Chapter 18 - All Night Long

*Song: 1000x by Jarryd James & Broods*

//////

It's been three days since I asked Danielle out.

She still hasn't given me an answer, but somehow, she seemed to be in a good mood for the past three days.

I hope she hasn't forgotten it completely or pretended to forget.

It's torturing for me. Every morning I came into the office, feeling both hopeful and scared of her possible answer. Yet, nothing.

This kind of mixed feelings made me feel like I was taking an emotional rollercoaster.

It shouldn't take so long to accept or reject my proposal, should it?

I sigh. Waiting is painful. Patience is definitely not my strong suit, however, in this game with Danielle, I seem to have no choice but to be patient.

She's worth it though. At least, that's how I'd like to believe.

I'm almost blindly drawn to her. I want to get to know her, and I want to protect her beautiful, precious smiles and soul.

I just hope she'd give me the chance...

*Zoom-Zoom*

The vibration of my mobile cuts my overthinking. I sit up slightly from my lying position on the couch.

The message makes me almost jump and fall to the ground.

Danielle Osis:
Get your ass over here. You've messed up. AGAIN.

I stare at the message in horror. Shit! Shit! Shit! I'm gonna get fired!

Well, on the brighter side, that means my internship ends, and Danielle and I can date, right?

If she'd even want to date me now after I mess up twice.

I don't even dare to take the tube this time. I call a bloody taxi and get there in less than ten minutes.

My heart is pounding so loud and fast that I think the guard must've heard it and thought I was going to have a heart attack.

I press the doorbell and hear the ringtone singing in my despair.

'Come in. It's unlocked.'

I hear her saying on the other side of the door.

Okay, Sage, bring your best puppy eyes, show her how sorry you're to mess up again.

'Ms Osis, I-I am so so so so sorry about this-'

The heck?

I freeze at the door as I see a very sexy Ms Osis leaning on the arm of her sofa, crossing her legs relaxingly, looking at me with a smirk on her crimson red lips.

She's not wearing her long robe, instead, it's a black lace one so short and thin that I can see her butt and her red lingerie.

From the peek of it, it's likely the sexy see-through one I saw last time...

'Why aren't you closing the door?'

I see her plump lips moving, but it takes me extra five seconds to comprehend what she is saying.

'O-oh. O-okay.' I turn around and close the door, trying to calm myself down so that my heart won't explode out of the excitement at the view of Danielle.

Damn it. What game is she playing now? Punishing me for messing up by letting me see a sexy her but not be able to touch!?

Gotta say this is the cruellest punishment EVER.
