Save Me

Two

"So cub, have you booked us the flight tickets? when will we be leaving? can you let me know the date? I should bring more socks right? for the trip? will I--STOP EATING LIKE YOU'RE DISGUSTED BY IT. It's a freaking salad Chaeng not a pig intestine. Eat properly! or order some other dish. Why didn't you order anything anyway?" Jeongyeon scold the younger one. Chaeyoung just laughed it off and gave a rockstar hand sign to Jeongyeon. "Sorry sorry. I didn't feel hungry at first but I suddenly am when looking at your plate full of greens. Funny how it looks so tempting earlier but no shit hyung, that's just a no-no for me. I'm gonna order some steak." Chaeyoung replied and call for the waiter. She ordered a plate of expensive steak with a glass of red wine. "Well that's a fancy sets of lunch for a non-fancy Son Chaeyoung. Steak and wine? at this hour? really? weirdo. But whatever I know you're weird. Back to my questions earlier, how's everything? the tickets, boarding pass, and whatever shit we're supposed to prepare before flying off, is it done?" Jeongyeon asked. "Oh yes boss it's done. Totally. Everything for you. Should I prepare a red carpet as well?" The younger one stated while nodding her head in every sentences she said, like a servant acknowledging a master's order. "Do you want me to smack your head? you and your sarcastic ass, aishhh" Jeongyeon lift her palm up swaying it near Chaeyoung's head. Chaeyoung showed a toothy grins and when she's about to open her mouth to speak, Jeongyeon narrows her eyes and said "finish your food. I need to head back to the office after this. Text me the details of our trip, I mean it cub." "Yeah yeah okay okay I'll let you know hyung." Chaeyoung surrendered.

The two buddies went separate ways after their lunch. Jeongyeon heading back to the office and Chaeyoung to her gallery. Jeongyeon was in rush. "Shit I'm late for my meeting." She look at her watch and didn't realize she was crossing the road without checking her left and right when a long honking sound startled the heck out of her. Jeongyeon freezes up on the spot and closed her eyes, bracing herself for an impact but someone grip her arm and pulled her to the side of the road. Jeongyeon fell on top of the person. "Are you okay? did anywhere hurt?" the person asked worriedly. "I-I'm fi-fine. Thank y-you for saving me." Jeongyeon stutters. Her face was pale. Colorless. She became statued. "Um, do you mind?" gesturing their closeness "to get off of me?" the person said. Jeongyeon's face heated up. She didn't realize she's still on top of that person. "I'm so sorry." Jeongyeon got up and bowing non stop towards the person. "Hey hey it's okay. Don't be sorry. You looked pale as fuck right now. Are you sure you're okay? where are you heading? I can accompany you to wherever you're heading?" the person offers. "No. No it's okay. I'm a bit shaken up but I'll be okay. My office is just across the road." Jeongyeon assured the person. "Okay. If you say so. I'll be going now. Be careful next time." the person bid Jeongyeon a single wave and she wink! and walk away. That wink caught her off guard. Jeongyeon mouth hangs open and her heart skip a beat. She pull herself together and Jeongyeon shouted "I will!" sounding a little too cheerful for someone who's almost got hit by a damn car. "She's cute." Jeongyeon mumbles to herself. "I wonder why I never seen her around here." she added up. Jeongyeon just shrugged her thoughts off and went back to her office.

Jeongyeon was sitting comfortably on her chair facing through the glass windows, enjoying the city view from the 28th floor of the thirty-storey building. Her mind was wandering off replaying the incident earlier that day. The room was so quiet she only accompanied by her own breathing sound until she heard a knock on the office door and saw someone's head craning from behind it. "Hey busypants. You missed the meeting earlier." Momo said and entered the room walking towards the mini bar that Jeongyeon had for herself in the office. Momo is one of Jeongyeon's board of directors. She met the Japanese girl few years ago in some business worldwide expo and they get along straight away. The two became friends since then. How did Momo managed to become one of the board members? Well the truth is their dads were friends as well. Momo's in charged for her dad's company's branch in Korea. The two were quite surprised when their dads introduced them in one of the board meetings.

