Chapter 9

I WAKED UP to voices outside the room. When I looked at the clock on the side of the bed and it was on the small table and the clock said it was 1 o'clock in the afternoon, I was just shocked. So I immediately organized myself and went out.

"Good morning..." I greeted them. Erna-lizel, Janna, Rogeinn, and Jaycee greeted me at the same time.

And the four pregnant women, Mary Grace, Camille, Crisza, and Michaella, are busy spreading fruits that the world doesn't seem to care about.

Haist! It seems that pregnancy is a trend nowadays.

"It's not morning, it's afternoon, I think you're still asleep..." Janna joked as I just shrugged my shoulders.

I looked around the room but I couldn’t see my crazy friend, Kitty. Where is she? 

"Where's Kitty?"  I ask the girls.

They were about to answer when I saw that the person I was looking for had been spit out of the kitchen and was carrying two plates full of pancakes in each hand.

"That's a lot, huh. Who's going to eat that? Don't tell me, you? You're really greedy," I laughed at her. 

 "Excuse me, pancakes are not my favorite!" She said, rolling her round eyes.

"Then to whom?" Because I know our friends don't like pancakes too.

"Me. Do you have a problem with that?!"  the pregnant Crisza stood up and still sighed.

"Ahmm, no," I replied.

It's hard to howl at pregnant women.  They are irrational and easily annoyed.

"But why did Kitty cook? The last time I remember this girl…" I pointed at Kitty who is now serving Crisza. "...doesn't know how to cook."

"Why do you care?" Crisza, annoyed, raised an eyebrow at my question.  Early in the morning, this pregnant woman was in a bad mood again. "I want her to cook pancakes for me. Because I don't like my husband to cook in these kitchens with you all around!" Referring to the man who I met last night. "And it's not like I'm slaving Kitty." She says.

I didn't say anything because that's what Kitty told me.

"Come with me later," Kitty said as she served Crisza.

 "Okay," was my short reply.  I don't want to think anymore and eat with them. And I'm glad the noisy dining hall was finished after an hour.

AFTER TWO HOURS we are here at Moose Grocery, owned by my boss’s friend. I think his name was Christian?

 "I thought you didn't want to buy here. Why are we here?"  I asked Kitty.

Because she really doesn't want to be here in this building.  Even just passing outside, she avoids it.

"I have no choice! Here's the food Sam wants," she replied.  Sam, short for Samantha, is Eli's daughter.

"Why don't other stores sell those foods? I don't want to see him here." She was even annoyed to point at the man approaching us.

The one he was referring to was Christian.  I don’t know what the real score of the two of them is and why Kitty is so annoyed with the guy.

Christian is handsome and I'm right he has an eight-pack that will definitely make you salivate but not me. Because that's not my type.

We were busy talking and Kitty was pouting when suddenly someone spoke behind us.

"Hi, babe," he greeted Kitty who pouted more.

When I looked back it was Christian.

"Can you stop doing that?"  Kitty's tongue twitched and she stared at him.

"You miss me, that's why you are here, right babe?" The man said confidently.

"And FYFI that 'means for your fucking information, I didn't come here because I want to see you! I just have no choice because here are the foods that the twins want."

"I know that you don't miss me, babe. But I'm missing you so darn much!"  Chris let out a deep sigh. "Come home, honey. My bed missed you so much. I miss you every day." every day these two! I was the one who shivered for my best friend who was so numb. 

When Kitty grabbed the chocolates she quickly threw them at the man. "Don't you ever call me, honey? You call?d it to your mistress."

I was so bored I just followed them while Kitty was fighting the guy. If I just didn’t know their true relationship I would think they were dating. Why does Kitty still not want to forgive her husband? It seems to be telling the truth.

I can see in the face of my crazy friend that she loves her husband.  But because of the craziness that Kitty has, even her husband's business meeting with his business partner and the secretary, Kitty was so damn jealous.

That woman doesn't want to believe even if it doesn't make sense because she's crazy. It was good that Chris was able to put up with her.

When I saw one of my favorite junk foods, I quickly opened it. Even though it is forbidden to eat here I don’t care about those because Kitty said, we can do whatever we want to do here. And also blame the two in front of me. What is in front of me is too spicy in the eyes.

I was enjoying my junk food when someone suddenly stood beside me and took my food. Turns out it was my super duper yummylicious boss Alexis Von Callahan. Shit! Will he recognize me the way I am?

"Hi sexy, are you Kitty's friend?" He asked.

So he didn't know me. Good!

"Y-yes."

"Damn! You're hot. I just saw you coming in with Kitty earlier and you got my attention right away," said my boss.

I know he was flirting with me.

"I'm Alex." He introduced himself to me.  At the same time unfolding his right hand for a handshake. "Wanna spend the night with me?"

I just raised an eyebrow at him. But I must admit that he was really good at flirting. But too bad, I already know him and I don't want trouble for my  I hadn't known him, I would have been squirming with excitement.

