The Bestfriend [R18+ on going]

Chapter 18

-NOT YET-

Karina's POV

One word that describes his office is 'glamorous'. Everything is in the right places. His desk is clean and all of the stuffs in there was neatly arranged. My eyes roamed around the room even more and I noticed that there's no even pictures nor paintings on the wall or the shelves. It looks so dark and yet it's screaming perfection like the person who owns it.

I saw a girl typing something on the hallway a bit far from his office a while ago. Maybe that's his secretary or something. Or something– does he found someone for him already? And why do I care?

Clearing his throat, my eyes blinked and looked at his grey cold eyes. He asked huskily, "How are you?" Yeah, how am I? Besides the large chance that I'll be spending my night on the streets, my knees hurts and still bleeding and my clothes is drenched with both my tears and sauces from the foods that I should've serve.

"I-I'm fine.." I stuttered, averting my eyes away from him as he looked at me intensely. Gosh, why am I having this feeling again?–no, is he the one who's inside the car yesterday?

I was met with silence as I shifted on my feet uncomfortably then winched. My knees really hurts, I just hope the cuts won't leave scars on my skin.

"Is it hurts?" He questioned, his voice so dark and firm that I can't help but to shudder under it.

Nodding my head slowly, I whispered. "Y-yes." Raven's jaw clenched and I bite my bottom lip nervously. Is he mad? Of course he's mad, you messed up Karina. In his hotel.

He opened his mouth but before he could utter a word, I spoked and grumbled meekly, interrupting him. "I-I'm sorry I didn't mean t-to fail on my job. I-If you want to f-fire me then I-it's okay besides I-it's my fault anyways so–"

"Sit down." What?

I looked at him confusedly as he pursed his lips in a thin line then gestured me to sit on one of the chairs in front of his desk.

Walking towards the chair slowly with my wounded knees, I finally sat down and looked away from him. He's so close I could literally smell his scent. It's undescribable but definitely masculine.

So what now?

Should I speak to him like in the old days?

Should I hug him?

Cry?

Be happy because finally he's here? Or just shut up because I don't really know how to interact with him right now. I didn't expected this day that we're gonna be reunited, after so many years. My best friend is back.

My head snapped back at him when he stood up from his desk then went inside a door that's connected inside this room. Moments later, Raven came out of the room with a box in his hand then sat down on the other chair, across mine. If he's close a while ago, now he's too close that our knees are almost touching.

I inhaled sharply when he rubbed the cotton with alcohol on my wound without any warning. His eyes are too focus on the wound that he's cleaning while I'm here, biting my lips so hard to suppress my threatening sobs, the rim of my eyes are already filled with tears and I know that any moment they'll gonna fall.

After cleaning my wound, he wrapped it with a band aid then settled the first aid kit on his table before looking at my eyes with his hypnotizing orbs. His eyes seems darker now compared to before, the shine on it has faded.
