I'm Lu Xia. A 21 year old young lady living in a lousy apartment *in a tone of being annoyed. Well it's not that lousy though, I mean at least there's water and electricity,right?
Across my apartment is a C O F F E E S H O P,
namely "Mi Café". I'm currently working there as a part timer,since I get rejected by some companies that are trash.
In Lin Xi's apartment...
"Why did I even bother myself going for an interview in that company?!" I asked myself.
"Well,you've always wanted to be a secretary,right?" my neighbour Lin Xi replied.
"Shut up, okay! I'm not talking to you. You should just comfort me,I feel so down" *in a tone of sadness.
"Well,it's not my fault why you failed your interview...AGAIN AHAHA HAHA !" *laughing while saying this.
*I got so annoyed and pissed because of Lily,that I actually left her apartment grumpily.
I went out for a little bit to get fresh air. Actually I was just in "Mi Café". I ordered my favourite café Blanca.
As soon as I was done with my café,I looked at my watch to check the time. "Oh crap!,it's my shifting time!" Since I was in a rush,I Walked fast as I could,then suddenly I bumped into someone...
"Oh my god,I'm really really sorry" *in a panting tone.
"No no no,it's okay. It was my fault for not noticing you were coming." *he really sounded sorry.
He quickly gets up and help me with a hand,and as soon as I as gonna thank him,my breath stopped! "holy cow,is he even human?!" *saying this on my mind.
He looks so perfect. His eyes reminds me of the ocean,his lips reminds me of a garden filled with pink roses. His skin... are so soft like a new born baby. Damn, he's just too perfe--
"Uhm,excuse me? I actually thought you're in a hurry" he said.
Crap what was I doing!
"Uh yeah,thank you so much and sorry at the same time!" and I quickly run to our changing room.
I was panting so heavily,that I grabbed 1 litter of water,and finished it all.
"He's so cute!" "Omg,where?!" my colleagues were bumping into each other looking through the door.
I was so curious about it, so I went there obviously,I love gossip,pfft.
My breath stopped for a minute again,I saw him again,sitting at the corner of the shop all alone.
I was wondering if I'd talk with him,maybe just for a bit,don't want to make the first move *laughing.
And so,I put on my uniform,getting ready,and went near to him...
I was holding my breath,telling my self... "Hang in there Lu Xia!"...
I arrived at his table,and I said...
TO BE CONTINUED...
"Uhhh,hiii?" I'm really talking awkward,damn.
"Oh,hello. Are you okay now?" he asked calmly.
"Oh yeah,tha-. Oh,by the way,I'm just here to take your order."
"Don't want to be making the first move though" whispering to myself.
"Make the what move?" *clueless.
Oh for goodness sake,he actually heard that.
"Uhh, I said I was gonna take your first order." while I smile awkwardly and looking left and right...to escape this weirdly awkward conversation we are having.
"I'll be having the café Blanca." he smiled.
"That's my favourite café here,is it your favou--
Oh dear,I'm sorry for asking to much,I'll get going."
And as soon as I walked away he grabbed my hand and said...
"No,it's okay... maybe we have more common things we have." he looks at me with his ocean eyes blankly.
My heart was beating so fast. I didn't even noticed I was blushing... infront of him!! Ughssss.
"Oh,okaay****." and I quickly run to the counter.
I started to make my favourite café,I mean his order. Which was his favourite too.
I kept on looking at him,wondering what he was looking. Is he single? I might ask as well.
As soon as I finished his café,I placed it on the tray,carefully...
As soon as I'm standing near him,I placed the tray while saying... "Here's your café Blanca, Sir."
I smiled.
"Oh,thank you, Ma'am."
"You don't have to call me "sir" though,my name is Bai Ling." he smiled.
Here it goes again. I was out of breath,his lovely name,I've got to know it...
"**I'm Lu Xia,you can call me Lu Lu."
"Okay,Lu Lu**." and he was offering a hand shake.
