Beth's POV
"What did you just say to my parents?" Clark complain as he drive his car. Don't be greedy they are my parents too so OUR PARENTS I said to him. I am just being honest okay I added. "Uggh I can't believe you". I thought you're living with your parents I ask him "Yes I am but they wanted me to get you home safely" Clark answer. Thanks, So can I have now my money I ask "Yes you can have it tomorrow" he said. There must have a bonus "Look who's greedy here" he said. Well I just needed money I answer. "Where will you use it?" Clark ask. Well I'll send it to my sister she'll be paying for her college fee I answer him.
We arrive at the hotel I am staying, without me noticing. Thanks for the ride I said, "Don't be late tomorrow" he said I smile, wave my hand then he continue to drive. I stretch my arm outward and jump for a second to lossen myself I couldn't believe of what happen. Whenever I see Clark's parents happy I fell happy too. I enter my room and excited of tomorrow I am happy to meet new personalities.
It's six O'clock in the morning when I woke up, my work starts at 8 so I decided to exercise for thirty minutes. I think it would be better for me to jog so that I will know the different street here, the park are also near the hotel. As I was jogging in the park I've seen a familiar face, Akio! I shout at him then he look at me with surprise he is wearing a jacket and a jogging pants. "Wow what a coincidence" He said. Are you jogging here everyday I ask him "No actually it's my second day here in Japan" he answer then I remember from the conversation at the restaurant yesterday that he just came from US. Their family own a cement factory and other construction materials. Their company and the HAN BUILDERS were partners, Akio Hama is a Japanese he was sent to US by his parents to study and he is the only son if Mr and Mrs Hama meaning he is the heir of the multi dollar company but before he could handle the business his parents want him to start at the lowest so he was working at the company as an assistant manager.
We continue to jog then we stop at the gym area of the park where in there are leg press, sit up board, ski walker, sitting rotator and others. We try the equipment and it's so nice Akio did push ups, I tried to sit on his back but he's so fast that I ended up hurting my butt. Why did you get up! I shout at him "Do you think I didn't see you coming?" he said. Uggh don't start with me I said to him "Let me massage it, where's the part that was hurt?" he ask. Yuuukk!! I scream, he was just laughing at me Ugghh I hate this guy my impression of him at first is friendly but I was wrong he was a pervert. He was holding his stomach while he sits on the bench near us, he was bursting with laughter. "Where are you going were not yet done here!" He shout at me while I walk out. I am tired I said then I left him laughing like a crazy. Ishhh I hate that guy, After I finished bathing I went now to the kitchen to eat some pancakes.
I was now sitting in my office when Mrs Mary Lambert came in with a pile of folders. "Beth these will be the documents you need to review, you must finish it by next week" She said. I'll do my best to finish it as soon as possible I answer her "well good luck" she said then she leaves the room. Ughhh there's a lot of work to do. While I was reading the report there was a knock on my door come in I said. To my surprise it was Akio, what are you doing here? I ask him "Nothing I'd just like to ask if your butt is okay" He answer. I throw him the pen I was holding, get out of here!!!! I shout at him at the top of my lungs. He get out of the room then came back "Relax, See you later Beth" He said with teasing. I walk towards the door then I noticed all eyes were towards me Issshhhh I just whine then I close the door gently. Ugghhhh that guy he's giving me head ache.
It's already time for lunch break when I reach the Vice President's office I open the door and found no one in the room.Where did he go I ask my self then I went to Mrs Lambert to ask her. Mrs Lambert where did Clark go I ask the lady "He had a meeting outside the company" she answer. Okay thank you I said, well I think I'll be having my solo lunch today. I was now infront of a cafe near the company I didn't want to go further because I don't have anyone with me. I ordered coffee and a bread ppfff my lunch is also sad. While I was having my lunch all eyes were towards me and it seems like they were talking about me I do understand some Japanese words but not fully. I heard some lady said that "Woah look at her was she risen from the dead?". Because of the eyes around me I tried to finish as fast as I could, they are so weird. As I run towards the exit some of the female bow their head in me. Well maybe they've seen me with the VP so they must respect me. I was now in the lobby of the company when I've seen Clark. Where have you been I ask him "Ah I meet some clients outside" he answer I smile then I continue heading towards the elevator. I can see it in his eyes that he is wondering. He was talking someone so he didn't bother to follow me.
I was desperate to finish the review less than a week so I immediately started reading the reports. As I look at my wristwatch I can't believe I didn't stop working for 5 hours I started 1pm then I ended 6pm and there was 1 hour OT. My phone was ringing I look at the caller ID "Handsome Akio" was written. I smirk then I wonder how did that guy have my number and he added his name in my contacts. Then I remembered we took selfie in the park so that's how he get my number. What! don't start with me again please I am tired I said as I answer the phone "Okay ma'am, what are you doing anyway?" he ask. I am busy reading reports 'cause they need it for approval next week I answer. "Whoah thats great Clark would be so happy to know her sister is working her butt so much" he said teasingly. Akio! I am tired okay I shout at him. "Sorry" he said. "Would you like to go out eat with me? as a friend?" he added. Wow you call yourself a friend? I question him then he just laugh. "Ain't we friends?" he ask.
