Chapter 29
MY BOSS AND I
*He is cold but I'm humorous*
Jacinta's Pov
"Right moment for what?" I ask and he moves in lower to my left ear and his lips brush off the ear alittle.
My body is weakening to that touch.
"Right moment... to sleep. You said you are sleepy right?" He says and pulls away smiling.
How dare he tease me like that?
My strength is all back and I punch his stomach.
"Fuck! What's that for Jacie?" He asks but I don't want to know.
I'm holding the sheet and I pull it off making the petals fall on the ground along with the towel flamingos.
I spread it once again on the bed and head to the bathroom.
Mian is just looking at me holding his stomach.
Maybe I hurt him but that should teach him not to mess with me anymore.
Shit! I started showering without taking out my bags for a night gown.
This means I'll have to go back to the room in a towel.
Jacie why?
Now Mian will see me in a towel!
What it it falls off infront of him like in movies.
I won't let that happen.
"Mian, can you please leave the room for a while?" I ask of him as I open the door of the bathroom slightly exposing my head.
"Why and where should I go to?" He asks back.
"Mian I want to change and I can't do it infront of you" I say
"What will the attendants think when they see me outside waiting for you to get dressed up? We are a couple remember" he says and he's got a point but what about me?
"So what should I do?" I ask and he stands up from the bed.
He is coming towards the bathroom door where my head is stuck out.
"Stop right there!" I command but he doesn't until he is standing next to me on the door.
"Just get in here, drop your towel and get dressed up" he says
"What? You shameless man!" I start to yell but he pulls the door open revealing me in a towel.
"I want to use the bathroom as you get dressed up. Stop thinking of nonsense in your silly mind. I won't do anything to you unless you ask if it!" He says firmly and pushes me out as he heads in for a shower.
I pout my lips but then smile when I think of my silly mind.
I think alot.
I reach for my bag, take out a pink pant, a baseball short and a white top.
I'm off to bed so I won't be using a bra.
I don't want to put on a night gown since it is short and exposing.
It's too sexy for me to wear it while I'm sleeping with a man in one room, one bed.
No way! I'm taking the bed and he will sleep on the couch.
There is a couch at the further end of the room.
I quickly get on bed and pull the blanket over to my shoulders.
The night is cold but I can't find myself to sleep.
Maybe I slept too much on the plane.
Mian comes in the room in a towel and i quickly close my eyes faking my sleep.
After some minutes, the silence is broken.
"You can stop faking your sleep now. I'm done dressing up" he says and I open my eyes.
"How did you know I was faking?" I ask
"Which person sleeps closing their eyes so tightly as if they are scared?" He asks back and yeah he caught me.
I'm just not good at faking anything.
"Mian I can't sleep" I say and sit up on the bed.
"You can arrange your clothes in the closet then" he says and I think it will do.
"Why ain't you in your bra?" He asks looking distracted by it and I cross my hands on my chest.
"I can't sleep with a bra on. It's not good for health" I say and he nods turning back to his bag.
We are now placing our clothes in the closet silently until we are done.
We dint carry alot of clothes since it's just two weeks.
"Mian, did you inform anyone at the office?" I ask I sit up on bed and he sits close to me.
Why does his body have so much effect on me!
"Yeah I did. I told Justin to handle all the meetings for me and Dominic to check the office for me" he says
"Oh okay" I say and now I'm speechless.
"You said that you fell in love but never saw man before. Then how come you know Dominic?" He asks
"Dominic is a friend I met years ago when I was in highshool. We went to the same school but he was blind. I used to take care of him and we bonded as siblings. We even went to church and swore to be siblings forever so that's why I'm looking for him" I explain
"But it sounded as if you love him and want to make him your boyfriend" he says
"Yes i do love him since he is my brother but I can't make him mine. He actually was to help me look for the man I love but we lost contact so that's why I'm looking for him" I explain again.
"Where is the man you love?" He asks
"I don't know" I say honestly
"How is that?" He asks
"I just don't know how he looks like nor where he is right now nor his real name but he used to be in UK" I say
"So he was like a crush?" He asks
"It's complicated Mian. You won't understand this. Have you ever been in love before?" I ask and he smiles
"Love? Love is everywhere and it can be found by anyone" he says and lays down on bed.
"So you found it?" I ask again
"I did. Twice, but it broke me like hell. I was just 15 when I fell in love with Bianca. She took my first everything" he says
"Meaning?" I ask
"My first kiss, my first hug, my first sex. Infact she liked sex with me so much. I dint know why until she reached her last stage" he explains
"Last stage?" I ask
"She had a brain tumour and had just one year to live. She was scared to tell and so she just wanted to do so many things before she died. She told me about it when she had just six months to go. For five months, I stood by her side, I took care of her but when she almost died....." he explains and it shows that he is struggling to hide his tears.
"Her parents took her to England, where she died and was buried. I couldn't even attend her burial" he says
"That's so sad. Didn't it affect you?" I ask
"Affect? For 6 years....6 years Jacie, I couldn't move on. It affected me greatly and I had to go through rehabilitation for all those years but it dint work until I met The great Mr Clegg!" He says and with the mention of my dad, my heart skips abit.
What did my father do to him?
How did my father help him?
