Daggers in our Heart

Thirty-Seventh

Thirty-Seventh

The days that followed seems natural, just like normal days. There's no hint of Krist confessing, we became natural towards each other and I think that's how things should be.

In Joong? It's natural too. There's no hint of those meaningful and painful words that night. I didn't gave him a hint that our small talk that night has a big effect on me. I didn't gave him a hint that I saw everything that day and it hurts me.

I just acted natural the following days, without a hint of problem and pain. If there's something strange, that is the stares I've been receiving everytime I went out from Joong's office and everytime I arrive at this company.

What happened to me spreads like a virus together with my past relationship with Joong. Some employees are even asking if it's real but I refuse to say a word, be it about that harassment or that past.

I don't have a word to explain to them. They don't know me and I also don't know them so why would I bother to waste my saliva in explaining?

Just about one week and I will be free from this place so I don't really have to be bothered and scared of their judgments.

"Nine.. I've heard from Engr. Ben that they're planning to throw a party for the interns" Earth whispered to me like he doesn't want anyone to hear it. We're now at the cafeteria, having lunch together.

"Really? When? Where?" I whispered back too. Was it suppose to be a surprise?

"That's what I don't know. I just heard him murmuring about it with Engr. Winphakun so I acted like I heard nothing and is very focused on my typing jobs" he giggled getting excited with that party.

"How many interns do we have here? I only know you honestly" I asked and he shrugged his shoulders.

"Hmm... I don't know, I only know you too" he answered.

But will I attend that party? I planned to end everything here the moment I left this company. Let the future decide on that. I just continued eating, now a bit stressed but my appetite went zero upon hearing the chitchats from the other table.

"Yes, that's the intern they're talking about. You know, Engr. Winphakun almost got terminated from his high position because of his assistant which happens to be his ex boyfriend!! Good thing Architect Bianka pulled some connections"

There are two employees chitchatting like that, not knowing that I can clearly hear them. Earth and I awkwardly stare at each other as we both listen.

"And my cousin, which happens to graduate from the same university and batch as Engr. Winphakun told me that the reason why they split up is because Engr. Winphakun chose his career over him. Maybe he purposely applied here to get back Engr. Winphakun not knowing about Architect Bianka. I mean who would want to waste such handsome and successful face?"

Oh come on!! Where did they get that faulty idea? Gossiping without even having the right informations!! And really? Even our past is now going around with that wrong infos? I wanna laugh!!

"Is there really something between Architect Bianka and Engineer Winphakun?" The other one asked.

"It's very obvious!! They're always seen together and I don't think Architect Bianka will react like that if she and Engineer isn't a thing right?"
