I roll my eyes at his lateness, the clock thicks again and its 10:10, and Sal hasn't still arrived, by 10:15, ill match down to his office because when you give a specific time you should stick to it, im admiring the living room decor out of boredom.
I hear the footsteps of canvas hit the hard tile, i spin my head quickly and i see Sal wearing a white shirt and grey sweatpants with white clean canvas
Awesome, just awesome, he's looking at my body up to down, taking in every inch of me, lingering his eyes in a way that i feel suddenly uncomfortable, i fold my arms, hoping to distract him. "What are you wearing?" I ask when my plan fails.
"Cloths" he says "what are you wearing?" I shut my eyes tight almost embarrassed "cloths" i mimic him and he smirks for a second before going back to his normal composure. "Are you ready?" He asks, leaning on the kitchen island, grabbing an apple from a bowl of fruits. Im thinking; running upstairs and making better choices of clothes or ignoring it and looking like the ceo of a huge company.
I look at Sals outfit again and i shrug, on the good side, i look like the boss and he doesnt, lets leave the shoes out of it "yes" i say and he flashes me a nod and starts walking and i follow him, wherever we're going i need Sal to stand behind me and look like the assistant, but he's taking long strands and i dont think with that i can pull the idea i have imagined.
He opens the Door for me, putting his fruit in his left hands. The compound is soo huge and i would've explored it. If not the doors were always locked when Sal was gone, i had the idea that only him, Dior and that bleach-head man had the keys to the house.
I followed him towards his car and i beat him to opening the door for me, i have hands so let me use them. I got in and so did he. I put on my seatbelt. "You know i can drive right?" He asks as he watches me. "I know, seat belts should be on at all time, you never know what can happen" i defend. "Nothing would or can happen, ive been driving since i was 16" he says starting car, still biting on his apple
16? Im 17 and i dont know how to even turn on a car. It makes me wonder how old Sal is now. "Natural disaster can happen" i say and he sighs "like?"
"Rain, tornado, etcetera" i say running out of reasons and he chuckles "rain, tornado and etcetera" he repeats like he's trying to memorize the words.
"How old are you?" I ask trying to change topic. His eyes are now on the road, "how old do i look?" He asks and i decide to piss him off a bit "46" i say and Sals glance at me, "yeah and you look 11" he says like we are having a normal conversation, im almost offended but i decide to go along with it "This is child abuse" i say and he's eyes are focused on his steering wheel "yes it is, rage" he says.

Im titling my head slightly admiring the huge building covering with grey painting and a huge glass doors and walls on the first floor, the second floor has a huge capitalized cursive write up of LAI's EMPIRE. If this is an empire they're should many business organization around the world under Lais. The third floor is clothed with a light shade grey.
"You coming?" Sal asks snapping out of my thoughts, i nod and follow him. Im not sure i can pull my rich-girl act here, we walk in the building and my skin is immediately exposed to the cool air, the room is freezing and im starting to think that i should have worn blazers, the room scents like beauty, strawberry and velvet.
The walls are painted with a light shade of rose-gold and there's a huge wall, a wall painted with flowers, red, gold, and pink. It doesnt look spray painted ofcourse, which makes me wonder how the hell the painter drew flowers with just brushes.
