3. Beautiful Nightmare

Yibo POV

"Yibo? Yibo!" I jumped, nearly spilling my coffee all over the desk and myself. "God! Abby! You nearly gave me a heart attack," I glared at her. I loved Abby; She was nice, a little obnoxious but an overall good friend.

"Sorry, what's up with you today? You seem miles away and you look a little tired" she said, examining my face.

"Its nothing, just had a rough night" I said, I couldn't shake the dream I had last night. I was jogging in the street when all of a sudden a guy was jogging right behind me. I couldn't see his face because he was wearing a black hoodie. I tried to not panic or let paranoia get the best of me, but when he made every turn I did, I broke off on a sprint and he mimicked me. I was just around the corner to my apartment when I tripped and fell, but before I could scream for help, I woke up with a gasp...

"You know what would do you a world of good? Lunch, come on my treat" Abby chimed; I envied her enthusiasm.

"I don't know Abby, I still got a lot to do and..." she started closing my laptop and files, all I could do was stare at her in shock "What are you doing?"

"I'm not taking no for an answer boy!" she tugged at my arm "You work too much, now come on!"

"Okay, no need to push me" I mumbled, grabbing my bag. We headed to a nearby restaurant,

"You know all work and no play makes Yibo a very dull boy," Abby said, while munching on a burger. I don't know where she puts all the food she eats, she was so tiny. I was not a health freak but she overdoes it sometimes.

"Hey I know how to have fun, okay?" I said stubbornly

She rolled her eyes "You call reading books and listening to music fun?" she waved her fork in the air "What about parties and boys?". "I'm not a party boy Abby," I said, nor will I ever be...

"Okay maybe not a party animal, but what about boys huh?" she rose her eyebrows "When was the last time you had a date?" "What's that got to do with anything?" I tried to keep the annoyance out of my voice. Since the day she got to know that I am in men, she bothers me like this.

"Everything!" she sighed, "look Yibo, you're 24 and hot as hell, it's a crime that you're still single. You need to get out more and start having some fun." She said, her voice surprised me; Abby was hardly the serious one so when she was it shocked me.

I knew her heart was in the right place, but I couldn't find it in myself to enter the dating scene again. The last guy I was with cheated on me with my best friend for God's sake;

After catching  Jackson in bed with Nana, I couldn't even gather enough strength to scream at them for betraying me. I just wanted to run and keep running. So I managed to whisper "its over" to Jackson, who looked more shocked than I was. Before I turned I looked at Nana, whatever she saw in my eyes made her flinch.
