My eyes are always searching for you

Chapter 56

"What the hell did I do?"
"Why did I do it!?"
Okay, okay, I was the one who was wrong. I was the one who did it. I gave in to the temptations. Still. I am angry with myself.

That night I wasn't able to sleep. What will Minho think of me? How will he react? What will I do when I will meet him?  He is my boss so is this sexual harassment? Will he charge me for it? No. No. He said he wants me to be his. Oh God, why does that sound so nice? I can't stop smiling like an idiot. That night, I had two phases. First I was angry with myself for kissing him suddenly and the second one was I was happy that he wants me and I would love to do that again.  Yes. I think I need a psychologist. Then I imagined Minho in the psychologist's seat and cringed. I am turning into a lunatic for sure.

Well, the next day, I peeked outside after getting ready. I made sure that I won't bump into him. I need to avoid him until I find a reason or excuse for what I did. I was about to sigh with relief as I was alone in the lift when at the last second, a foot stepped in to stop the lift from closing. The most dreaded moment of my life! Boom! Minho came in.

Really God? Why? I stared at the ceiling of the lift for some time and then stood facing the wall while I and Minho were alone in the lift. I was too busy to stare at the wall in front of me when I felt his breath on my neck. I didn't even realize that Minho was too close to me when he whispered, "Should we continue what we were discussing yesterday night? I got goosebumps to have him so near. I could feel the warmth of his body. I was nervous but I didn't want myself to be separated from this warmth. I was imagining what would it be like to snuggle into his large, and hard chest.

I was too red to say anything. He stepped back suddenly and said, "Miss Sarah, time to go to work. Let's talk about this after work on a dinner date. What do you think?"

I was a bit disappointed by this sudden change of atmosphere. He changed from a flirty boyfriend to an authoritative boss so quickly! I wanted him to play the former role though.

I turned around and coughed a bit and words slip from my mouth, "Date?"

Date? Are we going on a date? Wait a minute I haven't agreed to it.

He tilted his head and said, "Yes. You don't agree to it?"  His eyes were piercing in my soul. I can't resist them. He knows that he has that effect on me.

"Umm... No. I mean yes. I'd like-... I mean." I was stuttering as my heart was fighting my mind. I would love to go but after what I did last night I don't know if I should go or not.

"You mean?" He was still staring at me trying to read me.

"I mean... Okay." I sighed. "Okay," I said giving in.

He chuckled at my nervousness. "Look at you. You have turned red. You look so cute-" he said as he lifted his hand to touch my cheek but then suddenly the lift door opened and I ran to my rescue.

I could hear him laughing but I couldn't care less. I know I have turned red and It's embarrassing.

It was lunchtime when I got a msg from Emily.

Emily: I've got something to tell you.

Sarah: what is it?

Emily: My colleague told me that Minho has a girlfriend.

Sarah: what?

Emily has joined the company where Minho worked as the chief editor and is currently on break because he is going to handle MODA for the time being. Emily has been trying to search for every information she could get about him. Usually, it's useless. Like he is a workaholic or too handsome that girls in the office are after him. But this was something new.

Emily: Yes. Elle (my colleague) has seen her.

Sarah: What? Is she telling the truth? Or some made-up story?

Emily: No. Another colleague also admitted that He saw Minho's girlfriend and Minho even introduced her as his girlfriend.

My little heart which was flying till now fell down in one blow. He does have a girlfriend. What was I even thinking?

I sighed. I don't know who to trust.

The next I knew I was standing outside the office when Minho stopped his car in front of me. What should I do? Is he a Playboy? Does he genuinely like me? Should I just ignore him? But what am I afraid of? He is the one who is playing with my heart. Okay. Let's do it.

I opened the door of his car and sat inside. He gave a million-dollar smile which shows he is excited to go on a date with me. But how can I trust him? But my heart is persuading me to trust him. What should I do?
