Are you cold Miss?

Ryu pov

I flex my fingers, knowing the last blow was definitely going to leave a  bruise

Catching the punching bag as it swings forward, my phone phone lit up with a notification

Ignoring it, I slam my fist into the bag again, reveling in the sharp burst of pain that jolted up my arm at the impact

My muscles ached and sweat dripped down my forehead, blurring my vision and making my hair glue to my forehead but i didn't came to stop
I'd done so many times and i am so used to it that i didn't have to see to land my hits I am doing it since childhood

My knuckles hurt. Fuck my whole hands hurt but that didn't stop me from hitting the punching bag. Letting all my anger and violence out

Work wasn't going so well and i needed a reset

Breathing heavily I look down at my compression shirt my whole body a mess of aches and sweat. I crack my neck to continue the torture on the bag

My mind strays to scarlett, the image of her from that night swaying her lips on the music ,not  giving a fuck about the surroundings
Her sweet lips that tasted like honey flashed through my mind

I set my jaw and refounded on my workout session brushing all thoughts of scarlett from my head

My phone again lit up with a call, the contact name made me pick the call in hurry
The voice from other side said "She's here" And the call eas hanged up

A smirk welled up on my face, all the anger vanished in a second
Letting out a loud chuckle
I walked to were towels were, grabbing one of them and using it to wipe off the sweat on my face

"It's the time to take her under my submission"

Scarlett pov

A fucking 10 hours flight, my neck feels like it has been broken and my whole body aches so much

Walking out of the airport I saw the person who was in charge of guiding us here
Okay a old man, how boring

"I am so excited" said Julie, she is really a energy ball how the hell she is not tried
I just want to eat something nice and sleep

"Have you talked about the apartment with your dad"I said while sitting down in the car

"Yes my dad bought a apartment in the Itaewon "said daniel while looking through the google maps
"What!!" screeched Julie, "My apartment is in Myeong dong"
"So we all are separated by streets" I said while rolling my eyes
"Well I think so, what about girl where you gonna live" said Julie while sulking like a baby
She is so cute
"Hanang Dong" I said with a smirk

The old man, oh sorry our guide spoke up "oh Hanang Dong, it's the luxurious part in Seoul mostly the residents there are billionaires and celebrities
" I know that's why I forced my dad to buy me a apartment there, it's a beautiful place with Hanang River in front and Namsam Mountain in the back "

"You are so wicked Scarlett" said Julie
"No I am not you didn't ask me first your fault"

"Julie Myeong dong is the first place we will head to, after that i will go with Scarlett and help her set her apartment, I think you can manage on your own right Julie?" said Daniel while patting Julie's head
Well she is the youngest of us
Daniel have always treated her as his little sister

"I can you go with Scarlett" said Julie
They are surely the sweetest
"No need I can manage on my own" I said while smacking Daniel in his head
"Ouch, what was that for? " said Daniel while caressing his head
"Because you are being a oversmart bitch" I said while smacking Daniel again
As I was about to hit him, he captured my wrist in his while twisting a bit
Oh it going leave marks for sure
"I know you can manage on your own but let me help you, as long as I am there you don't need to work Scary"
He said and released my wrist
Okay I can't win against him

                           *********

"Omg it's so huge and beautiful" I exclaimed while scanning the place u am gonna live in
"Enough with this staring let's start the work, first the kitchen"

I followed him like a lost puppy in the kitchen
I was just standing there all the time watching him set up my kitchen
Can't blame myself never ever I my life I have touched a spatula

"You are not gonna help me" said Daniel while glaring at me
I gulped as I can see he is getting angry
"Okay tell me what to do"
"Take the boxs of flour, sugar and cereal and place it in the top shelf"
"Okay" I said picking up the flour at first

Why can't I reach the top shelf I am not short, I know he gave me this work so that he can make fun of me
I stood on my tip toes trying to reach the top shelf, I streched my arms as long as I can but still I can't reach up

Should I climb on the cabinet? Nah bad idea
I was still struggling to reach the top shelf, I felt someone's presence behind me

The perfume made me realise it was none other than Daniel

He towered over me , holding my hands from behind, the intimacy was too much, I could feel his hot deep breath on my neck, making me shiver
Moving his hands that was on my hand he placed the box on the top shelf and separated from me, the warmth vanished

"I should not have told you to do anything tsk tsk" said Daniel while pinching his nose
"You have the audacity to blame me when you are the one to handle me this work when you knew that I can't reach the top shelf!!"
"Come on Scarlett we are almost of the same height" He laughed it off
"Last time I checked I was 5'6 and you were 6 ft tall like a tower" I said while crossing my arm around my chest

"Okay sorry my fault" said Daniel while holding his ears
"Better be" I said and  we laughed at the stupid conversation

                             *********

It's 9'o clock and we decided to meet up at 8:30
I am standing in the cold outside of the restaurant
Waiting for the late-latifs  oh I mean my friends, first day in another country and they ghosted me

Daniel already informed me he would be a little late because he needed to set up his place as he was doing mine at first
But what about Julie!!

I was trying to warm up myself while rubbing my hands, I didn't have any idea that the weather here will be so cold, wearing a backless dress was not a good idea at all

I was lost in my thoughts when a car pulled up in front of me
The windows rolled down and it was the person whom I expected to be the least

"Get in Miss Scarlett Madden it's too cold outside" said Ryu Shi-Oh
Am I dreaming right now, I was frozen on my spot not knowing what to do
He hopped down from his sit coming over to the over side opening the gate
"Get in Scarlett I bet you missed me too"
