Save Me

Goddess

"That was so amazing!" Koko practically shouted in her ear. They had decided to hang out together to celebrate their success.

"It was just a presentation Koko. I had no doubt we were going to land the contract for the advertisement." The other woman was hanging onto her elbow beaming at her like she was a little kid.

"It was not JUST a presentation Nabi. You were so natural at it like you were just talking about anything at all. I saw no nerves from you, no twitches or even a light sweat. You're like a business goddess." She doubted she was that good but it felt nice to hear the complements. Maybe now Yoongi will get off her back even just a little. She was given a chance and had thoroughly proven she was not just here for show.

"Hey is it okay if Sely joins us? She just got out of class." Cree was looking at her phone.

"Yea sure. I remember you wanted me to meet her. Now as good a time as any." She saw Cree quickly typing something before looking up at her.

"Where are we even going out to hang out at anyway?" She felt kind of stupid not even thinking about that simply walking.

"There is always Kat's place." Koko piped up as if that was really the only place to go. Nabi nodded in agreement watching Cree typing a bit more before putting her phone in her bag.

"She will meet us there. She knows the place because I told her all about that night we all went out." The girl had caught up with them where she was falling behind from typing hanging onto Nabi's other arm. "So what was Yoongi saying to you this morning before the meeting? Was he being mean to you again? I saw him coming out of the meeting room as I came out of the bathrooms."

"He simply wanted to be put in his place. I had no interest in listening to his incessant nagging so I shut him up pretty fast." Koko just giggled at this.

"No wonder why he was more quiet and to himself than usual. He had his headphones in all day and snapped at anyone who tried to get his attention until they finally just left him alone." They had made it to the café faster than she realized. Perhaps they had been instinctively walking this way from the beginning. There was a young woman leaned up against the fence surrounding the outdoor seating. She was wearing fitted jeans and paint splattered white shirt that stood out against her tan skin, her school bag was resting on the ground beside her feet.

"Oh Sely you beat us here." The girl at the fence looked up at them smiling big, some strands of hair from her messy bun falling around her face. "I see you had your painting class today."

"I'm working on a true masterpiece but I can't show you till it's finished." They all made their greetings before going inside the café sitting down at one of the small tables inside. "You know she can't stop talking about you two and about how much she's learned from you Nabi."

"Knowledge is meant to be shared, besides there are things I'm learning from her all the time she probably just doesn't realize it." Nabi patted Cree on the shoulder the girl lowering her head a bit.

"You're so good to me Nabi. I'm glad you moved to Korea."
