stairs is such an easy task. “Mei, I keep telling you to

    Maybe I should have told her to save her breath, I shouldn’t have let her tell me everything, but did I let her explain all her feelings? I know how she felt about me, she didn’t need to narrate our love story to me. She didn't need to tell me everything, but I sat down and listened for hours while she said everything. I felt like the worst person on earth as I watched her lay on the bed breathless and lifeless. She used to have so much life, so much joy, she was always so beautiful. I had the best thing ever but like everything else she was taken away from me. I tapped the call button immediately she closed her eyes but there was nothing they could do. I watched the doctors run around me and I just drifted from the space and went back into the time when it was just me and her. The first day I met her when she asked me to marry her. I was surprised by her confidence and it scared me. I loved how persistent she was and kept chasing me until I was signed to a contract that brought me

    The next morning, I woke up with the same pain that was now familiar but it hurt more. it felt harder to talk, to come up to words, my head was banging and I wanted it all to end, the pain, me. it was too much to handle. My radiotherapy was set for four and my drugs weren't helping to make me feel better. My head still hurt after taking two dosages of the pills. I stopped not wanting to overdose, although I already did. I was up before Mom, Dad, and Min and I couldn't sleep back although it was four am. I got out of bed and tried to come down from the bed. I lost my balance and before I fell, Min caught me. I smiled at him and fainted. When I woke up it was already afternoon and my radiotherapy session had been moved to the next day. I groaned when I found out. Can I get over the whole process already? It was starting to annoy me."Are you alright?" Min asked and I nodded. "My head hurts a little, it must have caused me to lose my balance," I explained to Min and he nodded. He touch

    I woke up and realized I was in the hospital. How did I end up here? The last thing I remembered, was hugging everyone goodbye, and Min and I were ready to go to bed. in smiled at me as I turned to look at him. He looked really stressed and tired. He looked like he hadn't slept in a long time. I touched the eye bags and frowned. He took my hand and kissed it. I looked and saw that I was connected to an IV drip. I never understood why we couldn't just drink all the contents but its name says it all; drip, there's only ever a drop every second, and it's so freaking slow. "What happened?" I asked Min. "you fainted and I rushed you here," he explained. I heard shuffling in the background and noticed my parents were also in the room. Everyone looked stressed like they hadn't slept all through the night. "I called your parents when I got here," Min informed me. "You didn't have to call them, I'll be fine," I tell him and try to clear my throat, the pain made it hard to talk but not as ha

    We returned to the condo the next day and decided we would move on Wednesday. Min had to be at the restaurant every day but he could take a break from Wednesday to Friday. The weekends were expected to be packed because the first day was a huge success and the men returned at six P.m. He had called me at least ten times today and each time he spent at least ten minutes talking to me. I kept asking if he didn't need to focus, and he said he had to and he was focusing on me. He was so cute and romantic and knew all the right words to say. He had come earlier to have dinner with me and had left the meal in the hands of his trusted chefs and the waiters that started working today. "Hey," I said when he walked in. “Hey baby, I missed you. Are you sure you don't want to come to the restaurant with me?" he asked me."What do you want me to do at the restaurant? I am not very cooking and I can't be a waiter, my baby wouldn't let me move around with that much ease," I told him. "Mei junior

    My parents left our apartment at ten p.m and I should have gone to bed but I wasn't sleepy and neither was Min. i decided it was best to open my gifts and decided to ask Min for help."Can you help me unbox my present?" Min shook his head refusing to help me. "But it's so stressful and I need your help," I whined and he looked at me. "Come on Min," I pleaded."Fine, but I won't unwrap the gifts with you, I'll just watch you and bring anything you need," he negotiated and I agreed to it. Min pulled the bean he had bought for me. We unwrapped all the gifts and they were so cute. They had bought me little baby things, most of the essentials I would be needing. There were napkins, blankets, a baby carrier and some few things.“See we don’t have to buy that many baby things,” I said to Min and he laughed.I picked up the last gifts which were my parents gift. It was paper and it was put in a brown envelope, there was no fancy design, just straight to the point. I opened the envelop and saw

    It seemed like my presence changed the atmosphere in the room because everyone turned in my direction and they looked surprised to see me there. I definitely wasn't dressed like them and I was a very pregnant woman. "Good afternoon," I greeted with a very wide grin."Who are you?" Someone asked. "The restaurant doesn't open until four," Someone else said. "Who left the front door open?"Another one asked. "You did, you were the last person outside," another said. "Oh," the door person asked. "Miss would you like to wait till the restaurant opens or are you going to return by four?" the curious one asked. "Oh! I am here for Min," I said feeling shy. "The owner?" The curious asked. "Yeah, he's my husband," I announced. I barely got to ask for him. again when I saw MIn walking in with his chef outfit. He looked so cute. Sorry handsome and all those masculine features. He looked at me shocked to see me here. "Hey," I said shyly. "Babe? What are you doing here?" he asked me. "I

    After my little announcement, everyone made a toast to Min and to the opening of his restaurant. He pulled me into him and drank from his glass. I smiled at him and he kissed my forehead. "You know Min steals all your brain cells with those forehead kisses right?" June asked and everybody laughed. "I actually feel smarter and more loved every time he kisses my forehead. are you sure he isn't just pouring his brain cells and love in my head?" I asked. "That's they get them all," June said. I loved June and how she made everywhere funnier when she had had a sip of her daily dose of coffee. She was standing in between my mom and dad and smiling at them. I could tell Dad was uncomfortable but he deserved the little torture for everything he has done to Min and I. Min might have let it slide by inviting Dad to my birthday but I'll need more than him coming here for me to forgive everything he's done. "Thank you all for the toasts and celebrating the restaurant but today's about m

    I remember telling Min my birthday date on his birthday, he had purposely not told me about his birthday, but I wanted him to know mine for it to be fair. I also barely got the chance to prepare or buy him a gift but I wasn't letting him do that to me, also Min makes the best surprises and they always blow my mind. He needed time for it to be more effective. I am also glad, I listened to my thoughts and told him earlier. He has been so busy, I doubt he has the time to do anything special for my birthday. If I hadn’t gotten the information from Cheng, I probably wouldn’t know Min’s birthday and that is wrong. I was going to give him the chance to feel this way so I told him about my birthday. I woke up feeling pumped about my birthday. I also spent all night praying that my hormones acted right. The last dinner on the roof was amazing but I ended up balling my eyes out for absolutely no reason. I had the best time after crying, but I wished I didn't have to cry. We watched a movie, a
