Aaliyah slowly opened her eyes as she stretched in bed.  She looked at her phone to see if she received a text from Min-Joon. She was nervous when she saw he had texted her that morning.  A smile appeared on her face as soon as she read his text.

From: Min-Joon😍❤️
-Sorry my phone died. I'll come pick you up after work.

From: Min-Joon😍❤️
-P.S. I love you too.

Aaliyah smiled down at the message on her phone with both happiness and relief. She hoped out of bed and walked into the bathroom to get dressed. As soon as she stepped out from her room, the other girls did to. Aaliyah, Hamia and Dawn all made eye contact with one another and glanced at the bathroom door.  Immediately, they made an attempt to get into the bathroom first but all got stuck in the door.

"Move," Hamia said. 

"No I got here first," Dawn protested. 

"What?!?!" Aaliyah said.  The three continued to argue while they tried to push each other out of the way.  Sunny crossed her arms irritated at the actions and attitudes of her friends. 

"That's enough!!!!!  House meeting.  Living room.  Now," Sunny ordered before she leaving to the living room.

"Look you've all had time at think after a nights rest. Can't we end this?" Sunny asked.

"Sunny right. We're not teenagers anymore. It's time we let petty arguments go," Hamia said.

"You're right. As soon as Dawn apologizes for ruining the night," Aaliyah said.

"Over my dead body," Dawn said with her arms crossed as she laid back into the couch.

"I'm good with that," Aaliyah said as she stood up and was about to step towards her, but Sunny pulled her back down.

"Dawn apologize to Aaliyah. You know you where in the wrong," Hamia said.

"Come on, Dawn. Stop being stubborn. That night was a chance for everyone to get to know each other, but you had to give attitude," Sunny said.

"Alright. Alright. Look Aaliyah, I'm really sorry for ruining the night. I know you just wanted us to leave a good impression on Min-Joon. I should've just let it go," Dawn said sincerely. She decided to let go of her pride and to just move on. She would never admit it, but she hates getting into fights with her friends.

"Apology accepted," Aaliyah said with a smile.

"Aww, I love when you guys make up," Sunny said.

"Come on. Hug it out," Hamia said.

Dawn stood up and opened her arms wide which Aaliyah accepted. She quickly stood up too and hugged Dawn while they rocked back and forth a few time. The two released and smiled at each other. Hamia smiled at the sight in front of her, but that smile immediately fell when she saw the time.

"Uh as great as this is guys. It's 7:30 and we have to be at work for 8," Hamia said. Each girl stared at each other wide eyed before Dawn booked it into the bathroom and closed the door behind her. Hamia, Sunny and Aaliyah ran after her and banged at the door telling her not to take long and to hurry up. The girls spent the rest of the morning rushing to get ready. They didn't even have time to eat breakfast so on their way to work they stopped by Starbucks to pick up breakfast. It was 7:55 when Aaliyah and Sunny arrived at work.

"Have a great day guys," Hamia said as sunny and Aaliyah rushes out of the car. They waved goodbye to Dawn and Hamia before the they drove away.

"I'll see you at Lunch?" Sunny asked as the two ran into the building.

"Yeah. Meet me here at 1," Aaliyah told her. The two hugged each other before the parted ways up to their offices. Unfortunately, Aaliyah's boss seems to have a stick up her ass because as soon as Aaliyah arrived to her desk 5 minutes late, she called her to her office. Aaliyah knocked on her boss's office door.
