It is true that when you are enjoying yourself time passes by really quickly
but here is the thing. I don't want to finish this pretend relationship with Jisoo.

I always anticipate her visit to my apartment everyday.

I know that it is wrong and I am a newbie with relationships and socializing in general but you can't help but cling to Jisoo.

The day has come that I need to come back to work tomorrow. Reality will start tomorrow. I am happy that I will see my friends again but At the same time I am sad that I will not see Jisoo again.

Are you not sad if you did not see your crush? It is normal right? To be sad?

I tried to sleep but I couldn't. I don't know why I am excited but at the same time worried.

As expected morning came and I have 3 hours of sleep max.

I want to drink 1L of coffee if I can but I know I can't. I went to my bathroom and got ready for work. I wear my favorite blue jeans which are my only jeans aside from my black pants and my Black pink T-shirt. There is no coffee in our cabinet so I just drank water. No time for breakfast.

I went out of the apartment and was surprised because the black SUV of Mr. Shades is parked right out of the street or maybe not. I can't assume that Jisoo has the only one who owns this type of car.

As I approach it Mr. Shades came out of it and open the passenger door instantly signaling me to enter the car.

"Please mam we will bring you to the office."

Who am I to decline a free ride? I smiled at him awkwardly and entered the car. As Mr. Shades started to drive I heard him say "queen is secured" Queen? Secured? The heck? I just ignore him. I really want a coffee. Craving, desiring? Is that even an appropriate word to use?

I arrive at the office at 8:30am. I waved at the 4 guards in front of each ID kiosk and as usual they nod at the same time. How creepy is that?

Like other employees I am waiting at one of the 10 elevator banks to go to my floor when suddenly I feel the temperature became colder and the chatter became silent. I looked at the air vents at the ceiling to see if there is something wrong with it. I look at the other employees on my side and I saw them looking at the floor. What is wrong with the floor? I look at the floor also to see if there is anything interesting happening to it but it is the same shiny black tiles that you can see your murky reflection.

"Ms. Ruby jane" I heard someone calling my name and I turn around to see who it is. I was shocked when I saw Jisoo standing behind me and she is guarded by 2 men in black.

I look around me but the people are not looking at us but I know they are listening. Who doesn't of course they will want to know why the CEO singled me out of all the people here.

"Mam" is said while smiling at her brightly. I am sure even my wisdom teeth are showing.

Jisoo just looked at me. Amusement is filling her eyes and incline her head to signal me to follow her. I started to walk in the direction she indicated and she walk beside me. We reach her private elevator and she look at me again eye to eye.

"You go first"

"Huh? Me?"

Lifting her brow is the only response I get. I entered the elevator and Jisoo followed. She pressed 15 and the olympus floor.

I can feel the heat of her body. Elevator music started. Do you know how awkward this situation is? Do they not have other song? Deciding if I will write a suggestion to change the elevator song when suddenly Jisoo talk.

"How are you?"

Startled by her question I fidgeted. What is the cool way to answer this question without me looking like an idiot.

" I slept alright maybe 4 hours?" Liar.
"Jennie 4 hours of sleep is not enough" Yeah dumb answer Jennie. Keep it up.
Jisoo is now scolding me. Her eyes are really intense. God those eyes.
