My life my CEO

that he has the same musical taste as me. "What's wrong?" he asks, shrugging. "I have a younger sister who loves that kind of music." "Is your sister better?" I ask, a little uncertain. The l

e women present pay attention to his every step. Is it always like this? - Didn't you like the place? - he asks, catching my attention, and I finally come back to reality. - Sorry, I was just distracted. - I say and go to sit down, but he stops me, pulling out my chair. - Oh, thank you! - I can be a gentleman, Sophie. - he says and winks, sitting in front of me. - So... - I look at him, seeing his honey-colored eyes, looking anxious. - Is what you said true? Or rather, which part of all this is true? - I ask, and he takes a deep breath, putting the menu aside. A waiter comes over to us and Daniel looks at me expectantly. - Can I order for you? - he asks and I nod, since I've never had a problem trying something new. He talks to the waiter and orders a wine that I have no idea the name of. From the dishes on the menu, I assume it's an Italian restaurant. He hit the nail on the head! Even though I'm not used to all that fine structure, I would never say no to a well-prepared pasta. - So, to answer your question. - he says and puts his arms on the table. - I felt attracted to you ever since I saw you, in fact, ever since I saw your photo in the file we have of the employees. Look, I know it may be strange, but I was dealing with a lot of things when I came back to Brazil, some of them, I hope to be able to tell you calmly one day, but I need you to know that I didn't know how to deal with what I was feeling.

But then, I saw that trying to leave you aside and pretending it didn't affect me wasn't working at all. So, I decided to be an idiot and set things up behind your back, try to get your attention and... - You succeeded. - I say, still trying to absorb his confession. - Why did you change your mind? - When you asked if we always needed to act, I saw that that wasn't how you wanted your attention, not as if you were obligated to be with me.
