The Gray Autumn's

The Gray Autumn's
Matin Etrange



Autumn and Leon simultaneously turned to the voice. A blond man walked up to the two of them. He seems to dislike Leon's attitude towards Autumn. "Are you not ashamed to be rude to a girl? Moreover, in a public place like this, "attend the man who is none other than Gabriel. I don't know what he's doing there.


"Mr ...." Autumn looked towards Gabriel. Leon immediately removed his grip from the girl's wrist. He stood right in front of Gabriel and challenged the man to a duel.


"Oh, so this is the prince who is now the idol of your heart until you reject me outright!" leon's jolt of emotion as he straightened his index finger right before the blond man's face, and made Gabriel immediately turn to Autumn with a questioning face.


Realizing a misunderstanding towards Gabriel, Autumn immediately grabbed and pulled the arm of the man she had considered her ex-lover, so Leon slightly retreated and turned his back on her. "I told you it's none of your business!" argue Autumn firmly. "Alright, Leon! I need to get to the office. I don't want to be late for my second day!" autumn's usual facial features look sweet and cheerful, now looks so scary. The girl was very angry with Leon's attitude. "You've ruined my beautiful morning!" gerutu Autumn again.


"You're right, Miss Hillaire. You must not be late, especially because today we will hold an important meeting that must be attended by all team members in the office, including yourself of course. Come on, we better get out there together" Gabriel grabbed and pulled Autumn's hand closer to her.


However, before he actually left the place, Gabriel took the time to speak to Leon for a moment. "Whoever you are, sir. I saw you doing violence against women, and I could've reported it" he told Leon. He then leads Autumn to the car and opens the door for the girl. While Leon still stands and stares at Autumm's departure with the man he regards as Mr. Royce while grunting in annoyance.


"What are you doing around here, Mr Archambeau?" autumn asked in surprise, as they were on their way to The Royal Royce's office.


"My mom lives around here. Last night when the party was over, he called and asked me to come. My mother was a stubborn old woman. He prefers to live alone in the house of the late father," explained Gabriel with a style of speech that is so friendly. The man never let go of a warm smile as long as he spoke.


"Oh, what a pity. Your mother must be feeling very lonely," muttered Autumn innocently.


"Yes, you're right, Elle. Could I call you that outside the office?" Gabriel glanced at Autumn who at that moment turned his head and smiled at him.


"Of course, Mr. Archambeau. That's my name" Autumn replied with a crisp laugh. Gabriel smiled broadly as he blinked one eye.


"You can also call me Gabriel, so as not to be too formal. I actually don't like anything formal. I enjoy the light and comforting things, of course," said the green-eyed man as he continued to drive his car, crossing the streets of Paris that were not too crowded.


"Oh, not felt. Soon autumn will come" Gabriel muttered without looking at Autumn. Sometimes he looked around the beautiful streets of Paris. The Eiffel Tower is very sturdy and looks very handsome. "Who was that guy?" gabriel asked about Leon.


"Is that man your lover?" search Gabriel. He was so interested to know something personal from Autumn. The girl did not answer immediately. Autumn is not the type of person who is easily open and tells a lot of things to others. He rarely shared his love stories with his mother, Arumi. Though Arumi often lure him to tell stories.


"Oh, okay. Too private. I can understand it, Elle," Gabriel said. He tried to hide his disappointment. He thought that since Autumn was a friendly and cheerful person, the girl would easily tell him everything. However, it turned out that Gabriel thought it was too simple.


Moments later, they arrived at the parking lot of The Royal Royce. Gabriel's down first. He opened the door for Autumn. "I hope my friends don't think much because I'm in your car" Autumn said with a sweet smile.


"We can't force someone's thoughts to go along with what they should. Just leave them with what they think," Gabriel replied calmly.


"Your thinking is very simple, Mr. Archambeau. You must have enjoyed life so much" Autumn said. They've arrived at the Autumn table. There some of Autumn's co-workers were already seen preparing to start activities that morning.


"Good morning everyone. Don't forget, we'll have a meeting in half an hour. So, prepare yourself and the material that you will convey later," said Gabriel with his style of speech that still looks calm.


But not with Autumn. The girl looked wrong. "Material? Meanin?" ask the gray-eyed girl while frowning.


"Ah, almost forgot. You have to come up with an idea for us to discuss at the meeting. The idea was for a mid-year event, as a routine ritual commonly held by The Royal Royce hotel. You can think about it from now on, there's still half an hour left" Gabriel explained with a calm smile.


Not with Autumn. The girl instantly widened her eyes. He wants to protest, but it is impossible and feels too excessive if he does such a stupid thing. Inevitably, Autumn must force her brain to think fast and get an idea that feels brilliant.


Whether it will be a brilliant idea or not, but Autumn must think carefully in half an hour. "Gosh, what's up with today? Fuck me!" muttered the girl with half a grumble. He turned on his computer and began to look for inspiration. Ten minutes later, Autumn finally came up with an idea.


The half hour that was waiting finally arrived. Autumn and her comrades walked together towards the meeting room. They waited there, until Gabriel came in. That man will lead the meeting this time. However, of course Gabriel did not sit in the chair of the leader. He chose to stand.


"Alright, Guys. I hope you're ready for each other's brilliant ideas. As always, the most unique idea I'll take."
