The next morning, I got up early and got freshen up. Since I had already decided to join Golden Company from today, I better go on time.
I make some light breakfast for five people to eat. Yes Ethan and Jason were joining us today at breakfast. I was quick enough to make them just on time. It wasn’t even seen when everything was ready. I made some toast and scrambled eggs. It isn’t that much work, right?
I went up to Camila and God, she is still sleeping. Really she has become really lazy after I came here. Because she barely got up early in the morning now a days.
“Cami.. Wake up. Look the sun is up already. ” I shook her body but she turned another side and went back to her sleep.
“Wake up you lazy butt ” I pulled her sheet down.
“Let me sleep for a while, please. ” she pulled it up and cover herself.
I went up to the windows and open up the curtains and the window. But she covered her face too.
I shook my head in defeat. I can’t do anything now. She really isn’t going to wake up. I better not waste my time.
“I’m going to Mr Gold. I need to talk to him . You get up now, Ethan must be coming. ” I said as I crossing my arms around my chest.
“What? Ethan? “she jolted awake from her bed and sat down on the bed.
“Wow, I would’ve taken his name earlier if I knew you’ll have this reaction on his name. ”
“They must be coming, I better not myself fresh. ” She scratched the back of her head.
“They? Ohh yeah Jason is also coming. ”
“You going to that arrogant brat ?” She asked me.
“Yeah, I need him to know my decision and I’ll ask him over for breakfast. ”
“Please don’t. ”
“What? ”
“I mean, you know Jason, Ethan . They don’t like him and it’s better for him to stay away as more as possible. So I was wondering if you should have him his dinner as usual. ”
“Jason and Mr Gold…. They didn’t seem to like each other. OK then, I’ll pack his breakfast first.
“Go now and remember to come back to join us. We will have our breakfast together. ” Cami said.
I nodded and Came out of bedroom. I went on the kitchen and packed the breakfast for Mr Gold in a box. Then I took it on hand and moved to his appartment. Well it is just in front of us but I felt like I was going to a totally new place. I have never been inside even though I used to place the food and ring the doorbell.
I take a long breath and rang the doorbell with the packed food in hand. But I didn’t get any response from another side. I pressed the Bella again. After a while there were some movements inside and from the sound I know it was footsteps of someone coming to the door.
When the door opened, there was Mr gold in just a bathrobe. Shit. I quickly covered my eyes with one hand.
“Don’t you like it? ” he asked in a hoarse voice and damn, I felt my body being warm at his words.
“Put on your clothes. I need to talk to you. ” I said to him . He lean down to my ear, I can feel his breathe around my left cheek having me warm sensation and tickles “We can talk like this too, if you want? ” he said in his husky tone.
“No, please first put some clothes on. I have bought your breakfast too. ” I extend my hand to the front just to get bumped into his strong and tight body. I can feel current flowing down to my body as I touch his chest. And i felt a slightest vibration in his body too. I quickly pulled my hand back.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to.” I don’t know what to do so i turned around to avoid seeing him.
“Come in and sit. I’ll go change my clothes. ” he said as I heard his foot steps fading away. I went in still my hand on my eyes. I was barely seeing the floor. I went up to the sofa and sat there. I keep the food on the tea table and sat on the chair.
After a while there were foot steps coming back to the living room. I looked up and now Mr Gold was in tuxedo and pants.
He came to the sofa and sat down next to me. Then he reached his hands to the box of food.
“Have you eaten? ” he asked opening it.
“No” I replied not looking at him.
“It smells nice. ” he inhale the smell of the food.
“Go and get two plates from the kitchen. ” he ordered.
“No no. That’s fine. I’ll eat back at home. You have it.” I kindly refused his offer.
“Why? Why can’t you eat with me? ” He asked as if he was a child.
“No, it’s not like that. I mean they are waiting for me. ”
“They? Who are there waiting for you ?” he asked in a bossy tone.
“Camila, Ethan.. ”
“And Jason? ” he asked .
I nodded at him. I can see his face becoming a bit colourless. But he quickly regained his composure back.
“If there are so many loving people waiting for you back at home, why did you came here. Why don’t you ran back after putting the food in the door? You love to do that, don’t you? ” he make my face up and get his face in front of mine.
“Ohh, that I need to talk to you.” I said hesitantly.
“About what? ” he got up from his seat and went in to the kitchen. I can see him from here. He is putting the plate on the plates.
He came back with two plates on hand and handed one to me. I took it from him and smiled akwardly. I can’t even say no.
“If you don’t wanted to eat with me in the first place why were there so much for me alone. I bet you put it for two people. ” he said smirking.
“No, it’s not like that. You ate a lot at the night before. So I thought I should increase your breakfast too. ”
“What do you want to talk about. ?”
“The offer you gave me. ”
“The offer? What about that? ”
“I want to work with you. ”
“You have no choice ”
“No but I have three conditions”
“Conditions? why do I need to listen?”
“You will. ”
“Go ahead. ”
“After working one month for you in the office and as cook. I no longer have to work as cook anymore. ”
“Another? ”
“If I want to continue or resign the work, it’ll be totally my choice. You won’t have anything to do with it. ”
“Another? ”
“You don’t know me and I don’t know you at working hours and you don’t live next to my house. ” I said all the conditions to him. I was so nervous, what if he didn’t want to agree with any of these conditions. I don’t want to be a slave under him.
“It’s getting cold. Eat fast. ” he said pointing at my plate.
“So do you agree? ”
“You can’t leave immediately… If you want to resign, you have to said it before at least a month.” he said.
One month? For what? Will I ever leave such a high paying job!
I nodded at him. “But I want a written agreement. ”
He nodded at me.
I smiled and eat my breakfast. He also finished his. I wanted to take the plates to the sink but he didn’t let me.
He even asked me to join office from today. I don’t really have choice, he’s not saying but ordering.
I came back to my appartment and saw they were seated there waiting for me. They haven’t even started their breakfast. I went to the dining table and sat beside Jason.
“I have already eaten. You guys please eat. “I said .
“Don’t o told you to not to eat there. We were waiting for you” Camila said furiously “Jason even denied to start without you. ”
I looked at Jason and felt guilty inside. ” I’m sorry Jason. ”
“Ohh, that’s fine. ” He said in a small tone. He seemed a bit upset or something.
“Are you OK? You didn’t even said that ‘I’m Leyson ‘ dialogue ” I tried to ease up the enviroment .
He smiled and nodded.
“What had really happened? Is anything wrong? ” I asked.
“Jason is going out for a while. ” Cami finally spoke.
“Going but where ?” I asked in confusion.
