Hi readers! Back with the second chapter. I guess you are all good. Hope you will have a great reading.

Author's pov :-

Leo gets used to going to the same pub, where they had the reunion, where he got an admirer.

One day, Leo's proposal was not approved and he was discouraged. He goes to the pub to drink and forget. He was drinking all alone and right then one man approaches him( his admirer )and introduces himself:
Hi! My name is Kao, I guess we both are alone. Do you mind me joining you?
Leo sees it as no harm and accepts the offer. As they drink together, Leo gets drunk and blabbers out all his worries and Kao patiently listens to Leo and supports him and cools Leo down with some soothing words. Kao also helps him to get a cab to home. Leo remembers everything in the morning and feels happy to make a new friend.

Fantasy world company :-

A new girl joins Alice's team. The team leader introduces her saying that her name is Cea and she is a new member of their designing team.

Cea: hi Everyone, my name is Cea and I hope we get together well.
Team leader: She will first work under Alice's assistance. Alice take care for her till she gets a hang of her work and the office.

Alice who was deep in thoughts, thinking :
Cea! What a cute name. The way she talks, I want to protect her like a princess. She is so lively, I hope she won't loose that smile ever....Do I even deserve to protect her, when I couldn't do it properly before.
I don't deserve it................

Team leader: Alice! Alice!! Alice!!!
Alice: yes!!
Team leader: did you hear what I said? I told you to take care of Cea till she gets used to the work and the office. Do you have any questions?

Cea in her mind:- Alice! She looks so pretty. The look on her face, it's like she cares for me. The protective look in her eyes is making me want to act all weak, so she can protect me. But why did I get a disappointed look in the end?

Alice: Cea right?
Team leader: I'll leave her in your care, so take care of her.
Alice: yes.
Cea: hi! Wow, I can't believe I got a very pretty senior to look after me.
Alice: pretty? Get ready to get nagged.
Cea: I will look forward, mommy.

As cea is under Alice's assistance, they are always around each other. Alice always protects Cea, she takes care of her gently and teach her everything with patience. Cea starts to feel more loved and precious around Alice. Cea falls for Alice's care. She starts to flirt with Alice. Even though Alice responds to her flirting, she never takes it further than that.

One day, Alice had to work late to complete a design for a new project and Cea stayed with her to help her. It's almost midnight and Cea fell asleep after helping Alice a little.
Alice: ahhh!, done! Cea, let's go home.
As soon as she looks at Cea, Cea is sleeping so peacefully, looking so cute like a small baby. Cea wakes up after hearing Alice. She slowly rubs her sleepy eyes and opens one eye to look at Alice.
Alice: *in her mind* how can I not fall for you when you are this cute and gentle?  I shouldn't do this. I don't deserve you. I hope I don't fall for you more.
Cea: Alice!!
Alice: yes!
Cea: are you done?
Alice: yeah, let's go home.

It's been 2 weeks Cea came into Alice life. Alice takes Cea to meet Pang, they all become one group.

The fun club:-

Leo goes to the pub to thank Kao and drinks with him. They become more close and more open to each other. Leo ends up going to the pub daily.

This time Leo's subordinates make a mistake and Leo takes the blame for them and gets bullied by his department director, because they never really liked each other. Leo gets wasted in the pub without Kao and when Kao arrives, Leo is already drunk to point where he could sleep anywhere. Kao takes Leo to his house because Leo was not in a condition to think or answer anything clearly. When Kao tries to get his address, Leo speaks all nonsense. When they reach home Leo pukes all over Kao and himself. Kao change himself into new clothes and takes Leo's clothes off and washes his body. Then he cleans his room and washes Leo's clothes. He gets tired and forgets to change Leo into new clothes and lets him sleep with his underwear and Kao sleeps in the next room.

In the morning :-

Leo gets up late in the morning and misunderstands Kao after seeing himself naked. Kao is in the kitchen making breakfast for both of them, right then leo comes to the kitchen and yells at Kao for taking advantage of him while he was drunk.Kao gets annoyed and shoves a bread piece into Leo's mouth and says:
You puked everywhere last night and it took me all night to wash you and your clothes. I was tired and fell asleep in the next room. I'm not the type to take advantage of drunk people, I do it confidently when they are fully aware.

Leo lowers his face with embarrassment, regret and slowly says sorry with a cute voice. Just by listening to Leo's voice, Kao melts down and gives him a sweet smile. They have the breakfast together and Kao drops Leo at his apartment.

After getting home, Leo tries to remember what happened last night. All he could remember was Kao's face while he was laying him down on bed.

Author: both Alice and Leo are falling in love. Are they brave enough to admit it and make a changes in their lives?
