Love Alive ☆Lis+☆

CHAPTER 2

Lisa's POV

Irene Bae...

Is it just me or this day does really a cursed one? Well I guess the latter explains my situation at this very moment, I just can't believe that she's here, right in front of me giving me the gaze that literally gives me goosebumps from my head to toe, why today, why not tomorrow or the next day.

I don't really know what should I do,

should I thank her,

or should I pretend I didn't know her and run back to where my friend is,

Well, how could I run if this situation leaves my feet nailed on the ground, and as I already chose the first one and start to give her my gratitude someone with an angelic voice speaks.

"Mommy, this place is really big, should I tell Dada to brought us here more often and enjoy everything in here? It's really beautiful, look." A pretty little girl in her fifth year said with a wide beautiful smile and a really amazed expression that could be seen in her angelic face while pointing on the furnitures hanging on the wall.

I lost in my trance as I look to the child making her way to the different side of the hallway, checking every figurines, furnitures, paintings, and even the design of every corner of this floor.

Just looking at this little human enjoying herself roaming around makes my heart flutter, watching her with that beautiful smile in her lips that seems very familiar makes me also smile widely, which is very rare.

According to others, they sees me as a very serious person specially when it comes to my workplace, of course first things firsts, everything should be organized and well planned, others might say I'm snob, well I guess because I'm not that into casual talk as long as it's not about work or any important matters. I'm probably the "kill joy friend" of the team as what they call it since I don't usually go to any hang outs set by my friends, well of course except when there's a VIP that might lead us eventually on possible projects.

"Of course, anything you like my little
munchkin since it's your birthday, dada might grant all your wish." Ms. Bae said while looking lovingly on the child and back to me giving me the dead eyed glare which I already conclude what it is.

I look at her with wide eyes and I want to approach her immediately after that mind opening statement of her when someone calls me.

"Lisa, thank God you're already here." a man on his 50s approach me with worried look on his face.

"You! Idiot! You only have a minute to prepare for the presentation, Mr. Lee would be in our reserved room any moment now." Mr. Dee, our team leader, while grabbing my arms but before he proceed on walking he stopped as he saw the lady in front of me and bow his head for a moment like asking for the permission to drag me anywhere else but here.

I'm already meters away from them before I literally back on my own tracks, what did just happen? The elevators already close as I seeing them enjoying each others company, I know for sure my mind was a mess like I don't really have the time to moved on from one to another, I want to go back where I'm peacefully sleeping, without minding this possible big project for our team, seeing her at this very epic moment and forgetting this important day. Am I dreaming? Someone please poke or smack my head out there.

The elevator rings indicating that we're already on our destination floor.

"You know what kid! Start gaining yourself, as I said to you, I trust you with this, everything will be fine, just give your best shot." Mr. Dee said while tapping my shoulder then my head as we enter the assigned room of our presentation.
