Actually, I've been waiting for that guy to ask me out since he started working here.Hey, Alex. Can I talk to you for a moment? I feel a little nervous today. I can't focus on my work and my mind is somewhere else. I keep thinking about something or someone. Actually, I don't know why it feels so hard to say it out loud, but I really need your advice. Because you are my best friend here at work. You know that. And you always listen to me without judging me. I need your help.Calm down. Take a breath and tell me, what's going on? Is it about work, stress, or is it about someone? I can see it in your face. You don't need to rush. I'm here.O-okay. I'll say it. I like someone from work. I've liked her for a long time now. Every time I see her, I feel nervous. My heart beats faster and my mind goes blank. I want to invite her out. Maybe for a coffee or a simple walk. But every time I try, I can't find the right words. I don't know why. I feel stupid. Like I'm back in the school. I don't know what to do.Ah, I knew it. That explains everything. And let me tell you something important. Feeling nervous means you really care. And that's not a stupid at all. It's human. It's normal. So, tell me, who is she? Do I know her? I want to know.Yes. You know her. It's Emma. She works in accounting. She's kind, calm, and always smiles at everyone. Sometimes we talk a little about work or about small things. But nothing personal. I'm afraid of making things awkward or uncomfortable.Okay. I understand. Mark, listen to me carefully. Inviting someone out doesn't have to be perfect. It just has to be honest. You don't need big words or dramatic speeches. Just be yourself. Why don't you go talk to her today? Start with a normal conversation. You just need to be natural, my friend. I know you can do it.Do you think so? Well, I suppose I can try. What can I lose, right?That's the right attitude. I think you will do it fine. Don't worry.Okay. I think she's in her office right now. I'll go talk to her.Hey, Mark. Good morning. How are you today?Oh, uh hi, Emma. Good morning. Um um I'm good. Just busy, you know? Work is a little crazy today.Yeah. I understand. Mondays are always like that. But tell me, did you have a good weekend?My weekend? Uh yes. Yes, I stayed at home mostly. Watched some movies, relaxed a bit. Um what about you?I visited my sister and spent some time with my family. It was nice. Sometimes you really need that break.Yeah. Family time is important. Important. Very important.Is everything okay, Mark? You seem a little distracted today.Oh, yes. Yes, I'm fine. Everything's fine. I I just I well, I should get back to work. Nice talking to you.Okay. See you later. Um that was weird.Mark. Hey. So, how did it go? Did you do it?
