The next day, I woke up so early. I needed to resume work today. That's the only thing that could keep me sane. Staying indoors would only make things worse for me. I'd missed the office anyway.
I got dressed, and surprisingly, Nicholas was waiting for me. When he saw me, he said, "I was waiting for you."
"Good morning," I greeted.
I bid Ms. Maya goodbye and left immediately with Nicholas. He was being nicer than expected. He opened the car door for me to get in.
I didn't want to ask too many questions, so I got inside, and he went to the other side to get in too.
He let out a sigh and asked, "Have you thought about what I told you?"
I stared at him, confused. "What's that?"
"Will you be my girlfriend?" he asked again.
I stared at him blankly. "Are you sure you didn't wake up on the wrong side of the bed? What is this about?"
