Hello, CEO! Don’t Play With Me!

[54]



“I can’t believe we ended up here,” Giselle says with a laugh. The atmosphere of the cafe, which she describes as serene, is set to jazz music. There aren’t many visitors, either because the location is a bit hidden, or because the cafe offers a private space. I don’t know. What is clear is that Giselle enjoyed her time here.

“I hope you don’t mind.” Andrew smiled widely.

“How could I object?” Giselle still maintained her laughter. The dish in front of her also made her eyes sparkle with happiness. Especially with the dish that had just been placed on her table. Chocolatte Croquembouche, which was the cafe’s favorite. “I can’t wait to eat this snack.”

“Eat it. I hope you like it.” Andrew chose to savor his coffee cup. Not just savoring, but distracting himself from constantly staring at the girl. Not to make Giselle uncomfortable while spending time with her this time.

Andrew was sure that their meeting now would be short-lived. And he wasn’t going to waste any time.

Maybe God was being kind to him. For what He inflicted on Andrew’s rigid life and always full of rules, the man was met by a girl who made his spirit revive. although he did not know the end of his feelings, he only relied on the desire to talk casually with the girl.

Andrew recalled an incident that had accidentally crossed his life. At a time when he didn’t feel like moving like a robot; getting into Fania’s car and allowing her to drop him off. As a grown man who cared about women, shouldn’t it be his job to drive Fania? But why was that not the case today.

“You’re too much, sir,” Fania said with a huff but then opened the door for the man who was still loyally standing in the lobby. “Just today I was kind enough to give you a ride over and over again.”

“Only twice if I count.”

“You’re like a poor guy riding in a girl’s car.”

“I’m poor,” Andrew said simply. He sat down comfortably and asked Fania not to talk to him. In fact, while in the lobby, they had unwittingly unloaded most of their burdens. They both laughed at how their lives existed in this world.

“I don’t want to talk to you either,” Fania said with a sardonic glance. Then she let out a long sigh and let her car waltz across the asphalt of Centralia Street. Her destination was clearly this ungrateful man’s apartment. His smallest wish was to go home to his beloved, who had just told him that Sean was worried and waiting to hear from Fania.

No one spoke afterward as if the thoughts that were running through their minds and heads were already very busy. There was no time to start a conversation, especially one related to marriage. And at that moment, the girl who had been the center of Andrew’s attention since they first met, came out of a shop. If you look closely, the shop mostly sells chocolate snacks.

“Drop me off at the front,” Andrew said immediately, leaving the driver and Fania somewhat surprised.

“What’s wrong?”

“Just get off.” Andrew prepared to open the car door and as soon as the car slowed down enough to stop, he got out in a hurry. “Thanks for the ride. I’ll definitely pay you back later.”

Fania chuckled but was curious too, but she did not voice it. She preferred to respond to Anderw’s words just now. “I’ll send you your delivery fare, sir. You should pay it immediately.”

Andrew only responded with a thumbs up in agreement. He didn’t say much or argue, which made Fania wonder what was making him behave so strangely. “What’s going on, anyway?”

The man’s steps were really fast heading in the direction they had just passed. When Fania realized what was happening, she could only laugh. “What’s wrong with speaking frankly. I’m not going to interrupt anyway.” She asked her driver to hurry up and head for home. Going home ahead of her mother was the right choice. Resting her tired body before facing another day that would leave her heart filled with aggravation.

While Andrew, who was very sure of his vision of the girl, made enough distance so that the girl who seemed to be sparkling looking at her shopping bag, would not be surprised. but there was no way he wouldn’t reprimand her, right? despite the appearance that Andrew thought was very different from when they met at the ministry building, but Andrew would not be mistaken.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The girl had thick glasses and a faded green hoodie loosely wrapped around her slender body.

“Evening, Giselle.”

“Oh, my God.” Giselle blinked in surprise. She did not expect anyone to recognize her in a place like this? She looked at the other person intently. Letting out a sigh of relief even though she could not take too casually the appearance of this man who seemed to be smiling in front of her. “Andrew?”

“Yes, it’s me. You think I’m a ghost?”

Giselle chuckled irritably. Her eyes quickly glanced around and fixed her big glasses. At least, the mini mala appearance was a bit conspicuous but no one would know that Giselle was wandering around at night just for the sake of her exhausted chocolate snacks.

“What are you doing in this area?” asked Giselle with a sigh of relief. There was nothing to be suspicious of, including the paparazzi. She didn’t want to get into trouble when none of the news was pointing in a negative direction.

“Accidentally passed by.” Andrew stepped closer. “Are you alone?”

Confidently, Giselle reveals her shopping bag. After all, Giselle can be sure that Andrew knows what she likes.

“I didn’t think to send you cookies right away.” Andrew looked regretful. He sent only two jars to taste first. He was afraid that they wouldn’t suit Giselle’s taste even though the chances of that were slim. Before the paper bag left with Andy passed to Giselle, Andrew had done his research.

He does intend to send it again but not anytime soon. Besides not knowing Giselle’s schedule and activities, her concentration was also broken taking care of several things. He should have made it a special agenda so that she wouldn’t have to go out looking for her own snacks.

“I’m sorry,” Andrew said sincerely.

“Hey,” Giselle laughed. “Why apologize?” She looked at Andrew intently. “I only bought a few. Brina would scold me if I bought too many.”

“I’ll ask the chef to make one for you right away.”

Giselle shook her head quickly. “No need to bother like that, Andrew. I’m not the problem.”

Andrewa did not care. He still took out his cell phone to call someone, but his movements were halted by Giselle’s question which immediately made his heart grow fonder. Perhaps if a mirror were to shine on his face right now, his nose would be flattened because Giselle’s words were completely unexpected.

“While you’re busy with cookies, why don’t you join me for a night out in Centralia? I don’t think a hot chocolate would be bad.”
