Chapter 28
MY BOSS AND I
*He is cold but I'm humorous*
Stella's Pov
It's already late in the night but Damian has not been found.
It's already 12:00.
Some of the men come in.
"Have you found him?"Asks Mr Merkian
"No boss. Young master has already left the country. His flight took off as from 10:30pm" says one of the men.
What?
He left the country with Jacinta?
"Where did he go to?" Asks Mr Merkian in rage
"He travelled to Africa but we don't know where exactly he is going to" said the man
"Listen and listen good, I don't care where he is in this world. Just go and search everywhere and bring Damian home. And about that girl, I want her brought to me alive! Cage her if possible!" Says Mr Merkian and I just like this man.
He can be a good team mate but we will only do that after marriage.
I ain't letting go of you Damian!
And you Jacie, I know just how to make you come into my trap.
I will get rid of you soon!
"It's already late Stella, I told the maid to prepare the guest room for you" says Mr Merkian.
Why should I sleep in the guest room when Damian's room is around.
"Can I sleep in Damian's room instead? I miss him already" I say and I fake my tears.
"I would let you in but Damian locked his room with a passcode that he only knows. Just use the guest room" says Mrs Merkian.
Damn! Damian!
"Okay mom. Thanks. I'll inform my family that I'm sleeping over" I say and the maid leads me to the guest room.
It's my first time sleeping in the Merkian house.

It's been a day without Damian. I can't even go out to meet my friends for dinner.
They keep commenting about Damian cheating on me with that Jacinta!
They don't believe that Damian is my fiance.
I have to do something to make our relationship go viral on social media.
But what do I do?
Yes! I will look for Jessica first.
She will bring me to Jacinta!
I saw Samson leading some people to a new mansion in Silver Estate.
I'm sure they are related to that Jacinta and that's where I will look for Jessica first.
I know I will find her.
Get ready for me Jacinta!
You have not seen the last of me!

Jacinta's Pov
Damian and I have now arrived at Dar-es-salaam Tanzania feeling exhausted but excited.
I just need to take a good rest on a comfy bed.
"Mian and Jacie?" Asks a taxi man holding a board with our names as soon as we step out of the airport.
Mian is holding my hand, afraid that I might get lost in a foreign country.
"Yes that's us" says Mian and the man is taking our bags to the car trunk.
"My name is Titus kigosi. I will be your everyday driver for this one week that you will be in Tanzania. I will take you to anywhere you want to see in Tanzania. As for now, I think you are so tired and you need to rest so I will take you to your hotel" says the man and drives us off the airport.
His English kinda sounds like Swahili but one can understand it so well.
He speaks one word after the other, not quick.
"Thank you" both Mian and I say in smiles.
"You can just lay your head on my shoulder and rest. I don't mind" says Mian and that's just what I wanted.
I place my head on his shoulder and he pulls off his jacket and covers me as I lay my head on his shoulder.
"That's so romantic of you sir. You sure look together" says Titus and Mian smiles with a thank you.
His shoulder is comfortable but I don't know why i feel like I want more.
I keep moving my head all the time and Mian notices.
He is now wrapping his arms around me and my head is on his chest.
I like this.
But it doesn't last long since we have already arrived at our destination, Johari Rontana hotel.
Wow, it's very beautiful and looks expensive.
Mian and I head in with Titus who introduces us to the receptionist as the couple from Rio.
"Welcome Sir and Ma'am. Here are your keys, room 211 belongs to you. My attendants will help you with the luggage" says the receptionist giving us the keys.
"Are we sharing one room?" I ask that loud and the receptionist looks puzzled.
Then I realise that we are a fake couple.
We have to share a room as a couple.
"Baby, you don't have to be shy. I know it's our first time sharing a room since we've been away from each other for long. We have to get along so that after marriage, you won't have to be so shy" says Mian just to save the situation and I'm trying to smile.
"My girlfriend is shy" says Mian squeezing me closer to him and we take a move as the receptionist and Titus smile.
The attendant with the luggage goes towards the elevator but I get afraid.
No elevator for me.
"I'll use the stairs" I say and make a move but Mian holds my hand.
"Just take the luggage upstairs and we will follow slowly. My girlfriend has an elevator phoeba so I'll take the stairs with her" says Mian to the attendant and he nods.
He is so sweet right now.
Awww!
He is holding my hand as we take the stairs step by step.
I can't stop looking at him and all the sleep I had just disappeared in thin air.
I don't even notice how fast we are moving on the stairs and now we are here.
"Did you wait for long?" Asks Mian to the attendant.
"No it's okay sir" he says and Mian tips him as we head in.
"Just press 1 on the telephone if you need anything" he says and leaves as Mian and I head in with the luggage.
I can't believe I will share a room with a man!
This is just....crazy....i don't know.
Woah! The bed has been decorated with petals that form a love and towel flamingoes.
There are red candles decorated in the room.
I don't know why I'm shivering in fear.
Damian has placed his bag aside and he is now standing so close to me.
I take a step backwards but he moves towards me again.
"Mian..." I say as I keep moving back but Mian keeps moving towards me.
"Don't you think it's the right moment?" He asks and my heart wants to pop out of the chest right now.
"Right moment for what?" I ask
