Chapter 1
Klio's Pov
"congratulations!!!..." we all screamed. I finally graduated from college with a BSBA. After several years of hard work, I was able to achieve my dream of graduating and that was because of my mother's tireless support. Yes, mom, she is the only one who insists on working so that I can finish my education.
I know if you are asking why not dad. It's sad to think, it's been a long time since dad disappeared from my mom and me. The unknown cause of his death. Even to this day, there is still no news about who shot my dad. But mom and I don't lose hope, because we know the day will come when the real culprit will be caught.
My thoughts were interrupted when suddenly someone shouted in the distance.
"Besssss!!!..." Someone shouted so I looked at it. I only recognized who it was when I saw his face. Saichi is the only one of my younger siblings here in the province.
"Ohh Sai, did you run away?....what's the matter?" I asked him but he was still gasping for breath which made me laugh at him. He frowned.
"It's because of you that I can run hee!..." He said so I laughed again because of his poker face.
"Ahh just...I'm here to tell you that your mother sent you there" he said while pointing to the parents who were sitting there. I also saw which Mierna, Sai's mother. Sai's mother and mother are also close, so we have been friends since childhood.
I nodded in agreement and started walking, Sai followed.
"Ahh wait Leo, where is Luke?... Did you see him here? Did he go home?" He just asked me. Even I didn't see Luke so I answered him.
"I don't know either. I didn't see him either, maybe he went home first. Come on, maybe our mom was waiting for us there" I told him while pulling and he sent the tow if that was the case.
(Kringggg....) My alarm sounded causing me to wake up and look at my watch.
"Sh*t!" I exclaimed that I thought I slept that long. I know it's 8 in the morning and I need to find a job.
It's been a week since our graduation so here I am now preparing to look for a job. It's time for me to help mom. I will repay all his sacrifices for me, that I finish the course I took.
Then take a shower and do my daily routine. I came out of my room at the same time as I went down the stairs, so my mother saw me sweeping. He looked up at me.
"Ohh child... you're awake, eat... I cooked a hot dog there..." Mom said and continued what she was doing.
"Ma..." I called her. So he turned to me.
"Do you need anything son?" He said questioningly.
"I'm leaving to look for a job... It's a shame because the course I finished will be used somewhere else. And so I can make up for your sacrifice. Now I'll be the one working for us," he said happily, causing him to smile. mom because of that.
"You're really young... You really inherited from my father. Ohh, go ahead and eat so you won't be hungry while you're looking," he said, so I nodded as I went to the kuaina to start eating.
Matthew's Pov.
"Good morning mom" I said to mommy when I got to the kitchen to have breakfast... I have to go to the office early so I can finish a lot of paperwork.
"Good morning son, Matthew" he said back.
"How is your search for a new secretary going?" Suddenly, mom asked a question that made me stop for a while to take a bite to make sure she was answered.
"No one wants to be my secretary, mom" he said, not wanting to.
"And because of you... that's why no one wants to apply for a secretary because of your attitude..." He preached. It's not a wedding if I like this. I'm not nice to people I don't know anymore. Especially to my employees.
"I know mom.... I'm done, I'm living now" I said while taking my briefcase when suddenly mom spoke again.
"You're brother is going home, he's going home to the Philippines this week, I hope you treat him better Matthew, you're not a teenager anymore" when he said that I couldn't help but clench my hand. Because of that memory that I wanted to forget for a long time.
"I'm living see you later bye" I said goodbye with a kiss on his cheek.
"Take care son" he said before I finally got out of the house and went to the parking lot of my car.
I was just thinking that my brother would come home... I can't help but be angry, I know it's been a long time but why can't I forget?
"F*ck!" I shouted before driving the car to my company.
"I'm sorry sir.... there's no space according to our manager I'm so sorry" said the woman. I was sad when he said that. It's our third company, but at least one has a vacancy, but there is none.
"Ahh, is that so miss.... Alright, I'm going, thank you" I just said. So I left with sadness.
"Hist..." I exclaimed. I've been looking for 4 hours but I'm really disappointed. No vacancies. And I'm hungry. I'd better go home.