I blushed while shaking his and seeing him smile towards me. He has a perfect smile. He even has dimples. Oh my,where can I even find this kind of man.
"Lu Lu,can we chat for awhile?" he ask with a flirty tone.
"Uh yeah,sure..." I said.
"**So, where do you live Lu Lu?"
"I just live across this shop,in that building."
"Oh,that... So you're living in an apartment?"
"Yeah kind of, I'll be moving out anyway as soon as I get a full time job."
"What job do you wanna have**?" he asked out of curiosity.
"To be a secretary of a famous CEO. Sounds kinda weird but yeah,it's better than those unknown CEO." I answered honestly.
"Oh really! My father runs a company,have you ever heard of "Crystal CC"?" he asked.
"Uh,yeah! That's like the country's most Rick company." " And you father, runs it?!" I asked in a shock.
"Yeah,but he will hand it to me soon,since he's getting old,and since I'm the eldest of our family" he answered.
"**Oh,so you're the eldest,I'm the eldest too,that's another common thing we have."
"Oh really,right! Another thing in common**." he laughs.
Since he's the eldest,I wonder how old he is,I mean I'm still 21,so I'm really hoping he was just around 24 or something.
"So,not to be rude,how old are you Ling? I asked.
and he answered...
TO BE CONTINUED...
"I'm still 26,I just actually turned 26 last Tuesday" while patting himself in the head.
Well,I did expect that he's older than me,but didn't expect him to be 26,he looks younger than his actual age,anyways...
"Oh really,I thought you were like 24 or something,sorry about that" I said.
"Nah,it's fine. I do hear that most of the ti--"
"Are you single?" I asked without thinking...
"What's wrong with you Lu Lu,how could you ask him that?! You totally screwed up Lu Lu" saying this on my mind while covering my face with the tray...
And so,I put down the tray,but little did I know,he started to blush... "Is it because of what I've asked?" "Does this mean he's single?!" *wondering.
"I've been single for quite some time now..." he answered.
"Oh, really, why? What happened to your past relationship?" I asked out of curiosity again...
I was wondering if it'd be okay to ask this question,I mean we need to have some privacy,right?
"Oh nothing much,we always fought over the phone and tha--"
" Did the both of you hd some misunderstanding?" I interrupted him without even realizing...
"She kept on blaming me that I was the one who was cheating and..."
I noticed he was kinda sad when he said this,maybe it was the girl who cheated...
Well,I might just say this...
"She was the one who cheated,right? I asked.
He looked at me,and stared at me blankly...
"Uhh,you guessed it right. She was the one who cheated" smiling bitterly...
I started to wonder who this girl might be,I mean she's kinda dumb for cheating. She has a boyfriend which was almost every girl's dream!
Maybe she was looking for a sugar daddy,pfft laughing while imagining things.
"Uh Lu Lu?" Ling asked me while waving his hand at me.
Damn,I forgot he was still there,my bad.
"Oh yeah,Ling, sorry. Sooo-- I'll ask this question out of curiosity,what was the reason she cheate--"
I didn't get the chance to finish what I was gonna ask... He smack the table,and stands...
I was really shocked and scared at the same time. "Did I say something wrong?" I asked.
"Sorry Lu Lu,I have to go..." he answered.
He really seemed to be annoyed with the question I was gonna ask. I mean more like to be,he was annoyed... because of me!
"Oh dear,I messed up again!" I shouted,and got the attention of our costumers... I quickly tidied up the table and quickly run into the changing room. I was at my locker,standing there saying...
"Why did I even bother asking that stupid question?!"
"Ughss! I better go make up with him!"
And so,I quickly went outside of our shop,but I was too late,he left with his Lamborghini Aventador. "I guess he's kinda rich for having the kind of car."
I went inside the shop looking so disappointed with myself and full of hesitations.
"What happened there Lu Lu?" my colleagues asked.
I didn't give them an answer... I didnt even gave them a look. I felt so down...
