Francisco smiled. “Did you just notice?’
Naomi suddenly became anxious because she had never spoken to a man like this before, so she had
no idea what to talk about. She wished that she was Lucy because she was so brave!
Naomi took a deep breath and tried to change the subject. “Didn’t you leave?”
“No, I was just going to.” Francisco looked at his watch. “I’m going to go downstairs.”
Naomi opened her mouth but didn’t say anything, then nodded. “Alright.” “Aren’t you going down as
well?”
“Oh… yes. “Naomi wanted to pull her tongue out. She couldn’t even speak normally anymore.
She walked past Francisco and got in front.
Francisco looked at her back. It was the first time he had met such a shy woman. That wasn’t right.
She had been pretty brave when she encountered that road bully.
When they got into the elevator, there were a lot of people inside who were also going down.
Naomi and Francisco stood on separate sides, and when the elevator moved down, the crowd going in
and out slowly pushed her
The man who was standing next to her kept leaning in on her, and she could smell the stench of
alcohol on him. She took a look at him and saw that it was a poorly dressed man.
Naomi moved her feet, but the man’s hand grazed her thigh.
Francisco could tell that Naomi was uncomfortable, so he looked at the man standing next to him and
could immediately tell what was wrong.
He suddenly put out his arm, pulled Naomi over, and switched sides with her, so she stood in front of
the buttons. Francisco then blocked her from the rest of the people.
He looked back at the man who looked away sheepishly.
Naomi lowered her head while they stood there, her heart pounding and the warmth of his hand still
lingering on her wrist. When they got out, she slowly caught up.” Thank you, for that.” Francisco looked
at her. “Don’t worry about it.”
Naomi quickly looked away and smiled. ‘I’m leaving then, bye.” She waved to him, turned around, and
left.
She felt like she was escaping.
The next day, at Soul…
Naomi looked tired when she arrived at the office because she hadn’t slept well. She kept feeling that
she had lost something the night before. When she remembered Lucy saying she wouldn’t get a
chance if she didn’t make the first move, she would never get a chance.
She must have been pretty silly in front of him.
Naomi looked up. “What’s up?”
She smiled and walked in, then leaned over the table. “Guess if the man who saved us said yes when I
asked him out.”
Naomi’s face froze a little. “You asked him out?”
“Yes.’ Lucy nodded. “We’re acquaintances now. There’s no point keeping him in my contacts and not
doing anything about it.”
After that she raised her eyebrows. “Guess.’ Naomi looked down. “He… probably said yes?” “Yes!”
Lucy took out her phone. “I said I would bring you along.”
Naomi was surprised. “What!?”
“I… I’ve never used it before.” “Who doesn’t have WhatsApp in this time and age? Let me help you.”
Lucy took her phone and helped her with it.
Naomi took a deep breath while her heart thumped. “Lucy, I think this should happen naturally. I don’t
think it’s a good idea.”
“Even if you don’t get into a relationship, it’s alright just to be friends.” Lucy used her phone number to
sign up and even set up a profile picture and username for her. “I got you a beautiful picture, and the
username is a girly one.”
