Jared’s side of the story

How could this be possible?! That person is here in their house? He doesn’t know what’s happening to him maybe it sounds crazy but he keeps on thinking about her. The vision on his mind is so clear…he could see all the details the first time he saw her on that wedding dress more than a month ago. He just couldn’t pass a day without her bugging in to his system.

Whenever he’s at the office, her face just flash through his thoughts instantly that he would find himself absent minded on the middle of what he is doing. He closed his eyes and let the water coming from the shower run to his body hoping that it will wash away his confusion. He dips his head down still trying to clear his mind….Wait…dinner, why is he feeling excited that he would have dinner with her over there?! Uh-oh…THIS IS SO WRONG!

            “Damn!” he turned off the shower and reach for the towel.

            “She’s already taken…what are you thinking?!” He utters to himself.

He knows that he needs to get it straight…he has to do something………

Sandy's side of the story

            “Just order foods from the restaurant nearby…I had the number listed on the notepad in the kitchen.”

            “Yes, Auntie.” she responded. Aunt Alicia is going to visit a friend and she’ll be back by tomorrow morning. Allyson is at school now while today is Mrs. Jo’s day off. It’ll be Jared and her in the house. Auntie told you earlier that she ordered Jared to accompany her since he doesn’t have much work to do today.

            “I’ll drive you to the port Ommoni..” Jared said.

            “You don’t have to…I could take a cab.”

            “I think it’ll be better if you would let Jared to give you a ride.” Sandy

commented.

            “Will you okay to be alone here?” Aunt Alicia asked.

            “I’m okay here. I’ll be writing anyway.” she answered.

            “Well, I’ll just send him home right away so that you won’t be alone.”

The two get in Jared’s SUV…Aunt Alicia opened the window..

            “Have a good time there, Auntie!”

            “Okay, I’ll return tomorrow morning so take care alright?”

            “Ne…” you looked at Jared.

            “Be careful on the way, Jared…” he just nod. She waved her hand as the car left. Sandy sighed. It’s been five days since she stayed here and Jared is still giving her the cold shoulder. She doesn’t know if she's just exaggerating or it’s his nature. However, she always hear from Allyson and Aunt that Jared is such a warm person. She noticed that whenever she's around, he acts indifferently. He always avoids interactions with her and often looks away. He’s casual to her alright but she could sense something is not right.

Sandy is about to step inside the house then an idea cross her mind…

Maybe I should exert more effort to get close to him..that’s right! He’s probably like that towards me because I’m not doing anything to get us closer either….Since we will be eating lunch together, I think I’ll cook…

She hailed a taxi and tell the driver to bring you to the nearest supermarket.

            “Hayley, why is Architect Kim doing here? Does he have an appointment?” Charles asked Hayley after seeing their boss in his office.

           “He doesn’t have any appointment today…the projects are doing fine and under processes..” She answered while filling her mug with coffee.

            “Then why is he here?” Chares utter to himself.

            “Who knows?” Brix joined them in the pantry.

            “You know what guys, I noticed that boss is acting weird lately…as if something is bothering him..” Hayley said.

            “Could it be because of what happened on his wedding?” Charles shares.

            “I don’t think so, I think he’s fine with it..” Brix commented.

            “There must be something wrong with the head of that woman…how could she left a perfect guy like Sir Jared?” Hayley said while blowing gently on her drink..

            “Just what I thought, you have eyes for perfect guys like us…You know Architect Kim and I are on the same level..” Brix says to her in a husky voice…Hayley coughed because of that while Charles smiled..

            “What are you guys doing here?” the three of them are surprised as they see Nelson there.

            “Team Leader!” they said in unison.

            “Architect CharlesYoon, I believe that I asked you to submit your report now right?” Nelson says with an arch eyebrow.

            “Ah, yes Team Leader…I’ll bring it to you later.” Charles exits.

            “Architect Brix Im, I understand the romance between you and Hayley but please, coffee break is almost over…” Nelson teased them.

            “Ro-Romance?! With this person?! No way! Yuck!” Hayley left while making a face.

            “What? Am I not good enough?!” Brix followed her to the office area.

Nelson shook his head. He heard them earlier. He’s also noticing Jared’s behavior nowadays like he’s dazing over something. Today, he arrived in office when it’s supposed to be his off. He invited him to eat lunch with them but he said he’s full then he kept on looking on random files pretending to be doing something. Maybe he’s really affected with what Darlene did afterall…
