his Friday is the worst. For Pete's sake, my dear brother who hates gay is coming to town.
Like a Santa Claus.
I went to the office early, earlier than the security guard.
I’m so inspired to go to the office because I will be able to see Yue.
I chuckled. I know for a fact that he is still sulking because of what I did last time about the movie.
But, I love him. Just the way he is.
So, if anyone has a problem dealing with how our love story works, those bitches got to be ready to fix their face.
Like what I have told you earlier if you’re a bitch.
Well? I’m your QUEEN BITCH
ANYWAY, HIGHWAY. LET’ MOVE ON.
“Good morning, Baby!” said the voice behind my back.
I am currently on my way to the pantry.
I don’t need to look at the man who called me like that, because there’s only one guy who always calls me like that.
And it’s none other than, “Oh! Hey, Sir Dave. Good Morning too.”
It’s been a while, since the last time that I saw him. I kinda miss his bubbly personality.
But my grumpy Sir Beks will not be happy if he sees us together.
“Oh. I just came to drop by. I’m bound to Japan.”
He got my attention there, “What? Are you going to leave the company? Were you going to resign?”
Instead, he laughs. A very hard one.
What’s funny?
“Excuse me. I didn’t intend to make you laugh, like hell. I am dead serious, so please stop that.”
He stops, as soon as he notices that I am serious.
“Sorry, baby. I just miss you. I love teasing you. Anyway, I am not going to leave the company, but I am reassigning as a new branch manager in Tokyo.” He laughs.
Grr. I can’t help but laugh along with him.
He is fun to be with.
Friendship Goals.
After that small talk with Sir Dave, I went directly to the office of Carlos.
Before entering the office, I look around the hallway if there is someone.
Yey! None!
I opened the glass front door.
“Good morning, Sir Beks.”
As usual, he is focusing on the monitor and his encoding something in the database.
As soon as he saw me, his face lightens up from his grumpy mood.
Huh! I think is still not in the mood. But I know him better than anyone. He can’t stay angry for too long.
I immediately went to him and I sat on his lap. Straddling him while my back is against the table.
I pinch his cheeks.
‘Aw. My baby is still mad huh?”
I chuckled. He looks flustered. So cute of him.
“Shoo! Get off.” While taking off my hand from his.
“You’re too mean!” I muttered.
Hay. He’s too mean. I’m still sitting on his lap; my eyes were trying to catch his gaze.
But I failed.
He doesn’t even look into my eyes.
Hemp I can’t get you from this huh?
Let’s try this.
“Okay fine. If you can’t compromise with me, I’ll just have to tell you that my brother is coming.
Probably this coming Sunday, I already told him that I am going to introduce you. But I guess you won’t come, I’ll just tag Sir Dave to pretend like you. Anyway, good luck with what you’re doing.”
After I finished my piece, I walk towards the door to leave the office.
Every step I make, I am counting.
Five
Four
Three
Two
And,
On—
“Wait! It cannot be! I am much handsome than Dave. So, brother-in-law wouldn’t like that, that’s why I’ve decided that I’ll come. Why are you looking for someone? I am already here.”
A victorious smile crept on my face.
See? My plan worked.
I lied about Kuya Creed knowing that I have someone I’m going out with.
And, also about Sir Dave, pretending to be him.
HAHAHA. I got him wrapped around my bitchy fingers.
I killed two birds using one stone.
I’m half-evil, half-clever and that makes me GORGEOUS.
Yue is already here in my condo unit, he’s so early.
Fifteen minutes before 5 AM, he’s already calling me on my phone.
Here ego again, if you look at him it is very evident the uneasiness in his part.
“My mon amour! Hurry up! It’s already 9:30 AM.” He shouted from the living room.
I am currently putting my make-up on. I can’t do it fast because I might look like a clown.
Why is he in a hurry? It’s too early before my brother arrives.
“For Pete's sake! Carlos Smith Hayasaki! It’s ONLY 9:30 AM, 12noon is the scheduled arrival of Creed.” I shouted back.
Oh my goodness. I think I’ll be crazy with his attitude right now.
I am about to finish what I’m doing when I heard a knock on the door.
I’m sure that he wants me to do my make-up fast. “I am already finished!”
I took one last glance at the mirror and said perfect to compliment myself.
As soon as I got outside my room, I saw Carlo’s uneasiness.
What happens?
“Psst! Beks, you look like a boy who’s about to poop!” I called him to catch his attention.
As he turned his glance towards me, swear to God. I saw his jaw dropped.
I chuckled.
I closed the distance between us then raise my hand to touch his jaw and said, “Beks, you're saliva dripping.”
He holds my hand as if his life depends on it.
“You’re gorgeous as ever, my mon amour.
But.. how can I impress your brother?”
I smile because of his compliment, but I laugh at his last question.
Seriously?
“Is that the reason, why are you so early here? And is that also the reason why are you in a hurry?” I ask.
I want to laugh very hard, but I am holding it.
His face is priceless. If only I could take a picture of it.
He nodded. “Yes and Yes. I don’t know what to give just to make him like me. What things does he like?
Hobbies? Favorite food? Color?”
That’s it.
I can’t hold it anymore.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Damn. It was epic!
HAHAHAHAHAHA
“HAHA. Crazy! What is this trying to do?
Answering a slam book? What don't you ask about his motto and his crush?” I tease him.
His facial expression does not change a bit.
His face silently screams of helplessness.
I caress his face.
“Don’t worry, okay? You don’t need to give anything to that bastard. Even if he does not like you, it will not change the fact that I love you. So, don’t panic.”
My words are like anesthesia to him. He is now calm.
He returned to his usual self.
I am much convinced because he is now smiling, then pulled me to the parking lot.
We ride on his luxurious and extravagant Aston Martin One-77. Fucking rich boys and their toys.
We arrived at the airport earlier, thanks to his car.
I looked at Yue, trying to find a hint of uneasiness.
Thank God he’s okay now.
I checked my watch and I’m pretty sure that Creed has arrived.
I bet he’s just waiting for his luggage.
That’s when I started to roam my eyes.
I spotted a tall guy with a fuck-boy haircut, wearing a polarized sunny glass, a two-button gray blazer partnered with a rugged jean, and an Adidas superstar.
Oh boy. I knew it.
I immediately raised a piece of paper to call his attention.
He then immediately look at my side then walks towards me.
When he was in front of us, he took off his sunnies and said,
“What a welcome signage from you, Celine. It says...
COME HERE, YOU DUMBASS.” He said then pulled me into a super tight hug.
I’m so happy that he’s back.
