When They First Met

Part 6

Maia's POV

She woke up late.
Work starts at 7am and she got up at 6.35am. Apparently her alarm didn't ring. "Idiot." She muttered to herself while she rushed to get ready for work. By the time she was done, it was already 6.50am. She called her colleague to let her team know that she was going to be late. She quickly hailed for a cab. There goes her goals for not spending money on cabs.

When she got to work, her manager saw her and chided her for being late and went on about how she used to be so punctual and continued talking. Maia just nodded her head and apologized once her manager stopped talking. "I won't be late again Sister." she said to her manager.

She hurried along to her workstation and said sorry to her team and started her work. Time passed and soon, it was her turn to go for her lunch break. She handed over what her colleague needed to follow up on and left to grab a quick bite.

During her lunch break, she scrolled through her phone and opened the dating app. She looked at this guy's profile again. "Daniel Lee.. hmm.." she thought to herself. She decided to give it a try and replied back with a hey.

Right after she replied back, she was questioning herself why she replied to this Daniel guy. She continued to update her profile and her break soon ended so she switched off her phone and headed back to work.
