Judgment day is coming. When Cruz walked into Ran's living room, with a smile, Cruz looked right at the back of the woman who had been in his car for more than a week. A woman who ignores her phone, a woman who never replies to her text messages.
Noa sat there, busy chatting with Cleo. Noa did not notice that a starving ferocious lion had been staring at him since.
Cruz walks leisurely and lays down the wine he brought for Ran and Cleo's wedding anniversary.
"Hi Cleo's... How are you?", Cruz greeted Cleo with unnecessary stale remarks. They just met yesterday.
" Hi Cruz", Cleo stood up and greeted Cruz kindly. " Have come?".
Noa was shocked to hear Cruz's name being mentioned. The beautiful woman turned around and found Cruz standing behind her. Struggling with hungry and vengeful eyes.
Their eyes meet. Cruz smiled kindly towards Noa then unabashedly she greeted.
" Hey, Noa. Long time no see".
***
Noa was shocked at Cruz's greeting. In his heart he was determined to pretend he didn't know Cruz if he ever met.
Noa does not think Cruz is one of Ran and Cleo's friends who are also invited. Noa just bengong see Cruz.
" Noa, do you know each other?", Cleo asked Noa.
"No", answered Noa. "Yes" Cruz replied.
Noa and Cruz answered in unison but not a single voice, making Cleo stare at them in bewilderment.
" So?", Cleo waited for a conclusion.
" Cle, he's my best friend. Very well, we even spent the night together", Cruz answered without shame.
" What? No, it was just unintentional", Noa refuted quickly.
"Ah... I-i understand. Have you guys ever dated?", Cleo knots.
Cruz smiled meaningfully, as if intentionally giving a mystery to Cleo. Making Cleo clap her hands as if in disbelief.
Noa looked at Cruz as if asking Cruz to explain to Cleo, but the one in the face even went away with a bite.
Noa breathed a breath of patience. " Cleo is not like that. We have nothing to do. We are just friends, yes friends", Noa explained with a heavy heart.
" Hm... Yes, I understand Noa. Cruz is a good boy, he looks arrogant but his heart is very good", Cleo promotes Cruz with all her heart.
Noa smiled at her best friend. "huh, well from where. He was always threatening and dismissive. Cleo must have been fooled", inner Noa.
The dinner went well. Noa was always trying to be normal with Cruz trying to tease her. Like sitting at a table, Cruz chose to sit next to Noa. Then Cruz purposely stomped Noa's foot hard under the table. Then Cruz put a lot of vegetables on Noa's plate. Sometimes Cruz forced the meat into Noa's mouth.
Cruz's behavior is like a child that makes Noa upset and surprised. As Noa finally walks into the kitchen to pick up a few cans of beer, Cruz shamelessly follows her from behind. Of course making Ran, Jim and Cleo stared in surprise at the two of them.
Arriving at the kitchen Noa turned towards Cruz and spoke in annoyance.
" What do you want?" said Noa when he confronted Cruz.
" Your attention" Cruz said again.
" ha? Crazy huh. Why am I watching you", Noa said annoyedly. Then Noa opened the refrigerator door to get a beer. Cruz quickly closed the refrigerator door again.
" Because we've spent the night with Noa" Cruz said clearly and densely.
" We just spent the night doing nothing Cruz" Noa said sternly. "So don't bother me. Moving aside", Noa opened the refrigerator door violently and took out quite a number of beer cans from there.
" Noa, you have to take responsibility for what you did to me" Cruz said. Inexplicably bothering Noa was a pleasure in itself for him.
" Responsibility for what? ", noa put the beer can on a nearby table because she knew this conversation would be long.
" The car cleaning costs are so stinky because of your vomit, your broken sponsor shirt and my messy commercials because of my swollen lips" Cruz said honestly.
" For a moment why are your lips so swollen?", Noa asked fearfully. He thinks maybe he hit Cruz with something.
Noa was silent as if thinking about the events of that night. Then he closed his mouth as if shocked by his own thoughts.
" You're seriously doing that?", Noa whispered.
" Yes.. You're yelling... Candy candy. I like candy... And cup... You kissed me not exactly eating my lips" Cruz said dramatically.
Noa held his heart. "Dam... It seems true.the story is very convincing", inner Noa.
" and... Because you did that to my pretty, expensive lips. I've had to crack many times just for an advertisement. Spending my time and energy", Cruz began to pay his losses.
"But you.", Noa was a little suspicious.
" What? You have to compensate for everything", Cruz said cruelly.
" What? but I'm.", Noa's trying to kink.
" Or .. I'm going to bother you every time, every hour, every second" Cruz threatened. " I am the one with the intention".
Noa shook her head, horrified that she had to come in contact with Cruz every day.
With a slight hesitation Noa asked "What is your total loss?".
Cruz held back his smile, this woman is easy to lie to.
Cruz began counting his fingers dramatically. "cleaning up the SPORTS car you're THROWing up about 80 million, damage to the SPONSOR's SHIRT you're VOMITING about 40 million, he said, then MY LIPS that you kissed eh no but you chewed around.. ".
"Stop... Okay stop .", Noa cut those numbers. " Okay I'm responsible. But I don't have any money right now, so please give it some time" Noa said honestly.
Noa really doesn't have that kind of money. Crazy clothes cost 40 million, money from where try inner Noa. " I really don't have any money right now. Can I be a great-grandchild?", Noa hoped.
Cruz narrowed his eyes dramatically. " Em I'll think about it. But remember Noa, don't try to run away from me. I'm a very impatient person", Cruz explained near Noa's face.
"Yes. I'm not gonna run away. I'm the one in charge" Noa said annoyedly.
" Good then. Save my number and reply as soon as you can. If you don't reply quickly or don't pick up my phone, then I'll double my losses by 2", Cruz threatened ruthlessly.
" Hey... Are you crazy?", Noa was very upset.
" Wouldn't you? well, I'm gonna send the bill to your house and pay it for nothing", Cruz was about to turn around when Noa pulled the edge of his shirt.
" okay.. I wanna. I concur. We made a deal" Noa said.
" okay... I'm gonna write a deal" Cruz said, feeling victorious.
"But don't be careless, have to make it together" Noa said suspiciously.
" Yes I agree. I'm not like someone who undresses in front of other people" Cruz whispered near his face.
Noa covered her face in embarrassment, her face met with red. Cruz smiled at that, very adorable inner Cruz.
"Please don't ever talk about it" Noa told Cruz.
" Okay, I'm not going to talk about it" Cruz smiled.
Noa breathed a sigh of relief. " Can you help bring some of these beer cans" Noa offered Cruz a grand.
Cruz looked at Noa then took 1 can from her, opened the can and gulped it down a bit.
Cruz whispered in Noa's ear as she hugged the cans.
" I love the little blue butterfly around your waist", Cruz put her hand on Noa's waist, then smiled and passed away leaving Noa with her face red.
Noa tries to calm herself down, then walks after Cruz from behind.
" Basic perverted guy", Noa curses slowly.
