Chapter: Superstitious belief

TOM POV:

He woke up early in the morning, he took a bath, he wore a suit, he didn't eat breakfast because he knew that her mother would prepare for him. He went to the parking lot and drove off to work.

The guard greeted him when he came in, the receptionist greeted him also, he walked straight through the elevator.

When the elevator opened he went inside, he pressed the floor where his office is.

When the elevator slowly closed, before the door totally closed someone ran and told wait for her.

He suddenly hold the elevator and opened the door.

When the door opened,

It was Anna, trying to catch her breath, she was standing and leaning forward and supporting body with hands on the knees thus she could breathe easily.

She stooped up when the elevator opened

"Oh no ! " she uttered but Tom could hear her voice

he saw Anna's reaction, frowned and she leisurely stepped back

Tom moved closer to her and suddenly pulled her, And he pressed to close the door

" You went home early yesterday ?"

Anna nodded "Yes"

"Why?" He asked, "Something happened?"

"Don't want to bother you " she answered quickly and moved aside to the corner

Tom looked at her, and Anna looked at him so fiercely

And she forced to smile at him "I'm just kidding... " and she looked away

He messy her hair

"Hey !" Anna said as she hold his hand to stop him from messing up her hair

They looked locked, and she let go of his hand

"I told you, not to do that," she said "It's really hard to fix my hair "

Tom bend his body toward Anna, he looked closely at her eyes,

Anna's heart beating fast, she suddenly kicked his right leg, because she couldn't stay looking at him,

"Ouch," Tom while massaging his tibia part "what are you doing ?" He asked

"Tsk" Anna clicked her tongue "from now on don't be closer to me, we need 1meter away from each other, or else, I will kick your legs "

"What I do?" He wondered "You're my little sister, so what is wrong with you?... is it bad to look at you like that, You too small so I needed to bend my body ... remember I am tall and you short" he explained

"Tsk !" She clicked her tongue "You always bullied me" she raised her voice

"Bullied you? of course I am not, and I noticed

That you tied your hair even if it's wet, you shouldn't do that" he said

"I have wavy hair, so it's not good to let down my hair, no... Not my thing" she explained

Tom studied her, he stood in front of her

"Don't look at me" she noticed

"Look at me" Tom teased her and stepped toward her

"I said No, !" She replied looking at her left side

In her peripheral vision, she saw Tom moving closer to him

"What are you doing?" She asked while her hands shielded her body she suddenly bowed her head to avoid looking at him and she abruptly put her hands on Tom's chest She was trying to push him backward but Tom didn't stop moving closer to her

Tom held her small face and forced her to lift her face, Anna closed her eyes

"Open your eyes " he commanded "and look at me Anna, you seemed to avoid and uneasy to me, I think you're avoiding me?"

Anna shook her head

"I said looked at me Anna," he said seriously

Anna opened her eyes and looked at him

Anna hold her breath when he saw Tom's face closer, they stared. Anna gulped while staring at him, she felt her heart want to come out from underneath her sternum, her heart pumped a lot of blood that flushed to her body including her face, which made her blush.

Tom looked seriously at her " You blushed? He said " Are you sick? He worried he suddenly checked her forehead if she had a fever

Anna doesn't know what to do, or how she will avoid him, and she abruptly hits him on his face using her head.

Tom let go of her, he was holding his nose, he was hurt.

"What are you doing?" He asked "Ouch!!!" He said while Holding his nose

Anna doesn't know what to do,

" I am sorry," she said trying to help him

Tom lifted his head and looked to Anna angrily

Anna was in shock when she saw Tom's nose start to bleed.

"Oh my...Kuya your nose " Anna was frightened

"What?"He replied "Oh my oh my " he saw blood on his palm, and he took his handkerchief in his pocket and put it on his nose "Look what have you done?" He says and he tilts his head

"O no! No! don't tilt your head, just lean forward and continue pinching your nose" She commanded "And let's put an ice pack on the clinic, oh I have no keys" she smirked

Tom leaned his head and pinched his pointed nose.

"What?" He answered "Let's go to my office, I have an ice pack there "

They both went to Tom's office, Anna got the ice pack from his personal refrigerator, in the corner beside the bookshelf

"Here" Anna gave it to him " I am sorry " she was apologetic

Tom remained silent sitting on the couch, he applied the ice pack to his nose

" I know it's my fault, because of you if you didn't do that," she raised his voice "I will not hit your face " she lowered her tone

"Because you were stubborn, I told you to look at me, so I did that" he explained

" tsk!" She remained standing in front of him

" you called me kuya !" He removed the ice pack on his nose " And I like that" he continued "I will forgive you if you're going to call me Kuya from now on" he requested

"Anna smiled "As long as you remained 1meter away from me " she demanded

"What?" He wondered "That's it," He asked "all right, from now on call me Kuya, and I will do that if that makes you happy" he continued

Anna nodded and forced to smiled

"And don't bully me anymore "

"I didn't bully you," he said "How many times have I told you I am not bullying you," he said

Anna smirked at him

"Are you sure I didn't break the bones?" She worried "What if we need to seek a consultation first, or the Doctor will prescribe an x-ray " she suggested

"If you break my nose line, be ready because I will do the same thing to you" he replied and put the ice on his nose " don't worry " he tried to comfort her feelings "but if my bones in here are broken, be prepared " he warned her

"What? My nose is not pointed just like yours, so ...."

