Cheating?

Til We Meet Again

Cole POV

I walk through the doors of my work place, a company that supplies most of the internet services. I am tech support. I help with all the issues people will have with the internet and payment. That's why I always need coffee, so I don't get mad at anyone.

I sit down at my table with my fellow colleagues and I take a sip of my coffee. "Alright guys. There have been issues people have been bringing up due to the new update we are putting out. Most of the questions are 'should I switch to the new plan?' The answer will always be yes. But state out the facts of why they should switch. Alright get to your phones!" And we were off.

My first call was interesting. "Hi I'm Cole! How may I help you?" I spoke with almost no concern for messing up.

"Hoi!!" Came a very nasal accent. He sounded like he was sick. "I have a-a ACHOO!!! Question."

I made a face that made it cramp. I pinched my eyebrows together, and flinched when it finally came out. I'm glad we can't get sick over the phone. "Bless you, sir. What is your question?"

"Ohhh yea. So I have this *sniffle* child. She likes to play around with the cords behind the TV and she must have pulled something. It won't turn on."

"Have you tried to unplug and plug all the cords in again?" I asked. I kept thinking of how much of an idiot he is. But I would never voice that on the phone.

"Yes I have. I think she broke one of the cords." He said that VERY nasal. It kinda made me sick just thinking about it.

"Here. I'll send you to a tech who can be out there to check things out."

"Thanks ACHOO!!" I made that ridiculous face again. So glad he couldn't see me. I transferred him to Mike, our most important tech. He can be out to your house to check things out in half an hour or less.

My next call was pretty much the same but with a different issue. It kept going like this until I got my sixth call. I picked up expecting a male voice.

"Hello! My name is Cole! How can I help you today?" I said with more perkiness than before.

"Hi." I heard a sigh from a female voice. It sounded familiar. I felt bad. Just that sigh. It got to me. "I spilled coffee on my phone this morning. I'm not exactly sure how to fix it." I thought about this morning, thinking about that girl.

"Do you have access to a car? Come into the store and we could fix it up. If it doesn't work after drying it, we can get you a new one!" I said, hoping I can see this girl.

"Okay. I'll be there in a few minutes." She said, enlightened.

"What's your name and email?"

"My name is Aundraya but everyone just calls me Andi and my email is wit*******@gmail.com." I thought about the name. 'How cute' I thought.

"Well Andi. I will see you a little bit!" I was honestly excited to Meet her. She seemed nice.

I had a few more calls before she showed up. But I was at the door when she got here. "Hi I'm Cole. Can I help you?" I asked a few people as they enter. A girl with bright red hair walked through the door and I was stunned. I stood there, staring like a fool.

*snap* " hello? I need some help!" The girl snapped me out of my stump.

"Right sorry! Sorry! My name is Cole! How may I help you?" I stumbled a little bit.

"I called earlier to ask about my phone. I spilled coffee on it."

"Right! I answered earlier!" I stumbled over my words, trying my hardest to keep calm. I looked at her red hair. It was such a bright color. I feel like I have seen it before? I soon came to the realization. 'It's her! It's the girl in the coffee house this morning! I found her!' I tried my hardest not to stumble to the floor.

"Cole? Right? Are you okay?" She gently touched my shoulder, trying to steady my wobbling legs.

"I'm fine. Kind of. So this phone? Let me see." I took the phone from her and started taking it apart. I removed the back and asked "what happened?"

"Well. I was at the coffee store this morning and I had finished my coffee. But I feel asleep on the table and woke up 5 minutes late to work. I had to run out of the shop as fast as I could but I hit a fairly attractive male as I was on my way out and spilled his coffee on the floor." She spoke fast but tried her best not to stumble.

"Well? Your phone looks fine. Just needs a dry. I can dry it in the back. It will only take a few minutes."

"Sure but it's my lunch break so I hope it will be quick."

I left with her phone to the back. I tried to think of a way to tell her that it was me that had been the 'attractive male' at the coffee shop. I walk back out after I put the phone in the drying room.

"Can I ask something? What was the name of the coffee shop?" I slightly stumbled, trying to get the question out.

"It's the one down on the corner. Clouded Coffee I think." She said.

"How do I say this. I think I was the one who got coffee spilled on your phone. I was standing at the front of the store, I saw a dash of red run by. I am assuming it was you." I tried not to mumble.

"Wow. Just my luck! I really thought you were handsome and just. Wow." She put her hands in her pockets. "I uh. I heard so much about you from Kate. I talk with her about how I can't find the right guy. She suggested you." My face ignited with a deep red tint. It ran down my cheek bones.

"W-would you like to go on a date with me?" I asked very shakily. I held my breath waiting for her response. I looked deep into her galaxy eyes just as they changed color. A bright green appeared.

"Yea." She put her head down, a glint in her eye and a light pink shade appearing on her face. I lifted her chin with my finger, telling her not to hide the beauty.

"Let me check on your phone." I said as I walked away slowly, already feeling the effects of being apart. I grabbed her phone and put my number in it quickly and handed it to her as I walked out. "I put my number in it already. Message me when you are free!" And with that, she left. I sat in one of the chairs on the other side of the counter. 'She is beautiful'
