A few weeks have passed and projects kept on entering the firm. Some of the projects were actually taken and managed by Win personally as to which he gladly accepted since some of his past projects are already done and finished.

The four of them are now currently inside their own office and the silence between them grows as they are all busy on their assigned project tasks— some are designing the structural integrity of the buildings they are going to construct, and some are drafting plans.

"We're going to a project site later, after an hour." Pie breaks the silence and points her finger to Pluem beside her while looking at Win with which the other immediately beams a smile and nods in response.

"Alright. Are you done with your draft plans?" Win snickered as he stood up and went to Pie's office table to check the papers she's currently working on.

"Almost. Just some details will be added further when I checked the architectural plans." She shrugged while plopping her back on the chair. She then heaves a sigh and fetches her phone inside her pocket. "What about you Adrian? You also have site visits later right?"

"Yeah, and I'll be going in a few minutes from now. I just have to send some files to out architectural firm for some verification." Adrian remarked while busily looking at his laptop.

"You're leaving me here alone." Win huffs in annoyance which made the three glare at him tauntingly. "Just go now!" He pouts as they all broke into laughter. Win quickly strides himself back to his chair and later on focuses to the remaining things he needs to do for today. He glances at his wristwatch and it says it's already 15 minutes past 3 in the afternoon.

"See you later Win!" After a couple of minutes, Adrian exclaimed as he stands up and grabs the files lying on his table.

"We'll just go with him Win." Pluem added as Pie also stood up and reaches her tubular case as she puts her drafts inside.

"Fine." Win breathily remarks as he then heaves a sigh and watched the three leave the office. He quickly droops himself on his table and once again draws out a deep breath. The creeping exhaustion immediately catches him up and with which he shuts his eyes for a moment.

The silence of the room brought relief and comfort to Win as he immediately falls into a sound sleep. His body then quickly twitches as soon as a muffled sound coming from the door is heard. Win slowly lifts up his head and opens his eyes as he is soon greeted by the sight of Bright worriedly looking at him in front.


"Hey... are you okay? Are you tired?" Bright softly remarks as he brushes his fingers on the other's face. Win pouts at his statement and plops himself on his chair. He then takes a deep breath and beams a smile towards the other who is now sitting on the chair in front of Win's office table.

"I'm fine. I was just busy arranging some documents awhile ago." He weakly retorts as he darts his eyes towards the other. "Why are you here? You want to go somewhere? I can drive for you Bright if—"

"I'm just here to check up on you baby." Bright hisses which made the other immediately flinch. Heat quickly rose into his face as he bites his lip, making Bright let out a soft chuckle from the other's expression.

"Y-you should've told me that you're coming here." Win whispers but quickly grabs Bright's hand resting on his table and plays on his fingers. Bright smiles with the gesture as he pulls Win's hands and kisses the back of them.

"Do you want to go to Sir Mike's house? Arrangement of the sets of furniture is done. It's almost furnished; you wanna see it with me?" Bright remarks which made Win look at him in daze as excitement grows inside his chest. He badly wants to see it, now that it's finished. The thought that Bright was the one who was in charge of the interior makes him feel proud towards the other.
