  The air in the room thickened as Ben look at the woman stunned, his eyes clashed on hers.. her face covered in disbelief..

  Rachel:" You?.. what are you doing here?.. " he pointed towards himself with index finger and smile in disbelief..

  Ben:" Me?.. you are asking me?.. " he look around in his office and sigh in disbelief..

  Rachel:" yes you.. I have been trying hard to not to think of negativity but the way you kept appearing makes me wonder if you are really following me around?.. " her cold voice ranged in his ears which make him scoff..

  Ben:" Please, don't get flutter.. " he shake his hand infront of her with a smile that make her scoff..

  Rachel:" Flutter?.. by whom?.. you?.. " she let a scowl run through her face as she cross her arms over chest.. Ben raise his eyebrow preparing for the staring contest she just started..

  Rachel:" Mr.. whoever you are.. let me make one thing clear.. " she look up and down at him before wearing a smirk on her pink lips..

  Rachel:" I will never get flutter by a man who go far beyond his capacity to impress others by his appearance.. " The confident look on his face was exchanged by a confused frown..

  Ben:" Capacity to impress?!.. " he mumbled in low voice enough to be heard in-between them.. God, now a woman who knows nothing of him will talk about his capacity to impress.. this thought is enough to let out a chuckle in disbelief..

  Rachel:" of course.. travelling in your relatives expensive car.. saving up to wear expensive apparels.. ohh.. " she stopped when she again look at his shoes.. he followed her gaze and his eyes opened in disbelief when she clap her hand in delight..

  Rachel:" seems like you still haven't save enough to buy a new pair of shoes.. " Ben nod his head smiling along with her..

   No, it's not her fault at all.. I am just destined to be a laughing stock..

  He thought hiding the his done face under his smile as he could only bite his inner cheek to suppress urging back..

  Ben:" You are right.. I am still in process of getting rid of them.. " Rachel let out a sound of acknowledgment while Ben look down at his shoes.. passing a sharp glare..

  Rachel:" Since you don't seems like a stalker.. I will let it off the hook.. " Ben wore a face great full expression which make Rachel smile at light air between them..

   Rachel:" Now leave.. don't bother me I am waiting for younger Mr.Lincoln.. " She said sitting back on the couch with a sigh..

  Ben look at her for a moment, the audacity to sit on his couches.. his office and permitting him to leave.. he scoff disbelief at the way this woman always left him speechless but soon his lips parted at the insane thoughts clicking his mind..

  Rachel:" why are you still here?.. " she asked taking us the coffee the staff left for her a while ago..

  Ben:" Oh, you must be the interior designer send by the agency.. " he fake his consciousness, thankful that he wasn't wearing his professional office attire at the moment..

  Rachel:" and who can you be?.. " she asked leaning her upper body on her knees making him smile..

  Ben:" I am Be-- " he caught his tongue at the right moment before it could reveal something..

  Ben:" Benzo, PA of Mr.Ben Lincoln.. " His unique name left her speechless but she covered up immediately forcing out a smile..

  Rachel:" Oh.. nice to meet you Mr.Benzo.. I am Rachel slavic, an interior designer who will be taking care of this office.. " Ben felt excited at the way she was trying to handle things professionally..
