CHAPTER 80

1053 Words
With my knees wobbled, I managed to make my way out of the school where I'm sure Viel was waiting. I remember how I almost fall off my phone when I got a message from him at 4 p.m. sharp that he was already waiting for me. It was simply a ''I'm here," text I got from him but my heart went wild. Maybe he's done meeting with my dad and other businessmen who have something to do with investment and such. I was walking and my phone when I suddenly bump into someone and the 'cause of the hard impact made me lose my balance. " s**t!" I cursed and I thought I'm about to fall to the ground but then someone grabs my waist preventing me to. I gasp. That was close. Still shocked at what happened but I manage to immediately stand up straight to look at the guy who was holding me, he was also probably the one I bumped into. "I'm sorry, miss----" He stopped for a moment when he saw my face. I frowned, he's no way near familiar with me, he's tall and I must say he has the looks too, but anyway...that's not my concern right now!... Viel's waiting! "You're the daughter of Mr. Tyson, right?" He asked after a short moment. I frowned even more. Does he know me? But I doubt if I already saw him before. " Yeah," I simply answered. I tilted my head to the side as I look at him, he was blocking my way. " I knew it. By the way, I'm Gabriel...Gabriel Martinez," He said as he smiled at me, he even extended his hand for a quick handshake. I pursed my lips. I was supposed to walk past to him right now 'cause Viel was already there to fetch me but I got curious with that surname he said where it's so familiar. "Martinez?" I asked casually. "Hmm, yeah... I'm the 2nd son of Marcos Martinez," he smiled at me showing his white set of teeth while saying it. My eyes narrowed a bit. I can't believe this, so he's my brother of Bella huh?... What a small world. Well, I heard that Bella was the only girl among Mr. Marcos's children but I never met them in person. They're older than me too, and this man in front of me seems like he's in his mid 20's... I stood up straight and nodded at him, well... They were one of our investors and also one of the Bandini's partners in business, my parents would literally turn ballistic if they'll ever know that I was being a b***h to one of their colleagues. I was about to excuse myself but before I could open my mouth he speaks again with still a smile plastered on his lips. "Uhh, I bet, you'd already know my sister... If I wasn't wrong..." He implied. I nodded as an answer, he was towering over me and he was playing with the car key in his hand. I wonder what he's doing here at our university anyway, it seems like he's already a professional... "Uhm, I'm sorry for stealing some of your minutes, I think you have to go...Karina right?" He looked at me with a smile on his face... I shook my head, I don't like him calling me like that, I don't even know that he knows me but maybe I was just too careless with the other people around me that I don't even know them. And only Viel calls me with that name. " It's KC." I corrected. I saw how he smiled shyly as he nodded. "Oh... Sorry, yeah... KC, nice to finally meet you talked with you." He let out a soft manly chuckle while staring at me. I nodded once again. "Bye, see you when I see you..." He smiled as he watches me walking away from him. I was half running to search for Viel and it's not hard to find him 'cause in the distance, I saw his modeled car parked on the side and he was leaning on his car talking to someone on the phone he's not even aware from so many glances from girls and some was taking him a pic secretly. I shook my head as I started to come closer to him. This man, tsk...tsk. Is always oblivious to the attention he just gets from girls here... Well, he's like that as always. I'm a few steps away from him and he was still focused on that someone he was talking to on the phone. I pouted while watching him but I was taken aback when suddenly his beautiful set of serious eyes flew and darted right straight to me. It's funny how his simple gaze weakens me. "Get in, Karina." He commanded. I hissed, how sweet of him... "I'll call later, dad... Alright." I heard him say to the person on the other line. Oh... So it's Mr. Boromeo he's talking to, When I get into his car, he immediately started the engine and close the car window... Maybe he noticed some of the girls stealing pics of him... "Seatbelt, Karina." He seriously said. "Okay..." I sighed when I rested my back on the seat... It's so quiet... He's so quiet while hes driving. I sighed once again. " Viel..." I mumbled. He didn't answer. " Viel," I called him again and I saw his thick brows furrowed before he asked me. "What is it," he simply responded. I wide smile formed on my lips. I ditched Crisha to be with him, well... It's worth though. " I'm hungry..." I softly stated. I bit my lower lip... It's true anyway, I'm hungry. He was maneuvering the car and answered me back... " Where do you wanna eat?" He asked using his baritone voice. I don't know if he's going back to Seattle, well, perhaps... And he's still in his casual clothes right now. A comoflouge and a black plain V-neck shirt. And of course for additional killing assets... His hair is in a man bun... As always. "Anywhere," I answered nonchalantly. " There's no restaurant named 'anywhere' Karina." He answered back. I roll my eyes and chuckle, as expected... He'll always be as serious as always.
