With the natural light coming from the sun rays and beautiful scenery of the beach, Saff can't help but to feel mesmerized by the beauty in front of him that his favorite place became more interesting and attractive now that she is here with him.
Wanting to close the gap between their faces, Saff leans forward as both of them stares at each other's eyes, and he couldn't help himself to get closer as his sight slowly trailing down to her nose going to her pink glossy lips, wanting to feel her lips onto his, Saff carefully and gently move closer until they can almost feel the air that is coming through their noses and smelling each other's perfume.
When suddenly the company phone at Emy's pocket alarmed as she had set it earlier on for them to keep track on their schedule. Both of them got startled by this, particularly Emy with the vibration that came with the loud sound that break them off from their trance, and they immediately rush towards the car as if pretending that nothing had happened. Saff start the engine and drive back to the company at moderate speed with both of them being silent all throughout their travel time.
Once they got back at the company, they went straight at the studio, both are still awkwardly silent. They have arrived a bit early so when they entered the studio, the staffs are not there yet.
'Great! Perfect timing! It became more awkward for the both of us now!' Emy says to herself as she was looking somewhere else in the room just to avoid looking at Saff.
"Manager Emy, Thank you for going out with me today...let's do that often, I want to know you better" Saff was the one to break the deafening silence between them and called her attention as he spoke directly while looking straight at her eyes smiling so handsomely, only this time without his hat and mask.
"No! Let's not-let's not do that more often and just focus on work!" Emy answered a bit stuttering trying to hide her shyness in front of him.
"Are you always like that?" his eyes narrowed at her as he slowly steps forward closing their gap.
"Like what?" she says while her brows knitted in confusion looking up at his face as the young man is taller than her.
"Easily changes your mind? And pretend you've forgotten it already?" Saff says seriously staring down at her lovely face but Emy did not answer him still trying to figure out what he was talking about.
"What happened to what you just said awhile ago? What happened to sneaking often together huh?" Saff continue to say while moving his face closer to hers that almost touches their nose.
'Shit!' Emy curse at her mind, she had totally forgotten about what she had told him awhile ago because of the mere kiss they might have done if it wasn't interrupted by the alarm and now her mind is a bit messed up.
Both heartbeats are racing now, particularly in Emy who is now pounding as if it's going to jump out of her chest anytime soon due to their closeness but her body did not make any single move and instead it's seem like it has a mind of its own just awaiting for his next move.
It looks like they are both challenging each other now, trying to figure each other out but Emy definitely doesn't want to lose this time at Saff's action of making her flutter every time he has a chance.
"Do you know how you look more awfully pretty when you are blushing Manager Emy? And by the way, say hi to the camera for me" his smile beamed that holds a little mischievous towards her.
Emy still didn't say anything until now but then when the word 'camera' hits her thought she finally remember that the room is monitored with CCTV cameras, and with that her eyes got widened in realization, she hit Saff's shoulder out of embarrassment and quickly distance herself from him.
Saff looking at Emy's back now can't help but silently chuckle at her cute response from his teasing, and suddenly the staffs entered the room, followed by the other managers and the Idols.
"Oh! You're already here manager emy! Have you eaten your lunch?" Manager Kate says at the moment she saw her,
"Where did you have your lunch Manager Emy? I've been looking all over the building for you" Manager Tim says as he looks very concerned about her, but Emy being somewhat accustomed to Saff's presence made her unconsciously look at him.
'Wait! What's with manager tim?!' Saff thought to himself while feeling slightly irritated with Manager Tim's words, then he saw Emy looking at him and that's when he steps forward to join their conversation as he says "I'm sorry managers for taking Manager Emy with me to have lunch, next time we will make sure to inform both of you" he says politely to them and continue "Manager Emy I will change and prepare now, thank you again for the welcome lunch" and with that he left together with the other Idols going to their locker room.
Manager Tim and Kate thought Saff was a little different from usual, and as the three of them watch his back as he walks away, Manager kate eagerly praise Emy and say "wow! That's the first...The improvement was fast Manager Emy", and Manager Tim's second demotion follows as he says "yeah..I would have to agree with manager kate, you did pretty well manager emy in just a day"
"Ah...thank you?" Emy is a bit confused, it is not like she has done a lot of effort yet for her to receive praises this instant, and what's the big deal with Saff being polite with them awhile ago? Isn't that normal? Out of curiosity, she asks them "Ahmm…you both seemed amazed by saff's attitude awhile ago...May I ask why?"
Manager Kate was the first to answer, she excitedly say "oh we're just happy to see a different Saff today! Back then he just goes along with the other Idols on whatever their plans or just goes with the flow of the given schedule. He doesn't even bother to make plans on his own, and he is definitely not that type to talk first with us"
"Yes that's true! But don't get us wrong here, Saff is not being snob before, he is just usually the quiet type, yes he talks with the other idols, he jokes with them but he does not usually engage into a conversation like that with us, if you ask him he will answer and that's it" Manager Tim added.
"Oh I see…" Emy answer them both, acknowledging that she understands it now.
"Keep it up Manager Emy! We like this good kind of change" Manager Tim says.
Emy smiled at them, and then the dance rehearsal starts and the Idol's song started to play, and dance with their choreographer. She is at the side of the studio watching their moves, then she remember what she have read at Saff's biography this morning, he is the youngest among the Idol members, and she thought that maybe that's why he acted like that before.
He let his co-members to speak up for him and maybe even decides on minor matters, but the question for Emy now is how does he instantly change like that? She is sure that she haven't done anything yet and she hadn't made up a plan either, she just thought to just do her job professionally so she can also redirect her attention into something more productive than just end up drunk at the bar again. Out of her deep thoughts, Emy did not realize that she was intensely looking at Saff.
Saff's dance moves are very sharp, with him hitting positions on beats, his stability, plus his undeniable charisma; he got all of it balanced. He has a very unique style of dancing, being powerful and sexy at the same time, strong but elegant with a bit of his freestyle moves. As Emy watches his every move, she undoubtedly can say that his trainings really paid-off.
'This young man is really good...I must say he can have so many girls falling head over feet for him' Emy thought to herself while pouting her lips without even realizing that someone is also secretly observing her every move.
While she was at her own world, lost with her deep thoughts, she was suddenly startled by her ringing phone. She went out of the studio to answer it,
"How is my favorite girl? What are you doing?"
"I missed you Ada!"
"You didn't call…seems you don't need me anymore huh?!" Ada says teasing Emy,
"No! Of course not true at all! Just a little caught up at work" Emy sweetly explains to her best friend,
"Alright then how about we celebrate your new job tonight?!"
"Yeah I like that! My treat!" Emy agreed excitedly at Ada's idea, and then they both hang up.
Feeling incomplete without Harry's presence at the celebration tonight, Emy dialed his number to call and give him heads up of their plan but she can't reach him. She tried for few more times but still unable to reach him, thinking he might still be sleeping; she just went back to the studio.
When the dance practice is finally over, it was almost six in the evening, while the idol members are at their locker room freshening up, the managers went back to their respective desks at their office.
"Manager Emy, how about we celebrate your welcome party tonight?!" Manager Kate excitedly ask Emy but letting other two managers hear it as well,
"Yeah! That would be a good idea Manager Emy, since we did not have our supposedly lunch out, what do you think Manager Anne?!" Manager Tim also excitedly agreed with Manager Kate's idea,
"I would love too! Yes that would be a good idea! What do you think Manager Emy?" Manager Anne asked.
