31 A FIVE MINUTES DECISION (2/2)

What a dilemma. If she said yes, her family and friends would finally get off her back. If she said no would her time with Alex be over?

”Can I think about it?”

”Sure, you have five minutes.” Alex got off the bed and went downstairs leaving a confused and shocked Zunnie alone in the room.

”W-wait, what do you mean five minutes...I need more time?”

Alex stopped in his tracks and turned to the cute girl sitting on the bed, ”You have five minutes to decide, I'll be back then.”

He walked out of the room, shutting the door behind him.

”You're being unfair Mr. Zi!” Zunnie shouted at the tightly shut bedroom door.

”What a bossy jerk!” She mumbled and fell back onto the pillows.

Alex knew he wasn't being fair, but he was a businessman after all. When he wanted a client to sign he did his best to get them. He was certain that if he gave Zunnie Bai more time she would waver, so he gave her only five minutes.

'That should be enough for her to come to a decision.'

He walked to the freezer and pulled out a grape flavored ice pop. Alex sat on the couch then grabbed his phone. The entire night he had not checked his phone, so he had a few messages.

There were a few missed calls from his grandparents. Natalia had sent him a few messages…he had a few emails but opened none of them. He was about to lock his phone but stopped, seeing a familiar name.

Alex opened the message from Zunnie and smiled when he saw it. He was surprised that she had taken this really good picture of him.

He opened his phone gallery and played the short video he had secretly taken of Zunnie. She was gazing at the night sky and spinning in circles as she giggled.

Alex had watched her every move in admiration but had quickly hidden his phone and pretended he was looking up at the night sky when she stopped and crouched over her knees.

He checked the time…it was five minutes. Alex put the phone down and walked up the stairs back into the master bedroom.

If she said no, he would get her pregnant and take responsibility. If she said yes…
