Crazy Celestine
Two second later, Celestine emerged looking innocent. The corner of her lips twitched from stifling laughter.
"Whats the matter, Sir? she asked while raising her eyebrow.
The CEO was still overwhelmed by the burning sensation in his mouth. " Water! Give me water!"
"Didn't I already serve you a glass of water? the girl was about to walk to get the glass but before she could takeba step, the CEO had already Grasped her hand.
"Sto playing with me! Hurry up and give me fresh water! Not salt water!"
Unexpectedly the girl started laughing.when she stoped, tension immediately covered her face.
"Sorry Sir, but that's all I can give to you.If you want to drink fresh water,you better get out of this house quickly and buy water at the nearest shop. Tsk, if only the shop at the end of the valley was still there,you could buy drinking water faster. Too bad,the shop is in ruins now."
Hanz couldn't hold his anger anymore. His head had rumbled and his hands wanted to grip the collar of the girl.He had never been lowered like that.
"So you don't want to give me water?" he asked in a low, depressed tone. His sharp eyes occasionally glanced at the girls lips that were depicting contempt.
Celestine shooked her head without hesitation.
"Are you suffering?. That's how i felt while watching this placed get razed."
An irritated sigh escaped from Hanz mouth. " So you are a vengeful person? okay, I understand now. We had to retaliate." the man nodded with burning eyes.
" Thank goodness if you understand.Now what are you waiting for? shouldn't you get water immediately?"
Hanz shook his head quickly and let out a laugh." Are you not aware? I've found the nearest source of water here."
Celestine rounded.
"Here? Where?"
The girl looked around checking the surrounding. As far as she could remember, she had kept all the drinking water in the kitchen.
"Here" the CEO lifted Celestine's chin so that he could suck her mouth.
Celestine breath suddenly stopped. Her eyelid s didn't budge and her eyeballs trembled,she barely moved.For a few seconds the girl let the man's tounge play in her mouth. When she regained consciousness,her hand pushed Hanz schest and slapped him.
"You are crazy!" Celestine wiped her dirty lips " How dare you kiss me!"
"Why? wasn't it you who asked me to find nearest water?" Hanz answer while lifting his shoulders and hands. His slightly gapping mouth was still throbbing with the spicy taste.
" Disgusting! I said water, not a chance!" The girl frowned amd walk towards the kitchen.
After the door's open by a key from her trousers pocket. Celestine took a glass of water and drank.However,the burning sensation still remained on her tounge.
"Now you can feel the suffer from your spicy coffee and salted water"
The girls eyes immediately moved following the source of the sound.
"Why are you still here?! Didn't i tell you to come out!"
"Our business is not over,miss.Besides,you still haven't given me the water." Hanz glanced at the glass of water in the girls hand then switched to the water gallon.
Celestine's eyes flicker in disbelief. " Ypu still dare to ask those things? After what you did to me. "
"Didn't I already pay for it? "the CEO said casually. An index finger point to his chick. " I've Paid with this.your slap was strong enough. "
The girl was jolted by confusion. " Wait a minute! are you really an employee of the Murgz? its is impossible for an immoral and superficial person like you to work there."
The hiss into CEO'S mouth sunddenly turned into bland laughter.
"You say I'm immoral and superficial?"
"Yes! if you have moral and brain, there's no way you could enter someone's house, cause a fuss,then kiss a girl you dont even know" Celestine's eyes begin to stir with anger.
"Sorry miss.It seems you are the one with the shallow mind. I came here with good intention,but you just provoke a scene.
Celestine now shook her head. " It's so hard to talking to someone with a tiny brain like this."
"Is it true? Aren't you the one with the tiny brain? A smart person won't put a bottle of chili powder into coffee?" Hanz gaze was fixed on small empty container with the plastic seal still messy beside it.
Instead of feeling guilty. Celestine granted and folded her arms over the chest. " Tsk, I should have put two bottles in the coffee earlier."
Suddenly, the CEO stepped up quickly and pushed the girl to the kitchen cup board. With burning, eyes he cit the line of sight between them. Celestine reflexively covered her mouth with both hands, afraid that the man would kiss her again.
