The next day came around and Hanni was still sleeping in her room. I already called the movers and had my handy-dandy dirty work person named Haerin go meet up with them. Just to make sure tiny dick man doesn't make a fuss. Haerin can really be cold as ice and be able to put him in his place if she has to. And before you ask how close I am to her, she's my cousin! Who I would want to strangle one day. But I do actually enjoy her being around. Sometimes.

I took a sip of my coffee as I had the iPad on the table. Looking over some documents I was going to print out for a meeting I will attend to later. And of course, Ms. Hanni Pham will come with me. But I'll ask her just in case. And before you say anything! I'm not going to overwork her in this state. I just want to give her a little something to keep her mind busy. To get her out of the gutter that she finds herself in. Speaking off, I looked at the time and figured that the movers were at least a block away. So it was best I woke Hanni up. I didn't want to, but I wouldn't know what to do with her stuff.

I stood up from my office desk and stretched a bit. I was only wearing my sleeping pants and a sports bra. That wouldn't seem appropriate to wake her up in, but I'm just too lazy to go to my room just to get a shirt. I lazily made my way through my house. The giant floor to ceiling windows gave me the beautiful view of the city. Such a lonely view every morning. But it felt better knowing that Hanni was here I just wish she's better today, I wouldn't want to see her sad in the meeting. So that means that I'm going to have to do one hell of a job to get a smile from her.

I knocked on her door. "Do you want to build a snowman~" I was probably sounding stupid right now, but hearing the laughter she let out was very much worth it. She was like a little kid at times, you just had to be playful to get her mood back up, and I'm not against that. I'd even play tag with her if I could. I'm such a child at times. And I think that's where our chemistry is the strongest. I heard the door being unlocked and the door being opened revealed Hanni. Her eyes puffy but with a big smile on her face as she looked at me.

"I never thought you were a Frozen girl." She said and I let out a scoff. "Try spending a weekend with my niece, you'll know all the sing-alongs by the end of the day." I said and she let out a cute little giggle. Maybe I should introduce her to Eunchae, they'd have a blast together, I can already see the chaos. But at the moment my sister, Minju will not be pleased on seeing me. I may or may have not taught Eunchae a curse word and how to flip someone off. But in my defense these little boys are complete little dicks man, it was for her own safety.

And I may or may have not told her to kick them in the balls too. I've had a share fair of women kick me in the balls and I've learned to leave them alone. See, very easy. So ladies kick someone in the balls if they're not leaving you alone.

Anyway.

"You really should've been a model." Hanni said as she poked at my bare ribs. I smacked her hand away and looked down at my body. Not to make it seem like I have a giant ego or anything, but I do have the body for a model. I'm tall, and my physique is strong but not too strong, and I definitely have the looks. I'm the hottest woman breathing right now, ask the magazines. "Not my thing, the spotlight is too much for me." I said and she shook her head at me as she gave me a smile.

For a split second, my eyes got lost inside hers. An ocean with raging waves that threatened to drown me if I went any deeper. It should've scared me, it should've made me panic, it should've made me run back to shore. But I couldn't. I only felt myself moving forward and letting the waves crash in to me and slowly drown me. Giving her my last breath. My heart beat was faster than usual, and thumping, I feared that she could feel it.

I was saved by her voice as I felt her arms wrap around me, her eyes closing as she leaned in to me. "I'm sorry, I just really want you to hug me." She said, her voice was small. And who was I to say no to her? I wanted to ask her if it was really okay since I had no shirt on, but it was clear she didn't mind. I could only let out a small smile as I wrapped my arms around her. This felt nice, very nice. It felt like a warm mug of chocolate on a winter night. And if I were to be honest, it felt so perfect.
