Since he came back from the party, Baekhyun could not stop from looking at his watch. He was going back and forth in the living room waiting for the doctor to finish checking up the poor puppy.He had texted Jongdae and the latter had told him about his urgent flight to Paris the next day.(if you are confused as to why Jongdae didn’t tell Baekhyun about Chanyeol is because he hadn’t met him yet.)Chip was curled up in a ball on his puppy bed, making small whimpers probably from the pain in his stomach. Baekhyun was getting restless."Dr. Wook, is he going to be alright?" Baekhyun asked worriedly."Chip will be fine. It seems to me like Chip ate some bug outside and it was slightly poisonous. Your nanny told me he was playing outside for a while today. He must have caught it there." said Dr. Wook.Baekhyun glared at the nanny standing beside Chip's puppy bed. She seemed to have sensed it and never made an eye contact with him till the doctor left."Tracy, care to explain what Chip was doing outside for so long?" Baekhyun asked in a stern voice."I am sorry Mr. Byun, I tried to take him inside but he just won't listen. So, I let him stay there a bit more." Tracy, the nanny, replied."This is a not acceptable, Tracy. You know Chip is like a baby. He is fragile. This is your final chance, Tracy. You need to take care of him better." Baekhyun sighed. The nanny was the best he could find for his Chip. She was very good to Chip and he seemed to like her too. He crouched down beside the now asleep pup and smiled as he saw the pup sleeping peacefully.Chip’s existence in Baekhyun’s life was like a medicine for Baekhyun’s sorrows. Baekhyun found Chip in the local pet store near the university. The little corgi pup was excitingly chasing his own tail and kept barking when he couldn’t seem to catch it. He tumbled over many times from the platform in the front display window where he was kept.Chip’s habits reminded Baekhyun of a certain clumsy person. He immediately fell in love with the small pup and took him home. Chip was now a year and half old and an inseperable part of Baekhyun’s life.   Baekhyun was woken up by his phone’s alarm clock, blaring away in the silence of the morning. It was Monday. He had 7 missed calls from Jongdae. His phone was on silent mode last night, reason for not hearing the calls. ‘He tried calling him but couldn’t reach. ‘Oh, he must be on the flight right now.’ Baekhyun thought and made a mental note to call his best friend later.  Oh, great. Just great. Baekhyun thought. Monday was the day of the week where Baekhyun set up his meetings with the designers for future projects. In short,  the busiest day of his life. It was only about 6:00 am but he knew that it was only a matter of an hour or so and Kyungsoo would be there to tell him his schedule for the day.He silently got up from the bed, went to check on Chip and found the puppy to be silently asleep in his crib. It was the effect of the huge dosage of medicines that the pup was a bit hazed out.He then went to the bathroom and when he came out, it was already 6:45 am in the clock. 15 minutes more.The coffee machine was the next stop. It was the most vital thing for Baekhyun every morning. One cup of strong black coffee and Baekhyun would wake up completely, ready to face his day ahead. However, Baekhyun wasn’t a big fan of black coffee. He had a sweet tooth almost anytime and would be ready to devour a large chunk of a cake or a whole bar of chocolate in no time but that would be inappropriate as these things made him a different bit of hyper for some time and then instantly sleepy after.7:00 amHmm.. He must be here soon.Just as this thought crossed Baekhyun’s mind, a small click was heard and a clean, fresh looking Kyungsoo dressed up in his formal grey suit came into sight. He was carrying about 6-7 files in his one hand and a bag of some sort in his other.“Baekhyun, good morning. You had a good sleep, sir?” he was smiling.Baekhyun chuckled. “Soo, decide what to call me first. How come is it that you have been working for me for almost a year and you still haven’t decided what to call me? And to answer your question, Good morning to you too and yes, I had a good sleep.”Kyungsoo put down the files on the table in the living room and waited Baekhyun to come and sit across to discuss their day ahead.Baekhyun sat calmly and scanned the number of files when the bag caught his eyes again.“Umm, Soo? What’s in the bag?”Kyungsoo looked beside him and remembered. “Oh, Yes. This. Mr. Kim had it delivered to me to give it to you along with his offer file.Baekhyun sighed. He took the fancy looking bag and opened it. There were some imported chocolat