"It seems you are a sloppy woman,huh?
In this desolate house,you Dare to challenge a man." Hanz whisper with misterious curved on his lips.
The change of attitude was successful on lowering the girl's head.Still, Celestine round eyes peeked out.
"What do you want to do?"
Hanz grinned and enclosed the girl with both hands. " I only ask two things. Your signature on the contract and water. You're not secretly hoping I'll kiss you again, Are you?" said the man intimidatingly.
Before Celestine could think of a way out,the mans hand had already touched her waist.The girls round eyes suddenly flashed fear. With one motion,she pushed a glass with the CEO'S chest.
"This is my favorite glass don't ruin it!"she said in a choked voice.
It was only Celestine scampered out of the kitchen that the man was able to freely observed the minimalist kitchen.
"She really lived alone?"Hanz thought when he saw there was only one set of Cutlery on the plate rack. A second later, he noticed the polar bear shaped galss in his hand.
"No wonder, this is a favorite glass." he sneered as he placed the only visible glass on the shelf.
"This is the contract you want. Now, go!" Celestine pressed the folder to the man's chest.
Instead of lifting his feet,Hanz opened the folder. As soon as he saw what the host had painted, an irritated smile immediately crossed his face.
"You really think I'm a fool?" the CEO said with the great emphasis. No more patience left in him. " You think , I believe this is your signature?"
Two sma circle's that resembled eyes with a curved line that resembled a smile were now exposed to Celestine.
"Yes, thats my signature.Smiley emoticons."
Hanz blood suddenly boiled and billowed in his head.
Chapter 2
" Are you going to sign this letter or not?!" Hanz asked while holding back the roar of his breath.
"What do you mean? I've signed the letter!". Celestine said with furrowed brows. Her tone was no longer polite.
" Okay, don't blame me if something bad happens to your house."
"Wait! I've signed the letter.Okay, you can't intrude on this house anymore."
"Goodafternoon!"
Hanz left after expressing his frustration with words. It was unusual for the man to fail controlling his emotion.
"That girl isn't normal" said the CEO as soon as he get into the car. The man behind the steering wheel glanced at him .
"What's wrong?"
"She gave me spicy coffee and salt water,but not even a drop of water to wash my mouth." Hanz said with disgust.
"Is it true? then what did you do to wash your mouth?"
The CEO eyelids were suddenly frozen. The softness of the lips that he had kissed was lingering in his mind. After blinking vigorously, he handed the folder to the secretary.
"Nevermind, dont talk about that again.The important this is,we managed to get the girls autographed."
"Is this a valid signature?" sebastian brought the black ink streaks closer to his eyes.
"I told you, she's a strange woman. Now, lets go! My agenda got delayed because of that stubborn girl."
While holding back a smile, the secretary who is also the driver stepped on the gas.They left behind the girl who was peeking through the window.
"That's the consequence of messing with Celestine" she muttered with pursed lips.
A second later,his fingers rose to touch the traces of the kiss that still felt warm without realizing it, her heart was beating faster again.
"Because of that guy, I lost my first kiss" she grumble,looking down.
"Ah! nevermind, why do i regret the past. I'd better get back to practice for tomorrow's competition."
The sound of piano could be heard again.Celestine's focused was fielled with rows of notes.
"I have to make mom's dream come true. Take the trophy home and display it to the living room"
The next day,the girl came home with the cheerful face.
"Mom must be glad for I got through in the first round."Celestine mumbuled along the way.
With light steps, she entered the alley leading to her house. The ruins on the right ang left no longer bothered her mind sinced her mind had been dominated by happiness.
A few moments later Celestine's steps were stopped by surprise. The smile on her face immediately changed to scream.
"NOOOOO!"
The Girl ran without paying attention to her dress being caught in the wind. Everytime her steps were blocked by the clothes.she's slowing down,but she's not allowed to stop.
"Please.. Don't!" Celestine shout as the excavator arm smashed the roof of her house. Tears could no longer be contained.
"Stop it! Don't destroy my house!"
