Summer break went by fast, before they knew it, the trio was getting ready for their first day of school. ra was extremely excited, she couldn’t wait to see what thebs were like at Osha. Reading her sybus as she walked to her first ss, ra identally bumped into someone.
“Oh, <i>my </i><i>gosh</i><i>! </i><i>I’m </i><i>so </i><i>sorry</i>! <i>I </i><i>should </i><i>have </i><i>been </i><i>paying </i><i>attention</i><i>!</i><i>” </i>
<i>“</i><i>No </i><i>worries</i>.<i>” </i>
ra froze. Although she’d only heard that voice a few times, ra instantly recognized <ol><li>it. </li></ol>
<b>Ethan </b><b>Taylor</b>.
As Ethan picked up the remaining papers, his eyes locked with ra. He could feel his heart tighten as he stared at her, finally, he got to see her face to face. She was beautiful. Her thick long hair was tied into a neat ponytail revealing all of her face.
Ethan was speechless. So, this was the face of the little genius that could save many lives including his sister. Handing ra her papers<b>, </b>Ethan cleared his throat.
<i>“</i><i>My </i><i>apologies</i><i>. </i>Allow me <i>to </i><i>introduce </i><i>myself</i><i>, </i><i>I-</i>”
<i>“</i><i>Ethan </i><i>Taylor</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
<b>ra </b>cut him off. Ethan’s brows furrowed at the sound of her saying his name.
<i>“</i><i>So</i><i>, </i><i>you </i><i>know </i><i>who </i>I <i>am</i><b><i>?</i></b><i>” </i>
Feeling slightly shy, ra turned her head.
“<i>I </i><i>do</i>. <b><i>I </i></b><i>saw </i>a <b><i>video </i></b>of <i>the </i><i>g</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
Ah<b>. </b>

That made sense. He knew it was only a matter of time before what happened that night got back to ra. Ethan smiled sheepishly, cing his hand behind his neck.
<i>“</i>I’m <i>sorry </i><i>about </i><i>that</i><i>. </i><i>I </i><i>hope </i><i>you </i><i>can </i><i>forgive </i><i>me </i><i>for </i><i>interfering </i><i>with </i><i>your </i><i>personal </i>business.”
ra’s eyes popped out!
“Oh, <i>no</i><i>! </i><i>Please </i><i>don’t </i><i>apologize</i>! I…<i>Well </i><i>you </i><i>see</i>, <i>not </i><i>too </i><i>many </i><i>people </i><i>have </i><i>ever </i>spoke <i>up </i>for <i>me </i><i>like </i><i>that before </i><i>so </i><i>thank </i><i>you</i>.<i>” </i>
Ethan could feel his heart pounding loudly, why did she have this type of effect on him.
Strange.
<i>“</i><i>Well</i><i>, </i><i>you </i><i>most </i><i>certainly </i><i>deserve </i><i>it </i><i>and </i><i>much </i><i>more</i>.

ra could feel her ears reddening. Nervously, she gathered her papers and turned
around.
“<i>Well</i><i>, </i><i>it </i><i>was </i><i>really </i><i>nice </i><i>meeting </i><i>you </i><i>Chairman </i><i>Taylor</i><i>. </i><i>I </i><i>have </i><i>to </i><i>get </i><i>to </i><i>ss </i><i>now</i>.”
“<i>Oh</i><i>, </i><i>yes </i><i>of </i><i>course</i>. I’ll <i>see </i><i>you </i><i>soon</i>.<i>” </i>
ra bowed her head and turned to leave. As if she forgot something, ra turned back around.
<i>“</i><i>Oh</i><i>, </i><i>Chairman </i><i>Taylor</i>…<i>Thank you</i><i>! </i><i>That </i>jet…it <i>was </i><i>my </i><i>first </i>time <i>flying </i>in one!”
Her face beamed disying her dimples and bright teeth. After thanking Ethan, she turned and rushed to ss leaving Ethan Speechless.
<b><i>Ethan’s </i></b><b><i>POV</i></b><b><i>: </i></b>
Ethan <b>made </b>his way to <b>the </b>east wingb <b>office</b><b>. </b>Pulling out his phone, he <b>hurriedly </b><b>called </b>Owen<b>. </b>
<b>9:40 </b>Fri<b>, </b><b>Sep </b><b>5 </b>
“Boss.<i>” </i>
<i>“</i><i>She’s </i><i>here</i><i>!</i><i>” </i>
<i>“</i><i>Huh</i><i>? </i><i>Who’s </i><i>where</i>?”
“<i>ra </i><i>Rouleau</i><i>! I </i><i>just </i><i>met </i><i>her</i><i>!</i><i>” </i>
:
Owen was in shock. He’d never seen Ethan act like this over a woman before. Owen had known Ethan since middle school, and they had been friends ever since. Although many girls and young woman often liked him, because he was so fixated on his work, he never made time to focus on things like dating. It was interesting hearing him get so excited
about someone.
“<i>Oh </i><i>yeah</i><i>, </i><i>did </i><i>she </i><i>recognize </i><i>you</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>
<i>“</i>As a <i>matter </i>of <i>fact</i><i>, </i><i>she </i><i>did</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
Owen satpletely up in his chair. He hadn’t expected that response.
<i>“</i><i>How</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>
Ethan let out a light chuckle.
<i>“</i><i>Apparently </i><i>there </i><i>was </i><i>video </i><i>of </i><i>the </i><i>g</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
“<i>Huh</i><i>. </i><i>I </i><i>guess </i><i>that </i><i>makes </i><i>sense</i>. <i>So</i><i>, </i><i>I </i><i>take </i><i>it </i><i>she </i><i>figured </i><i>out </i><i>you </i>were <i>the </i>one that put her on the <i>jet</i><i>?</i><i>” </i>
<i>“</i><i>Yup</i><i>. </i><i>She </i><i>even </i><i>thanked </i><i>me </i><i>for </i><i>it</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
Owen let out a nervousugh.
“<i>Well</i><i>, </i><i>that’s </i><i>a </i>first.<i>” </i>
Pause<b>. </b>
<b><i>“</i></b><b><i>Yeah</i></b><i>, </i><i>it </i><i>is</i><i>.</i><b><i>” </i></b>

<i>“</i><i>So</i><i>, </i><i>when </i><i>are </i><i>you </i><i>going </i>to <i>tell </i><i>her </i><i>about </i><i>why </i><i>you </i><i>want </i><i>to </i><i>work </i><i>with </i>her<i>?</i><b><i>” </i></b>
“In <i>due </i><i>time</i><i>. </i><i>I’d </i><i>like </i><i>to </i><i>at </i><i>least </i><i>get </i><i>limated </i><i>in </i><i>Osha first</i><i>.</i><b><i>” </i></b>
Owen paused for a moment.
