Filthy Rich by Atarah Yvaine (books to read fiction TXT) 📗

"Okay, okay" I wiped the tears that is about to roll down my cheeks. I calmed myself and do inhale and exhale exercise.

I get the spoon and fork and scoop some food and bring in front of his face. He then quickly opens his mouth and eat.

I take another scoop and feed myself and I did it vice versa until we finished it all. I couldn't believe we did it. The food was good for four but we eat it all. Are we that hungry?

"It was good" I commented while rubbing my big tummy. I suddenly feel sleepy. I stand up and clean his table. I look around to find a trash bin but all of it was full of papers. I decided to go out to throw away the trash. Deus secretary approached me the moment I stepped out from the door.

"Ma'am you should have called me. Let me have that I'll throw it for you and you can come back inside" she's trying to get the garbage out of my hand but I insist.

"No, it's fine. Just tell me where to throw it." she nods and used her index finger to point at the nearest trash bin.

"Thanks" I said before walking to where the trash bin is. I throw the trash and as I was about to enter, I heard the secretary talking to Deus on the phone.

"Yes sir, I'll buy your coffee right away. Yes, she's here. Ok I'm going to ask her. Noted sir." she is looking at me and give me a cute shy smile.

"Ma'am Sir Deus is asking do you want coffee or any drink?" she politely asked while bowing her head. It felt awkward. Nobody respected me like this.

"You don't need to be polite to me. You can be normal and casual in front of me. I'm not your boss you know." she raised her head and I smiled at her giving her the assurance that it's really fine.

"But..." she's confused and looking hesitant.

"No buts and besides I'm a nobody here. I must be the one being polite to you. You are beautiful and nice. You also have a good position in this well-known company." I said admiring her and I think she's not used to compliments because her face suddenly became red.

"Thank you" she's really cute.

"You deserve it" I gave her a pat on the shoulders.

"So, what about the coffee?" she asked and yeah right, I almost forget about that.

" I love to have flat white" I answered because who would say no to coffee.

She gets her wallet and phone and preparing to leave.

"Can I come with you in the coffee shop? I want to go out" I gave her the best convincing smile that I could.

"Hmm, I'm not sure" she's looking at the door of Deus office.

My face turned into a scowl the moment I heard her answer. Where's freedom? I turned my back and face the door of Deus office.

"But let me ask Sir Deus. I hope he say yes" my mood lighten up. I face her and saw her dialing the telephone and I looked like a child here waiting for her father's approval.

"Sir she wants to come with me"

She didn’t say anything after that and just listened to the other line. I bet he's yelling at her right now or worst he is now walking near the door ready to pull me back inside.

"I promised I'll take her back, thank you" she hangs up and gives me a thumbs up.

"He said yes but he wants me to tell you this. You better behave and come back or else I'll go get you by myself" I made face with what I heard.

"Yeah, yeah come on as if I'm going out of town duh, I'm just going to go and get some coffee. OA"

We started walking to the elevator and I heard her laugh with my rants.

"You're cuter and way prettier than me." she returns back my compliments for her a few moments ago and I just smiled at her.

"Are you, his girlfriend?" I was caught off guard with that question. I swallowed a lump that is formed in my throat. I don't know what to say.

I fished out my phone from my pocket.

" Wait I got a message I need to see this. It might be important from school." I smiled at her as I excuse myself and move a little distant from her. I quickly look for Deus phone number that he used to call me a while ago. I saved his number to my contact as Mr. Unpredictable and texted him.

To: Mr. Unpredictable

Your secretary 's asking if I am your girlfriend. What I'm supposed to say?

I wanted to say no but Deus might know that and get angry at me so it's better to make sure of the best answer. After texting him I still acted as if I'm reading something on my phone.

My phone vibrated. It's him.

From Mr. Unpredictable

Tell her you're my Fiancée or my wife. You choose

I rolled my eyes at his reply. What a headache.

I returned my phone to my pocket and ready myself to answer.

"I'm sorry it's an email from university, you know practice sets and stuffs. Where are we again?"
