Chloe Regens

1 month later..

Ken is avoiding me like I'm a deadly virus. After that incident in Tennessee , he went back home alone leaving us. I felt sorry for the others because we went back to New York the next day.

The girls comfort me because that night I was crying. I thought I will never cry but I cried my heart out alone until Rose realise that I've been locking myself inside the room.

Since that day , I'm trying to go to his office but the security already block me. I tried to wait for him after work but he never came out from his office. I tried to call but my number was blocked. I've tried to go to his house but useless too.

1 month full he's avoiding me.. 1 month 12 days 17 hours 12 minutes 17 seconds.

This feeling is 2 times worser than breaking up with Xander. I have 3 years relationship with Xander and not crying after breaking up and I have no relationship with Ken but crying when he's avoiding me. Stupid? I know

"Chloe?" I just realised that I'm spacing out

"Sorry.. I'm sorry Angel" I apologize immediately

"Why don't you take a break?" She looked at me with a sad expression

"No no.. I'm fine" I smiled

"As your boss , I order you to take a break. You have work hard all this time and you need a break"

"I'm fine Angel , seriously"

"Ken isn't it?" She asked and I sighed

"How is he these days?" I asked since her husband is Ken's bestfriend

"Sorry Chloe but I don't know about his condition" Angel said

"Hey don't be , I'm just asking" I patted her hand

"Go home Chloe.. or take a trip back to LA and see your family"

"Angel I just work for you 1 month , I don't deserve this" I said and she shook her head

"I use your design a lot and you work so hard.. Why can't I give you a break?"

"I-"

"Chloe" Angel looked at me seriously

"Huh?"

"Go home.. take a break , watch netflix or whatever. Try to hit a guy or something" She smiled and I chuckled

"Okay fine.. One day , just one day break" I said

"Okay deal , fine" She gave up , I picked my bag and bid my goodbye to her and walked out from her office. I looked up to the sky and see the sky has the same feeling as mine. It's dark and I know it will rain a few moments after this.

My heart is really broken and I don't know what do to again. It's hard to reach Ken now because he completely pushing me away so badly. Even though I don't see him for awhile , I still like him and the memories with him is still fresh on my mind.

I felt a few rain drops fall on my head but I ignored it. As the time goes by the rain is staring to get heavier and heavier. I walked in the rain and ignoring the fact that it's cold and freezing because of the wind blows so hard.

"A beautiful girl shouldn't walk alone in the rain" I looked up to see a light brown hair guy standing beside me and holding an umbrella

"I'm fine , you can go" I said weakly

"Your face is pale.. here hold this for a sec" He gave me his big umbrella , he took off his jacket and then wrapping it around me

"Thanks but I don-"

"I'm Conard Renov , yours?" He cut me and he hold the umbrella again

"Chloe , Chloe Regens"

"Wanna grab a cup of coffee to warm our body?" He asked and I turned to him. He smiled to me and he seems nice

"Starbucks?" I asked

"If you like that , let's go" He said and Starbuck is just 2 blocks away

"Umm Conard thankyou.. for this and this" I pointed at the umbrella and his jacket

"No problem Chloe , don't walk in the rain again. You might catch a cold" He smiled sweetly

"Yeah.. Thanks for the reminder" I said

"Uhmm.. are you free this friday?" He asked and I turned to him raising my eyebrows

"There's my friends birthday party and I was hoping if you want to be my date?" He asked

"Date?"

"Is it too fast? Look I didn't mean to-"

"Okay" I cut him

"When?"

"In two days" He said and I nodded

"Let's get in first , what do you want to drink?" He asked as we entered the starbucks

"Hot chocolate" I said

"Okay hot chocolate coming right up" He smiled and I chuckled. I sit on one of the empty tables and looked outside the window. It's raining heavily

After a few minutes pass Conard brought my hot chocolate and he gave it to me. He drank a hot cappucino and a sandwich.

"Thankyou Conard" I said once again and he looked at me

"Hey it's fine and besides I was passing by when I saw you were drench. I'm quite lucky I'm helping a beautiful woman like you" He smirked and I chuckled

"You're going to work?" I asked as I pointed to his bag

"Nahh just went to a meeting and that's all for my schedule today" He said

"Ohh.. if you have work you can go" I said

"No.. so can I have your phone number?" He asked , giving me his phone and I nodded. I put my phone number to his phone

"I'll call you Chloe" He said smiling

"Will wait Conard.. so where do you work?" I asked as I sipped my hot choco

"Building next behind this"

"Oh I see" I nodded my head

"How about you?"

"I'm working as a designer" I said

With that I talked with Conard for a few hours..
