Chapter 6 -So, who's jealous?-
950 Words
~Miguel POV~
That damn bastard! Doing disgusting things in his office. How could he do that? Doesn't he have any respect for work? And I guess my judgement is correct, he got caught by Jenny the slut. Should've known better.
I'm walking as fast as I can away from hell. I went there because of the papers that Xander needs to sign that our director insisted I should take. I'm not the one who should do that. I just don't know what's up with them to force me to do so.
"Wait! Miguel! Please wait!"
I quicken my phase when I heard that irritating voice. I don't want to see him and I don't want to talk to him. He disgust me.
Unfortunately, the devil caught up to me and blocked my way.
"If you don't mind, Mr. Graveman, you're in my way."
"Please Miguel! It's all a misunderstanding. I don't want to do anything with her. In fact, I told her to get lost. Please, please, please, believe me." He begged trying to reach for my hand.
Of course I winced away from him. Why is he even explaining? I didn't asked for it. I didn't want it. He can do anything he wants!
I don't know the real cause of my anger but I'm angry. And I don't need any reason.
"You don't have to explain anything to your employee Mr. Graveman. Your business is not mine." I tried to go pass him but he's faster than I am that he was able to hold grip of my arm.
I glared at him so hard he should fade while trying to take my arm away from him. Why is he touching me using the same hand he probably touched her. I don't want their virus on me. "Let go!" I hiss through clench fist.
"No," he spoke so firm. As if determined not to let go of me. "Please, Miguel, you need to hear me. I don't want you to misunderstand."
I was surprised when I felt him wrap his arms around me in a tight hug. What is he doing? Who gave him permission to do this to me? I struggled hard to get away from him but he was way too stronger than I am.
I felt his breath on my left ear before I heard him speak. "I want nothing from that b***h. You're all I want. And I'll be stupid if I let you walk out with a misunderstanding. Please love, I'm all yours. You don't have to be jealous."
Jealous.
That word felt like a wakeup call. I was able to push him away with the energy I didn't know I possess. I was seething and I really don't know why. Maybe because of him thinking that I'm jealous set fuel to the fire. I think he's the one who misunderstood things. I.AM.NOT.JEALOUS! I don't like him. So there is no reason for me to be jealous.
"Wake up dude! I am jealous of nothing. I don't like you. And I never will. So the argument about me being jealous is out of the picture. So please, shut the f**k up!"
With that, I ran far away from him for the second time. The only difference is this time, my heart is also running in a marathon, beating faster and louder than normal. And the reason is still unknown.
~Xander POV~
"Dude! Chill out. He'll loosen up eventually. No need to put a stick on your ass."
I shot Mike a sharp glare that made him shut his trap. We're at the newly open bar around the block to have some drink. I asked him to join because I don't want to look pathetic drowning myself in liquor alone.
He needs to be here. After all, he's partially one of the reason why I'm in this kind of s**t. What got into him to hire that kind of employee?
I may have been shooting daggers on his head unconsciously, or consciously, for he raised his hands in surrender. "Don't plot my death yet man. I swear I have nothing to do with it. She's already there when my old man gave me the company."
"I swear your old man is a pervert." I muttered.
His response is a really loud laugh that made others turn their heads in our direction. "Crazy." He just keeps on laughing against the loud noise but he suddenly stopped. He has a surprise and tense look on his face that made wonder what happened.
"What's up bro? You okay?"
"I'm fine. But you probably won't. So I guess we better leave now." He ushered me out of my seat but I stay still.
His words got me confused and curious.
I glanced where he's staring earlier and found nothing. I searched my eyes around that area and was frozen in my seat.
"Dude! There's nothing to see." He tried to stop me but it's already too late. I already saw it.
Standing not too far is the reason of my frustrations. So handsome and sexy. And sporting a smile I never saw him gave me. With his arm around a pretty lady that I really can't appreciate the beauty.
Miguel Stone.
The guy of my fantasy is with a girl. Smiling as if he love her so dearly.
I felt an aching inside that I never felt before. But judging the urge I have to shove the girl away and to take her place. The possessiveness I felt. And the selfishness of wanting his smile to be only mine. I know what this is called.
"Who's jealous now?" I sarcastically uttered while making my way towards the couple.
