“Good evening sir, you called me” Mr. Smith’s bodyguard, Flying dragon, greeted with a bow.

“Yeah, I want you to do me a favour?”

“Sir, I’m at your services anytime”

“Cool, look for a group of a$sassins for me” He said, the bodyguard was dumbfounded…

“A group of… assa… ” He stammered.

“What is wrong with you? I didn’t ask you to be the as$assinator for me, I just want you to hire them for me”

The young man moped at him like a dummy.

“Just tell me that you can’t do it” Mr Smith waved at his face.

“I can do it sir! I’ll find an as$assin for you” Flying Dragon said. “If there’s nothing else, I beg to leave first” he added, bowed and left.

“I can’t wait until the day comes, the day I’ll sit upon that chair, to be hailed and called the CEO of that company” Mr Smith smiled and sipped a little of his drink.

“You should wait for your de.ath. I’m tired of keeping quiet, it is time for me to take over” he muttered and laughed loudly.

Sofia was awoken by a noise, an annoying noise disturbing her from her peaceful sleep this morning.

“Oh dmn! Gosh, what’s with the sound?” she groaned, turning around the bed.

The noise was becoming very stuffy as she indignantly woke up! Opening her eyes she saw her room decorated with so many flowers and balloons.

She used her palm to clean her eyes just to make sure she wasn’t hallucinating, then opened it to a cheer…

“It’s your birthday, honey” Her father’s voice echoed in her mind and snapped her back to reality. She seems to have been dreaming before.

“Oh good morning dad, morning mom” She greeted them and embraced them happily.

“Happy birthday, my princess” Her mother cheered, pecking her cheeks.

She was amazed by the decorations they made. How come she overslept that she couldn’t detect when they were doing it.

“Oh, you see honey, we’re sorry to say this… But, we can’t stay and do the party with you, we have important things to do at the company” Her father said to her, with a sad look on his face, they would have loved to stay for her birthday party, but duty calls.

“Don’t worry much, I understand. You don’t have to worry, my friends will be there. Thanks Mom, thanks Dad” She hugged them again.

Her mom brought the gift she bought specially for this day and presented it to her. “Here, sweetie. Enjoy your day. You can take your time in opening it”

Mrs Williams planted a kss on her daughter’s forehead, all smiles.

“Oh mom, thanks,” she appreciated their efforts to make her happy.

“And this is the wristwatch you requested from me. Don’t worry, I will get you a surprise gift when I come back and I will take you on a tour to Paris”

Opening the box, she found a wristwatch, necklace and earrings. Exactly what she needs to wear to her party.

“Oh Daddy, thanks for the gift. I love you two,” she jumped down from the bed and hugged them more closely.

“Okay, go and enjoy your birthday party, we will be going now” They went out of the room feeling really sad because they weren’t able to stay with her on her special day.

“We can’t go dude, she didn’t invite us” Justin’s friend, Tyler, teased, scoffing.

“Seriously guys, I’m going and nothing can change my mind about it. Can’t you understand? I like her and she must be my girlfriend” Justin stood his ground.

“She’s the reason why I attend that school, the reason why I came to korean” Justin murmured and his friends bursted into laughter.

“Oh my gosh, you did that for a girl who barely notices you? Who are you, John Legend? He’s love struck” Tyler teased.

“Shut the fk, Tyler! Aren’t you the same person that was crushing on her before Molly? He uttered and they kept mute.

“By hook or by crook, I gotta get to that party, I need to make her mine today!”

He paused and ignored his friends who were staring at him hysterically as he went to dress up for the party.

“Come on dude, this is insane, going to a party that you are not invited to, all in the name of love!” Franko smirked.

“How do you even plan to get her? By hook or by crook, wait up, are you planning to rape that girl?” Greg asked curiously.

“I’m not stopping you since you have made up your mind to go. But I hope you don’t do something stupid to her. She might be all arrogant and bossy, but she doesn’t deserve to be hurt” Tyler said thoughtfully.

They followed him to the party. Two security guards could be seen on the gate dressed in a uniform as a young lady approached them with her invitation card.

Justin and his friends knew they can’t go in except they have their invitation cards, but he is determined to make entrance no matter what.

They walked to the gate and were stopped by the guards.

“Where’s your invitation card?” one of the men asked as he noticed that they wanted to sneak in without dropping their cards.

“Oh, we forgot it at home,” he lied.

“I’m sorry but I can’t let you in, if you think you really forget it, you can call her, I don’t want to lose my job” the man said.

“I don’t have her number, please just let me in,” he pleaded, rumpling his head, all pissed off by the time he wasted.

“I think I know them. You guys can go inside,” One of the guards said after somewhile.

“That man just save us” Tyler muttered as they all went inside the Hotel’s big event center.

Justin turned worriedly to look at the man that just let them in, he looked really familiar to him.

“What is it, Justin?” Tyler inquired

“I don’t know, I kinda feel like I know that man that let us in. His voice and face looks familiar, but I can’t remember where I have seen him before” he answered.

“That shouldn’t be a problem, the good news is, we were able to get in. Come on man!” Tyler put a hand on his shoulder and dragged him forward.

The party was a big one when they got in. Justin was amazed at the number of expensive cars parked at the hotel’s parking lot.

There were a lot of people, especially rich kids. There are many things one could do. Many people were in the swimming pool, others were dancing and some sat at different tables to chat, dine and wine.

Justin smiled at himself immediately he spotted her, what he needed was to at least spend time together with her, the queen of his heart.

He knows what he wants and knows that he wants her, and he doesn’t waste time to get it no matter the circumstances. Today is going to be superb, that he was sure.

He took two glasses of red wine from a waiter and went to her table. She was talking seriously with her friends.

Justin didn’t know when his friends left, or where they went and he didn’t care. He walked over to stand behind her and whisper close to her ear.

“Happy birthday, babe,” He chuckled

“How on earth were you able to get in here, I’m very sure my friends didn’t give you the invitation card!” She pondered when she spun around to see him.

“That doesn’t matter, okay? What matters is today being your birthday and I want you to have fun! Lots of it. Here… drink this, it is specially given to you by me from my heart. Don’t say no, less my heart shatters” he said poetically.

Her friends exchanged looks, coughed and left them alone. They think it is high time their Team Queens number one princess enjoys a love life.

“How pathetic, which of the poets did you steal his or her lines? Anyway, I’m taking this ’cause I’m thirsty and I needed one” she said proudly and accepted the drink.

“You love it?” He grinned and sat down beside her.

“It’s not like you bought it, I actually paid for all of these so stop acting!” She glared at him.

“You are not really as hardheaded as you pose to be, there’s a softness to you that people don’t notice. Thanks for taking my drink, love” he touched the tip of her nose.

Sophia swatted his hand away and took a mouthful of the wine to calm her nerves. She can’t tell if it is the guy’s open flirtations that is turning her insides on or the wine.

“Excuse me, I gotta go to the bathroom, I think I’m pressed,” she pushed herself away from the table and stood up.

Justin nodded and kept drinking, he felt somehow too, but it might be the effect of taking red wine for the first time, he had thought.

He went to the bathroom to find her after somewhile. She wasn’t there, he went upstairs and checked the rooms.

“Sophia?” He called softly when he found her in one of the rooms.

“What are you doing here? Are you alright?” He asked and helped her sit down properly on the bed.

“I don’t know what’s happening to me, call my friends for me, please, I feel so dizzy, dmnit!” she mumbled, looking at him dazedly.
