Tangled Love

Phone Flirting

Dara pov

"Cheat with you." Jiyong texted me.
What does he mean by this? I stared at my phone, hoping i can find the answers. Is this him getting serious now?

"Hon, who is that. Why are you looked bothered or something?Craig, my boyfriend asked. We are currently waiting our orders for dinner.

"Nothing, it was just a client. I am thinking of what he said. Work matter." I lied. I feel guilt, i don't do lies, but this isn't need to discuss with him. Though we have ups and downs in our relationship, we said not to keep secrets how worst it could be. But, sometimes something needs to remained secret.

He is a good man, can be trusted, responsible. But why i feel something, like excitement when Jiyong is involve. He's married man, and maybe he was just trying to get into my pants but why i feel like i also want it. No, its just lust. Temptation get way far from me.

"Leave it, entertain it tomorrow. Its not office hour anymore." Craig said.
"Yep." I answered and turned off my phone. Afraid Jiyong will call. Last thing i don't want to happen is Craig knows my Senior is texting me. We ate our dinner, and drop by in our favorite place after which is the playground. Children are still playing since its only 6 in the evening and the sky is bright. Watching the children playing non stop is relaxing and stress relieving for me. Their innocence is magic. How i wish i will be a child again. By that i can escape the reality even for just awhile.
Craig take me back in my apartment. We watch television while cuddling, making out. Like usual then after our favorite shows ended. He went home. I logged in to my facebook account and chat with friends. Kyle, my college batch mate message me about going out this weekend. Overnight swimming on the beach. Leaving her cellphone number if ever i'll decide to go. I remembered my phone, i need to turn it on. I hurriedly get it from my bag which was abandoned in the coffee table. When i opened it. I got only one unread message. Of course it was from Jiyong.
" Mam, can i call you."? It was his message. He maybe called but cannot reach my number.
"Hey, sorry i got something to do. Whats up sir?" I texted him. Yes i texted him. After boyfriend is gone my attention is in the other guy. Flirt.

After several minutes, no replied. I got sleepy and prepared for bed. After everything, im here in my bed now staring at the ceiling. Hour had passed still no message.
"Fine, i'll sleep now. Nights." i said to myself and finally arrived at the dreamland.

My ringtone awakened me from sleep, shit who called at this hour. I hurriedly answered my phone without looking at the recipient.

"Hello." I answered in a hoarse voice.
"Hi, did i wake you up?"i heard from the other line.
"Jiyong?is this you.?" I asked. Looking at my phone screen, written sir Jiyong. Oh heck. Why i did not look at it first. My slow brain.
"Yes.. Im sorry i did not able to reply. I helped the kids with their homework. You know, daddy's duty."he explained.
"no worries. You don't have to explain." I said. "Wait, why are you calling at this hour, clock says it 1am, where is your wife? Isn't she beside you?.. " She curiously asked.
"No, she's out of the town with her friends." I can hear a sadness in his voice but shrug it off, i don't want to know the details.
"Oh okay." My sleepiness is now gone. I want to ask about his text earlier but i don't have the courage.
"I can sleep now that i hear your voice. I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep but can you please just let the line on while we are sleeping. I want to hear you sleep. Please. " he pleaded.
"Why are you being like this.?" I ask wanting to hear the truth.
"When i said i like you, its not a past. I still do."He said. Seriousness in his voice is present. Holy shit. I'm going crazy, if this isn't a confession of love then what is it???
"You know that its illegal, a sin." I said. My voice is wavering.
"I know, but i can't helped my feelings. I feel like I'm going to explode. I don't have a choice.", he sobbed.
" Jiyong, calm down. You always have a choice, think of your kids, your wife."she tried to make sense into him.
"Well yeah, my kids are the only one that holds everything. Without them this marriage is already done." He said. Trying not to touch the topic of his wife.
"Jiyong, i don't know the full details but whatever it is i'm sure you can handle it perfectly." She encourage him.
"Thanks mam, but my feelings for you, what should i do with it."? I can see his smirk through the phone.
" It will pass, its just an infatuation." She chuckled.
"What i am 15. Infatuation is for teenager." He chuckled.
I giggled. "Why not.?" I laughed.
"Can we make this official. Can you be my phone buddy, just like this. Some flirting, laughing." He was like asking me to be his phone girlfriend.
"Well, let see. Not everytime i do have time. Don't forget i also have " girlfriend duty" kind of thing." She said.
"Don't worry, i won't demand. Just let me like you until it pass." He pleaded. Maybe it won't do harm. I thought.
"Okay then. Now can we sleep. I have only two hours until work." She said in a sleepy tune.
"Alright mam, good nights. Thanks."
"Goodnight." I replied but didn't hung up. I know he's still there. I stared at the ceiling thinking what i did, why i am entertaining such thing, could it be that i have feelings for him? With Craig, i feel safe and sound, that i don't have to worry for my heart. But with Jiyong, there was this thrill, excitement. I don't blushed to anyone even with Craig. Thoughts lingered in my mind until my eyelids got heavy and sleep took over. "Ji.." I able to said before going to dreamland.
