Chapter 4

"Hey?!" I poked his stomach.

"Wake up!" I shook his shoulder.

"What??" He asked sleepily.

"The light is back, so you can leave now." I politely pointed to the door.

"I'm sleepy--"

"What I'm sleepy?? Your name is David not sleepy, crazy!" I yelled at him.

I frowned as he patted my shoulder with his hand and laid down on my bed.

"Oh man, you're going crazy! That's my bed so get out of there!!" I tried to pull his leg because he was so heavy that I couldn't pull him.

I stared at him and thinking if can I punch him just once. But I just shook my head and turned my gaze to something else.

I took my phone and checked the time. "2:49 am? Damn!"

_

"My god, Claire!" He said in shock as he opened his eyes. I've been staring at him for a while now and I've been my temper to push him off my bed. 

"Did you sleep well??" I asked, waking up, but all my eyes were looking at him.

"Yeah, I slept well." 

I know, I know! I can see it. Well, it would be good if I just covered your face using my pillow while you're fast asleep!

He stood up and left the room as if nothing happened. "That skinny guy! after grabbing my bed, he just leaves without saying anything! Didn't even apologize, I couldn't sleep because of him!"

I looked at the door when it suddenly opened.

"I have to go to work now and I think you should cook me breakfast Claire, try to be a good wife for once." He shook his head and closed the door.

Who said I'm not nice?? Then wife? Am I his wife? Crazy! I'm single, I don't have a husband, tsk!!

I left the room and cooked food. "Please make good food sometimes."

I just laughed out loud at what he said. "When I cook, it's really good, especially if I love who I am cooking too, but I don't love you, so maybe that's why it's not that good," I said and placed what I cooked on the table.

"I don't love you."

"So do I." I gave him a stare and sat down.

"That's your favorite, isn't it, hotdog." I covered my mouth to stop the laughter that wanted to come out of my mouth.

"What's funny?"

"Nothing, I just suddenly thought why is that your favorite huh??" I looked at him angrily and he just looked at me.

After he ate, I was the only one here again in our huge house! So boring!

I put away the things we ate and just cleaned the house.

"Great! I'm going to report you to Mommy, David! I look like a maid in this house right now!" I was annoyed and just continued to map the floor.

I stopped when I heard someone ring the doorbell, I scratched my nose when I heard the bell ring again.

"Who is that??" I left what I was doing there and went to the gate. I saw a man with his back turned and looking up at the sky.

"Who--" I stopped when he faced me. "Xian?? W-What are you doing here?" I  ask confused.

"Let me in first, Claire." He laughed, I opened the gate and let him in.

"Why do you seem to be the only one here?" He asked while looking around.

"Uhm, we fired them all," I said calmly.

"What? Really?"

"Just kidding!" I burst out laughing.

"Are you mean to me Claire, we haven't seen each other for two months and I haven't even had a hug??" It's like a sulky question to me.

"You still haven't changed!" I hugged him tightly and he did the same.

He put his arm around me and I held his waist. We walked into the house together. He laughed when I tickled his waist. "You still have a tickle there huh!" I was going to tickle him again because he grabbed my hand and tickled me.

"Xian please stop!" I ran and he chased me. We were laughing and chasing each other like children but we stopped when I broke a vase.

"God! Claire you're dead when your husband sees that." He said to me and pointed to your broken vase.

"What are you saying? That's okay, that guy is a billionaire." I said and faked a laugh.

"Claire that vase is obviously old--"

"That's why, it's old so it's cheap. Relax!" He patted his shoulder at the same time.

"What do you mean? It's more expensive when it's old." Is that it? Shouldn't that be new one is expensive one? 

"Really? How much do you think that is??" He was about to speak when I covered his mouth.

"Don't talk anymore, I remembered that I don't have a care." I bent down and picked up the pieces of the vase, I groaned as my index finger was injured.

"Claire! Take it easy!" He yelled at me.

He gently pulled my hand. "Come let's treat it, where's your first aid kit? Don't worry about the broken vase, I'll take care of it."

"Just wait! Just wait, and relax Xian! It's just a little wound." At the same time, someone close to him showed it.

"That's nothing--"

"Claire don't be stubborn!" I bit my lip and looked at him.

Xian is my boy best friend since first year of high school.

I just smiled as I watched him treat the wound on my index finger. He still really cares for me until now, he hasn't changed.

"Oh, that's fine now." 

He was surprised when I stood up. "What do you want? Juice or juice?"

"Is there no other choice?" I shook my head and he laughed. "Oh, okay juice."

I melted some juice for him and put it on the small table. I took out my phone to text David.

To David: What do you want for dinner tonight?

I put my phone aside and for a few minutes, no one texted me back.

To David: I need your answer ASAP!

I text him again.

To David: You answer! You have hands, don't you? You just seen my text, when you get home here I will stomp on you!

I was busy texting and Xian noticed it.

"Who are you texting Claire? You seem to want to kill him." He laughs.

"David, I'm asking what food he wants tonight," I explain.

From David: I'm in a meeting so stop texting!

He said he was in a meeting! I like texting him more.

To David: Really? What's the topic then?

To David: Hey, I'm talking to you properly so answer me!

From David: Are you really not going to stop?!!

What a fool! If he doesn't want me to text him, why don't he turn off his phone then? Tsk, Mr. Buenavista why don't you just tell me that you me...texting you I mean.

I have texted him several times but he doesn't answer and he won't even see my messages. Hey! Too bad he might have thought to turn off his phone.

"Claire? Hey, I was going to talk here a while ago but you weren't listening."

"Sorry Xian, I was texting David."

"Uhm, do you love him yet?" He asked and looked me in the eye.

"N-No..."
