Bitter Sweet

Chapter 27

The next day.

3rd POV

Erin made her breakfast and packed lunch so that she won't order foods again. On her way to the office, she stop at the convenience store to buy snacks for Pharm. She smiled when she remembered his cute face. If Jess won't messed up their relationship, they may happy and probably had a child together. She shake her head as if it can make the thought of her and Tay vanished. She sighed and went to the cashier to pay the snacks.

At the office.

She greets the staff and walk to her office. Before she read all the documents, she tied her hair in a bun. It's her habit, she feel that she can focus if she tied her hair, meaning no distraction. There's knocking on the door and it was May.

'Erin, Tay want you join him to visit the project site' 'when is it?'

'In 15 min, are you ok with that?' 'Sure May'

Erin's POV

We arrived at the site. The engineer greet us. 'Welcome Mr. Tay, May and..' I chuckled 'Erin from Tul company'. 'I'm Zee, the leader of this project. I'll show you the progress of this project'

We spent about 2 hour at the project site. I'm impressed with the design and the structure of the building. Zee explained so well.

'Let's have some lunch. Shall we?' Tay asked us when we're in the car. 'Sorry Tay, I can't join. I'll take taxi from here' I smiled at him and went out from the car. May seems shock that I reject Tay's offer. Luckily there's taxi near the site, so I enter the taxi. I reject because I made my own lunch and I don't want to waste it. I also want to meet Pharm again.

Tay's POV

I saw Erin walk out and tried to follow her but she already getting in the taxi. 'Tay, may i ask something personal?' May asked me while I was driving. 'Sure May' 'Why did I feel you and Erin seem close to each other before? Is there any history between you two?. I gripped my hand and sighed 'we did. But it doesn't work out' I smiled at her 'don't worry May, I'm sure she's move on' May smiled and hold my hands. My mind still thinking of Erin, is she move on from me, why did she seem avoiding me if she doesn't had feeling toward me again. You're confusing me Erin.

I want to move on with May. But you still come back.

At the office.

Erin's POV. 

I'm on my way to the pantry with my lunch and snacks for Pharm.

'Pharmmmm, i bought snacks for you' he looked up and hugged me. 'Thank you Ms Erin' 'Pharm, can you call me P' not Ms Erin' I ruffle his hair. 'Sammy, I made lunch for us to share' I took out the container. 'Ms Erin you don't have to, i brought my own lunch' 'I made for us Sammy, just enjoy it. In fact i love cooking and just call me Erin' 'Thank you Erin'

We enjoyed lunch and laugh at Pharm's story. Why is he so cute. I pinched his cheeks and laugh. 'Sammy, why is there no other staff at this floor?' 'oh this floor only for Tay, secretary, representative of partner company and for human resource executive, that's me'.

'So other staff is on the other floor?no wonder it feels so quiet here' Erin nodded. Then, the sound of pantry door's creaked meaning there's someone entering here. It was Tay.

'sammy, Erin, you're here' he walked towards us and saw the foods. 'wow, curry' he suddenly took the spoon and eat it. 'This is tasty Sammy' ' Ms Erin cooked this, Tay' I smiled at him. He then freeze and smiled at Sammy before put down the spoon. He didn't even thank me and just continue making a coffee for himself. 

3rd POV

Sammy looked at Tay's action. It seems there is something going in his mind after she said Erin is the one cooked the curry. She looked at Erin and her expression shows a little bit sad maybe because Tay didn't thank her or praise her cooking in front of her. Erin organized the container because the lunch is almost over. Sammy will took Pharm to the nursery again.

Erin enter her office and continue her work. The clock shows 5 pm, she keep her things in the bag. Once she's at the lobby, she saw Tay and May in the same car. She tried to smile and mumbled 'at least he's happy'.
