Chapter 4: The First Touch

(female lead) Elena Carter

Zara…

(female lead) Elena Carter

Today was weird.

( Best frnd) Zara

Define weird. 😏

(female lead) Elena Carter

He touched my hand.

( Best frnd) Zara

WAIT. WHAT?? 😳

(female lead) Elena Carter

It was an accident!

(female lead) Elena Carter

I passed him the file. Our fingers brushed.

(female lead) Elena Carter

But he froze.

( Best frnd) Zara

And you??

(female lead) Elena Carter

My heart stopped.

(female lead) Elena Carter

It was like… electricity.

(female lead) Elena Carter

But why? I don’t even like him. Right?

........

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

(texting his assistant):

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

Cancel my 3PM.

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

I’ll be in review with Carter.

Assistant

Yes, Mr. Blackwood.

.......

(female lead best frnd) Jake Miller

Are you okay?

(female lead best frnd) Jake Miller

You’ve been quiet all day.

(female lead) Elena Carter

I’m fine, Jake.

(female lead) Elena Carter

Just tired. Mentally.

(female lead best frnd) Jake Miller

You can always talk to me.

(female lead best frnd) Jake Miller

You know that, right?

(female lead) Elena Carter

I know. Thank you. 🖤

In the office

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

You’re focused. I like that.

(female lead) Elena Carter

Thank you... Mr. Blackwood.

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

But you flinch every time I stand close.

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

Why?

(female lead) Elena Carter

I don’t.

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

You do.

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

Are you afraid of me?

(female lead) Elena Carter

No.

(female lead) Elena Carter

Just cautious.

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

Good

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

you should be.

........

(female lead) Elena Carter

(thinking):

(female lead) Elena Carter

What kind of man says that?

(female lead) Elena Carter

Why does it sound like a warning… or a promise?

.........

( Best frnd) Zara

Tell me you're not falling for him.

(female lead) Elena Carter

I’m not.

( Best frnd) Zara

Your typing pause says otherwise. 😂

.......

Claire Blackwood (Laim's wife)

(texting Liam):

Claire Blackwood (Laim's wife)

Don’t forget. Friday. Charity gala.

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

I’ll bring a guest.

Claire Blackwood (Laim's wife)

WHAT guest?

(Male lead) Liam Blackwood

Elena (at home, reading the text):

(female lead) Elena Carter

Wait… did he just invite me?