.
.

.
.
[At home]
"Oh son?... Are you looking for something?" Mom was happy to meet me.
"My God, I looked at me today...they said they don't have any vacancies. That's why I haven't found a job yet" sad if he sat down on the sofa.
"Hyst, you're young... That's the way it is, son... Not everyone who graduates can find a job right away," mom said, so I nodded in agreement.
"Ahh ma?...do you have food?... I'm hungry because I'm looking for a job," Kopa said, causing mom to laugh.
"You're really young... Ohh, go ahead and eat there. I cooked some fried fish for you a while ago" he replied so I didn't waste time I quickly went to the kitchen to eat because that's where the stomach is ache really came from me.
Matthew's Pov.
"Pre, don't you really intend to return to our group?...and what is your real reason for not leaving there" suddenly asked Jimmy, one of my friends since high school.
"You don't need to know" was the answer.
"I'm busy you can leave now if that's the only reason you came here to disturb me" he said a little annoyed. I don't want to because when I work I get teased.
"You haven't really changed" he exclaimed, but I didn't hear much, which made me look at him very seriously.
"What did you say?" It's serious.
"I said you haven't really changed in the past years, it's as if your attitude has gotten worse, your moody and strict nature, so your employees are undeniably afraid of you, even if you're a secretary, they don't want to apply because they're afraid of Matthew," he said.
"I don't have a reason to change my attitude" is the answer.
"That's the reason you were divorced by---" he didn't finish what he wanted to say because I interrupted.
"Don't you ever mention that name, or else you won't be able to leave my company completely" he said angrily.
"Okay okay... No" he said giving up while raising both of his hands.
"Okay, I'm leaving... Maybe you'll eat me. You're really scary Matthew" he said together and quickly left. So I continued what I was doing.
I am now in my room. After I sister, I went straight to my room to rest because I decided that I would search again tomorrow.
So while I was lying on my bed. I was just scrolling through Facebook when suddenly someone called so I answered it.
"Oh Sai, did you get called?" I asked on the other line.
"Where were you earlier? I went to your house earlier but your mom said you weren't there because you were looking for a job?" He said more
"You're right, I'm looking for a job so I can contribute to the house" I told him.
"You're right, it's time for us to make up for our parents..." He said.
"Ahh, well, I have something to tell you," he said so that I was excited about what it was, maybe because our friend has something to say.
"Oh what's that?"
"I know a company that needs a secretary" he said.
"Oh done?" No appetite to say.
"Why don't you take it?" he said.
"I'm sorry... The course I took to get there was not a secretary." Said cup.
"Ehh... This is a big salary, even bigger than a business administration" he said.
"Then how much is the salary?" I asked if the salary was really big.
"Ahmm, they say it's ₱30,000 a month"
My eyes widened when he said that... It's big but I know how difficult it is to be a secretary
"It's a big deal, but I don't know that job," I reasoned.
"stupid... Your job is simple.. you're the only one who puts the schedules in his meetings like that.. I applied too" he said.
"What is the name of that company?"
"Ahmm wait I'll look for it.... Ahhmm what's written here is 'M. Corporation' that's all.
"The owner of that company seems to be really rich.
"You're right, it's one of the richest companies in all of Asia. That's why I applied right away because you know if you're rich, the salary is big hehe" he said with a laugh.
"Then... Go ahead and try to apply" I said because the opportunity is a waste... Maybe this is the time to help mom.
"That's good bro.. I'll send you the link heheeh can't wait to join a company together.
"Alright..." I said as I hung up.
I hope I'll be lucky.. Mom doesn't want to work anymore at her age... So I'll do everything to make our life stable.
After a while someone texted my cell phone so I opened it. That's the link if you want to apply online, so I started answering that.
Klio's Pov.
I'm here in the room putting away the things that are scattered on the floor. I don't want it to be as if mom is going to clean it. I can do something like this so he did it.
After everything is fixed, I will go to the bathroom to take a shower. After that I got dressed like a house. I'm sure I'll go out.
After I went down the stairs, I immediately went to the kitchen where I saw mom cooking a dish. I went over there to find out what dish he cooked.
