SLIP OF TONGUE

2024-10-29 19:42:56Alex first went back inside the townhouse and took something in there and bring it with him outside.
He saw a mini park with wooden benches on his way back when he was still looking for Shantal and that was where he planned to bring the other party.
As soon as they were seated, Alex lifted Shantal's right arm and without saying a word, he started massaging it; standing from below her armpit down to the tip of her fingers.
After that, he made Shantal balled her hands into a fist and deliberately tied a thread around her thumb.
"Where did you get that?"
Shantal blurted out and when all of a sudden, Alex took a thread and needle out from his pocket.
"Duh? Obviously, I got it inside the house."
Alex replied as he fought back his desire to roll his eyes.
Shantal, on the other hand, braced herself because she already has an inkling of what Alex was about to do next. Yet as when the needle at Alex's hand was a few centimeters aw

"Are you saying something? Sorry I did not catch it. Can you say it again please?"Oblivious how her untimely distraction had been a blessing in disguise for Alex, Shantal asked her robot to repeat his wordsShe happened to get distracted by a flying butterfly before her eyes just as when Alex had a slip of his tongue and that made her missed what Alex just said."It's nothing."Alex replied shortly as he heaved a sigh of relief and thinking that it was really not important, Shantal no longer pursued the matter and put it at the back of her mind.What she did instead was she changed the topic and expressed her gratitude towards Alex."Anyway, thank you. If it has not been for you, I would have been miserable by myself. To be honest, what you just did to me reminds me of my mom. Nobody has done acupuncture for me since my mom died."Meanwhile, when Alex learned how his action managed to reach a sentimental

"Prior to coming to this place, you told me that we are going to enjoy the rest of the day....""Well, yeah. I kind of recall telling you that thing."Shantal seconded Alex right away the moment she heard him say something."So are you telling me this is your idea of having a blast?Alex asked back with a twitch on his face. Because apparently the two of them were doing nothing but dally inside their air-conditioned room.Shantal was even browsing an online store using her phone while a throw pillow was placed atop Alex's head and she resting her head on it."Thankfully this place has a working WIFI despite it being somewhat a secluded village. I don't know what else I could do without my internet connection."She added afterward with a sigh."Would it not be better for us to go and have some fun outside? After all, I believe we did not travel all the way here so as you could lie around in this room."Alex suggeste

"Oh cous, that was so irresponsible of you. Android Partners should at least be charged every other day, or else, they would get grumpy. I remember when the first time I forgot to charge Arvin, he refused to cuddle with me and I ended up spooning my pillow all night."Jodi subconsciously clicked her tongue when she was reminded of that incident."Is that so? No wonder, Alex suddenly pushed me away as if he did not wish to get near me again. It must have been because of his battery. Can I borrow your charger for while?""Sure thing cous,"Jodi replied right away before issuing a command to her own robot."Go and fetch Alex, then lend him your charger.""Copy that."Arvin nodded his head and without wasting a second he went to the first floor to go after Alex. It did not take that long for him before he got back to where Shantal and Jodi were.Apparently, as soon as he got a hold of Alex, the robot threw him over his should

'PHEW!'Alex, on the other hand, heaved a sigh of relief when Arvin left him in the room. He was not sure anymore how he would going to deal with the other party if ever he insisted on staying with him and watched him do the recharging process.Because how was he supposed to do that for real, when he was not the robot that needed to be recharged, in the first place.However, before Alex could even make his mind on what he was going to do next, he heard Shantal's voice speaking to him from the other side of the door."Alex, are you sure you will be alright on your own? I mean, I can go and help you if you want""Nah. I'm good. In fact, I am almost ready."He replied and moved around the massive power bank and made them hear the noise that he was making."Are you sure that you are done charging? It has not been an hour since I left you inside."Arvin asked Alex as soon as he stepped out of the room."Un!"

"Where are we going?"Alex asked Shantal as soon as they were out from earshot. But Shantal did not give him an answer and instead, she just continued to pull him with her.He knew that he was the reason why Shantal snapped out and when he was reminded of what Shantal did for him in front of Arvin, his lips could not help but broke into a smile because having someone on his side who was standing up for him warmed his heart.He was fully aware that Shantal's protectiveness was not personally directed to him, but rather to her robot. She probably did not like seeing her Android Partner being looked down on by others. But despite knowing that, Alex was still moved that the other party was sticking up for him."We are off for a rough start, but the day is still long. I guess it not too late for us yet to plan the thing we can do to spend the rest of it, right?"Shantal beamed at him and seeing the other party trying to act cheerful in front of hi
Boyfriend for Sale OLD ACQUAINTANCE
"How have you been, Mr. Hamon?"Shantal asked without wiping the smile off her face. She had been smiling for far too long that even to Alex, he found it unnatural. Because he never saw the other party smiled at anyone for that long.Shantal's smiling face could only last for a minute at most before it would return to her ice-cold expression.Yet in front of the old man, Shantal had been talking with all smiles that Alex almost ended up wondering whether the other party's cheeks were already starting to feel sore for grinning ear to ear in an extended period of time.Unbeknownst to him, Shantal was genuinely delighted to see the familiar face on the farm. As mentioned before, she used to visit the place and she has a lot of childhood memories of it."These old bones were often giving me troubles during winters and cold nights. But nonetheless, I am still strong as a bull."Mr. Hamon told Shantal as he tousled her hair. Alex, on

