Chapter 2

Kim Yuan Microelectronics, Philippines.

I stared at the bold letters printed on the white banner that hung above White Sand Beach Resort's main entrance. Its pastel-blue shade turned into neon glows as it reflected the bright sunlight under the noontime sky. I was almost tempted to squeal when that company name reminded me of what happened last night. And I wondered if Mr. Kim had remembered it. I knew women could be at his beck and call, and that experience may mean nothing to him. I expected him to forget about it the moment he would wake up in the morning.

I met Mr. Kim Mori one time when I went to his company to see Ara. He just passed by and didn't notice me, but that first glimpse of him created in me a lasting impression. After that, whenever I saw him, especially when in his signature business suit, I always found myself imagining him. The stunning looks that drew everyone's eyes to him, his imposing aura that commands respect and admiration, and the elegance that made him stand out from any crowd were the traits I dreamed of in a man.

 He is ten years my senior, but our age gap did not lessen my craziness over him. However, I knew he would forever remain in my dreams only, in my wildest fantasy. He’s probably a billionaire, though I hadn’t searched for his total declared assets. I only knew that Kim Yuan Microelectronics, Philippines, the famous company he represented, was a big business empire worldwide.

“Would Mr. Kim appear in front of you if you keep staring at that banner?” Ara’s voice pierced into my ears, disrupting my reverie.

“Okay, let’s go,” I grinned, and Ara rolled her eyes. She had no idea that something wonderful happened between us last night.

Ara and I then went to find our designated room. It was KYMP’s trimestral family beach outing, and Ara brought me as her guest. Each employee had to bring their families, and to those who had none, they could choose to bring anyone they like. It was an opp opportunity for those singles to bring their sweethearts. Ara had Tim as her boyfriend, but unfortunately, Tim never liked to join any of Ara’s company outings.

“Wow!” I exclaimed in awe as we reached our cottage. We were not far from the shoreline, and we could take the full, spectacular view of the sunrise and sunsets beyond the vast stretch of the sea. Even if it was already our second day in this resort, I still couldn't get over the breathtaking view of the sceneries around.

“I know what makes you happy, so I requested to have this room,” Ara explained as she opened the door. She walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows and parted the curtains to the side, revealing the sparkling blue sea a few meters from our cottage.

“But this looks expensive…”

“No big deal. I told Mr. Kim that my best friend loves this location.”

“You told Mr. Kim?” My eyeballs almost popped out from their sockets.

“Yes, in fact, our room is next to his.”

Ara giggled as I placed my palms against my ears and squealed.

“Yes, you can ogle him as much as you like. But don’t be too overwhelmed; he might be bringing his young wife.”

I held both her shoulders and looked into her eyes. “I don’t care!"

"Silly girl!"

I got amused as my thoughts went back to what happened between us. No one ever knew that I was already fantasizing about Mr. Kim since the day I met him, even before that incident last night. And that was about imagining him holding and kissing me, even to the extent of undressing me. Of course, it didn’t stop there. Even if I was still a virgin, I had already experienced many orgasms with him in my mind. Although I hadn’t seen any half nude photo of him, I already envisioned him as fully naked in my mind. Sounds funny, but it's true.

Ara and I changed into pairs of tank tops and shorts over our two-piece swimsuits. While she was eager to join group activities, I was also dying to feast my eyes on Mr. Kim. The workers were divided into teams, and Ara was our team leader. So, even if she still wished to hang out inside the room and enjoy rolling on the huge bed, she had no choice but to go out and gather her team members.

Although Kim Yuan Microelectronics was a  manufacturer of electronic parts, and Ara was a teacher, she got her job as an ESL instructor to its Japanese workers. Most of her students were engineers from Japan who were personally introduced to her by Mr. Kim himself. That’s how she got close to Mr. Kim.

Soon, we found ourselves doing ball games until sunset. Mr. Kim was there watching us, though he didn’t participate in any game. To catch his attention, I did my very best to make our team win the girls’ volleyball.

“Good job, Miss Blue!” he chuckled as he walked to us to congratulate my team. Our team's motif was blue.

“This is Yen, sir, my best friend!” Ara replied proudly, her grin reaching out to both of her ears while winking at me secretly.

“So, it's Yen,” he said smiling, taking my right hand for a shake.

“Thank you, sir!” I stole a glance at Ara, who was beside herself, giving me a teasing look. I couldn't imagine her reaction should she know about my secret.

“Dinner is ready. So, everyone come up."

Dinner was served at a long table just a few meters from where we played. After getting a plateful of food, I settled myself in a chaise lounge, facing the sunset. The crimson-tangerine horizon seemed to take all my exhaustion away as I watched how it slowly turned into complete darkness.

“Thinking about a boyfriend?” A rich, masculine voice broke into my train of thoughts.

I turned, and my heart seemed to jump out of its cage. I was dying to know whether he remembered everything last night.  “Mr. Mori.”

He chuckled and continued, “I’m so jealous at the man who takes your thoughts away just now.”

I laughed softly and pulled myself into an upright position. “Your wife isn’t here?”

I regretted what I said right away. I was not interested to hear about his relationship status while my mind played like a broken player about our heavy petting last night.

“Maybe, she’ll be able to catch up later.”

I nodded like a fool, pretending I was interested.

“How about your boyfriend?”

I got stunned for a while before I found the words to say. I suddenly forgot that I was already in a relationship with Zed for seven years in front of this man. I smiled and stole a glance.

“He has speaking engagement.”

“What does he do? A motivational speaker?”

“Yes, sir.”

He nodded, and I caught how his eyes sparkled. “Then, Miss Yen, I’d like to set an appointment with him for our Marriage Encounter Seminar.”

“It’s an honor, sir. I will tell him about your offer.”
