"P-please t-take me in ma'am", the stranger boy with pretty almond watery eyes pleaded in small voice.
and Rachel looked at him as if she was going to pierce into his soul.

Days had passed Coco easily adjusted to Rachel's lifestyle. He'd wake up early to make her breakfast and stay up late for dinner if she got late from work. Rachel indeed had been busy lately.
Coco's POV
I was sitting in her room. I miss spending time with her like I used to in her villa. Those days were beautiful. She has remained busy ever since we came here. What if I made her lunch? I should visit her!
I went down and started preparing the lunch. I prepared some chicken caesar wraps and strawberry banana smoothies for her. Yes, I carefully packed it all but I'm so nervous. I dressed up in an oversized hoodie and loose jogger pants and made my way to her office.

I took the metro and walked the remaining distance to her office. It was nearly lunchtime. I made my way inside the huge building with my bag. I approached the receptionist and asked her trying my best not to shake, 'Uhm hello I want to know the way to Ms Rachel's office'
'And who are you?' she asked me, in a not so polite tone.
'I a-am her friend. You can ask if you want to confirm. I've bought her lunch,' I said.
'Wait,' she rolled her eyes at me.
I chose to ignore her impolite stares and stood at a distance. She called me after a minute and showed me the way.
I didn't knock on her door and went inside straight away. There was some other man dressed in a long beige coat, inside of her office. He was holding her hand and seemed flirty.
'Oh Coco. You're here?' she asked me coming towards me.
I nodded at her removing my mask.
'Ooh young man, you should abide by the worker's dress code in the office. look at your shabby ponytail. Tsk. And take the empty glasses away when you leave you ungrateful lad,' he said in a demanding tone.
'He's not a damn-,' Rachel spoke up.
'I'm not a worker here mr.. whosoever you are. And you have no right to talk to anybody indifferent than you like that,' I let out straight without hesitation.
'I hope you're clear with that Mr. Harry. We shall continue our meeting tomorrow,' Rachel said to him.
He gave me a last bitter glance and left.
It felt as if I spoilt his time.
'Why are you here all of a sudden?' Rachel asked me.
'Um, y-you have been very busy lately. You don't eat breakfast. You come late. I t-thought I should make you lunch from now onwards,' I said looking down and showing her the lunch.
'Hmm. Thank you Coco,' she said taking the bag.
Hmph she doesn't call me baby anymore. Maybe I am not that special. What was all that? The kisses? The huggies?
