Chapter 38 Plan

The past few days have become normal after we confessed, not only did I avoid the teasing but I was used to them looking like that. That was also the last day I went to the mansion because we had things to fix, Zeke and I hadn't been able to talk properly for three days because it was so busy. I don't need to talk to him all the time, just simple text will do. He never forget to greet me or remind my schedule.
It was five o'clock when I got to Aurora Street, the earlier brisk walk spontaneously slowed down because of what I saw. It was sitting outside the gate, busy pressing the cellphone that looked like it was playing, it was looking at the screen very seriously, not caring about its obvious sweat because it was wearing a black polo. Wondering why he's here I didn't think of that, I can't blame him, we haven't seen each other for three days and since he's Zeke, he can't stand it.
When I finally got close to the front of it it deliberately stopped playing, slowly looked up and its eyes widened. "Are you doing that?" I asked then I felt his kiss on my forehead.
"Just playing, wait a minute," he snout then put his arm around me.
"Why are you here?"
"Date. Let's date." I just shook my head as he winked.
It was a miracle that he didn't ask me where I was going. When I opened the gate, he closed it on his own. When I immediately opened the door it was as if I was riding in a cloud when I felt Zeke lifting me from behind me, it was dark around but I knew we were just behind the door. I quickly flipped the switch so it was easy to turn on the light, it gasped in shock so I quickly pushed it.
"Are you planning something on me? Huh?" I asked as he immediately shrugged.
"My intention?" avoiding its gaze then he loosened his necktie.
"You picked me up, you didn't even turn on the light, do you think—"
"I saw a big dog, there's a breed. It got lost, I was scared, maybe later I got through the gate so I ran, I suspected it," he snorted, I believed.
That's why I heard a dog barking when I entered. The boss always lets it out to defecate. It turned on all the lights, he wasn't scared but he used to do that kind of thing especially since we're just two people, he still respects me afterall, even though he's so close to me.
"Are you hungry already?" I asked here then turned on the tv.
He grinned but his eyes were just staring at the photo of my siblings. "Will you cook for me?"
"Yeah," I replied then went to the living room.
Somehow I won't be ashamed of him, thanks to Grandma Crising. I never thought I would be able to swallow my pride within a year of staying in the bicol, since I grew up with all the material things in me.
"Really? Let's go grocery first."
"I bought it when I left the mansion," I replied then leaned on the kitchen island.
I pulled out the chicken and potatoes, along with other ingredients. It came then took the things to use, I took the honey that I made sure was still fresh, I just bought it this morning.
"Adobo? Why is there honey? Ah, okay, got it! I want that thick one," he whispered while gently stroking my ear.
I just stepped back and started taking care of the ingredients, just staring at what it was doing me and occasionally parting my hair, I do not know why he is so inclined to move it that I do not like at all because I tickle strongly on the side of my head. While we waited for it to boil, he prepared the dishes to be used, there were times when he just stared at me and simply teased me.
I noticed that he looked back and forth at my cell phone, picked it up and walked out of the living room. He didn't see anything there, so I didn't have to worry.
"I insist," he said immediately with a spoon.
I left it with him and sat down. It even wrinkled when he smelled it. "It looks delicious, it's really different when you're inspired," it made me raise an eyebrow.
Excuse me? I just don't want to embarrass him especially since I know he's good at cooking. And one more thing, the ingredients are the flavor of the cooking not the inspiration.
"My chest, yours is the head," it said making me laugh softly.
"There's no chicken head there, it's just my thigh, dead hungry," I whispered in the last part.
He doesn't want to take the breast part away from him, I don't know if I'll laugh because he loves the breast, while I'm in the head, especially in chicken and fish. We ate quietly, I didn't hear anything and my cooking looked okay.
"I have something to say," it began.
"Hmm," I replied while chewing.
"I'm going back to Thailand again, that was the last project. I took a bite to add to my savings," he said normally.
"I thought you were done in the past?"
"That's why. There's a second one. Fred also accepted but Lucas didn't because he accepted someone here right away. It's a pity, it's a big amount Niks."
"What are you saving up for? Why do you seem to need a lot of money?" I asked desperately.
He's just amazing, I know engineers like him make a lot of money, and it's also impossible that the Roux couple didn't save any money for Zeke, plus what Sevein gives to his brother. So I can't imagine where he would use that huge amount.
"In our family." My chest throbbed fast, I could feel my chewing slowing down as I forced myself to be normal. It wasn't looking at me, still busy shelling the chicken.
"The time will come when we will have a family, of course, as long as my body can save me, what if I weaken, what can I give to our child? I can't rely on Mom and Dad , to your uncle. All of our children should have a house so that there is no jealousy, then when we get older, we will live in the vacation house that I will build, then our future grandchildren will visit us, isn't that great? " its long comment.
My mouth was almost covered because of what he said, I can't believe he had a plan for us right away while I was still fighting the fear I was feeling, I admit it's not that easy to give full trust to someone once upon a time broke that.
How is he able to control what my brain says? Because of what he said I would rather just marry him right away and do such things.
Watch your words Zeke, I can't easily controlled my heart. I took a deep breath and then drank some water because I had finished eating.
"I'm coming," I said here.
It stopped drinking water. "Why? Seriously Well, I don't have a woman there, and I'll call you every day. You don't have to leave your job just to come with me."
"Excuse me? I won't leave my job for you either, my work is just over so I'll come. I have nothing to do here."
"Oh? You mean you don't really have anything to do?" its making sure I nodded.
Last time I went to school yesterday, I left the Archery Club because I couldn't handle you either, and one more thing, I need time for myself.
"In case the flight is open—"
"What the hell! Why tomorrow right away?!"
"Just, I'll take care of everything. I'll help you pack now, then I'll take care of telling my uncle. I'll take care of your ticket, make sure you come with me," he said then took my plate.
"Are you serious about tomorrow? Why do you like to rush?" annoyed I asked.
He just wants to hurry. He just laughed and then he presented to take care of the kitchen, I arranged the things that I would bring because it looks like we will be able to stay there, until the end of their project, I agreed because I don't want to rot here.
My eyes caught my cell phone which I noticed was charged, that's what he did so he kept looking. "Are you sure about those things?" he asked as he immediately entered the room and stood in the closet.
"Yes why?"
"Did you bring your pajamas?"
"Yes. I shouldn't bring underwear."
"Hmm, okay? That's mine. It's too late. Go to sleep, I'll pick you up here tomorrow at six o'clock, don't use your cell phone anymore, close your eyes immediately so you can sleep," he said.
"Okay."
"I'm leaving. Good night. I love you," he whispered then kissed my forehead. "Don't take me. I'm lying down, I've already alarmed your cell phone. Go to sleep."
