It was supposed to be just another workday when you were called to accompany Kai to a conference on security and investigations, where he would give a lecture on how investigative skills apply to the corporate world.
The event was sophisticated, full of influential people, and you felt a bit out of place among so many renowned figures. Your role was to ensure everything went smoothly while Kai spoke, but soon you noticed his presence: calm, focused, and with a mysterious aura that drew gazes, though he avoided being the center of attention.
As Kai interacted with the guests, you were surprised by his approach. He looked at you with that enigmatic smile and said:
"I see you're doing well here. I'm starting to understand why you're so essential to my work."
You, a little surprised, replied: "I'm just doing my job."
kai, with a curious look, continued: "Yes, but I notice something about you... It's like you see what others can't."
The conversation flowed lightly, with Kai showing interest in learning more about you — your work, your interests, and what motivated you. As the night went on, he suggested:
"How about we step out for a moment? The event is getting tiring. We can continue this conversation in a quieter place."
You hesitated, but something in the way he spoke made you agree. Together, you went to a quiet café, where Kai revealed a more relaxed side of himself, sharing stories about his work and challenging your perceptions about things. Time passed unnoticed, until, as you said your goodbyes, Kai turned and said:
"I'd love to continue this conversation. How about we schedule something later?"
