1 NEW NEIGHBOR (1/2)

It is no secret that love is an emotion that gets the heart beating. Whether it be rapidly, sometimes slowly, other times in a sweet rhythmic thump or even in a painful tone, we felt it all. We had an over-all idea of what love was from watching many romance movies, to receiving love from family and friends. Yet still, we were enthralled at how some romance movies made our hearts pound for the characters sad, painful, and happy moments. We never once imagined we would get to experience this emotion. So strong, yet so passionate, love brought us together. With entwined bodies, lips locking, soul mating, we hopelessly found love. This heart pounding, sweet sounding doom..doom..thump..thump that enveloped that small important and delicate muscle hiding behind our left breast; We found love.

Zunnie closed her eyes tightly and leaned back into the office chair. She took a deep breath to help relax her tensed nerves. It had been a long day and the headache which had slowly crept its way to her temples reminded her it was time to head home. The clients she had seen today required a few more therapy sessions. The teenage girl with anorexia had been her hardest patient today. But the good thing was that she came to get help so that was a great step. Turning off her computer, she grabbed her things and headed towards ”Secretary Nyo's office.”

He was still there. 'Did I not tell him to head home 4 hours earlier?'

'My wristwatch, is clearly showing 9pm.'

Ehh emm... She cleared my throat loudly.

”Might I ask, why are you still here?” She inquired giving him a cold stare.

”Ahh! Miss Zunnie I was just finishing the documents for the meeting tomorrow morning.”

”Are you done now?”

”Yes Miss Zunnie. I will walk out with you.”

”Haha! Stop calling me Miss Zunnie Nyo or I will smack you behind your head and deduct your pay.

Even if I am older than you, since when have you been so formal!”

Nyo giggled loudly as he grabbed his jacked and bag-pack.

”Did you get all your homework done? I don't want your mom to nag me today about you staying late to do homework, even though it's Friday.”

Nyo is her favorite aunts' son. He usually came to her office to get his homework done since he claimed he got more stuff done there. He would sit in the lounge area outside the office and quietly get his studying done. How diligent this naughty little boy was, when it came to school. At ten years old he was already so handsome. He's sweet smile always melted Zunnie's heart after a long day. Although he said he wanted to come work for her, what she did had nothing do with art. She couldn't help but laugh at his enthusiasm.

”So, does you staying here so late means I have to buy you dinner and take you home?”
