The next day,I arrive pretty early and I start sorting out some paperwork Mr Aiden left for me this morning.

Yes,he had to rush to court

Again.

He's a very popular lawyer,and a lot of cases are handed over to him.

"I'm just gonna draft this memo,so Mr Aiden has an idea of what section 124 says about this one" Kevin says staring at his computer.

"Bright idea" I smile at him.

My phone buzzes,and it's from Justin.

Justin:
Hey, birthday girl🎉

Me:
You know it's not until Saturday

Justin:
I know... How's work?

Me:
Going great so far.

Justin:
Mrs Lambert called yet?

Me:
Yes,I explained to her that I moved. She said she'll have appreciated me telling her this in person

Justin:
Told you so

Me:
Come on,I was in a hurry.

Justin:
Yeah. How's college going?

Me:
I'm watching the online lectures and reading the digital hand-outs. Graduation is next week anyway.

Justin:
You gonna take a day off?

Me:
Probably

Justin:
👍🏼

Me:
Gotta go. Ttyl❤️❤️❤️

"That's a lot of giggling" Kevin says and I chuckle.

"My-"

"Boyfriend," he says with a smile. "The way you were looking at your phone sold you out"

I laugh with a nod.

I'm kinda excited to see Justin. It's been just a few days,but I miss him.

I miss everything about him.

"Have you met any new people yet?" I ask as I continue to sort out stuff.

"Yeah,I met Lauren. She's pretty nice," he says. "Oh,and Jace too"

"They're both interns?" I ask

"Yes,but under a different trainee" he says and I nod.

"Hey,you wanna grab lunch again today?" He asks.

"Of course" I chuckle.

"Where did you work before....here?" He asks curiously.

The way his eyebrows furrow makes me chuckle.

Kevin is a really cute person.

"I worked as a barista," I chuckle,then I remember me working at different places at a particular point. "I worked at different places" I end with a laugh.

He nods with interest

"You?"

"Oh," he looks around. "I was an online editor"

"Oh, that's great. And less stressful"

"No," he playfully stops me. "I had to stay up all night most of the time to edit for those lazy YouTubers" he replies and writes some things down.

I chuckle.
"But the pay waa okay, right?"

"It's pretty cool. At least,it helped with the necessities,and there was always enough left"