"Good morning mom" I greeted with a kiss on her cheek.
"Good morning son, wait for it, it will be cooked soon and we will eat" he said so I sat down at the dining table.
"Ma'am, what are you cooking?" I asked mom. I don't know how to cook that's why I'm asking.
"Ginataag night, don't you want that?" When he said that, my stomach suddenly growled.
"Yes, of course, you cooked heheh" Kopa joked so mom smiled.
After it was cooked, we started eating. Because mom cooks well, I've eaten a lot of rice so I'm full.
Matthew's Pov
"Tina, can you buy me a coffee?" I ordered Tina. One of my friends in high school is the same as Jimmy.
"Wow, the king can give orders straight away..." He continued to blurt out. I just ignored it. I just felt him stand up at the door.
"What is coffee?" he asked.
"Just like before and make it fast" Kopa added. So he smirked.
"Yes Boss" he said as he left my office.
The reason why that girl is here is the same as Jimmy, they want me to return to the group, but my answer is still the same. I have no plans to go back at the moment. Besides I'm a busy person, it's not time for me to go back to them.
While I was typing on my laptop, my phone suddenly rang, so I answered it.
"You're brother is on the way to the airport Matthew. Follow him there" mom suddenly said.
"Why do I need to pick him up? Don't we have a driver to pick him up? Look, I'm busy here. I don't have time to waste time on unnecessary things" he said absentmindedly, knowing that this would make mommy angry.
"Matthew!...how many times do I have to tell you that be good to your brother" he shouted.
"Tskk... I need to end the call, I have some work to finish mom" he was asked to answer because he hung up.
Suddenly the door opened and Tina entered.
"Oh, here's your coffee," he said while handing it to me.
"You can leave now, and thank you for the coffee" he said with no appetite while focusing on what I did.
He didn't say anything and went out.

Chapter 2
Matthew's Pov.
"Monica, before you go home, please clean my office. I'm leaving now" I told her. He was assigned to be my temporary secretary for now.
"Yes sir got it po" he answered so I didn't waste any more time and left at the same time as I entered the elevator.
After I arrived at the company's parking lot, I immediately looked for my car, got in and started driving.
.
.
.
.
.
.
"I'm home" I shouted when I entered the house.
"Oh Matthew, it's good that you're home, your brother was waiting for you earlier" mom greeted me so suddenly my mood changed.
"I'm going upstairs mom" I said as I jumped upstairs.
After I got to my room, I immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower, and after taking a shower, I dressed in boxer shorts. I'm used to wearing this at home.
After getting dressed, I was about to go out when I was suddenly stopped when someone spoke.
"Brother...you're back home" he said but didn't look at her.
"How are you bro?... I know you miss me--" he didn't finish what he was going to say when I suddenly interrupted.
"Can you please stop being nice to me?!" Annoyed as he said so he stared at me.
"Do you think I miss you too?..is that what you want to know from me? My answer is No!...I'm really happy that you're not here...and now you're back as if you're innocent. . so while I can still take it easy, Don't try to talk to me that way coz I don't like it" she said to him while leaving him in that place.
"Ohh Matthew...have you seen your brother?...come on let's eat"
"I don't know" he didn't feel like answering and walked straight into the kitchen.
"Sai, are you sure this is the village?" I asked him while we were in front of the tallest building I've ever seen in my whole life shems.
"I don't know, but this is the address on the text of their company." Answer.
"That's right, let's go in" I said pulling him.
As soon as we entered the entrance, someone immediately greeted our girl.
"Hi how can I help you ma'am?" he asked.
I didn't explode, but my attention was focused inside. You can't help but be amazed at the beauty of their design.
"Ahh, we miss the one your company sent for a personal interview," said Sai, who answered the woman's question because I couldn't lose sight of my innocence because of the beauty.
"You can wait there by the chair, I'll go see the manager here." He said so we nodded at the same time and went to the seat he was talking about.
After a while someone came to our girl in uniform.
"Who is Klio's Madrigal?" He asked so I stood up and answered.
"I am ma'am?" It's a bit embarrassing to say.
