Chapter 3 - Office and Merlin

499 Words
We laughed and finish out breakfast. He acts as nothing has ever happened yesterday night. I can't say it is what I wanted rather than him keeping distance or shut me off or I want him to remember. For now, we are good. If we talk about it maybe it could get awkward so I refuse to talk about it unless he starts it. He dropped me at the office and waved bye and he is going out of the city today, he can't pick me up from the office to home. So he left his car in my office parking and convinced me he is good to take a cab to his office. "Drive safe, don't drink, and get wasted. I won't be here to babysit you" he half teased half concerned. I nodded and waved him bye as I slipped to the office. Merlin my acquaintance who goes in the same department as I was rolling her eyes because I still stay with my brother and I'm not independent bla bla. I stay with my brother for two reasons. One, I can stay with him, I feel safe with him rather than staying alone in the apartment and missing him. Two, we already have a mortgage we have to pay for our house in my hometown, so I will consider all the cost-cutting. I told the second reason to her still she says I have to make my life on my own not to depend on him. I can't blame her for a short period of working here she is the only one I have well acquainted. There is not much work today as I have already completed my building designs and plan and sent to the leads. I have to correct or do the changes if they asked. I love my job, I have always wanted to be an Architect and now I'm. I have good pay too. As I sit in my cabin and arranged the documents and Advanced 3d architecture book that I took from the office library. After I have arranged everything I started opening emails to see nothing new here, I have resolved some of the queries and made some changes as they asked. After I ate lunch with my teammates I resumed my work and read the book while I can in between. I couldn't notice the time as it already 4 PM, and I can leave, I asked Merlin to come to my apartment as Jack is not due home for two days. She said she has to go somewhere she will finish that and come to my apartment at 8 PM with red wine and asking me to choose a good film and order a pizza. We waved each other and I started the car and drove to the grocery shop to buy the groceries and I was searching for a movie on Netflix's my phone beeped with a message. It's from Jack. "I boarded London flight, don't forget to eat, have fun" "I'll and you too".