Heavy equipment kept breaking down the walls of her house. Half of the building was in ruins.
"No,no!"the girl who had allost arrived at the yard of the house shouted. But unfortunately,two workers intercepted her steps
"Dont go there,miss! Its dangerous!"
"But that's my house!"
"Sorry Miss, we where ordered to destroy all the houses in this area".
"Not my house!I didn't even agree to sell it! then, what are you doing now?"
"Sorry miss!". those workers draged her away.
"No! let me go! stop!"
Celestine continued to struggle,but she was still forced away from the yello monster that was merciless.
"Please....." she sighed desperately.
Unfortunately,the rakeer continue d to work.The yellow monster didn't understand that everytime it knocked down one wall, Celestine's heart was scattered with it.
"My home......"
Celestine's voice faded with despair. The girl did not have the strenght to stand up anymore. Sittjng on the side of the road she watched her house be razed. Celestine could only cry and cry.
"Excuse me,Sir" Sebastian stepped into Hanz office.
"Whats the matter? Why are you serious." the CEO asked while his gaze stuck to the documents on the table.
"I just got a report. The girls' house has been razed"
The pen on Hanz hand spontaneously stifled.After straightening his head the man blinked firmly " What did you say?!"
"Celestine's house has just been razed.Someone has sent the wrong order using e-mail from our office".
Hanz pressed his temple with one hand. "Who is that? Who dare to send that order!"
"Sorry Sir, The order was sent via your e-mail"
The CEO stared intently at his secretary. "My e-mail?"
"Yes ,Sir" Sebastian said,not daring to return his cousins gaze.
Hanz leaned back on the seat. After thoroughly reviewing the information,his bland laught sounded desperate.
"It turns out that my guess was right, Theres something wrong with the house.Then, what about that girl? any news about her? . "
"Until now, there's no meaningful news.Celestine continue's to cry over the ruins of her house. "
The CEO'S forefinger began tapping on the table.
"What would that strange girl do? Will she go on a rampage in front if the media?Or sue us?"
"Sorry,Sir. I have to handle other things.We have to quickly find the person who sent the bogus order.Excuse me."
Sebastian gave a slight bow and walked away,leaving Hanz with dozen of scenarios in mind.
"What will thag woman do?" The CEO muttered since he could not find a good guess. Everything about Celestine was complicated and unpredictable.
"What should I do?" a girl sigh while teardrops ran down he cheeks. She's been around checking the debris, But not a single object could be saved.
Photos of her mother ang father,the glasses she got for her 10th birthday, and even the polar bear that always accompanied her to sleep.Beautiful memories seemed to be destroy with thise items.
"What should I do?"
"Miss.."
Celestine turned to the side. A pair of shabby shoes entered the frame of view. With the remaining strength, she looked up at a man holding the project helmet with both hands.
"Sorry,Miss. It's almost dark. We have to go home. It's not good for a girl to be alone in a place like this."
Celestine looked back. Tears slowly began to form once again. After swallowing hard, she sighed. " You still have a home to come to,but I...I have nowhere else to stay. "
The man standing next to the girl lowered his head. He had chosen a wrong word.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to offend, But don't you have siblings?or distant family? Stay in their house for a while"
Celestine didn't reply,she was to sad to explain that she had no one to rely on.
"Or what if you asked the chairman of the Murgz Company to take responsibility. I heard that he is a wise and friendly person. Maybe you'll be able to receive appropriate compensation. "
Celestine's fist clenched tightly around her dress. An immense rage had just risen and filling her self.
"It's useless to ask for accountability.My house will not be back"
"But at least you can get some money and maybe...... a place to make a living. That's much better than lamenting a fate like this. "
Celestine was stuned. The worker's advice had slapped her face. What the man said was true. Moving was much better than being still. The person who had destroy her memories and hope should not be allowed to win.
Slowly the girl rose to her feet.
"Do you know the address of the heartless company leader?!"
The worker nodded.

Chapter 3
"What will that woman do?" Hanz thought at the middle of dinner. The rice on his plate was almost gone, but the debate in his mind was still not over.
