<3 months later>
It has been 3 months since Christian and I kissed back in Singapore and ever since our flight back ,we distanced ourselves and never talked again. We only talk work and nothing else,everyone is living their own life like before. I started talking to Joon more and he was taking me out to dinner this evening.
"Look at you going out with your bosses, we'll lemme say your crushes nemesis,I don't like this but I just have to support your decisions" Patricia sighed as she watched me get ready
"Patricia ,I don't like Christian like that and Joon is a very nice guy" I shrugged
"But you did kiss him and he did tell you to stay away from Joon " Patricia backed up her point
"That's their past and it has nothing to do with me ,why are you so worried about Christian?" I huffed as I stopped doing my makeup to face her
"Because he is in love with you and you're in love with him but you are denying the feeling " Patricia sighed
"OK OK fine, I'm doing this to get my mind of Christian, I miss him so much Patricia but I don't want my feelings for him to get in the way of our work relationship, so please spare me the whole relationship talk and advice" I confessed
"I knew it Lucy I knew it ,but do whatever makes you happy I guess, call me when you're done with your 'date'" Patricia sighed and she walked out my room and straight to hers ,closing the door behind her.
"What am I doing " I asked myself as I looked in the mirror
I finished up my make-up and put on my shoes and there was ring on the doorbell so I went to check who it was and it was Jonathan so I opened the door
"Lucy I need to tell you something " Jonathan huffed as he looked like he was out of breath so I let him in.
"What's so important that you couldn't call me?" I asked him
"Christian is in the hospital, he was shot as he was leaving the office " Jonathan told me making me drop my purse on the ground
"Which hospital is he at? Lemme come with you " I sighed as I was so worried
"Trueman memorial hospital " Jonathan sighed and I went to knock on Patricia's door and she opened it.
"What's wrong, did the date get cancelled?" Patricia asked
"Christian got shot, we need to go to the hospital like now Jonathan is here to take us" I told Patricia
"Lemme get my hoodie and put on my slippers" Patricia pouted and she quickly got her hoodie from her closet and put on her slippers and came out the door.
"Aren't you going to change too?" Jonathan asked me
"You can't go looking like that sis" Patricia agreed with him
"Go change ,we'll wait for you " Jonathan smiled and I went to my room and changed out of my dinner dress and threw on some sweatpants and the large sweatshirt I got from Antonio.
