But if God forbid, fate should step in
And force us into a goodbye
If you have children someday
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name

Lev Night
29 December

I was quietly eating my pancakes for breakfast with my parents who were just ignoring each other's existence

I hear a throat clear but I didn't look up from my pancakes, I just love pushing their buttons. "Lev!" I looked up with a questioning look 

Dad started "you know we never force you to do anything right?" 

Bullshit

But I still nodded

"Well you see the Yong's are holding a New Years Eve party and we want you to attend it with us" dad folded his fingers on the table like he was making a business deal

"No way!" 

"Keep your voice down"

Again. Bullshit

"But I don't want to go! Amelia keeps following me like a lost dinosaur!" She wasn't even a cute puppy

"We allowed you to ditch on the Christmas party but you have to come. there are some of my business partners who want to meet the next heir of the Night empire"

I roll my eyes. I was planning on spending my New Year with karlissa (who I've finally come to realize that I really like, as in a serious relationship 'like') and maybe at midnight I could grow a pair and tell her about my feelings. I know it's really early as I met her 2 days ago but if there's one thing you should know about me, I don't like beating around the bush and I hate bottling up my feelings. And if she doesn't return the feelings (which is an 87% chance she won't) I am willing to wait for her as long as she needs. 

I snap out of my thoughts and look at my parent's expression and knew there wasn't a way out if this

"Can I bring a date?" Hopefully, I can still have fun with Karlissa. Plus it will make Amelia fuck off

"I suppose. But please bring someone with class" dad sneers

I happily get up and walk to my room to call Karlissa and ask her, besides I haven't talked to her all day.

It is only 9 am 

But still.....

Yesterday me and Karlissa had some lunch and then she dragged me to go shopping. I actually enjoyed it for the first 3 hrs but then I started getting tired. Plus I took a million photos of her for her Instagram. I enjoyed that at first too as it made me realize how beautiful she is but then I started dreading it after the 108th photos
