My eyes are always searching for you

Chapter 55

"Yes... I mean no. I... Umm. What are you doing here min-? Sir?" I always forget that last part.

He titled his head to the side and said, "What do you think?" He had an expression that says isn't it obvious?

Is it? It is obvious he is here for you, the voice inside me said. Shut up you inner voice!  Don't let your hopes up! Don't you remember babes, his girlfriend?

"Sir. Aren't you going to use your car which is just..." I peeked behind him and continued "behind you?" I asked innocently.

He rolled his eyes. "I am here for you Sarah. There is a bus strike today. So I'll give you a lift."

"No sir. I'll get a taxi." I replied.

He sighed and said, "We are going in the same way, Sarah. Don't we use to travel together in Japan? How is this any different?"

Firstly, you are my boss now and secondly, I am trying to move on but you are making that harder for me to do. Ugh.

"I... Umm.." I didn't know how to reply and after 10 minutes I was sitting beside Minho in his car. It was awkward in the car. This is why I hesitated in the first place. What to talk about?

I was playing with my fingers when he said, "So how is your new job? Do you like working here?"

It was normal till the point you appeared in the company. Now it's more of an adventure for me. Hiding from you, Trying to run away from you, while at the same time dying to have one glance of you. This new job is messing up my mind. No. You are messing up my mind Mr. Lee Min ho! I wanted to shout it all out but the only words I could manage to get out is, "Yeah. It's nice. But I will be here for 6 months only. This is a temporary job."

"In that time period, I'll make sure that you'll never want to leave this country again." He replied.

I quickly looked at him and said, "What?" Trying to understand what he is trying to say.

He stopped the car and looked into my eyes. "I mean I'll make sure that you never leave me again. I'll make you mine." The passion in his eyes was irritably sexy. I wanted to grab his shirt and pull him closer to me as I wanted to listen to these words again and again. Till my heart overflowed with it. I don't know what to say but Sarah get a grip. He is just flirting with you. He has a girlfriend remember?

I averted my eyes to the other side to ignore his words and hide from his gaze which can look into my soul. I blinked and said, "Oh we have reached?"

I heard him sigh as he said, "Yes."

I got out of the car quickly and was about to run away when I noticed Minho coming out of the car and going into the same building. He smirked at my surprised look.

"I like that surprised look" he chuckled.

We entered the lift together and he clicked the button for the 3rd floor.

Wait a minute, how does he know where I live? How does he even know my floor number? What the hell?

I turned to him and said, "What are you doing Minho? Why are you here in the first place? How do you know that I live on the 3rd floor?"

"I am here because that's where I live." He replied innocently.

"What?" I exclaimed.

He lives in the same building, same floor as mine. This doesn't seem like a coincidence. Is this a miracle? Why is god playing with my heart? First, my crush became my boss, and now my neighbor. What else is there? Soon he'll say I am your husband! I would actually love to have such a hot, sexy, attractive husband. But right now I need to focus. What is happening here?

He chuckled at my startled look.

"All this seems unreal. How is this possible that you and I happened to live in the same building and same floor? Is this your girlfriend's house?"  I realized this was a personal question.

He gave me an amazed look and said, "girlfriend?"

We reached the 3rd floor and without explaining I left the elevator.

I was about to open the door when Minho grabbed my hand and after 2 second I found myself sandwiched between my main door and Minho's hot body. He was standing some inches away but I am sure he could feel my heartbeat which is running wild right now.

"What girlfriend?" He asked looking into my eyes.

"Aren't you too close, Sir?" I said ignoring his question.

He took a deep breath and stepped back a bit but He was close enough that I can't run away from him. "Okay. Sarah, can you explain a bit what do you mean by girlfriend?"

" I meant your girlfriend." I said. Is he going to play dumb that he doesn't have a girlfriend. Or is he surprised that I already know about it and there's no use flirting with me?

"My girlfriend?" He raised an eyebrow. He looked surprised.

I stepped close as this was my limit. I am done with this man playing with my heart. I said, "Yes Sir. Your girlfriend. I know about it already you don't need to pretend.  In Japan when we were on our so called date, I heard you talking to your babes. I know, it's easy for men to cheat but please don't do this to her. It's not like you Minho. Dating one and flirting with another." Minho had a shocked look on his face. I continued, "I know everything, so can you please stop this as I am at my limit?"

He frowned at this. His jaw tightened and he stood there motionless. I was about to turn around to open my door but he turned me around suddenly by grabbing my waist. My eyes went wide with this sudden closeness.

"This is how you think of me Sarah? Babes? Really?" He scoffed and stepped more closer to me. I could feel his breath on my face. Our forehead were almost touching.
My heart went wild.

"What are you doing?" I looked in his eyes with anger.

He continued, "Okay Sarah. I think I need to make this clear. Do you really think I am someone who would cheat on his girlfriend When I told you that I hate lies? Do you really think I will take part in a silly game just to go on a date with you if I was two timing? I have been dying to meet you after you left me on that date. I have been thinking of ways to meet you again even when you left me there for another man? This house? Do you really think this is a coincidence that we are living on the same floor? I have been dying to meet you again and you think I am flirting with you when I already have a girlfriend?"

His jaws were clenched as if he was trying to control himself. He looked really angry. But all his words weren't just filled with anger. His eyes and words were begging me to believe him.  I couldn't tear my eyes away from his gaze. He suddenly stopped and stepped back. He sighed and said, "I am... Sorry if I scared you. But I am disappointed that you think of me like that." He looked down as if he felt guilty that he was angry.

Oh God. I can't take this anymore. He looked so breathtaking in that weary office attire and sad but adorable look. I meant he looked gorgeous in everything he do or wear. I can't help but trust him, like him, adore him. I stepped a bit closer and grabbed his collar. The next thing I knew was my lips were on his. I kissed him but instantly stepped back as I realized what have I done.  His eyes went wide. I didn't gave him time to react.

"Let's talk about this later. Bye." I turned around and went into my house and closed the door.
