First Time

When Valerie received a message from Damien, asking to have lunch together, she wondered he was up to. Nonetheless, she accepted the offer and cleared up her schedule for the lunch.

The lunch was to be held in a private room of a restaurant chosen by him. When she arrived there, she saw him already there. What made her frown for split of a second was the bottle of open wine bottle in front of him.

He poured the drink into the glass and drowned it down his throat in one sip before he continued to fill the glass and repeat his actions.

He was too lost in getting drunk to notice her.

Having watched him enough, she knocked on the door in order to get his attention. To her relief, he snapped out of it and looked at her. Seeing her there got him to fix his expression, displaying his usual indifference and arrogance.

"Ms. Valerie, good afternoon," he greeted.
