Chapter 9: Bonding

Engfa's POV

I am glad I get to hang out with Char, making her happy, even if it's temporary. We talked for hours and hours about personal and fun topics. But the fun only lasted for a while when I got a phone call from my colleagues that a case was coming in.

I couldn't help but excuse myself from Char and bid her goodbye even though I didn't want to. Nonetheless, I asked her to meet again later if she wished to, around 8 pm, after my working hours.

And she says I am suspicious of wanting to see her again on the same day. Is it that bad that I wanted to hang out with her?

"Why do you seem wary of me wanting to hang out with you?" I tried to make sense of her words.

"Nothing... I just never met someone who likes to hang out with me. Not even my boyfriend. Am I funny to you?" She questioned me to search for a reason as to why I behaved this way.

"You don't have to search for meaning in my actions. I just wanted to hang with you. That's all." I shrugged it off. In reality, I wanted to be with her because I had more fun spending time with her and was happy compared to Tor. But that might be because she's a new person in my life.

"Fine! Maybe we should meet at my house instead. How about that?" She suggested a place to hang out, and I agreed with her idea.

...

After I finish working, I go to my house and go for a shower. But then, I was surprised to see my boyfriend at my home. I kept on forgetting that I still have Tor.

Gosh! I really need to give Tor some attention because lately, I am slowly becoming the worst girlfriend ever.

Therefore, I showered him with multiple kisses to compensate for my disappearance all day without texting him anything. At that moment, we were just two lovers, making the moment last, which caused him to get a glow on his face. I knew right away that he was enjoying all the attention I gave.

Suddenly, our moments get interrupted before Tor was about to remove my clothes and do the deeds. My notification bell goes off, and my mind immediately assumes that the notifications could be from Char. So, I excused myself from Tor and went to the bathroom with my unbuttoned blouse.

As I checked my phone, my guess was right, and Char texted to see if I was on my way. When I saw the watch on my wrist, it showed that it was almost 8 pm. I haven't yet showered, and my boyfriend is waiting for me in the living room.

"What should I do?" I struggled to make decisions. Should I just tell Tor?

The situation makes me feel like a cheater if I don't say anything. I am sure he can understand. Shortly after, I went to the living room and explained to Tor that I needed to go somewhere tonight. At the same time, my phone rings, indicating that someone is calling, and I know it's Char.

Because of the constant ringing of notifications from my phone, Tor realised that and was vividly upset, but he didn't say anything. I revealed that it was Char and his eyes widened, looking in disbelief.

"Oh, wow! Are you guys becoming best friends already? That's good to hear!" But his voice sounded sarcastic.

"No, No... we're just bonding with each other," I didn't even know why I said that. Thankfully, Tor just let me do my own thing and go to Char's house.
