MY COLD-HEARTED BOSS

Chapter - 16(Part-II) : 'Did He Agree To Date Her?!'

KRIST PERAWAT

2 days later_

I just finished my work. I took a look at my watch, It was almost time to go home, just then my boss walked out from his office as he came up to me.

“Krist, I’ve an urgent meeting. Let’s go.” He said to me and walked away.

“Ah, Alright.” I followed behind him as we reached to the parking lot. I opened the car’s door for him and he sat in the passenger seat then I went around and sat in the driver’s seat.

“Where do we have to go?” I asked him.

“We need to go to the ‘old town café’.” he said, looking at his phone.

“Okay.” I said as I started the engine, and we left.

When we were on our way to the café_ I took a glance at him while driving. “Are you going there to meet a client?” I asked.

He shook his head as No. “I’m going to meet a friend.” He said and I made my mouth “O”.

After a while_

“Let me call her first.” Boss said as we reached to the café and parked our car. He got on the phone.

“Hello, Lisa. Have you reached there?” he asked looking around.

“Ah, okay. I’m going inside right away.” he hung up the call.

He looked at me. “She has reached already. Well, it won’t take long. Do you want to go inside with me?” He asked.

I thought for a sec. “Uhh…I guess I can wait for you here.”  I said.

“Okay.” he grinned and walked inside the café.

I sat inside the car again while waiting for him. But just then something clicked in my mind.

“Lisa! This name… sounds familiar? I’ve heard it somewhere?” I snapped as I tried to recall. My mouth dropped in shock when I recalled the get-together event.

“Shit! Shit!! Kit, you fool. How can you be so dumb? She is going to confess him. Oh no! Oh no!” I pulled my hair in frustration.

“What should I do now? Should I just go inside and listen what they are talking about?” I bounced my legs and nibbled my nails in nervousness.

In a while, I gathered my courage and went inside covering my face with a hanky and saw them talking together along with drinking coffee. I sat at a bit distance from them and hide my face behind the menu catalogue, and was sneaking them.

“What are they talking about?” I narrowed my eyes, sneaking at them curiously.

In a while a barista came up to me. “What would you like to order?” she asked, grinning.

“Uhh…I’ll have a skinny cappuccino.” I said, still sneak peeking at them.

“Okay. Anything else besides the drink?” she asked back.

“No thanks, that’s all.” I said.

“Okay.” The barista said and walked off. In a while she came up to me with a cup of cappuccino. I was peeking at them while drinking my cappuccino.

“Just a girl you saw twice and you already smiling like this?” I mumbled in nervousness. I thought for a while what should I do.

I tilted my head up as I thought. “What if I’ll go there and threw the rubber cockroach on him. I pictured in my mind. If I threw the rubber cockroach on him then he’ll get scared and will hug me tightly.” A wide evil smile occurred in my face when I pictured it.
