"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."
[AFTER 5 YEARS.....]
"I am leaving for Italy."
Mikey said with complete lack of emotion, I stood there like a joke, he listened and felt boring. My heart hurt, tears streamed down my cheeks, and my lips sealed shut.It was a dream.
5 years have passed since I left Japan and Mikey left me....
It is a lonely feeling when someone you care about becomes a stranger

Here I'm up at 8 in the morning getting a text from Becky, my best friend and a professional journalist with a handsome salary unlike mine. However, I love my work, I mean who wouldn't???? When YOU LITERALLY ARE LIVING WITH WINE, not actually living with wine, but I am always around wine since I am working as HR at "Screaming Eagle".
Life is quite idyllic now a days, and guess what? Besides those merry reminders of him, I am doing better.
*Notification*
"BE READY AT 9"
I received a text from Becky instructing me to get ready by 9 a.m. since we work together as we both have buildings in the same lane of Manhattan and I better get ready or she will kill me.
^-^
I got fresh , took a bath and dressed for work as usual and had cereal for breakfast because guess what I ain't cooking right now!
I locked my apartment and rushed towards the parking lot and saw Becky already waiting for me in her car.
"Morning beauty" she said before starting the car
Putting on my seat belt, I replied quickly, "Good morning, Beck"
She said, "let's have dinner together since I just found out that one of my friends is in love with me, so in a way, I am pretending to be friends with someone who has a crush on me...HAHAHA" she said.
"Beck I hope you know that its terrible." I responded.
"But it is really fun, I swear!" she replied enthusiastically.
"Ahh, Alright alright, drive carefully I don't want to die right now" I replied, a bit worried.
^-^
"Good morning, Y/N! The boss is waiting for you in the meeting room." Janice, my colleague said.
"For me?" I asked with a doubt in my heart since he barely speaks, but let's ignore that fact since he's a hot Japanese-American man with tattoos on his neck. Is he my crush? NO, but do I want him to fuck me? YES! But THIS IS WORK Y/N!!! TF YOU BE THINKING?!?!
I entered the meeting room looking at that grumpy 6'4 male with literally 1000 red flags,
"You asked for me sir?" I asked formally, suppressing my urge to have sex with him.
"Yes, Y/n." He replied and continued, "How are you? work's fine?" He paused for my reply.
"oh-ah I am fine sir, how about you? A-And the work is fine, I told Manager Smith to finalize the third sample of red win-"
"Not in that way. Are you doing well here with the people? Do you find this place comfortable?" he asked as he interrupted me AND WHAT IN THE FUCKING WORLD IS GOING ON?!?!
I mean why the fuck is he being so polite? Wait is he in love with me? Am I in a wattpad story? Now we will have sex? We will get date? WHAT THE FUCKKKKKKKKK
"never mind my worries, but I have a work for you in Italy, we have to find a better wine for our Christmas collection so get on it." he said and now things were making sense, this is not some wattpad story of my boss falling in love with me but he was being an polite asshole since he wanted me to go to Italy. WOW DUMB ME.
TF HE SAID?!
"Go to Italy...."
