Someone Somewhere Is Made For You

#26 He loves me!

Michael.

I went through the list of people who had transferred money to Rijo's account and his call log details.

"This is it?" I am disappointed to find the unfamiliar names.

"Yeah, Apparently Rijo had been doing this for some time now; he made a fortune out of his hacking skills," Jeeva explained.

I turned back to my system, "Then I guess I need to recover the data first," I said and Jeeva gave me an odd look.

"You are very involved in this case, we dealt with more serious cases and you never gave a damn."

"This guy targeted my girlfriend thrice, Of course, I would be-hey-" I stopped as Jeeva nearly spit out the water he had.

"Your...girlfriend? You have a girlfriend!?" He looked shocked.

"You made it sound like it is impossible," I turned back to my system and started to type.

"It is impossible! I thought you only know coding and things! Who is this poor girl who fell for a cold-hearted person like you?"

"You are nosy."

"And you are too full of yourself," he retorted and turned back to his work.

Rijo had done a good job wiping everything out and I knew that it would take a lot of time and effort for me to restore it.

Soon, it was 9 pm and I called Jenni to inform her that I would be late and not to wait for me.

"Boy! This is more work than I imagined." Jeeva complained from time to time.

My phone beeped and I took it out.

"Did you sleep yet?"

I smiled at her message.

"Why? You have any other "doubt" regarding the project to ask me?"

"You are very insensitive." she sent me a smiley and I chuckled at that.

"Someone liked me even with this attitude." I typed back and added a smiley.

Okay, I admit that this is my first time adding an emoticon in one of the personal messages.

I had thought it to be childish, but I see that it's quite...interesting...

"I didn't just like you," she typed back. "I love you, Michael."

I stared at her message. My heart tugged at that simple sentence. I felt happy that she was not holding back.

I really admire how open she was with me. For someone like me who was always afraid to let people inside, she was everything I could hope for.

"Are you there?" Her message came again. "I just don't want you to forget our promise today."

Did we make a promise today?

"We said we won't retreat or run away," she continued. "No matter how difficult it is..."

Looks like she is still worried about her Mama.

"I have never been afraid of facing difficulties, I am persistent, and I won't give up easily." I typed back.

There was no reply from her even though she had read my message.

"Don't worry about your Mama," I typed again. "I will stay with you no matter how difficult it is," I typed again. "I am ready to wait as well."
