Chapter 27

26|Today was a fairytale

The next morning was quite peaceful. I didn't have creepy dreams, I don't regret my decision of having a therapist. I took Gru for a walk and then I went to my office.

I wore my favorite shirt (white-shirt) and black trousers and a blazer.

I entered the key of the keyboard preparing the report on our company's recent project. I plugged the earphones carefully and put the phone in my blazer's pocket.

I was so drowned in music, I didn't notice Marley, one of a colleague who was asking for a pen. She shook my arm, I gasped as for few seconds, I thought I might get fired for listening to music while working.

"Hey, sorry I didn't want to disturb you but do you have a pen."

"Yeah! I am sorry, I couldn't hear because of these."

I pulled out the earphone and gave a pen from my pouch. She smiled but I was pretty sure, she was cursing me and mocking me about how weird I was.

My phone buzzed, I covered my face and took a deep breath before checking my phone. At first, I thought it might be that Son of a bitch but then I saw it was Alexander.

Hey, I heard that there's this new restaurant, close to our apartment. So I was hoping if you would like to join me.

At first, I glanced at the message for some time as I was still processing it. Then I replied.

Sure

I will pick you up at 7 then.

Okay.

I smiled to myself, Does he has a thing for me.

'Shut up, Abrianna. He is just a friend, like Mai and Carlton(sometimes)'

What if, I start to fall for him.

"Abrianna!"

I made a little noise and dropped the phone along with the earphone that was plugged into it. Fuck!

I revolved the chair to face the owner of the voice... Aaron freaking Brooke. He picked up the phone and handed it to me, luckily it didn't break.

"Jesus Christ, I am so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you."

"It's okay."

"Just wanted to ask you about the report. Is it ready yet?"

"Yeah, All most. I will submit it to you before going home."

"And you are coming right, to my party?"

"Mmm... Yeah."

"And your friends?"

"Yup."

"Okay..then."

I sat in front of the mirror, with my PJs and t-shirt on deciding what to wear.

'I don't have to look good or maybe I have t...I don't know...doesn't matter...or maybe it does matter... Shut up, Abrianna.'

After few seconds, I agreed on wearing a blue top with red stripes and a black pencil skirt. I combed my hair and left it untied. I thought of doing a little makeup, just a little lipstick, and eyeliner.

Not that I have to look perfect.

Alexander was just on time, My doorbell rang at 7 pm. I clenched my purse and raced towards the door.

"Hey!"

He was wearing a grey t-shirt with a black jacket and jeans. He grinned as soon as he saw me.

"Hi!"

I replied and closed the door behind me.

"Umm. You look nice."

He said, I moved my eyebrows and turned my back towards him to lock the door.

"Well. Thank you." I muttered.

°°°

"Hey, why don't you join us at Aaron Brooke's party?" I said as we sat in front of each other, As I leaning near the table, he rested his back on the chair.

"Wel. I don't know who Aaron Brooke is s. I don't think it's a decent idea for me to join."

"Well... He is my colleague and Carlton doesn't know him too but he is going."

I spoke in quite an excited voice. He just stared at me in amazement like I was some Nursery kid speaking nonsense.

"He would need a company, you know."

I said in a low voice and turned my gazed towards my nails, I notice a smile on his lips from the corner of my eyes.

"Well... I don't think Carlton needs any company when he is with Mai but if you need any company, I can go.