"Sir waited a while ago, go see him in his office." He said. So we've been waiting for a while now. It's me.
"Ahhmm where is his office?" I ask because I might get lost here.
"Take the elevator there, it's straight to the boss's office and you miss. Saichi?" He still asked me.
"Yes ma'am" he answered.
"Follow me and you Mr. Madrigal, you need to hurry" he finally said while continuing to walk.
"Well, let's meet later, good luck," Sai said as he quickly followed. So I started walking to the elevator as soon as I got in there.
[Thing...]
After the elevator opened, I got out and walked to the door.
'maybe this is their boss's office' he said to himself.
I immediately knocked on the door for the third time when suddenly someone spoke.
"Come in" said the person inside so I opened it and entered slowly.
"What's brought you here? And who are you?" He said directly while his sister focused on what she was doing.
"Ahmm.. I'm the one who will apply for secretary?" I said quietly because it's because of the look of sir. It's scary how strict it looks and how moody it is.
"Okay?...give me your papers" he said so I quickly handed them to him. He accepted it and opened it to read my resume.
"So you're Klio Madrigal graduated as BSBA" he said.
"Ahmm yes sir" I answered because it was true.
"Okay you're hired, start your work now" he said listlessly, concentrating on what he was doing.
But I, still standing, don't know what to do first.
"What else are you doing? Go to your table" he said while pointing to the right. So I came there.
"Ah sir... What should I do?" I asked him.
"What does a secretary do?... Don't tell me you don't know?" He said seriously.
I nodded slowly.
"F*ck...just tell me what schedules or meetings I need to attend this morning" he said annoyed.
That's why I was scared, because it was my first job that made him angry.
So I started reading what was posted on the computer. Aunt wrote down the schedules that she had to go to.
Now I realize, it's not easy to be a secretary.
Klio's Madrigal Pov
I've been here for three weeks as a secretary, it can be said that I've learned a lot, so I don't just ask the boss what I should do because I know something. So I will go to him now.
After I arrived at his place, the busy boss immediately appeared to me.
"Ahh sir, you have a meeting with Mr. Tan this 10 am" I told him so he stopped.
"Okay just go I need to focus" he pushed me away. I'm not surprised anymore because I'm used to sir being like that to me in the past three weeks. I got used to his attitude. But I'm not in a position to get angry because he's my boss and I'm just his employee.
"Okay sir" I said. I would have left suddenly if I forgot that his mom had something to say. So I looked at him again.
"Ahmm... Sir, your mom told you that you have to go to dinner this evening, that's all I'm leaving, sir" he said goodbye and left for good.
When I came out I just blew out the air. "Hysst I wish I could handle this man's attitude" I exclaimed to myself as I walked to my office.
Yes, I have my own office here. I thought we were the only one, hyster.
"Sir, maybe this is the restaurant he was talking about where you can meet" I said to him while pointing it to him.
I don't even know why he took me with him, but what he said to me before we left is still in my head.
"Sir, are you sending me here," said Kenneth? I asked him. Kenneth is one of my friends here at the company.
"Yes we need to go it's already 10" he said so I was surprised.
"Ahh sir do I really have to come?" I wonder if I asked him. Is it really like this when you're a secretary like you're submissive?
"Of course, as my secretary, you need to remember what we all talk about" he said so I nodded.
"And remember this, when we get there, don't be rude, be professional and make sure I'm right next to you." He said as he walked out. Surprise appeared on my face.
"What are you waiting for, let's go in" he said while holding my hand and dragging me inside. There really is no way.
"Ohh Mr. Hellington you're here, it's good that you arrived" we were greeted by a man in a coat. I don't expect you to meet the boss's age.
"Yes Mr. Tan, I won't come here if there is no reason" sir didn't want to answer as he sat down in the next empty seat and I just stood next to him. He didn't say I wouldn't leave his side so he did it because I might get killed.
Klio's Pov.
"I have a project that I want to do this week Mr. Hellington and I need your company to be part of that project" said Mr. Tan.
I am still here next to sir Hawang listening to what they are talking about.
"Ohh is that so,. What project is that?" Sir doesn't care.
