Chapter 22

A/N

Enjoy the chapter!!

Jai P.O.V.

I woke up to not my alarm, but Amiga coming on top of me and settling herself on my waist. I felt her nails slightly dig into my skin through the blanket. It made sense since I haven't cut her nails in a while.

"Oh, ow, oww Amigaa!" I reacted, but she could care less.

She kept twirling and twirling until she was finally comfortable, and put all of her weight on me, making my body jolt up in pain, "Oww you're to heavy Amigaa!!" I groaned. She's only a corgi, and females weigh 29 pounds maximum.

But I wasn't in the mood.

It was early, too early.

So, I just pushed her off of me and she landed next to me on the bed. Amiga tried getting back up on top of me, but I was already getting up from bed, "Haha, you thought." I laughed at her.

It was still a little bit dark outside, which was disappointing to see. Today I got to sleep in, because I finished all the work I had and my boss literally said these exact words, "I don't care when you come to work."

So, my definition of sleeping in was when the sun fully rose, and I would wake up to a bright view.

But no.

I can't have what I want.

I unplugged my phone from the charger, to see what the time was: 6:30.

I rubbed and stretched my face in annoyance, "I woke up a whole hour early. UGH!!" I turned to eye Amiga, "This is all your fault." She looked at me for a second, then continued on to whatever she was doing. "Hmph, meanie." I pouted.

I realized while brushing my teeth that I slept through the whole night, without waking up once. I high fived myself and smiled because it's a very rare occasion.

I finished brushing, washed my face, and gave Amiga her breakfast while eating cereal because I didn't have any energy to make anything. Quickly I gulped down the goods and checked the time: 7:00.

"Oh, it's still early. Oh wait of course it is." I glared at Amiga once again and made out hand gestures of anger at her while she was stuffing her face into her food. We headed our way to the couch and turned on the T.V. I debated on whether to watch anime or a romcom. "Hmm, shit I don't know." So, my only solution was to hold out two fists to Amiga, the left for rom-com and the right for anime.

"Choose." I said to her as she looked at my fists.

After long thought, she raised her paw and landed it onto my right hand. "OK! Anime it is!" I smiled at her, ultimately forgiving the actions she displayed before.

Even though she never apologized in the first place.

I immediately settled myself back on the couch and played the show as Amiga rested herself on my lap. After a couple of episodes, I checked the time again: 7:45.

"Ok, I think I should start getting ready now."

I had to wake up Amiga since she fell asleep and realized how numb my legs became after she left. I wobbled as I stood up, but eventually retained my balance and went to go get changed.

I settled on a navy button-up with several tiny polka dots scattered all over, with black trousers and my signature socks. Usually, men can be known for their crazy ties or shoes, but in my case it's socks. It's just that no one really knows me for that, which is unfortunate because they don't know what they're missing out on. My trousers, unfortunately, cover most of the beautiful art that is covering my feet, but no one knows that I'm secretly rebelling the dress code. It makes me feel like a total badass. Today, I wore my taco socks which were a new pair, so I was extra excited.

I finished getting ready, put my shoes on, grabbed my coat and essentials, and kissed Amiga bye. As I passed Sahana's door I couldn't help remembering that incident. She hasn't talked to me ever since I asked to be friends with her.

I sighed and shook my head, "Stop thinking about it Jai."

As I was about to reach the elevator, I stepped on something. I lifted my foot up and saw what was lying below it.

Keys?

I bent down and picked them up to have a better look at it, "These are Sahana's."

A tiny key chain with a picture of Monty was dangling, gave it away. "I wonder if she's still here, maybe she ubered?"

I checked the time: 8:30.

"Fuck, I have to sprint if I want to catch her." And raced to the elevator, pressing the button rapidly until it finally opened and entered in. Once the elevator reached down to the garage floor, I exited and opened the door to the garage to see Kai and Sahana together, which significantly slowed down my pace.

Thank god I got her in time.

"Sahana? Kai? What are you guys doing?" I asked in confusion. "Oh, she just couldn't find her keys, so I am helping her Jai." Kai answered. After hearing that, I reached into my pocket,

"Oh,"

and took them out,

"You mean these?"

Sahana's eyes and mouth slowly started to widen and words eventually came out, "WHERE DID YOU FIND THOSE?!" she yelled and sprinted towards me then yanked her keys out of my hand. "I found them on the floor while leaving to work." I responded.

She looked like she was going to cry, I didn't know whether out of joy or sadness. "A-are you ok?" I asked, placing a hand on her shoulder, making her slightly flinch.

Then out of nowhere,

"HOLD UP. WHAT ABOUT ME?"

We turned our heads to a confused looking Kai, looking at Sahana and at me again and again. "Oh sorry, let me introduce you to one another. Sahana, this is Kai my friend," I gestured.

"Best friend," Kai interrupted. I rolled my eyes.

"Kai, this is Sahana,"

I really didn't want to say it,

"My neighbor." I said looking at him.

"Ohh that's why I thought you looked familiar," she smiled, "OH YEAH! You were with those girls at the café and made Jai pay. How did I forget already?" Kai replied laughing and pointing at me then suddenly stopped, recollecting what he had just heard.

"Wait, what? You guys are neighbors? How come you didn't tell me Jai?"

Oh god please help me.

Instead, I just decided not to reply.

Now we just stood there, in the awkward silence. Kai was eyeing at me for an answer. But thankfully Sahana broke the silence, "Um, I better get going now, it's really late. Thanks, Jai, for finding my keys, and nice seeing you again Kai." She said before entering her car and finally leaving to work.

And now Kai and I were alone.

"Well, that was an interesting morning."