Shantal brought Alex to the nearby fence and asked him to kill time by feeding the alpacas in the meantime, as she was currently preoccupied with talking to her old acquaintance, Mr. Hamon.He figured that the two seemed to have a lot to catch up so he no longer disturbed them. Also, a stock of hay was beside him and that was what Shantal told him to feed the animals."Looks like you guys are the only ones willing to play with me."Alex said to the alpaca that was munching some dried grass in from of him."You must be so happy since you have so many friends to eat with. You guys have a way better situation than mine. Could you believe that I even have to go into the trouble of hiding whenever I eat? I am not allowed to eat with anyone in the house as I have to do it in secret."He added as he handed the other alpacas with more food."What? Does it taste that good? Alright, then, eat! Here!"Eventually, Alex started to enjoy what

"Wait, no!"Alex used his body to block the gate and stopped Shantal and upon seeing it, Shantal's eyes went heavenward."Come on, Alex, man up!"But then just right after Shantal said those words, she smirked."Or rather, robot up."She added and without waiting for Alex's response she started pulling the horse out of the stable."But I have never ridden a horse before!"Alex revealed with wide eyes. He thought that it would convince the other party to change her mind or at least make her think twice. But, Shantal only shrugged her shoulders when she heard that and gave her robot a once over."Obviously?! Besides, it was not like I expect you to have tried this before, and I honestly don't see the reason why Alpha Tech would have to spend time making their robots ride a horse before shipment. Don't worry, I got you."Somehow, Shantal found Alex's reaction quite silly."No, please spare me."Alex pleaded wi

Is your scalp itchy.""No."The two answered in unison. Jodi on the other hand who was watching all of this farce unfold right before her eyes, could not help but let out a sigh."You sure are made for each other."She said to no one in particular and it was also as seemed she was only talking to herself."Anyway.

He believed that if only he was not asleep that time, then maybe Jodi would also consider dating him.On the other hand, Rico seemed to be out of it and oblivious of him."Lover."The other party mumbled to himself as he observed the tarot card in his hand.'"I did not know this will happen. I feel so lonely."Michael muttered to himself out of despondency and while he was in the middle of self pity. Someone walked into the room.They though the one arrived was some random girl who was in full glam and obviously had just gone to salon for her touch up when it decided to have some coffee."Wow! I told her she would be pretty."

"That robot was sometimes human and sometimes a robot for me and that was why others who can't understand my situation mistakes me as someone who hallucinates and believe a robot as a human just because I am treating it just like one. But for my opinion, my situation was no different from those who loves their pets so much, they even considered them as their child and called themselves as furparents.""My emotions were input into that robot and that person. That is how this miracle happened. That fact completely changed the way I view things. This will be yet another scoop for the reporters present. Nordstorme Corp will go from financing mergers and acquisitions to investing in futuristic industries that involved human sensibilities.

On the flip side, just like what Shantal assumed, Mr. Takashi with Mathilde's instruction called for an emergency meeting on that afternood. Which happened to coincide to the time when Shantal will hold her press conference.Moreover, since Mathilde would not be able to make it there since she was still held in prison, her secretary presided the meeting."We shall begin the emergency board meeting."Secretary Ye declared loudly and her voice reverberated in the room. Jiro was also there along with other board members."The agenda is the dismissal of Director Shantal Nordstorme and the cause is as you were all informed. An illness."She continued while everyone was silent and anxiously prayed so they could ever this meeting once and for all.

When she checked that registered on the caller ID, she was surprised to see Jiro's name.Truth be told, he was the least person he would expect to contact her. After all, the two of them never talked to each other for ages.Jiro used to be a good friend of hers as well. Just like how she and Shantal were cousins, Jiro and and Zorens were first cousins too so naturally all four of them get to know each other and as a child, they eventually became acquaintances in no time.Besides, since Zoren's parents were a family friend of the Nordstorme they often had an opportunity to hang around during their childhood.However, ever since the day Zoren committed suicide due to the incident regarding the Nordstorme controversy, Jiro also stopped communicating with them.So this made Jodi wonder what had come to Jiro to decide and phone her at this time of the night.But

"In other words, she wants me to become director and cover up all his shortcomings?"Mr. Takashi insinuated after his contemplation. He did not exactly declined the offer this time, unlike before. Although he also did not directly implied that he would do it.Nonetheless, Secretary Ye considered his response as a good sign. At least, the other party was no longer adamant at turning them down.So with the same insinuating manner, she answered him back."That would make it easier for you to do your duties once you become a director. All that was left for you now is to leave Ms. Shantal Nordstrome no other choice but to step down and abdicate the position of board directory to your hands.""Ousting her is not enough. He will just come back. We must make sure he loses the will to come back."Out of nowhere, Mr. Takashi declared with conviction and for a second, the secretary was taken aback by this.One moment, he almost drove her a

"You told Jodi about everything?"Mathilde asked her secretary as soon as the two of them were finally allowed to have some private conversation within the prison hall where she was currently detained. Panic was noticeably present on the other party's face when she raised her question. Meanwhile, the secretary remained silence yet that was all enough for Mathilde to guess her response and not long after that, her shoulders dropped on the side when the realization hit her."I guess she was bound to find out about it sooner or later."She muttered under her breath with despondent undertone.An exasperated sigh escaped Mathilde's lips afterward. But then, she suddenly tenses up when she recalled about something else.Leaning towards the other party all the while grabbing a hold to the iron bars, Mathilde looked around her warily first to make sure that no ears were on them.Only when she confirmed for the umpteenth time that no one was listenin

Thank you for the information."I replied and not long after that, she hung up on her because I reckoned that it would be best if I could relay this news to the other search parties. In this way they would also know where to start looking. Of course, the first one that I tried to call was my lady boss. However, to my dismay, I was only redirected to the voice call feature of the phone.'The number you have dialed is busy at the moment. Please try your call later or leave a message aft
