As soon as Maddie left, the food that Yve ordered came inside. Yve guided the staff on where the food would be placed. As soon as the waiter finished, he left the office. Yve, on the other hand, called Vince.
"Vince, let's eat together. I bet you haven't eaten your lunch yet." Yve said but she didn't hear any word from Vince. She turned around and saw the Vince was looking up and down from his laptop and the documents at his hands. Yve approached Vince and and hugged him from behind.
Vince acted as if he didn't heard Yve but from the moment he heard the waiter opened the door, he knew that Yve wanted to eat together. However, he can't erase the name 'Tristan' on his mind. Even his mother knew about the guy and wanted him to be a model for Noble. He must be pretty handsome. He also cannot help but think that the artist should be special to Yve since she personally brought the man to the boutique. He was engrossed in thinking deeply when he noticed that Yve hugged him. Her head is on top of his.
"What are you thinking about, Vince?" Yve asked in a sweet tone that could easily melt anyone's defense. But Vince swears not this time. He didn't utter a word.
"Did I say something wrong earlier?" Yve's voice cracked as she's filled with worry.
"..."
"Vince, please look at me and tell me. Is there something wrong?" Yve asked while holding Vince's hand.
"Nothing."
"But you've been quiet ever since you sat on your desk."
"It's just something. But you don't have to worry about it."
"But you not telling me anything worries me more. Please."
"......Tristan...." Vince said softly.
"What?"
"Tristan."
"Tristan? What about him?"
"....." Vince didn't answer but his face turned beet red in embarrassment.
Yve stood up straight and folded her hands in front of her chest.
"Don't tell me you're jealous?!"
"...."
"Are you really serious?! You're jealous of him?"
"...."
Yve laughed out loud at how red Vince's face. Vince can't help but pout at how Yve has been laughing while he's seriously jealous about that guy.
"Is it really that funny for you to laugh that hard?" Vince finally asked.
"Hahahahahaha.... Yes.. Hahahahaha... If only you can see your face...." Yve said in between her attempts to stop laughing.
"...."
"Don't get mad. I'm sorry. It's just there's nothing for you to be jealous about."
"....."
"Okay. I'll explain everything."
Yve gave in and explained the things that happened that day as she drag Vince towards the couch. Vince is still not looking but he's accepting the plate with food handed by Yve. He's being attentive to what Yve's story.
"So that's it." Yve concluded.
"Hmm..."
"That's all your reaction after my explanation. Does that mean you're not jealous anymore?"
"Hmm.. *nod* Eat your food now. You must be hungry."
No words will ever be enough to express how astonished Yve was.
'After all the things I said, I only got Hmm as his reaction?! But damn he looks so cute when jealous.'
'Should I do this often?'
Yve's thoughts are all over the place as she started eating her long overdue lunch.
