Tempted By Your Touch. Chapter 55
DIEGOI remained sitted with my eyes straight at the door, patiently waiting for Pedro to step in."If I had a weapon, I'll send it right through him. Come on Diego, just pull yourself together."I sighed over my thoughts, taking my gaze off the door. The moment I did that, my door came open. That sent me taking my attention back at the door, just to see Pedro stepping in with a smirk across his face. "Diego, my best buddy.""What are you doing here?" I questioned, rising to my feet."Oh come on, Diego. That's not how to greet your further brother in law. A what's up would have been better."He grinned once again, shutting the door behind him while stepping in fully.His face alone was beginning to irritate me. In fact, everything about him was irritating.I glared at the statement he had made, of me being his future brother in law. He's mad if he thinks I'll consider him as such.I watched Pedro's arms come out spread, saying, "How about a bro hug like old times?"My brow came li

DIEGO"He knows now. That bastard knows!" I paced about in my office, unable to let go of the argument between Pedro and I."I will kill him if he does anything funny. He won't like me when..." I paused, thinking about Carla.This left me feeling weak."Damn it. This is my fault. I should have controlled myself before Pedro and found a way to tackle the truth, but I went ahead and blurted things out of anger. "I had my back leaning against the wall with my hands covering my face.Images of Carla came flowing in my head. Our last sex and her words that day at the store room also filled my mind.She said it clearly that day that she didn't want anything that would lead the public into knowing about our secret, and Pedro knows the truth.He had seen us that day at the park and we didn't even know."Carla," I uttered her name, feeling guilt and a strong wave of care for her safety, engulfing me."I have to see her. Yes, I need to tell her about this. She needs to be aware of Pedro's sche

CARLAOver lunch, Mom, Diego, and I, laughed over a funny tale shared by Mom about her time as a teenager.It got me almost choking on my food, if not for the glass of water beside me that saved my life."I'm telling you. Anytime I remember that period, I always ask myself if I was okay or not. Why will you put a knife in the microwave?"Diego and I laughed at her loudly."Now I know where my craziness came from?" I chuckled out, placing my hand on the table.Only to feel my finger touching Diego's. That got me looking his way to notice his eyes had fallen on me already.A calm smile crept across his face as he drew his hand away from mine, facing my Mom back.I didn't know how to react to that. I just directed my attention back at Mom, with my eyes slowly stealing a glance at him."He looks more relaxed than before. By now he would have taken hold of my hands or teased me," I viewed, sensing a change in Diego.Not too long... "I should take my leave now," Diego decided, about rising

CARLA"That annoying Jessica! I'll make her regret ever challenging me," I groaned out with detest.I could still feel my whole body vibrating with intense anger over Jessica's nonsense.After she challenged me, I immediately joined the queue and signed up for the audition.My name fell among those that will have theirs in four days time.Despite seeing that I signed up, Jessica still had the audacity to mock me, saying I'll break before that day even reaches."I wouldn't have joined the audition, but she needs to be put in her place once and for all! " I vented out to Pedro, who sat next to me.He was just silent all through, nodding his head at my word."I need to get my strength fully for that day. What do you think?" I asked, turning my head to face Pedro."Hmm, " He hummed, nodding his head with his eyes on his phone.It almost looked like he wasn't listening to me.And to confirm that I was right, I noticed an earpod in Pedro's ears. He wasn't listening to me at all!This left m

CARLAI still had my eyes shut, telling Diego what I wanted from him.And honestly speaking, I needed someone beside me at the moment, and he's the only one I could think of.I still had my legs tucked close to my chest, patiently waiting to hear his response to my request."You want me?" He asked, his voice sounding cool and touching.My lip curved to the side, feeling my cheek burning up slowly.I nodded, even though he couldn't see what I was doing, saying to him, "Yes, I do. The... House is looking lonely and quiet. I could use a buddy at this moment. So, what do you say?"My legs came down, crossing against the other with my right hand rubbing my neck, with a smile engulfing my face.I couldn't explain how I was feeling at the moment, but I know I was feeling good just talking to Diego. But just when I thought I'd get what I wanted... "I'm sorry, Carla. I'm quite busy at the moment," He said, turning down my request.That got sadness taking over me in no seconds. I listened to

CARLAI had my eyes following Diego, who walked up to the couch, staring at the bowl of ice cream I kept on it.He took a look at me, wearing a quizzical expression on.I dimmed my eyes at him, asking, "What? Never seen an ice cream in your life before?""I have. Just haven't seen a frustrated lady like yourself. One who has nothing to do but sit here, watch a horror movie, and bury herself in a big bowl of ice cream," He teased me, letting out a chuckle.That tongue of his. I thought he has lost the gift to insult me?Whatever way, it feels good.Not wanting to show the smile that wanted to escape my lips, I said, acting all tough, "You can laugh all you want, Diego. At least I was doing something." I glowered at him.I saw Diego smirk with his eyes falling on me. That sent an electric wave around my body with my eyes leaving his point. "Is it me or is the room suddenly turning hot?" I waved my hand at my face for breeze.With the corner of my eyes, I could see Diego coming my way.

CARLAI woke up to the sound of my alarm. That got me stretching out wide, letting out a yawn."What a night?" I gaped out, dimming my eyes open.When I looked around and noticed I was in my room, my eyes grew large at once, with my head hovering around in astonishment."How did I get here?" I jumped out of bed, but fell back on feeling my eyes turning."Wow. Easy there, Carla. Just relax," I said to myself, relaxing back on my bed.I lifted my gaze to take a quick look around my room."But I was with Diego last night. Did he bring me here?" I wondered, seeing that as the only explanation currently."He must have brought me here when I fell asleep deeply. Otherwise I would have felt when he was carrying me if I wasn't," I believed, knowing myself.Once my eyes came all calm, I got out of bed, making my way out of the room.My mind on Diego, wondering if he had left already.It was six in the morning and I was sure Mom would be back home."He must have gone," I assumed, stepping into t

CARLAMy eyes were still locked with Diego's.He kept staring at me without making a blink.I could feel my body turn hot just looking at his entrancing face. It got my heart swelling with a temptation to brush my lips against his cheek one more time.But I had to pull myself out of this thoughts, breaking the lock between us.I gave a smile, looking the other way, saying, "Wishing you good luck at the office. It's a boring environment, so..."I directed my gaze back at Diego again. He still had his eyes on me, and that got me feeling hot even more."So be a good... Em... Do well at the office," I stammered, saying whatever that came to my mind, with my eyes looking elsewhere than his face.I was beginning to sweat within.That's when I noticed a smile across Diego's face from the corner of my eyes. That got my attention once again.I couldn't have a long look away without turning back to stare at him. It's almost like he had a spell or something that keeps calling my attention his wa
