Seriously?

I thought a lot about yesterday's incident. All night before dozing off, I was thinking about her reaction. How would she react? Will she make an apology? Or will she blush and try avoiding me?(that's not possibly possible though)

That's not the only thing I thought. Another thought was concern. I was a bit worried. A guy could have done anything to her. I mean, literally anything. How could a young girl not be concerned about this?! This is dangerous. I accept the fact, if not clarified, she cannot be distinguished as a girl.

But still, why is she not scared? I knew it very well that she is a girl. What if I did something? Maybe, not consciously, then unconsciously? What if something like that happened? I'm just regretting on what I said just now. I'll just ask her, right? I'm not into counselling or something. She has a psychologist friend for that purpose.

I wouldn't say, I did not expect that she would get drunk. I had thought so many outcomes with reference to some good manga I've read. But that sounded soooooooo unreal. I mean, logically, she's a girl after all. I expected that she would say no to the bar thing. But she said yes. So I thought, she must be either good with alcohol, or she must be having good control over herself. Today's talk is going to be super awkward. Here we go....

"Good morning, sir. We have a meeting with the Finance department staff after lunch, and till then, please take a look at the record you asked me to prepare."

"Okay."

So, she doesn't care. Why should I bother? I mean, I wouldn't always play the concerned party, I'll just keep myself safe from any blames or anything.

Now, the records, so neat. Whenever I'm angry at anyone, their good work impresses me and it just melts my mind immediately. The work of the Finance department has been too good this month. Its time for a bonus, maybe? I'm not biased, I'm sure of that at least. If I was biased, I would give bonus to the managing department staff, Jasmine is there, you know?

Her soft long hair and long big eyelashes. Her flushed cheeks and pale skin like moonlight. She keeps her looks perfect at nearly all times. I've always seen her dressed neatly, beautifully. I like her too much. Her voice seems music to the ears....

"Mr. Lu! Mr.Lu! are you listening!? Are you done with the records?!?"

And I suddenly hear a concrete drilling my dreamland, the noise of a construction site, the man with a yellow helmet, suddenly replaced Jasmine and makes that never ending construction sound.

"What is it?"

"I was asking if...."

"Its good. You go have lunch now."

"Well .... sir... um.... could I have a minute?" She asks with a light blush under her eyes. Its far less that when she was drunk.

"Sure"

"Sir, yesterday..."

" Nothing happened!"

"I know that! I just wanted to apologize for that. I'll never let that happen again."

" I was a bit worried too. Nothing happened, I assure that. But what if something did happen? Who would be held responsible?"

"......"

Did I scare her? I'm much older than her. It must sound bad. She is young after all, a youth who wants to enjoy live to the fullest. A daughter who wants to experience everything before getting married off to an unknown?

I'm thinking too much again. Being an Otaku its hard. She is a bit scared though.

"You were apologizing, right?"

"Yes... Sir.."

"Just don't do that again, and that's all I guess.."

"Thank you sir"

She is not afraid of anything. Just why? Looking like a guy doesn't make you a guy. She may have apologized, but she was scared just because of the way I was speaking. It was write all over her face,

But she's a girl. She must accept it. I know what she felt. She just thought that it was inconvenient for me, why does she not worry about herself?

If she is not dating that doctor, then just how could she trust him so much? Fine, they may be close, but why me? There's something I wanna talk about. I'll just text my sister.

RING~RING~

Oh, she's calling me. I'm not busy anyways.

"Hey.."

"Don't confuse it with love bro, you just can't accept that someone is not as much of a coward as you."

"I'm not a coward, okay? She literally fainted when she came out to have a drink with me."

"No comments. Why did you ask her out?"

"Why do you think I asked her out?Isn't it possible that it was her?"

"Because I'm your sis. I know, you hate girls who take the initiative. You think they're trying to lust you."

"Oh fine! I take that. What should I do now?"

"Why do you even care!? I know you asked her out because you wanted to dig out her love life and mind other people's business."

"But I do care!"

"I'm hanging up. I'm busier than you think. Why don't you have a girlfriend, man? Then you will stop having these !Young-maiden! feelings."