"I'm planning to make some hospitals in rural areas that are far from the emergency hospital so that, they won't have any more difficulties." Mr. answered. Tan.
"Nice idea, okay." Sir answered.
"Okay good, and by the way who's that someone beside you?...is that your new secretary?" He suddenly asked looking at me. I bowed down because of shame.
"Yes, that's my new secretary why?" Sir asked seriously.
"Nothing... He's cute though" sir tan suddenly said making my face red, the first time to be told something cute.
"Really,. Okay we need to go, just send some details about your plans" sir suddenly said let's go together and grabbed me by his side while dragging me outside.
"Sir... just wait" I said but he kept pulling my hand until we were in his car.
"What did you do? And you were really cute in Tan village?" He suddenly said that shocked me.
The cute one he says. I bowed down because of shame and then they said I was being cute? It's intense.
"Sir, I'm not making him cute." My reason is because it is true. I think he's mad at me.
"I told you being professional, it's just that Bob* you're also deaf" he said as he got into the car and started it while driving away. I was left alone.
"that boss shit!!" I shouted. I couldn't stop my anger at that man.
All I did was hail a taxi to take me to the company.
Matthew's Pov.
("By the way he's cute")
What's cute? And when did that become cute?... It's just his looks. No one wants to be with him.
"When did a guy get cute?" I suddenly asked myself.
But why am I suddenly annoyed that the Tan village called him cute? I don't know anything about other people, except for people I know very well, but why did I do that?...to suddenly get angry with him?
Klio's Pov.
I'm here today at my condo, because it's a week today so I won't go in so I planned to go to the grocery store near the condominium. But before leaving, I took a shower and then dressed in a simple t-shirt and shorts.
After I got out, I immediately locked the door, just to make sure we might get robbed hehe.

[GROCERY STORE]
"What's not in my condo?" I asked myself. Because you looked at what was not in the kitchen hyst.
I decided to buy things to use for cooking like ingredients and then I went to the counter to pay.
"Ahmm sir... it's all ₱300.00 pesos" said the cashier so I gave him 500 so he gave me 200 in return.
After that, I left because there were many others who followed me.
When I came out, I suddenly fell down so I sat on the floor causing my seat to hurt.
"I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose" said the person who bumped into me, I looked at it very seriously.
"Next time, look where you're going" I yelled at him and he supported me. At the same time, he picked up the food that was scattered on the floor.
"This ohh I'm really sorry, next time I'll be careful I'm sorry" he asked again and again to call. That's really a big deal for him.
"Yes, I'm going to leave" I said goodbye to him while walking when I was suddenly stopped by his hand holding my wrist. I turned around in surprise.
"What is your name?" He suddenly asked. Wait, why does he need to know my name?
"I'm --" he couldn't finish what he was going to say when my cellphone rang.
"Just excuse me, I'll answer it for you" I said to him with a little distance.
"Hello?" I asked on the other line.
"Where are you? Aren't you at your condo?" I will not be surprised by the tone of his speech.
"I'm here at the grocery store, sir, why?" I asked him. Why did you call because I'm not at work at the company today because it's the week.
"Make it fast. Go to my condo" he said which made me startled. What should I do there?
"Sir, why am I going to your condo?" I asked again.
"Don't ask to much just come here" he said annoyed as he hung up. There really is no way.
After we talked with sir, I approached the man who bumped into me again.
"Sorry, I need to leave, and I hope you'll be careful where you're going again, you might bump into someone again" I said to him as I left. I'm still waiting for him to answer because maybe sir will heat me up again if I don't go to his condo right away

I'm here in front of the door of his condo. I know if it's that because that's what was written in his text room 205.
I was about to knock when it suddenly opened, surprising me.
"What are you doing? Come in" he said to me as he pulled my hand inside and closed the door.
I was amazed at the size of his condo. Can't help but be amazed.
"What else are you going to do? Clean it up," he suddenly said, frowning at me as he turned to the boss.
"Sir, what did you say? I'll clean up?" I repeat what he said.
"Yes, why? Do you have a complaint?" He asked. I didn't answer but I started to clean inside his condo.
