Chapter 3: Memories
Eric
*Eric closed his eyes as the painful memories resurfaced*
Eric walks closer to Aiden, who had been standing all alone with a bouquet in his hand, drenched by the rain.
Aiden
Where have you been? *tries to smile*
Eric
Ah sorry, I got held up at the party
Aiden
I've been waiting for the last 3 hours for you in the rain, you could have at least sent a message or told-
Eric
Stop being such a crybaby Aiden!!! You are annoying. I wouldn't want to go on a date with an annoying prick anyway
With that, Eric turned around and walked away, deaf to Aiden's pleas of asking him to stay, leaving him all alone once more
Eric opened his eyes, coming back to the present as a pang of guilt washed over him
Eric
*damnit he must have gotten a cold staying in the rain like that, why didn't I ask him to come home with me*
Eric
*he looked at the mirror and saw tears falling down his eyes and he quickly wiped them away*
Eric
Ah- Why am I crying god, I'm such an idiot
With that Eric walks out of the bathroom, gets ready and sits down to eat some food
Eric
Hmmmm now, I need to start working on how I can win over the male lead
Eric
Glasstrix, can you give me his details?
Glasstrix
Sureeeeeeee (◠‿◕)
Glasstrix

— Childhood Trauma
— Protective of loved ones
— Feels burdened by all the responsibilities that are on him, but he doesn't openly admit it
Eric
Aha~ He has weak points, I can exploit all that to make him love me~
Glasstrix
You need to win over his true trust, manipulations don't last for long Eric, you know that.
Eric
*sighs* yeah yeah smarty-pants, I don't care
Eric
*Eric looks down at the pudding he saved for dessert* Well, why don't we go and humor our beloved little CEO with something sweet?
Arthur was busy working on the new project approvals and signing important documents, but his mind was wandering somewhere else, he hadn't even slept the previous night
Arthur
*How on earth did that guy escape from bloody tenth floor? He should have been killed jumping from so high, he didn't even have a parachute with him*
Arthur
*frustrated* *I had him so close, I could have found out who wanted to kill me, I lost such a good chance*
Arthur
*rubs eyes as he's tired, takes his glasses off*
Arthur
*says loudly, banging his hands on the table* Damnit I almost had him there, now I won't be able to catch him!!!!!
Eric
*chuckles* Well, seeing you miss me so much, I must say I'm touched
Arthur turns around towards the window and finds Eric sitting there, his eyes widen in shock
Arthur
*takes a knife out from the desk, stands up* YOU---
Arthur
Do not move, I will not miss my aim this time
Eric
乁 ˘ o ˘ ㄏ Aishhh You really are impatient *puts hands in the air, with the bag of pudding in one hand and walks towards him* I mean no harm, I promise
Arthur
*as soon as Eric was in reachable distance, Arthur pins him down to the table* We'll see about that now, shall we?
