Angustifolium {LingOrm}

CH-24

Lingling got into work feeling different. She was smiling to herself, thinking back to the morning.

Orm had gone in for a shower and Lingling had taken that time to go make her a coffee.

Even though Orm didn't quite like the coffee, she said it'll do until she teaches her how to make it her way. Lingling had laughed.

Orm had rewarded her for her thoughtfulness with a couple of super hot kisses down her neck right before she could leave to go home, get freshened up, changed and head to the tattoo studio.

"Thank you, for coming over, taking care of me, and staying last night" Orm texted her once she'd reached the studio

"As your girlfriend of just one night, it was the most obvious thing to do." Lingling replied.

"You've yet to tell me everything that happened though"

"I will, I'll call you tonight?" Lingling asked

"Yes..." Orm said.

"Thinking about those kisses" Lingling said

"Lingling Sirilakwong, if you'd stayed even a second longer, I would have moved those kisses lower down..." Orm wrote

Lingling was blushing, staring at her phone.

"You're telling me this NOW?!" Lingling said.

"Hahaha have a nice day, Teerak"

"You too, babe. Drink water"

***

Lingling was in her studio, she was just done with a client and they'd just left. It was afternoon, and Lingling wondered if Orm went to the store today. Maybe she could go over and suggest they get lunch together somewhere close by?

Lingling then got a call from her 4 pm client. They had to postpone because of a medical emergency. That left her free for pretty much the rest of the day.

"Jaja, Nene, I'm gonna leave for the day. You guys will close up when it's time?"

"Sure thing" Nene responded.

Lingling made her way to the Moonflower. She had this idea of walking in and buying a bouquet from Orm, just to mess with her, but then write Orm's name on the tag and hand it to her with a kiss.

Lingling laughed at the thought, of the little prank, and how annoyed Orm would get.

When she reached the store, she stepped in, excited to see Orm again, but to her dismay, Orm wasn't at the counter.

Lingling looked around as she walked up to View who was just finishing up with a customer.

"Lingling! Hi!" View greeted her chirpily

"Hi View!"

"What brings you here? If you're here to buy a bouquet for anyone but Orm, I'm sorry, I'm not selling you one. You're gonna have to find a new florist, and a new girlfriend."

Lingling raised an eyebrow at her, smiling, amused. "Firstly, we're not girlfriends yet. I intend to be the one to ask her soon. Your lips are sealed. Secondly no I'm not here to buy a bouquet for anyone, and thirdly... where's Orm?"

"Oh, she called in sick. She was pretty beat. Said she's running a really high fever and a runny nose, and a headache, and all of it. Sounded like a proper flu to me. Wait, she didn't tell you?" View asked.
