Wife Pretend

Lunches

"You get ready, come with me to the office!" Said Dave suddenly as he was neatly dressed.

"What?"

"What is what?"

"You told me to come to the office!" Erika tried to repeat the sentence that was thrown from Dave's lips.

"You heard it! Just follow it!" Dave walked up to the mirror and confirmed the tie.

Erika glanced at him for a moment, wanting to lodge a protest, but her tongue was as though it was a hoax. While Dave, from behind the reflection of the mirror, his eyes glanced at Erika who was suddenly speechless with a face that turned slightly moody. What the hell is he thinking? Does he want to go to the office? Butwhy? So thought Dave.

"Hey..Why are you suddenly so quiet?" Dave asked finally after turning his body towards Erika now, his tie still looked untidy. "Can I help me put this tie on again!" Continue before getting any answers from the girl who is now walking towards him.

Erika has been seen putting on Dave's tie very painstakingly. At least he had learned it before while dating Ken. "You should make this part tighter, so that your tie looks neater!" Erika cried while her hands were busy justifying the tie that Dave was wearing. "Oh..Yeah, why do you want me to go to the office? To be honest I'm lazy to go outside the house." Erika seemed to be done with her work now.

Suddenly Dave's hand touched Erika's hand, making Erika slightly stunned. Dave also seemed surprised, why suddenly he wanted to hold the girl's hand. And actually in his heart was also the desire to kiss the girl who was in front of him right now. But as much as possible he should be able to restrain himself, even though now the girl was now his legal wife. But still, he still does not want to involve physical relationships, let alone involve feelings.

Erika seemed to wait, if Dave wanted to kiss her, he didn't mind. But baby, it's just his wish. Suddenly Dave let go of his hand and immediately went towards the door to exit the room.

"All right! Stay home if you don't want to go anywhere" Dave said shortly before exiting his bedroom door.

Erika was still standing glued to where she was standing, it all felt so awkward for her, how could she have thought of expecting a kiss from Dave. Obviously that man couldn't have done it.

"Huahahhhh...!" He slammed his own body into the bed. Closing his eyes for a moment to expel his own sadness.

Why should I be involved with a drama like this, this is not what I really want? Can't I really be a real wife? Am I not worthy of love? Why is everything like this?

******

Mark's already standing in Dave's doorway right now. Erika called him and asked him to come. If Erika did not whine in a voice that sounded sad, she would definitely not want to come. Unfortunately Erika did and it made her feel unbearable.

"Hey, you've come!" Erika said when she opened the main door of the big house. He deliberately stopped Aunt Ema's steps to open the door, so that she herself would open the door for Mark.

"Yes." Yeah." Answer Mark flatly without expression.

"All right, let's go in! I want to talk." Erika said again while opening the door even wider.

Mark seemed a little hesitant. "Erika! Do you think this is appropriate? Sorry didn't mean to offend you, but we both know, you're my boss's wife now and...."

"It's not like that, don't get me wrong, of course I still want to be friends with you, but I also have to be able to maintain my attitude and behavior, I just want to keep the feelings of Mr. Dave." Mark looked earnest as he said it.

Suddenly Erika smiled blandly, feeling silly hearing the words Mark said. "Mark, you obviously know my marriage to Dave is fake, he doesn't even care about how I feel, so why are you so worried about his feelings. He definitely has no objection to our friendship. So calm down and worry about anything. I really need a conversation partner right now, Mark that's it." Clearly Erika while looking into Mark's eyes with a pleading gaze.

You also don't know what I feel for Erika, I'm just not sure I can hold myself back if I stay close to you. Please understand. How can I stop my own feelings from being interested in you!

"Well, how about we just talk outside for lunch!" Mark finally answered. However, he did not want to lose the opportunity to get close to the girl. He knows it's too risky. But it seems Erika is paving the way for him.

"Is that a sign that you're ready for Mark?" Erika's face immediately sparkled.

Mark just nodded lightly and smiled in response. He was very happy to see Erika's face that looked happy and adorable.

"Yey...All right, Mark, wait a minute, yeah, I'll change clothes first, after that we go out!" Erika said excitedly.

"Well, I'll wait for you in the car." Mark cried as he passed from before Erika.

*****

Erika and Mark have been seen in a simple restaurant that is not too luxurious, a restaurant with a Korean-style food menu that is very affordable.

"Well, this place is fun too, you're good at picking places too!" Erika said with a carefree tone.

Quietly Mark's eyes kept watching towards Erika. The girl had really made him lose his mind. Actually, Dave had also secretly told himself to approach Erika. So when Erika called him earlier, Dave also found out and instead courted him to approach the girl. At first Mark was confused by his boss's orders. But in the end he complied. He was also actually happy if he had to stay near Erika.

Mark didn't want to think of a reason why Dave had him approach his pretended wife instead. He only thought about how he could be around the girl.

"What does it mean you feel good?" Said Mark who seemed happy to see Erika eating the food in front of her greedily.

"Yes..It's so good, Mark, I don't look like a young lady right now if I see me eating like this!" Erika said with a mouth full of food. He looked funny and made Mark even more anxious.

"You don't look like a young lady like that, but you look like...." Mark's sentence hangs.

"What-like?" Erika seemed to wait for the continued sentence from Mark.

Like the girl I like. I like you Erika. Mark said in silence and his gaze seemed meaningful.

SERIATE....
