Chapter 3 3

"We're going home EARLY today, guys. So your works that have not been finished today will be finished tomorrow," said Trixie to her staff who she accompanied by clapping to get their attention.

"Yes, Ms. Trixie."

"Thank you!" He just smiled at them then he went to his office. Prepared himself to leave.

Because he is about to go to their house to visit his beloved parents, namely his Mommy who scolds him. He put aside all the papers scattered on his office table and put his drawing book back inside his backpack. The ones that are no longer needed are also discarded by him.

He often brings it, because there are times when he thinks of new shoes. He is still productive when it comes to his passion, so many admire him.

"But I am alone in this world. We are all like that," he said.

"What is that, Ms. Trixie?" He was surprised when his secretary suddenly appeared.

"What are you, Joanna! Knock first before entering my office! This boy really, oh! Why are you so surprised, huh?!" he exclaimed. Instead of being afraid of him because of his raised voice, his secretary just laughed softly. He's really used to it because he's really used to it, eh.

"Uh, Ms. Trixie, I was able to knock a while ago, but I think you're thinking about the depth. You didn't even hear it. Shall I say it again?" it said to him. He raised an eyebrow because he did what he wanted to happen. The knock on the door. Really, oh.

"What do you want?" he asked and slung his black backpack over his shoulder.

"I'll just pass on the reports, Ms. Trixie, you need to read this right away. The other branch has demands because the shoes you designed just this week hit the market," he explained to her and she nodded. It's really reliable at work.

"Alright, it's mine. I'll review it first," he said to her and took the folder he was holding. It does have a thickness.

Joanna Bardot, she is his secretary and they are the same age. One of his staff that he trusts and works hard. Not only that, he is also smart so he is really afraid of losing him. Because he knows he won't be able to find a new secretary like this. It is also really alone in the world. We are all unique.

"Are you going home too? That's new, Ms. Trixie, ah. Do you have a date today?" this is a curious question. Just go home early and have a date right away? Couldn't he just want to go home early because he's going to visit his Mommy and Daddy?

He is only slightly strict but they often work overtime in their company, which is different from what they are paid and his staff go home before him. Because he still has some paperwork to deal with and the office table must be cleaned before he goes home.

"Do you want us to work overtime, Secretary Bardot?" he asked her with raised eyebrows and she tightly closed her mouth.

"Oh, no. All right, Ms. Trixie, I'll go first!" he said then came out of his office. He finally shook his head and decided to leave his building.

His working place is far from the subdivision where his parents are staying. Because he has his own condo and he really only sleeps there. He rarely comes home to their mansion. His only younger sister, Lixia, was there.

This is just a college student. He is close to him and sometimes even asks him for an allowance even though it is the size of the allowance that their Daddy gives. He also needs to have something to be fair. He is not stingy and hates his brother. He gives what he wants. He only advises him not to be too much of a spoiled brat son and brother because that is a pain for him Trixie.

He also wants his brother to be independent so that he can learn how to live on his own and not ask for any help from their parents, especially financially. It should have known something about that earlier.

"Let's go home. Mommy is always messaging me," he said as he focused his attention on the screen of his cellphone. He snorted because of the message he read from his mother.

Where is he supposed to be or is he supposed to be on the way? Is it close or something? But what made him smile more was that he reminded him to be careful when driving his car.

"It's okay, Mommy. I'm on my way," he said and typed a reply for his mother on his keyboard.

Before he leaves, he will first pass by his favorite bakery. He often brings his favorite pandesal with tuna. That was his welcome to his parents. He got into his car and started maneuvering. But first he will go to the condo to change his clothes.

On the other hand, Wade was constantly looking at his wristwatch because he had been waiting for his girlfriend. Because he was already at the restaurant.

He had been waiting for it for over an hour but Molly had not yet arrived. It didn't say anything that its ex would be caught. Although his patience was still long, he still waited for its arrival. This is not the first time that it has been delayed in this instance.

Unless they go out together and head somewhere they want to go.

He stood up quickly and he thought it was his girlfriend who came but it turned out to be his best friend Railey.

He was wearing his chef's uniform. He didn't have a hat on his head but was wearing an apron. The attire of its profession is appropriate here. He is also married and has two children. He even became the godfather.

"You are really too excited. You thought he was the one who came so you know something else?" he said with a smile and he just scratched the back of his neck then he sat down again.

Its restaurant has its own VIP room and is located on the second floor. It is worth making a reservation because the food served at its restaurant is delicious.

"Of course, but I'm also nervous, eh. And it's also one of my dreams. The one who is forever tied to him," he said and he sat down at the other table. He even crossed his arms over his chest.

"As long as you will be happy in your married life. I also have confidence in Molly, Wade. But also because of what my husband told me, that was reduced a little. He said that the only thing in his best friend's heart is his career, how it will get better. For me, he really couldn't ask for anything more. His career is already good, he is well known and popular here," he said at length.

"I know that, Railey."

"His future with you is also secure. You can revive her without her career. He can just stay in your future house and give him a child," he said and he laughed.

"I like that too. I like the idea of us having children, but he's not ready yet," he excused. He really wanted him and Molly to have children.

"Don't tell me that for more than ten years of your relationship, nothing has happened to you?" it was a surprised question. He laughed again.

"There is, we are active in that matter but we are using protection because he doesn't want us to have children yet. Because if that happens, his career is over. I don't want him tied to something he doesn't want, bro. So I really respect his decisions," he said.
