“Fine.” Leila answered and she left.
“Well I’ll see you there at 5:30” Bosco yelled after her.
Bosco was driving home from work, and he thought about dinner. He made a quick stop before going home. Once he got back to his apartment, he changed from his usual dress shirt and tie to something more casual, a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. He started the coffee maker, and at 5:27, Bosco’s doorbell rang, he went to open the door and saw Leila standing there in a pair of pajama pants that were blue with penguins and a white tank top. Over her left shoulder was her laptop bag, and in her left hand she was holding stacks of folders and notebooks. In her right hand she had a bag filled with chips and cookies.
“Wah, what is this? A sleepover or something?
“I don’t think there is anything wrong with my attire. If I’m going to work I plan to do so comfortably.”
“And what about the junk food?”
“These are my secret weapons. They helped me every time I had to stay up and cram when I was in college.”
“Have you had dinner yet?” Bosco asked
Leila shook her head.
“I bought some take-out, there are some California rolls and some stir-fried noodles on the table.”
Leila opened the boxes, “Mmm-mm…smells so good.”
“Hurry and eat up, we have a lot of work to do.”
Leila and Bosco quickly ate their dinner, cleared the dining table and got to work.
Leila turned on her laptop while Bosco went into his kitchen and poured two cups of coffee for them, “How much sugar do you want in your cup?”
“Three teaspoons,” Leila said as she flipped through her notes.
They began working on the proposal separately. After several hours, Leila looked at her watch, it was already 2:50. She yawned and stretched her arms out.
“If you’re tired, go to sleep, la.” Bosco told her.
“Really?” Leila asked excitedly.
“Yeah, I can handle the work.”
“I just need a short nap, 25 minutes, okay.”
“I was just kidding about going to sleep.”
“Come on, just 25 minutes please.” Leila begged
Bosco gave in, “Fine, go take your nap.”
“Great!” Leila hopped up from her seat and began to walk to Bosco’s room.
“Wai, where are you going?” Bosco asked as he got up and followed her.
Leila was already in his bed and pulling the covers over herself.
“What do you think you’re doing? This is my bedroom and you’re sleeping in my bed. When I said to go get some sleep, I meant in your own room. You’re not that lazy are you? Your apartment is just two steps away.”
“I’m just sleeping for 25 minutes, if I go back to my apartment I’ll just be waking Myolie up by opening and closing the door.”
Bosco thought about it, and she did make sense, “Fine you can sleep here.” Bosco turned to leave.
“Hey, if I’m not up in 25 minutes then come wake me, okay?”
Bosco nodded and closed the door. He went to the kitchen and poured himself another cup of coffee. He sat in front of his computer and continued to type the proposal.
30 minutes later Bosco went into his room to wake Leila up, he saw her sleeping soundly like a child, and she looked so comfortable. He didn’t have the heart to wake her up. He gently pulled the covers over her and quietly turned off the lights and closed the door.
Once again, Bosco retuned to his seat. He looked at all the work that needed to be finish, “Looks like it just going to be me and you” He patted the top of his computer,” hopefully I’ll be able to finish all this”

Leila turned and looked at the clock located on Bosco nightstand. She looked at the bright green number, he eyes widen immediately, she couldn’t believe her eyes, it was 8:05. She had slept for 5 hours!
“Eeekk! OMG!!! Why didn’t Bosco wake me up!” She quickly pulled the covers off and jumped out of the bed. She went out of the room and saw Bosco at the dining room table asleep with his head lying on his arm.
Leila was about to open her mouth and yell at him for not waking her up and falling asleep himself. She was about to reach for one of her files, but she realized everything was put away, all the notebooks and folders were in a nice stack, her laptop was turned off. Then she noticed two black portfolios set aside from the rest of the files. She picked them up and looked through the pages. Bosco had finished all the work and it had exactly what she wanted. Bosco included all her ideas. She smiled and carefully placed the portfolios back down on the table.
Leila went back to Bosco’s room, she took this time to look around his room. She saw a lot of model cars on his shelf. Then there were piles of medical books, all of which had multi-colored post-its flagged in them. Then she noticed two picture frames, the first one was Bosco standing next to a girl with long black hair and brown highlights at the beach in their swimsuits. He had his arm around her shoulder. The other was of another pretty girl with short hair who had her arm linked around Bosco’s arm. “Must be his girlfriends” Leila concluded to herself.
