Chapter 35: Early Morning Meet

Alexa wakes up with continuous pings on her phone and stretches her hand out to grab the phone without coming out of the blanket. "It's 5am, who is pinging me early in the morning", she stares the screen for few minutes in shock after seeing Reo's name on screen. "He got up so early" she starts reading the messages. "Hello Beautiful" followed by next one with "Sorry, I am overwhelmed with yesterday's chat. I am not supposed to call you beautiful" then another one "Not that you are not beautiful, you are the most beautiful women I have seen after my Grandma and my Mom, but should control myself" and then "Good Morning Angel", and then "Oppss Can I call you that, I am not stealing your nickname from Yie but it suits you a lot. I will stop it if you don't want to me to call you with that". She chuckles while reading all the messages.

She tries to reply to the last message when a new message pops up again from Reo "I am sorry, I think have woken you up with my messages" before she could receive any new message, she sits up leaning her back on the wall and start replying "Hey Good Morning, how many sorry are you planning to say today? You did wake me up but I think its fine as need to go back to my Hotel to freshen up. And yeah you can call me Angel, it's a name given by Yie but not many call me with that. So how come you are up so early"

Reo on the other hand halt doing his morning exercise after seeing blue tick mark on his message giving him an indication that she had read his messages and holds back his breathe after seeing typing comment on the chat but smiles widely after receiving the text from Alexa.

"I usually get up this early for my morning exercises and thank you for allowing me to call you Angel. By the way did you stay at Sasha's place?"

"Oh yeah, I stayed back and was planning to leave now for my hotel"

"If it's ok with you, Can I drop you? I am either way awake and can grab coffee together. Only if you are ok"

Alexa rubs her eyes to double check the message as was finding it difficult to digest the text from Reo, the person who only know to give order was waiting for her response.

"I don't want to trouble you, will take a cab"

"You will not be causing me a trouble but will hurt me by rejecting my offer"

Alexa stares the screen for another minute this time not because of the text reply but because the photo which Reo has send along with the text "Omg, I never though Reo can click just puppy face picture" and then she replies back

"Who can say No to such puppy face, will be ready in 10minutes. See you outside Sasha's house as don't want to wake her up so early in the morning" Alexa jumps from her bed and slowly moves to the washroom to freshen up without disturbing Sasha who was sleeping next to her.

Reo on other hand screams in excitement and goes for a quick shower to get rid of the workout smell and change to a pair of sweatshirt with track, put on his sport shoes, leaves his hair half dried and wears his one of the favourite Rolex watch. He walks out of his house towards his car while rolling his keys in air. He jumps in the car and texts Alexa again "I am starting now, Cya soon at the entrance"

Alexa gets ready and pack her stuff which she has carried yesterday in her handbag and before leaving writes a good bye note for Sasha and places it on the bed table next to her. "I am sorry dear, leaving early as need to freshen up in Hotel, Cya soon at the studio for the final day practise. Love A"

Alexa checks her phone and reads the text from Reo which is been send ten minutes before and knowing the speed he drives, she knew he is already there at the entrance. She put on her sneakers to complete the look of her summer yellow flower colour umbrella model dress. She quietly walks out of the house locking it behind and as expected Reo was there in front of his black BMW leaning himself on the car door while watching his phone, probably waiting for Alexa's reply.

Alexa walks up to him and coughs to grab his attention "Sorry for being late"

"Wow…I mean no…Have just arrived" Reo fumbles while replying to her. This was the first time he has seen her this early with sunlight to the minimum and the cool breeze landing on her face and her hairs swinging from one side to other. He sees her finds uncomfortable and quickly grabs his track jacket from back seat and pass to Alexa to cover herself as she was shivering due to the cool breeze.

"Thank you, I have my cardigan in my bag. I was not expecting it to be this cold thus wrapped it up inside" She pulls out her cardigan from her bag and wears the same before moving to the other side of the car to board.
