Me After You

Heart

It was already 3 days since the newly hired agents started working with us. Today will be my first day of duty seeing them.

It's almost 2 in the morning when they arrived. Our coach advised the boys to sit next to me and the girls next to our support teams.

I don't know what happened but I felt shy, my heart started beating fast. I'm feeling nervous for no reason.

"Shoot, Athena, his voice is so manly, you know what, that’s the type of guy I wanted to have" I heard one of the newly hired agents said.

I pretended like I did not hear it.

"Shut up, Lee, your voice is so loud," Athena said

"Is that so? Well, it's fine for him to be able to know that I am interested in him" Lee said and chuckled.

"Hey, secure your heart, I've heard from Pat and Helen that you easily fall in love"

"Do you believe them?" Lee asked

"At first I don't, but seeing you flirting like that, I think it's real, HAHAHA" Athena laughed.

"Zip it," Lee said.

I can't help but smile, hearing these words makes my heart fluttered.

I took a deep breath before facing them. Even though he was wearing a mask, I can see how big his smile is, I can see it through his eyes. We are the same, ever time I smile my eyes are getting smaller.

"Guys come over here" Giner shouted, she is the one who is assisting them.

They all sat in front of Giner.

Giner introduced them to us, we clapped and welcomed them.

They went back to their chair.

"December 30 will be RJ's birthday right?" She announced

"Yes, and Helen's birthday will be on January 1," Pat said.

"So, where will we celebrate it?" Lee asked.

Before they could open their mouths, Lee already decided where to eat. "I want samgyupsal, let's celebrate it there"

"I think we don't need to discuss it, Lee already decided where to eat," Athena said.

I clapped, they all stared at my direction.

"You are not invited," Giner said.

"Yes he is, we can invite him" Lee answered.

I don't know what happened but I felt butterflies on my stomach.

Lee is shorter than me, he looks awesome with his clothes, he wears Korean eyeglasses and boots. I can easily say that he is a fan of Korean by just staring at him.

"Ayiiieee" They all teased him

"Wh--what? I'm just friendly, you guys are so--Ish" He said and tucked his short hair.

"Now you're acting cute, huh," Helen said and pinched his arm

" Ey, stop it" Lee answered, he even controlled his voice.

He sounded cute.

After that, they went back to their places, Rj, Athena, Ej and Lee sat next to me. I cannot focus, I don't know if it's because there are so many people at my back or because Lee is staring at me.

"Stop that, he might melt," Athena said.

"You know what, we are still not yet dating but I am already planning our future" Lee whispered, he whispered enough and thought that I won't be able to hear it.

"Shut up, you flirt, how about Rommel, I thought you liked him first"

"I did, but, I don't want him anymore, you know, I easily get attached to people and when I see them, I easily get bored" He explained

"You are an easy goer, you don't take anything seriously" Athena.

"No, stupid" Lee said, I even heard he slapped Athena's hand

"ouch"

I smiled.

"it's not about that, yes, I can say that I just met Ali today, but you know what made my heart beats only for him? It's because he looks like a Korean Oppa, his cute eyes and his smile, I think I'm falling in love with him" Lee chucked.

"Okay!" Athena answered.

I pretended like I was looking for Giner, I stood up and faced Lee. He was already looking on his notes. Athena is teasing him by poking Lee's elbow.

I smiled and returned to my seat.

"He's cute, isn't he" Lee whispered.

It was already an hour and I am not hearing anything, I decided to look at them and saw them sitting next to Rommel. I don't know but I felt irritated.

I saw Lee stared at me, our eyes met for a couple of seconds before I decided to break it.

"I thought he likes me, he should have stayed on my side" I whispered.

I lost my concentration on working and decided to take a break. I walked past near them and heard them laughing.

I saw how happy Lee was, there is water on his eyes, a sign of his having a good time.

"Tsss" I whispered

"Where are you going?" Lee asked

"I'll take my first break" I answered.

I faced them and they were all staring at me.

Rommel was also standing. "I'm going to the--comfort room" He answered while stuttering.

"Ow, Ali, we were not asking you, sorry," Athena said.

I felt a hot liquid flowing down from my forehead and I can feel a hot sensation on my face. I was about to turn my back on them when Lee called me.

"Enjoy your break," He said, he removed his mask and smiled. He looks cuter without the mask, his genuine smile.

I smiled back and walked out, I took a deep breath.

I immediately sat on the bench to take a deep breath

That's was epic, my goodness.

I was sitting on the bench outside our office when I saw Lee, Pat and Rj walking.

Lee faced me and smiled "Let's smoke" He offered.

I smiled and answered "My break is almost done, enjoy," I said

He smiled and continued walking.
What's happening to me? This is our first meet and I am already feeling this way

As I went back to the office, I immediately run next to Giner.

"What's with the rush?" She asked.

"Nothing, just want to ask, how was your training?"

"Well, they are very good, fast learners and they are witty as well, maybe tomorrow or the day after, I'll let you train them, let's see if we have the same feelings towards them" She answered.

"Why me?" I asked

"Nothing, you are the only one I saw who are excited knowing them" She answered and shrugged her shoulders.

"Okay, then" I answered and went back to my chair.

That's a good idea, I'll get to know them more, and I'll get to know Lee deeper.

This is the best day of my life. I've met an amazing person that I did not know will have a big impact on my life.

He was a stranger, a stranger that made a big impact on my life.
