THEIR COLD AND CONFUSED HEARTS

Zadkiel slowly moved his body, straightened himself then leaned his back on his swivel chair. His favourite pen was rolling on between his fingers while watching his secretary with amusement. He was aware of what his secretary was trying to do but he chose to be oblivious.   She was leaning on his table while showing her cleavege to him but he would never fall for it. He was also confused of himself but he remain calm while watching her flaunting her creamy chest on his face.   Micha was his fifth female secretary since he was appointed as the new CEO of the Mortel Group. Like the previous four, she was also trying to do her very best in doing her job. But his patience for them would always being squeezed out and they ended up being fired. Why?   During the

Arkael didn’t bother to go ahead towards the sixth floor but choose to stand nearby the corner of his personal elevator. He was leaning on the wall lazily thinking of the man whom had ignored him. He closed his eyes for a moment shielding himself from the hustle bustle around the premises.   How much did he missed him? How much does he longed to see him? How much prayers did he uttered everyday and every night just to find his way back to him? How much does his heart ached for him? How much tears he had shed for him? During those years, he was worried sick that he might be crying again alone! Two decades had passed and there he was, already grown up into a man! A full handsome man! His mouth curled up slowly as he recalled the cold stares he had received from him. His brother had his personality changed completely! He couldn’t even recognize him i

Zadkiel didn't have enough courage to follow the annoying man towards his personal elevator. Thus, when the guy turned around his back away from him, he immediately searched around for some hiding place where he could gather himself together. His heart was thudding immensely on his chest like it was about to escape from his rib cage.   “What the hell!” He mumbled furiously to himself as he clutched his chest where his heart being located.   He felt like he was floating on something light or whatsoever he hadn't known when the guy ran after him. His insides felt some surge of unknown emotions running through his veins. He felt a sudden excitement and something was twirling inside his chest or stomach rather? He couldn't brought himself to figure it out what he truly felt.  

Zadkiel approached the men’s room in a leisure manner. His rubbed his forehead with his fingers as he felt it was spinning a bit for consuming the half bottle of wine.   Since when did the last time that he drank some wine? He couldn’t even remember anymore! He had totally forgotten the time when he felt a genuine happiness! Yes! His happiness was long been gone!    A real happiness was like a luxurious and priceless treasure for him. He couldn’t afford it no matter how loaded he was! It felt like it was hard to achieve! Much more harder than grabbing an excellent award on his college years. He had graduated on a prestigious and famous university abroad. He was the top notcher but he himself wasn’t even feeling a bit honorable because of it. Emptiness and loneliness always clouded his heart.

Zadkiel was deeply lost on his train of thoughts that he hadn’t noticed Mariella, calling him out. If it wasn’t for her fingers snapping into his face, he wouldn’t even snap out from it.   “What?!” He hissed, irritated at the sudden interruption of his mind wonderings.   Mariella pointed her finger behind him and gasped in extreme awe. “S-someone prevails occurring right behind you, dude!”   Zadkiel turned his head sideways and noticed someone standing behind him. A musky scent wafted into his nose as he sniffed like a K9 dog repeatedly. It seems like he was enjoying that scent too much and he couldn’t able to stop himself from breathing the air around him greedily.   “Shall we go now?”
