It has already been two weeks since the day Jean crashed over at my house and my life during those two weeks was well umm…. AMAZING.

It felt like I am a Disney princess by the kind of treatment I received from those rich brothers and their employees. Jean and I went on multiple dates just to know what all happened in the past years when we were away from each other. Dean also joined us sometimes to make it like a get together. It still feels like it is a dream, and everything will disappear when I open my eyes.

Except the fact that all of it is very real. And the cup in my hand is very empty.
I snap out of my thoughts and walk away from my cabin to get me an iced tea. Coffee never really worked for me so my only support for working nonstop was tea. I glanced on all the employees working under me to ensure that they are working while walking back to my cabin.
“Hey!” a cheerful voice has me turning back to see the source only to find out that it is from boss’s brother who is also my good friend Rowan. We got close the moment we met cause we both loved the same things. A perfect example of bright, cheerful  golden boy pouring out sunshine wherever he goes. I signal him to follow me to my cabin and he does that.
I shut the door behind him so that the other employees won’t get disturbed by our conversation.
“You do know right that some of us have to work and don’t have family inheritance to spend.” I say with an annoyed tone as I sit on my chair. Today seems undoubtedly never ending.

I attended three meetings and had to do a lot of file work. Since it is just three in the afternoon makes me more annoyed as there are still three more hours for me to get off work.
“Being Park family disappointment is my full-time job.” He says with a grin.
No one can stay mad at him I swear. I crack up a smile towards him and he smiles even wider.
“ Oppa can you pass me the file on that shelf and sit on the chair across from me. Just help me today because I feel very tired.” Rowan is Korean by nationality and his actual name is Jimin .

His family are billionaires and he is the youngest member. His brother Cal is the CEO of their company and I was Cal's secretary for two years for experience before I was assigned to work under Steve as a assistant manager in the piping department so I am close to their family.

He goes through the file searching for the contract I asked him to search. Slowly time passes as we chat and work at the same time. After one hour I finally finish all of my work and before I could even stretch myself Cal appears in my cabin with a worried face.
"Hey , I actually had a favour to ask . Can you take care of Declan for today? I will come to pick him up tomorrow.  I was actually invited to a gala tonight and you know that I can't trust Declan with Rowan."

A small kid looks at me with his doe eyes as he is clutching to Cal's legs.

" Yea sure. Come here Declan."

He rushes over to me and hugs me tightly. He and I have developed a good bond over years. His mom died after birth so Steve tried his best to raise his son alone. Declan is three years old
now.

Cal leaves my cabin after he hands me Declan's bag.
"Because of you I get to leave early yaaay. Let's go we will have a lot of fun at my home and then we will meet my special friend OK??"
He nods and smiles at me widly. I quickly pack all of my belongings and call Jean.
On call:
"Hello"

"Yes Babe what happened? "

"Can you bring royal chocolate flavour ice cream from Baskins Robin's when you come?"

"But you don't like - "

"I know, someone else likes it."

"Who?"

"Someone you will meet soon"

He grumbles under his breath and I chuckle. He ends the call.

"Khaja" let's go.

Rowan had teached me some Korean words and as Cal  wants Declan to remember their culture I have to use those words when I am with Declan sometimes.

He spreads his hands wide and I lift him up. Rowan offered us a ride cause even after four years of being in Seattle I don't  really own a car as most of my savings get used up to pay the rent and as it isn't a necessity I never bothered saving for it . We reached my flat after almost fifteen minutes.

I got off the car with Declan's bag while Rowan helps Declan to get off and lifts him in his arm.

" Give a kiss to your favourite uncle kiddo." Rowan says in a singsong way which makes me laugh. Declan kisses Rowan on his cheek and then kisses mine.
"Good boy now let's go in" I take Declan from Rowan and was about to turn when Rowan suddenly kisses my cheek to say a goodbye. I was used to it but maybe the person right behind me wasn't and the angry expression on his face explained everything.......

So sorry for not posting. I was just busy.
