Walking to Corazon's office where he was on the phone with one of the many construction workers we employ. Corazon is a civil engineer and I am an Architecture together we created C&C Inc. We offer everything pertaining to building and design. 

He nodded at me as I came around giving him a hug and kiss on the cheeks. 

"Alright great, bye," Corazon said as he hung up and looked at me. 

"You looked stressed" he commented towards me. 

I sat on the edge of his table glaring at him. 

"Best friend loyalty, don't tell anyone? and won't make fun of me?" I asked. 

He nodded "Why doesn't my brain and vagina work together?" I snapped.

Making Corazon burst out in laughter as I punched him lightly on his arm. "What do you mean they are working together?" he asked between breaks of laughter. 

"Well, you know usually I sleep with someone and I don't want to again, even if they are good" I explained.

He nodded "Not that you sleep with that much people but yeah," he said. 

"Well my vagina is not cooperating, it says" I paused, "it says _ it wants your brother," I said while covering my face. 

This made Corazon laugh anymore to the point where he is now on the ground laughing at my expense. 

"Corazon what should I do," I said in a sweet innocent voice after he calmed down and sat on his chair. 

"So you do want him?" he asked. 

"my vagina was, you know me I don't want attachments when you get with someone they believe they own you," I said

"Your view on relationships is very wrong, but I already knew this" Corazon groaned. "I don't know how to help you, I saw you two last night, it was pretty heated," he asked. 

"Y'all saw that?" I asked. 

"Yup" He grinned. Kicking him in his knee making him wince a little bit. "To be completely honest with you," He said. "You guys suit each other and not that cliche good girl bad boy or angel and devil shit"

He was serious and I let out a defeated sigh "All my life my mother said get married you will be happy or some shit like that, that a man can make me happy, then have children live as a housewife, smile even when you're not happy. I've made it my goal never to let a man control me or my future." I said. 

"But normal people get married when they meet someone they want for the rest of their lives," he said. "Maybe my brother" 

"Corazon," I said simply "He confuses me too much, I can't concentrate, my body feels like it's on fire, that healthy to you?" I asked. 

"Its called having a romantic feeling for someone," He said simply.  

"Help me figure this shit out, how do I turn this off, I barely know him" I comically cried out making Corazon chuckle. 

"Can't love, this is too entertaining plus you don't listen to me otherwise how am I to help you?" he asked. 

Making me pout before looking at my watch, "By the way who is the meeting we have today with?" I asked as I walked out of his office

"My brother and I won't be able to make it," Corazon said. 

I glared at him before going to my office to get ready for my meeting with the frustrating man.  Picking up my i pad before walking over with Nami to the meeting.
