Leo opened the door and she entered.
He walked back and entered with Barbara from the other side.
" We are going to MLN.." Barbara said showing Leo the location and he started the driving.
As she had ordered him, He started playing music. Myra sat at the back and her gaze was on him. She was still looking for a good way to change everything she had said to him.
While Leo was driving, He looked through the rear view mirror and saw part of her face just seeing her eyes. The way she looked showed she was looking at him. Leo smirked at this.
They finally reached their destination and he came out to open for her the door. She came out led the way for them to her reservation. Barbara remained at the door way with Leo as Myra went for her appointment.
" Leo..." Barbara started to break their silence.
" Mm.." He responded.
" I forgot to introduce myself to you. I am Barbara. " She said putting a crooked smile.
" Barbara. Nice name. " He said.
" Thanks. You know I hate being quite with people so you will forgive me if I am saying much. "
" It's alright. You can talk to me. " He said.
" Really? You may look like a tough person but i am sure you are very nice. "
" Do I look tough ? " Leo posed the question.
" Somehow, The way you answered those guys earlier at the work place. I really got scared. " Barbara said and for the first time Leo smiled.
" Are you sure about that? " He asked.
" Yes. " She said.
" Well.." His face turned gloomy again. " I am not used to being around people. So...maybe I will try being nice to them. "
" That will be good. So where were you working before coming here ? " Barbara asked.
" I...I...was actually..." Before he completed his sentence Myra came back and they kept silent.
" Myra, How did it go ? " Barbara turned to her.
" Get me some cold water first.." She said .
" Oh...alright. " Barbara said and left.
Now she walked past Leo without a word and he had to follow her to her car. He hurried and opened for her and he entered and sat on the driver's seat.
She looked angry and he could see that from the rear view mirror.
" Are you alright ? " He asked calmly.
Since it was his first question to ask her. " I am just pissed alittle. " Myra said and forced a smile.
Now Leo turned his head and looked at her but he didn't know how this was going to torture her. There was his handsome face again.
" Do you need anything? " He asked.
She was already feeling uncomfortable by his look.
" ...no...cold ...water will do. " She tried to respond but ended up stammering.
Without a word to her, Leo got out of the car and left.
" Where to ?" She asked but he didn't answer or look behind.
Barbara also just came in with the water bottle and entered the car. She looked behind and handed it over to Myra.
" Where is Leo ? " Barbara asked.
" I don't know. He just moved out.." Myra said as she opened the bottle but before she could bring it to her mouth, Leo opened the door and gave her a paper coffee cup. She stared at him in confusion.
" That is good to calm you down than water. " He said.
" Huh..." Myra slowly closed the water bottle and recieved the coffee cup.
" Thanks. " She said and gave him a smile but Leo just moved back and entered the car again.
Barbra was shocked to hear Myra say thanks to her bodyguard. It had never happened before
" People make wonders.." Barbara mumbled but they heard her.
" Which wonders? " Myra asked.
" Let me keep quite. It's better. " Barbra yapped and pulled out her phone.
Myra sighed and started taking the coffee slowly as Leo restarted the car.
Myra had been disappointed by the MLN Company CEO who had canceled her contract of supplying him with clothes.

They arrived back to the Company and Barbra left the car first. Leo went and opened for Myra the door and when she came out she looked up at him.
" Thank you once again for the coffee. " She said softening her voice.
Leo just bowed without a word and closed the door. He was about to move when Myra stopped him by grabbing his arm. He looked down at his arm and her beautiful hands on it and then gave her a frowned look.
Myra realised what she just did and released him. " I just wanted to thank you for saving my life earlier. I really do appreciate. " She finally let the cut out of the bag.
" So...you knew I saved your life and still treated me the way you are ? " Leo asked.
" ..no...no...not that. " She quickly denied.
" Yesterday I didn't know you were the one who saved me. If I knew I would have welcomed you very well. I am really sorry.." She tried to be polite.
" Don't act like someone who has manners. Even if I was someone else you should have treated me with respect. " Leo said to her and walked away.
Myra couldn't believe this. He has just answered her like this. Will they get along.
This time round she is the one who followed him but Leo remembered his job and waited for her to pass past him and then followed.
____
Myra didn't leave her office again until it was evening and time to quit. As soon as Leo saw her leave the Office, He got up and followed her.
The drive back to her apartment was quite until he saw her off.
On reaching in her living room, Myra removed her heels and sat in the sofa .
He then remembered Leo's words. ' Don't act like someone who has manners. '
" What does he mean now? That I luck manners ? Where did I wrong him ? " She asked herself alone but then remembered all the rules she gave him and lied down facing the ceiling.
" Gosh...this is driving nuts. " She said and then got up.
" I better go to sleep. Tomorrow is another long day. " She told herself and walked to her room.
