Wilted Roses

"Kai…what a nice name," Amelia smiled and her boyfriend looked up, pointing a fork at her like it was a sword. She ignored him and hugged Kai who went stiff and looked at Chelsea in confusion. She waved her hand. 'She's always like that,' her eyes said. Kai nervously laughed as Chelsea pulled away and introduced Rose to him. 

"She's a fellow Lik-Roker like me."

Kai nodded, acting like he didn't know who she was. "Yes, I've seen you both."

"Do you like me videos?" Rose asked innocently, blinking her eyelashes. 

"Uh, actually I don't use the app much…" Rose and Amelia deflated and walked past him while Chelsea broke out into wide smile. She took Kai's hand and squeezed it. Kai looked at her, breaking out from the awkwardness of meeting her sister. 

Once they were seated at the table, Kai and Chelsea sat opposite each other, Kim Tan entered in and they all stood as if he was the king. The stoic faced politician straightened his coat and sat down.
