Ahjumma Next Door

Chapter 27: Taking Chances

Sean gritted his teeth and tried to control himself.

He wasn't able to sleep because of the girl who was beside him, whose arms wrapped around him comfortably the whole night. He almost lost his sanity controlling himself and his raging hormones when she accidentally wrapped her leg across his thighs.

He tried earlier to wriggle himself free from Charlotte but unfortunately, the girl held to him tighter and the movements just didn't help for her thighs were revealed for his eyes to indulge on.

"Shit...'' he cursed feeling himself now in pain.

Charlotte stirred in her sleep and nuzzled Sean's neck thinking it was her rilakkuma stuff toy.

But then she felt something hard poking her thighs. Slowly, she fluttered her eyes open.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"

*PUNCH! KICK!*

"AAAAAAAACKKKK!!!

*BLAG!!!*

"OUCH!!! WHAT THE HELL???!!!" Sean held onto his jaw and butt in pain.

"You!!!! You!!!" Charlotte covered herself with the sheets. "What the hell were you up to? What did you do to me???"

Sean stood up with an annoyed face.

"You're seriously asking me that huh? Why don't you ask yourself what the fucking hell you did to me and my... AISHT!!!''

Charlotte tried to remember everything that happened last night. She cursed menatlly and immediately hit her head. She's a heavy sleeper. And she loves cuddling her rilakkuma stuff toy.

She didn't know she was cuddling with this panda althroughout the night.

"I... I didn't know! S-s-orry." she said. "B-but still... You're..."

"I'm a man... But I didn't do anything if that's what you want to know. I respect you even if my sanity almost hung by a thread." Sean said before standing up and leaving her room.

Samantha looked at her own reflection in the mirror.

Hair, check.

Dress, check.

Shoes, check.

She squinted her eyes as she thought for a moment.

''What did I miss?'' she took her phone out and looked at the group photo she had with the girls before they went out last night.

''Ah, I need to buy those... Those...''

*DING DONG!*

Samantha grabbed her bag thinking that it's the driver that would bring her to SB & Co.

Yes.

She decided to check the work area Brooke was bragging her about the last time they talked about the building renovation. So she called her up earlier that she's going. Brooke could never be happier with the news. She insisted she'll have her fetched.

Apart from that, the first thing that came to her mind was the chance to see her mother again. Brooke just told her that Emma will pay a visit to the office and the news

made her so excited she decided she had to look her best.

She needs to show them what she can do.

She needs to prove them herself.

By then, perhaps, she can talk to her grandfather. By then perhaps she won't see the hesitation on his face anymore.

And by then she can introduce herself to her mom. And she can ask about her father's identity.
