📖(✿˶˘ ³˘)~♡ MIMO'S POV (。❛ᴗ❛。)📖
That's even more embarrassing! He said that I didn't touch his ball but his dick. I'm feeling hot as I fan myself. "Mimo, Mimo. What to do?" I'm walking back and forth as I don't know what I should do with him. Finally, I pause and suddenly think I have already apologized to him. Why do I need to worry about him? I'll kill him later!
I look at the door and sigh, "Jaime Tejedor, I'm going to end you." I say that as I walk straight to the door and open it. I look to my right and check if the coast is clear. Finally, he is gone, so I walk outside entirely and go to the elevator. As I stroll, I hear my tummy make a sound, and I'm starving. I might need to buy something to eat.
A few minutes later, I arrive in front of the elevator, press the down button, and wait to check the indicator. It opens immediately, and no one is inside. I enter and push the ground floor button and observe the elevator door close. Then suddenly, someone stops it, and it's him again, Mr. Marble. Our eyes meet, and I gulp. I try not to make eye contact with him and look at myself in the elevator's mirror.
"Ehem." I hear him clear his throat and go inside. He attempts to press the ground button again and press the close button. I glare at him in the mirror, and he is smirking at me. I press my lips and face him. I calm myself as the elevators go down. Then suddenly, the elevator stops on the 2nd floor, and many employees are outside. They enter the elevator, and I notice that they push Mr. Marble close to me, and he is now facing me.
He got pushed again, and as a result, we were getting compressed at the very edge of the elevator. He is tall, and his chest is thoroughly pressed to my arms. I try not to move because he might think I'm taking advantage of him. I look above and catch him looking at me.
Our eyes met, and the time went prolonged. Then, finally, we are just staring at each other as the elevators go down. Why it's taking so long? I gulp as his face is almost close to mine. His nose tips almost touch mine, and I look below his nose and never notice that he has small lips, which is pretty coaxing. Then, again, the elevator stops, and someone enters. He got pushed, and unexpectedly our lips touched together, and both of our eyes widened.
It's my first. Mr. Mable's lips feel soft and glossy as it brushes mine. It's tastes like mint, like the smell of his breath. I suddenly feel my heart skip a beat as our lip brushes each other. The heat from my stomach arises to my chest as my heart beats, jumping lively as we kiss. Every passing second, we stay here in our position, and he is not removing his lips from mine.
We keep staring at each other until the elevator opens when it reaches the ground floor. People inside are stepping outside now, and it's getting crowd less as second passes by. Our lips are stuck together until the last person goes out.
I hesitated and didn't say any words. My chest is burning, and my face is hot. I push Mr. Marble's body lightly and then run outside as I cover my mouth. The heat from my body is not stopping to arise as I go outside the building. My heart keeps beating fast as it keeps repeating to my mind what happens inside the elevator. It's my first, and it's him! I hate him! He let me touch his thing and kissed him! In our first met! I better go home, and we might end up in a hotel if I stay longer here.
I feel almost sweat, and it's windy outside. As I step outside, a cold breeze touches my skin. I remember what my stepmom said, and it will rain today. Good thing that I have my umbrella with me. I open my purse and get the umbrella. I didn't open it yet because it was still windy and not yet raining.
I'm getting hungrier, and I need to look for something to eat before I go home. As I stroll outside, I suddenly glance at a fast-food chain in front of a bakery, and it's crowded. I'm curious about what's going on, so I approach the crowd. I stand on my tiptoes and look at what's going on. I suddenly smell something good. It smells like a chicken getting fried in oil. I look at the signboard, but I can't read what's written there. I tilt my head as I observe these Japanese words.
I used to take Nihonggo classes in high school, and my Japanese vocabulary is somewhat getting dull. I narrow my eyes as I lift my chin while reading them. "Ka-"
"It's Karaage." I stop standing on my toes and turn my head to look who says that, and it's Takeshi.
He smiles at me as he shows his right palm, "Hi, we meet again." I slightly bow my head and smile at him awkwardly.
"Are you hungry? I can treat you, that's is a Japanese street food that I love. It's made of thin slices of chicken, breaded and deep-fried." He pauses as he looks forward. He stands on his toe and checks the line. He looks back at me, "This is newly open stores, and a lot are buying."
"Yeah," I respond to him, then suddenly I feel my stomach hurt because I'm starving right now. I didn't eat breakfast or anything before going here.
I notice him wrinkle his nose as his brows furrow, and then he points his finger at me. "You look famish." He pauses as he puts down his hands and looks around.
"Honestly." I pause and hold my stomach, "I'm starving. I didn't eat anything else before coming here." I explain as I rub my belly then pout.
I hear him snap his finger and point his finger somewhere. " Do you want to eat somewhere else? I know a great place." His face brightens as he invites me. I agree to come because any minute from now, I will faint because of hunger. Takeshi shows me the way, and I follow him as we talk. We talked about writing and why did I become fascinated by it. I explain to him that my late mother loves Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.
