TEN: THE OLD FRIEND
TEN: THE OLD FRIEND
FREDERIK'S POV
I was about to go back to our room when I noticed a shadow of a woman coming down the stairs, hmm. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
I don't know what happened but I just simply grabbed her from behind.
And before she could shout for help, I slowly turned her around to face me. She's stunned a little when she recognizes me.
My sister-in-law is about to open her mouth to say something when I suddenly kissed her to make her shut up.
LEYSA'S POV
"Hmm," only a soft moan came out of my mouth when Fred suddenly grabbed and kissed me.
I could not feel any resistance within myself so I kissed him back willingly with the same intensity and longing.
He slowly lifted me up so I hugged his neck for support without breaking our kiss.
He started walking his way in–
Ow ... on the stairs?
He dropped me slowly to the first step of the stairs.
He broke the kiss and he just stares at me.
Our position?
I was sitting on the stairs while he was standing in front of me and I was not losing sight of him, so was he. No one wants to talk first, but I know, I sensed it - he wants to say something.
The silence between us is deafening and I am also getting cold because I am not wearing a robe, plus I am not wearing a bra so I know that my erected nipples are visible to him.
So I stood up from my sitting position, and now we are leveled.
"Do you need something brother-in-law? Because if none, I need to go to the kitchen," I opened up, like saying it as if there was absolutely nothing happened between us a while ago.
Like it's just a casual talk with him –like we just bumped and met here on the stairs.
I waited a few more seconds for his answer but it looks like he really has no plans to speak, he just intensely staring at me so I just shrugged and about to cross my way to him when he grabbed my arm that made me stop from making any movements.
"Please ... I just want to say that, let's forget what happened last night between us. It shouldn't have happened. It was wrong, so wrong ... really wrong cause it's a sin to my wife. I just cheated to her by fucking with you, her beloved sister. But I will not say sorry to you either, I know you enjoyed it like how I love it. So let's call it quits between us. "
I looked at him after what he confessed, and he also looked at me –waiting for my answer.
So I fixed a smile ... a sweet smile and simply said "okay".
That made him releases me from his hold. So I continued to walk myself into the kitchen, leaving him there, where he was standing.
I never looked at him again, and I can't stop myself in smirking, maybe he was thinking that I should say,
"No! Is that so? Just forget it? After you stole something important to me? I will not allow it." I just laughed like as if I would say that ... never!
I already promised it to myself --I will never beg for someone's attention and love and so whatever. Cause if they want me, they are the ones who will beg for it, not me. No matter what happens, I will never beg him, to Fred, and to anyone.
"But what's with the kiss you just shared awhile ago?" my inner self asked once again. Shit! By the way, that's all he wanted to say but why he needs to kiss me first, tss. Forget what happened? Oh well, to me? It's no problem. But to him? I don't think he can forget me, though.
FREDERIK'S POV
"F * ck! What I just said to her? Forget what happened between us? You idiot Fred, after you tasted your sister-in-law's sweet red lips, that's what you gotta said? Forget everything ... you piece of a shit!" I whispered to myself. Yeah! I am arguing with my own stupidity.
I closed my eyes and tweak myself.
"Hey big boss! Got any problem?" a voice called me that made me open my eyes and looked at the open door of my office.
Oh! I stood up from sitting in my swivel chair when I recognized who it was.
He approached my seat, "Hey best friend! How are you? I miss you! How is married life? You look troubled dude. I told you before to don't get married yet," Edward greeted and said to me, one of my best friends for life, and I even saw him smirked teasingly.
This fool laughs at me! So I threw him a crumbled paper and I smiled at him, he came back right on time when I needed him the most. He is the only one I can tell about my grievances in life, because some of our friends are also busy. And he is a good adviser, no doubt about it.
We last saw each other was before my wedding day. He wasn’t able to attend my wedding that time, he should be my best man but he flew back to Spain where he is really based now for a project. He is an architect, and he also does not want to be a best man for a wedding without love involved. Psh, as if.
“Damn you!" I blurted out at him because of what he just said that I shouldn’t have married Diana before and I also can’t help but laughed as well.
Because that is true, he told me several times before my wedding not to do such hastily decision because there was still a better solution to my problem at that time and maybe someone will come that is much better for me and the hottest bachelor in town, Frederik Wilford's wedding would be more pompous.
And I regretted the day that I did not listen to him, but it’s already here. I just can't leave Diana for some other girl. Especially that WILCO –my grandpa's beloved company would be given to me in no time. But f * ck it! Leysa is not just some other girl –she’s different, more way different from all!
I sat down again in my swivel chair and violently washed my hand over my face.
Edward also sat in the chair in front of my desk.
I looked at him, the fool smiled as he was analyzing my actions. He is always like that –a psycho analyst, hays.
"Is it a woman?" he suddenly asked, so I looked at him seriously.
"I will tell it to you after I figured all the things out," I just answered.
LEYSA'S POV
"So how was it, sis?"
We are here in the kitchen, and I am asking my older sister, how was my cooking skills.
"Hmm. It's so ..." my sister said hanging, tss so artsy –she’s just going to say if it's delicious or not, why so many segways?
But I patiently waited for her comment, she is still chewing the chicken curry I cooked, my brother- in-law’s favorite dish.
She smiled…
"You're good at cooking, sis! It's delicious, you even cook better than me. I'm sure babe will enjoy eating this dish you cooked, it’s his favorite though," she commented with a sweet fake smile.
"Ow? My older brother's favorite is chicken curry? I didn't know. But now, I know. I hope he’ll love it," I replied back to her, of course I pretended not to know, but I already knew everything about him. I studied that, oh well I need to, I have to.
My sister and I have already prepared and served the food in the dining area because Frederik is on his way home, along with one of his best friends.
I am busy putting some bowls of my chicken curry on the table when someone enters the area.
And he is so damn hot wearing his suit, that’s why I didn't notice that my grip on the bowl was tilted a bit so the soup broth was thrown on my finger and it's a little bit hot so I was shaken.
I am about to suck it, when someone grabs my finger and sucks it for me.
"Hmm. It tastes so good," he commented.
We were just staring at each other when I saw in my peripheral vision that Diana was approaching from behind, so I immediately removed my finger from Fred's mouth.
"A-ah! Let's eat!" I stutter, shit ... I suddenly felt nervous because my sister almost caught us in a not so good position. And I don't want to ruin the lining up of my plans just because of Fred's simple act of kindness to me.
Oh well, I just sat in the seat in front where Fred was sitting and Diana did the same, she also sat in the seat next to her husband.
"So ... where is Edward, babe?" Diana suddenly asked.
"He's still in the outside. He just needs to take a phone call," my older brother replied casually.
I looked at his place and he is also looking at me. Just shit! What is his problem, why does he look like –as if he wants to swallow me?
"So, hi guys!"
Fortunately, someone entered the dining area that destructed me and Frederik’s eye contact with each other.
And I also looked at the new persona who just came inside.
Ow! He is familiar!
He sat in the vacant seat next to me, and he glanced at me, and smiled.
I don't think he remembers me, or knows me.
So I just chose to return my attention to the food I put on my plate, but I noticed him again looking at me that’s why I looked back again at him and I just gave him a sweet smile.
"Oh wait? Mi amore!" he blurted out and hugged me, so tight!
