WHEN YOU'RE JEALOUS

That was the last thing I told him then I turned off the call. Where do they come from and are they always together? He didn't even take me to the meeting with his clients so I didn't say goodbye to him when I left. Maybe that Mari was with him so he didn’t take me.
"Where have you been? Sir Levi has been looking for you before. He thought you were gone home,” Kat asked me when I stopped on her cubicle.
“Just having coffee. Have you come before?” I asked her as I looked at Levi’s office.
I could even see her smirk when I looked at her again so my forehead furrowed.
“Yes, Rae, with Ms. Marichu. She's still inside, she hasn’t come out yet,” she replied to me.
I didn't answer her, instead I went straight to his office without knocking on the door. When I opened the door I found Mari next to Levi who was in the swivel chair while bowing, I could clearly see her soul because of her bowing. As if Levi is discussing something to her.
When they saw me, Levi immediately stood up while that ‘Mari’ grinned to one side. I lazily looked at Levi who immediately attended to me.
"I'm just discussing something," he said softly to me so I nodded.
"It's OK. Do you need anything? Coffee? Tea?” I casually asked him which made him furrowed his forehead.
"Are you okay?" He asked me in surprise so I just nodded and shrugged.
"Yes, why?"
“Nothing. I thought you were angry. Can we talk after this? I don’t need anything, I just need you here with me,” he comforted me so I just nodded.
He guided me to the sofa near his table. He told me to just rest while they were having discussion and he immediately returned to his swivel chair, not minding Marichu’s posture that I think she meant to show that to Levi. When she looked up at me, I immediately stared at her. I just took a magazine there and pretended to read.
I don’t know why I feel this way. When I went home that night, then I just realized everything. I did something wrong that night. I should’ve listened to him when he was calling me but I was immediately preceded by annoyance and anger. I feel like I know very little about him compared to Mari.
"So, let's proceed to the contract signing tomorrow?" I heard Mari ask Levi so I looked at them.
I raised an eyebrow when I saw how she sat down on Levi’s table on purpose. She crossed her legs and finally exposed in front of the latter.
What is she doing? Was she trying to seduce my boyfriend in front of me?
I saw how Levi immediately looked away from her and focused his gaze on me so I almost burst out laughing.
“Let’s have a meeting tomorrow about that. The Chuas are hard to talk to. I need to eat first,” I heard Levi said to her and was about to stand up when Mari stopped him.
I raised an eyebrow when I saw her slide her hand over Levi's chest. I could feel my patience shorten because of what I was seeing, but I let that go first because I wanted to see what he would do. I want to know how low this woman can go when it comes to him.
“I told you, let’s have lunch toge—”
“I know what you’re doing, Mari, so stop it. We have already talked about it and I hope you understand,” Levi told her emphatically and left her there to go to me.
When he approached me, I immediately stood up and met Mari's gaze. I smirked at her then wave at her.
“Bye, Ms. Mari,” I teased her and pulled Levi out of his office.
I feel like I won today.

“Are you okay? You've been quiet before. Don’t you like your food?” Levi asked me again while we were having lunch.
I immediately looked at him because of what he said and also because of how I felt. Suddenly I felt something strange in my stomach so I couldn't finish eating.
"I'm not really used to eating pasta," I told him honestly because I really didn't like pasta before.
“Why didn't you tell me right away? I will order another meal,” he told me quickly and called the waiter immediately.
When he finished ordering, he immediately turned to me and held my hand. Damn, I feel like I’m about to vomit or something but I don’t make it obvious.
“Are you sick? You are pale. Talk to me, Lumiere,” he said softly to me and lightly placed his hand on my forehead.
I just shook my head and quickly drank the water. I tried to calm down and look at him again.
“What did you and Mari talk about?” I asked him directly and ignored what he said.
He sighed violently and looked at me intently.
“I want to talk to you about what happened last night at the party but you keep on ignoring me, Lumiere. That happened a long time ago, I swear to God,” he explained to me while still holding my hand.
I honestly don't care about that yet. I can see how much he avoids that woman. I just don't really understand why she came back when it happened a long time ago.
“I know, Lev, but why did she come back? I’m asking because I don’t want to think of it anymore. I want to tell you everything I’m thinking,” I couldn’t help but say to him because I felt like something was really wrong.
I saw how he slightly smiled at me that made me furrowed my forehead. I think this idiot is cheating on me.
“You’re so hot when you’re jealous,” he uttered.
I stared at him and violently withdrew my hand from him.
"Oh, god. Suit yourself."
