CHAPTER 7: Beautiful Land

1003 Words
Mr. Imari picked me up at my office. After talking to Erika, I confirmed that I am in love completely! I can not believe it. I can say that I felt relieved when I shared this to Erika. I didn't think she's good at giving advices, especially in love. She is not just good at being a secretary. She is amazing! But I was unable to tell her my deepest secret. I guess it would be a huge thing to share to others. Even though I trusted Erika a little, I still must not tell her my secret. This is not yet the right time for the world to know about my true color. Anyway, I decided to accept Mr. Imari's invitation of joining him, since my schedule was not loaded and I honestly wanted to see the place where we would build the Getty's resort. "That place is quite far away from here. We need a plane to get there," Mr. Imari beamed while driving, "But don't worry because I've already prepared this day for us," He said. Ugh! Why does he has to act this way? He's so positive, and it turns me on! I responded with a smile, "Hopefully I will be impressed by that place. I do not want to be disappointed, Mr. Imari." I spoke in a cold but satisfied tone. Yes, I can do that. "Trust me," he stared at me for a moment, "I'm sure you'll like that place." He smiled at me foolishly again. I don’t want to see his smiles. I know I already have feelings for him but I don’t want to tolerate that. I don't want to see his smiles. "Let's just see, Mr. Imari." It actually took an hour before we arrived. He was right, we even had to take a plane to get to the place where he wanted to build the Getty's resort. We formally spoke in the middle of the flight because there were two guards guarding us. And I have no intention of flirting and being embarrassing. "Here we are!" Mr. Imari joyfully jumped out of the tricyle we used towards here. He looked like a child as he jumped. "Do you see it, Mr. Fuentes? It is nice, isn't it?" He asked with his extremely wide smile. Because of what he did, I secretly laughed. He definitely looked like crazy. I got off the tricycle and paid the driver. We had to take a tricycle to get here because we didn’t have our car with us, we left it in the city. And there are also no taxis in this area, that was why we were forced to commute. I felt the fresh air as I walked towards where Mr. Imari was having fun. He was right, the views here are beautiful, there are not too many buildings, peace is present in here and this is a perfect place to build a resort. "What now, Mr. Fuentes?" he gently stabbed my abdomen area using his pointing finger. I recoiled a little because of the strange tickle it brought. He looked like a child when he acts, cute. "Are you impressed with the surroundings?" "Hmm?" I grabbed my chin and pretended to think, “Not so much,” I joked then walked away from him. He snorted and immediately blocked my path, "But the place is beautiful," he pouted like a child, "What do you want Mr. Fuentes?" He asked once casting a compelling stare into my eyes. I was stunned by that question. I smiled slightly and took a step closer to him. He seemed shocked at what I did, we were only a few inches apart from each other. I stared at his red lips and immediately turned my gaze into his eyes. What if I say he’s the one that I want? Ugh! What the hell am I thinking? Am I going crazy? I took a deep breath as I shook my head, and I grinned, "Just kidding," I put my two hands inside my pocket, "I liked the place. You chose well, Mr. Imari. I'm proud of you." Because of what I said, his wide smile resurfaced. "Yahoo!" He raised his fist as if winning some battle, "I told you, you will love the place!" --- "Ugh!" Mr. Imari carefully massage his own knee, "It's been a tiring day," he complained. We are in the car now, we're on our way home. We really enjoyed the surroundings, and forgot about the time. That is the reason why we're not yet home though it's already late. We wandered further and strolled and didn't care about the things that makes us worried. Today is a happy day, I was happy by being with Mr. Imari but I didn't show it. He is somebody that is fun to be with though he looks like a child when he acts but that's not a big deal for me, in fact he's cute to look at. He is naughty yet jolly, I'm sure many girls are chasing after him. "Mr. Imari, let me just ask," I turned my gaze to him, "Aren't you busy today? You spent the whole day just to take me on a tour to the place we went." He let out a smile before answering, "Everything is under control, everything is fine." "That's good. I know you have a lot of businesses and a lot of people to talk to," I bowed slightly, "Just in case something in your schedule fails, I'll blame myself." "What are you talking about, Mr. Fuentes?" he tapped me on the shoulder as he laughed, "You have nothing to worry about. In fact, I even want to repeat this opportunity... with you." Why on Earth he was so good to me? Was he aware that he was slowly making me fall? And what if I fell? Would he catch? Would he fight with me? Would he face the critics with me?
