The Convenient Store

*Grand Jewel’s Office Building, 10:45am*

Steven knocks on Ada Choi’s office door.

“Come in…” Ada was in her massaging chair.

“Ms. Choi you wanted to see me?” Steven walked in and placed his suitcase on the coffee table.

Ada had her eyes closed and relaxing, “So far your doing a good job, if you didn’t tip me off about the police investigating Derek Kwok then my cover would have been blown. How’s the progress between you and that police, Charmaine Sheh?”

Steven helped himself to a glass of wine and sat down on the lounge facing Ada, “It would of taken longer if you didn’t send those men to attack her.”

“Hows your arm?” Ada asked getting off the massage chair.

Steven pulled up his sleeve, “Its nothing much.”

Ada sat down next to Steven, “I know you did psychology, although police are very confidential about their cases but I want you to find out more about the progress of the case by Charmaine Sheh’s gestures and tone. Just use your skills to the most.”

“I will. That women would have never guessed,” Steven stood up and grabbed his suitcase; “I have to go to court now. I’ll let you know the progress.”

*Alexander Building, Floor 38 Apartment A, 6:19pm*

Raymond opens the door to his apartment, “I’m home!”

There was no response. Raymond threw his things on the couch and walked to the kitchen bench seeing a cup noodle with a note stuck to it reading DINNER. Raymond picks up the cup noodles and looks at it then throws it back on the kitchen bench.

Raymond walked back into the living room and heard key rattling noises in the hallway, he ran to the front door and opened it so fast and hard, he swang the door into his own head.

“Ouch…” Raymond shouted falling onto the ground.

Charmaine heard the loud thump from Raymond’s fall, she turned around seeing Raymond on the ground. She threw everything she had in her hands on the floor and ran to him.

“Are you alright?”

Raymond had no response.

Charmaine pulled him up by his shoulders and leaned him against her, “Raymond!”

Raymond leaned on Charmaine motionless.

Charmaine was really beginning to freak out, “Raymond, are you alright?”

Raymond who was pretending to have fainted snuggled closer to Charmaine, “I’m fine now,” wrapping his hands around her.

“Hey! I really thought you fainted,” she slapped him on the arm and stood up making him fall back to the ground hitting his head on the floor.

Charmaine walked back to her apartment looking pretty angry, Raymond jumped up and ran behind her, “Don’t be mad…”

Charmaine turned around with a fierce look in her eyes, the look she use to give Raymond when she hated him, “You know what? I don’t want to see to you ever again.”

Raymond’s face had turned into misery hearing her say those words, he looked at her with his saddened eyes and turned around and walked back to his apartment.

“Wait…” Charmaine ran behind him, “I was only joking… like when you were joking with me just then.”

Raymond’s smile was attached back to his face again, he turned around looking at Charmaine with a straight face. Charmaine touched the red mark on his forehead made by the door hitting him, “Does it hurt?”

Raymond couldn’t hold his smile in anymore, he took her hand and held it tightly, “My forehead would feel much better if I got a kiss if someone,” Raymond leaned closer to Charmaine.

“Then you can tell Bosco to give you a kiss,” Charmaine turned back to her door and walked in.

“Wait…” Raymond jumped inside her apartment before she closed the door, “what about that dinner?”

Charmaine threw her things on the table and walked into the kitchen looking for food, “Ron didn’t cook anything today, his hardly around these days.”

Raymond followed into the kitchen and looked around, “he’s probably with Bernice. Bosco’s never around either.”

Charmaine opened up the cupboard and took out two cup noodles, she turned around and showed Raymond and a huge grin on her face, “dinner?”

Raymond took one and smiled, “the best meal I am about to have.”

*Alexander Building, Floor 37 Apartment D, 7:10pm*

Bosco and Ron walked out of the kitchen both wearing aprons and hold two dishes each in their hands, “Dinners ready!”

“Great!” Jessica and Bernice jumped up from the couch and sat at the dinner table.

Jessica took a bite of Bosco’s dish, her eyes lit up, “this is the best thing I ever tasted,” and dug into the dish some more.

Bosco gave Ron the confident look and shook his head implying he would loose.

Bernice bit into Ron’s dish, “I defiantly found the right guy, this is so good.”

Ron turned and chuckled a little at Bosco.

Jessica and Bernice swapped dishes to taste, they looked at each other and winked, “It’s a tie again, I think you guys have to come back again.”

After dinner the four of them sat in the living talking, Ron began talking about Chinese tea, “I think you guys will be very interested to know that I have recently bought several packets of tea leaves all from different places in China. I bet you didn’t know that different types of tea not only taste different but the process of making the tea is different too…”

Ron kept on talk for the next twenty minutes about Chinese tea, the only person actually listening to him was Bernice. She sat there gazing at him thinking how charming her was.

Jessica sat with her eyes opened wide trying to focus while Bosco was actually asleep. Jessica looked at her watch thinking, “how can Bernice listen to him go on about tea leaves for so long.” She turned and looked at Bosco fast asleep and kicked him on his leg waking him up.

“What?” Bosco jumped up out of fright.

“Hey Bosco can you come with me to the convenient store?” Jessica winked at him hinting she wanted to leave Ron’s boring conversation.

Bosco knew she wanted to leave, “Oh… yeh sure.” Bosco and Jessica left the apartment quickly not being able to stand Ron’s boring talk.
-------------------------------------------
*Convenient Store, 8:15pm*

Jessica was looking at the magazines and Bosco had a basket full of snacks. Myolie walked pass the convenient store seeing Bosco, she ran in and tapped him on the shoulder.

“Hey!”

“Hey! What are you doing here?” Bosco knocking some things on the shelf off with his basket.

“I was just in the area. Are you doing anything tomorrow night? Did you want to have dinner?” Myolie asked.

Jessica walked over seeing Myolie there with Bosco, she gave Bosco a little grin, “Hey Myolie.”

Myolie was surprised to see Jessica, “Hey, what are you doing here?”

“Ron was having a boring talk so I pulled Bosco out to buy some stuff with me,” Jessica said throwing a magazine in the basket.

Myolie could feel the jealously inside of her seeing Bosco and Jessica having such a great relationship.

“Um… Bosco about dinner tomorrow night?” Myolie asked again.

“I’ll call you tomorrow about it, I might have to stay back at the station. If I don’t have to stay back why don’t you come by Jessica’s apartment and have dinner with us?” Bosco said as he lived there and could just invite who he wanted.

Myolie looked at Jessica for her approval, “Is that alright with you?”

“Sure, Bosco’s always at our house. He practically lives there so he can decide,” Jessica taking the basket of snacks to the counter.

“I’ll wait for your call then,” Myolie looked at her watch, “I have to go now. Remember to call me.”

Bosco waved goodbye to Myolie and walked to the counter was. She looked at him smiling.

“There is nothing going on between me and Myolie. I was being nice to a friend. So don’t go thinking other things. Ok?” Bosco explained.

Jessica smiled and nodded thinking, “Why is being so weird and always telling me about he having nothing to do with Myolie. That kid gets weirder by the day.”