"What are you doing here? I thought the meeting wrapped up a few hours ago?" Jeongyeon asked. "I know. I left as soon as the meeting has finished to attend ANOTHER meeting. Lol. I was about to head home but when I pass by your building, I saw your car in front. Figured I could drop by to check up on you. I bumped into your secretary as well downstairs, he said you're still in the office. Poor boi rushing to head out, probably late for his date hahaha. Why did you restrain him from going home? It's 8PM now!" Momo explained while pouring a glass of scotch. "I didn't! I told him he can go back after he finished his works. I didn't know he's still outside. Don't make me look like I'm a bad boss Momo." Jeongyeon defends herself. "Okay chill. Don't be so defensive. What's up with you?" Momo asked the short haired blonde while sipping her scotch. "I had a small accident earlier. Almost got knock down by a stupid car. Well technically I'm the stupid one because I didn't check on my surrounding before crossing the road." Jeongyeon stated and Momo burst out laughing. "Why are you laughing you jackass! I could've died!" Jeongyeon was pissed on her friend's reaction and throw a pen at her but Momo managed to catch it. "Well you're safe and still breathing now it's all that matters. And I know Jeongyeon.." Momo stopped her sentence. "know what?" Jeongyeon asked. "that you're stupid." Momo continues and snickered. "Fuck you. Let's get the hell out of here." Jeongyeon stated. Jeongyeon grab her purse and phone and walk out from her office leaving the Japanese girl alone. "close the door and LEAVE THE GLASS INSIDE HIRAI!" Jeongyeon shouted from the end of the hall. "Oops! hehe" Momo gulped the last drop of her scotch and walk after Jeongyeon.

Momo and Jeongyeon decided to have supper before going home. They stop by to some convenient store and grab whatever seems good to munch on. The two bestfriend always do this. Instead of going to a nightclub after work, they would rather went to a convenient store. Besides who are we kidding, she's with Hirai Momo, the girl always hungry and ready to eat whenever. Jeongyeon decided if Chaeyoung is her nightclub buddy, then Momo's her food hunting buddy. "Soooo can I tag along with you guys?" Momo asked. "Tag along? to where? with whom?" Jeongyeon replied looking at Momo while stuffing her mouth with red bean bun. "um duh? your trip with Chaeyoung? next week? to Greece? hello is anybody there? come on brain work for your master?" Momo knock Jeongyeon's head several time like knocking a door. "I swear to god Momo if you ever knock my head like that again I will punch you in the face so bad people won't recognize you as Hirai Momo anymore." Jeongyeon sends a death glare to Momo. "Of course I remember about the trip I'm just pretending not to because hell to the NO you can't come with us to the trip nu'uh not gonna happen." "Why the hell not?? come on don't tell me y'all still terrified from the previous trip. It was an accident everybody knew that. It wasn't even my fault." Momo remind her friend. "Not your fault my ass! You're the one who sat on the speed boat gear causing it to jump upward and Chaeyoung fell into the sea. She could've die of drowning. That poor cub can't swim and you laughed at her! what an asshole!" Jeongyeon recall on what happened during their trip to Hawai last year. Momo can't help but laugh, remembering those unforgettable memory. "Well I said it's not my fault, I didn't say my ass wasn't guilty." Momo shrugged her shoulders. "This asshole was the one who save Chaeyoung's ass after that right? what were you doing that time? hugging the speedboat railing like your life was depending on it." Momo counter back. "Whatever, you're still not coming with us." Jeongyeon retorted. "Ahh maannn. You're no fun! come on Jeongyeon just this time. I promised I'll behave. I'll pay for our accommodation if you guys let me follow. I need a break from works too! my dad has been nagging me these past few weeks because of some motherfuckers trying to sabotage one of our project. I finally got to solved it. It's time for a Momo-cation, Momo-cation featuring her two charming butlers! i'm kidding i'm kidding. Please please please?" Momo tried to coax Jeongyeon using a puppy dog eyes. "Ew stop doing that, you're not cute. Fine! but ask Chaeyoung first. If she agrees then I'm okay with it. I only agree because you're paying for our stays during the trip." Jeongyeon respond and Momo just grinning widely like a clown that she is.
