Kenzo and Yara came back to the office. They became a little bit shy with each other but they have happy smiles on their faces.
"Darling, where have you been? I've been waiting for you for almost an hour now." It was Sapphire's voice.
Kenzo and Yara were both surprised and their smiles were gone seeing Sapphire inside the office.
"What are you doing here?" Kenzo asked that made Sapphire furrowed her forehead.
Yara sat on her chair and pretended to be busy with the documents on her table. Kairo, Kylo, and Buster were sitting on the couch and they smelled something fishy is going on.
"I used to visit you unannounced so why are you asking me why I'm here now." Sapphire said a little annoyed and looked at Yara.
"That's not what I meant. We're going to see each other later right so I was just surprised seeing you here." Kenzo said.
"I'm missing you so I decided to come and stay till dinner so you don't have to fetch me from home." Sapphire said while hugging Kenzo.
Kenzo looked at Yara but the girl was still pretending to be busy. Kenzo sighed.
"Let's talk inside." Kenzo said and walked towards his room leaving Sapphire behind.
Sapphire was used to Kenzo's aloofness. He's the passive and she's the active one in terms of their relationship. But when she came back from the States few days ago and saw the new secretary, she somewhat felt that Kenzo became more distant towards her. Before she enters Kenzo's office, she looked at Yara.
"Who are you really? Why do I feel that you have already took something from me?" Sapphire said to herself.
When the couple was already inside the room, the three men encircled Yara's table. Yara raised her head and felt that she will be in the hot seat because of the questioning glares of her bosses.
"So Yara, what happened to the client's meeting?" Kairo asked with a meaningful smile on his handsome face.
"Ahm, it went well." Yara said but she continued looking on the documents.
"Is there another project for Abstract Worx?" Kylo asked closing the folder Yara is looking. Yara sighed.
Kenzo saw what his friends are doing and he knew they will not stop pestering Yara until she talks. He smiled and Sapphire saw it.
"How I wish you could smile like that when you're with me." Sapphire said to herself.
"Did you closed the deal?" Buster said sitting on Yara's table to prevent her from reading and start giving them answers.
"Sir Kairo, Sir Kylo, and Sir Buster!" Yara said looking at them one by one.
"Yes?" The three men spoke at once. Yara sighed.
"We didn't meet a client, there's no client meeting. We ate and we just talked about Dream and his plans for her." Yara said making the three men smiled.
"Then what?" Kairo asked.
"That's all." Yara said.
"Then why are you blushing like that?" Kylo said.
"I'm not!" Yara said.
"Well, you are." Buster said.
"Oh, please, stop teasing me. Nothing happened, okay?" Yara said.
"Okay, okay, you said so. But next time do us a favor, make his ears red again." Kairo said with a wink.
"Sir Kairo!" Yara said but Kairo was already inside his room waving his hands.
"Don't mind him but, it's much better if you would spend the whole afternoon smiling here, there, and everywhere." Kylo said that made Yara rolled her eyes.
"What, Sir Buster?" Yara said when she saw him looking at her with a naughty smile.
"Nothing." Buster said and went to his room smiling. Yara sighed and looked at Kenzo's office.
"What's your plan later? Where will you date me?" Sapphire tried to be in a good mood though she's feeling that this would be the end of her day dreaming.
Sapphire met Kenzo when her father decided to build a commercial building and Abstract Worx was the one hired by her father. The first time she saw him, she already admired him and as days passed by, her administration became love. Kenzo was not only handsome but he's also intelligent and a gentleman. But, he's also the most sought after bachelor of many women. She decided to pursue him and she was in heaven when he accepted to be her boyfriend but of course, her father played a big role on that.
And now, the day she feared. She knew Kenzo didn't loved her. It was just a relationship with care and respect but there's no love.
"Sapphire..." Kenzo said. He stopped what he was doing and walked towards the girl who was sitting on his couch.
"Yes?" Sapphire answered. Her heartbeat became fast.
"I have a daughter." Kenzo said.
"Oh..." Sapphire said.
"I didn't knew that I have one until the other day. She was my daughter from my past girlfriend back in high school." Kenzo continued. Sapphire tried to stop herself from crying.
"And it was Yara?" Sapphire asked.
"No, she passed away after giving birth to Dream." Kenzo said.
"So, Dream is her name. What a lovely name?" Sapphire said still trying not to cry.
"Yara is Dream's aunt and she played a great role of being a mother for my daughter for almost nine years now." Kenzo said. Sapphire's eyes started to well up.
"I had to try my best to be a great father to Dream. I had to give her what I wasn't able to give her before." Kenzo said.
"I can be a great mother too." Sapphire said and that when her tears begun to flow, Kenzo hugged her and she started to sob.
"You're a nice woman, Sapphire. You will meet other men that will love you just the way you wanted it to be." Kenzo said.
"But it's you I wanted and no one else." Sapphire said.
"No, I'm not worthy of that love." Kenzo said.
"Because you didn't love me ever since? But, I'm willing to wait for you to love me back." Sapphire said. Kenzo sighed.
"I have already loved someone before I met Dream's mother." Kenzo said.
"And it's Yara, right?" Sapphire asked wiping her tears. Kenzo nodded.
"Why?" Sapphire continued.
"I don't know either, the first time I saw her, I already liked her." Kenzo said.
"Just like what happened with me to you." Sapphire said sadly.
"But something happened and I had a relationship with her sister and that changed everything." Kenzo said.
"My gut feeling never fails me. She's really something from the time I met her. The way you looked at her. Your smiles tell me so." Sapphire said.
"I'm really sorry, Sapphire. I'm the one who should be blame on this." Kenzo said.
"Let's break up." Sapphire said suddenly and Kenzo was surprised.
"I love you but if this love will only make you suffer then, this is not love but selfishness." Sapphire continued.
"But if she will not accept you and love you the way I loved you, I will do everything to get you back, you understand?" Sapphire said. Kenzo nodded and smiled.
"That was the smile I'm hoping to see from the very start." Sapphire said to herself.
"I should be going. My flight will be late this evening. I'm going back to the States." Sapphire said and immediately stood up and hurriedly walked towards the door. Kenzo stood up too.
"Just stay there and don't move." Sapphire said and Kenzo understood what she meant.
"So, this is not goodbye but I will see you again, Kenzo." Sapphire said and went out.
Yara stood up when she saw Sapphire coming out from Kenzo's office. She bowed to give her respect. Sapphire stopped in front of Yara's table. Yara furrowed her forehead when she saw Sapphire's swollen eyes.
"Yara, right?" Sapphire said.
"Yes, Ma'am." Yara answered.
"Take good care of Kenzo. I will come back and if I find out that you didn't do what I've said, I will fire you out of his life." Sapphire said and hurriedly went out.
Yara creased her brow looking at the door where Sapphire went out.
Kairo, Kylo, and Buster heard what Sapphire said and they all smiled. Kenzo went out of his room.
"This calls for a celebration!" Kairo said. Kenzo smiled and Yara frowned.
"People on this office are weird." She said to herself.
When Sapphire was already inside her car, she let out the all the tears she's been trying to hide. After a while, she looked at the building particularly on the fourth floor.
"Goodbye, Kenzo..." she said and started her car and left the place.
