CHAPTER 12

SYDNEY’S P.O.V

“god… Sydney…” Jelo mendesah nama saya… then… “I love you…”

DUBS…! Macam my heart just felt a strong tremor… but somehow, I know it’s just an act… saya tidak percaya Jelo can love me when she’s still hurting deep inside… because I feel the same way… I can’t love again that easily because I’m still hurting…

Tapi saya pun senakal Jelo… I’m up to her game… hahaha!

Saya menekup kedua-dua pipi Jelo, before kissing her… I smiled and whispered…
“I love you too, Love…”

I kissed her hungrily… kenapa sedap betul bibir dia ni… her lips, her tongue… everything about her… sangat sedap… kalau dia makanan dalam menu, balik-balik saya order the same menu ni…

“EHEMMM…”

Uh-oh… shit! Fucking shit! Boleh-boleh saya terlupa yang my office door tidak berkunci and I actually asked Jesty to get the files ‘now’…

“Si… Sir…!” suara Jesty gelisah… “Ta... Tan Sri…”
“you don’t have to announce my arrival, girl…” suara dad bergema dalam office saya…

I pulled Jelo up from my desk… saya merapikan her dress and tried to fix her bra…
“I... I’ll do…it myself, Syd…” terbulat mata Jelo… ketara dia ketakutan…

“dad…” saya buttoned up my half unbuttoned shirt… mana sudah necktie saya melayang tu…?

Matilah kami ni… matilah, matilah, matilah….

Jesty berjalan perlahan-lahan menghampiri meja saya with the two clients’ files… kenapa dia masih berdiri tercegat dekat meja selepas dia sudah letak the files on my table…? Mata dia membulat but not in shock… I can’t read her expression…

mana saya tau sangat expression dan perasaan perempuan… kalau saya boleh membaca perempuan, tidaklah Lilia kahwin lelaki lain…

sambil Jelo fixing her bra, saya combed her hair with my fingers, making sure she’ll look presentable in front of dad… erk, walaupun adegan tadi sangat unpresentable…

her lipstick yang terkeluar dari garis panduan bibir dia buat hati saya rasa kelucuan… adakah patut saya terkekeh geli…

“why are you laughing…?” Jelo looked up at me, whispering through gritted teeth…

“ooppss… sorry… your lipstick bah…” I wiped the stain of her lipstick from the sides of her mouth with both my thumb…

Jelo tersenyum…
“then you…?”

“why me?” saya tanya membalas senyuman dia…
“you look like Joker…” she giggled… then she rubbed my lips with her thumb…

Hahaha… so I have lipstick stains on my lips juga…

“sudah? Syok bercinta?” uh… did we forget about dad? Macam saya mau ketuk kepala saya on my desk oh… “girl, daripada you standing there like that, please pick up tu barang-barang yang jatuh…”

Cepat-cepat Jesty tunduk dan memungut segala kertas, file and some stationeries yang terjatuh masa saya membaringkan Jelo atas meja saya…

“Dad…” saya menggaru kepala saya…
“Uncle…” Jelo looked guilty… deii, it’s not her fault pun…

Dad menaikkan tangan dia… signaling us to shut our mouths…

“sudah?” dad looked at Jesty yang a few seconds ago sudah meletakkan barang-barang saya atas meja... Jesty mengangguk, terkejut dengan dad’s booming voice… “keluar lah…”
