Chapter 2: Welcome Back My Lady
A days in the other building...
Weiyeng is a little bit busy and stressed out with her work. But even though she is far from her friends and co-workers, she still have some of her friends who contacted her and asked her how is she doing. Because of her attitude of being noisy sometimes and being funny too, lots of people missed her. But she can't deny that even he has done many things there is one person that stays in her mind and heart always and that is Jay.
A months after...
Weiyeng needs to finish her task in the other building as their boss requested her to go back at the main building soon as possible. Christmas season is coming and and her department is the most busiest among all departments. Thinking that she would be back on the main building, she was more excited to see her friends there. And some of her friends was thinking that she already resign or maybe absent without info (AWOL). She doesn't like talking that much in their GC that's why they are wandering where she is. Only few of her co-workers know where she is now. In other thing she is really excited to see her friends, or is it really her friends? or to the man that give her body a goosebumps?
"Weiyeng you have to go back on the main building tomorrow either you're finished here or not. You come back here when everything there is okay" the boss stated.
"But...
"No buts! and when you're already there I need you to report me what's the update on your department so that we can prepare before Christmas" the boss added.
Ughh! Really! I'm going back in there... I'm going to see that pervert everyday. Dumb! why do I feel this way? And my heart is beating faster when I think of him...What the f*CK! what am I thinking. Focus! Weiyeng control your feelings or you might get hurt". she said that to her self.
"Today! today is the day I must be prepared my self for the next task."
A minutes after she just arrived at the canteen. She go directly to take a break for a while before she became a zombie at work.
As she walked in the hallway some of her friends greeted her.
"Oh girl! you're back! I thought you already resign?".
"Hey! welcome back bitchy! How's your work there? Many of us missed you here."
"Here she comes! The bubbles hahaha".
"Finally you're back!
"Oh my god! since you came bitch haven't you observed the sorroundings? ". her cf Jenny said.
"Yeah I did and I have seen and heard the notice like there's a fiesta celebration in here. You.. what...why don't we just go inside now while it's still early so that we still have time to talk. You know and I know that we both have some bad and good news to tell". she replied.
"Yeah as always.. you're very talkative nothing was changed 😂. And of course that's what other missed you. If you only know how many times your name was called and mentioned."Jenny said.
Weiyeng just smile and teased her friends and co-workers like they're hanging out somewhere. She also missed them all and if course that pervert man. Will she able to face him after not meeting for a long time? Or is the feelings the same as before? Well let's see if it will work.
In the office...
"Wei! the boss wants to talk to you." the assistant said
"Oh! thank you I'll follow you after let me save this first". Damn! why so early am I dead meat this morning? Ugh!...she left her computer murmuring and fixing her self before facing their boss.
"Shit! she cuss not knowing the boss called her is Mr.Dy. One of their boss who is known as the coldest boss among thier bosses. He is tall, handsome, flawless skin, cute, charming as they said. Mr.Dy doesn't have a girlfriend since as some offices said. And maybe that's the reason why he is cold when he talks to a girl. And when he talk to you damn! you will loose your focus from his daze. The he talk is so professional and can't aware to look at his body figure like a model. He is already 31 years old but still not thinking of marrying. Such a poor man. This only proves that isn't about money when looking for real love. As they said that he liked someone before and it's one of their employee. Too bad his parents couldn't accept the girl's simpleness. And she also doesn't own any business like them. He started to flirt some girls but still ended up being a single man. Until his mood changes like an angry lion looking for food. Everytime he visit the building or in the office, the employees will looks like they've been a ghost, scared and act like they do not know each other. Not even a single word will came out in their mouth.
"Good day sir! they said you're..."
Sit. Are you in a relationship? Mr. Dy cut her words and asked directly. While Weiyeng just sitting down and lost in her mind for a while😳... didn't know if she will answer the question or not. Until she came into her senses and said " Uhh...Y--yess sir but it's complicated."
Aren't you married already? he added.
What the f*CK! Weiyeng cuss in her mind asking am I talking to a boss or a man who's trying to court?
"Ahm, no sir its just..."
"Anyways, you know what being together with someone which you do not understand to each other sometimes is just like a business. You have to understand what's the reason why does it happen. Even you did your part but still there is something you messed up in the eyes of others. And all you have to do is to investigate until you will find a conclusion. Just like now we are facing this pandemic and don't know when it will end."I called you because I've seen that your section had the most in demand items in our times today. I just want to reminds you to fucos on what is the item that is the most saleable. I know you just came back here. Just don't let your inventory reach up to zero." he said.
"Yes sir! actually inventory is my first priority right now and I just finished my request" she answered.
Good! if that's so, then you may go back to your work now!
An hour after...
