Sweet and bitter

Lucille

I lean on my swivel chair where I sat as I took a deep breath.

I just finished typing down some reports and important documents that are needed to be delivered to the Department's Manager.

I reached for the coffee beside my computer and took a sip from it. " Haa.. " I moaned in delight when I felt the warm liquid oozes down my throat.

Nothing is better than a warm coffee for a cold Monday morning.

I stretched my arms up in the air and yawned. " I should deliver this now. " I mumbled as I stared at the two folders on the table. I took the folders and stood up from my seat and exited my office. I was greeted by some of my co-workers with a 'Good morning' which I politely replied with a 'Good morning', too, as I make my way to the Manager's office.

I fixed my dress before I knocked on the door of his office. As soon as I heard someone told me to come in, I twisted the knob and went inside.

" Good morning, sir. " I bowed down my head and set the documents on his table. " Here are the papers that you needed. " I announced.

He reached for the documents and started reading the contents, silently, flipping and checking every pages accurately. " Well done, Cille. " He smiled and set the folders down on the table. " I can really count on you any time. "

I smiled. " Thank you, sir. " I bowed down my head.

" You're dismissed. " I nodded my head and exited his office.

That's one work done for today!

I heave a sigh and went back to my office.

It was afternoon when I went out to take a break and also to eat lunch. With my car, I drove to the nearest and my favorite Japanese inspired Restaurant down town. After parking my car in the parking lot, I went inside the building.

I find myself a seat to the further part of the room and waited for the waiter to take my order. I rest my chin on the palm of my hand as I scanned my eyes to the view outside.

" Lucille. "

I turned my head slightly when I heard someone called for my name and found myself staring up at her. " A-andy? " I blinked for a few times, making sure that it was really her.

It's really her!

" H-hello.. " I stuttered as I waved a hand to her hesitantly.

She stared at me for a second then she sat down on the seat in front of me, silently.

We just sat there in silent. I turned my head to the view outside to avoid her eyes. I can feel her eyes following my every move. From my peripheral vision, I can see her staring at me, trying to read me.

I bit down on my lower lip.

" Do you go here frequently? " She suddenly asked.

I cleared my throat as I fixed my glasses before I answered her question. " Y-yes.. " I nodded my head, smiling. " This is kind of my favorite restaurant since it was built here when I was still a child. "

" I see. " She mumbled.

" Ma'am, may I take your order? " The waiter asked as he held out the Menu's to both of us.

I took it from him with a smile then scanned my eyes through the list of food below. " I'll have this, please. " I said to him, pointing to a certain dish printed in their Menu.

Then I glanced at Andy. " What would you have, Andy? " I asked her.

She glanced away from the Menu then looked up at me. " I would have this, please. " She informed the waiter, pointing at the dish she wanted.

The waiter took our Menu's then he bowed before taking his leave.

After a minute, our orders arrived just in time for lunch.

I clasped my hands together with a smile. " Itadakimasu. " Then picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

I glanced at Andy and she was staring at me, confused.

I blushed a little.

Am I that weird?

" Uuh. That's 'Thanks for the meal' in Japanese. " I explained and laugh awkwardly.

She stared at me for a second then slowly nodded her head. " Okay. "

I mentally scolded myself. Now she thinks I'm weird or something.

I pouted then started eating.

Not a minute after, I heard a crash in front of me. I snapped my head towards Andy. And boy, she just spilled her meal unto her uniform.

She's also clumsy. I heard Glenn's voice in my head.

I immediately stood up and went to her side as the customers' eyes where turned to us. I helped her up and dragged her into the bathroom of the Restaurant.

" You could've at least told me that you don't know how to use chopsticks. " I heave a sigh as I took a handkerchief from my bag then turned to the sink and dumped it with water.

She was silent and didn't say anything the whole time. " Hey. Are you ok-- Aaah! " I gasped in surprise when I was suddenly pushed against the wall. I slowly opened my eyes and found myself staring up at her, gulping.

" Is s-something w-wrong, A-andy? " I stuttered out.

She slowly reached a hand out to me, caressing my cheek gently.

" Lucille. " She whispered, staring at me, intently.

" You're mine. "
