You chew on your lip for a second, About to regret saying that, But you shrug it off.
Putting said food aside, You finished the upgrade on Roxannes face, Fully content with the results.

Plugging her into the wall, for her to charge.
You then decided to, try a small bite of what Sun made for you.
It looked good, smelled good, But honestly, you didn't exactly believe you had the ingredients for this.
However, You were pretty impressed, whatever he did to make these, You've never seen better looking waffles.

And it tasted, Just as good. Cooked completely, yet soft amd airy, had the perfect amount of sugar, And literally tasted like something found at a baking show.
Sure. He's a robot. So, there's probably a cooking manual in there somewhere. But still, Holy shit. Thats delicious.

You were a little mad at him prior, but that definitely changed.
Took you around 5 minutes to finish eating.
Your expression, Completely dropped, When you realized you got a little syrup on your shirt.
Letting out a quick groan of annoyance, You frowned, Making your way to your room. Putting away your dishes while do so.

While you were looking for a different shirt to change into, You found the 'cutest' outfit.
Dressy, Causal, and a little bit of cottagecore, somehow also gave off streetwear vibes.
'There's still lots of day left, Right? I mean, No harm.'

Changing out of your clothes, You got into said outfit.
And I must say, It looked extremely good on you.

Satisfied after looking into the mirror for. . . Around 10 Seconds, You go downstairs to chill.

You saw Sun sitting in the living room, Looking rather upset.
You didnt know how you wanted to go about talking to the poor 'thing.'
"Uhm, Sun? . . . Okay. Nevermind."
You mumbled the last part, as the doorbell ringing cut you off.

Taking in a deep breath, you make your way to the door. Basically dragging your weight. You had no idea who was at the door, Nor why someone would be there.
You stood, hovering your hand over the handle, Mentally preparing yourself, and re-collecting thoughts.

You pulled on the handle. And you were faced with a handsome stranger.
Sure, You did find him attractive, but not in that way.
He looked to be the kind of guy were many people 'liked-liked' but a good amount of people also didn't find him 'their type. '
Take a guess at which category you were in.

He wasn't exactly your type.

You watched his expression change. Those dark green eyes, soften with relief. The stranger gave you an uncomfortable laugh. "I thought you weren't home at first!"
"Uh, Yeah. Did you need anything?"
"Well . . . I understand my cousin has been, Bothering you."

You furrowed your eyebrows. "Robbie?"
'They dont seem anything alike.'
You thought.
"Yeah, Robbie. I'd like to apologize. . . On his account. He's been talking about you for a while, I've been able to lay him off of you for now!"
'I feel like he's looking for some form of praise. '
"Oh. Okay, Thank you-Wait. Whats your name?"

He gave a small smile.
"Call me David."
Pursing your lips, You respond with, "You dont look like a David."
He laughed. Good to know he found your Not-Joke funny.
"Yeah... I get that sometimes."
"Okay, Well, Thanks."

"Say... Could I treat you to lunch?"
You frowned.
"Thats what Robbie asked me too."
"Haha! Well, Im giving you a choice! Plus... I know you're unemployed currently, I do have an offer I would like to talk to you about!"
Hesitating, You agree. After all, you knew you needed money.
"Wait like, Right now?" You questioned.
"Yeah! Why not, Your available right?"
"I guess."

___

He had a fancy car, Made you nervous. But according to him, you two weren't going anywhere fancy.
The whole car ride you felt... on edge. But he didnt exactly give off, 'Kidnapper' vibes, so you tried not to worry.

He parked at a small restaurant. Reminded you of a Panera Bread. But it was a different company.

And because of context clues, You assumed he meant for this to be a date.
'Won't get too far though, but I guess I could here him out.'

Eventually, You both sat down at a table, Deciding to cut to the chase, You ask, "So. . . What 'offer' did you want to talk to me about?"

A grin spread on his face.
"Ah! Im so glad you asked!"
