Jim arrived home quarter to twelve, his mother was sitting on the couch waiting for him. "What happened to you?" She asked pretending to care. "Oh nothing. Just some accident. A robber tried to snatch miss Mayim's bag and I ran after him to recover her bag." He explained. "Bummer. Still hoping to get noticed by that girl?" She chuckled. "Anyway, just because you got beaten up doesn't mean that you're excused." She added and rubbed her fingers together asking for money from him. Despite that he didn't want to give, he took the $30.00 from his wallet and gave it to her. "$30.00?" She snorted. "What will I do with this? Buy tampons? Give me all your money. All of it." She demanded. "That's all I got, mom..." He tried to explain. " Jim, if you're gonna keep going home with these coins, you better work your ass off some more!" She began yelling at him. "How about the girl your drooling over with? The Mayim? You know, your boss? She's rich right? Flirt with her some more and get some money from her!" She affronted him. "Please don't talk to her like that. I don't like her because of her money-"
"Then fuck off! Stop crawling over that bitch if you are looking for some gooey cliché love affair because you know what? She's rich, beautiful, successful, smart and you're so below her league. You're dumb, you're an ass, you've got nothing, you're worthless!" She put him down. "You don't use this!" She pointed at his forehead. "You're stupid! She'll never notice you so stop dreaming and fuck off." She continued and threw the $30.00 bill at him and walked away leaving him broken and humiliated.
He felt so down as he felt that her words were true. He doesn't and will never stand a chance on Mayim. He went to his room feeling so dejected and looked at Mayim's picture trying to convince himself to stop dreaming about her already because it's never gonna happen.
Never.

The next days have been rough for Jim, he tried his best to avoid himself from further falling for Mayim and the fact that he feels like she doesn't notice it because she doesn't care at all hurts him even more. She would still act like the usual, be sweet to her boyfriend, Ryan, make out and kiss him in front of him and it breaks him – he can't do anything about it anyway. She didn't force him to love her, it was his will. Little did Jim know that Mayim noticed his sudden coldness but she just convince herself to shrug it off, just like his mindset, she thinks that she doesn't have the right to complain because she's not his girlfriend.
Mayim arrived at the office when suddenly, something caught her attention. She saw Jim and the finance department head, Kaley Cuoco, talking to each other and she noticed how ecstatic Kaley was whilst talking to him. Despite that she wants to shrug it off, she went straight to her office and tried to forget about it but it annoys her – she's jealous.
So that's why he's being cold? Because she has another chick he's praising. What an ass. He isn't different, he's just like the other fuck boys. Damn it.
Meanwhile, Jim entered the office smiling. "Good morning, miss Mayim." He greeted and she didn't respond. She was stealing glances at him as he sat down his desk – still smiling while using his phone. She thought of something to be able to talk to him. She took her recent project's folder and strode to his desk.
"Can you get me five copies of this file?" She asked him. He took the folder and stood up. "Of course." He replied, she was annoyed how he seem not to notice the anger in her tone. "Make it ten." She haltered him. "Alright." He replied politely, she hated how he was still smiling. "No, just five." She interfered. "Uhm. Five or ten?" He asked. "Five." She replied and he left. She sat back down to her desk so annoyed of how happy he seems to be when he's being cold to her. He returned with the five copies and handed it to her.
