This morning our company get a suddenly meeting. The one who arranged it none other than the President, my father. When I asked about the meeting, he just told me to come. I sighed when I arrived at the conference room. After everyone came, I waited for my father to appear but he was not the one who entered the room. It's Alexis. I gave her a confused look, and only got a smile in return.
"Hello, good morning. My name is Alexis Dalton. The president cannot come and let me be the one to replace him. Because I am the reason this meeting is being held. The project this company is preparing, our company agrees to join you. So that's mean, I will stay in here as well to make this project be successful"
"!!!!"
"I will work in the same room as your Director, Chelsea Flint. So you can say that I am your second Director "
"!!!!"
"But don't worry. This is only temporary. After the launch event, I will return to my world again. So, before we close this meeting, there are two things you should know. First, if is not really important matter, just send a voice message to my phone in my office. Don't worry, I will hear it later. Second, don't try to call me on Sunday, because that day is a day without work for me. That's all. Is anyone want to ask me anything?"
Silent filled the room. Everyone shook their heads. Every time she spoke, it felt like water was boiling in my heart. We met last night, but she never mentioned any of this to me. When everyone leaves, it's just the two of us in the room. Before I walked to the door, she blocked me.
"Move"
"Ouch. Even though we had a pleasant conversation that night, you turned out to be a cool woman in the morning."
"It's because we talked last night. But you never told me anything. And here I thought you were just a woman working in a Cafe "
"I just heard about it after driving you home last night. I don't have your phone number so I can tell you about that. And it's not that I lied about working at the cafe. I work there when I want to "
"You never said you knew my father !!"
"You never asked"
"..."
"And it happened again. Your cute when you are sulking "
"What?!?"
"Come on, Chelsea. I am sorry. Forgive me??"
"…I will forgive you if you are the one who paid for our welcome party tonight"
"This welcoming party is for me. But I'm the one who will pay for it? Doesn't that sound like it's unfair to me ?? "
"Your life is your choice"
With my fingers I moved her body to the left and walked out of the room. I can feel her following me from behind. I don't think it's bad to have a few friends like her with me.
@Alexis POV
After I paid for everyone's dinner, I decided to take a break and let everyone enjoy their conversation. Before I left, I saw Chelsea sitting with three other women, whom I trusted her housemate from the story she told me last night. Outside the restaurant I saw two street singers who were singing. With a smile I walk closer to them and ask them if I can join with them.
@Chelsea POV
I looked around for Alexis, but I couldn't find her anywhere. I saw her walk up to the cashier, I thought she wanted to paid for everything, but it's been a while and she still hasn't come back. I excused myself to my friends and tried to find her. When I was on the first floor, I heard a loud voice from outside. I asked the employee there what happened and he said that some buskers were singing. I decided to look a little bit but was very surprised to see Alexis being the one singing and playing the guitar. Somehow, but I always felt that wherever I stood, Alexis could be the first to know where I was. Our eyes met, and a cute smile painted on her face.
"This is my special song for someone here. I won't tell you who are they. The only thing I will say is this song which I will sing later, really describes them. My next song, "What Makes You Beautiful" "
You're insecure, don't know what for
You're turning heads when you walk through the do-o-or
Don't need make-up to cover up
Being the way that you are is enou-ou-ough
Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else, but you, ooh
Baby, you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground, it ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh-oh
You don't know you're beautiful
if only you saw what I can see
You'll understand why I want you so desperately
Right now I'm lookin' at you, and I can't believe
You don't know, oh-oh
You don't know you're beautiful, oh-oh
That's what makes you beautiful
When she sang in full force she looked at me. I laughed when I saw her jump left and right. I feel even more hot when I hear the lyrics of the song. I couldn't help it and decided to look away.
So c-come on, you got it wrong
To prove I'm right, I put it in a song
I don't know why you're being shy
And turn away when I look into your eye-eye-eyes
"!!!!"

"I think it will close my performance tonight. See you next time "
She greeted the other two singers before walking away. When she approached me, I gave her a bottle of my drink. She accepted it happily.
"Thank you"
"This welcoming party is for you. But, here you are. Singing with some buskers "
"Hehe .. sorry .. I couldn't help it when I saw them. It's been a long time since I played outside like this. So, what do you think about my appearance?"
"You don't sensitize my ears. So I thought it wasn't bad "
"Sensitize? Do you think I sound like the horn of a big truck?"
"Yes" with a smile I walked back into the restaurant
"I hate you"
"I hate you more"
Even when we walked, our fighting didn't end there. I could feel all eyes on us, but for the first time I didn't care because I was enjoying this moment with her.
