Tap herI riffle a through the piles and piles of cloth sprawled all over my bedroom floor. I'm going to be late. SiSi!' I yell frantically. Where the hell are they? I run out onto the landing and throw myself over the banister. SiSi! I hear the familiar sound of a wooden spoon bashing at the edge of ceramic bowl as SiSi appears at the bottom of stairs, her pony hair untied in a mess. She looks up at me with tired expression. It's an expression that i've become used to recently.
Key!, Have you seen my car keys? I puff at SiSi. They are on the table where you left them last night over there;. She rolls her eyes, while taking herself and take her cake mixture back to her baking kitchen.I dart across the landing in a complete fluster and find my car keys under a pile of weekly magazines.Then i make my way downstairs from the flat above SiSi baking kitchen,finding spooning cake mixture into various bowls. "You need to tidy your room Weiwei. It's fucking mess, she complains to me. It's true that i am an interior designer at Deng Tai Interior one of the biggest company at Beijing and spend all day organising and coordinating interior but my personal organisation skills are pretty shocking to talks. Haha... I took one mini cupcake into my mouth from the chunky table. "I can't be brilliant at everything Sisi. Then she told me, 'Get out!, She bats my hand away with her spatula before i could take another piece of her cupcake. Why do you need a a car anyway?, she ask, leaning down to her mixture bowl over, her tongue resting on her bottom lip in concentration.
'I have a first consultation at Old Mansion Feng'. I feed my belt through the belt loops of my navy pencil dress, slip my feet into my heels and present myself to the wall mirror.
'I thought you stuck to the city forever,' she say from behind me. I ruffle my long, blonde hair for a few seconds, flicking it from one side to other but give up, piling it up with a few grips instead. My hazel brown eyes look tired and lack their usual sparkle, results,no doubt,of burning the candle at both ends. i only move in with SiSi a month ago. I do. The Old Mansion is Xufeng domain but i don't know how i got stuck with this..' I sweep the wand of my gloss across my lips, smack them together and give SiSi a kiss on the cheek. It's going to be painful,i know it. See ya!
'Lenglui. See you later,' SiSi laughs,without lifting her face from her mixture bowl.
Despite my lateness, i drive my cutie Beetle with my usual care to my office on Beijing St and i'm reminded why I tube it everyday when i spend ten minutes driving around looking for a parking space. I burst into the office and glance at the clock on my desk. Nine forty, okay i'm fifthy minutes late,not bad as i thought. I pass Jing Jing and Old Yue empty desks on the way to my own,spying Xufeng in his office as i land my on my chair. Unpacking my files and lappy,notice there a packaging for me.
Morning Xiao Wei. Xufeng low boom greets me as he perches on the edge of my desk, followed by the customary creak under his weight. What have you got there Xiao Wei?'
'Morning. It's a new fabric from Yuan Silk. You like? I stroke some of the luxurious material.
Wonderful,he feign interest. "Don't let Yuxing clap her eyes on it. I've just liquidated most my assets to fund the new soft furnishings at home. Oh,. I give him a sympathetic face. 'Where is everyone?e to start writing
