Drake's POV

These days, I can see Charlie always holding  her phone. I'm not thinking that she is doing something bad but it's suspicious that she's always on her phone with someone. Like today, in the living room. She's talking with someone on her phone, I know that Charlie won't cheat on me although we don't love each other, I know that she's not that kind of woman. And it's like its not important because the call doesn't last that long and she's always with me since that day. 

I went to the kitchen to eat breakfast, I won't wait for her since she's busy with the call. I sat and started eating. Charlie came in when I'm about to chew my third spoon of food. Is she done with the call? She sat beside me. 

"Drake, I'll come with you again okay?"- I looked at her, what's new? She's always in my office doing literally nothing all day. I don't know why she keeps coming with me when it's boring. Well, I guess she's not bored watching me do my work. 

"Hmmm"- I finished my food and so she is. And because she's always with me in my office, I officially hired the housekeeper as our maid because the dirty dishes are always being left behind on this table. 

She hopped in the car first, since she starts coming with me in my office everyday, I didn't get to have a chance to have a quiet day. From the car to my office, it's always like I'm with a baby who's been crying. 

She keeps on talking nonstop about nonsense things. Sometimes, I'm forcing myself to ignore her and pretend that I can't here her. 

While walking inside of the building, Charlie took a different direction, where is she going now? Oh well, that's great I can have a peaceful time for the time being. 

Today, I only have a meeting and nothing more to work on. Since the meeting is still two hours from now, I opened the television to watch something but the first to appear is a news about killing again. What does this killer wants? Every killings that is connected to this news is about businessman. I suddenly felt a shiver on my spine that's why I turned off the television, at the same time, Zeke came in.

Charlie also came in with a wide smile on her lips with Blue who's also smiling while the  other two who also came in are like annoyed. Sigh. No need to guess, these two did something again. What is it this time? Last time, my secretary resigned because they made fun of her.

"What happened?"-I asked, though I know that they got caught by these two idiots.

"Ask them"- Jake said while pointing at those two, Charlie and Blue.  

"Huh?! Why me? It's Blue!"- Charlie said and pointed her finger on Blue. 

"Huh?! Why me too?! You're the one who put the oil in front of the door's floor."- Blue said with his widened eyes.  I give up on these two! I give up! 

They're both a headache! 

"Yeah, it's me but that's your idea!"- Charlie pouted. "And you even took a video."- I honestly don't know what to do with them anymore.  

I......I want to throw them as far as possible. My stress is because of them and not because of work.

"Blue, look!"- What now? Oh, the poor fish this time. It's silently living its life in that aquarium, for God's sake! 

""Wow, let's get it out."- They're about to touch it but I stopped them. There's clearly something wrong with their brains. 

"Stay away from that aquarium"- They looked at me at the same time. 

"Drake, we're not going to do anything weird. We're just going to put him on the floor to talk to him and we're not going to kill him, of course we don't want to be in jail you know."- In short you're going to kill him. You two looking at the fish is already suspicious. You will put him on the floor but you won't kill him? Should I drown them in that aquarium? I really give up! 

"No! Sit there and behave"- I pointed the sofa. Charlie pouted again like she's saying, she's sitting on that sofa forcibly and not because she likes it. 

"You're wife is really unique, dude."- I glared at Jake. Unique? What unique? She's abnormal! 

"Chill dude, it's not so bad to have that kind of wife. It's kinda fun."- Fun? Fun? I will definitely lose my sane in the future.  

"Anyway, what are you planning about Sabrina?"- What about her? 

"I don't know and I don't care about her anymore."-He frowned on what I've said. What? It's true.  

"Are you serious? It's your chance to divorce Charlie and marry Sabrina."- In the past maybe but not anymore. I'm comfortable with Charlie now, though it's irritating. 

"Drake"- I looked at Charlie. 

"What?" 

"We're just going to walk around."-  Then the two of them whispered something with each other. Walk around? I don't believe you. The last time you said that, you two caused a problem in the lobby and accidentally pressed the fire alarm! 

"No."- She looked at Blue like they're talking using their eyes. 

"Drake, promise we're not going to do anything weird. We are just going to capture the frog we saw flying earlier."-Next time, give me something plausible. Really? A flying frog? What am I? A gullible kid? 

"I said, no"- Charlie is making a weird face. Her personality is weird enough. 

"You still love her?"- Zeke said. I looked at him, why is he asking that so suddenly and out of nowhere? Love? She's my first love, first woman I've been but that's all. Well, about my feelings for her, that I'm not sure. 

"I'm not s—"- My phone is ringing, I took it out and it is an unregistered number but I still answered it.

*****

Jake's POV

I can hear Charlie's weird laugh again. "Don't be so noisy, Blue. Drake might hear us."-Drake is busy with the phone call, and these two are at the back of the door. I don't know what they're trying to do. 

They stood up and sat again on their seat. Blue prepared his camera, what is that for? I looked at the door because the camera is pointing there. I can't see anything wrong with the door. Weird. 

Well, these two are weird to begin with.

Then the door opened and holy mother of buckets! Where did that paint came from? Drake's secretary is now full of paint from her face to her dress. I heard the two of them laugh so hard, they even gave each other a high five. 

They are a genius with this kind of things but still an idiot. How did they do that? I didn't saw a paint earlier. I swear!

It's not locked before.Hmm, I walked towards his table and searched for the key, I even opened all of his cabinet but all I can see are papers. I even searched for the other cabinets here but I found absolutely nothing. I almost flip them because I can't find the key but I thought of something that might work.

He's pretty sturdy.....maybe an executive. But compare to Rain, his wound is the worse."Need a hand?" Rain gave me a cold stare but he's smiling. A warning not to interfere in his fight."Never mind." I walked pass by them with Yxiah. But before I could even take my final step to go upstairs Rain flew to my direction.I didn't dared to look at his face especially to meet his eyes. He might chew me alive."Hey." It's his low voice and almost a whisper. "Did..... You see something?" I gulp once and slowly shake my head."None...I saw nothing." I hate to admit it but
