Good day fellow writers and readers. Here’s another chapter and I hope you’ll enjoy it. I don’t know if I’m improving or not as long as I continue writing I think I’ll get there.
Daniel’s POV
I’ve noticed David was so busy recently with all his business meetings. He sometimes goes home late and one time I’ve noticed him spaced out like he was in deep thought. I never bothered him whenever that happens because I know how he would react and I understand him.
“Good morning sir! David is quite busy so….” I greeted and informed Richard but he continues to walk inside the office like he didn’t hear a thing. A few moments later I heard shouting inside and curiosity got me and I leaned closer towards the glass wall.
“I told you I can handle things on my own!” David sounded angry. I tried concentrating but I can’t hear any response from Richard.
“Well, it’s my fucking life and I run this company just fine.” That’s new. I never heard David swear before. Maybe this got him really mad.
“You know eavesdropping is no good.” Diana appeared instantly beside me and that startled me I almost fell from my chair.
“But they’re shouting like they’re going to fight.” Who knows? They might lose their coolness and started punching each other’s faces. Your imagination sucks.
“They always do that for quite sometime though it’s been a while. I think it’s about David’s marriage or something about the company.”
“Marriage? To whom?” I asked a bit surprised and a little bit louder. She can’t be serious.
“They say he’ll marry the daughter of the owner of Princeton Corporation. More like a merging of two powerful companies to be exact.” Diana poured herself a cup of coffee while I remained stunned from the information, sort of, like a secret. I didn’t notice we’re at the pantry. How did we get here?
Diana keeps on talking about random things ‘cause it’s been a while since we had a long chat. She talks about places she’d seen on the internet and how she wanted to visit them but I just stare at my tea feeling the warmth and inhaling the aroma as my mind focuses on what I just heard.
The warmth and aroma of my tea somewhat relaxes and calm my nerves as I think possible reasons why David kept this secret from me all this time. I mean there are secrets that are to be told when it’s time but like he said, we can tell each other anything. Anything. Is that why he’d been so distant and busy lately? Don’t be silly. Its work related so he’ll be busier than anyone of you. After all, he’s the CEO right? I noticed that since the day I went to their mansion and fetch some of his paperwork. Does he know that I heard Johnny talking to him on the phone? Nah. I’m a ninja. Johnny didn’t even notice I was there. What if he’s planning to marry the daughter of the Princeton whatever company owner she is? Is that why he asked me to keep our relationship secret so that he’ll come clean afterwards? I agreed to him to keep our relationship discreet because he told me he’s not yet ready. I mean we’ve been on a date for a while but I realized we’ve never been to a proper date. It’s always lunch date or short date right after a meeting. We’ve never been to real date where we talk about each other and stuffs not related to work. He never asked me out like Johnny did and I’m starting to question what I really am in our relationship. He said before he was jealous because Johnny asked me out first. And now what’s next? You said it yourself that he’s very busy so don’t worry. He’ll ask you out when it’s time. I don’t know. Am I his boyfriend? Though it’s a secret relationship, he never made it official. A friend? Who on earth is fooling around with their friend? A pastime? A distraction?
