After Cat was done taking lunch, she came back to the office. Shawn had already arrived from the lunch date with his ex girlfriend. Without speaking a word Cat headed to her desk. She then sat quietly as she started to do her work. She was still thinking of what she discovered about Shawn. She just couldn't believe that he had grown up kids yet he looked so young. She had to figure this out soon so that she could know who Shawn is.
"Cat...", Shawn called her. She turned her head so that she could face him. The corners of his lips slightly curved up as he stared at her. She didn't understand the reason as to why he was acting this way. It was as if he was mind reading her without her consent. She took in a silent deep breath as she stared at him too. She couldn't allow him to see that she was nervous.
"Are you doing alright have noticed you've been too quiet", he goes straight to the point. Cat didn't know what she was supposed to tell him cause he was saying the truth. Even though she isn't a loud mouth. She normally talks to him even when they are working or ask him questions concerning work. But right now, Cat was too silent and that made him realise that she wasn't alright.
"Am fine Shawn", she informs him.
"She is my ex girlfriend who wants to come back to me. Imagine she told me that she doesn't mind being my side chick if I have another girlfriend", Shawn informs her about their conversation with his ex girlfriend. Cat stared at him blankly, she was wondering why he was telling her all of those things. She didn't want to know what happened between them in any way.
"Ooh nice she is pretty you can go back to her", Cat mentioned not meaning it. She just wanted to see his reaction and if he was still interested in her.
"Nah am interested in another girl not her", Shawn informed her with a slight grin on his face. She was wondering why he was telling her all this considering that she was just his employee. He was telling her about his personal life, like Cat was one of his buddies.
"So who is she...", Cat curiosly asked. Her heart thudded loud in her chest as she waited for his response. She knew that Shawn was a cute guy and ladies were the ones approaching him most of the time. She couldn't understand why she was feeling that way when they talked about his ex and the girl that he likes.
"That's a secret Cat you will see her soon", He winked at her with a wide grin on his face. Cat sighed as she wore that same blank expression. She just wanted to know the girl that Shawn liked. Why was she feeling this way towards him? It was as if something inside her was making her like him more as days passed. She couldn't explain it but it just happened that way. She didn't want to fall for him in anyway. That wasn't on her plan when she came to the city to search for her answers. She just wanted to search for her mother and find that hidden kingdom where she was kept captive. She could feel that her mother was still alive. She was certain that she was alive and waiting for her to rescue her one day.
"What's the problem", Shawn questioned her. He noticed the way she was staring at him blankly. She was deep in thoughts and her mind was elsewhere. He could see that something else was bothering her.
"Aaah nothing just remembered something", Cat lied to him. She couldn't tell him what her real issue was. She didn't want him to know anything about her.
"Ooh fine you can continue with your work", He informed her. She started to arrange his meetings and the places he was supposed to attend. Since she was the assistant she was supposed to be arranging his meetings. An anonymous person called them. Apparently it was one of the known celebrities. She had a fashion fair contest and wanted Shawn to participate in it. Cat first informed Shawn about it and he accepted to join the contest.
"Wow this is good looking forward to that competition", Shawn informed Cat. He was delighted that he was going to show case his designs to wider audience. This was good for his business cause he knew that his chances of winning were high.
"Yeah Shawn am certain you will win it ", Cat informed him with a wide grin on her face. She had so much confidence in him even though she didn't know him so much. For the few times she has been with him she noted that he is the type of person who never gives up at all.
"Thank you ", He said as the corners of his lips rose up slightly. He was glad that Cat was there to support him in his endeavors.