"What kind of craziness is she going to do? Tsk, who is the person who paid for her for this play?"
"Sorry,sir. There's a call from the guard" A servant said while lowering her head and handling him a cellphone.
Hanz eyebrows rose spontaneously. "The guard?" His questions was answered by the nod from the servant.
"Is it possible....that crazy woman came here?"
Without wasting time the CEO answered the call " Whats the matter? "
"There is a girl insisting to meeto you,sir"
Hanz expression suddenly turned stiff. " Who?"
"Her name is Celestine"
A sight escaped directly from the man's mouth.
"Its totally unexpected.Why does she choose to come here?"
"Is there any honesty potion stored in the post?" Hanz Asked usjng a code.
"Yes sir"
The corner of his lips was raised mysteriously.
"Give it to the girl, If she doesn't take two glasses, then dont let her come in"
"Two glasse sir? " The guard asked as if unexpected.
"Yes, What's wring? ".
"Is that too much? this girl looks very innocent. What if the dosage is too much."
"Don't be easy to judge by appearance. Her face maybe innocent,but the true Character.....we dont know"
"Okay Sir"
Without stalling time, Hanz got up from his chair.
"Your vitamins, Sir" the servant showed some pills in the small container.
"Ah! that's right thankyou"
Without counting the number of pills provided, The CEO swalllowed them all.
" A girl come here, you dont need to welcome her. Just tell the girl to meet me in my room. "
"Your room Sir?"
"Protocol number one"
The waiter's eyes suddenly widened. "Protocol number one,Is that girl dangerous? "
Hanz arched a faint smile.
"I don't know yet. Now, hurry up and announce it. This house must be isolated by the time the girl arrives.
"Yes Sir"
In haste, the servant approach her comrades. She whispered and in an instant, people left their jobs.
'Lets see can that girl lie after drinking honesty potion."
"What is this? I don't want to drink it!"Celstine refuse taking a step back.
" Then, you must not come into this house miss"
"But i have to talk to the CEO of the MURGZ company!" the girl said pitifully.
"Then, you must willing to drink this"
Celestine grimaced. However the guard seemed merciless. After sighing in resignation, dhe raised a glass and sniffed it.
"What is this? " the girl asked when her nose caught a strong scent.
" Just drink it"
Closing her eyes, Celestine took a sip of the yellowish potion.
"One more Miss"
"One more? "
The girl frowned,but the giard pressed her hand to raise a new glass. Like it or not, she finished the drink.
As the gates opened Celestine cought. With hands holding her throat, she walked towards the main building whisch stoos majestically in the middle of the garden.
"This guy is so bad,he has such a large land. Why did he destroy my house?" Celestine muttered before hastening the steps toward the large door.
"Goodevening Miss," A servant greeted with trembling hands"Please go up the stairs then turn left. Enter the open door, Mr. CEO is waiting for you there. "
Before Celestine could say hello,the servant had already walked out and closed the door tightly. Upon hearing the sound of the key turning,the girls eyebrows lifted in surprised.
"Is this a trap? Why did she locked it?"
Celestine walked over to the door and tried to open it "Yes, this door is locked!" she sigh anxiously.
After a blink of eyes. The girl hands where tightly clenched.
"I've come this far, There's no way I'll give up"
With bodl steps, Celestine made her eay up the stairs. She was so focused so she didn't have the time to check the photos on several sides of the room.
"Whoever the CEO is,he has no right to just destroy my house"
Finding the open door, Celestine paused. after wiping her face and taking a deep breath, she nodded forcefully.
"I can't look weak"
After a second, she stomped her feet into the room. Her eyes widened when she found a bed.
The girl realize that she had come into a mans bedroom.
" Is this really a trap? "
Celestine thought as she blinked. The dizziness just hit her head.
"Welcome,Miss Celestine" a man greetes from the corner of the room. Teh girl immediately turned to the right
"You?!...."
Celestine's forefinger went up, while her mouth fell open in disbelief.
"You're the CEO of Murgz Company?"
Hanz stucked his hand in the trousers pocket and took a leiseurely stride.
