Chương 2: She Had A Dream
The apartment diagonally from Zunnie's had been empty for a few months now and she was fine with that. Even though there were times she was overly curious as to who would move in, she had stopped peeking to see if someone had. Inspite of that, she would look towards the door and listen for movement whilst reminding herself that it was alright to be curious. After all, who wasn't curious when it came to their neighbors. Don't they say, precaution is better than cure when you're a little bit nosy?
Lake-view Condos has been her home for three years now and she loved it. From the serenity to the night view, one could say it was a slice of heaven in Una City. The lake and garden had a calmness to it. Trying to keep a healthy lifestyle, she often went for morning jogs or walked around the small park nearby.
There was a gym on the second floor of her building where she would go to occasionally. A few meters away from the complex was a small shopping mall with a few designer stores and a grocery market.
Lake-View Condos seemed like a small village on the city outskirts. The condos were costly to rent, but the safety and comfort of the residents was a priority. It was a safe and gated area.
On her way to the elevator, she noticed that the people moving in going towards it. Zunnie wanted to stay out of their way, so she walked to towards the stairs and made her way to her floor.
"Oh, I need to call Sanua! She should have landed by now." She said as she pulled her phone from her bag and dialed a number.
The phone rang twice before Sanua picked up.
"Well, if it ain't Zunnie Boo!"
"Hey darling, how was your flight?"
"Too long. Are you home yet?"
"I just got in. Are we still on for dinner tomorrow? Will give you enough time to sleep in since it's Saturday." Zunnie replied smiling.
"Yes girl, you definitely know me. I've missed you and I look forward to partying till we can't no more tomorrow night."
'Ha-ha, this girl sure loves to party.' Zunnie smiled as she listened to the latest gossip about Sanua's famous friends.
"Hey San, how's your mom. Is she doing any better?" Zunnie inquired after hearing enough juicy gossip.
Mrs. Luo was in her late fifties and has been suffering from constant headaches. She recently had a doctor's visit, and they told her she had a tumor on the left side of her brain. The good thing was they caught it early and surgery would be a success.
"She's doing much better, although she still has mild headaches. Oh, the surgery is in two weeks."
"That's good, I'll make sure to be there. It's at eight, right?"
"Yes, she'll be happy if you can make it. To her, you're like a daughter. Sometimes I think she likes you more than me."
"Oh my, is that jealousy I sense? I really am grateful to her. I do look up to her as a mom. I'll stop by to see her on Tuesday since I only have two appointments."
"M'kay, will let her know. Make sure to bring her favorite."
"Will do." Zunnie smiled thinking about her famous white chocolate chip cookies that were to die for.
They chatted for twenty minutes, then said goodbye. Hearing her friends voice comforted her. It was always nice catching up with her girl San.
Sanua and Zunnie had been best friends for a long time now. They had been each other's ride or die since elementary school. Both being intelligent girls, got into the same high school but went their separate ways in college.
Zunnie pursued Psychology whilst Sanua studied Art and Design. At age twenty-seven, she had inherited her mom and dad's company, Luo Fashions and was doing a remarkable job. San was constantly in the limelight. She had this love-hate relationship with her fame. She enjoyed staying at Zunnie's condo when work became stressful or when the press bombarded her.
Zunnie on the other hand, has an older brother and refused to be part of the entertainment industry. Instead, she chose to lead a quiet life away from her family's fame and fortune. It seemed like no-one really knew she was the young madam of the Bai Entertainment Corp unless she attended their events.
After hanging up, Zunnie took a warm shower, watched a movie, then went to bed. As she laid in bed, her mind drifted to the patients she met with. She loved being a Psychologist even if she occasionally had some difficult patients. To her, there was something magical about being able to confidently improve someone's perspective about themselves. Watching them come to her office feeling down and seeing them go home happy after treatment, made Zunnie feel proud and accomplished.
One of the patients had been three years older than Nyo. She was having a tough time adjusting to her new school and was being bullied daily. Thinking about her Zunnie couldn't help but worry about her cute and innocent little Nyo.
'Hope he's doing well in school. Kids can be so cruel.' She thought as she closed her and drifted off to sleep.
That night she dreamed that her neighbor was a puppy who could talk, and they became best buddies.