"It will also clean a lot of chatter" he said as he walked to the kitchen.
So I can't do anything but organize and pick up the scattered trash in his living room.
"Hyst, I hope you're handsome, it's just that you don't know how to clean" I said to myself when suddenly someone spoke that surprised me.
"What did you say?" He asked more. 'hyst, it's a good thing he didn't hear too much' I said in my mind.
"No sir, my mother doesn't have a map, she will start" I said while taking the map from her. He left for his room.
I just gasped for air. Start cleaning again
.
.
.
.

.

I finally finished cleaning the living room as well as the kitchen, I think bathroom. The only thing I haven't cleaned is sir's room, but I'm tired.
I went to the sofa and laid down, I felt sleepy because I was tired, then I realized that I had fallen asleep.
Matthew's Pov.
I'm here now in my room, lying down. Wondering if it's time to clean up.
I don't even know myself why I sent him to my condo to clean. The truth is that I have a maid to clean my condo. Because I was bored, I just left the room to go see him. There I saw him lying on the sofa sound asleep.
Without a second thought I approached him.
"Hey wake up" I woke him up but he didn't even wake up.
But I didn't realize that my gaze was fixed on his face. With his smooth face, his sharp nose, and red lips that are delicious to kiss.
That's when I realized what I said. So I immediately dismissed the thought of that as I looked at his face again.
"You're really cute when you look closely" I suddenly said to myself as he suddenly wanted to move and opened his eyes. I retreated a little.
"Hey sir, I'm sorry I fell asleep" he said.
"No it's okay, thank you for cleaning my condo, don't worry I paid you anyway" I told him. He nodded when I suddenly thought of something.
"Can you clean me every sunday?" I asked him. He turned to me.
"Ahh okay sir, because there is a fee but if it's free, don't waste my sweat" he said so I laughed at what he said.
"Okay, thanks you can leave now" I said to him so he stood up saying goodbye to me and went out.
So a smile came to my lips for no apparent reason
Someone's Pov.
"Hey dad, I'm going back to the Philippines this coming weekend" I said to my dad, I'm here in the Philippines as a model, after all someone hired me as a model in their company, why not I will grab this opportunity right? And also I missed someone I love the most.
"Why so sudden my lovely daughter? I thought you were happy when you were in Paris as a model, did you want to go home here in the Philippines?" He said as if he couldn't believe what I said.
"It doesn't matter dad, I'm going to the Philippines and I missed him already dad and I know he misses me too" Kopa said to my dad.
"Okay okay, just tell me when so that I can pick you up at the airport okay?", he said yes, causing a smile to appear on my face.
"Thank you dad, don't worry I will buy you a pasalubong here" he said happily as he hung up.
"I'm coming for you Matthew and I missed you so much my babe" Kopa said to herself as she got out of the car and entered the hotel where I stayed.
Matthew's Pov.
"Do I have an appointment to attend Mr. Madrigal?" I asked him so he looked at me.
"Ahmm no sir, but your mom called to bring you home early for dinner" he said but he didn't realize that I was already staring at his face, when I realized that I dismissed you immediately.
"That's all?" I asked again.
"Yes sir, that's all" he said turning to what he was doing.
He's already here in my office, I don't know why I moved him here, I want to see him all the time, as if I don't want to lose him from my eyes.
"Ahmm k-klio?" I called but that's when I realized that I was stuttering when I called him. So he turned around with a surprised look on his face.
"Never mind" I said while turning my attention to my laptop.
I don't know but I felt ashamed of him for no reason.
"I'm going crazy" I said to myself as I stood up and went out without saying goodbye knowing if I made him sleepy.
Klio's Pov
"Did you receive the money that was sent to you?" I asked mom on the other line.
I just got paid and it was actually sir who gave it to me.
"Yes, son, thank you for this, but how much did you send? Maybe you don't have any left over there, son," mom said, making me smile.
"What's up, that's okay, just be careful, she'll miss you," Kopa said mom.
"I miss you too son, okay, mom has something else to do, I'm going to go" he said so he hung up the phone.
