Visiting John's place

The next day came Jian was up working on the dresses once again trying to finish all of them. John on the other hand made them all breakfast while the two talked, and soon around 4 in the afternoon Jian finished 4 out of the five dresses she had.

She sighed looking down at her hands there were band aids on 5 of her fingers from all the repetitive movements when she accidentally poked herself with the needles. "Here let me take this off your hands, and you can eat this," John said passing her a plate of fruits as he took the dress away from her, cleaning up the lose threads and placing all the needles away. He placed the dress back on the dress form before covering it.

"John, you haven't been home since Friday, right?" Jian asked as she got up to stretch. He nodded asking, "Ya, you still wanna come over for a bit?"

"Sure, can I mom?" Jian asked glancing at Jessica who sat on the other side of the sofa typing away. She looked up saying, "What was that Jian?" Jian smiled asking, "I wanted to go over to John's place for a bit this afternoon is that alright?"

Jessica nodded saying, "Alright, will you be back for dinner?" Jian smiled saying, "I don't know, but I will be back by 9 since it's a school day tomorrow." Jessica hummed as she turned her attention back to the laptop. Jian smiled getting up to get ready before the two left.

"Let me," John said as he reached for her laptop bag and she nodded passing the bag to him as they walked out the elevator asking, "Did you think my mom was acting a little strange today?"

He shook his head replying, "She seemed okay, the only difference is she didn't ask too many questions." Jian nodded and he smiled saying, "You know there might be a way to cheer her up."

"How?" Jian asked excited and he laughed a little before saying, "Give her a gift." She nodded as an idea appeared in her head. "Do you think we can stop by Isabella's shop on the way or is that too far?" Jian asked as he passed her a helmet.

"How about we go there after stopping by my place, and we can also grab some dinner on the way back home," John suggested as he placed her bag away. Jian nodded as she got on and the two left the parking lot for John's home.

...

"Here's a photo album and it would be nice if you could pick out an outfit for me as well as a restaurant for dinner," John said as he placed a book on the table and Jian got up from the bed asking, "Do you want me to make reservations too?" He nodded as he walked towards the restroom. Jian sighed as she laid back down before searching through her phone for a good spot near Isabella's shop.

Then she got up and walked towards the closet looking at the dark shelves before she looked at her own outfit. It was a pair of jean shorts and a white tank top with a sheer lace cardigan she had made as a break project.

Jian spent a few minutes looking through the drawers before picking out a white t-shirt with flowers blooming from the shoulders down and pairing it with some black wide leg denim shorts. Then she chose a par of white socks and some silver accessories to bring out the silver belt.

"Did you finish?" John asked as he stepped inside. Jian nodded trying to choose a watch. He smiled taking a step forward saying, "The one on the left is better."

"Yes, but the one on the right is working," Jian said and she sighed continuing, "You can choose, I will wait outside." She turned around only then noticing that he was right behind her, and she glanced at him as he smirked slightly.

Jian noticed wanting to tease him a little as she looked up at his eyes getting on her toes to whisper in his ears, "You need to work out more." His smirk dropped as she stepped to the side before walking out closing the doors behind her. He looked up at the mirror before tossing the towel to the side. He changed quickly walking out noticing Jian on the bed typing away.

"What are you doing?" John asked and Jian smiled looking up saying, "fixing up the website from before."
