017

It will not be a problem if I said 'yes', right? Besides, I already did and we're actually in the movie's plot. We're both silent as it plays, he's actually pretty serious with it. If he do something funny as Joanna thinks, I will be really in danger. The bushes, him being suspicious about it and to Joanna is a red flag waving before my eyes. I looked at him.

Are you really going to betray me in the future?

I immediately look away when he turned his head on my direction.

"You're still thinking about what happened earlier?"

I looked at him again. Wondering what he is talking about. I raised my eyebrows to him.

"Nothing" he said and went back to watching.

I focused on watching on his phone until the movie ended. He walked me to our staircase that will lead to my room. We exchanged good nights and I went upstairs. I stopped on my track just to look back at him. He's still there, standing as if he's making sure that I will be upstairs. I smiled at him before continuing. I went inside my room and laid on my bed, looking at the ceiling. He has the phone. Joanna's plan should proceed.

Morning came and I woke up earlier than usual. I'm already ready to go to school before Amy could knock. When I opened the door, her arms are about to do so.

"Good morning, Miss"

"Morning"

"You're up early today" she noticed. Well, this is really a first. I myself is surprised that I got up early. It's actually late when I slept last night but the need to tell Joanna personally what happened last night made me up.

"Yeah. I'm guess I'm excited to start my day already. Where were you last night?"

"I'm in the maid's quarter, Miss" she smiled. I nodded.

I did the usual and went inside the car.

"Good morning, Miss" Eros said. He's in his usual face. The all smile that you could see it in his eyes.

"Morning" he started the engine and drove.

"I was informed that the Miss is going to school already" Guess I won't do this again.

"Hmm." I just said. I don't know what to answer in what he said. Better say less from now on.

"Do you got anything to do in the school that you need to be early for?"

"Nothing much. Joanna and I just want to be in the school today. Why?" he shook his head. Maybe I could make him busy? So he couldn't think of something that could be bad. "Do you have time?"

"I have plenty. Do you wanna go somewhere?"

"No, no. Uhm, I want you to work in the café? You have plenty of time, yes?" he didn't answer. I just heard him sigh. "You don't want to? I thought you will be happy because you don't have anything to do" I said a bit poking with his conscience. I was told that this is my strength. Might as well use it now.

"I didn't said that" I moved forward to see him in driver's seat. His eyes is on the road and looked serious. I smiled at this side of him. He looks more handsome than ever. If there'll be a chance where I can see him in slacks and suit, I'll definitely grab it.

"What is your decision, then? Is it a wonderful yes? Or a sorrowful no?" I used my puppy eyes. "I'll be there everyday and you're still my driver, so no worries"

"Fine. I don't really have a choice, it was you who said that. Even if you're voice is too soft, it came out as a command. Something that I shouldn't disobey"

"Does it really sound like it? I'm sorry. I didn't mean to"

"There's nothing to be sorry about. Don't worry about it. Command or not I will gladly oblige" I smiled and sat properly. When I looked outside the window. I saw a car beside us. Their windows are down and from where I sat, I could see three people in it. The person in the backseat and is looking at our car. This is heavily tinted but the way he looked at my direction is like he can see me through. He even waved his hand with his creepy smile flashed through his face.

"Eros" I called.

"Hmm?"

"Could you go faster?"

"Why?"

"The guy in the car next to ours is creepy" I saw his head turned from right then left where the guy is.

"Please put on your seatbelt, Miss" His looked at me through the rearview. I nodded and obliged. As soon as we heard the click, he drove faster than his usual. We passed through but he continued driving that way. I didn't ask him about it but we're already in my school without him talking.

I just said my good bye and then he left. I just shrugged it off and looked for Joanna to report. I saw her in the waiting shed standing. We just smiled at each other and walked together to our classroom. We are early that's why there are not much students in the campus. I reported what happened last night as we walk. She just listened and when I finished she's just silent and looked like something is still bothering her.

"Why?"

"Nothing. I'm just thinking of how he acts on certain situations. He seemed normal most of the time but when the 'bushes' thing happened, he slips off his character"

"So, he has the phone. Is there anything I could do?" it kinda excites me because this looks like a missions I saw on movies and series.

"You sure you didn't do anything aside from giving him a phone?"

"W-well, I also gave him another job?"

"You did.. what?"

"I thought that I should kept him busy. So he will be too busy to think of something"

"Do you really think that he's not smart? He managed to pull the fictional character up without you noticing"

"I just thought about it this morning, please don't be angry anymore"

She rolled her eyes and pulled out her phone from her skirt. She tapped something on it and then we heard Eros' voice from it.
