keeping the distance

Chapter VI

Ann has been harrassing me for information about boss, she wants to know what impress him, what he like and she been texting and texting it was starting to drive me crazy.

I mean I'm to be supportive
But how can I be, when I'm thinking I wish boss won't notice her. Regards to that she wants me to make a trio date to the movies with them so that boss will get used to her and be comfortable to being around her but I've been making up excuses trying to avoid this but I couldn't keep the pretense of being busy forever, here we are, it's decided tomorrow is the days my heart can either be broken to shrands or continue bleeding in silence under the illusion that one day I might have the courage to act. But for now we are going to the movies.

I arrived at the mall rather than going straight to the cinema I decided enter ice cream shop first , I bought some buttercup ice cream scoops then decide to sit in the table again, instead of heading towards the cinema. I knew going to the cinema meant my crucifixion and I was not ready to for it so I might as well prolonged my little time that I have and keep my illusions that maybe boss might not find her attractive meticulously discover my love.

Once I was done and after receiving some text from both boss and Ann that they have made it to the cinema I decided to head there as well bragging my feet.

I find both of them chatting up a storm to my disappointment, I hide it by smiling heading towards them the soon to be couple they were laughing, I guess from something Ann said and pointing at the posters or showing movies on the theatre. "Hey guys " Ann turn and throws her arms at me and smile while boss turn and insert his hands in his pocket and half smiles at me, geez tough day no hubby jokes today, I thought and heart breaking a bit.

"So what movie are we interested in " I ask Smiling at my friends, if I being honest they would be great together, Danm where did that thought come from. 
"I was think a animation because they are fun to watch no arkwardness " Ann suggested, I turn to boss for his views he just nod " how about "adorable" so it was decided.

I went to buy the tickets boss and Ann went to buy the snacks.

Boss brought me creamy chives flavoured popcorn and still water with a chocolate balls park from calbarry those balls have mint bits inside in them taste really great.

They bought their own snacks and beverages as well as popcorn. We're sitting in ray E so once we reach our ray, I decided to wait for boss to enter first and then Ann so once we find our sits that will be our sitting order.

Boss keeps on giving me bits of glares which were confusing me, did he not like Ann.

I was confused Ann was chatting  away animatedly referring to both of us really not concerned about weather we reply or not, In the movie the was a scene that the girl decided to take the  .... To mount avarest by jumping into the ship" would you risk everything to follow your heart" Ann asked and she stopped talking I guess she finally wanted our replies. Ann turns to look directly at me and the words got stuck in my throat.

My mind screams this is your chance to come clean with her, I know she would understand that I've been in love with boss and knowing her she would back off and be supportive to me before it's too late. Rather then hiding and end up hurting all of us in the end. But I didn't. I choose to laugh it off because I'm not brave enough to risk losing neither of them from my life, without putting to much thought to my answer I brush her question off  knowingly I'm losing the perfect opportunity. I concentrate on the screen "this is a animation, nothing in reality is ever easy to achieve the are always  various issues to consider and the is no way a creatures that big would go noticed in the real world also being a stoleaway is never that easy. Boss reply was short and direct" it depends on the endgame, do you think the risk will be worthy. That shut me up.

I couldn't concentrate on the movie anymore  his statement is being repeated in my mind over and over again" do you think the risk will be worthy" . Is boss love worthy the a chance of losing him forever.
Will I be happy knowing I no longer has this secret and I trust him enough to risk it all for him that love right risking your heart with a hope that you might not be alone that the person you admire and care for feels the same. I should have faith and hope that he might reciprocate this love.

How the hell did a movie out with my friends turn into a soupe opera in my head. While I'm contemplating my decision Ann shakes me that when I noticed the people leaving at the theatre and the credits on the big screen. While leaving boss is so distant from me it was scaring. He only spoke so little towards me and didn't maintain eye contact just bit of glances now and then quick ones too.

We handed towards a restaurant to eat then go to arcade games shop afterwards that the plan. We are headed towards pizza hut.

Boss saw a toilet sign and decided to go.
So me and Ann decided to sit down in the little sit in the middle next to the bins.

Ann was quite so I thought this is my chance again "Ann the something I would like to tell you"

The words are dissolving in my head I couldn't seem to form them and she looking intensely at me. What should I do ??
Think IDOT ,think
