You're The One. (AmBw)

- Jong-in

It's Saturday morning, sun's rays are blindingly reflecting on the bedroom window and I see Annie still asleep on my chest. My phone starts to ring on the nightstand and it's Ashani calling.
As I reach to answer it, Annie wakes up and holds my arm.

"No, don't answer it, whoever it is can wait" she says

I then remove myself from her embrace, sit up straight on the bed and answer the call.

-phone conversation-

"Morning, baby. Where are you? I was worried sick about you. Since you didn't come back from your mum's." she says

"Shani, I'm sorry, I went to hang out with the boys. I'm sorry for not calling you."

"It's okay, uhm, I've got to go. I love you, oppa."

"I love you more, 자기야 (jagiya)" I say smiling

-end of phone call-

"So, tell me when will you dump this bitch?" Annie asks irritated

"I'm not dumping her, okay."

"Urgh, whatever Jong-in. I'm taking a shower."

"Annie, come on-"

Annie then gets out of bed and heads to the bathroom to run the shower. I hear the shower running as I pick up my clothes off the floor and dress up.

"Ann, I'm heading out." I say loudly so she can hear over the running water

"Fine. Whatever, go back to the dusty ass bitch as usual."

"Annie! That's my girlfriend and you will not talk about her like that" I retort annoyed by her words

"Jong-in, I don't have time for this, get out!

I nod, take my car keys and iPhone 11 Pro from the bedside table and make my way out of her bedroom, am heading to the front door. I make my way out of the penthouse and head to my black Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 4‑Door Coupé, the gate then automatically opens and I drive out of the yard.

It's 10:05 am, I arrive at Ashani's penthouse. I make my way to the front door and ring the bell.
Five minutes later the door opens and an excited Ashani is on the other side.

"Hey babe" she says as she gives me a light peck on the lips

"Sugar foot! What are you excited about?"

"Well, I have a surprise for you, tada!" she says flashing two flight tickets in my face. "I bought two flight tickets and we'll be flying out to England at 13:30pm, so start packing"

"Shani, I wish I could, but I can't. Mum is organising dinner with clients and you know I have to show face as usual." he says

"Just tell her something came up and go to England with me" she says placing both arms on my neck

"Shani, this is my mum we're talking about, I can't ditch her for some futile trip"

"Some futile trip? So going to my parents' house is futile? Wow, Jong-in! You know what? Forget I even asked" she responds in a somewhat dejected tone

"Baby, I'm sorry. That's not what I meant"

"No, Jong-in. You very much meant it. You meant every single word." She says loudly as she walks away from me, goes into her room and slams the door shut.

- Ashani.

I storm into my bedroom and slam the door shut. I throw myself onto the bed and check the time on my phone, it's 10:20 am. I lay on my bed with my phone in my hand as I scroll through my call logs and dial Jackson's number.

-phone conversation-

"Hey loser, pack your bags, we have a flight at 13:30 pm"

"We? You and who? Because it's definitely not me. Also, where are you going?" he asks

"Oh come on, Wang. You're coming with me, I've already bought the flight tickets and we're going to England"

"Cool, I'll go" he says sarcastically

"Oh my gosh really?"

"No, I was being sarcastic"

"Wow, Jackson Wang, knows what sarcasm is and how it's used, nice!" I say as I slowly clap my hands

"Don't sass me, otherwise I'm not going to England with you"

"Jackson, please come with me, pretty please with a cherry on top?" I say in a toddler's high pitched voice

"Okay okay, I'll go, now stop talking. And lunch is on you" he responds quickly and excitedly

"How low of you, Wang! Making me pay for lunch?! I say acting surprised. I'll meet you at your place with my luggage in half an hour - ish."

"Great, can't wait" he says and hangs up the phone.

I continue packing up, I then zip up my bags and place them on the floor.
I check the time and it's now 11:05 am. I take my luggage with me downstairs only to find Jong-in sitting on the couch with his feet on the coffee table. I then take my car keys on the table.

"You've packed up, already?" he inquires

"Yes, Jong-in" I say rolling my eyes

He quickly gets up from the couch and walks toward me. He then quickly grabs my waist bringing me closer to him.

"Do not roll your eyes at me." he says looking me in my eyes, with both hands still on my waist.

"Oh come on, Jong-in, I see what you're trying to do and it's not working. Nice try" I say as I remove myself from his warm yet tempting embrace.

"Shani, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that your parents' house is a futile trip. Forgive me."

"Whatever, Jong-in. I'm leaving" I respond irriatedly as I make my way out of the penthouse with my bags, car keys, house keys and phone. Jong-in also follows me outside, I then make my way into the garage, unlock my blue Audi RS7-R and put all of my bags into the car boot. I get inside the car, reverse out of the garage and close it with a remote control.

"Shani, I -"

"Oh and, Jong-in, just lock up on your way out, love." I say wearing my Dior sunglasses and reversing out of the yard.