I'm here now in the living room of my condo waiting for Sai. We're going to the mall today, he said because it's our first salary so we'll skip it.
After a while someone knocked on the door so I went to open it.
"Oh, it's good that you made it? I thought we wouldn't continue," said Kopa to Sai, who had just arrived.
"What's wrong, I won't agree that the walk won't continue, so let's go" he said while pulling my hand. So I closed the door and locked it.

"How much did you buy?" I asked him. He has so many bags that he only bought clothes. I haven't bought a single one yet.
"What are you doing mind your own business" he said while flipping his hair. Really stupid. I left him and went to a bookstore.
I'm looking for Akashi Kirro's book. While I was searching I found a book of his. The title is 'THE COUSIN'S OBSESSION'. One of the most famous novels that Bl.
He was about to take it when suddenly something caught my eye for me to hold his hand that was holding the book I wanted.
"I'm sorry," Kopa said while letting go of the hand I was holding.
"It's OK." He answered while looking at me.
"Do you like this book too?" He asked, I slowly nodded with a smile.
"I bet we're the same, you'll also take it if I'm ahead of you, it's yours" he said handing the book to me. I slowly accepted it.
"That's right, I can't think of anything when I don't read it," Kopa said.
"Yes, you're right, by the way I'm Iniaki nice to meet you--" he said as he held out his hand and I accepted it.
"I'm Klio, nice to meet you iniaki" I said when suddenly someone shouted his name so we turned around.
"Hey Baby, you're here, I've been looking for you for a while, what are you doing here in this bookstore? And who is he?" He said looking at me as if he would eat me alive.
"Ohh he's Klio, Klio meet Harry my boyfriend" Iniaki introduced her boyfriend to me.
"Nice to meet you Harry" said cup
"he likes the book of Akashi Kierro one of my favorite author in bl novel" said iniaki, I nodded shyly.
"Okay let's go, mom call us for lunch" Harry said while holding Iniaki's hand.
"I'm sorry Klio, I wanted to talk to you but we have to go nice to meet again bye, hope we can see each other soon" said iniaki and started to leave.
I didn't expect those two to have sex, I mean I've only seen a real bl couple in my whole life. 'But what I'm wondering about is Harry's child rather than the baby's?'
I was brought back to reality when someone touched my shoulder. A reason to surprise me.
"Hey bes, it's here" said Sai.
"Can you please not surprise me" I yelled at him as I walked to the counter to pay for the book I was going to buy.
"Isn't there anything to buy when we get home?" I asked sai afterwards whether to pay.
"There's nothing left" he said while pulling me so I sent it.
Klio's Pov.
I am here today in Sir Matthew's office to arrange the assigned sched that he needs to go to. After all that is settled, I approached him to give it to him and what will be his decision if he attends.
"Sir, here are all the schedules you need to go to" I said while giving it to him. He looked at it. Then he looked at me and smiled. That made me smile.
"Thanks for this Klio" he said and I nodded while walking back to my table when he suddenly called me. So I stopped and looked at him.
"Do you have anything to do?" he asked. I answered.
"Nothing sir, I really finished what you ordered me to do" said Kopa. He nodded.
"So can you come with me this dinner time to my house?" He said that I was shocked. I know that this is not the first time that Sir Matthew has invited us to have dinner together, but I wonder if he is still at home? Its embarassing.
"I have--" I didn't finish what I was going to say when he suddenly interjected.
"I don't take no for answer" he said so I nodded slowly.
"Okay, just wait for me at your table, I'll fix it." He said nodding while approaching my table.
Because I was bored waiting, I took a nap.

"Hey, wake up" someone said so I opened my eyes slowly. I was surprised that his face was so close to mine that I quickly backed away but he just smiled.
"By the way, sir, what time is it? Sorry if I overslept," Kopa said while looking at my watch.
"It's already 6:30 pm" he said so I suddenly stood up.
"Oh sir, did you just wake me up now?" Said cup.
"It's as good as feeling your sleeping face" he said. I felt my cheeks turn red from shame.
"Sir, will the dinner continue?" I just said.
"Ahh yes let's go" he said while holding his hand and pulling him out of his office.
