21. Not A Coupon

“Alright, I’m going to hand you the result of last week’s quiz.” Lila walked towards the corner table. Handing a stack of paper to the student who sat behind it. For some moments, she watched the stack spread quickly as each student took the paper with their name on it. “Before we end today’s class, any question?” Two hands lifted. One by one, Lila listened to the question that was asked by her student, then carefully answered it. After making sure there was no other question to be asked, she dismissed the class. It had been a month since the new term began and five weeks since the University gala, Lila was still adjusting with the tight teaching schedule. She felt her life rotated around teaching and studying for her research. Although, the research was going nowhere, since she didn’t have the blood sample from Andrew yet. He said he will give it to her. But up until now, not a single drop of his blood was given to her. Due to her busy schedule, she couldn’t steal a time to go to

22. In The Arthur Tower

“Arthur and Arthur founded by Arthur Mac Miller, Senior and Junior. In 1889. Wow, old.” Susan read aloud what was shown on her laptop screen. On Susan’s laptop screen was the company website, they were reading its history. John suggested that they looked into what kind of enterprise Arthur and Arthur operated. Trying to reason on why the company wanted to invest their money in Lila’s research. “Bank of Framery, the National Bank is under our Arthur.” Susan continued. “So is the largest resort in our country, The Island.” Her eyes lightened. “Oh, and blocks of commercial districts at Mayor Street, also the hotel, Arthur’s Icon. Wow…” Susan’s eyes grew wider, knowing the hotel was all over the country. “And…” She checked Lila and John’s attention. “And the amusement park.” “So, their field of business was nowhere near science.” Lila concluded. “It seems half of the country belongs to them.” Added John. “I don’t understand, I thought the University gala invites people with money onl

23. Damsel in distress

“I’ll be at the lobby by the elevator, okay?”Lila only gave Andrew a single nod then she walked faster to the nearest lady’s room. She regretted it, drinking the two glasses of ice tea in Andrew’s office. Making her bladder feel tighter in Andrew’s car on the way to the mall where they agree to meet Barry.Feeling relieved, Lila went to wash her hand. In her mind, she needed to go back to Andrew quickly and finish the things in here.She told Andrew about her afternoon schedule. He promised to take her back to the University before her class began. So, she rinsed the soap in her hand excitedly.“Lila, what are you doing here?” Lila heard a familiar voice when she looked up, wanting to reach the paper towel.Reaching the paper towel, Lila observed her surroundings through the reflection of the mirror in front of her. Next to her, a tall slender woman holding lipstick and staring at her was her cousin, Carla. A similar figure as Carla stoo

24. Cafeteria Breakfast

The next day, early in the morning Lila was sitting alone in her office lab. Intending to update her research data and write a very good report about it. Instead of doing any of that, she was staring at the distance.In her hand was the contract of conditions between Andrew and her. Something was bothering her. Not the contract though, the reason behind its existence tickled her mind since leaving Barry's office yesterday.Yes, they knew each other for thirteen years, she admitted that. Still it wasn't like they were in each other's life for that long, because they learned each other's name just recently. Why was Andrew willing to fund Lila's project from his super deep pocket?Why? Was it because of his rare blood type which happened to be Lila's base research idea? Because he cared for his continuous well being.Yes. It must be because of that. It was safer to conclude it that way.There was no way he had any romantic feelings for her,

25. She's the one (1)

Andrew's step halted when he was entering his office. "Max, what is he doing here?""Who?" Max looked sideways. A man was sitting on Andrew's plush sofa with a laptop on his lap. "Henry, what are you doing here?" Too puzzled by Henry's sudden appearance, he unconsciously repeated his boss' question."Working." Responded Henry without taking his eyes off of the laptop.Andrew lifted one brow, then exchanged a look with his assistant, Max. He resumed the stride towards his fancy desk."Here's the analysis reports that you asked." Max handed a document and an ipad to Andrew. "I have freed your afternoon schedule.""Okay, thanks." Said Andrew as he started to study the document and the ipad while Max silently stepped out, back to his desk.After some still and calm moments, Henry put his laptop on Andrew's desk. Forcing Andrew to look up and giving him a calm questioning look."Help me develop this game. I've completed it, i

26. She's the one (2)

Lila stood next to Andrew outside of a two storey building. It was situated in the exclusive district of the city where many passersby wore fancy clothes whether they were tourists or locals.The building had no name on its wall, only a number."You'll know soon." Answered Andrew to Lila's inaudible question. He pushed the door open and let Lila step inside first.When they were having late lunch in the noodle house, Andrew said that he got something to give to Lila when they got back to the city. And it definitely wasn't his blood because she was about to enter some random fancy building which obviously was not a place for blood keeping.Inside, Lila saw a big shiny silver placard mounted on the wall behind the reception desk. The writing that was forged in it was Magnolia Gallery.What kind of gallery? Lila's eyes wandered around the flawless reception area but found nothing that could represent the place as a gallery.Andrew l

27. Volunteer work

Saturday morning came. Lila walked down the stairs carrying a simple bag across her body."Where are you going?" Asked Uncle Malcolm once Lila took the seat next to him on the round table. He noticed the small bag which wasn't her usual bag for work.Lila put an egg and two big sausages onto her plate. "I'm going to do volunteer work. It's part of the conditions.""What conditions, darling?" Aunt Becky poured milk into Lila's empty glass."Thank you, Aunt Becky." Then Lila told her aunt and uncle about Andrew and their conditions towards each other regarding her project research."Where exactly are you going to volunteer? And this Andrew, will he pick you up here?" Came Uncle Malcolm's series of questions.Lila swallowed the sausage. "I've been there before with him, it's called Caring House…"PRANKAunt Becky's fork fell onto her plate. Uncle Malcolm lifted one brow, while Lila furrowed."You mean Caring House by our mysterious crown prince?" Aunt Becky yelped.Right. Lila forgot tha

28. The possible crown prince

Andrew parked his car right next to the car where Henry, Andrew's cousin, had leaned on. The car which Lila recognized was the same car they drove the last time she and Andrew visited Caring House."Lila, what a pleasure seeing you again…" Henry walked closer towards Lila with arms wide open."Act normal!" Andrew told his cousin as he pushed him lightly, stopping his intention."I am normal." Henry tried to go near Lila again, but Andrew's lean and muscular body blocked him. He rolled his eyes and groaned at his cousin's overprotectiveness."Hi, Henry." Lila grinned, Henry grinned too and waved. The two cousins' interaction was fun to watch. Then she turned to the two people who also leaned on their car which parked next to Henry's. "Hi, Maggie. Hi, Barry.""Hi too, Lila." Barry greeted back, still leaning on his car.While Maggie came to Lila and clung on Lila's arm, beaming. "So happy that you're here. Now, we can make our own

29. Steal it

"What's the atmosphere? Can we see it?" Asked a cute little voice to Lila with his cute little curious eyes.Lila smiled. "Atmosphere is the gases of nitrogen and oxygen that surround our planet earth."The little boy frowned. "What's nitrogen and oxygen? Can we see them?"Damn. Lila took off her glasses and massaged the bridge of her nose.She started to doubt her understanding about nitrogen and oxygen. Why did these children want to see nitrogen or oxygen? How could she make them understand that nitrogen and oxygen were gases, and that they couldn't be seen?A laughter bursted when Lila couldn't say a word as she stared at the little boy with a mixed expression on her face.Instantly, Lila's sharp glare directed at Henry, the laugh came from him. Then when his laugh subsided, he threw a glance at Lila and shook his head in amusement."Mike," Henry called the boy's attention to him. "Remember what I told you about fart
