The Runaway Bride

Chapter 19

As we enter his house, my eyes never got tired to amaze how beautiful his house, everything you saw inside is carefully designed and detailed.

"Your house is beautiful" I said.

"Really? This house is just my second home" Reagan said.

"... And this house is exclusively for your girls only" not a question as I face him the way he looked at me as if I say something offended.

"You are the first woman who stepped here." he said and pinched my nose.

"Ouch!- sure?" Reagan just chuckled.

This house is quite big compare to our house.

"We are your parents?" I asked while slowly walking around the living area.

"Mansion" he simply said.

Wooah! They have a mansion I wonder how it looks like how big their mansion is.

There are many people out there who really wished to lived like a princess that kind of princess who doing nothing just enjoy the life not a typical princess who has so many rules and also ruled a country.

Just like me, I used to imagine myself being a princess and lived my life to the fullest.

"Before the force wedding to happened everything was in place but those plans are ruin after you Runaway" he said.

"Maybe I have a veey good reasons why I'd do that?" I looked at him and waiting for him to answer.

"Babe let's sleep I'm sleepy" he said and hugged me.

"Why don't you just tell me?"

"It's complicated for now Astrid, we'll tell it to you slowly" he explained.

This is one of the reason that my trust to them became less. Life is full challenges and secrets. My experiences can tell that, my memories was lost and until now I don't have any Ideas what my life is before this happen, and until now my life are filled with secrets.

"How complicated Reag?" I keep on asking him until he will gave up and tell me everything.

"Okay, I will tell you some but for now let's sleep please" he pleaded now.

"Find"

The other day went smoothly, we shared the same room. And base on him, we used to sleep together before and I'm scared of sleeping alone in a big room.

"Are you sure they want to work with me?" I asked Reagan.

I know how annoying it is for someone who's not really talkative to asked a couple of questions. Reagan decided to give me work in their company as his secretary for the meantime.

"You don't have too talked to them if you're not comfortable, besides I won't allow you to roam around inside the company" he said with authority.

His voice is full of authorities. Wearing black pencil skirt, white and a spaghetti strap inside my black coat and one inch black heels, makes me more confident and that I would give myself a good impressions. The only thing that bothers me is some of his workers are probably will not like me

"I'll be bored and sucked for sure if you won't allow me to be with them even in my break time" I said and following him walking out the room.

"I will allow you astrid but for limited persons only" he said and face the mirror beside the door of our room.

"I want to have a friends" I said.

"Don't be stubborn astrid"

I keep on defending myself to him that I wanted to have a friend, but he doesn't want, he's too territorial.

When we arrived at Huxley Group of Company all of his employees from ground floor until we already on the final floor where his office located are looking at us.

"Good Morning Sir" the sexy woman greeted Reagan, the only person who have the guts to greet him but Reagan didn't response.

Jerk!

"Good Morning" I greeted her and seems like se don't like the way I greeted her.

"Good morning" the woman besides the mean girl greeted.

"I'm astrid" I said.

Reagan already went inside his office.

"Another woman to trash off" the mean girl says.

I'm just looking at her turning around and sit on her cubicle.

"Don't mind her Astrid, she likes Sir Reagan but Sir doesn't feel the same way" she said and laugh a bit.

"O-okay"

"Anyway, I'm queeny" the nice girl said.

"Your name sounds pretty" I said.

"Yeah a queen who doesn't have a king" she said and we both laugh.

Every time I encounter new faces I wonder how many friends of mine that I forget because of my amnesia.

"Reag"

"Hmm?"

Reagan was really focusing on his laptop and papers. I don't have any Idea what is he doing there, but for sure that work is really difficult.

"You want help?" I asked.

But still he doesn't show any interest in what I say, maybe he doesn't want me to disturb him. I examine his face even the smallest parts of his face are perfect, how could I forget this kind of man? He's kind and everything that a woman wants name it, he all have it.

Instead of doing nothing I search a book on his bookshelf. I am so bored now I thought he would give a work to do here.

"Babe, can you call queeny" He said without looking at me.

"Okay"

I looked for queeny but she's not on her work place. Walking towards the elevator when someone bumped into me.

"Sorry"

"Sorry" we both say that.

"No, its find" I said.

"Are you new here?" He asked.

He seems not working here, the way he looked he's not that typical workers in a big company maybe more than that.

"Yes, I'm astrid" I said with smiley face.

"I'm Aiden" he said and take my hands as a signs that we already know each other.

"What is your position here?"

We're standing in front of the elevator and sometimes giving a space for those who are going out.

"A secretary?" I'm not really sure what Reagan wants me to do here.

He chuckled. "Maybe you're not ready to take that position"

"I'm ready, Reagan still busy and I don't want to disturb him" I said.

"Oh, he's..." Aiden didn't continue what he was going to say when someone cleared throat behind my back.

"Hey! Mr. Huxley" Aiden said and approached Reagan who is looking at me.

He glared. "Where's queeny?" He asked me.

