The rain became so heavy when we were done eating and walked out of the restaurant.
People walk along the street with umbrellas in their hands, while we stay under the canvas awning outside the restaurant. We look at the rain pouring down, the cold wind blows and wraps us up. Before we know it we are standing so close together to provide each other some warmth.
I insert both of my hands into my jeans pocket. In my head, I start to think about Jamie again.
I wonder what she is doing right now… Will she feel cold? Does the cold weather make her feel uncomfortable? Is there someone by her side to warm her up and take care of her? Will she think of me at a time like this?
…
It was the moment when I walked out of the bathroom after I cleaned my stained clothes in Juicy Punch, I saw Daniella holding my phone in her hands, she was looking at the screen…It happened then, didn’t it?Jamie’s message came in at the time when I was in the bathroom cleaning my clothes, and Daniella saw Jamie’s message come in.As she makes the payment for the umbrella at the cashier, I give her smiling face a glance.Daniella Greaves…She said she was just checking if the fruit juice that splashed across the table destroyed my phone, but the truth is...She saw
It was past midnight when I finally arrived at the garden in front of Minerva.The rain is still pouting, and I still have the black umbrella in my hand.Although it is dark, some of the lights from the buildings nearby help light my way up when I search for Jamie.It took me quite a while before I found a lady in a light pink dress among the bushes of flowers.In the pouring rain, she squats in the middle of the path, with two paper cups in zarf sleeves labeled with the logo of Coffee Bloom are seen in front of her white heels.She hugs her arms and buried her face on her knees that are covered under her wet dress. She shivers in the cold wind as the rain
The next morning, I woke up from a chair that I pulled from my dining room and placed next to the bed. I slept with my head resting on the bed and my waist bent for the whole night. I feel so sore when I sit back straight up.I give a deep yawn as I stretch my body, then a sneeze follows. I feel cold, I take a deep sniffle as I feel my nose runny, and I feel a little pain in my eyes as I rub them with my fists.I open my eyes and look at Jamie who is still in her sleep in my bed. I adjust the blanket for her, covering her shoulders. I wonder if she feels better by now?As I ponder, I pick up the tympanic thermometer from the night table and carefully insert the probe into her ear.I pressed the start button an
For the rest of the day, we didn’t go to work. Jamie stays at my place to take more rest, and I stay to take care of her.Victor invited me to a party happening tonight at his weekend house, yet I rejected his invitation.I took care of Jamie throughout the day——changing her towels, taking her temperature, making sure she took the pills, making sure her fever went down, cooking her some porridge and feeding her.During the rest of the time, I watch her favorite TV show with her, help her out coping with the phone calls from work, though that includes answering Dylan Watkin’s phone call in order to make him jealous.Time flies, the sky turns dark very quickly.
The next morning, Jamie had her butler deliver her clothes to my penthouse. She changed to her working attire before we headed to Minerva together.As she arrives in her office and sees the chocolates and bottled jujube tea that I put on her desk in the past few days, her expression turns bright, a smile cracks on her face.“Jujube tea, and tons of chocolates!” like a happy child she cheered, “How come you got me so many of these?”Complacently, I smile at her, “I believe it is time you’re on period.”Whereas Jamie blows her fringe as she picks the chocolates up, “Right. Supposingly.
Not that I am unreasonable, I understand that anyone can come to Jamie’s office, colleagues, family, friends…But Dylan Watkins? NO THANKS.If there is one last person I would want to see coming into Jamie’s office, it should be him.It must be him.It can’t be anyone else but him!Ugh! Dylan Watkins! I hate him so much! And now here he is!Damn it! What is he doing here in my girlfriend’s office!?As I feel my ears on fire and smoke co
“Hey!”I turn around and look at the person who just patted me on my shoulder, and I see...“Justin?” hey! “What’s up?”With a teaseful smirk on his face, Justin points at the door that I am standing in front of, and he mentions, “You are almost going into the wrong bathroom. Again.”As I hear him, I turn my head back and give the sign on the door a glance.“Woah.”With an ironic chuckle, I made a surprised sound——I’ve lost count of the times I was getting in, or ‘ve gotten into the wrong bathroom!
The day is always beautiful in Jamie’s office, until when it comes to the time before lunch.Like I usually do, I sit at my coffee table sorting out my job, sometimes take a peek at Jamie who is putting in all her attention in her job so deeply like a workaholic. What’s different is that she used to be my boss, while now she is still my boss, yet at the same time my girlfriend.I put a sweet smile on my face when I look at her being so passionate about her job. I feel so comforted when I see her giving all her time and effort to run Minerva, she doesn’t make herself look like she is actually running a company which belongs to the others.About that, although she discovered my true gender, she still has no idea about who I truly am, and the relationshi
