I pointed my tongue on the side of my cheek, trying to hold my patience. I turn my head back and saw him walking towards his working tbale while removing his watch. He seem to notice that I am still around the place, making him look back and our gaze met.
He raise his brows. “You need something?”
I purse my lips out of annoyance and ignored him anyway. I head back to my room and decided to take a bath early since I could not go back to sleep anymore. This kind of routine while staying with this man is frustrating the hell out of me. I am not an early bird and will never be—well, at least that was I thought before but not now while I am living with Mister Dawson in the same roof. While I am under the shower, I did all of my body rituals and put some essentials before finishing up. I then grab the bottle of lotion that I put on the bathroom cabinet before I even slid on my robe to go out.
“How dare he call me gross when I have such a good s
I force a laugh before looking away from him. Later on, the elevator opens, showing the familiar hallway that we often walks into every morning and Mister Dawson automatically went out, leaving us without even turning around.I bump Alaric on his shoulder playfully before nodding my head. "Sure! But if my friends would be eating with me later, you can join us as well!" I exclaimed to welcome him and not feel a little intimidated about those men.He looks at me with uncertainty so I bump him on his shoulder once again before I wink at him. "Of course! They are great!"We both went tinside the room while smiling but the moment i raise my head to my friends' place, they are all looking weirdly at me then to the person in front."Let's take a seat?" Alaric muttered as he usher me to walk first in the aisle for us to reach out own seats.I walk pass to where Mister Dawson is but he is just down in his stuffs on top of the table, ignori
Mister Dawson asked Alaric to write our names in an index card with the agreed title of our thesis. When Alaric finally got to seat back down, he turn his head back with a wide smile.I move my fist up to cheer him. “The best!” I whispered before he chuckle and raise his left hand for a high-five. I return the action and even wink at him right after, showing him that he really did a good job for answering every questions that Mister Dawson asked earlier—and plus the fact that we did not even talk about this whole idea yet he still nailed it.“Smart ones in a group is quite unfair. Roberto and I are both dumb, damn it.” Rael murmured as he kiddingly give the man behind him a playful glance. The latter then kick his chair, making Rael chuckle once again before he turn to look back in front.Mister Dawson is still talking about the book he told me about from the other day and I am so close to roll my eyes at him whenever he look to my
I anxiously look to where Rael and Alaric are right now and they are both heading towards the parking lot already. I bit my lip in panic while looking around, worried that Tito Albert will arrive here all of a sudden."Aissh!" I exclaimed annoyingly while messing my hair.I take steps to follow where my friends are and with my last grip of sanity, I called Rael.He immediately turn around upon hearing me call him so I walk in hurry towards his direction."I kinda got a problem." I said while looking around, also making sure that Alaric won't hear what I am about to tell."What?" Rael stupidly asked, making me roll my eyes upwards."I said, I got a problem.""What? Can't you speak louder?" He told me almost wanting to scream in front of my face but my eyes went even wider.He groaned. "Seriously I can't hear you."I scratch the back of my head while looking at where Alaric is before faking a
"What?" I asked exasperatedly since he is being inaudible all of a sudden.He finally raises his gaze up and I suddenly feel the cold on my own toes the moment our eyes met.He sigh while pushing his temple. "I said, Dad is coming here so you have to be with me for lunch."I make a face. "Tito can probably understand it. I also have friends, okay?"Mister Dawson push his swivel chair before standing and grab his coat from the back of his chair. "Hurry up, he is calling now."I panic. "Wait, what? How are we supposed to go out?!"He look at me with a visible boredom on his face. "The door?"I groaned, tapping my forehead. "Goodness, I am not in the modd to deal with your sarcasm, Dawson."Damian look at me sideways while putting his coat on his left arm.he raise both of his brows this time while looking at me. "What? You are the one who goes stupid here. Where are we supposed to go out?
"Rael?" I said after swiping my phone's screen up to answer his call.The line seems busy and loud, making my forehead furrowed since it's still lunch time but hey does it seems like he is attending a party at this hour of the day?"Dude, I am sorry, I accidentally clicked your number!" I heard him shout.My brows formed a straight line this time. "Where are you guys at?" I turn my head around to check on Mister Dawson and Tito Albert and they are both looking at me now the moment I raised my voice.Rael chuckled from the other line. "Chill. We are just watching a live band few blocks away from the University.""Live band? At eleven in the afternoon?" I sarcastically muttered, making him laugh even more."Well, Alaric and I were driving to find a place to eat where people won't mistakenly judge us then viola!"I facepalmed. "You are just overthinking, Mansrael. Get a hold of yourself, don't get too wasted
Since Mister Dawson went out from his office first, Tito Albert an di then followed while we are still both laughing on how we made fun of his son earlier. He even pick a statement that Damian loves me so much even though I know from the start that it's all just inside ehis head because his son and I are just following a contract.When we both get out from the building, the hallway is filled with students already since it's dismissal time for lunch and I wonder where did Damian go. He automatically get lost."That kid." Tito Albert hiss before pointing the way to the parking space. " He added so I followed him immediately.There are some familiar faces whom I met along the way but good thing that they just walk passed by us after greeting me. The moment we reach the parking, Tito found the car immediately and we hinted that he is already inside of the car."I'll be sitting on the backseat."I panic a little. "What? Tito, you
"I forgot to tell you that I would be meeting my cousin this afternoon." I immediately said while looking outside the window. The phone is still ringing and I wonder why is he not answering it yet.I cleared my throat when I notice that we are almost near in the university so I pointed the side of the highway with my forefinger before looking at him. He does the same so our eyes met before he parks on the sidewalk with his brows being furrowed."Where to? I can send you there."I laughed. "Don't be such a nagger, Mister Dawson. We both know that you have some works to do and please, answer your phone, it keeps on ringing." I said before opening the car door.It seems like he just notice it the moment I told him that, making me roll my eyes. I purposely stand for a few seconds outside the door before closing it just to hear a little but he seem to notice me still standing, making him raise both of his brows.I hissed th
It took me another seconds to process who the owner of this voice is before I cleared my thorat and sat straight on the couch while transferring my phone to my other ear.“Alaric?” I asked.He chuckled from the other line. “I am sorry. I am using my friend’s phone to call you since I still haven’t got the chance to upgrade for plan, but I am just trying to ask if you are free this afternoon?”I move my eyes around the place while thinking if how will I going to tell him that I have to pack some things and starting our Thesis paper is not in my sched today. And if he wants us to start it today, I still haven’t read the materials anyway so how am I going to add ideas and parts for equal loads?“Uhm, I am kinda free but I am already inside my unit. I don’t have any class this afternoon that is why I went home early.” I said while playing the thread of this throw pillow that I am using. &ldq
