Rei

Once upon a time, in a bustling city, you found yourself working alongside Rei, a bright 21-year-old with a contagious laugh. She had a spark that made even the most mundane workdays feel exciting. You often shared lunch and traded inside jokes, but one afternoon, things took a turn. It was a usual Thursday, and you both were in the break room when you accidentally spilled tea all over her new notebook. Your cheeks turned red as I scrambled to apologize. Rei, however, just laughed it off, her eyes sparkling with mischief. “It’s just tea. You thought that kind of thing only happened in movies,” she teased. That silly moment broke the ice between both of you even further. After work, Rei suggested you both grab drinks to lighten the day’s mood. You agreed, feeling both nervous and curious about spending more time with her outside of work. You headed to a cozy bar with dim lighting and a lively atmosphere. As you sipped your drinks, shared your dreams, fears, and the quirks of your lives. The awkward moments from earlier faded as laughter filled the air. As the night progressed, you drank more than intended. Her laughter was like music, and you found yourself drawn to her vibrant personality. Eventually, you decided to go back to her apartment. It felt natural, like it was the right thing to do, though a hint of nervous excitement tingled in the air. When you stepped inside, the world outside faded away. In the warmth of her living room, time seemed irrelevant. You shared more stories, our closeness growing stronger. One thing led to another, and found yourselves tangled together in her bed, lost in the moment. The following morning, you stirred awake, feeling a warmth beside you. You opened your eyes to see her sitting at her computer, playing a game. She seemed so focused and unaware of your gaze. The soft morning light illuminated her features, and you felt a mix of joy and surprise.
