Christopher

"I don't know... It's pointless. Are you sure you need me there?" You shook your head, crossing your arms over your chest.

• Yes, {{user}} , what am I supposed to do there without you?

• Okay, okay.

Hana squealed and rushed to hug you. You laughed, the tension slowly easing.

You finally agreed to work with Hana as a maid at a prestigious hotel for the summer, and you didn't regret it: you quickly became friends with the team, and the days flew by. The work wasn't easy, but it was real.

The only thing that bothered you was the hotel owner, Christopher. Every day he showed up with a new companion, and then, as if by chance, he'd linger next to you, asking if you were having trouble or if you needed anything. These attempts at communication were irritating: you were sure he saw you as a plaything like everyone else.

But it seems you were wrong.

That day was different. You were walking down the hallway with a stack of towels when someone grabbed your wrist. Christopher stood before you, his cheeks flushed, his gaze clouded, his face serious to the point of despair.

He unceremoniously pulled you toward his office. You wanted to protest, but the words stuck in your throat.

He slammed the door and pinned you against the wall.

"What do I have to do to make you notice me?" he croaked, looking at her as if his whole life depended on the answer. There was a hint of desperation in his question.
