S.H.E (Women I've Purchased)

"Lucy why do you have to think about such a thing? Let them say such stupid things, now you just go through it all and enjoy it. At the same time you have to prove to them that you deserve to be next to Andre" Carlo assures.
"But I really don't have the ability to do it all" said Lucy bowed listlessly.
"I don't know why Andre can choose you as his partner for now, there must be something special that he sees in you and you have to be confident about that. Lucy, if it's true that Andre doesn't have any feelings for you, it might be a long time ago that he got rid of you." explains Carlo again.
Lucy was silent at the words of her best friend, her mind was a little reduced to hear it all. Yes what Carlo said is true, at least Andre is still staying and being by his side is much better. Now it's just how to maintain his relationship and make himself worthy to be on Andre's side.
"Thank you Carlo, you're really my best friend. Everything you said was true as well, I'm so grateful that you're there to support me in a situation like this" Lucy said sincerely.
"You have to believe in yourself Lucy, if it's true that woman's trying to attract Andre, go ahead. But you have to remember one thing, Andre never glanced at him all this time and that proves Andre doesn't have any feelings for him" Carlo said with a smile.
Lucy nodded in agreement with Carlo's words, hugging her best friend as a sign of gratitude for helping her through this predicament. They spend the night sharing stories and chatting together because they have not spent time together.

Andre called Lucy's phone earlier but there was no answer from her. Unlike usual Lucy did not pick up the phone from him, and usually Lucy had contacted him early in the morning to ask Andre had breakfast or not. Moreover last night Lucy was more moody than usual it made Andre become more anxious. Andre picks up his car keys and rushes to visit Lucy's apartment.
Tock.... Tock.... Tock....
"Lucy's.... Lucy, it's me." cried Andre as he arrived in front of Lucy's apartment.
But there was no answer from the inside, Andre tried many times with a stronger knock. He was really worried because something like this was not as usual.
Andre also took the initiative to call apartment security because now he was panicking. It did not take long, security and the apartment locksmith arrived after hearing a complaint from Andre, they were getting ready to open the door of Lucy's apartment by force. But suddenly the apartment door opened from the inside and Napak a woman behind the door.
"What's the morning when you gather at my door?" ask Lucy who's wearing her pajamas.
"Sorry lady, this man said he tried to call you and call you many times but there was no answer from you. It's good that you're okay" said the security and they left Lucy and Andre standing there.
Andre looked at Lucy with a slightly annoyed look and it made Lucy sober. He straightened his hair and told Andre to come in. Andre walks into Lucy's apartment without a word coming out of his mouth, while Lucy runs into the kitchen to make Andre coffee. Lucy checked her phone and it turned out to be a lot of missed calls and messages from Andre.
"I don't know if you've called me this much. And also I forgot that my phone is silent, sorry" said Lucy timidly.
Andre just remained silent as he looked at Lucy with a piercing look. He really did not believe he would be toyed with this little woman.
"As I really don't know, Carlo stayed here last night and we stayed up all night. If you don't believe she's still in the room" Lucy said.
"Looks like you to play games with me, don't you know how worried I am this morning? I went to you in my pajamas like this." said Andre.
Lucy looked at Andre's body which was right using only pajamas. He tried to hold back the laughter from seeing Andre like that. Andre was really far from the impression of the CEO he had been used to meeting all this time.
"You... What do you want?" ask Lucy nervously.
"I think I saw you smile, do you like my condition like this? Going out of the house in pajamas?" asked Andre teasingly.
"Whoever smiles, besides you are a strange human being. How can you go visit a girl's apartment in pajamas" Lucy said, trying to shift the blame.
Andre's chest that field scattered in the gap of his pajamas due to Andre who lowered his head, the sight made Lucy's heart beat fast. How not, just looking at his lover's chest was already very masculine what else he could see Andre's body. Lucy shook her head vigorously to shake off her dirty thoughts.
"Honestly, I really wanted to touch her body. Tuhaaann I am just an ordinary woman, how could I not be tempted to look at this man's body. I'm sure she has the perfect body." Inner Lucy
Andre drew closer to Lucy and was now so close that Lucy felt Andre's breath.
"Are you satisfied with looking at the whole thing? Need me to take off my shirt so you'll feel more satisfied?" andre whispered in Lucy's ear.
Hearing that Lucy tried to push Andre but he was no match for the man, now his hand was really on the chest of Andre's field.
"Lucy you're awake? Why didn't you wake me?" said Carlo who had just woken up and was not fully aware.
Carlo's eyes spontaneously widened to see the scene before him. He immediately turned to face Lucy's room, as if he had come out in the wrong state.
"Sorry I'm bothering you. You can go on, I'll go back to the room, let's just say I'm not there." said Carlo embarrassed.
"That's it, because your friend has woken up I'm going home" Andre said.
"You haven't eaten anything yet, what if I make you breakfast? At least we can eat with my best friend, right?" ask Lucy.
"Alright, let's eat breakfast together." said Andre.
Carlo was silent to Andre's words, he did not expect that his best friend's girlfriend still had a conscience and wanted to hang out with him. Carlo approaches the dining table and sits down to join Lucy and Andre. Lucy toasted the bread and put the jam, after which she gave it to Andre.
"I'm sorry for making such a fuss this morning" Andre said, trying to speak to Carlo.
"Owh's okay sir, I should be the one apologizing. If I hadn't invited Lucy to stay up maybe we wouldn't have had this kind of bad luck, and it's only natural that you would have worried about her and come here" Carlo said.
"Well, it seems like she needs time to be with her best friend, thanks for being her best friend. And of course you also have to get used to calling me Andre." said Andre sincerely.
Carlo fell silent at the words Andre did not normally hear from the big boss's mouth. Andre is very much different from the image of a big boss who is arrogant, he is very easy to get along with them underclassmen. No wonder Lucy fell in love and felt unworthy to be by Andre's side. Andre is truly the man that every woman on this earth desires.
