Porques? It seems plural of a vagina, hihi. I cover my mouth, using my palm to suppress my laughs. I hope I am not the only one who gets his name.
“What time are you going to finish? I can wait for you.” She Insists.
“And, by the way? Is she your new secretary or assistant?” She pointed at me.
I’m about to introduce myself when Kienzo says, “she’s the assistant of someone, and she gave me the files that I needed; that’s why she is here.” He explains without looking at me.
My heart reacted to what he said.
“Ah, yeah., I’ll get g-going,” I shuttered and hurriedly went.
I touch my heart where it is located.
Why does it hurt?
I don’t understand myself and my heart; why do I act this way? My chest tightened. I thought he was going to introduce when as his wife; I am so assuming and demanding.
And why am I crying?
--
“Hey.”
I faced someone who called my attention, “Did you cry?” He asked when he saw my face.
I pulled him into an empty space, and I hugged him tightly. Here we go again; he is kind and riding again to my jokes. His character and attitude change again.
“Are you okay?” He is worried about me; I saw it in his eyes. I didn’t think twice about hugging me; he gave back with the same intensity. I felt him caressing my back.
We’re the two of us here, and I guess no one is making an issue about us.
“I hope you are always like this,” I said, almost crying.
“Who hurt you? I will punch him.” He said dangerously.
Asshole! What the fuck!
You! I wanna shout that in his face. His face is hurting me. Why does he need to become an asshole? Being kind suits him, insert my angel sarcasm voice.
“Don’t change your attitude, okay?”I sob.
“And let me allow you to hug you.”
“Tell who hurt you. I will fucking punch that asshole.” He stated thoughtfully; there’s danger in Kiki’s voice.
“I hope you’re like this.” I cried without tears.
“That's what you want?” He asked me in his soft tone of voice. His hug is so soft and gentle. His embrace was warm and welcoming.
“Don’t use that kind of voice; I might be the one who falls first to the two of us,” I complained and whined. I felt my underwear is about to fall because of Kiki’s stern sexy voice. I am falling in love with his voice.
I know he is smiling even though I am not seeing him. That is how he is; he just smiles and laughs at me. He knows that I am always joking around.
“Then, I will catch you.” He answered sincerely.
I was released from the hug, and I felt that I felt a little bit okay.
“Yawn, thank you.” I wipe my face using my palm.
“It’s almost lunchtime. Where do you want to eat? I found out about women. They like eating whenever they are upset or sad.” He licks his lower lip.
I pouted.
“I already told you a while ago.”
He thought and tried to remember what I told him a while ago.
I punch him in his shoulder, and he can’t remember again, “you are handsome, but you have short memory loss.”
I am getting mad. I pulled Kiki’s somewhere.
“Are you eating in this kind of place?” I asked while we took our seats.
I brought him here, I mean, we got each other in the cafeteria, and everyone was looking at him. Who wouldn’t look at him, it is so hot, and he is wearing corporate attire, plus we are riding in a car.
“Yeah, I am not picky when it comes to foods, and the foods here are much better than in the expensive restaurants.” He said while typing something on his phone. Maybe, that’s all about work.
“Agree!” I thumb up and smile widely. He is simple; I like this side of him. Simple in life yet rich.
They serve our order.
“Kiki, can you do this?.” I showed him a video from some social media.
“Basic.” Kiki’s replied after he watched the video.
That video is about the man making a reverse while parking the car.
“This is hot, and can I upload it after?.” I am asking for his permit, “you’ll look more handsome if you did that.” I coated my words.
He chuckled, “sure, just don’t show my face, alright? I Don’t woman to chase me.” He jokes while laughing.
“Sureness! I’ll be in charge of you.” I winked at him and assured him.
I was about to eat again when I remembered something. “Kiki, if you were given a chance. Ay, wrong!” what are the right words for that?
“Again, take two. For example, you love me. Then, will you cheat on me for one million pesos dollars?”
“Huh, one million pesos dollars? Is there a kind of amount of money? Pesos, and at the same time, it is dollars?” He is laughing while asking me those questions.
“Don’t worry. Will you cheat on me in exchange for one million?” I repeated.
He didn’t answer and thought while chewing.
“Hmm.” He thinks.
“Okay, thank your time. I hope you won’t think until tomorrow.”
“It takes your time.” He corrected me.
“Hays, they are the same. The important is important.” I giggled.
‘C’mon, answer my question.” I Demand again.
“Thank you.” He thanks the lady when she serves our follow-up orders.
He serves me. He put dishes on my plate and gave me water.
“Gentleman.” I teased him again, but he winked at me, and I am sure my bra fell because of that sexy wink.
That was so sexy.
“Don’t giggle too much.” He grinned.
“Hey! My questions!.” I reminded Kiki.
If he didn’t answer me, I’m gonna kick him out of this cafeteria. Joke! He still needs to pay for our meal.
“Hmm. Yes, I will cheat,” Kiki said and hadn’t done explaining when I reacted exaggeratedly.
“You are a cheater!.” I covered my mouth when I realized that I had raised my voice. I apologize to those I disturbed.
“No, it’s not like that. It's in terms of practicality. You can have the money, and we can be with each other. It’s just being practical and wise. They won’t know if we returned to each other's arms.” He answered, and after that, he drank water.
“Ah, okay! Okay! You have a brain, ah!.” I clap my hands slowly, and no sounds. I do not want to get someone's attention again.
“But I don’t need that. I have millions, and I can earn more than that.” He added simple, and it looks like he is not barging or being arrogant; he's just stating the truth. How to earn a million? How to be rich??
“Give me if you have a lot.” I threw a joke again and grinned.
Atty. Kienzo is tapping his finger on his table.
“Where is my wife, Manong Rodger?” He asked.
He’s expecting him to see her, but she’s not home until now.
“Sir, they are still together, and Ma’am Claire will stay in his place again.” Manong Rodger informed Kienzo.
He stops his fingers from tapping the table and clenches his fist.
That asshole!
“Ma’am, Claire looks happy and comfortable with him. They have the same vibes. It seems they are already close to each other,” Manong Rodger added.
He even showed Kienzo pictures of the two of them; they had videos of eating outside and hugging each other. They even held hands while walking in a city near the firm; Rodger showed him many of their pictures.
He even clenched his fist.
“And also look at this one, sir.” Rodger showed him a picture.
“it seems like she is working there, and her friend referred her to that work. Her friend is gay, but trusty… she also applied to different companies. She also has a bad record….”
“Keep eyeing her, especially whenever she’s with him.” He said while giving a dagger look at the painting hanging on the wall of his office.
