Flynn wakes up early and gets ready for Office as soon as he can, he knows he has to fix things sooner or later, he can't be just sitting around blaming out on others.

"Flynn: (talking to the mirror) It's you Mr.Flintoff, you freaking blew up. But you can do better, atleast you have to be trying for what you wish for."

Flynn drives his continental, he also stops by a flower shop to buy flowers for Arielle, he has his mind set, he's obstinate, atleast he things he is.

He has reached his office, he is smilingly taking the stairs instead of the lift, holding flowers in one hand and the office bag in other, only thinking of making things better. 

He is finally tapping his fingers on the table in anxiety on the office table.

"Smith: My lord, you called? 

Flynn: Uhm huh, ya (stammers) 

Smith: you should've took some more days off sir, you look aweful.

Flynn: uh Is it? (grabs his phone to check his face)

Smith: no, I mean you look different(scrunches his face)

Flynn: As in?

Smith: The Vibe, my lord, you've had an accident, but looks like you've hit the jar of joy somewhat.

Flynn: (tries to hide his smile and clasps his hands with his elbows pushing the table hard with tightened jaw to display a normal look) what rubbish!

Smith: (makes a weird expression to that) 

Flynn: Anyways, Could you call Miss Arielle please.

Smith: (raises his eyebrows) Sure sir, but what for? (says lowly)

Flynn: (hesistates) uh, um, you know, that, present-presentation, yeah, presentation.

Smith: OHHHHHHHHH, that presentation, totally forgot (pauses), which is for Arthur?

Flynn: huh? Arthur? call her I have to make changes to the presentation, anyway.

Smith: (trying to control his laughter) You my lord? (giggles) I'm sorry .

Flynn: (narrows his eyes) What's so funny Mr. Smith?

Smith: no-nothing My lord, I'll do that (laughs).

Mr. Smith leaves

Flynn: Gosh, what is so funny? (nods his head in annoyance)

Knock on the door

Flynn: Yes?

Arielle: (from the door) Sir, you asked for- ?

Flynn: oh (smiles), yeah, come inside.

Arielle enters the room, there enters another person with her

Flynn: Monet?

Monet: Morning sir. (says in the most pleasing tone)

Flynn: Mor-Morning.

Arielle: Morning sir.

Flynn: hm.

Awkward silence maintained for absolute 3 Minutes

Flynn: uh, so Monet, any special reason for showing up?

Monet: WOW, you called us here sir.

Flynn: (confused) I did?

Arielle: (closes her eyes)

Monet: Well, Mr.Smith said so. Can't really trust his words, can we?

Flynn: (rubs his temple in confusion) okay, wait, I'll check for that.

Monet's phone rings and she stares Arielle in shock

Arielle: that might be important.

Monet: agh (sighs) I'll be back Mr. Flintoff. (leaves)

Flynn: (gestures towards the chair) Have a seat Arielle.

Arielle: Um no, I'm fine.

Flynn: (nods as he understands her) ok.

Arielle: you had work?

Flynn: ya, that, yes yes. (nods) (pauses) Arielle! (sighs)

Arielle: yeah? (looks him in the eye)

Flynn: I don't even have the right to apologize, (looks in her eyes with absolute genuinity) but I don't think I'll ever be at peace for ruining everything, I am Sorry Arielle. (shuts his eyes in sorrow)

Arielle: Mr.Flintoff-

Flynn: I know it's something that can never be corrected and I'm left to repent over my silly mistakes.

Arielle: (nods) hm. (not my eyes welling up now, please god)

Flynn: I don't deserve amiable people, I don't deserve happiess-

Arielle: so, I'm here for your undeserving moments, ofc it's your office. I'm done, I need some air. (her eyes almost filled with tears)

Flynn: Arielle! If it's my last time, I need to give my best atleast, let me try please. Will you trust me for one more time?

Arielle: What for?

Flynn: I won't say everything (faces the ceiling and chuckles in pain), but my words won't be decieving this time. 

Arielle: I can't take this-

Flynn: Come with me.

Arielle: ah.

Flynn and Arielle enter the lift, and exit at the terrace

Arielle: WOW (I don't wanna make things any less serious but the beauty of the city is mesmerizing and I can never imagine to not acknowledge it)

Flynn: (smiles) It's beautiful isn't it? Not that I have ever seen it.

Arielle: (sharply looks at her but doesn't say a word) O.

Flynn: (looks at her with absolute innocence)

Arielle: (both speak at once) You haven't been here?

Flynn: (both speak at once) I'm sorry.

Arielle: uh

Flynn: never actually. (both smile for a brief second)

Arielle: Your chance, you speak up.

Flynn: (turns and points at the bench) a seat?

Arielle: (blinks in agreement) ok."

Both walk to the bench. Flynn gestures Arielle to sit, she gets seated, only to get amazed to watch Flynn sit cross legged on the Floor. She stands to ask him to sit beside her.

"Arielle: Mr.Flintoff! what are you doing, sit here.

Flynn: do me a favor, don't mind me today, please sit down.

Arielle: but Mr.Flintoff-

Flynn: I thought you trusted me for today.

Arielle: (nods in annoyance while she sits ) I don't believe you!"
