Cindy's POV :

Today I went to work-- late as usual. Everyone greeted me right after I stepped foot into the office. Is this some kind of tradition they have or something? I sigh, the office is busy as usual.. Which means more work, I'm starting to get dark eye circles! I slip into my chair, I'll start with the pile containing.. a thousand papers! ..I don't know what these words mean. I yawn, a little nap.. wouldn't.. hurt..

..I hear someone placing things on my desk, I lift my head up. "..Huh?! Why-- Where did all of these deserts come from?!" I exclaim. "The boss ordered it. Enjoy." two women said as they took their leave. I stare at all the food, strawberry and chocolate cake.. A glazed donut.. A snow.. cone? Why is there so much food.. I can't eat all of this, does Jackson even expect me to eat this all?! "Hey cutie~" I hear. I lift my head, it's that man.. "Oh, hello.. I'm sorry, what was your name..?" I ask. "Mmm.. Give me your donut and I'll tell you!" he says while smiling. I tilt my head, a donut. He wants a donut. I nod while slowly handing him the glazed donut, "Thanks cutie~" he says while rushing back to his desk. What. Did I just get swindled. That was mine..! I get up from my desk, I opened my mouth about to say something until the man stuffed the donut into my mouth. "Ack! Mffmm!" I pulled the donut out of my mouth, "What was that--" He smiled, "You better eat that, we aren't gonna eat until seven today." Huh? We? He looked at me, "..We're having dinner with our company tonight." Company.. That wouldn't mean the CEO, too.. right? I mean, not like I would even care.

"Newbie~ Are you finished yet~? We're leaving now~" the man teases. "..Just a moment." I mumble while packing up. "Ah! That's right! You haven't me your name yet!" I remind him. He points to his cheek. "..What?" I ask. "Give me a kiss and I'll tell you~" he answers while smirking. ...I give him a small peck and turn away to get my bag, "N-Now you have to tell me!" He laughs, "Just call me Yu Chen." he says. "Yu Chen..? Isn't that--" I begin, "Chinese. I'm Chinese-American." he finishes. "Ah.. Well.. um.. Let's get going then..!" I say while hurrying out with the others.

"Cheers!" my 'co-workers' say as I clink my glass of water with them. It smells like alcohol everywhere.. "Welcome, Boss." I hear them greet. I look up, Jackson bends down and whispers, "Did you miss me, princess?" I pull away from him, idiot. "..Cutie~~" the man whines while leaning on a co-worker. "He drank too much again.. Wait. Newbie, why does your face look so red?" a woman questions me. I feel my cheeks, "Huh..?!" Why does it feel so hot..?

That night, t
he atmosphere was exciting. But Jackson seemed weirder like usual.. Nothing happened, right..? Why am I even wondering about him?! He can have anything in the world, who would need to care the slightest bit about that pig. Hmph.
