Andrew

Andrew encountered Adam on his way to office and grab him.

"Whoa! Bro, what is up?" Adam greeted.

"Not so right bro"

"Well you know, the feeling is mutual especially when you grab me there" Adam retorted looking on Andrew's hands which is still on his shoulder.

When Andrew noticed where Adam is looking he immediately let go of his hand. Adam then shake his body as if a million of dust lands on it. An awkward silence fill for a moment.

"Ahem" Andrew pretended to cough to break the awkward moment and go on talking, "So bro I have something to tell and ask…" Adam puts his hand in front of Andrew's face---a blocking gesture. It made Andrew to stop talking.

"Bro tone down your voice" Adam whispery said. He puts down his hand and check side by side whether there are people near to them. Well, there are people but they just passing from the right and left directions busy holding folders and in an office mode attitude.

"Come, let us go to your office" Adam then opened the door of Andrew's office. "Come bro, quick" he whispers but now it is quiet loud. He slides down the window blinds and sigh, looking to Andrew's direction and said "Now we can talk".

Andrew attempted to continue to talk but Adam again interrupted "Wait! Is it what I think it is?!"

Andrew looks so puzzled, "What?" the only word he can utter.

"Now you acted like you do not know? Whoa! Bro you are something huh" Adam said teasingly with his hands beside his mouth.

"Wait bro, what are you talking? Now Andrew's hands are up as if some guards check his body.

"Oh! I know that face. So you really do not have a clue?" Adam figured Andrew's "seriously what is happening" face.

"No!" Andrew angrily said then turns his back to sit on his chair.

"First. Check your twitter" Adam instructed.

Andrew puts his hands to his pocket. Left, right, and both pockets on the back, but there is no sign of cellphone.

"Fudge! My phone is not in here! Andrew said still continue searching in his pockets.

"What will you do without me" Adam said while holding his phone. "You know, you should consider me to be your secretary but with a raised, of course."

After tapping to his phone for a second, Adam give gives it to Andrew. "Here look." he said.

Andrew reads the tweet and proceed to his telephone which is connected to his secretary.

"Mars, please free my schedule today after my presentation"

"Got it Sir Andrew" Mars politely replied.

"And now you sounded like you're her best friend" Adam said in a jealous tone.

"Shut up bro! It was her real name" Andrew replied in a serious voice.

"So what is the shit going on between you two" Adam with his voice sounded like an investigator.

"I do not know. It is private." Andrew replied.

"Private? Since you have Mars you keeping things to me?" Adam shockingly said.

"Tell me, do you want to date Mars, Adam? Andrew said teasingly "Why you keep making an issue on her. That tactics huh!"

"No!�� Adam said loudly but not in an angry voice, just loud.

Adam and Andrew have been friends since their university years. Andrew is one of the heirs of the company along with her older sisters and Adam had been lucky to land a job in his friend's company without any recommendations from Andrew. Andrew, himself, has a lot to prove to his father, being an only son does not give him an advantage at all.

"Hmmm just another quarrel? but I think this one is intense huh? Last day has been summoned" Adam said with his face teasing.

"I do not know bro, like really I do not have a clue?" Andrew responded with his eyebrows meeting in the center that wrinkled his forehead.

"Well, bro you're older than her, ten years older. You live quite long to possible know the cause your problem, the girl possible waiting for your appearance in her door right now." Adam said before drinking his iced Americano. He ordered it and Mars picks it up and delivered it to Andrew's office.

When Mars enters, Andrew pretended to cough and teasingly said, "Adam here is your order" then smiled.

"Thank you Mars." Adam said coldly. "Oh! Now that I said it, it feels like you we are my best friends" Adam awkwardly said with a "HAHAHA" awkward pretentious laugh.

"You are welcome Sir Adam" Mars said politely and smiled which reveals her dimple. She then goes out to give the two the privacy.

"I will meet her after my presentation" Andrew said in a serious tone. He opened his laptop and checked his PowerPoint presentation, this is his awaited time to get the shot of being promoted to a higher position.

"She did not go to work today bro, just so you know. It is already 9 am and no sign of Lucy at all." Adam said. "A man who has a lot of priorities, Oh Andrew! I do not wish to be you. There is Lucy, job, and a father who expects his only son to be the worthy heir that he should be" he added.

Andrew sigh heavily. He did not foresee that their fight will come this far. Break up.

He only experienced breaking up to a girl once. Yes, Lucy is Andrew's second girlfriend and before Lucy came Andrew feels like he has found "the one". Yet, the girl breaks up to him. Citing that she has the problem and Andrew has nothing to do about it. He begged for months to win her back but she keeps on rejecting him.

It took a year for Andrew to move on. He went to America to avoid any remnants of his past.

Andrew stay silent for a moment and just watching the view from his window.

"Talk to you later bro I have a job to keep" Adam said and then turned his back with a heavy sigh.
