Love Heist

moving on

Wednesday, 10 AM , North Carolina

I knocked to marcouz door office,

Oh welcome back miss mijares! Marcouz greeted with a big smile.

Good morning sir!

So, any good news? He asked while still having that big smile

I-m im very sorry but i wasnt able to persuade him,

He pouted his lip and looked at me

I looked down

You never fail to persuade him, he just doesnt like the offer? He said

I was surprised by what he said  i felt a little fine hearing those

Its fine yna, thats what we cant control, im giving you that assignment, find another lawyer but make sure its not Selena. You can go now.

Alright sir, thank you, i will find another person, best lawyer for this

Then i immediately walked out from his office 

I went back to my face smiling and martina noticed me, i just wink at her and do thumbs up, i guess she got my message

While i was in my office, i started searching for nearby lawyers in North carolina, when my phone rang
Its a text message from steven

" have you find a lawyer?"
I replied back , "no not yet", anybody you can recommend?
He responded " man or woman?"
I replied " man"
He sent me an email address of the person

You can contact that person, i will tell him about your offer, he said

Alot of thanks steven. I said
My pleasure to help you, he responded

I put down my phone and go back to work, and started to make email and send it.

Another message came from steven
He sent a number of the lawyer he recommended

I decided to call steven instead of texting back, he right away answered the call

He's spoken voice got me still
Hello?
Uhmm i wanna thank you for everything i said
He laughed in the other line

I havent done any big yet,
He said

Its a big thing to me steven, and i thank you for it, i will call this person and i hope he wont turn me down like what you did

I didnt not turn you down, its just..

I called the lawyer he recommends and made a appointment for tonight

La italiano food restaurant 7PM

Im sitting waiting for him, after few minutes he arrived

He was shocked

He seemed so nice and friendly, i hope marcouz will be happy, i said in my mind

In bed,

I get my phone and started typing to send to steven

" i and gabriel is colleague now"
He responded " thats great! I hope you will be a good company"

Thanks, i replied

I put my phone in my chest and now my mind is thinking loud again

No hopes of being us again
