"(Y/N), wake up."

A soft gentle voice soothed your ears like a familiar harmony. The voice was still low registered, droopy even, but still sounding easy at the same time.

"Tooru.. good morning," you murmured after you released a yawn. He gave you a gentle grin while his fingers scribbled over your bed hair.

"Hurry up and shower, I made breakfast already," Tooru said with a loving smile. You drew a lazy grin and yanked yourself out of the comfort of his bed.

Today will be an important day for both you and Oikawa. Ms. Aiko has scheduled a meeting for you with The Carats. It's not hard to notice how excited and nervous you are for this to happen.

"They'll be here soon, The Carats are known for always being professional and on-time," Ms. Aiko said. Her voice snapped you back to reality.

"Got it. Thank you."

You and Oikawa walked side-to-side as you entered a vacant meeting room. You both sat next to each other, facing an empty chair that stood across a table.

"Are you okay?" Oikawa suddenly asked you.

"Who? Me? Oh yeah, definitely."

"You look nervous."

"Well, maybe I am a little. I still can't believe she baited The Carats," you sighed in awe. Your thoughts that spewed with anxiousness simmered down.

You both hear the sound of office heels clacking in the distance as it approaches near. The doors opened and you both stood up to bow. A blank stare was all you could give after you faced up.

"Kika?"

The blonde stopped her steps and submerged herself in disbelief. You and Oikawa did too. Her hair was longer and she looks even prettier now. The two-piece blazer set she wore hugged her figure seamlessly, complimenting her whole appearance together.

"(Y/N)? Tooru!" she giggled after seeing the male brunette.

"I didn't know you worked for The Carats," you said, voice still surprised.

"Well of course how would you know! We've lost contact ever since college.. not me and Tooru though."

Oikawa looked at you, sweat forming on his forehead. An 'I can explain' look was desperately all over his face.

"Tell you what, this deal will be so much easier if it's with you guys! I can prep everything up for ya."

"Gee, thanks Kika," you murmured with a fake smile on your face. She's so annoying.

"Th-thank you," Oikawa murmured without expression, earning a smile from Kika. "Glad I can help you, Tooru—"

"Both. Glad you can help us both?" you interrupted, correcting her. She nodded her head awkwardly to agree.

"Aside from work, how's life you guys?"

Small talk. She's really making small talk. It took every inch of you to not scoff or cringe in annoyance. Kika is definitely doing this on purpose.
