He stood there watching her giggle like a fool, gritting his teeth—angry that she is so comfortable with that son of a bitch. He took a deep breath remembering the vow he made. He will take back what was his. Soon. And with a discreet smile while watcing the girl he walked away and was gone in a blink of an eye. As if he was never there.

"And a little colour over the side of the skirt, darling. Yes.....yes that will do" Finn commented on the interns sketch. The design on the dress looks exquisite and he had been contemplating whether to use the design for his newest project.

"And...what colour do you suggest? Maybe a lighter colour for the spring theme?" the Asian girl asked—her glasses perched on the bridge of her nose giving of an adorable-like look. Finn frowned, thinking various of colours for the dress. He turned to Rey, who was sitting on the couch with a disturbed expression on her lovely face. She looks frustrated, maybe because of her office duties.

That hunk of a boss of hers is sure hard to handle. My poor peanut is getting wrinkles at a young age!

"Hey Rey, do you have any suggestions?" Finn asked her trying to distract her from whatever it is occupying her mind. Rey jumped at the sound of a voice. She turned to Finn, dumbfounded.

"W-what did you say?" Finn sighed and showed her the design

"We were discussing some colours for the dress and we just wanna know if you had any suggestions" Rey looked at it, staring at it for some time. Finn was mortified when he saw her eyes welled up and then she started crying.
He signalled his intern to give them a moment.

"Hey, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell today? Do you need a doctor? Is it because of that jerk? I'll kill him!" He turned to get the jerk when he heard laughter behind him. He turned slowly and was shocked to see her face. Black lines trailed down cheeks making her look like Ursula's sister and the worst part is that she is smiling.

"Peanut.....are you okay?" Finn asked, unsurely thinking she might turned into something else.
Rey wiped her face before turning to him with a soft expression. He still called her with that adorable nickname.

She could still remember how they first met. He was a newbie in a fashion industry and she just recently had the twins and was trying to find a job to support them.

Fortunately, Finn was there to help. He wanted to succeed in his latest project but all the model in the industry were either too skinny or too tall. And when he saw Rey he felt like she is the perfect girl for his project. He strikes a deal with her—he wanted her to be the model for his project and in return she will be paid according to her performance. Finn's company were very generous. They would let the employees to pick their own model and they will pay them respectively. At first Rey was shy to do the photoshoot but with Finn's support she passed it with flying colours. Finn kept calling her peanut during the photoshoot because of her beautiful curvy figure. And it turns out she was marvelous in it!

After her pay, she insisted that she took Finn to dinner and after hours of begging, he finally cave in. She even brought the twins. Finn played with them during dinner and he even opened up to Rey that he is gay and in a relationship. She doesn't seem surprised to this because of how he kept talking about dresses and nail polish. Who would have thought that they would be friends.

"You think you can kill Ben? You can't even speak to him properly without stuttering! You became a hot mess in front of him!" Rey laughs hysterically while Finn just glared at her.