Weiyeng needs to relax for a while after working in the office. She go directly in the warehouse to talk some of her friends and in-charged too. But unfortunately before reaching the place, as she walked in she had seen him looking at her directly with a cute smile. She didn't mind it after all, it's been a weeks since this man flirted her. So she continue walking and give him a bow as a sign of saying hello.
Welcome back my lady!
After hearing that husky voice she froze for a moment and tried to controlled her self like she felt nothing. But how can her heart can't beat faster that makes her face reddened like tomato. All she have to do is to response him like normal friend.
"Yeah! It's nice to see you again!
While passing beside him she seemed his smirked and of course! that smile again, that looks like telling her so many words.
"Dam* self focus it doesn't mean anything stop overthinking" she said to her self.
After an hours of work!
"Finally! it's time to go home".
"Yeah it's a long busy day".
The girls were talking. "Everyone! please come closer where are the others? I have some concern here regarding of what happen earlier" their supervisor asked.
Weiyheng just stood at the back talking to her friend while laughing as they wait others to come. Suddenly a cold hand take her small hand and squeezed it. Without looking who did it she could feel her heart is beating faster again.
Again!!! the presence of this guy is giving her body a goosebump.
"How are you? he asked.
"I'm fine as usual😏" she answered without facing who is speaking.
"Humm cute" he teased.
"I know" she answered like giving a chance to him.
"What's the noise at the back? Their supervisor asked.
But it seems like they don't heared anything so they continue they continue talking.
"me? she asked smiling.
"Is there any other person I am facing now?" he teased.
Crazy! she answered.
"Look! my hands are all sweating." Jay said while showing his hands to her to catch her attention. " Can I see yours? For sure your hand is so soft, you don't do such home choires maybe" he added.
It really caught her attention that reason to hold their hands together. And Jay only stare at her with a puppy eyes like wanting to say a lot and squeeze her hands. No matter how she tried to let his hand go but it makes them together to get close from each other. They are now a half ruler in distance and it catch their supervisors attention, and then called her. "Excuse me ma'am Wei can I have your presence? "Oh Y--yes ma'am sorry". she response while pinching his hand with a smile. But Jay has no plan of letting her hand go. So she hide their hands together in the near module where they are standing. But Jay's friend is not a fool besides he knows what his friend is up to. He only give a stare to his friend and a small smile.
After the short pep- talk all employees goes down and ready to take their bags in each of their locker. But Jay still remained holding her hand not wanting her to walk together in the group of employees. Her strength is not enough to let go of herself so she patiently wait and take a deep breath. "What do you really want? Her mood suddenly change. " I don't think so you forget it already. Welcome back my lady" the man just stared without blinking at her with a hoarse voice. "Wwwhat are you talking about? She ask him pretending and controlling her feelings. One more step and her breathing will explode, it makes her heart beat faster like she's running fast And it makes her face looks like tomato. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to... " Enough I forgive you of what you did before. Cut it off whatever your plan is you better stop it. And I don't think I have to explain it why" she cut him talking. "Wait you talk a lot. Can you just let me admire you. I already apologized and I can't stop what my heart feel" he response admitting. But when she finds way to scape him she quickly walk fast. Jay only left staring her admiring how she walk that fast with a four inches heels. And looking at her body figure it makes him think the things he shouldn't. "Oh my God! what happen to me" he ask himself as he go down on the staires.
In the canteen Jay's friends are waiting for him. But the first one to gou out in the exit door is Weiyeng with a reddened serious face. "Ma'am where is Jay? Jay's friend asked her. But she seems didn't hear anything so she continue to her locker and go out quickly. This day made her so busy and stressful. A minutes after Jay followed to came out in the exit door. "Hey what did you do? She seemed upset! his friend asked him. But he only answered " don't ask again it's non of your business." "Wow and you're upset too? His friend asked again teasing him with meaning tune. "I'm warning you Jay whatever it is you have in your mind don't do it. We're just having fun don't take it seriously you know what will happen if you continue that". his friend never failed of reminding him the right thing besides it's their plan to make her Jay's girlfriend without any feelings. But how can he stop if he already fall at first? It's gonna be a big problem for both of them he already have two daughters and is planning to marry the mother. And on Wei's side he also have a long term boyfriend. But the problem also is that they can't have a baby for some valid reason. His long-term boyfriend keeps supporting her from the start. But sometimes she also feel like she doesn't have freedom. And she don't understand that feeling what kind of freedom she really want. She can't say it in words. She think her gratitude towards him for being with her for a years. As for now she have to control what really she feel for Jay and be aware of it that she is already taken. And will stay away from that temptation and to fucos on her work.
