The apartment diagonal from hers had been empty for a few months now. Although, there were times Zunnie was overly curious as to who would move in, she had stopped peeking to see if there were any new neighbors. Anyway, who wasn't curious when it came to their neighbors. Don't they say, "precaution is better than cure."

Lake-view Condos has been her home for three years and she loved it. From the serenity to the night view, one could say it was heaven. The lake and garden had a calmness to it and she often went for morning jogs or walked around the small park near. There was a gym on the second floor. Near the complex was a small shopping mall with a few designer stores and a grocery market. It looked like a small village on the city outskirts. Even though it was costly to rent, the safety and comfort of the residents were priority.

Zunnie drove into her parking space and headed to the stairs, assuming the elevator was in use.

"Oh, I need to call Sanua! She should have landed by now." She said as she grabbed her phone from her designer bag and dialed a number.

The phone rang twice before she picked up.

"Well, if ain't Zunnie Boo!"

"Hey darling, how was your flight?"

"Too long. Are you home yet?"

"I just got in. We still on for dinner tomorrow? Will give you time to sleep in since it's Saturday." She said smiling.

"Yes girl, you definitely know me. I've missed you though. So, I look forward to partying till we can't no more tomorrow night."

Haha this girl sure loves to party. Zunnie smiled as she listened to the latest gossip about Sanua famous friends.

"Hey San, how's your mom. Is she getting better?" Zunnie inquired.

Mrs. Bai was in her late fifties and was suffering from constant headaches. She recently had a doctor's visit, and they told her she had a tumor in the left side of her brain. The good thing was they caught it early and surgery would be a success.

"She is doing much better, although she still has headaches. The surgery is in two weeks."

"That's good, I'll make sure to be there. It's at 8am right?"

"Yes, she'll be happy that you can make it. To her you're like a daughter. Sometimes I think she likes you more than me." San said, pouting on the other side of the phone.

"Oh my, is that jealousy I smell? I really am grateful to her. I do look up to her like 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."

After chatting for twenty minutes, they said good bye. It was always nice catching up with her girl San.

Sanua was Zunnie's best friend and had been her 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 inherited her mom and dad's company, Luo Fashions and is doing a damn good job. She always made Zunnie proud.


San is constantly in the limelight, which she has a love hate relationship with. She enjoys staying at Zunnie's condo when she is too stressed from being bombarded by the press. Zunnie on the other hand, has an older brother and does not want to be part of the entertainment industry. She chose to lead a quiet life away from her family's fame and fortune. It's like no-one really knew she was the young madam of the Bai Entertainment Corp.

After hanging up, Zunnie took a shower, watched a movie then headed to bed.

Laying in bed, her mind drifted to the patients she saw today. She loved being a Psychologist even if she occasionally has a few difficult patients. To her there was something magical about being able to help someone feel better about themselves. Watching them come to her office feeling down and seeing them go home happily 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 worrying about her cute and innocent little cousin 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 dreamt that her neighbor was a puppy which could talk, and they became best buddies.
