Arin sits in her car, frantically scrolling through her phone for a certain number. Cold sweat runs through face as her vision become increasingly blurry
Arin
Arin
(How.....this was never supposed to happen! What is Wrex even thinking?!)
Arin
Arin
*calls Wrex* (Just pick up already) *taps her fingers on the car handle*
The call doesn't reach Wrex multiple times
Arin
Arin
(Is he purposefully ignoring me!? We have got a real situation here and he is playing these games now?!)
Arin
Arin
*talks to her driver* The destination's changed, Mister. Take me to the City Center Hospital
Driver: Ok
Arin
Arin
(Giving such short replies to me? Nah, I don't have any time to waste my thoughts on him)
Emris's house

Emris
Emris
*yawn* It's 8am already
Emris
Emris
I would've finished an hour at work by now.....if I was working
Emris
Emris
*gets dressed up*
Emris
Emris
I was hardly getting by the last few months
Emris
Emris
And now I need to go job-hunting again. *sighs*
Emris
Emris
It's like life can never give me a break....well at least it's better than whatever I faced yesterday
Emris
Emris
*makes instant noodles* I hope I got paid for my work yesterday.....even if I shouted and humiliated her in front of her employee, she won't be immature enough to not pay me, right?
Reize
Reize
*calls Emris*
Emris
Emris
*picks up the call and puts up a fake corporate tone* Hello, how may I help you?
Reize
Reize
It's me
Emris
Emris
*checks the number* Ahhh...! (I should've saved her number and blocked her yesterday)
Emris
Emris
Director you haven't paid me my work's worth yet, I want you to remember that before talking further
Emris
Emris
*hardens his voice*
Reize
Reize
.....how long are you going to pretend to not know me?
Reize
Reize
(Can't say I am disappointed even)
Reize
Reize
(For the only one I am disappointed on is me)
Emris
Emris
If it's not related to work, I am cutting the call. Please wire me the money as soon as possible
Reize
Reize
Wait! Look down from your window
Emris
Emris
Eh? *peeks through his window*
NovelToon
Emris
Emris
What's the meaning of this?!
Emris
Emris
You stalked me yesterday!? *asks angrily*
Reize
Reize
(So that's how low I look to you?)
Reize
Reize
*gives a forced smile* You post your works all over Linsta for thousands of people to know and the moment I do it's suddenly a crime?
Reize
Reize
If you were going to leak all your personal data anyway, you should've shown your face online too....it would have made the search way easier for me
Emris
Emris
(What search is she talking about?)
Emris
Emris
*smirks* I was worried that if I posted my looks online, my Linsta will be flooded with DMs asking for dates
Reize
Reize
*taken aback* (What's with this confidence? I didn't want to admit but ever since I met him again yesterday, he is showing an attitude I would have never expected from Emris 5 years back)
Reize
Reize
So you finally accepted your good looks now, huh?! The confidence, the cockiness....time changed you and aged you like fine wine
Reize
Reize
*shouts back at the window* The best part? It's all for me and just me. You didn't act this way on the phone or with Dina after all
Reize
Reize
I am loving this new shade of yours *smiles suggestively*
Emris
Emris
*blushes from the word "love"* Shameless as always....
Emris
Emris
Hmph! You think I would hesitate to call the police on you?
Reize
Reize
What are they going to do? Fine me?
Reize
Reize
Fines are punishment for the poor, it's fine if I do it *shines her card*
Emris
Emris
(I knew she was crazy rich but this is just frustrating!)
Reize
Reize
I am not asking more from you, just come down and I will pay you for yesterday
Emris
Emris
Why will the Director herself come over to "pay" her worker?
Reize
Reize
Emris, I have a special gift for you
Reize
Reize
*smiles at his eyes*
NovelToon
Emris
Emris
(I hate her smile, I hate the way she looks at me!)
Emris
Emris
(But the thing I hate the most is how much control that smile still got on me)