At work place her section is decor and her people are only four with one gay only. She need someone to assist her in the warehouse because there's an item that she can't carry it. She needs a man's help but all of the warehouseman are busy too. And the only person it's not is Jay. So she don't have any other choice but to call him and ask for help. "Excuse me can you please help me to bring this outside. I have no one to be called" she talk first. And the man never failed to help her as he walk faster and take the thing saying "of course you can always ask me anytime. I will always be there for you if you need me" he said with a smile and a serious face. She just take a deep breath and said thank you. She don't want to make her day turns into bad. She don't want to think those "what if's" she had in her mind.
A months past and her relation with Jay is getting closer without noticing each other that they already spend time together helping each other. They eat together at lunch. Both of them buy alternately snacks. Until Jay can't control his feelings anymore.
"Wei, I'm sorry but I love you! I know I shouldn't be in this situation but I can't stop what I feel for you. You makes my day good. Your smile gives me smiles too. I don't know but without seeing you here change my mood I always want to see you and talk to you I know you have him I hope you understand what I mean ." he admitted already. She only close her eyes and control her feelings pretending she also don't feel the same thing. "No Jay you shouldn't do that or say that. You already have kids I don't want to become the problem of your own family. Besides I'm already with someone for years. I don't want to make mistake. let's just be friend like we used to when we are not this close to each other" she stated without any face expression as she stand up and left him in the canteen. She still have 30 minutes time before going back to work but she don't have any other ideas to escape Jay. She don't understand her feelings when the man admit her feelings. She's happy but on the other side she is also sad.
Days, nights and weeks past the man didn't give up and still wait her response that makes her weak and feel pitty or she already falls too.
In the canteen during their lunch since they have the same schedule. They sit together in one table. And as usual the man never fails her to buy some snacks and shared his food until they finish eating. The man keeps talking and talking until she gives him a pick up line "If in English let's go, what about in Tagalog? she asked. Jay only looks at her with a smile and after a minutes the man think of an answer on how to say it "hummn let's go? in Tagalog is ...Tara?" he answered. "Humm can't you think of other term in two words of saying it? she response with a smirked didn't know what will happen after. "oh I know it! Tayo na! he said.
But Jay has a slow mind of thinking that time Wei is waiting for his reaction but he really didn't get it. "You don't want? she asked him. "Wait ..what do you mean by that? the man beside her proudly bow his head near to her and give her a bright smile and smirked. "Okay☺️ thank you I love you!
After hearing those words she smile also and making her self busy with her phone. The man besides her can't stop smiling as he scan also his phone. "What's the date today I will take this note" "What do you think it is? she also answered it with question. As the man scanned her news feed on Facebook he seemed a photos of a baby. And then show it to her and said " What do you think if we have ours? How does he or she looks like? he asked her while staring at her. Of course it would be a copy cat of us. "she said. " I want to have it can you give me? he teased her. She didn't know what to say anymore she feels like there are butterflies in her stomach. So she change the topic and said " You know what I have a twin, it's a boy a d it's sad to say he is already in heaven now" she said. But the man only said "Wow so there's a change we can have twin..that's nice I'm so excited" he answered. She didn't know how to response it again so she just make herself busy looking on her news feed too and wait until its time to go back at work.
But the question is how is she or how are they both going to handle it together while all of their friends in their department knows already about each of their relation status on both of their side. They keep it a secret but his friends already know it. And their actions too but still they didn't say anything. When there are times it's only the two of them in the warehouse jay wanted to kiss her but she caught it quickly. She find ways to escape it but Jay's is more fast. She got caught and Jay only manage to hug her at the back whispering I love you in her ear. She felt something hot inside her body. She's lost for a while and regain her memory when she saw one of her people staring in front of them in shock. So she quickly remove Jay's hands that wrapped her body and walkout quickly. All she could her is Jay's voice that says "What's wrong! it's okay there's a lot of opportunity for it baby".
A weeks after and Wei's birthday is coming she was planning to treat her friends but she don't have enough money for eat so her friends offer to chip-in together. She don't know what has Jay thinking about what's best gift for her. She only see them talking one of her friend who knows how to bake a cake and talking they will bake to sell it
On her birthday they eat together and her order already arrived. She didn't have much time to talk but to her surprise as she look at the table she seemed a box. And he whispered her "happy birthday baby I love you, should I sing ? he teased her. She didn't expect him to out effort on their relation. She is just happy but when she remembered she is with someone she can't aware to feel disappointed to herself. She ask herself. Am I really this bad? I'm just making myself happy and following my heart. As she remained silent Jay told her to eat after the time finish.They didn't sit together in one table it's so busy in the canteen on that day. So they only keep exchanging looks at each other. She even heared lots of employees whispering "so it's true? " what true are you talking about? the other employee asked. "The gossip! No wonder they are very sweet! Omg they are match!
A lot of words they heared but they just look at each other and hold their hands together under the table. But what about those friends of them who knows about their both side and status. How long would they hide the truth? When you are really hit the arrow of love there's no scape no matter what the consequences are.
