Chapter 15 Sorry

Angelica

He really left, He really did left and do modeling. At first I don't really believe it, I thought it was just an excuse so he won't see me... So he won't see us, Me and Zeke. I know he's already a model because one of his friends told me but I refused to believe it, I won't believe it until I see it. Now that he's in front of me doing modeling, posing like a model, walk like a model, talk like a professional model made me really think other wise. He did left me, and he acted like nothing happened making my insides boil in anger.

"Angelica? You ready?" Jade called.

Ignoring my thoughts, I smiled. "Ready as I'll ever be."

"Nicholas, stay in the middle that suit is a precious meat to the costumer. Make it presentable and comfortable." Jade said, "And the rest make it bloomy okay?"

I snapped a few photos here and there but every time I click my camera all I see is Nicholas' emerald eyes. I snap a few and he kept on focusing on the camera. I don't know if he is staring at me or the camera, I don't know if he's acting professional or playing with me.

Am I being played?

"Well done Nic. Another strong glare please!" Jade shouted behind me and making my insides jump.

I snapped another Photo.

Those eyes... those eyes that left me trembling before, The eyes that made me feel love and adored, I loved those eyes when they only belong to mine. I look closely to his angle and he started to held his chains, what is he doing?

I snapped another one.

He held his chain while looking at me or at camera? I kept on snapping on every pose he make. He's making the suite so presentable, he look so hot in that outfit. He lifted his chains and bit it between his teeth, he look so freaking hot, and his looking at me still. I feel so seduce even though he wasn't even doing it. Is my period coming?

This better be my hormones or I'm going crazy.

"Yes Nicholas, Stronger! Again Nicholas. Held the suite. Dance through the suite like its yours!" Jade said hyping him up.

I gulped my dried throat, "What's wrong with me?" I whispered to myself.

He started to play with his chains and started to caress his big hands on the suite, embracing it and loving it and narrowing his eyes like any professional model would do. He looked at me smirking like he knows what he is doing to me.

I shouldn't be affected by his stares, smirks and smiles. I shouldn't be or this photoshoot is gonna be the end of me. Some models are embracing him, hugging him and simply just touching him just to display and exposed the clothes as it should be. They look all good together but Nicholas stares are so different from the rest, like he's doing it on purpose cause he knows I'm looking and he knows how to make me weak.

He knows me too well still.

I stopped the snaps and look at the screen, "Wow that's a nice shoot right there," I said trying to erase the seductive stares of Nicholas inside my head. "I love this designs they are all well made."

Jade smiled and said, "You have such good taste, I like you already."

A few hours passed, it was already night time and It made me miss Zeke already, I should Call Sarah. Jade gave us an hour break since we've been working this morning.

I looked up and examine the black sky, hoping to see a star and I did. Stars are so invisible in the city, you can barely see one but seeing one right now makes it look so beautiful. I took out my phone and glanced at the time, it was already 8. I facetime Sarah, she answer on the third ring.

"Angela," Sarah answered. "I'm sorry I was tidying Zeke's toys. The boy misses you." Sarah put her phone down, good enough for me to see her. "Zeke is inside his room, I'm gonna tuck him right after I clean the living room. He's reading Winnie the Pooh or something." She picked the last toy on the floor.

I chuckled, "I hope he's not mad that I'm gone all day." I said.

"Zeke understand your hard work, Angela. I remind him everyday." Sarah said and grab her phone, base from the loud thuds I can sense she's going upstairs. "Zeke, Mama called." I heard a door creaked.

"Mommy!"

I waved my hand in front of my phone, "Hi, baby. I miss you." I frowned, "I'm sorry I'm gone all day."

Zeke smile. "No it's okay mommy. What time will you be home?"

"I don't know love but I'll be home soon," I said. "Have you been a good boy all day?"

Zeke smiled, showing his teeth. "Of course. Right Sarah?"

"Of course, he's been behaving real good." Sarah said and joined Zeke on his bed.

"That's great to hear. I promise if I'm done with work, we will play and go out as much as we can, okay?" I said.

Zeke giggled, "Okay, I love you bye I have to finish reading this book."

"I love you too, goodbye." And Sarah ended the call, I let out a sigh of relief.

"Hey," A voice said made me startled, I almost drop my phone.

"You should stop doing that," I complained, "Don't give me heart attacks." I glared at him, did he heard me calling Zeke? "What are you doing here?"

"I usually come here..." He said. Well has he come here a lot? "I mean since I found this place I come here a lot." He sat down, few inches away from me. He grab something in his pockets, the small white stick made me recognize what it was. He grab a lighter on his other pocket and light the cigarette, inhaling and release a puff of smoke.

"You didn't quite smoking?" I asked.

He shook his head as he stared at the white stick between his fingers, "No. But I don't really smoke much anymore, unlike before. I tried to quite but it is very difficult."

"I'm glad your starting to take it down," I said. The tension is so awkward, I started to rubbing my thumbs together. "I never knew you'd be here."

Nicholas chuckled, "Me too. I thought I'd never see you again," He looked at me and back at his cigarette. "How is... you know?..."

I look at the dark sky, "How's who?" I said coldly.

He cleared his throat, "I know your mad."

"You think?" I snapped.

"But I wanted to say I'm sorry."
