Iris' POV

I'm very happy that I'm doing fine now. And finally I could go back to work.

I was looking for Bob. I just wanted to thank him for the treat. I wasn't able to thank him because I was in a hurry. I left him hurriedly.

I was looking for him but he's nowhere. I felt sad. I'm very comfortable if we're together. Am I falling for him? Impossible.

I went downstairs. Then, I saw Giovann Johnson, Bob's dad. Luckily, he's not with Zeus, so I took the opportunity to ask about his son.

"Uhm excuse me Mr. Johnson?"

"Yep Iris?"

"Uhmmm.. Where's Bob?"

"Ohh Bob? He's not here. You'll never see him here ever again."

"Uhmm why?" my eyebrows met. I was confused. What happened to Bob?

"Because Zeus fired him without any reasons. I couldn't do anything, he's my boss. I highly respects his decision." he looked so sad.

Damn Zeus!

"Oh?" I was shocked.

He stared at me. "Excuse me, I have to go."

Bob called me.

:Bob?

*Oh Iris. I miss you Iris.

: I missed you too already Bob. I just wanted to thank you for the treat.

*It was just nothing to me Iris. I'm courting you. I wanted to prove to you that I deserve your 'Yes'.

:Owww. You actually deserve it.

*I'm blushing here. He laughed.

:You know what? I hated Zeus, he fired you for no damn reason.

*Actually, he's just jealous.

:What? What do you mean he's jealous?

* I'll explain to you everything if you're available tonight?

:I'm available for sure.

*Okay. Bye..I love you Iris.

:You're very funny Bob. Bye. I laughed.

Later that evening...

"What? Seriously? He's ugh!! Dumb, jerk, crazy, ruthless, bastard, stupid, a creep kind of specimen. I hated him!" we're currently here at McDonald's.

Bob told me that he went to Zeus' mansion to visit me. He also knew what happened to me, his dad told him about Zeus' plan and he told me that it was Zeus' fault why I'm lying there at his clinic's bed. He scare me with those ugly monsters. I hate the thought of Zeus lying. He said I suddenly collapsed. I felt so stupid thanking him for helping me where in fact, he's responsible for what happened to me. It was all his fault. I also got mad when he punched Bob's innocent face.

Damn him!!

"I think... He had a crush on you." Bob raised his eyebrows and ate his burger.

"What? No way... That's impossible. Men specifically Zeus, won't tolerate fat, boring and ugly girl like me." I shook my head and sipped my Mcfloat.

"No Iris, you're pretty. It's just that, you're fat. But if you'll visit gym often and do diet stuffs, I'm very sure, you'll win Miss Universe pageant. You're very smart. And correction, you're not not boring, I shouldn't have waste my time hanging out with you if you're boring. I always love being with you Iris." he's very sincere in his words.

"Awww...Thank you Bob. I don't understand why Zeus fired you. You're a very kind and honest man." I held his hands.

He frozed. He gazed at our hands.
He look so funny. I like him.

I remembered Zeus.
I gritted my teeth. You'll regret this Zeus.

I can't breath! My heart was painful.

"Iris? Iris!" he stood up and approached me directly.

"Bo-b... I...ca-can't...bre-breath." I hold my chest tightly.

"Help! Help!"

Everyone in the place watched and approached us.

There was an ambulance outside.

"Iris! Iris!"

I stared blankly at Bob. Then I collapsed.

Zeus' POV

"Zeus, have mercy on Bob, please. We're so poor, I can't handle this alone Zeus, I have 5 kids. My wife doesn't have job. My family relied on us. Please Zeus. I beg you."

Conscience overwhelmed me. Giovann was like my father, bestfriend, body guard and etc. He babysit me when I was still 3. Bob was right. I shouldn't be jealous. I actually won't date fat girls. I usually date sexy, pretty girls like supermodels Madison Smith, Ariana Jezz, Colleen Hill and more. I don't find Iris attractive at all.

"Okay Giovann. I'm sorry. Tell Bob he can work tomorrow." I shook my head.

I remembered Iris. Where is she?
I went to her office. She's not there. Maybe she's with Bob right now. Fuck!

"Where's Iris?" I asked Giovann.

" Maybe at McDonald's?" he shrugged his shoulders. I smell something fishy.

"Ok? Let's go then."

We went at McDonald's. Then my observant eyes spoted two fats laughing.

Why I'm so bitter? Is this because Madison broke up with me?
I really hate sweet couples and couples that flirts each other.
I find it very disgusting.

"Damn Giovann!"

"What?" his eyebrows rose.

"Your son is here, with Iris." I rubbed my temple.

"Where?" he was restless.

"There." I pointed them.

"Ohh." he secretly laughed.

"What's funny?"

"Huh?"

I saw Iris, holding Bob's hand. Shit!

I just sat there and watched them.
I noticed that Iris was so uneasy. She was breathing rapidly.

Damn! She perhaps didn't took her medicine.

I already called an ambulance. I knew it would happen. Then, after a couple of minutes, Bob approached her.

"Zeus, are you blind?! Let's help Iris!"

I honestly want to help Iris but I won't. Maybe she'll suspect me that I followed them anywhere.

"Nahh.. Chill. I already called an ambulance."

"You did?" his mouth widened.

"Of course."

The ambulance was already outside the building.

They carried Iris. I was nervous.

Let's see what would that Bob can do. I thought
