AKARI WOKE up with a hell of a headache.
She hauled herself up to sit on the soft mattress and leaned her back against the headboard of the bed. Her blue eyes wandered cautiously across her surroundings and recognized her own bedroom, much to her relief. She thought she stayed the night in another household just like she usually does whenever she accidentally fell asleep somewhere, a bad habit she practiced ever since she was a kid. Izana would always be the unlucky one to piggyback her sleepy butt way back to either her apartment or his.
How did she end up in her room again?
She tried to recollect all her memories from yesterday's events.
Mikey's birthday.
The king's game.
Getting drunk.
Izana's call.
The outburst.
Her headache dissipated quite immediately. She took in a sharp breath once she recalled her own foolishness. Her entire face became aghast, completely petrified.
Holy shit.
Yesterday was a total disaster!
"NO!!!"
She instantly hid underneath the blanket as if it was her only salvation and curled her body into a ball. She was quivering in mortification while hugging herself. What kind of idiocy had she fucking done? How on earth will she rectify her stupidity?!?
She flinched as she heard her phone vibrate on top of the nightstand. She hastily grabbed her gadget to see who messaged her. It was Izana.
My Arrogant King❤️: Is my queen already sober up?
"PLEASE DON'T BREAK UP WITH MEE!!!"
Akari felt her cheeks burning up as she could still remember every single word she had told him yesterday. The memory was as fresh as her aunt's favorite morning glories in the backyard. What she did was so damn embarrassing! She typed him a reply.
Me: I think I want to disappear right now! 😭😭😭
My Arrogant King❤️: Heh. Thought so. I'm already expecting you to say that. You were really hilarious yesterday, Akari. I can't even put it into words. Haha.
Me: Shut up, you jerk! Don't make me remember the humiliation! 😭😭😭
My Arrogant King❤️: How ironic. I actually admire your boldness. Oh, and I can't wait to receive those kisses from you. Don't forget your promise, alright babe? ❤️
"..."
Akari was at a loss for words.
She aggressively scratched her bed hair. Aaaargh! The audacity of this pompous asshole!
