[C] Sweet Lies - Park Chanyeol

EIGHTEEN - Better

It was a chill morning that day. Soojin went to work as early as 7:00AM to avoid the traffic jam on the way to their office. Minseok called her in the early morning with a panic voice. He wanted Soojin to arrive early in the office that morning to attend a sudden meeting with a client from Thailand.

Soojin was awake from the ring from her handphone. She look at the caller ID and it shows her oppa's name there. She peek the clock on the corner of her phone screen and it shows 5:00AM. She slide her phone to the right and put the phone on her right ear.

"Emm oppa. Why you call me this early. I need some more sleep today." She said.

"Wake up now Hyun Soojin! You need to help oppa this morning!" Minseok replied with his panic voice.

"What happened oppa?" She asked her brother who seems so panic.

"I need you to handle an important client from Thailand. Our appointment should be on next week but he suddenly need to come early because of some problem there." Minseok explained to her.

"And why can't you attend that meeting? I need to take a look about our financial department issue. I found too many unmatching numbers in the account." Soojin replied.

"WHAT??? Another problem? Aish! You pass that to Jongdae. He can handle it for you and I trust him for that. You really need to entertain this client. He is important to us. I already book another meeting with a local client tomorrow and only I know the details about that client. She is a new client from a small company and I wanted to help her." Minseok sounds so worried.

"Arraseo. Relax oppa. I'm here to help you and Jongdae is here too to support us and working with us." Soojin tried to cool down her brother a bit.

Soojin felt a warm movement around her shoulder area from her back and a soft butterfly kisses were planted on her neck make her feel tingly and kind of heated a bit.

She give a medium-strong slap on Chanyeol's right arm with her left hand while her right one still holding on the phone.

"Stop it Chanyeol. I'm talking to Minseokkie oppa here." She told Chanyeol.

"Pass him to me." Chanyeol grab the phone from Soojin's hand and place it to his large right ear. He planted a quick peck on Soojin's ear and bite it a little that made Soojin planted another slap on his forearm before he talk with Minseok on Soojin's phone.

"Hyung, take a deep breath please. Don't worry I can help you handle things on your office if you cannot handle it alone anymore. Wait, you are not alone. You got Soojin and your friend with you. What was his name again? I never meet him before this so I can't really remember his name." Chanyeol talked to Minseok.

"It's Jongdae." Minseok replied short.

"Yes, Jongdae. Don't worry hyung, I can help you anytime with it. I am your best friend before becoming your brother-in-law. Remember?" Chanyeol tried to lift up Minseok's mood a little.

"Aish Chanyeol. I know that! How can I forget the man who took my Jinnie away from me. You snatched her away from me. How can I forget that?" Minseok finally let his guard down a little and can joke around.

"See! I am THAT guy who snatch Soojin away from you. How can you forget me, right? And who am I again? Park Chanyeol. I won the best CEO award in 2016. That is just a small matter to me hyung. Don't worry about it too much." Chanyeol spoke to his brother-in-law.

They talk a little more before Chanyeol hang up the phone and he already let go of Soojin from his hug awhile ago and Soojin already in her office attire and they are already in fron of the front door after Sppjim taking her quick breakfast which is a few raisins and a cup of warm chocolate. She really don't want to take any because she feel the need to be in rush since Minseok already call her again to make sure she already in her attire but Chanyeol made her to have her breakfast. Chanyeol remind her that she need to take care of two people now since she is in her early pregnancy now. Their baby is almost four months old now and a slight baby bump can be seen if she wear slightly tight or small clothes. Luckily she always wear loose blouse and shirts when she is out and to the office and her cute bump is hidden in her clothes. People cannot really tell if she is pregnant because of her fashion.

"You went to the office this early today?" Chanyeol pouted his bottom lips.

"Aish! Don't do that face to me! It's not working okay?" Soojin said to Chanyeol.

"Do you really need to attend that meeting?" Chanyeol asked again.

"Of course I am. Why you are asking the obvious question my dear?" Soojin get a hold of his both hands and play with his large ang long finger.

"Can I come with you to the meeting?" Chanyeol asked again with hos sparkly eyes.

"Channie, why you are so clingy nowadays? I'm going to work okay baby? It's just at the office. We can eat lunch together if you want. I'll come to your office this lunch hour. Okay?"

"It's a promise right?" Chanyeol gave her his pinky finger and shake it to make Soojin stamp his finger with hers, making a promise.

"Arraseo. I promise that. I will be at your office this lunch. I'll go to work first okay? Don't miss me." Soojin smile to Chanyeol before went out from the from door of their house to grab her heels.

"Soo, don't wear heels please." Chanyeol demanded.

"Channie, I need to attend the meeting today. Don't worry about Ae-chan. He will be okay in there. I will always be extra careful with him." Soojin smile to Chanyeol and caress his dimples with her both hands.

They decided to call their baby Ae-chan from the word Aeri(에리) which means love and chan is the way Japanese people address their close friend or children. Chanyeol really want to add "chan" since it took half of his name already. See. His superiors sass never went away. Once a boss, always a boss.

"If you said so, its okay then. Goodbye and take care for yourself and the baby." Chanyeol give a long kiss on Soojin's forehead and Soojin smile from it.

"See you at lunch Channie. I love you 💕" she smile to him and Chanyeol replies the smile back.

"I know." He said

Soojin went to her car and mumbles "he never said he love me or reply to my love confessions even once. Hmm..." obviously Chanyeol cannot hear that.
