The knock on the door was heard, and he went ahead to say, "Come in,"
The girl entered, dressed in her smart office wear before she walk in and placed the document onto the table. "Here is the document you want," she said, as she stand back slightly. The guy took over the document before he flipped it through, and nodded his head. "Alright, there's nothing much left, you can leave now,"
The girl just slightly moved her head down, before she walked out of the office.

"Any drinks for you madam?" the waiter asked. The girl scanned through the menu, before she passed back the menu to the waiter. "I'll just get a green tea," she said as she looked at the waiter and smiled. "Sure," the waiter walked away, and came back soon with the drink.
"Sorry for the cold attitude in the office, couldn't treat you well because I think all the colleagues were practically staring,"
"It's okay. I understand, Keito-kun," the girl smiled, before she placed her hair behind her ear.
Keito placed his hand onto her hand that was on the table, and smiled. "You're always my lovely girl alright,"
The girl, just blushed.

"Riko! Here!" he shouted as he walked over to where the girl was standing. "Keito!" she smiled, and waved her hand. "Sorry for the long wait, was settling some finance matters," he said.
"Keito! Your company just send me a message to start work on Monday!"
"Really!?" Keito's face litted up at the thought of Riko working at his company. "I'm happy for you!"
"Thanks!" Riko smiled and suggested to go off. Keito's face was flushing red, as he looked down to the hand that was dangling just beside his. At some point of time, his hand had accidentally touched her hand, and he jerked up. But the girl made no reaction and continued walking. Just then, many cars started to pass by the road, and Riko wasn't really looking.
"RIKO! Careful!" he shouted, before he hold onto her hand and dragged her back.
Riko started to pant, and Keito just gripped onto her hand tightly. "Th.. Thanks," Riko whispered. Worried for the girl, Keito helped her towards the neares cafeteria to let her rest.
"You alright?" Keito asked. Riko just nodded her head, before she looked up. "Sorry, Keito. I made you worried,"
"It's okay. YOu scared the hell out of me just now,"
Riko kept quiet for the next few minutes, still stunned by the scenario just now.
After resting at the cafeteria, and as it was getting late, Keito decided to send Riko home for the day. They were nearing Riko's house downstairs when Keito have mustered his courage and grabbed her hand. "Kei... Keito?" she stuttered, as she looked at Keito.
"You know, the accident just now made me realize how important you are to me,"
Riko got stunned and just continued looking at Keito.
"I... You... You should get together with me. I'll protect you, I'll love you Riko," Keito said, his head lowered, yet the grip on her hand was tight. Riko's mouth moved up before she walked slightly towards Keito, and leaning her head against his shoulder. "I was thinking about you when I was crossing the road you know,"
"I was thinking if you'er going to hold my hand... going to caress my hair, going to..." before Riko could continued, Keito have embraced her into him.
"For now, just stay in my chest,"
Riko smiled, before placing her hands behind his back.
