The Man I Married

Chapter 16

"Hey beauty, how your project going on?" it's Dean in the phone.

"So far, so good." I replied.

"How about the bastard CEO? Do he still messing you?"

"Let just say, he's still annoying."

"Oh, what did he do this time?"

"He picked me up in the morning and dropped me off after work. He even forced me to have meal with him."

"What?! What's wrong with him, he changed overnight?"

"Exactly."

"Chai."

"What?"

"Do you still have feelings for him?"

"Where does that question came from?"

"Come on, you always avoid to answer it. Are you still inlove with him? Is this the reason why you never get interested in dating?"

"Honestly, I don't know."

"That's dangerous answer friend."

"Why?"

"If he continue to annoy you, you may find yourself deadly inlove to him again."

"Shut up."

Dean just laugh.

"Don't change the topic Dean. What makes you so busy there?"

"Nothing important. Rehearsal and rehearsal of course."

"What kind of rehearsal you're doing?"

"What do mean by that?"

"Are you hiding something from me?"

"No! Of course nothing."

"Why you sound so defensive?"

"Oh, come on, why targeting me now?"

I laughed. I know Dean never lie to me except for a bad reason.

Someone told me he's secretly dating other man while he having a steady boyfriend. Although I'm not into his boyfriend but I don't want him to become a cheater.

"Okey, I'm wont force you to spill but be careful in your decision okey. I'm always care for you, you know that."

"I know."

"Lets get some rest for now. Be safe there. See you soon."

"Okey. You too, take care. Don't be weak to that bastard."

"Yeah, noted. Bye."

"Bye."

After the call, I prepare myself to sleep when my phone ring again.

"What?" I said annoyed when I saw who's calling.

"Are you on bed?"

"Yes. Do you need something Mr. Hayes?"

"I miss you."

Suddenly, my heart jump on what I heard.

"Don't make a joke Sir."

"Im just telling the truth."

"It doesn't work for me Sir, you can use your flirting ability to other."

"It been a long time since I start looking for you."

I felt something not right in Gunar words.

"Are you drunk?"

"Not really."

"Are you at home?" I asked.

"Are you worried about me?"

"Look Sir, don't jump into any idea. I'm just asking."

"I'm in front of your door."

"What?! Are you make fun of me again?"

"No. I'm really here." Gunar said clearly.

"Wait..." I quickly rise in my bed and see my front door.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked when I opened the door.

"I've been in the place near by." he said. Obviously, he drunk.

"So why are you here, why not go home?"

"I'm so dizzy to drive back home. I just walk myself here."

I sigh. Why he behave like this? I never seen him like this before.

"Okey, I'll let go in to sober yourself, but you must go home after."

"Umm." he entered and seated in the sofa. He lay his head and closed his eyes.

"Don't sleep and wait me here. I gets you something to sober you up."

"Umm." he nod.

After a while I'll come back with a glass of water with honey.

"Mr Hayes, here's your water."

But he didn't replied.

"Are you asleep? Drink this water." I said again.

Still he not replied.

"Oh shit! Why so annoying? I told you not to sleep." I said irritated.

I lay him down in the sofa, so he can't get stiff. I took off his shoes to make him comfortable. I give him a fan because I don't have  aircon in the living room.

That night I can't sleep knowing Gunar is just right there few steps in my bedroom.
