The Possessive Ice King (Dropped)

Chapter 23 TPIK

Celestine's POV

Hindi ko alam kung saan ako dinala ng mga paa ko. I just found myself here in front of this white mansion that is completely empty.

Dumungaw ako to find a sign of any humans but nobody is here, not even a single soul. I've been standing here for quite while and never noticed anyone.

Nabaling ang tingin ko ng makita ang isang itim at magarang sasakyan. It's tinted so I don't know who's inside.

Umusog ako sa tabi ng biglang kusang bumukas ang puting gate at pumasok ang sasakyan. Pumasok din ako agad bago sumara ang gate automatically.

Bumaba ang ginoo na nakita ko na din noon at pinagbuksan ng pinto ang lalaking asa kabilang side. Like a typical crazy rich Asian.

Puminta ang malapad na ngiti sa labi ko ng makita si Akira na bumaba ngunit agad ding nawala ng hindi ako nito nilingon at pumasok sya sa loob. Is he still angry if what I've said? Maybe he did not notice me?

I think he really is avoiding me and doesn't want me anymore? Well he got what he wanted from me so I guess that's it. But why do I feel hurt? Nasasaktan ba ako kasi I feel being used and trashed out?

"Lady Celestine, please come inside. He would like to see you." Yumuko ito sa harap ko as he led the way for me.

Ano daw? Lady Celestine? He wants to see me? I feel nervous at the same time excited.

Naglalakad kami nung ginoo na hanggang ngayon di ko parin alam ang pangalan dahil he never told me his name. Yet he knows my name. While we're on our way to wherever Akira is, the place somewhat feels nostalgic?! Aside from last time I was here, I feel like I've been here before.

"Please wait here. Would you like me to serve you some drinks?"  He offered politely.

"Ah no po. Thank you." Yumuko muna ito bago sinara ang pinto leaving me here in Akira's room?!

Nag init bigla ang pisnge ko ng maalala ang mga pangyayare noong gabing yun. That was my first time. I don't regret that it happened. I don't blame him for doing that, I'm kinda annoyed of myself tho, because what kind of a woman am I to do such thing sa hindi ko naman ka relasyon? He took all my firsts, is he planning to abandon me now?

I sighed, why thinking about makes my heart sinks into the depths of my chest.

Nilibot ko ang tingin sa kwarto nya na napakalaki at organized lahat. I know one of these doors are bathroom and surely Akira is inside kasi dinig ko ang tunog ng shower. This door is his closet kasi pumasok sya dito noon as he changed his clothes.

Dahil I'm a curious little feline binuksan ko ang pinto ng closet nya at bumungad sa akin ang isang boutique? No. This is his walk-in closet. It's a whole room full of his things. From clothes and suits with the shade of white, grey to dark. All are hanged carefully and neatly. Sa kabilang side is his shoes na mostly is chestnut color and black. He had few casual shoes and flip flops with the shade of white to dark. There are no other colors but black, white, grey and chestnut.

Sa gitna ng room ay makikita mo ang nakahilirang mga wristwatch. Everything are black, silver and gold. Hindi ako namangha sa ganda dahil lahat naman ay pareho ang kulay at designs. I am awed with the prizes. Lahat ng wristwatches and bracelets are from Cartier, Tiffany and Co, Rolex, Hublot, Breguet and Fils, Jacob and Co, et cetera. And these things are ridiculously expensive ranges from $20k to $5M US dollars. How rich is this guy? What the hell? Namasa ang kamay ko sa presyong nakikita sa mga relo nya kaya dali dali akong lumabas baka kasi may mawala at ako pa ang mapagbintangan.

Paglabas ko wala pa din si Akira kaya naisipan kong buksan ang isa pang pinto sa kabilang dulo ng silid. And again namangha ako ng makita ang office nya. This place is full of books na parang sa Beauty and the Beast na library but smaller version. He has his study/office table sa gitna kung saan banda ang floor to ceiling na bintana. This is why he is known a genius because he lives his life with books. These are the proof of his intelligence.