"Come on, baby! Shake my hand or I will shake your world. What do you think?"  he said in a flirtatious voice.  "Will you make this handsome to wait?" He smiled at the same time as it pointed to himself.

I just stared at him with no reaction.

"I know you are speechless of how handsome I am."

That's when I smirk. So boastful.

"First things first, I don't even ask for your name. Second, I don't introduce myself to people like you, who are already lifting their own bench and table! Third, you're not handsome and you're not yummy either.  And lastly, get out of my way because you're a nuisance! "  I said that I just raised my voice to embarrass him. "Go away, let this beauty pass." 

"Hey, I'm not ugly."

"Did I say ugly?  I didn't say that, because I said, you're not handsome. The spelling is different. Like duh! "  I said and quickly turned away.

I smiled as I walked away from him, because whatever my naughty boss would do or say wouldn’t work for me, I am his secretary, who knows him better. It's a good thing he didn't recognize me or it is the end of everything.

I breathed a sigh of relief as he no longer followed me. Maybe he was really embarrassed. Kitty quickly finished the buy lists. I also don't know where her husband is, maybe Kitty really got rid of him too.

When we arrived at the car, I was shocked because we bought lots of things. It is also tiring to be a slave to pregnant women. And I never thought I would see Kitty like this.

Think about it!  Pregnant women will only eat it for two days and then we need to buy it again! They're really greedy!

When we came back from groceries, I saw some of the girls were fitting some dresses.

 "Anna, do you have a dress to wear later?"  Rogeinn asked me.

I fell in the chair before speaking.  "Nothing yet. Why what is the occasion?"  what else is in the brain of these women and it looks like there is an occasion.

"Party, come to my room later. I'll give you my newly designed gown."  After saying that, Rogeinn said goodbye and turned away.

By the way, Rogeinn is a famous designer.

After helping Kitty and the other girls arrange the things we bought, I immediately went to Rogeinn's room and I knocked. She was still letting me in so I went in as well. I caught Marygrace frowning.

"Why is the gown sexy for them? While for me it's turtleneck and long sleeves," she complained while caressing her small belly.

Rogeinn dealt with her calmly. "Oh, why are you complaining to me? You're there with your husband. He, himself, personally came to me and changed your dress design," she said.

"You can't definitely taste me later Zenon!" annoyed the pregnant woman and marched out of the room.

Rogeinn and I laughed softly and handed me the gown I was going to wear tonight.  I thanked her first before I left her because it looked like he had a lot more to do.

ALEXIS POINT OF VIEW

"Fuck!"  I've been here in my office for a while and I'm frustrated!

Because of my stupidity last night, I immediately lost a good secretary. And I don't know what to do with this fucking paper works! 

Shit! Shit!

My head hurts at the thought of the amount of trouble here in the office, and my head hurts even more because I can no longer hunt women to bed.

This is the first time I haven't had sex with a woman in a day. And that's depressing for someone like me who's used to having sex on a daily basis.

"Helda, come to my office now!" I call her in the line. Helda was our company's new finance manager. The old finance manager was fired. I don't know where she is now and I don't care. As long as my company is earning and still on top.

When there was a knock on the door I immediately let her in. I didn't even look up at the door to see the woman's face.

"Where's the business proposal I asked for you earlier, Helda?"

"Here's the contract, sir," she said and laid something in front of my table.

I quickly reached for the papers and read them but I was already frowning on the first page.

What kind of business proposal is this? This is garbage!

"What is this?" I angrily dropped the papers she provided in front. I looked up and she bowed her head. What a pathetic and inefficient worker.  "What kind of business proposal is this? A love letter? An excuse letter? What the fuck, Helda! You weren't in high school to make that proposal to Mr. Monde a love letter! Don't you know how to make a business proposal or are you just stupid!" 

Damn! Why does HR hire worthless people? They know I hate people who still need to be taught! Any of the company staff today are ruining my mood.

"I'm sorry Sir, I'll just fix it," she said in a panic as if she would cry anytime.

"Then fix it! And this time, make sure you'll impress me or else I'll fire you! Do you understand?"

"Y-yes sir," he replied and deliberately bowed so that I could peek at her proud chest.

Shit! If I hadn’t just had a bad trip today she might have been screaming at this table while I fuck her hard and rough. But since I’m not in the mood, she's safe.

"Fuck! Get out!!!" I yelled at her.

I need her to get out of my office as soon as possible because I was slowly getting hot due to her office uniform. At least this is not the time for my libido to party.

"And Helda," I called her name. She was already in the door, looking at me.

"Yes, Sir?"

 "The next time you come into my office, close all the buttons on your clothes or change into more decent clothes and not the types of clothes that expose everything as well as your soul."

"I'm sorry, Sir," and she came out, embarrassed.

I know I'm hurting a lot of my employees because of my behavior. And one is my new finance manager but I don't care.  It's her fault. She did it deliberately just to seduce me.

I quickly got up and left the office because I had been tired of the noise before. I slammed the door open and asked them aloud.