"There's no need to pretend to be surprised,miss. Don't you already know who I am?"
An irritated smile appear on Celestine's face.
"Oh! I understood now. You destry my house because you're upset, because you felt humiliated,and because I was signing autographs carelessly"
Hanz folded his hands across his chest ang raised an eyebrow. " Well,you seem like a really great actress,dont you think? I almost got fooled by your acting"
"What do you mean?"Celestine asked incredolously
"Tsk, It looks like the potion hasn't reacted yet.I should have given her three glasses" Hanz muttered while scratching his temple.
"Ah! Well, let's just follow your game. How much do you want? "
Celestine's frowned spontaneously " You think my house can be replaced with your money?
Hanz nodded proudly. "Of Course , isn't that what you're after? Otherwise,theres no way you could have bothered to come here and pretend angry like this."..
Celestine's chest burned to CEO'S words. Her breath was now raising,while her lips began to tremble in anger.
"You think I'm pretending?!"
Tears began to gather without warning. "Do you know what's the house mean to me? It's a legacy from my parents. All our memories are there,and now! you have destroy them all!"
Celestine closed her eyes for the sadness and outrage had put a lot of pressure on her brain.
"That house is my life,you destroy it! you destry my life!. Do you think that my anger was fake?!"
Hanz scratched his earlobe which didn't itch. The tears on Celestine's red face seemed so real. He wanted to aplaude her successful acting.
"Then what should i do now? You want me to rebuild the house? Maybe....the bricks can be cemented.Wood ang planks can be joined with nails,or your favorite glasses can also be glued. A thousand cracks won't be a problem,right?!"
Celestine's ferocity had no place to peak. A second later,the attacked the CEO with her long fingers ang blunt nails.
Chapter 4
"You have no heart! Instead of apologizing,you insulted my house and my memories!"
Celestine grab Hanz hair brutally. Even though, he was grimacing,the man was still able to stand up straight. His hands did not hesitate to grip girls wrist and freeze the attack.
"What Am I sorry for? I'm not guilty"
Celestine's annoyed chuckie rang out.
"You're innocent? You think i believe it? Aren't you the one who gave me threat? Do you forget?. " the girl protested as he jerked her hand.
"That was just a saying,It wasn't me who destroyed your house"
Celestine start jumping up and down, adding strength to the pull. But the CEO
still gripped her wrist.
"Let go! I don't want to be touched by a cruel bragger like you!!"
Hanz twisted Celestine and locked her from behind. With arms crossed over her chest,the girl could do nothing but jump up and down. Even though, her head hit the man's chin several times and the dizziness blew her eyes even more, she still struggle as best she could.
"Let go!"
"Enough!" Hanz started to get overwhelmed by the madness of his guest.
"Let go...!"
The CEO could no longer be patient. With his much greater strenght,he draged the girl unto the bed,then crushed he like a cop catching a criminal.
"Akh!" Celestine groaned as a huge explosion stuck her head. Not because of a collision with the mattress but because of something stirring in her stomach.
"Huek!...huek!..."
Hanz widened spontaneously " Are you going to throw up!"
"Huek!..."
"Not here!"
Hanz took his guest to the bathroom. He shuddered as he watched Celestine vomit out of the toilet.
"Its a right choice I gave her two glasses" Hanz spoke to himself.
After washing her mouth into the sink, Celestine look down and caught her breath for a moment. After that. She turned around to reveal her pale lips and red chicks to the CEO. There were no more word from her mouth.
"Do you want to attack me again?!" Hanz challenge as Celestine staggered toward him.
Miraculously,the girl shooked her head and walked passed him.
"Hmmm. Has the honesty potion reacted?"
With her eyelids half open, the girl looked at Hanz. .
"Home"
"Oh! you want a big house? or a fancy one?take it easy. But, tell me who told you to opposed Murgz Project?"
Celestine shooked her head weakly and repeat the same word again.
"Home"
Hanz forehead frowned unhappily "What does it mean?"
"Home"
A second later, Celestine's leg lost its strength. If the CEO didn't catch her, she would have fallen on the floor.
