We're on our way to the workplace now, and my head is lying against the window. The rain has also stopped. He didn't come home yesterday, so we'll come to the office together today. I didn't even take my car, instead opting for his, despite the fact that I didn't have anything to use on the way home. I have no recollection of what occurred yesterday and have blindly accepted that this is how our situation is. I was about to walk down when I saw us approaching the building, but as we got closer, I noticed someone standing in front of the building opposite a car I recognized.
"Take me down here," I say, without looking at Lucas since I'm staring out the window at Fernan. I looked at Lucas when he didn't stop, and he only stared straight ahead. Even though I was irritated, I merely waited for him to stop the car.
When he came to a halt, I hurriedly opened the door to return to where I had last seen Fernan. Who will he meet here? A woman whom he is courting does not work here. Perhaps he mistook that woman for working here. When one of my feet touched the ground, Travis grabbed my hand, and I turned to face him. My brow wrinkled as I gazed at the hand that was holding me. I removed it again since Fernan could have left and I wouldn't be able to get his number again if this man didn't let go of me.
"You are not going to that man, are you?"
I wouldn't know who he was referring to if I hadn't known he'd seen Fernan in my hidden hideout. When I eventually let go of his hand, it fell on the seat, and I walked away without saying anything. I didn't have time to tell him everything. We don't obviously require that if we merely have physical interaction.
When I arrived, it was as if a thorn had yanked me out since he was still standing there, holding his phone. I hid behind him and smacked him hard behind to startle him, and I was successful because he nearly tossed away his phone. When he discovered me, it made me laugh out loud. When he saw me, he burst out laughing too.
"Why are you here? The woman you're dating doesn't work here!” I am now facing him while the smile still lingers on my lips.
"Huh?" He wondered questions to me who seemed to have no idea really what I was saying.
“I mean. Aren't you here because you want to visit the woman you want here?” I put my hand on my back as I swung my body.
He laughed at what I said and it looked like I was wrong in what I was thinking. He messed up my hair even though I was older than him and looked like he was a younger brother. We laughed again as we both fell silent and said nothing.
“I was hired by this company. I didn't even want to work in my mommy's company which was suddenly in a high position while I still didn't know what the problem was facing downstairs. I applied, luckily, I got hired.” He looked at the big building and he looked really happy that he was here. The first time he was probably working so he was excited. After a while, he will no longer be excited to go to work.
"If that's what you're saying, why are you still out here?" I looked at my watch because the time was about to start. Even though I'm one of the bosses, I still don't want to be late for work because that's an ugly image. If you are the boss who is late, how can you be a good example to your employees?
"I'm waiting for someone got hired to when I applied here, I'm ashamed to enter alone." He lowered his voice as he bent down and scratched his head. I saw the redness in his ear because maybe of embarrassment. I just laughed softly and pulled him inside. I could still hear his panic but I just dragged him inside.
They looked at the two of us but I just ignored them. When we got to my secretary I let him go. He in turn looked around maybe still overwhelmed because of what happened earlier.
"Tiffany, help him find his cubicle." When I said that, his eyes widened and he couldn't believe that I had a secretary and ordering something. I just smiled at him and was about to enter when he called me.
"Can I have your number?" He asked quickly but that was normal and nothing more to it because he didn't have any feelings for me and courting someone.
"You can not."
I immediately turned to the man who spoke and saw Lucas standing behind Fernan. They are not too far in height but in body, Fernan will be defeated. Fernan's body was just right while Lucas was like a rock.
I was suddenly irritated because of what Lucas said. What right does he have to decide for me? I smiled at Fernan and approached. I held out my palm to tell him to give me his phone and I would enter my phone number. He did what I wanted and I quickly typed my number. When I was finished I handed the phone back to him and Tiffany pulled him away from us.
"Why did you give him your number?" I was walking the office when he was still following me. When I sat in the swivel chair, I faced him.
"What's the biggie?"
He could not speak to what I uttered. I sighed and picked up the papers on the floor, the ones I dropped the day before but I stopped picking up because of what he said.
"I am jealous."
"Stop it." I got up and went back to the table.
“Stop what—”
"Stop pretending!"