He even don't looked at Aiden who is talking to him,this man is really a jerk.

"I can't find queeny" I said.

"She's your secretary?" Aiden asked.

"Yes and my girlfriend" Reagan straightly said.

Aiden looked so shocked he didn't expect what Reagan will tell about me. And maybe they're not used to it because Reagan has so many girls around him.

"Yes, I'm his Girl friend no benefits you know like a siblings" I said.

I know what will Aiden think, but that's not matter anymore, I'm not a Multimillionaire woman who deserves to have like Reagan status in life. I felt pain in my chest while saying that we may have a relationship before and that will not be counted in the situation like this.

"You are single Astrid?" Aiden asked.

I noticed Aiden is something like me, he really asks questions without thinking who is with him or who would be offended.

"Yes and Ah- excuse me first I will look for queeny" I said without looking straightly on Reagan's eyes.

And unfortunately queeny just arrived, I can't even go down to looke for her and get off in front of Aiden and Reagan.

"Ah-queeny Re- I-I mean Sir Reagan is looking for you" I said.

I talked to queeny while walking towards the office.

"Where have you been?" I asked her.

"Comfort room" she simply answered.

I arranged his table and queeny are sitting down on the sofa provided by the office. His office is clean and the space is like the combination of my room and Bella's room. The color that combined in all areas of his office is gray and black that's a bit messy, but the way it is painted it looks like an art.

The black double doors opened Reagan is seriously looking at me while Aiden is smiling at me. They are the example of two moods of the day... A happy and frown mood.

"Queeny, get the papers on the table and guide astrid on how to do it" Reagan directly command queeny.

I am still standing right beside his table and waiting for him to talk to me but then he just pass in front of me like I'm just nothing.

"Astrid come here" Queeny called.

"Let's have a dinner later tonight, here's my phone number" Aiden said and gave a blue card.

I just smile and nod at him.

Queeny and I already outside and the only moment I deeply breathe. I realized that I was not breathing properly in his office and my heart is beating like there's a race competition inside.

"Are you okay?" Queeny asked.

"Yeah" I said.

I thought this will be my chance to start a new life and be open to everyone, but I'm wrong this is just part of my life that everyone will want to ruined.

Being in a Relatioship with someone that your mind already forget is difficult. I can't even remember everything about us If only I knew about us maybe I can fight for us and if I do really love him why I still have doubts on ny mind.

"Did you ever fall in love queen?" I asked queeny while filing some folders that we got in Reagan's office.

"Yes and still in love" she said.

"If you have an amnesia and you forget about him, do you still love him?" Queeny stop from doing the work and face me.

She pointed her heart. "Mind can forget but never this" she said.

I want to remember my past but my mind is not cooperating. If my heart can still remember why I still have doubts.

"If your heart never have loved on him the moment you open your eyes and know you had forget your memory... you just lost your trust to him" Queeny added.

"I trust him but my mind still having a hard time to trust them" I said.

"Are you saying you are that someone who has amnesia?" Queeny asked.

I nodded.

"Oh my!! For real??" She asked her reaction makes other workers attention be on us.

"Yes, please tone down your voice" I said.

"And who is that lucky guy?" She asked.

I just looked at Reagan's office to give her a clue.

"Is it S-Sir Reag-an?"

I nod again.

"What the hell astrid?! We've been longing his attention but, someone already owns our imagination husband" queeny is just whispering but, the way she talk it seems like she wants to shout.

"That is the reason why I do not trust him, there are so many girls out there who wants to be with him and no wonder Reagan will like them" I said.

"That's impossible Astrid when we heard that Sir will going to marry his interest to woman became less" queeny said and sounds convincebly.

"Became less?" I frown because of curiousity.

"That means someone still going here to see him?" I asked.

"Yes, and Addison is in the list" she said and pointed out Reagan's office using her poity lips.

My eyes immediately saw Addison enter the office without knocking. That bloodsucker!

"All we thought Sir Reagan and Addison will marry each other but, we heard it wrong" queeny added.

"They said..."

"Astrid?"

Aiden interrupted our conversation. I didn't noticed him coming closer to us.

"Still working?" He asked.

"Yes" I simply answered.

He looked at the folders that we're working at. We nearly finishes what we are doing, quenny is looking at Aiden face and looks like she is examining him.

"I'll fetch you at 7 pm sharp, is that okay?" Aiden said and waiting for my response.

"O-okay I'll call you the moment I'm out"I said and smile.

There's nothing wrong if I'll try to be with someone I just met, maybe this will be my new life as I remembering some of my past.

My goal is starting a new life while trying to reminicse my past.

"This folders with pink sticky note put this on Sir Reagan table and the yellow put this above his bookshelf" queeny said.

She guide me on how to work on the papers and how to manage Reagan's time from his meeting until what time will he end.

"Use the tablet for checking his sched and whereabouts" queeny said.

I really enjoy to be with queeny she's way talkative and we did share some of our experiences.

I suddenly smile when I remember her reactions when I say about my relationship to Reagan.
