Tobias stopped his car in front of a flower shop.
He went inside hastily , and when he came out, he was holding a bouquet of sunflower.
He was smiling watching the flowers. It reminded him about his Iya.
Yes, his Iya.
Tobias decided to tell her his true identity. After one week of thinking and analyzing what would be the best to do. He came to this point that, he will tell her, no matter what.
He was driving to his company joyously.
He even greeted the security guard and the people he passed through.
But all of his happiness drained out to what he saw.
----
Maria went outside the office to get water on the water dispenser in the pantry. After that she decided to went back to continue her work.
Before she can enter the office, a man called her .
"miss?"
She looked at him with confusion.
' Maybe he's here to gave me some reports, but I never seen him before.'
Maria thought to herself. She smiled politely and asked him what his up to.
"yes Sir? how can I help you?"
"ah, did Tobias arrived already?"
The man asked while looking at her.
The man was tall and handsome but not as handsome as Tobias.
Why she think of that?
"not yet Sir. I guessed he will arrived soon."
she informed him. She decided to leave him there so she can go to her work already.
"you can wait for him at the lounge Sir."
She pointed the direction of the lounge.
"I'm alright here miss...?"
The man was asking for her name. He was still looking at her intently.
"miss Maria Ho, sir."
She filled in. What's with her face, that people keep on looking at it lately?
She felt her face burned.
"nice name, I'm Jake."
he said and offer her his hand for a hand shake.
Still, looking at her.
Maria shyly accepted it and they'd shook hands.
She felt her face was on fire.
Then, they'd heard a clearing of throat sound.
Maria abruptly drew her hand back to her side and looked up to see a very serious Tobias.
"hey man!"
Jake greeted him happily and patted his shoulder.
"excuse me sirs."
Maria shyly excused herself and went inside.
She had a feeling if she won't disappeared there, the atmosphere would become more cold.
She kept on thinking about Tobias. He became distant at her this past few days.
He's talking to her, greeting her but she felt something was off. He seemed to be avoiding her but at the same time wants to be with her.
Her head aches for thinking about it. She better forgot about it. Maybe, Tobias was just be very busy to give her his attention.
What? and why would he gave her his attention? She's just a secretary.
She pushed aside that thought and continue on her work. She was busy reading and checking the folders when a bouquet of sunflower blocked her sight.
She lifted her head to see who gave her this beautiful flowers. She was mortified to saw it was Tobias.
Why was he giving her flowers? Last week was red roses and now, her favorite flower!
"Sir?"
she was confused if he was giving it to her or she just assumed.
"for you."
he offered and gave her the bouquet.
She felt her face blushed once more.
