SMITTEN BY HER (unedited)

I had no idea he could be so..thoughtful...

      "Why did he leave all of the sudden? " Crystal ask Sophia almost in a whisper.

   "Are you asking me? " Sophia ask with a raised eyebrow.

"Of course i am" Crystal replies making Sophia let out a sigh of resignation.

"I don't obviously know" Sophia says eating a fruit from the bowl.

As she spoke, she popped a juicy strawberry into her mouth, savoring the sweetness. Crystal watched, fascinated by Sophia's carefree nature.

"So why did you prefer eating fruits than the food penelope got you" Crystal asked curiously.

Sophia shrugged, her smile playful. "Maybe I'm not that hungry after all."

°How then can i tell her that i had a bad feeling about the food. Won't she stare at me as crazy? °Sophia thoughts to herself munching on the fruits.

"You know you aren't so bad after all" Crystal says with a friendly smile while Sophia gave her the look that says   'like seriously. '

"What makes you think so? " Sophia asks with a raised eyebrow.

"All the ladies Master has brought so far are so rude, bossy and the rest but you're different" Crystal says with a smile.

"Why obviously won't i be when i'm not a sl*t or something" Sophia says rolling her eyes playfully.

"You aren't.............. "

"You can leave now" Mr. Lee interrupted as Crystal left immediately.

"Wasn't that too harsh? " Sophia asked .

"My house my rules"Mr. Lee says coldly while sitting on his chair.

" So? "Sophia ask with hands akimbo while Mr. Lee still got his eyes on his laptop.

" But........... "

"Don't be late for work tomorrow" Mr. Lee interrupted coldly, not sparing her a glance.

"But i know nothing about being your P. S {Personal Secretary } and besides i don't even have office wears not to talk of the casuals" Sophia whines as a smirk plays on Mr. Lee's face.

"Don't out smart me you little pumpkin. Kai has already made all the arrangements" Mr. Lee finally spoke making Sophia to just stare at him.

Sophia's eyes narrowed, her mind racing. "Did you just call me 'little pumpkin?"

°Did i? °He asks himself.

Mr. Lee's expression turned innocent, but Sophia saw the glint in his eye. "Don't put words into my mouth, Sophia. "

"Ok, goodluck i'm off to the room" Sophia says taking the bowl of fruits with her but first she went over to Mr. Lee.

"Eat this" She says giving him a red apple which he ignores.

Their fingers touched, sparking a jolt of electricity. Mr. Lee's eyes met hers, his gaze intense.

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away," Sophia whispered, her voice husky.

Mr. Lee's lips curled into a hint of a smile, and he took a bite of the apple, their eyes locked in a silent understanding.

As Sophia smiled, Mr. Lee's icy demeanor remained unyielding. "Now, are you satisfied?" he asked, his voice as frosty as the morning dew as he broke the contact.

Sophia's scoff echoed through the room, a mix of amusement and incredulity. "Unbelievable," she muttered, shaking her head in wonder.

As she departed, Sophia's mind whirled with thoughts, her curiosity piqued. She entered her new room, revealed to her earlier by Crystal, and was struck by the opulence that surrounded her.

Her wardrobe and cupboard were lavishly stocked with an array of ladies' finery, each item more stunning than the last.

"I had no idea he could be so...thoughtful," Sophia mused, her eyes widening as she explored the treasures within.

"It's as if he knew my favorite color was blue," she whispered, marveling at the sea of azure hues that adorned her new space.

"Isn't this much? " She asks herself.
