Chapter 5

"What's that?" Mr. Woods ask while staring at me confusely.

"Uh, please don't be mad, I brought coffee. I know you told me that we should not disturb you. This will be so quick." I uttered as I walk near his table and put the coffee there.

After dropping the coffee shake I immediately turned my back and continue towards the door so tht he won't say anything anymore about what I did.

"What's this, Miss Zoela?" He ask when I am about to open the door already.

My heart is beating so fast as I slowly faced him.

"Uhm that's a coffee shake, Sir." I answered hesitantly.

"I told you not to disturb me. Did you buy this?" He ask calmly and I can't believe it, it thought he will be mad.

"I personally made that, Sir." I answered, still nervous.

I blink twice as I watched him tried to drink it. He started drinking a lot from it as he slowly nodded.

"This is cafe mocha, this is my favorite coffee. How did you make it?" He ask while staring at the coffee bottle I used.

"Uh, I learned that before when I worked in a coffee shop, Sir." I answered while smiling nervously.

"Okay, you should make like this next time. You can go now." He said as he drink the coffee again.

I nodded and slowly turned my back from him. I feel like I am floating. He didn't get mad. He accepted the coffee and complemented that it tastes good.

I smiled before leaving his office.

I go back to my table outside and decided to continue what I am doing already. But instead of starting at my work I saw Miss Bea there waiting for me.

I go back to my table outside and decided to continue what I am doing already. But instead of starting at my work I saw Miss Bea there waiting for me.

"Is Mr. Woods working?" She ask and I immediately nodded.

"Then why are you there earlier?She ask confusely.

''Ah, I just brought a coffee for him. I made a coffee for myself and it was rude if I won't bring for him too. By the way do you want some? I can make another for you." I smiled but her brows is Stu furrowing and seems like so confused.

"No, it's just why did he accept the coffee? I mean he doesn't like snacks or something whenever he is working. He said it will just going to bother him." Miss Bea explained and I can't help but to furrow my brows too.

"I am also too nervous earlit. I am happy that he accepted it." I uttered.

"Do you want me to make coffee for you too, Miss?" I ask again but she only shake her head.

I nodded about her response and immediately go back in my table.

We all continued working. I need to remind Mr. Woods about his dinner Meeting with an investors later. It's Mr. Takoshi. I've read that it is a Japanese investor. Base on the file, it is an important meeting.

I can also see how big the savings inside the bank. It is really well managed.

When the clock turned to six, I tried peeking inside Mr. Woods office if he is already done. I slowly entered the room and just like the usual I can already smell Mr. Woods perfume inside.

My brows furrowed when I noticed that he is not working already. He is leaning in the table, he is asleep.

I blink twice while watching me. I bet he is so tired working for how many hours.

I slowly walk near his table and check the time. We need to be there in the meeting at six thirty and don't need to be late.

I bite my lip when I decided to slowly tap his back so that he will wake up.

I bite my lip when I decided to slowly tap his back so that he will wake up.

"Sir, sir. Wake up." I whispered but he is still not moving.

I shake his shoulder a little bit and whisper something again.

"Sir," I whispered again as he also slowly lifted his gaze to me.

His eyes are so tired and looks really sleepy.

His brows furrowed immediately when he saw me standing there and waiting for him to wake up.

"You have a dinner meeting with an important investors, Sir. We should not be late." I explained but it seems like he is still wanting to have some sleep.

Is this really and important meeting than his sleep?

I heaved a sigh.

"Yeah, sorry. I didn't notice that I slept while working." He uttered as he brush his hair using his finger.

I am staring at him and watching him as he also check his watch.

He looks so serious while checking the time.

"Damn,"

I heard him cursing as he slowly stood up.

"I think we need to go already. Just call the driver now." He commanded and immediately turned my back from him.

I grab the telephone outside and remind the drivers and body guards. After a few seconds I also go back to Mr. Woods office and called him.

"Everything is ready now, Sir." I said as he also nodded.

The body guards are already here. Just like earlier they guided Mr. Woods going out from the building.

I smiled at the other workers while they are bowing their head when they saw Mr. Woods. We continued in the SUV and just also like earlier I am sitting in the front seat while Mr. Woods is silently sitting in the back.

He seems so stressed. I really don't wanted to be rich like him. I don't want to be famous and be as well known as him. People will surely ask too much from you. People will set you as the standards and if you fail they will immediately cancel you.

I bet business man around him looking him as one of the best business man in the country. Ever since before I've been hearing a lot of things about the company. In television I usually heard about UZ bank and now that I am also working here inside I can't help but to think how hard to achieve that kind of Fame. You need to sacrifice your health and mind l, thinking all the ways to improve, to reach the success.

