The sound of the alarm rings on the four walls of Copter's bedroom waking the said man. With a groan, he reached for his phone to shut the alarm off and checks for any notification on his device with squinting eyes still adjusting at the blinding light of the screen.
From: Bas
Time: 3:47 AM
"Dude, better not be late. I will not accept any excuses"
Another groan escapes Copter's throat as he received a new notification.
From: Bas
Time: 6:03 AM
"Are you already awake?"
To: Bas
Time: 6:04 AM
"Yeah, just woke up"
From: Bas
Time: 6:04 AM
"Then move your ass dude!"
Copter rolled his eyes, completely awake now and irritated. He sits and stretched his limbs before returning back to his device.
To: Bas
Time: 6:07 AM
"Calm down dude, the opening ceremony will be 2 hours from now."
From: Bas
Time: 6:08 AM
"That I know! But we need to be earlier than the said time"
Damn this kid knows how to reply fast.
To: Bas
Time: 6:09 AM
"Bas, it's your shop, not mine. I can arrive on time."
From: Bas
Time: 6:09 AM
"But I need you for emotional support"
Copter had the urge to laugh but instead he replied the kid.
To: Bas
Time: 6:10 AM
"Okay, I'll be moving then, stop texting me."
He hopped off of his bed and ignore the notification sound then proceeded to his bathroom to take a shower and dress himself a decent button down white shirt and with black pants, not to loose, not too tight. To top it off, he slid on to his sneakers and made a last glimpse of his reflection on the mirror before he took his keys and went to the shop.
"P'Cop!!!" Bas shouted at the sight of Copter walking towards the shop. The latter just smiled and waved at him.
"Glad you're not late"
"Glad I'm not. You ready?" Copter asked Bas while patting the latter's shoulder.
"More than ready! I'm excited" said Bas gleefully with sparks in his eyes.
After a couple of minutes, the opening ceremony started and finished just like in a blink of an eye but it doesn't stop the sparks beaming around Bas as he thank everyone congratulating him on opening his shop.
"Congrats on your flower shop, Bas" whispered Copter when they were secluded from the guests who are now wondering on the shop and checking varieties of flowers displayed in every corner of the shop.
"Thanks P', I couldn't believe it."
"Well better believe it now, it's here. It's your dream coming into your life right before your eyes"
"I know right?" A big smile still plastered on Bas face still scanning the shop.
"Hey Bas, congratulations on opening your flower shop!" A tall, fair man tapped Bas shoulders with a sweet smile on his face.
"P'Tee! Glad you made it! And thank you!" Bas said while pulling the taller one into a hug.
"Where's P'Tae?" Copter asked.
"Oh Copgi, looking good as usual, eh?" Said Tee with a hint of teasing on his tone. "P'Tae is just outside, parking the car"
After a few minutes, Tae showed up. "Hi Bas, congrats on your shop".
