Chapter 15 Realization- I like him
Mrs Ahlam.
"Come in,"I moved away from him while he welcomed his guest yeah guess who?
" You have never ever had lunch before in office, wow what has she brought that is so special until you denied to have lunch with me,"she told him in a seductive tone while he was just waiting for my reaction may be for me to go stop the drama and rescue him.
"That's none of your business it's matter between a husband and wife and you are being the third wheel," I said in a firm tone and my husband's eyes widened and he smirked he pushed her finally.
"You heard my wife now get lost before I do something we both will regret, I will have lunch only with her only with my wife," he said while he stared at me intently his gaze was doing strange things to my poor heart.
She cursed something and glared at me she was mad extremely mad of being rejected I felt bad for her but better to be rejected than when she gets into deep with him and gets her heart broken.
She stomped her foot and slammed the door with a loud bang once she left.
"Let's have lunch," he whispered next to my ear and shivers ran down my spine, stay calm Ahlam don't let him win.
"Please," he pleaded so now he was using this method.
I have never seen this side of him. I smiled.
"I will do anything ,in fact I will cook even dinner for you anything to convince you," he whispered and pulled me on his lap my eyes widened.
"Are you forgetting that we are in your office ?someone will come in anytime," I told him shyly but he just chuckled.
"Don't you have any work my dear CEO?" I asked him teasingly.
We ate lunch all while he was being extra careful with me he even ordered my medicines from home with a driver and applied ointment on my left hand which was really painful but he just kept applying so carefully as if one wrong move and I will break.
Tears were brimming from my eyes seeing this side of him, how can someone be so loving?
I adjusted my spectacles he moved my sleeves a bit up I tried to move my hands away there were scars he didn't know of.
"Please don't," I refused him but he just stared with a dark look when he gazed at my scars on my arm.
"Please stop," I tried to hold his hand but he just removed it.
He slowly moved my other wrists up also and his eyes widened with concern.
He just stared silently observing me, please say something I tried to cover my left hand but his cold voice stopped me.
"Just don't," he warned me in cold tone and I flinched back.
"Explain yourself," that's all he said while he stood up and banged his hand on his desk. He called someone and spoke something furiously which I didn't even catch.
"What are these scars of?" He asked again.
"They were of before," I gave him an excuse and he just gave me hard look, we both knew this wasn't reason there was something else.
"I am sorry," I apologised I didn't even know why I was apologising but I couldn't see him so distant and cold and it was my fault I never told him full truth about myself but I thought he knew.
I can't see him like this, the man I like ya Allah I like him, I really like him and I just stared at him and he raised his knitted brows.
"What?why are you smiling like crazy or like you figured out something while am trying my best to be mad at you," he said as he came and sat next to me.
"Who did this?" His face softened when he asked with curiosity and wrapped on me coat which was way too large, first time since marriage I wore something of his, and I liked it, I really really like my husband it just took him few months to melt my heart.
"What's gotten in to you today?" He asked while I couldn't even meet his gaze this was all so new to me he was asking me some questions while I was lost very far away he must have even noticed my cheeks which were so red like tomato paste by now. Ya Allah help me.
He was just at lost of words and damn did he look more handsome I did something which I thought I would never do, like never make a first move.
I wrapped my arm around him and hugged him highly which took him off-guard as he took sosmtime to wrap his arm around me.
"Are you okay?" He questioned while I clutched his arm tightly without any care in the world. I was just too emotional to realise anything else.
I felt safe and comfortable around him, I never thought I would like someone else again after whatever I went through I just hope that he doesn't break my heart in to million pieces.
***
He walked into my heart like he always belonged there, does this even make sense, what's gotten into me?took down my walls and lit into light and brightness.Still can't believe it.
"Hey, where are you lost?" I felt a hand on my shoulder and stared at him, he looked at me with concerned eyes and soften face again
