Bang! Bang! Bang!
Zi Mei cracked open her eyes at the loud banging sounds on her front door. She rubbed her eyes and look at her bedside clock. It is only seven o'clock in the morning. Who is banging on her door so early in the morning? She has a doorbell, why the heck can't they use that?
She sat up groggily. Her room is still dark as she had gotten blackout curtains so that she could sleep in when she wanted.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The banging sounds continued.
Okay, okay, hold your horses, she mumbled. She stretched and got down from her bed. She walked to the ensuite bathroom and splashed some water on her face. She took her time to brush her teeth, comb her hair and changed into proper clothes - a t-shirt and khakis - before going downstairs. Whoever it is, is still banging on the door.
Thorin did as what he said he will do. Ever wondered what Zi Mei's life will be like if she had never met Thorin? Well, you will find out in the next few chapters.
Update will be up tomorrow.
