The Architect (HAITUS)

I

Mei's pov

-

What a day. The only thing they let me do in the past weeks is just draw ideas and sometimes they ask for extra details and some help here and there. It's like they're testing me. 

I lean back into my chair and sigh. 

I'll be getting my own office tomorrow since I will begin the actual work. 

As minutes pass by, I grab my phone and unlock it. The first thing I see on my Instagram is a picture of my parents. It made me smile seeing those smiles on their faces, they are in Canada at the moment partying on their own.

Then someone sent me a text, and before I could open it, I heard her voice making me look up. It was my boss. Her long frame walked towards me before she sat on the chair next to me.
She's attractive for sure, and any girl might fall for her, but not me though... she's too masculine "Hey Mei, how is your day going so far?" She asked. 

I smiled at her and put my phone down on the table, "It's going good actually, I just finished this sketch" I said pointing to the paper in front of me. She nodded and grabbed it to take a closer look at it. 

"I came here to ask if you don't mind going to a meeting tomorrow morning. The company next to us doesn't have an architecture at the moment and asked us if we wouldn't mind collaborating with them... and right now you are the perfect person for the both of us. I'll send you the time and in which room it will be held, just think about it" she smiled while putting the sketch back on my table. "Himeko, me and some other co-workers will be there too so don't worry" 

I smiled back, "I'll think about it" 

She nodded and stood up, "Make sure to show up" she pointed out jokingly before leaving while laughing. 

I sighed and leaned back into my chair only for my friend in front of me to raise a brow at me. I wouldn't call this place I'm working at an office since it's a long table with laptops on them and not a lot of workers work here. Most of them have their own office.

"What's the sigh about?" Himeko asked.

"I'm kinda nervous I guess..."

She grabbed her phone, scrolling through something before having a victorious smile, and turned around the table to sit next to me, "Okay, so you told me you don't have a label right? and that woman kind of attracts you. Tomorrow, we have the meeting, and there will be three of that company coming—the owner of the company, and two interior designers. Grab your phone, and look at what I'll send to you" With that, she smirked before sending something to me. 

I looked confused at her. 

Raising a brow, I grabbed my phone and went to our text only to see a picture of a goddess. Her blond hair was in a high ponytail, her slim legs crossed over the other, and god those glasses were a weakness. I didn't even know who this person is but I did know just from looking at her, my heart rate increased. 

(I'm talking about this kind of glasses ;)

"Are we blushing here?~" Himeko teased from the other side of the table. I jumped, she scared the shit of me. Didn't she go? 

"Of course I'm not, she isn't even that gorgeous" I huffed trying to hide my blush. 

"Hmhm" She hummed. I rolled my eyes at her before opening the computer. "Did you know, that she will come to the meeting tomorrow? Aaand she's gay, single, a party popper, has an attractive voice, goes to the gym, has a sexy body, and also-" She stopped when I felt my face go really really warm. "Oh my god, does she affect you that much without even meeting her or seeing her in real life yet?" She smirked before giving me her glass of water. 

"Well, not my problem you said those things" I mumbled under my breath. 

"What was that-" before she could continue, I grabbed my bag and stood up.

"It's time to leave, see you tomorrow Himeko" And with that, I left the grinning girl. As I waited in the elevator, my heartbeat wouldn't stop beating that fast, "Ugh, get it together, you don't even know her" I slapped both my cheeks before the door opened, so I left and went towards my car. 

Sighing, I finally started the car and headed toward the grocery store to buy dinner. 

After a couple of minutes, I arrived there. I grabbed a basket and went to the international side of the store to grab pasta and stuff to kook with it. As I walked to the counter and waited till the cashier scanned all my stuff, I heard two playful voices coming next to me. Two close friends I guess. 

"Your total will be 15 dollars, would you like to pay with the card or cash?" The cashier asked.

I opened my bag to grab my card "Uh, with the card but give me a second" Shit, I can't find it. Oh my god, don't tell me I forgot it at home. "Fuck" I mumbled before hearing someone talk to the cashier and look at me.

"Here, let me pay" She put her card on the pin before I could respond. 

"There was no need for it-" When I finally looked at her face, my heartbeat increased. Oh my god, she's a fucking goddess. "Thanks" I smiled before fast putting all the stuff inside the bag, and before I could leave, I felt a hand slide into mine making me look down at it and then up at her.

"You're welcome" She smiled. I took my hand and headed toward my car. Looking down at my hand, she put a piece of paper in it making me smile to myself. 

I leaned back into my seat, opened the paper piece only to see a phone number, and closed my eyes tightly while the smile wouldn't leave my face. 

Who the fuck is she?
