The ESSENTIALS in Us

Waiting....

Saint POV
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.

I was getting bored now. I made dinner and was excited. I was expecting Sam to come today, too. I already made dinner for him. Should I call him and ask?
I am glad that Danny left. We can have some alone time now. I was getting anxious about what to do next.
Fcuk it! I will just call him and see.
I called 3 times, but no one answered. I guess he is busy. I was feeling down and was not able to sleep.
It was around 12:15 a.m. that he called me.
Sam: Hi! Bunny
Saint: Hi
Sam: u called me? Sorry, I was busy and was not aware of the call.
Saint: Hmmm, no problem
Sam: So y did u call anything urgent? Did I wake u up?
Saint: uhhh... where r u right now
Sam: In office
Saint: it's weekend, your work is not complete? Is it that much?
Sam: No, no , I got assignments and college work, too. So I am doing it right now cause I hardly get any time on weedays.
Saint: Will u be coming today ?
Sam: I want to but...
Saint: Just come, na , I'll help u with the assignments. Please!
Sam: r u sure, I don't mi......
Saint: yes Sam come fast . I'm waiting. Bye ( I dropped the call before he can give me any excuse)

Sam Pov
Well, I think it will be more comfortable to do this work with Saint. I like his company. And I already miss him.
I drove towards his house, being happy and excited. While I was driving, I felt like someone was following me.
After a few minutes, 2 cars stopped in front of me. Someone came outside the car and asked me to roll down the window. My instincts told me it's not safe, so I reversed my car. The other car started chasing me, and it crashed in my car. I tried to dodge them, but they were constantly following. I saw a building beside me. I stopped my car and grabbed my office bag and phone. And made sure to lock the car. I ran towards the building. They, too, got outside the car and were on my trail. I hid behind the cars, and when they thought I took an elevator after thinking I went there, I escaped from there. Saint's house is finally in my view. As I was about to move ahead, I got his call.
Saint: Sam, r u not coming?
Sam: I... I (I was panting) out.... ou..outsi..de.
Saint: Sam, r u ok?
(Why is he panting? Is he outside? Then, rather than hearing his response, I heard someone's voice telling , " he is there catch him".what's going on? I'm getting scared. I decided to go out and see. What I saw was Sam getting attacked by a few men. Not again.)

Sam Pov

Catch him! .... I was tired from running. I got it that they have found me. What I didn't want was, them knowing Saint's house, so I stopped where I was. I prepared myself for fighting.
What a fcuking luck!
Sam: What do you want?
Person: You, of course
Sam: How much money do you want to open your mouth? Tell me who is behind all this and the money is yours.
Person 2 : Smart , I see. But taking you is more worth than anything. Guys capture him.
Sam: ( Who the hell is behind all this? I started fighting them. I launched an upper cut punch, and one guy fainted. Good leaves me with 2. The other guy went to take a knife from the car and came to attack me while I was fighting with another one. He was holding me in his clutches and was about to smash me,
BOOM!..
The knife guy was on the ground, groaning in pain. I saw Saint come in vision, and he freed me and beat the another guy. Now, all of them were lying on the floor in pain.
Saint: r u ok?
Sam: Hmm (I was feeling tired and a bit dizzy)
Saint: Come, let's get inside (I could see he was not well. He has scratches here and there. As we started walking, 6 expensive cars surrounded us. Wtf? There is no way I will be able to fight them. I don't understand who is behind Sam. One guy in a black suit came out and started coming towards us. I panicked and hid Sam behind me.)
Bodyguard Min : Sir
Sam: Finally, you are here, huh? ( My bodyguard bowed to me, and I could see Saint was scared. Maybe he thought they were here to attack me. But when he hid me behind him, that gesture melted my heart.)
Saint,relax they are my people.

Bodyguard Min: Sorry for the delay, Sir, but the location kept changing, so we had a bit of a problem.
Sam: Hmmm, take these 3 with you and do the needful.
Bodyguard: Sir, what about you?

Sam: I'm staying with my friend.
Bodyguard Min : ok
(We left the place after taking the kidnappers)
