While I was engrossed in playing on my phone, a message from Cass pop-up on my notification. I clicked it to view what was her reply. I did not expect that she is already in the office at this moment. So I did not bother composing a response to her, instead put down my phone and started the car. I drove away from my villa, while driving my car my mind was still on the message that I just read. Is she really that early? Hmm, or might be responded to me like that in order to get back at me. I smile at that thought. Were like cats and dogs in that case. When I was about to pass by in her apartment, I saw someone sitting on the bench near the post of a street lamp. I slow down my car when I got a clear view of that person it was Cass, she just really want to get back at me. I stop my car in front of her then I called her out," Hey!

While driving towards her apartment, I don't know what to say so I turn on the stereo on my car. The music played was a song title for the first time. I never thought before that someday I would listen to music and keep my attention on every meaning of the lyrics. I look at her from the side of my eyes while my eyes still fix on the road. I see her looking outside the window not knowing what she think. She was just calm, few minutes later she leans her head on the back of the chair while closing her eyes.

I-I am not fit with you...I mean your status and mine are not suited for each other," I said looking at him while I'm speaking he also look at me in my eyes. Which gives a shiver down my spine.

From afar I can see she is standing near the roadside. I smile to myself I am right in time. I pull over right in front of her. " Goodmorning, Hop in let's go together in the office," I said looking at her while smiling which makes my dimple visible to her. Damn, she smiled back to me, it's so fascinating to look at.

Josh POV I was so amused that I almost forgot that I was talking to her on the other line. Today is her day off so I called her thinking she was already up, but I didn't expect that it was almost ten o'clock in the morning that she is still sleeping. I was just teasing her when I told her that she would go out of her bed to open the door for me, but she did not let me finish speaking when she hung up the phone. I thought she was that sleepy so I did not call her again just to let her sleep a little longer.

It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon when I was done digging those files, I lean my back on my chair to relax the stiff that I feel from my back. I saw my phone from the side and check if there's a message that I did not hear because of being too focused on my work. I am not mistaken I have a message and it was from Cass. When I open it, she was asking if I have any allergies to food. I felt a warmth reading her message. I decided to call her, when the call gets through the line I was answered by a hoarse voice that seems like just woken up from sleep. I ask her if I have disturbed her but she said it's okay. Maybe she was really sleepy that's why she decided to be absent from work today. I told her that I have an allergy to peanuts and that's all. We did not speak that long for I have a meeting to attend so I end up the call and promise to come in her place after work.

The days had passed as quickly as the blinking of our eyes, and every day working and talking to Josh makes us even closer to each other, like best friends sharing some life experiences, giving each other advice, sometimes talking and laughing to each other.
