“I think Niko might be falling in love with Reyna already.” Luke said, a coy smile forming on his lips.“That’s not new news. It was bound to happen either way.” Joe replied as he rolled his eyes.Luke's excitement died down as rushed towards Joe, looking at him and battling his lashes like a puppy.“How do you know that? Why am I just finding out?” He questioned, staring at him like a puppy waiting to be served.“That’s because you’re always buried in office work and I have to help him and her each day, that way, you don’t know anything while I know all of it.” Joe replied, picking up a file from the table and opening it.“Did he say he’ll be coming to the office or not?”“He said he’ll bring something for us, which means he’ll be coming but I think he might bring a partner.”“You think he’ll tell Reyna he is the owner of Nirvana when he has not sorted the issue with his brother and family?” Joe asked with furrowed brows.Luke leaned away from the chair, straightening his suit as he
Luke and Nikos eyes rested on Reyna, waiting for her to say something while she fiddled on her feet. She was uncomfortable and in her mind, different curse words were being said to Niko.“We’re counting on you. The deal is a very good one. And Niko knows so much that he shouldn’t lose it.” Luke said, his eyes pleading to Niko.“Of course. We can stay. You can show me the company and I can check out where my office would be.” Reyna said, turning to look at Niko whose brows were scrunched up.“Thank you! I know you would pick my side! Thank you! I’ll go set the meeting room up!” Luke yelled out, bowing continuously as he rushed away.Reyna lips curled up as her eyes followed him until he disappeared, her lips curled into a small smile. It was not until Niko flicked her forehead and she scrunched her face up that she turned to face him.“Why do you have to put me in that situation?” She asked with her frowned face.“Because you’re my girlfriend, you should make decisions for me from now
Reyna walked to the chair in the room, plopping her ass down as she recalled the face she saw earlier. Why does she feel like seeing a split image of Dylan through that man? Even though Niko hadn’t allowed her to see him well, his nose and his smile looked exactly just like Dylan, just that from his features, he would be more playful than Dylan.Alvarez.. that’s what Niko called him. Probably she would ask Dylan at school tomorrow, if he decides to talk to her after she had shut him off and not call him back after missing the date. A sigh escaped her lips, fumbling for her phone as she met another thatch of missed calls, this time, both from Larissa and Dylan, and one from an unknown number.A frown ebbed her features as she clicked on the number, dialing it out back as the other line picked after one ring,“The boss asked you to call this number if you need anything. I’ll be expecting your call.” The person said as Reyna sighed heavily before hanging up.She needed to talk to Niko, t
“So where is she?” Alvarez asked as Niko entered the meeting room.“She’s not part of any of this. I told you that, leave her out.” Niko warned, taking his seat and favungvalvarex.“I don’t know why you’re here though. When we both talked, it’s until tomorrow that we’ll be having the meeting. Why call a meeting now?”“Because I have to be at home tomorrow and help my brother sulk. He called a lady for a date and she didn’t appear, someone he really likes.” Alvarez said as a sigh escaped his lips.He leaned towards Niko, his head coming forward to whisper in his ears,“I was wondering. Could you let this your girlfriend go for my brother, I’m sure she’ll be prettier than whosoever he’s dating, even though I’ve seen her picture once and she’s pretty too, but could you let go?” Alvarez said, staring deep into Nikos eyes.Niko lips curled up, darting his eyes away from Alvarez as a sigh escaped his lips. He leaned back into his chair with his palm joined together.“What business are you h
As they drove home, Reyna couldn’t help but gloat at how good she performed, making Niko lips curl up as he kept on scoffing and hissing,“He even had to say he loves me twice, have you ever seen anyone act like that before! It would be better if you just employ me once and for all, set me a space and you get to see this beautiful girl each day at your office.” She said, facing him as he drove.“You’ve not passed his test yet, he still hasn’t given you the money. It took less than an hour to convince him. You?” He mocked her.“If I was with my designs, I'd crush him faster than you did. Just wait and see. And I still gave the company some face?”“What face?” Niko asked her and also glanced at her.“I could have said we could have the meeting at a restaurant or dinner, but I decided who would do it there. Didn’t I do it well?” She said, her face beaming in all smiles.“And you think he didn’t notice how your expression changed when he called his name?” Niko said, completely shutting Re
Reyna woke up early the next day, covering Niko up with the blanket and dropping a note for him. She had to get to school early, one was to avoid Dylan and the other was just to avoid him again.She tiptoed carefully from her room, closing the door gently and walking downstairs. She didn’t know if her driver was always still around since Niko had been the one transporting her back and forth but she hoped he was around.“Miss, the driver is not here yet.” The guard on duty said to her as she walked out, a sigh escaping her lips.“But I can take you if you want, I know how to drive too.” The guard said before they heard the door open and Niko appearing with a disheveled appearance.He wasn’t wearing a shirt for a start, and his eyes contained lots of sleep that they might have an accident if they dare drive in his situation,“Go back to your post. I’ll take her.” He said.Reyna walked back to him, lowering her head and fumbling her hand together. She didn’t want him to say anything as s
“Won’t you tell me why you’re mad at me at least? How am I going to apologize if I don’t know why you’re even mad at me?” Reyna called out as they finished class, begging Larissa to please say something.Larissa stopped in her tracks and faced Reyna,“You just completely forgot me! I don’t know if it’s because of your relationships now, but now you don’t even care for me! It’s like I’m not even there anymore! You come to school and leave without checking or caring if I’m there! Is that fair?” She snapped at her as Reyna's eyes widened.Before she could move an inch out again, she quickly pulled her into a hug, squeezing her small self in her and making sure she wasn’t able to pull out.“I’m really sorry. I’m really really sorry.” Reyna said to her, holding her tight as Larissa continued to struggle.After a while, she gave up in her arms as she hugged her back,“You don’t know how much I missed eating with you and telling you things.” Reyna added as she patted her softly.“I’m really
Niko got to the restaurant, finding a nice table for three as he sat down. The waitress walked towards him, asking him if he needed anything but he was too lazy to reply. All his mind was on the goal he brought there , find some information about Reyna and then leave. He just hoped the girl the man was bringing had some kind of deformities where he could use to complain.He had not stayed for more than 10 minutes when a big car drove in. His eyes strained on it as a beautiful young lady came out. She was wearing a white skirt and matched it with a black plain top. She opened the back door as he saw the familiar cane, cursing under his breath and finding another idea which he can use to decline the girl. The man walked out of the car and towards the restaurant while the girl followed suit, her eyes roaming everywhere.“Do you recognize him, grandfather?”she called out.“Of course. He’s the one over there.” The old man pointed as they approached Niko.Niko stood up immediately as he saw
