∆8. First Meeting
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
O-oww----
？？？
Oh Dear!! Are you alright???
Alpha looks up, hearing the most delightful voice he ever had, wanting to find out who it belonged to
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*softly* You alright? Did you get hurt?
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
*too stunned to speak* ah--- I- n-no I- I am---
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*worried* *panicking inside* *Don't tell me he's hurt, Oh no no no what do I do, what do I do!!????*
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*on the outside* Are you Alright?? Can you get up? *trying to smile*
On one hand, Rithika was panicking internally but looked calm on the outside, and on the other, Alpha was lost staring at her and her voice was going over and over again inside his head
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
*realising he's been staring at her for too long, snaps out* Oh- I'm alright. Haha I'm alright miss, don't worry. *gets up and dusts himself off*
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
*looks down, sees the papers scattered* Ah I'll help you gather them, so sorry I wasn't watching where I was going *about to get down*
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*holds his arm* You don't need to do that, I'll call someone to pic------ *pauses midway, realizes that Alpha doesn't know that she is the CEO of Avian, coughs awkwardly* ahem-- y-yeah y-you don't need to, i- I'll pick it up *bends down and gathers the papers*
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
*shocked* M-Miss!!! You don't need to--- it was my fault--- *bends down to grab some papers*
As they both apologize over and over again, asking each other not to bother, Alpha tries to grab a paper below Rithika's hand, but accidentally touches her hand
—·Welcome to Rithika's Delulu Land·—
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*as Alpha's hand brushes against her hand, her mind goes to her delulu land and here's how the scenario played out in her head*
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
The minute I touched your hand I knew it needed to be adorned by a ring. *kisses* Let me take this chance and ask you the question I've always wanted to ask you, beautiful maiden. Will you marry------
In reality, Alpha snatches his hand away, dragging Rithika from her Delulu Land
—·Exit from Rithika's Delulu Land·—
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
S-sorry m-miss I- i didn't mean to--- *stammering and blushing furiously, looking away*
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*internally* ಥ‿ಥ *damn my brain really needs to calm down, I was almost about scream Yes I will*
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*coughs and smiles, trying to go back her calm self* Haha It's alright *damn he's so cute when he's shy*
They both get up and smile awkwardly, as silence hangs around the air.
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
*scratches head* W-well T-that was that haha I- *points towards the seminar hall* I- i better get going-- The session will start soon again so---
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*seeing him turn away, her eyes widen, and she grabs his hand* NO!!!!!
Alpha turns around to look at Rithika, confused as to why she was holding onto him so tight
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
Is something the matter??
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*trying to think of an excuse* W-well i-it w-was
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*ahem W-well the---- the session was postponed!!!!! Did you not know??? T-the speaker was delayed s-so t-they had to postpone it
Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩
*eyebrows furrowing* Really??? But I didn't get any mail regarding that... Are you sure??
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
Uh... Yeah!!! 100%!!! I overheard them talking about it on the way!!! They should email you anytime soon!
As Alpha checked his phone to see if he got an email, Rithika turns around frantically searching for Regulus. She knew that he'd be watching her as he never leaves her unprotected. After searching frantically, she found him looking at them from a first floor room.
Rithika ⟨Rialta Flores⟩
*silently mouths to him* CANCEL. THE. SESSION. IN. THE. SEMINAR. HALL.
Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩
*looking down at them and frowns slightly. He got her message as he knew lip-reading* Oh Come on
Regulus ⟨Regulus Navarro⟩
*shakes head* You really will make our company's image drop for your little lover boy, won't you?