"What the fuck is happening? Why is it noisy?" I saw some of my employees gathered and it pissed me off. "If you gossip here, you can leave my company because I don't need inefficient employees!"

"We apologies, Sir, we won't do it again," they said at the same time.

"Go back to your fucking table and be efficient employees!" I immediately turned around and slammed the door shut and stood near the glass wall. From where I stand I can see the beautiful view of the city. I also stood for a few minutes and quietly watched the bottom before I returned to the chair and resumed my work. I have to work hard because I don’t have a good secretary. And I don't know how to convince Anastasia to get back to being my secretary.

What’s even more annoying is that woman left me in the air! Damn it!!!

I wasn't rude before. But all that suddenly changed when I met the woman I never thought I would love but she also turned out to destroy my whole being. And it's her fault what's happening to me right now. She changed me into a monster, a beast that never cared about other people's feelings. Fucking bitch! If only I could see her again she would pay dearly for what she did to me.

"Fuck!" I threw the papers at the door when it suddenly opened.

"What the hell, Dude! Is this how you're going to greet me?" Chris asked and sat down on the sofa as he entered my office.

"What are you doing here, asshole?" I crease my brows.

Christian was my college friend. He and I were together when we were hunting chikababes but this year he changed because he is already married to Kitty.  According to him, he is faithful to his wife. Faithful my ass!

"The things you ordered from Japan are at Grocery," he said, busy on his cellphone.

"It's better if you just brought it here," I said reluctantly.

Whenever this one really doesn’t help, he's just going to announce that your order has arrived but he won’t really be willing to deliver it here.

"It's your duty to pick it up, Dude. It's free to bring it from Japan. I guess that sounds like you're abusing my handsomeness, dude?"  he smiled.

I just didn't answer. I proceeded to sign the papers.

"By the way, will you come with me to the G club later?"  he asked while I was busy signing the papers. "The rest of the gang will be there too."

I only nodded as my answer.

"That's good! Let's go together. Let's go through the parts you ordered from my store first. I don't want that to stay there long," he laughed.

I quickly finished signing the contracts while Chris was patiently waiting for me. When I finished, we immediately left the office to go straight to his Grocery.

"Sir Chris's really hot," I heard a whisper as we got out.

"You're right. Is he single?"

I frowned and turned to look at Chris and the crazy friend of mine smiled broadly and actually waved more, so my female employees winced.

"What happened to be faithful?"  I pissed him off.

"That's not cheating. I just wave at them because the two of us are hot."

"Yeah, whatever!"

When we got to Grocery Chris was ahead of the entrance as he followed the two females at the entrance. I even caught him following a woman, I think that's his wife.

Damn! I can't believe that Keith Christian would go crazy with a woman.

I would have turned my back when my eyes saw an attractive woman. A woman suddenly took some junk food and opened it so I was free to study her back.

White shoulders, slender waist, and convex buttocks. Shit!!! That is all my weakness! I can feel my buddy down there starting to salute. I could no longer restrain myself from approaching her.

"Hi, sexy! Are you Kitty's friend?"  I asked to get her attention.

I'm right! She was beautiful.

"Y-yes," she replied.

"Damn! You're hot! I just saw you coming in with Kitty earlier and you've got my attention," I said. I couldn't help it. The one in front of me is really beautiful and sexy so I shouldn't miss this one. "I'm Alex..." I introduced myself and held out my hand. "Wanna spend a night with me?"

But she just looked at my hand and raised an eyebrow at me. My eyes widened at her red lips. They were delicious to kiss. Damn it!!!

"Come on, baby. Shake my hand or I will shake your world." I smiled seductively.

She took a deep sigh as she stared at me.

"First thing first. I don't even ask for your name. Second, I don't say my name to people like you who are already lifting their bench and table! Third, you're not handsome and neither are you macho. And lastly, get out of my way because you're disturbing me." 

"Hey, I'm not ugly."

"Did I say that? I didn't say ugly because I said you're not handsome! The spelling is different. Like, duh!"  after saying that she quickly turned away.

I would have followed her but when Chris approached me at first glance he looked problematic. I stopped myself to follow the beauty. But I was hoping to meet her again. 

"What's wrong?" I asked him. I took a drink out of the cooler and gave it to him. We drink at the same time.

"Yeah, she doesn't want to listen to my explanation. You know how much I love her, she's my everything, dude. What she saw in my office is not true. Nothing happened between me and Sarah, but she doesn't want to listen to me. I missed her so much… Every time I went home, our house was empty without her." He moaned and gulped the contents of the bottle.

"Why don't you court her again? Dude, she's your wife! You've been married for a year and I know she loves you dearly too. Just court her, Dude. Prove to her that nothing happened between you and that slut!" I encourage him.

"By the way, who's with Kitty, dude?"  I asked with a sly smile.

"That's Asia, her best friend. You didn't know her because you weren't at our wedding last year. She would have been your partner in my wedding if you hadn't gone crazy with that woman---"

"I know," I interrupted him.

I don’t want to hear his name. I get angry every time I remember what she did to me. Fuck!!!