Then she noticed a black telescope in front of Bosco’s huge balcony window. She pushed the balcony door open and stepped out to feel the cool morning breeze. She was enjoying it very much when she remembered they had to me the yeun jurn at 9 to him their proposal.
She went to wake Bosco up, “Get up la!” she shook his shoulder.
“Huh? Oh you’re up already. What time is it?”
“Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“I figured I could finish it up so I didn’t see much of a point in waking you up.”
“Well you better go get ready. We only have 30 minutes to get ready and get to the hospital. I’m going back to my apartment now. I’ll see you at the hospital. Don’t be late.”
Leila took a quick shower, got dressed and headed to the hospital in her car, but half way there her car stopped moving. She tried to restart the engine, but it was no use, her car had died. She slammed her hand on the steering wheel, “Great! Why must you always die when I’m in a hurry?” She grabbed her purse and got out of her car hoping she’d be able to catch a taxi.
Bosco drove right past Leila without even noticing her at first, but then he made a U-turn, “Wai, your car died again?”
Leila nodded, but continued to stand there waiting for a taxi.
“Well are you going to get in?” Bosco asked impatiently, “If you don’t then we’ll both be late.”
Leila quickly got in as Bosco drove to the hospital, and they made it just in time.
Handing the files to the yurn jurn, “If there’s anything wrong or if you have questions we’ll be glad to fix it or explain it to you.” Bosco said.
“I’m really sorry I gave you two such a short amount of time to work on this. I will take a look over this today and tell you guys what I think as soon as possible so you can start the actual planning. If I notice any problems I’ll notify you, but I doubt there will be anything wrong. I wouldn’t expect anything less than perfect from the two of you.”

“Okay, I’ve looked over Dr. Wong and Dr. Tong’s proposal for the fundraising event, and I think it is a great idea. Now I’ll let them briefly inform the rest of you on their idea and let them divide up any work they have for you all.” The yurn jurn announced and left.
“The idea Leila and I came up was has two separate parts, the first part is a fashion show. The doctors, including you guys here, and a few nurses will model clothes we receive from sponsors. Then we’ll auction off the clothes. The second part will be a dinner and then a ball type dance will follow afterwards.” Bosco explained.
“We’ll be sending invitations out to people to come. They will be asked for a donation if they do come.” Leila continued, “There’s nothing we need help on, Bosco and I have already contacted all the sponsors. They were very eager to help. So all we need you guys to do is be here early that night and model the clothes.”
“Wah, I’ve never thought I could be a mo-del.” Bowie joked, “I don’t think I meet the requirements…not tall enough, not handsome enough…hai, but now…thank you Bosco and Leila, you’ve made my dream come true!”
“No prob, Bowie. Never knew you wanted to be a model.”
“So what type of clothes will we be modeling?” Patrick asked.
“It’ll mostly be evening gowns for the women, and suits for the guys. Then there’s some casual wear.” Leila answered, “Oh, yeah, and we have a bridal company sponsor who wants us to model their wedding gowns. We need two couples for that.”
“I want to model with Myolie!” Bowie exclaimed while raising his hand like a little child wanting to be picked for a team.
“No no, Bowie you and Myo don’t match at all. You’re too old for her.” Bosco protested.
“Me? Old?” Bowie said in a surprised tone, “Fine, Hawick I’ll let you do it instead.” He said as he patted Hawick’s back.
“No no! Hawick’s too young.” Bosco protested again.
“Wai! Bosco!” Bowie slammed his hand on the table, “why do you keep objecting to everyone pairing with Myolie?” Bowie asked. “Ah…I know la, you want to do it yourself huh.” He pointed his finger at Bosco. “Just admit it la.”
“Of course not, I was thinking Myolie and Raymond would match more.”
“I second that” Leila supported.
“You two are actually agreeing on something, that’s a first.” Raymond spoke up. “Well Myolie, it’s not likely that the two of them can get along. What do you say we do it for their sake?”
“I don’t really care, but I suppose we could, if it’ll make them happy.”
“It’ll make me very happy!” Bosco exclaimed.
Myolie looked at him weird, “And it make you happy because…?”
“Ummm…anyways we need another couple.” Leila changed the subject to help Bosco out.
“How about you two”, Bowie suggested.
“No way!” They objected
“We have to help get things ready, we can’t be models. How about Patrick and Melissa?” Leila suggested.
Everyone agreed and things were set.
“Great, then everything’s settled. We’ll have the clothes ready for you guys to try before the actual day.” Leila said happily.
