S.H.E (Women I've Purchased)
#37
Lucy and Andre arrive at Lucy's apartment. Andre takes Lucy home and stops by Lucy's apartment first. Throughout the trip Lucy a little quiet and make Andre curious.
"What's wrong? It seems like something is troubling your mind." asked Andre curiously.
"Ah, I'm just a little tired. Maybe because the first day of work." said Lucy gave an excuse.
"No, that's not what happened. There must be a problem that disturbs your mind." said Andre sure.
Lucy avoided taking a deep breath and sat down next to Andre while leaning her body on the sofa.
"There was someone telling us earlier that an employee saw you eating with a woman" Lucy said.
"Well, we ate together, did you suspect that I was taking another woman to lunch after I ate with you?" andre looked at Lucy.
"Not that, I'm really scared that any of the company's employees know that she's me" Lucy said.
"What's so hard being my lover and letting everyone in the office know about it? Can't I have a company boyfriend with me?" asked Andre in a annoyed tone.
"It's not like that, I just feel uncomfortable if they know about our relationship. I really want to work with the results of my abilities, that's all." Lucy explained.
Andre took a deep breath and got up from his seat. He took his suit and the cell phone on the table.
"Where are you going? I'll make us dinner." said Lucy.
"I'll go home, you eat alone after that go off to rest" Andre said.
"Why don't you have dinner with me? I'll cook quickly." said Lucy.
Andre does not answer Lucy's question, leaving Lucy without a word. It was obvious on his face that Andre was currently extremely annoyed.
"You mad?" lucy asked after Andre who was already outside the door.
Andre approached Lucy who was standing in front of the door and held both of her hands.
"Listen, I'm gonna cut down on the time we meet. Even I'll forget about you in the office, if it makes you more comfortable" Andre said, kissing Lucy's hand.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean it that way." said Lucy cut off.
"I see, come in outside cold. Don't forget to eat and rest." said Andre turned around and left Lucy.
Lucy was speechless with what just happened, Andre completely left without leaving his usual warm smile.
"Well, what have I done, why did I disappoint him. It became so difficult after we were together, what should I do? I did this also for her own good, so as not to be a lip in the office." Lucy muttered as she squeezed her hair.
Lucy goes into the kitchen and makes a cereal and warm milk. His hunger had now vanished from the trouble that had just approached him. After eating her cereal, Lucy cleans the table and the bowl. After that he cleaned himself up and prepared to go to sleep.
On the other hand Andre was driving his car a little fast. Sure enough, his heart could not accept what Lucy did to him. Andre sidestepped his car and stopped it abruptly.
Andre tried to calm himself down and continued on his way home. As much as possible he controls his emotions in order to get home safely.
It was almost an hour from the last time Lucy saw Andre's return from her home. But there has been no incoming message or phone on the phone that he is currently faced with hope. It was not as usual that Andre did not contact him when he arrived at his apartment. Lucy also took the initiative to contact Andre first. He pressed Andre's contact number and tried to call him.
Tuuttt..... Tuuttt.... Tuuttts....
There was no reply from Andre, Lucy tried to send him a message. Hope Andre will repay him and make sure he arrives home safely.
"Hy, you're home yet? I tried to contact you but couldn't." Lucy wrote briefly.
Andre reads the message from Lucy, but he does not immediately reply. Andre continued to stare at the laptop screen and work on his remaining work. Suddenly her phone rings again, and it's Lucy's second message.
"Don't forget to eat and hurry to rest, I'll sleep if you don't return this message" Lucy wrote.
Andre just read the message again and kept it quiet. Still with the same expression but a little disturbing his mind he also reread the message sent Lucy.
"Ahh you really are like a child now, should you be angry just about this kind of thing? Come on, you're not a teenager new to love." murmured Andre tried to reconcile his heart.
Andre presses Lucy's contact and calls her. No need to wait long Lucy immediately picked up the phone with a happy feeling.
"Have you arrived?" ask Lucy directly.
"Yes, I was just ready to take a shower and the stone read your message" Andre told a lie.
"Owh, have you eaten yet?" ask Lucy again.
"Yes I finished it, you alone?" ask Andre back.
"I've eaten. Are you still angry?" ask Lucy a little scared.
"No, you need to get some rest. Tomorrow will work, won't it?" said Andre.
"Yes, okay. Then I hang up the phone." said Lucy.
"Yes." replied Andre briefly.
Lucy hung up the phone feeling sad, not usually Andre just answered that short. Usually he will tempt all-out Lucy to buy time to be able to linger talking to him.
Lucy laid her body on the bed and looked at the screen of her phone. He looked around at the photos of the two of them a while ago and suddenly Lucy longed for their togetherness as she used to.
"I'll apologize to him tomorrow, and will do whatever he says." Lucy murmured.
Lucy looked around her room and looked back at the ceiling. Sure enough, if it wasn't for Andre's kindness it wouldn't be possible for him to be able to enjoy all of this. And maybe he forbid Andre who wants to be recognized as his lover to the people. However Andre has done his best for him so far, and he must have thought carefully if everyone in the office knew of their previous relationship.
