She was so familiar to him, as though she was a dream he had soon forgot and to her he was nothing at all but the person who made her glow and she wonders if she'll finally be able to say it- Unaware that it was fate tying them both together now; De...

ʕ•ﻌ•ʔMAI ʕ•ﻌ•ʔ
A month had passed and soon it was a weekend on mid January. Mai wore her casual orange turtle neck sweater with a short blue skirt and black shoes, her eyes focused yet dazed in thought as a pile of papers, filled and signed laid on the desk in front of her.
Mai hummed in thought as another minute passed by and still she was staring at the papers. 'Maybe... I can convince Naru?'
Mai and Akemi have their own desk at the office, on their first week on the job it was only Akemi with a desk as it is only meant for one person but after a while, Akemi decided to at least change the desk into a longer one that reminded Mai of a bar with two bartenders on the other side.
Their desk is the first one to be seen once the doors of the SPR opened and would continue on to view the receiving area, where modern sofas circle around each other with a coffee table in the center of it, a long sofa sat in the middle of the room with another across it and two single sofas on their sides. Behind it leads to a door not far towards the Office bathroom, close to Mai and Akemi's desk.
Seeing as their desk is not far from the main door and somewhere behind them is the entrance for the bathroom, their desk faces Naru's door on the opposite side of the room with Lin's office on the side wall next to Naru's, Lin's office faced the vacant doorway towards a small room for the kitchen which is right across the receiving area.
KA—CHAK!
Mai got out of her stupor at the sound of Naru's office door opening. She almost sweat dropped at the sight of the wall clock, 'He has been in there for hours without even asking for a cup of tea once? Jeez— just how long have I been reading these papers?!'
"Are you taking a break, Naru?" Naru didn't respond to Mai's question to an obvious answer and sat on a single sofa with his own papers. Seeing as her question is being ignored, Mai felt her brow twitched. 'You narcissist! At least let out a hm or something!'
Mai just dismissed her thoughts, it wouldn't be good to think of something negative when she clearly has something to say. "Would you like a cup of tea?"
Naru was silent, his eyes slowly gazing around the empty receiving area, glancing towards the kitchen bar and even on Mai and Akemi's desk. "Sure."
Mai didn't bother to look into his actions and went to the kitchen for his tea, frowning at the lack of cakes and cookies on the fridge or cupboard that Akemi would usually filled in with food and snacks; it was filled to the brim once, but none lasted for 3 weeks.
The graceful female had been gone from the office for almost a month now— it almost scared Mai to death when Akemi hasn't been present for almost two weeks and the high school girl feared that Akemi was fired, marching over towards Naru's office she found out that Akemi was off to a family traditional vacation, a month's worth of bonding. Mai let out a big breath after that and texted Akemi once a while and the model would send out pictures of her and her family as well as the souvenirs she would be giving to Mai, turns out Akemi was in Paris.
