Why did you have to lie to me?

The business trip was fast approaching. It was in two days and both Nora nor Jason wasn't looking forward to it.

Nora couldn't imagine herself staying with someone that gets irritated just by looking at her for a week.

Jason also couldn't bring himself to it because he was so mad at her and would find it hard not to express his emotions.

They were both thinking about how they'd cope. It wasn't their first or second trip together but it felt like it was.

"Good morning sir" she bowed as she entered his house.

It's been a while since she's been to his house because he instructed her not to come anymore.

He nodded and continued with his dressing.

She exited the dressing room to the sitting room as she was frustrated.

"Secretary Nora" Butler Park called. Turning around to see the individual she remembered that she had something under her sleeves.

Being Isabel and at the same time Nora was a hard thing for her, and remembering that she had to see Butler Park when she was both was annoying.

Why don't I just call Jason and tell him I'm no longer interested. I can't continue like this.

Another thing was that he was frustrating her as Nora and at the same time Isabel.

Nora turned quickly ducking her head beneath the little table in front of the couch.

"Good morning Butler Park" She greeted without bringing up her head.

Butler Park who knew what was going on just smiled and said "It's better to let the cat out of the bag"

Without waiting for her reaction he left for the kitchen. "I hope she heeds my advice"

***

The day was hectic as usual with Jason carrying a cold shoulder.

Whatever the problem was, she was ready to find out...but how? He wasn't saying anything and this added to her frustration.

She entered into the office holding onto a file she had reviewed over fifty times.

"Sir, I just reviewed the file for the 50th time" She said with a sarcastic grin.

Jason stood up from his seat and moved to her with both of his hands in his pocket.

He kept coming closer until there wasn't space for air between them.

Nor began to move back "Sir" What the heck is he doing to me?

His heart was now racing and she was finding it so hard to breathe.

Jason who was now very close to her muttered "Is she scared of me?"

He stopped and looked down at her little face which was now crimson. He wrapped his hands around her waist to pull her closer to him before staring at her closed eyes.

"Why did you have to lie to me?" he voiced calmly.
