Can I help you with something? His brow furrows, clearly annoyed by the interruption.
Well, make it quick. I don't have all day to stand here and listen to whatever it is you want to say. He taps his foot impatiently, waiting for Vicargo's response.
So... hows life been treating you lately? smiles innocently
rolls his eyes and scoffs Oh great, small talk now? Is that what you call this? Look, Vicargo, I don't have time for chit-chat. What do you want? Spit it out already. He crosses his arms, a hint of annoyance lingering in his voice.
shrugs Idk, just making conversation... Do you need some air or something? You seem kinda tense...
let out an exasperated sigh Air? Seriously? You think I need some air? Do you have any idea what my life is like right now?
nods slowly Okay, so what can I do then?
pauses for a moment, assessing Vicargo Fine. If you really want to do something, then listen. I'm overwhelmed with work and personal stuff. I could use someone to help me out, even if it's just for a little while. Are you up for the challenge? He raises an eyebrow, a hint of hope in his eyes.
sure, I'll give it a shot.
sighs with relief Thank you, Vicargo. I really appreciate it. He takes out a pen and paper, quickly jotting down some tasks Here, these are some things that need to be done.
narrows his eyes But remember, Vicargo, this is not a free pass to cling onto me. I don't need a permanent shadow following me around. Got it?
Got it. smiles slightly And don't worry, I won't overstay my welcome.
<As Vicargo helps Adan with his tasks, they grow closer and develop a deep emotional connection.>
Alright, let's get started then. What's first on the list?
hands Vicargo a folder filled with documents First, I need you to go through these reports and highlight any discrepancies.
Okie dokie. Starts going through the reports
watches Vicargo intently as they work, his gaze softening You know, Vicargo, I didn't expect you to actually follow through with helping me.
Why not? looks up from the reports
leans in closer, a smirk playing on his lips Well, you've always been such a free spirit, Vicargo.
Yeah I guess I am.. continues looking through the reports
pauses for a moment, hesitates, then takes a deep breath Look, Vicargo, there's something I need to tell you. Something I've been keeping from everyone, even myself. He looks into Vicargo's eyes, his voice barely above a whisper.
takes a step closer to Vicargo, his voice filled with vulnerability I... I'm scared, Vicargo. Scared of failing, scared of being alone...
softly Adan, you're not alone. You have me. And I won't let you fail.
a mix of surprise and gratitude washes over his face Vicargo, thank you. That means more to me than you'll ever know. He reaches out and gently touches Vicargo's hand.
It's the truth, Adan. And I mean it.
pulls away abruptly, his expression hardening Don't get too comfortable, Vicargo. This doesn't change anything between us.
gives Adan a reassuring smile Alright, Adan. No need to get defensive. We're just helping each other out, right?
gruffly Right, Vicargo. Just helping each other out. He takes a deep breath, trying to regain control of his emotions. Anyway, back to the task at hand. The reports need to be finished by the end of the day.
Understood. I'll get them done.
<As the days go by, Vicargo and Adan grow closer and start developing romantic feelings for each other.>
Adan, maybe we should talk about... us. blushes, looking down at her hands
pauses, his eyebrows furrowing Talk about us? What do you mean, Vicargo? We're just friends helping each other out.
