Through The Lens of ❤️ [Completed]

Net

I grabbed my car keys before making my way out. I was about to get into my car when my manager called me, saying that the photoshoot with P Jes had been cancelled. Apparently, he had fallen down and hurt his wrist in an accident yesterday and was out of commission.

I nodded grimly and hung up the phone, thankful that I didn't make a wasted journey. Just as I was about to get out of my car, the phone rang again. I looked at the ID to realize it was P Jes.

"Hello P, are you ok? My manager just called to inform me."

"Hello, Net. Yes. Somewhat. I am sorry. I called to apologize because things have been messed up again because of me."

"Don't worry P. It's not even your fault. How did you fall down?"

I burst out laughing against my better notion as P Jes filled me in on how he had slipped on a stick of butter and fallen in the kitchen whilst baking! I could hear the amusement and embarrassment in his voice as he filled me in! I told him to take care and rest well and hung up the phone.

Since I had the day free, I decided to go meet JJ to hang out for a bit. I went to this cafe where JJ was at and we had a fun day out, trying out new pastries and drinks while doing some pottery. JJ enjoyed such stuff and since we were still actively promoting our series, we often made sure to meet to engage in fan service so that we were keeping relevant. Once we were done, I sent JJ off to the taxi stand while I decided to go get some groceries for my house. I was perusing the produce when I saw P Jes at the baking aisle. He hadn't seen me and was busy checking some ingredients out. I laughed to myself as I reflected on the bravery of this man to want to continue baking despite the accident he just had. 

I went over to him and tapped him on his shoulder. We were relatively of the same height, so I just tapped and stood behind him. He turned and nearly got a heart attack seeing me up close. I grinned as I checked in on what he was doing at the baking aisle given that he had just suffered an accident. He sheepishly filled me in that he still needed to get some cookies done by tomorrow for his sister's birthday party. 

"Do you need any help with that, P? I am no wizard in the kitchen, but I can definitely handle baking cookies. I have done it a few times with James and my own family too."

"Ah no Net. its ok. I got this. My mom is swinging by to help me after she had heard on what had happened to me, clearly trusting me no more." 

I nodded, smiling at him, asked him to take care and took my leave. Just as I was about to walk away, P Jes called out to me. 

"Net, can I just ask you for a favour though?"

I turned around to him, "Yes P?"

"Could you help me with the basket? Its heavier than I expected, and my dominant hand is injured so I am struggling to carry it a bit. If you could help me till the counter, I will be grateful."

I nodded, carrying the basket effortlessly. I stayed with throughout and helped to carry the basket of groceries to his car too. 

"Will you be able to manage driving home, P?"

P Jes nodded, filling me in that his mother was also at his apartment so she will help him out. I agreed and was about to take my leave. 

"Thank you for helping me, Net." 

"No problem, P. It's a small thing. I will see you around then."

He nodded and I went off, both of us unaware that we were going to meet hours later the next day.

A/N: You see, P Jes's sister was actually Net's university mate, so the world is indeed smaller than we give it credit for. Hang in there, as this story slowly takes off.