Tom stared at her Anna suddenly covered her nose and ran out to his office

"Anna " Marvin greeted her when she opened the door "What are you doing here?"

"Mi.....Mr. Yang" she stuttered

She looked back to Tom was sitting on the couch.

Marvin was intrigued, so he followed her look.

" What happened to him !"

" I am sorry, it's my fault " she was guilty

Marvin walked in and he closed the door,

"Come, Anna," he said

"She accidentally hit my face" Tom interrupted " but don't worry, it doesn't bleed anymore " he continued

Marvin smiled at Anna " I brought some breakfast here, so joined with him" he says

"No no...thanks, I did my breakfast," she said

Suddenly growled her stomach and Marvin chuckled when he heard her stomach growling

Anna closed her eyes and bit her lower lip because she was ashamed

"Uh oh!" Tom smiled

"Joined with him, I brought a lot of food...don't be shy," Marvin said "Come" he continued

"Sit beside Tom, " he said while he put the bento boxes on the center table.

Anna licked her lips when she saw the breakfast that Ms. Janeth prepared for Tom.

" These foods were his favorite when he was young," Marvin said to Anna and Tom helping his father open the bento boxes

Pancakes, egg roll, hot chocolate with marshmallows, toasted bread with cheese on top, bacon, and with apple and kiwi fruit

Anna smiled at them

Tom gave her a bento, she put it on her lap and she digs in.

"Thank you, Lord," she said

Marvin and Tom looked at her while smiling

"I'll be going," Marvin said "Hey, call your mother later" and he looked at Anna " Anna enjoy your meal, okay," he said

Tom and Anna nodded

Marvin stood up and left the room

The two are having breakfast, Anna enjoys the food.

Tom put the honey and butter in pancakes and put on her bento

"No no!" She tried to stop him " I don't like pancakes," she said

"Really?"

Anna nodded,

"Okay," he took the pancakes and ate them. "Everyone loves it, except you" he continued "Especially Mildred, she loves it hmmm," he said

Anna smiled "How is she, I'm sure you miss her a lot?"

"Yes!" He answered quickly "Every second and every minute, I do miss her"

Anna smiled at him

"By the way Congratulations!" She congratulated him "Finally you proposed to her"

"Yes, Thank you, everyone is happy for us, except Chairman Yang "

Anna coughed when she heard him, she remembered the contract about their fixed marriage, so she started to worry again

Tom hurriedly gave her his chocolate drink and Anna refused him

" Are you okay," he said

"Number?" she excused

"What?" He wondered "What number?"

"Gave me a number 1-26 only"

"What for?" He asked

Anna hissed "Gave me a number first before I will tell you"

"11" he quickly responded and ate his bacon

She started counting the letters until 11, "it's Letter K"

"So?" He intrigued

"Someone miss me" she was kilig " started with the letter K"

Tom smirked at her "That's a superstitious belief, you're a nursing student do you believe in that?" He said "That's not true," he said and drank his chocolate

"Don't ruin my day, okay?" she said "Even if I am a nursing student, sometimes there are things that science can't explain" she explained to him

Tom chuckled "So who is this letter K, you seemed excited about it," he noticed

Anna smiled something sparked in her eyes "It's Kevin" she answered

"Kevin?" He asked, "Who is he?"

"He's my crush on school" she proudly said

"Oh, does he know that, " he asked

"No" she replied

"Tsk tsk " he clicked his tongue "You should eat a lot huh" he put some bacon on her bento "And this " pointing to the fruit "You should eat this," he said "tsk tsk " he clicked his tongue "no one will ask you out if your super-duper thin" he continued

Anna smirked after she heard him

"Ui..of course, there's a guy who would like me, there is someone who would like my super-duper thin" she defended herself

Tom laughed "Only fucked boys would do that" he replied

"Hey!" She replied "Ui, it doesn't mean they are fucked boys, don't be like that," she said

Tom shook his head "No one would like you" he teased her

Anna put down her spoon and fork "You're so mean" she said

"I'm just kidding," he flicked her forehead

"Ouch," she said

"You should eat, hmm" he continued eating

She smirked at him

The two of them enjoyed their breakfast.

"Oh emm geee!" She said "Im full" she continued " arigatou gozaimasu " she spoke Japanese language meaning thank you

"Doitashimashite" he replied meaning you're welcome

"Oh, you speak Nihongo?" He asked

"A little, " she smiled "I learned from watching anime"

Tom was amazed at her

"What's your favorite?" He asked

"Inuyasha" she replied happily "I love Inuyasha" she continued

Tom laughed at her

"What about you, ?" She asked interesting

"No, I randomly watched anime, not my forte..but when I was a young age.I am watching samurai x..." he replied

"Hmmm...okay" she replied

They both cleaned the table.

" I have to go bye bye," Anna said and stood up

Tom nodded and smiled

"Okay, see you at lunch sister," he said while waving to her

Anna nodded "okay !" And she continued walking

"Hey !" Tom called her

Anna looked back

"What?"

"Be good, " he said "don't hit someone else " and he removed his blazer and sat on his desk

Anna smirked at him "yes ...yes.. Kuya!" she replied sarcastically

"Good and close the door," he said

Anna left on his office,

Some of his officemates looked at her

Anna sighed and continued walking to the clinic
