Cherry Blossoms and You

Chapter 4: My Ice Cream Girl

Tiffany's POV

I wake up with the biggest smile on my face, still obsessing over last night, with my fashion icon's sudden appearance into my life, to the unexpected job offer. I get up and I tip-toe downstairs, trying to not wake the sleeping beauty up, who was sleeping on the couch, which was where she decided to sleep in last night. Of course, I felt bad and didn't want her to sleep on the couch that wasn't the most comfortable thing in the world, but she insisted, so I gave up and let her sleep on the couch. I go over to Jessica to wake her up, not making any time to study her sleeping face, because I realized that I have a flight to catch to Japan and I need to go to Mr. Wesley to quit my job, plus just staring at her sleeping would just be weird.

"Jessica! Jessi! Sica!" I say, shaking her a bit, but she still won't move. I shake her a bit more, I've even took a pillow and hit her, trying not to hit her too hard. Still nothing. I started to become restless as I look over at the time. So, I took the pillow and just hit her until she wakes up, muttering a sorry before I went in for the kill.

"JESSICA JUNG GET YOUR BUTT OFF MY COUCH NOW!!!" I yell, she finally stirs and starts showing signs of movement. She then starts to say something in her husky morning voice, that immediately put shivers down my spine, and it's the bad kind of shivers that make you want to run before anything else happens.

"Well well well, so this is how you treat your boss hmm?" She says, smirking at me. Crap! Ice Princess Fany! Ice Princess! Why are you so thick? Next time, think girl! THINK! I scold to myself. I panic and get down on my knees praying that she won't cancel the offer.

"Please! Ms. Jung! I'm so sorry! It won't happen again! I was just trying to w-wake you up b-because I need to clarify things Mr. Wesley r-regarding the new job today, and I have a flight later to Japan for vacation! Please Ms. Jung you are my only hope I can't work for him anymore please!" I plead, with tears already in the brink of tears falling off my eyes.

Jessica just stares at me with that icy glare, God that icy glare, if glares could kill I would already be lying on my grave.

After a painstaking silence, she breaks into the most hysterical, dolphin-filled laugh I have ever heard, managing to startle me at the sudden noise.

"HAHAHA!!! YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN THE LOOK ON YOUR FACE! HAHAHA!" She yells, making my skin instantly boil, and steam blow out of my ears.

"YAH! JESSICA JUNG I WILL KILL YOU!" I say, and start chasing her around the apartment, with her still laughing all over the place and me wearing my serious face.

"Yah! Yah! Yah! I'm just kidding! You still keep the job I was just playing around hahaha!" She says, stopping and catching a breath in between her words. While I fall into relief that I still keep the job, but is still annoyed at the fact that the Ice Princess herself pulled the meanest trick on me.

"Well, I'm still mad at the fact that you tricked me!" I say, punching her in the arm.

"Hey, stop it's all good and I'm really sorry by the way, at least it's a sign that I'm finally 'warming' up to you," she explains, giving me a reassuring smile.

"You've probably nicknamed me Ice Princess already didn't you?" She asks, making me surprised at how she managed to know that I did nickname her Ice Princess.

"It's fine if you did, I get that from everyone I meet, I'm used to it," she says.

"But, why do people call you that?" She gives out a sigh.

"It all started when I was in high school really. I would always look so bored and spaced out in every situation I'm in. I would always give this look that people seem to be scared of and misunderstand making everyone just leave me alone, so I never really had many friends when I was in school," she says, making me start to feel sorry for her.
