Chapter 13
MY BOSS AND I
*He is cold but I'm humorous*
Jacinta's Pov
Damien and I have arrived to his real house.
Wow! This dude is stinky rich.
"Do you live here alone?" I ask as we are stepping in.
It's a flat house with an underground parking lot.
The path way to the front door is separated with a Bougainvillea glabra hedge.
It's so beautiful. He is dull but with a flowery sense.
There is a grass carpet at the door front and it's just amazingly beautiful.
"Who else do you want me to live with? You are the first girl stepping into this house. You can brag about that but never tell anyone!" He says firmly and I roll my eyes.
Such a big ego!
I step in the house after him and oh my.
Someone should just see this place. It's just wow!
The living room is huge with a set of expensive Sofa set, a home theatre just like I want, a 15inch flat screen and a small glass table with a vase on it.
The kitchen is on the left side of the living room and the dining room is on the same side too.
The walls of the house are well polished with flowery paintings.
"If you are done checking the place out, take the room on the left and go to bed" he says and goes upstairs towards the room on the right.
This place reminds me of my old life.
It reminds me of how I never lacked anything.
I'm moving towards the room on the left and I hear Damian talking to someone over the phone.
"Get them here early in the morning by exactly 6am" he says and hangs up.
I don't know who he is talking to neither do I care.
.............
I've been going through the things that Jessica packed for me but I can't find any of my night dresses.
There is no cloth to change in.
Aaah how am I supposed to sleep in these clothes?
I'm also hungry, I've not had supper yet.
Someone is knocking on the door and I'm sure it's Damian.
"You still haven't changed?" He asks as soon as I open the door.
"I have no clothes to change in" I say and he scratches his head.
"It's all your fault. You dint allow me to get some clothes for myself. How am I supposed to sleep in these?" I ask as I pout my lips.
"Come downstairs for dinner. Samson brought us some food. I'll sort that out later" he says and goes away.
He is so ignorant but I'm glad I will satisfy my hunger.

I thought Jessie packed some few clothes for her.
Now I'm stranded. I don't know what to do.
Let me call Dominic, he can give me a solution.
"Hey bro whatsup?" He says as soon as he picks the call.
"I brought Jacinta home for safety as you had advised" I start
"She agreed?" He asks in disbelief.
"It wasn't east bro but she did" I say.
"So what's the problem now?" He asks
"I told her not to carry any clothes since I would get some for her but...she has no clothes to sleep in right now. What can I do?" I ask and I just don't know why I care about her.
"That's tricky and funny bro but also easy to handle. Just give her one of your shirts bro. You said she is short and slim, she can surely fit in your shirts for a night" he says
What? My shirt? Is he crazy?
"I'm not sharing my shirt with her!" I say firmly and just then I notice her coming downstairs.
I quickly hang up and sit quietly.
She sits beside me pouting her lips angrily.
Her hair is still tied up in a messy ponytail.
The food is still unpacked and I push it towards her.
She is looking at me angrily but then she is unpacking the food.
I don't why I feel free around her.
I can do anything around her.
Just like right now, I've plugged my ear phones on and I'm listening to music.
I've never done that infront of anyone.
My parents dont want me to have anything to do with music which is my passion.
Whenever I take my two hours off, I go to my secret room, I sing ,dance and play video games.
I'm a good singer by the way and a good dancer too.
Just that no one knows about it.
She is passing the food towards me and I start eating as I keep playing magic on my phone.

Jeez! This dull boy listens to music too.
But how can he do that alone?
I think he has no one to listen to music with.
He has no one to have fun with.
He lives here alone with no one apart from his bodyguard.
Should I help him?
Naaah! He is too proud to allow me to help him have some fun.
But I can do it anyway!
He can't listen to music alone when I'm around.
I've just unplugged his ear phones and snatched his phone away.
"Hey what are you doing?" He ask but I put the music on loud.
"If you want to listen to music on your ear phones, do it in your room not infront of me. I want to listen too" I say and he sits back silently.
He is listening to the latest hit song, calm down by Rema.
"You listen to these songs too?" I ask but he doesn't answer.

I think she also feels free around me.
How can she just snatch my phone like that?
"You listen to these songs too?" She asks but I feel embarrassed right now and I can't answer.
I just keep looking at my phone and where is she going?
She is standing at a distance from the table and she is doing the calm down dance challenge.
I dint know she is such a fun girl.
She is whining her waist seductively infront of me.
Is she trying to seduce me?
No girl has ever danced liked that infront of me.
She is good at whining.
I feel like dancing with her right now but No!
I turn off the music and continue eating.
"You are so mean!" She says and we eat silently.
..........
It's time for bed and I don't know if I should give her the shirt to her.
Something tells me to give her the shirt but another side tells me not to.
She isn't my girl nor my family.
Should I give her?
