The ESSENTIALS in Us

Sojourn

Sam Pov

We woke up when we heard loud banging. I realized I forgot to unlock the bedroom door. Saint ran to open the door.
Dan: What's wrong with u Saint, why did you lock me in there? ( While talking, I walked out to sit in the living room only to see Sam sitting there)
When did you come here?
Sam: I came here last night.
Dan: Why?
Sam : I don't think it matters to you (I eye rolled at him and got up to freshen )
Dan: Why did u lock the door, Saint ?
Saint: ( I don't know what to say)
Sam: I locked it, I didn't know u were there. I just have a habit of locking doors, so I didn't realize what I did.
Dan: Hmm ,ok
Saint:( I just love it when Sam defends me or stands up for me. It just makes me happy and more in love with him.)
Dan: ( We all moved to have breakfast. It seems like Sam is not in a hurry today. I thought this was the best time to have a conversation with him. )
Sam, aren't you getting late.
Sam: Now I have my meeting in the second half today . So I can leave a little bit late.
Dan: Oh, your life must be so busy
Sam: Hmm
Dan: R u single? Or do yo..
Saint:(my eyes widened. Wtf is wrong in Danny. From when he started being interested in men)
Sam: I am not single. Why r u asking?
Dan: Oh, I thought since u are busy with your schedule, you might be single. Anyway, who is the lucky girl?
Saint: Eat your food, Danny, before it gets cold.(I am getting irritated now)
Dan: Well, in case you need any help, you can always call me ,Sam.
Sam:Hmm,ok
(Danny looks like crackhead to me. I was watching Bunny's expression, and he was absolutely irritated with Danny. I wanted to laugh at his cute expression. )
Dan: Why r u smiling, Sam?
Sam: Danny, just eat ,you talk a lot.
(I reached my hand under the table and grabbed Saint's hand . He looked surprised and turned in my direction. I kept my head down and was eating with another hand. I looked up only to see Saint glowing in red ,blush covering his entire face . I so want to kiss him right here.)
Dan: Sam, do u have time?
Sam: Yeah , what is it?
Dan: Help us with our assignment. We can't understand certain topics.
Saint: We can do it, Danny. Sam, you should leave, you will get late ( what is he talking about. Of course we can do it. I don't wanna impose my work on Sam. He already has tons of things to deal with)
Sam: It's ok, Saint, I still have time. Let's finish it fast.
(We started doing the assignment. After 1 hour, I got a call.)
Rick: Hello Sam ?
Sam: Yeah , Rick, what is it?
Rick: Sam, where are you ?
Sam: I am on my way . What happened?
Rick: Did you consider getting yourself another personal assistant?
Sam: Yes, I did, Rick.
Rick: So when should we start interviewing them?
Sam: Rick, I need some time. Please!
Can we do it next weekend? I promise I won't exceed the date.
Rick: Well, ok then, get to the office right now. I KNOW U ARE NOT ON THE WAY, I'M NOT DUMB. Get to the office as soon as possible. We need to discuss things before the meeting starts.
Sam: I ...I..uhh ok fine.
Rick: As soon as possible means within 15 minutes Sam. Get late and you are going to the meeting alone.
Sam: What the Fcuk ,Rick!
Rick: And your 15 mins starts now.
Sam: RicK.... *fcuk she dropped the call*
Saint, I need to leave. I will help you guys later , I'm sorry. (I already know how Rick talks to Sam, I can guess she is threatening him again. Maybe he missed something again. )
Saint: it's ok, Sam. We are almost done with it, don't worry. Just go fast if you are getting late.
Danny: yeah dude thanks for the time. You should go now.
Sam: Bye, guys! ( I rushed outside towards my car)
Saint: Dan , I will go and lock the door. You can continue with the work.
Dan: ok
Saint: (I rushed outside fast to help Sam.I opened the main gate while he was taking his car out. He saw and rolled his window down.)
Sam: Thanks, Bunny *I smiled at him*
Saint : (Instead of replying, I bent forward and pecked him. Soon, he grabbed my face and stole my breath away. He was kissing me deeply. )
Saint: Sa..Samm.Sam uhhh.....u will
... ummm .... get late.
Sam: * I breathed out * fcuk, bye bunny.
(With that, we separated, and he drove away.)

Saint POV
I went inside to continue the work.
Dan: Let's complete this . I think we can complete it by today only.
Saint: Yeah, it's almost done.
Dan: Well, all thanks to Sam. We don't have to struggle much or do research with the topics.
Saint: Hmm
(After 3 hours, we completed our work)

Dan: fcuk finally . Bro, we already did it. We have an entire Sunday left to enjoy.
Do u wanna go to the bar today? we can party all night today and sleep the entire day tomorrow.
Saint: No, I don't feel like drinking
Dan: Meh , I will ask others then.
Saint: Hmm
Dan: Should I ask Sam?
Saint: NO
Dan: Why? He is hot, and we can enjoy , u know , I winked at him*
Saint: First, he is busy. Second, he ain't in you. Third, he doesn't drink.

Dan: Yeah, you are right. I can see how much he loves his girlfriend. Just one call from her, and he ran away. What a smitten guy. Hope I can meet her too. She must be beautiful. Have you met her?
Saint: I....No I haven't.
Dan : I like her name, tho, Rick. I bet Sam is like a sugar daddy to her.
Saint: Why do u think so? ( so he is also thinking Rick is his girlfriend. At this point, I wonder if should I tell him that I'm his boyfriend. )
Dan: Sam is filthy rich. Anyone would be after his money , duh!
Saint: Danny, you are making stupid assumptions.
Dan: Look, Saint, I get Sam is hot and all, but think about it . He is the most admired bachelor cause he has money. Everyone around him loves him for his money.
Saint: (I feel like strangling Dan right now.)
You do realize that when you say everyone, we also come in that category.
Dan: Of course, baby, I would love to have a sugar daddy like him any day. Won't you?
Saint: No, I like him as a person, not because of his money. I like him cause he has manners and behaves nicely to me. So stop saying non-sense Danny. Don't become a shallow person.
Dan: Saint ,chill buddy. I was just joking. Why are you so mad at me?
Saint: Nothing, leave it. I think you should carry on with your night out plan.
Dan: Hey, Saint, I'm sorry I was just joking about it. I know he is a nice guy, and I can see how well he is doing even without having parents. He is really hardworking. People can hardly ever reach that success without parents.
Saint: What do you mean without parents?
Dan: Don't you know about his parents ?( I'm surprised)
Saint: Will I ask if I know,idiot!
Dan: Well, he is an orphan
Saint:*I gasped *
Dan: Did he never tell you?
Saint: I never asked .
Dan: Oh, that makes sense.
Ok, I'll pack up and take my leave now. You take care.
Saint: Hmm ( I proceeded to clean my room. It was evening, and I was watching netflix as I took off from my work today. What Danny told me was bugging me. I tried to ignore it.)
