Michy's POV
It was morning, Saturday morning to be precise so I didn't go to work. I was home and currently at the dinner table with Monae. I wasn't eating, I'm not hungry much.
All I've done since I came to sit here is stare at Monae as she ate while I pretend to do so myself. I know it's really creepy to do that but I can't help, her beauty and cuteness aren't doing anything to help matters the slightest.
She keeps pouting as she chews on her greek yoghurt avocado toast and the way she gulps down her chai tea, I find them all cute though someone will normally find it super weird.
Just staring at her all this while has made me realize how lucky I am to have her finally with me. Call me selfish but the mishap that happened to her was for a better cause which is her liberation.
Monae has finally had her freedom from those callous people, they wouldn't be able to hurt her anymore and now she can live her life freely without evil eyes watching her and mind plotting evilly against her in the dark so they break her beyond what she can bear.
Though what happened was rather unfortunate, I'm happy it did. Aside her liberation, I also benefit. No, we both benefit because we can find love with each other and live happily ever after.
I smiled sheepishly to myself, I feel like I am a girl as I put down my tea cup and continue staring at her but I quickly look away when I saw her shift her gaze to me. It would really be embarrassing if I was caught staring at her like that.
"Are you okay? You haven't eaten much, you only keep drinking your tea."
"Uh.. uh, I'm fine. I'm just not that hungry, are you done with your breakfast?"
"Do you want me for something?" She asked, raising her cup of tea to her mouth.
"Actually yeah I do." I said, looking down on my plates. What I'm about to say isn't that hard for me to say but I don't know how she's going to feel about it. I contemplated on whether telling her or making an excuse. I could say I have forgotten what I wanted to say but I decided against it and chose to tell her the truth. "I want to take you out for shopping."
"Shopping? But I have the clothes you had them deliver to me?"
"They aren't much, they don't even amount to ten and you can't keep wearing the same clothes over and over again, they'll fade or get tattered."
"I understand but you've done so much for me already. You can't keep doing them, I don't want to be a bother any longer, I'll find a work to do and take care of myself."
To be honest, I felt a little bad about what she said. Monae didn't want me doing little things that won't cost me much for her. I thought we were that close enough to have that right but I guess I was wrong, maybe I'm still a stranger to her. A stranger who's only helping her since she doesn't have anywhere going.
"Alright if that's what you want." I passed her a small smile that showed hurt, wiping my mouth with the table napkin and got up to leave.
"Where are you going?"
"My home office, just realized I had work to do." I replied her and turned to leave.
I know I was being petty and something as trivial as this shouldn't get me in this mood but I was hurt. I like her, very much and I'm willing to do anything, just anything to make her happy and feel like a queen but she doesn't feel that way towards me. It is difficult and preventing me from doing things for her makes it more difficult.
I sighed, taking the last step leading to the second floor where my home office was situated and walked towards the door.
Opening it, I stepped inside and made my way towards the window and pulled the curtain blinds to allow sunlight into the room before walking to my desk and sat on the chair.