"Ah, i should have given this girl one glass". Hanz regretted as he carrt the girl and laid her on the bed.
Standing up ang pinching his chin,the man observe Celestine's appearance, messy hair,pale lips,and dirty dress. The girl was totally messed up. .
"What is this girl's purpose?!" the CEO turned his thoughts to another perspective.
"IS it possible that this girl is really Innocent? "
A second later, Hanz shooked his head ignoring his words.
"The innocent girl can also be used by the competitors of my company and sent her to screw up the project. They must already know that this girl is crazy. "
The CEO approached and observed every detail on Celestine's face.
"When sleeping like this, she's pretty too".the man did not realized that he swallowed hard.
Suddenly the cellphone on the table rang. Hanz grabbed it and checked the notification on the screen.
"From the unknown number?" His eyes rolled to checked in all directions. " Is it the threat again?"
Without wasting time,the CEO read the message.
"Let me guess,You must given the woman the honesty potion and now, she's asleep"..
Hans fist were tightly clenched again. With a heavy breath,he starred at Celestine's Innocent face.
"She was indeed a messnger. Tsk!"
The celphone in His hands rang again.
"Then, have fun! but,be careful dont let the girl be pregnant. Not only will De Vera fall,but also you from the CEO position. "
Hanz Snorted angrily.
"What does it mean by having fun? Does this person think that im a jerk?"
After putting the cellphone on the table,The CEO turned to Celestines bag on the floor.
"Why is it so hot tonight? Even though i was finished showering. " Hanz muttered as he poured the contents of Celestine's bag
Notebooks,wallet,cellphone and musical nutation paper the four thing that attracted his attention.
"She's a musician? or just pretending to be a musician?"
Hanz threw the paper to the bag.
"What is this? her hand writing is terrible" the man commented as he open the notebook.
"The woman must practice writing. Or Maybe.... its not her who wrote this book"
Hanz Unhesitatingly threw the book into the pile of useless items. after a blink of eyes,His hand open the girls wallet.
"It looks like she's in need of money.Poor her"
After a second,the mans dinger were already holding Celestine's Id.
"So her birthday is next month.Tch. She's not as young as she looks. Her face really decieving"
After returning the card Hanz closed her wallet and switched to the cellphone.
"password?"
With a lopsided smile hanz walked back to Celestine and pressed her thumb against the sensor.
"Stupid!" the man muttered in satisfaction,the he sat at the edge of the bed and began to check every file on the phone,messages,phone logs,contact numbers,even to photo and video galleries. His eyes widened when he saw number of recorded videos.
"Is this daily reports?" the man who has still suspicious
of Celestine guess,without doubt he click on the latest video. The girls sweet smile immediately greeted him.
"Hello,Mom! today,I joined a competition its only the first round but i still have to look pretty right".
The girl stood up and step back until her entire body fit into the screen.
"I relly want to wear this dress. But, this is too sexy. There are many male workers outside. Im afraid that my clothers will provoke unpleasant things. "
Celestine picked up another dress from the bed.
"Then ,the secknd option is this long dress. It looks more polite right? Would you like to see me wearing it?"
A second later, a girl turned around and started striping off the dress on her body. Hanz blood suddenly rustled. Even as Celestine finished wearing the second dress,his eyes were still rounded into the screen.
"How is it mom? This one is more elegant,right?".
after checking her appearance into several directions,the girl came closer again...
"Pray for me mom. I will not disappoint I'm going to win this one. "
Celestine's smile concluded the video.
Swallowing hard,Hanz turn his heas to the sleeping girl beside him.Without a word he put the phone on the table and began to look at Celestine's body with interest.
When he regained conciousness.Hanz found his hands stroking the girls sensitive area. As fast as a flashed,he pulled his hand away and stepped out of the bed.
"Jeezz .... whats was i thinking?. Whats wrong with me?.
Suddenly Hanz phone rang again. In an instant, he read the message from the threat. ..
"It is the most potent stimulant.Dont even try to fight back! Youre heart will not be strong. "