I glance at Mr. Woods in the rear view mirror staring in the window.

"Do you like the coffee I made earlier, Sir?" I ask so that he will stop thinking about his work for a while. "But it seems like it did not make you stay awake. I shouldn't make one next time." I chuckled. I waited for a few seconds and I didn't receive any response from him.

I awkwardly glance at the driver who is also glancing at me.

"Hays people are so stressed these days, I hope they will get some rest. Just like you, Sir. You should also rest and being stressed is making you so grumpy." I uttered but he immediately cut me off using his glare in the rear view mirror.

I bite my lip to stop myself from talking.

"Shhh." The driver said as he glance at me.

"What do you think is the best drink to drink so that I can avoid sleeping while working?"

I blink twice about his question after I decided to stay quiet.

"Uh-uhm. I thought coffee is the best but I will research something else, Sir." I answered hesitantly.

"Well, I'll stay for the coffee." He uttered and I don't know if I will be happy or scared about it.

I glance at the driver and he looks stunned while also glancing at me. He should focus at driving.

After a few minutes of waiting, the SUV stop in a fancy restaurant. Mr. Woods body guards from the other cars immediately followed us. They are so fast and organized.

A crew immediately recognized Mr. Woods and guided him inside a VIP room.

The guards stayed outside, standing and seems very attentive in the surroundings. Of course a business man like Mr. Woods should be protected like this. He have a lot of money and just like in the television kidnappers usually kidnapped rich people and ask for ransom. That is probably super scary. I laugh about the thought and decided to also stay outside with the body guards but Mr. Woods commanded me to follow him inside.

I immediately nodded and walk with him.

The restaurant is just too amazing in my eyes to handle. In just one look you can already tell that this is a fancy place for rich and expensive people. I wonder if I can afford their water here, for sure even their tissue costs thousands here.

I watched the VIP room and there's a man sitting in a table. His eyes immediately darted towards Mr. Woods. He smiled.

I scanned the whole room and it was filled with crystal lights around that made it more expensive. The aquarium behind is just too realizing to watch. There are only one table inside and also three body guards. They probably also watching Mr. Takoshi. Hay, rich people things.

It was a long table. There are already foods served there and you can really tell that this costs too much.

"Good Evening Mr. Takoshi." Mr. Woods said as hey made a shake hand.

Mr. Takoshi also give his hand to me for a shake hand as well. I smiled to him. I think he is already on his 60's. He is kind of scary but I think old men usually really looks like that.

I waited for them behind and just standing there. I keep giving some paper to them that Mr. Woods asked me to bring for the meeting. He also shows it to Mr. Takoshi and it looks like the old man is pleased about it.

"I will send you some presentation next week, Sir. My employees will immediately work on it." Mr. Woods uttered while the old man is just nodding to him.

"Well that's what I like Mr. Woods. I heard from your cousin that you are having a hard time handling the business but it seems like I am seeing the opposite thing." Mr. Takoshi chuckled but I just saw Mr. Woods clinched his jaw before trying to smile at him.

"I am carrying the business so well, Mr. Takoshi. I am just following my Father's step. His bloods runs on mine and of course we are sharing the same passion in the business." Mr. Woods answered as he also drink the wine in front of him.

"Well, I can see that you are a smart business man, Rozieden. I hope this will end really well." The old man uttered as they forbid a goodbye to each other.

They made a shake hand again and finally they finished their discussion already.

I think it ended well. Both of them exited the room while still having a conversation.

Mr. Takoshi left and we immediately go back in the SUV.

"Did the meeting went well, Sir?" I ask at Mr. Woods because it seems like he is in the good mood.

The driver glance at me again but I just ignored him.

"Yeah, kind of." He answered that made my brows furrowed.

"Why? I think it went well. Mr. Takoshi is also scary. I think you two have the same vibes." I said before letting a low chuckle.

"Tss, he is not that scary at all." Mr. Woods saud and I can't help but to smile. He is really in a good mood.

"But you are." I uttered while chuckling.

"What?" He ask in disbelief and I think he really needs to change that part of him. Well, his choice.

"Well, honestly, you need to lessen the heavy atmosphere that is covering your personality, Sir. It is making you so intimidating. People might find you scary." I explained and even if that is risky he needs to find it out since he is in a good mood.

"Ma'am, you really need to shut your mouth already." The driver whispered at me while looking so scared.

"Do you find me scary too?" Mr. Woods ask while looking at me in the rear view mirror.

I stared at him and he looks so serious. Well, I don't think so. I am scared at him because that is what I often hear from the others. I always watch his reaction and those humors burried something in my mind but I don't think he is. There is just something about him that he failed to show to others.

"You are, but I am not scared at all. You are just a poem that people failed to understand."
