Chapter 5.1

“Grant!” I was surprised that he splashed water on my bed sheet.

"Look at my bed! It’s wet!” I said. I was crying because it had just changed.

"Wet?" I glared at Grant.

"Yes, Grant! It's wet! Look!” Instead of looking at my bed, he lowered his gaze to my private area. I frowned and glared at him. This maniac—he’s starting again.

“Grant. Don't start ruining my day." He just laughed at me and laid on my bed. I just put the cellphone on the table and took a blanket, pillow and extra foam mattress from the drawer. I laid the foam mattress on the floor and covered it with a bed sheet.

I took Grant's food and rang the bell connected to the kitchen so that the maid could get it.

"You're going to sleep on the floor," I told Grant. He opened his eyes and looked at me in shock.

"You allow me to sleep here?" he asked in disbelief.

"Why? Is it not possible?” I asked him in surprise.

"I mean, you have a wound on your shoulder, so I have to take care of you." I saw him smile.

 "Thank you, Cap," he said. I just noticed that Grant only smiled once.

 "Anyway, just shut up." I told him and rolled my eyes. I looked at the clock and it was still five in the afternoon. Grant was at home all day. He was asleep all day.

"Do you like action movies?" I asked while looking at the CD tape.

"Is there a p0rn?" I immediately looked at him. Why is this man so perv?

“Kidding, cap. Just anything you like.” He said. Okay. I chose Moana and that's what we were going to watch. "Seriously?" I heard Grant complain.

"You say anything I like..." I frowned at him and sat down on the bed.

"You're on the floor, I'm in bed." I pushed him a little but he didn't move.

"Later before I fall asleep," he said. I just sighed and let him stay in my bed beside me. The show is about to begin. We were both silent when the maid peeked into my room.

"Ma'am, Sir Rett is looking for you downstairs." My eyes widened in shock and immediately stood up. Rett is here? Without a second thought, I stood up and ran outside.

"Nana, where is he?"

"In the living room, ma'am." I excitedly went to the living room and found Rett sitting there on the couch, carrying a Tupperware.

"Rett!" He turned to me.

"What are you doing here?" Instead of answering, he looked at me from head to toe. Why? I look kind and decent..

"Did you eat already?" I was a little surprised by what he said. Is he concerned about me?

"Anyway, mommy sent you a dish." I looked down at what he was holding and came to him with a big smile and took the tupperware.

"Please tell Aunt Maricel, thank you very much." I smiled widely and saw that he avoided looking at me.

"You came from work?" I asked when I saw that he was still wearing a formal suit.

“Kind of,” he replied shortly. He looked tired. I want to take care of him, but I won’t try my luck. I’ll piss him off if I dare to do that. He hates me.

"Can you make me a coffee?" I was a little surprised by what he said but immediately nodded and led him to sit on the couch again.

"Wait me here. I'll make you a coffee." I quickly went to the kitchen to make Rett's coffee. Rett and I have known each other for a long time, and even though he doesn't like me, he likes my coffee.

"Is that Rett's?" the maid asked. I nodded and smiled.

“Oh! You’re already a wife material, Kapilan.." I laughed at the maid’s statement towards me and returned to Rett after tasting his coffee.

"Are you alone here?" Rett asked. “No. I'm with someone-” my eyes immediately widened at what I said. Crazy! What? You're going to tell Rett you're with Grant and he's in your room?

“Who?” he frowned when he asked that..

"With my nanny.. hehe." I looked away and sat in front of him.

"Why are you there?" he asked me confusedly when he noticed I was sitting on the second couch.

Huh? Why? Where should I sit?

"Sit beside me. I want to rest.” Huh? What did he say? Although confused, I still stood up and went next to him. He extended my hand to sit next to him. After sitting down, he immediately lay down on my lap and closed his eyes, which surprised me.

"Don't move. I just wanted to sleep.” He said and put his hand over his eyes. I was left speechless. Rett. Pfft. I looked at Rett's face with closed eyes. He's really handsome, so it's no wonder that many girls like him.

"Kapilan," he whispered, and I was waiting for him to say more. "What can you say about Lucy?" I was stunned when he mentioned Lucy. The picture of his girlfriend entered my mind.

I can't say enough about Lucy's beauty. She's really pretty but I was confused as hell when she said she'd help me with Rett. Rett is her boyfriend. Why would she help me?

"She's nice and kind," I said briefly. He took my hand and looked at me as I looked at him. "You think so?" he asked. I nodded.

"I'm planning to ask her to marry me."

I didn't expect that. It's like a bomb that suddenly exploded. I have no words to say to him. I was quiet. The love of my life just declared that he wants to marry his girlfriend. How do I react to that? Be happy? But I'm not happy.

The truth is that I want to cry but I'm holding it back because Rett is here. I smiled crudely and looked away. "Even if you are fat, I still treasure you cause you're a friend, a sister to me Kapilan." I know.

But I still love you Rett.

"So I want to settle this with you. I want you to get over me. I want us to remain friends. I'm sorry…”

“It's fine Rett. We are not girlfriend-boyfriend. I'm the only one who likes you. We didn't even date once." Rett let out a deep breath and looked at me.

“Fine. If we go out, can you promise to forget how you feel about me?" I suddenly looked at him. I was suddenly happy with what he said.

"For 1 week?" I said excitedly. He looked into my eyes and saw his soft smile. "Okay. For 1 week." YES!! I had a big smile but Rett and I both stopped and looked upstairs when suddenly there was a bang in my room.
