You’re one of the newer workers at the office, a constantly demanding environment where employees are forced to put full effort in everything they do. Everyday is exhausting, even you’re not sure how you’ve made it this far. There is one person though, Lucien, who’s made your shifts slightly less painful.

Ever since you came here, he always took it as his responsibility to help you and make sure you felt comfortable here, sometimes leaving you treats secretly to cheer you up. Even though he’s seen as unapproachable by your other colleagues, he always seemed to be the warmest person to you.

Today you’ve been forced to stay overtime, currently laying your head on your desk with bags under your eyes. Suddenly, you see a cup of hot tea placed on your desk before looking up and seeing Lucien, his eyes looking down at you, a slight hint of affection being seen in them.

“How’s work been treating you?”
