Work is finally done, I can now go home and sleep since my shift is over. Noah's nagging all day, saying that I already tear down his ear pulling it like a freakin' door. I laugh at that, he's making all the fuss looking cute as he pouted his lips while his eyes are teary.
I got curious to how things going on, like does he still have feelings for Dana? or has he ever realize that he shouldn't be like that, happiness was knocking on his door but those walls are blocking it, leads in his misery. He was trapped in his own feelings, can't get out of it screaming to be free from all the pain.
Even though I can't hear his whimpers, I can still see the pain behind those eyes, behind those smiles, and behind those laughs. The urge to break those walls fearing its still rigid as he protects it.
I am now packing all my things preparing myself to go home, I'm watching him working, scanning all the papers, raising his eyebrows as he put those hands on his temples. I suddenly felt happiness, I would still choose to be with him and prefer to watch him all day studying every actions he makes, even in darkest times I would still choose to walk those dark tunnels with him even though he can't see me.
When all my things are settled, I go to his office and give him a can of coffee that I bought awhile ago.. I remember how the old lady on the café says something that made me regret and yet happy at the same time.
*Flashback*
"Can you get me some coffee? I'm sorry I'm a bit busy, I need to edit those remaining photos in my folder and now is the deadline.." He pleaded, looking stress and tired.
"Sure, what do you want?"
"Iced Americano will do," He forced a smile and go back to his office.
He's stressing his self too much, he can do it one by one, he can also ask for my help since I also have an experienced in photo editing not just photography I can do whatever he pleases since he's near giving up.
I went on a café nearby and order, an old lady suddenly appeared on the other side wearing a nice dress looking stunning in her age, she smiled at me so I gave her a genuine smile also. I was surprised when she approach me removing her sunglasses as she face me.
"Are you the girl who's working on that shop?" She asks.
I looked at her and nods, "Yeah, that's me miss.. Do you know me?"
"A young handsome man came here a while ago, looking for you.. He comes here time to time, checking if you're already here but unluckily you didn't even pass by.." She says as she looked into my eyes.
Oh, I know that's Noah. He mention it awhile ago that he's looking for me and that is because he cannot handle all the works alone anymore..
"Do you know where he goes? or his name?" I asked.
The old lady crossed her arms as she tries to remember it. Looking at her age, she still looks young not just by her looks but also in her sense of fashion. She's wearing a simple white dress while her hair was curl in its end.
"I think I saw him entering that shop also," She points our shop.
Confirmed, its really Noah.
"Are you okay?" She suddenly asks so I was surprised.
"Yeah, I'm okay. Why?"
"That young man looks very worried earlier, he was asking my staffs for how many times and so as our customers.." She's now smiling.
Oh god, what did he do?
"I'm so sorry for what he did. He's just a bit weird, but he's normal.. I apologize in his behalf,"
I don't know what I'm gonna do to you Noah. Seriously, he's embarrassing his self, I was actually got his permission to go out and take a short break but now he's hunting me like a wild animal looking for a food in the forest and when he can't find me, he waited for me on the shop and throw me some useless words.
The woman laugh and I was a bit dumbfounded, she literally laugh in front of me and I'm the only one she talks too.. I don't know what exactly she's laughing at, I should ask her.
When she realized that I'm looking at her, she finally stops and smiles. I know that's not creepy.
"Are you that hard to your boyfriend?" She asks while smiling.
I was shocked to what she said. What? who's my boyfriend?
"Boyfriend?" I repeated, confirming it.
"He said, he's your boyfriend.." The old woman smirks and my jaw dropped to what she said.
The last words she said was circling and repeating inside my ears like a broken record.
"He said, he's your boyfriend.."
"He said, he's your boyfriend.."
"He said, he's your boyfriend.."
"He said, he's your boyfriend.."
"He said, he's your boyfriend.."
It repeats and repeats and my head almost burst!
I think Noah's got lost for a while not me, he was lost to his self and he's saying some nonsense words. How dare him tries to used me to get what he wants, I never had a chance to go out and take a break and he still wants to ruin it.
He's crazy..
"He said, you're beautiful and I can see the sincerity when he said that.. I can tell that every words that comes from his mouth is true.. You're so lucky, darling.." She smiles.
Her reaction was telling me that it's true. But somehow, when I think about how he talked to me awhile ago and how rude he is, I can't seem to believe it! Like how he makes me feel like I'm not important and yet he still manage to look for me and tell everyone that he's my boyfriend.
I think this woman was just mesmerized by his looks and nothing more..
But I think Noah is worried and it makes me feel confused and guilty!!
*End of flashback*
I shake my head and bid my goodbye to him. Tomorrow will be a long day, I need to prepare for this big chance.
When I walk to the door, I turn to face his office and smile, "Good night, Noah!" I shout, I don't know if he heard it or not.
I finally stepped outside, I giggle and run towards the convenient store, my friends and I will hang out tonight.
To be continued....
