~To Be Together~
New awoke upon hearing his alarm blaring from his phone.
He turned to the matching night stand beside his bed to turn off the alarm. As he turned it off, he saw the time on his phone that read "7:30 AM”.
"Why is this thing going off this early?" New stared at his phone with a scowl on his face. Then it hit him!
Gasping, he quickly jumped off his bed, straight to his bathroom. Once he was inside, he jumped into the shower, to prepare for the day.
20 minutes later, New walked out of his bathroom, with a content look on his face.
He was trying to contain his excitement, for the day that was ahead of him.
"Oh shit! What the hell am I going to wear?" New's content expression was suddenly replaced with one of worry. He didn't know what to wear. New rushed into his master walk-in wardrobe, looking at different clothing material, trying to come up with a decent outfit.
He grabbed his phone to call Nat, when he saw a message.
Phi Zee:
Good morning Nu. I can’t wait to spend time with you. When and where should we meet? I can come and pick you up?
New immediately was blushing, smiling from ear to ear as he read the message over and over again. He still couldn’t believe what was happening. It felt like a dream.
New quickly typed on his keypad, sending a response to Zee. Then he quickly abandons his excitement to call Nat for wardrobe advice.
“Meung, I need help! I don’t know what to wear.” New immediately yelled out to his friend when he picked up.
“Ai’New, do you know what time it is? I am still sleeping.” Nat groggily voiced out, indicating that he did not appreciate being woken up from slumber. He completely ignored his friend’s cry out for help, stating that his precious sleep was ruined.
“There is no time for that. I literally do not know what to wear. Please help me. I’ll Facetime you.” New ended the call, pressing the Facetime button and waiting for Nat’s face to appear. Nat’s puffy face immediately appeared on the screen, his eyes still closed.
“Ai’Nat, please! I need help. I promise, if you help me pick out an outfit, I’ll buy you food for a whole week.” New pleaded, using food as a bargaining chip.
Nat deeply sighed as we knew he couldn’t resist such an offer.
“Fine, but make it a whole month.” Nat negotiated, making New smile. He knew his friend too well. They were both foodies.
“Thanks meung. So, what do you think I should wear? Should I go casual or chic?” New swapped his camera around to show the outfits to Nat.
“Or should I wear something more smart casual, as this will be our first official outing as future business partners.” New added, feeling unsure.
“Ohh partners. Gosh you move quick.” Nat jokingly teased, sounding more wide awake.
“Nat” New cutely whined to his friend, indicating that he was not helping.
Nat laughed, loving this time he could have to tease his friend.
“Ok. I’m serious now! Well, I think smart casual would make it feel like you guys are going to have a business meeting. Which you are not. He himself said that it’s a date. So no to smart casual. I think you should go casual, but cute casual.” Nat replied his opinion to the matter, which made New smile, because he was thinking the same thing.
“Ok, so cute casual it is.” New turned to the outfit to show Nat.
“Oh that one. Yes! It’s cute.” Nat enthusiastically agreed on the outfit.
New turned the camera back to him, to speak to Nat.
“Thanks meung. I’m really freaking out, but I’m also very excited. I wish you could come with me.” New biting his lower lip, showing his nervousness.
“Hey, you’ll be alright. Just go and have fun. Get to know each other, and just talk.” Nat could see how nervous New was. He’d wish to go and support his friend as well, but he knew that wasn’t the right thing to do. Nat was certain his friend would be amazing.
“And you have to tell me everything when you get back. Every single detail.” Nat’s face was so close to the screen, the pores on his nose were visible.
New giggled at this friend’s antics, feeling most of his nerves and anxiety fading away. He took a deep breath, finding new determination as he let it out. He was going to go and enjoy his time with Zee, and make memories.
“Rak na. Thank you for always making me feel better.” New smiled, grateful for his friend.
“I know, I’m the best.” Nat replied with a cheeky grin. “Rak na. Take a photo of you in the fit before you go.” Nat said, before hanging up.
(New’s POV)
After that phone call with Nat, my nerves seemed to settle. I will be forever grateful for his friendship. I grabbed the outfit and stood in front of the full length mirror to see if it looked good from every angle. It’s an outfit from Maison Margiela, the light blue spliced shirt and vest with matching pants and shoes. It’s perfect. I laid the outfit on the bed, then I sat down in front of my vanity makeup mirror to do a very light makeup do and to style my hair.
I changed into the outfit, then I added a few accessories. I put on my gold Chanel CC pendant necklace, with matching earrings. I added my Neo Vintage GG-logo coated-canvas and leather bag, the family ring and finished the look with my Gucci Havana and Green sunglasses. I looked in the mirror, satisfied with the results as I did a full 360 turn. I quickly took a photo and sent it to Nat, as promised, then checked the time on my phone which read “8:55 AM”.
Just then my phone started to ring, showing the caller ID. I nervously looked at my phone, willing myself not to answer right away.
1.
2.

“Hello.” I said.
“Hello, Nu. Are you ready? I’m on my way to your house to pick you up.” Just hearing his voice, I felt like my feet were floating on air. How could someone's voice sound so good?
"Nu? Are you still there?" I quickly brought back my attention to the man on the other side of the phone. Geez! I need to contain myself.
"I'm sorry Phi Zee. I am ready and will be waiting for you." I quickly answered, feeling heat rush to my face.
"Oh, that's great. Well I guess I'll see you soon then" I could hear him smiling.
"I'll see you soon then" I replied, smiling even more.
