1080 Words
I'm sorry I... I .. I do not feel same about you" she says.
She saw the pained look in his eyes.
"Is there a chance that you would love me?
" No" she swallowed, her heart ached.
"Do you feel anything for me? He pressed on.
" Nothing" she forced out the words.
The lie burned her, cos from the moment she saw him, she'd felt something,up till this very moment she still felt it.
But she could not admit it.
He turned away from her and she used that moment in escaping.
She avoided him for days.
She switched duties with another helper at the house.
Lena could attend to him, while she took up Lena's work.
"Why doesn't he even look at me?
Lena asked as they both stayed, in the kitchen together.
" You want him to look at you?
" More than just looking "Lena adjusted her gown.
How happy she'd been to switch duties with Mariel, but it really wasn't paying off.
She had to content herself with just seeing his face.
Mariel on the other hand, concentrates on the food on fire.
Her thoughts on Revy.
"What would you do if your boss told you, he loved you " she texted Laura.
"I'll tell him, that's he's actually out of his mind" Laura's reply came quickly.
"Be serious tho" Mariel texted a laughing emoji.
"Did your Boss confess feelings for you?
" I'm asking you a question "
" I think it's something that has happened "
Mariel groaned , Laura knew her so well.
"Okay it happened, and I don't know what to do" she sends a crying emoji.
"I'll say you should quit, cos he doesn't love you, he just wants your body"
"You make me think my body is very desirable"
" Of course, you're beautiful, he has eyes"
Mariel sends a cute blushing sticker.
"What do you suggest I do?
" Quit before it's too late"
" I can't, it was so difficult to get this job"
" Do you like him?
Mariel stopped typing.
"Of course not" she finally texted back.
"You hesistated" Laura sends a laughing cute sticker
"Good night Laura" Mariel texted and kept her phone away.
She covered her face with her pillow.
She and Revy had not talked since the moment in his room.
They only stared at each other, and Everytime he stared at her, warmth filled her belle.
She has not been able to stop thinking about him ever since.
Which was In one word, disastrous, she had to stop thinking about him.
She had to.
"Mr Revy has asked that you serve him "
Lena came to the kitchen the next day with a frown.
Was she ready for this?
Was she ready to face him?
She walked to the living room, where she saw him with a lady very close to him..
Much more closer, she was almost in his arms,as they sat side by side.
"You really are beautiful" Revy leaned his face close to hers.
"I keep forgetting that we have to talk about the company"
The lady giggled.
She slides her finger on his legs.
"We could meet up"
"In one of my mansions"
Mariel's felt something burning in her chest, as this was going on.
He didn't for once regard her.
The feeling as she watched him with someone else, was painful
It was hurting her.
It was hurting so much.
She didn't want to be here, watching him with someone else.
"Well could you get us more toast? Evelyn likes it"
Revy flashed a cute smile at Evelyn.
Mariel felt something twist painfully in her chest.
"Wait" Revy says as she turned to go.
"Is there anything you need apart from toast, she'll make it"
Revy's words hurt, she wasn't supposed to feel this way.
She was the helper anyway and should be treated as one.
"Well nothing much,I just need you" Evelyn says as she moved closer to Revy.
Mariel couldn't take it anymore, she execused herself to the kitchen.
She felt a painful burning sensation in her chest, there was no way that she was jealous.
Yet she could not stop picturing Revy and Evelyn.
Why did it hurt?
She couldn't even concentrate.
She finished off her work for the day, and was about to go home, when strong pair of hands grabbed her pinning her to the wall.
It was Revy.
Shivers ran through her with just the way he stared at her.
"What are you..?
" I love you Mariel"
" Revy.... you have Evelyn"
" You honestly didn't feel anything when I was with her?
"What do you expect me to feel?
Revy moved in closer.
"Revy" she tried pulling away
He holds her waist, pinning her against the wall, there was no escape,
He stares from her lips, then to her neck, without warning, his lips were there.
He kissed her neck softly,
"Re..vy , Re..vy" she let's out a soft sounf
"Revy, someone will see, what are you doing?
"Let them see" he trailed a line of kisses down her neck.
With his hands, he tried to get under her legs.
Mariel's leg weakened, she couldn't bear it.
She could feel the pool of heat in between her legs, her thumping heart.
"Revy please" she tugged at his chest, trying to push him off.
He drew her close to him in an embrace.
He held her.
"I've never been so turned on" he whispered in her ears.
" Do you feel it? He held her tightly against himself, his lips on her ears.
She melted in his hands,
She felt everything, she felt his hardness against her.
"There's no way I'll let you go"
He held her.
" Don't send in your resignation letter cos I won't allow it, till you tell me you love me "
Revy whispered again in her ears.
Mariel had already melted in his strong arms, her face flushed, she could not bring her face to Meet his.
PRESENT
Mariel stared at the waves, she had to remember every one of her memories with Revy.
Memories that were built on lies.
She could remember each and every one of them, before blotting it out from her memory for good.
She could remember the moment, when he was on his knees, his eyes charming, his voice sweeter than honey when he had said.
Exactly when he said the words.
"Please will you marry me?
