Hi guys sorry for the late update but AP exams are here and i'm buy but i'll try to post another one this week, enjoy and let me know what you think!
I wake up in the morning and immediately turn around to look for soryu but he's not there and it looks like he's been gone for a while and i can't help but feel disappointed.i get out of bed and into the shower, i let the warm water wash over me, i get out of the shower after shampooing and conditioning my hair and start drying myself and i don't fail to notice that there are extra towels in the bathroom, it must be soryu's doing.
"Damn it, why am i so hairy? I just waxed two weeks ago" i say to myself, my mother was middle eastern and my father is italian so no wonder i'm hairy but my sisters are the exact opposite of me and boy are they lucky, it's the one thing i envy about them. I get dressed in a high waisted white pencil skirt and a tight white lace crop top with long lacy sleeves, and i make sure to have a white tank top underneath so is not seethrough , i wear white heels to complete my outfit, i never put this much thought into what i wear but i guess i really want soryu to like how i look i guess,i cannot believe this is what it's come down to. I do a natural makeup look and put my hair in a loose side fishtail braid.
I go downstairs and everyone is sitting in the lounge, i take in a deep breath and start walking down the stairs slowly and i can feel everyone's eyes on me, i look up and everyone is looking at me except the person i want to, soryu is reading his newspaper without even glancing my way, well that's disappointing but he's probably still mad at me because of the little show i put on last night. I walk towards an empty seat beside luke and sit down.
"You look nice, is there a special occasion?" ota ask me
"Yes i'm meeting with someone id like to impress" i say back to ota hoping that this will catch soryu's attention but he doesn't even blink, ugh come on! He's totally giving me the silent treatment.
"Oh? And who might this person be? He must be important for you to put this much effort into looking your best" eisuke asks with his usual smirk plastered on his face.
"I always look good eisuke, wouldn't you agree?" i asks him seductively and wink at him, but even me flirting with eisuke doesn't get soryu's attention.
"Yes i agree, i believe soryu was extremely lucky in the whole arranged marriage process, most men aren't as lucky and they end up with someone like carolina" carolina? How does he know her?
"How do you know her?" i ask eisuke
"I'm trying to make a deal with her dad and i'm stuck with her until the deal is over" he says annoyed
"Hahaha i imagine she has a crush on you?" i ask and i keep laughing
"It's not funny woman! And yes of course she has a crush on me i mean who wouldn't? Just look at me" he says confidently and i look him up and down like i'm evaluating him
"I am looking, and i gotta say i'm not a big fan and i definitely do not have a crush on you" i say and i laugh and he looks pissed, i don't miss when soryu stop reading the newspaper for a second then continues reading again.
"Whatever, so you didn't say who you're meeting with?" he asks again
"I'm meeting with Dr. Ali Omar, he's one of the best surgeons in the world and he agreed to let me join him on an open heart surgery and take notes if this meeting goes well, and now i need to go over some of my notes just incase he asks me hard questions, oh that reminds me umm would it be okay if i asked you a few questions about open heart surgery?" i ask luke who is sitting beside me
"Oh of course,I actually just did one last week" he says as he takes my laptop from me and starts scrolling through my notes and he starts asking me questions on surgical procedures and i try my best to answer all of them, we do this for an hour until i have to get going so i won't be late to my meeting.
"Thank you luke, i have to get going now" I say as I get up and go to the nearest mirror to check myself out and make sure my makeup is okay.
"You must really want this guy to like you, don't worry you look decent" eisuke says with a smirk
"No, I look great, decent would be how you look eisuke and let's not compare because I would obviously win that game" I say and I wink and I can see him get frustrated and he just glares at me
"I think soryu needs to put you in your place and teach you how. To behave like a good woman" he says knowing that sexist comments like that annoys me to not point.
"Awe, how cute! I Like how you think soryu or any man could control me or my actions. if I hear one more sexist comment from any of you I will personally cut your penis off and sell it at the auction, after all that is what makes you a man right?" I ask as I look at each and every one of them and glare at eisuke
"Umm… Somehow I don't think the kid is joking, I'd keep my comments to myself If I we're you eisuke" mamo says while puffing on his cigarette.
"Stop smoking indoors for god's sake kishi" I say as I bend down to grab my laptop and put it in my bag
"Jeez kid, can't you let a man enjoy a smoke? I feel bad for soryu" soryu looks up when his name is mentioned and he looks at me and i hold eye contact and neither of us can pull back
"Well soryu will thank me later when he's 80 and still healthy and also when we have many healthy children because you know smoking and drinking lowers your sperm count and also the baby will have a lower IQ" I say and I finally break eye contact with soryu but he is still staring at me and it's making me feel self conscious so I try to wrap it up and leave
"Okay well I'm gonna go and you're welcome for the educational information I just gave all of you" I start to leave but soryu calls out my name and I stop in my tracks and turn around, I hope he's gonna say he will take me there because I really don't want him to give me the silence treatment like he has been all morning.
"Yes soryu?" He looks at me for a second and he look like he's debating on what to say next
"Take one of the bodyguards with you, I don't want you getting in trouble because I'm busy today so I don't have time to get you out of trouble" he says with a cold voice and goes back to reading his newspaper, okay ouch that hurt but really, what else was I expecting?i gave his best friend a dirty lap dance in front of everyone, I mean I'd be pissed too especially since this is kind of shamed upon in his culture
"I don't need a bodyguard" I say stubbornly
"I don't have time to argue with you woman, take the bodyguard and don't cause any trouble" he says
"Fine" I say back but since he's annoying me I decide to annoy him back
"Hey Luke, you know you can come with me if you want to, I'm sure wouldn't mind and plus it would be much more fun than going alone" I say and I smile sweetly at him
"I would love t-" he is cut off by soryu's annoyed voice
"Foster is busy today" he says
"Doing what?" Luke and I ask at the same time and soryu looks flustered, he probably doesn't have an answer and he's been caught
"Auction related stuff" he finally says
"Fine, I'm going to be late tonight and I'll let the guard know so you don't have to wait up, I'll let myself in" I say and before he can say anything else I leave the lounge and get into the elevator
"I hope this goes well" because the one good thing in my life is my career right now so I should focus on that plus it takes my mind off of soryu and god knows how much I need that.
when i step out of the hotel im suddenly pulled back by someone and when i turn around to see who it is,a bag is thrown over my head and thrown over someones showlder, i kick and scream but non of that helped and a minute later i was thrown to the ground and then i heard the engine of a car starting.
