the 24/7 smile

Chapter 6

A well suited teenager sat in a limousine, seemingly bored as he rested his hand on the door handle, determined to get the meeting done with.

A wrinkly hand decorated with rings on it's fingers rested on his knee. He turned around to face his mother's warm smile.

'You will be attending your first meeting today! How do you feel?' She asked, squeezing her son's knee lightly as she her eyes strayed to his hand on the door handle.

'They let me bring Momo along so i guess it isn't that bad.' He mumbled softly, shifting his knee away from his mother's hand as an indication that he had nothing else to say.

His mother hummed in agreement, eyes fixed on the back of his head.

'I'm afraid this is the only chance you get to bring Momo long. Meetings don't usually include cats, Daimen.' She said softly as she stared at the building that was slowly coming into view.

Daimen only grumbled, a little upset but not surprised.

'You're going to go in there and take a look at their newly-launched fashion products for me while i make my way somewhere else for an urgent meeting.' She explained when the limousine stopped outside the building.

'You said that like 10 times already, chill i know what to do im not that unreliable.' Daimen said giving the mom a small smile as he exited the limo, receiving the black cat carrier from a security guard.

Daimen's mother smiled at the sight before her.

'Well, have fun, dear!' She said as the limo drove off again, leaving Daimen standing alone in front of the fashion company building.

He complied as a security guard brought him up to the meeting room.

He tried to compose himself as he entered the room, completely forgotten about the conditions he had set for his first meeting due to him being upset.

But he couldn't help but snort at the sight of the room, the throne being most eye catching.

He walked towards it and sat on it before noticing a cat bed beside the throne.

They sure met my expectations.

Letting out an amused grunt, he let Momo out of the carrier to explore the cat bed.

Sitting himself on the throne, he lifted his head to catch sight of a woman.

She was around her twenties and had her brown hair down to rest on her shoulders. Her dark brown eyes met mine and she cleared her throat.

Looking carefully she was, indeed, really pretty in that suit she was wearing.

Daimen couldn't help but notice that everyone else in the meeting had a party pooper and he giggled slightly.

The woman seemed unaffected, but her lips quickly turned up in a smile as she greeted him.

His eyes widened as he leaned in as close as he could towards the woman.

Sensing the familiar tense aura around her lips, he frowned.

She used magic?

What for?

He couldn't wrap his head around it as he listened to the woman talk, eyes fixed on her lips.

"Now, to show you how our products look like, i've invited some if our company's famous models." She stated, moving aside as the models strayed in from the meeting door.

Daimen had to admit that he loved the design of the products and would definitely recommend it, but that was not before he saw something.

He pointed to the woman.

"No, i want you to wear the products."
