"Kath, what do you call a camel with three humps?" he said holding his spoon and fork

"what is it?" I said in confusion

"pregnant" and with that we both laugh at his corny joke; I was amazed that arthur has a sense of humour, I never thought he can tell a joke, I never saw him laughing this good; This is our first date, he brought me to a high class restaurant. I looked at him and found his dazzling eyes stared back at me, his perfect curved lips smiles at me revealing his perfect white teeth. His eyes never left mine and before anything happened I broke down the silence that is in between us

"where did you get that joke?" I asked him when I never really had enough of it

"my little brother watch this cartoon movie and I just found it a corny joke but still makes me laugh" he place his hands on his mouth because he can't stop laughing at his joke " sorry I just can't forget that cartoon movie" he says as he calm down

"it's alright, you know I've never seen you this happy arthur" I said honestly "that face of yours always in a poker face that everyone who will see got scared and fear you"

his eyes widen in my statement
"really? I thought it was because I didn't mingle and talk to them" I shook my head, slicing my food

"we thought that you are a heartless boss that always want us to be perfect, you know" I eat my sliced meat

"oh, so that is everyone in the office never bother to step in my way" he rubbed his chin and shook his head dismissively "how's my current status now?"

"well you're the boss who wants to date his employee" he laugh hard as he heard me, he place his hands in his stomach before he get his water and drink them in one gulp then his laugh subside. "why can't I date you? no one says you are in a relationship, and it's your choice to date me right?" I nodded in response, he hold my hands and look at me intensely

"kath, don't mind the gossips okay, all we need to do is have fun of what will be the outcome of our story" his hands tighten the grip of my hand and releases it slowly "let's not talk about them okay?" I shrugged and look at him

our first date ended so nice, we both shared our life stories, I laugh at his childhood memory it was when he was 5 years old playing his little truck in front of the rooster, he bowed down his head in front of the rooster when the rooster started to scratch his head using its feet. I had a good time with him that it took us four hours to talk and didn't bother to look at the time. He sends me off to my apartment before he headed home. And thank you to my died brain cells, I forgot that I was now living with cedi, I slap my face as I realized I need to walk by myself.

I walk along the road thinking of how sweet mr. arthur is, he cared for me, give me his attentions and he knows my presence however my heart beats only for cedi. My thoughts fill in with a new memory with arthur, his dazzling eyes, his pointy nose, his perfect lips, his handsome face and oh so yummy body that I want to try. Not for now though.

I arrived at the apartment safety and sound, I opened the door with my keys and put my bag in the couch. I looked for cedi but he is no where to be found, I ring his phones but he didn't answer; I feel tired of walking so I decided to watch the tv waiting for cedi.

I woke up in the morning to realized cedi didn't wake me up, I went to the room but the bed was still as it is, it means he didn't made it, he didn't stay here then where did he go?

I dialed kenneth's digit but he said he don't know where cedi is, next is nicky but she just said the same thing and so are the others. I called his number but he didn't answer; I swear to God if something bad happened to cedi I'll blame myself for not going home last night! I almost ran to the police station when I saw a familiar motorcycle parking at the front of a hotel.
I walk to the motorcycle and my heart sunk as I saw the plate number of cedi, I tried to think positive but my heart cries more and torn apart. I sneak to a BMW car and wait for cedi to come out.
