Chapter 7 Because I Want You

Alicy Swan, I want to get to know you further, and further!"

Of course Alicy heard that when they looked at each other and were still in the same position, especially since the look of confidence on Varenzel's face was so created.

However, Alicy didn't respond anything other than frowning in disbelief, Alicy even pulled her body back to reduce the distance between her and Varenzel.

Again, Varenzel caught that reaction, Alicy's uncomfortable reaction towards him.

"Alicy, I understand if you're not used to it, but do you want to try_"

"Why?" Alice interrupted. Honestly, Alicy doesn't understand why Varenzel is like this towards her.

"There are many girls out there who are your equal, but why did you choose me?"

"That's because I want you, Alicy Swan, nothing else and I'm so attracted to you!" Varenzel smiled then took a breath during his pause in speaking.

"Hm... I think you also know that no human can control their own heart, it's a natural cycle that comes to humans. Even though the truth is that his heart belongs to himself! And now it happened to me, my heart chose you, so what do you think I should do?"

Varenzel's words again made Alicy silent, what Varenzel said was quite base too.

"Alicy!" called Varenzel again, Alicy looked at Varenzel

"Wouldn't you like to try living it with me?"

********

Break time is taking place, as usual the office lobby is quite busy at this time of year because it is full of employees passing out of the building or just heading to the company canteen.

A girl with parted bangs and her hair tied in a bun was seen entering the main door. She is Rhysica, who has been in a relationship with Joan Calain for almost two years.

The son of the owner of the Calain company.

Rhysica smiled when she saw Joan and Joan immediately walked closer to her.

"Where is Alicy? You're not with him?" Rhysica asked enthusiastically while carrying the bag in her hand.

"I'm not with him, he really keeps his distance at the office!" Joan explained.

Rhysica who knows Alicy's personality very well smiled, "Maybe she just wants to maintain boundaries, after all, you are the son of the company owner!"

"What do I care about that?" Joan hissed as if protesting, he looked like a child as his lips pursed slightly.

Rhysica pinched Joan's cheek anxiously "never mind Mr Joan, now I want to meet that naive person, where should I go?"

Joan smiled, this short girl always flattered him "Uhm, it looks like Alicy is in the canteen, come on!" Joan holding Rhysica's hand.

Then the two of them walked towards the canteen to meet Alicy.

Joan said was true, Alicy was in the cafeteria and she was sitting alone eating her lunch. Seeing Joan's presence, Alicy smiled when she saw her best friend Rhysica.

"Oh... how can you eat alone like this?" Rhysica approached and looked in all directions, she sat opposite Alicy while Joan stopped at a food stand to order food.

"I don't have any friends yet!" whispered Alicy looking awkward. "Rhysi, it seems like they have a hard time accepting new people, probably because I came in with Joan's connections!"

Rhysica groaned. "Well, just let people be like that! Besides, you also don't request to eat and breathe from them!"

Alicy smiled and nodded, looking around she looked at Rhysica again "Then why are you here?"

Rhysica kept the bag she was carrying in front of Alicy. "This is for you, after all you don't get friends but here you get a partner, right?"

"Rhysi you__"

"Hehe, I'm sorry!" Rhysica interrupted with a small chuckle, she did get news from Joan that Alicy and Varenzel would start to get to know each other and they would have dinner tonight.

"Alicy, you can't possibly go on a date like that, at least change your clothes and put on a little make-up, look Varenzel! That guy is so charismatic so dress up, you two will definitely look good together!"

Alicy looked back, it turned out that Varenzel and Joan were sitting eating their lunch too. Alicy looked at each other with Varenzel who was always staring at her, then it was broken up with Alicy who returned to focusing on food.

"Are you and Joan involved?"

Rhysica smiled "Alicy it's okay, you really have to try, I mean there's no harm in opening your heart, I'm sure that Varenzel is a good man and will look after you. Look! when he eats he occasionally looks at you. Looking at you!"

Rhysica explained that this was her and Joan's plan, so that's why she came with Alicy's equipment

*******

It was past four o'clock, just when everyone was rushing home but Alicy instead chose to walk towards the women's toilet. To do touch ups as ordered by his best friend.

From outside the toilet cubicle Alicy hear footsteps walking.

"You know the girl who came to this place earlier? She was Mr Joan's boyfriend and she was the owner of the Victory Flowers Shop. Huhh... she's lucky to be dating one of the sons of the owner Calain's Group!"

"Hmm... they've been dating since college, they say!"

"But-But, if you look at Mr. Calain's stepson, he's also handsome, isn't he?"

"Hey,, that's not handsome anymore, but he's really handsome! Calain Group is not only a big company, but also a place where handsome men are! Huh... I wish I could get closer to him!"

"Who wouldn't want to be approached by a man like Mr. Varenzel?"

Laughter started to be heard from the girls who were using the sink and then they rushed to leave the toilet. Alicy clearly heard the girls' chatter, even though this was not the first time the girls had praised Varenzel's good looks.

Alicy was pensive, if the think about it, Alicy feels so naive. She feels afraid of Varenzel because of unclear suggestions due to his paranoid, naive attitude.

Taking a deep breath, Alicy said

"That's right, I should try him, he's a good guy!"

********

Alicy's steps stopped at the T-junction to the lobby, she froze while Varenzel stood waiting for her and was chatting with several employees in the same division as her.

That man really seemed humble with his subordinates!

Alicy was still staring at Varenzel, until it was broken by Varenzel's head turn towards Alicy. Varenzel smiled then walked towards Alicy. Everyone saw how Varenzel walked to reduce the distance between himself and Alicy and then stopped right in front of Alicy

"Ready?"

"Y-Yes..." Alicy answered nervously when she and Varenzel became the focus of attention

"Okay let's have some time!" Varenzel looked at his watch "uhm.. the five hours we will spend later is okay?"

Alicy nodded in confusion "But does it have to be on time, I mean if you have other events_"

"Nothing," interrupted Varenzel very lightly. He grimaced and bowed slightly to Alicy, then he said

"I just want to know, how long will it take for me to make you like me!"