A few minutes later, we arrived at the restaurant he recommended. It's not that fancy, and it's affordable. It's a Japanese restaurant. I notice him stop entering the restaurant when his phone suddenly rings. "Yeah, we are here now. What floor are you?" He asks on the phone. I think we are not alone. "Ok, we will be there." He hangs up and looks at me.
"Let's go, we have some company, and it's a coincidence that my friends are also here. Do you mind eating with us?" I don't know what to answer because I'm dying right now. I smile at him and shake my head.
"Great! Let's go!" He gestures his hands inviting me to come in, and we go in. We go inside the restaurant and straightly go to the second floor. I just follow him, and after we step our feet on the second floor. I see many people are already dining, and they are eating ramen and various Japanese foods. I notice Takeshi waves his hands, and I look at who is he waving. My eyes widen, and I look at them.
It's Marco,
Jericho,
and...
and...
Mr. Marbles...
Oh My...
It is our fourth encounter!

📖(✿˶˘ ³˘)~♡ MIMO'S POV (。❛ᴗ❛。)📖 I'm so tired! What kind of team building is this? It feels like my whole body is going to fall to pieces. On our first day at the camp, we trekked on the mountain until we reached the other side. Then, we trek back to the camp. My legs feel swollen right now, and I can't even lift my body. As of the moment, we are currently inside a cabin. Jazmine and I, together with two other ladies, are procrastinating on their beds. We were so tired and couldn't even get up from our bed. "What kind of day this is!" Jazmine complains while she massages her feet. "I agree. Only the guys enjoyed the trekking." Linda said that while getting up from her bed. Linda is our new friend she works at a different branch of La Fari. Linda has long curly hair, and her eyes are hazelnut colored. She has fair white skin and a height of 175 cm. She is taller than me and Jazmine, a true model indeed. "Agree. I can barely walk now." Sharmaine replies to Linda. Sharmaine is Lind
📖(✿˶˘ ³˘)~♡ JAIME'S POV (。❛ᴗ❛。)📖 I called her number. However, she has not been answering my call. She might be busy flirting with other guys there. I took a deep sigh and placed my phone frustratedly on the table. "This is how you are going to play, huh." I looked at my laptop, and I had an evil plan. First, I'll make her suffer. Second, I'll lay her down on my bed. I'm kidding. I decided that even her second manuscript was written perfectly. I'll reject it and see if she wouldn't beg me to let her pass. I immediately opened my email and notified her that I needed her manuscript by next week. "Let's see
📖(✿˶˘ ³˘)~♡ JAIME'S POV (。❛ᴗ❛。)📖 A month had passed, and my work was overloaded. I need to review a lot of newly accepted books before publishing. I didn't have much time to visit my mom. My sister kept updating me about our mom's condition for the past few days. Unlucky, it's getting worst. Her boyfriend tried to expedite this concern to the South Korean Neurologist if the surgery could be placed immediately. However, the date was unexpected. It's two months from now, and it is the peak month of the publishing company to release new books. Then suddenly, it came to my head to call Mimo to let her know that I would shorten her probation period. So I get my phone beside my computer, look for her contact number, and then call her. I tak
📖(✿˶˘ ³˘)~♡ MIMO'S POV (。❛ᴗ❛。)📖 Jean volunteers to drive me to the rendezvous where Jazmine and I meet. "Mimo, stay safe on the camp, ok?" Jean says that while he prepares his car. "Ok, and please take care of mom while I am not around." "No worries, Jason will take care of mom. It's also an excuse for me not to do house chores." "Jazmine might be bored waiting for me. Let's go." After saying that, I lift my purse, and Jean gets my bag pack. After an hour we arrived at our destination. It is in front of the main building we work at. Jean dropped me off and gave me some all
📖(✿˶˘ ³˘)~♡ MIMO'S POV (。❛ᴗ❛。)📖 A month has passed, and I faced many difficulties when writing the second manuscript for submission. The reason was that I have a lot of photoshoots ongoing right now. In addition, many branded companies contacted me on I*******m to be their brand ambassador, which I happily accepted. Promoting beauty products, female wear, and shoes was the one I was promoting. Jazmine was so happy with my achievement and wanted to change my contract to an exclusive model in La Fari. However, I wasn't sure enough to sign an exclusive contract with them because I am still a signed author at the story and life publishing.
📖(✿˶˘ ³˘)~♡ JAIME'S POV (。❛ᴗ❛。)📖 Did I make her feel bad when I rejected her first manuscript? I need to think of a way for him to lift her spirit. I knew I was a bit harsh to her, but it's for her to improve. Then suddenly, it came to my mind that I would pass her work for publishing, and I'll prepare the contract signing tomorrow for her so that the manuscripts she created will not come to waste. I called her name, and she gazed at me. I fixed my suit and smiled, "Congratulation, as well. I forgot to tell you that your first manuscript will be part of our new joiner collection." Mimo looked confused about what I said, "I don't unders
