"Even though every beauty has its limits, every step has its stumbling block and every time returns to its starting point, but that will not prevent me from loving you because deep down in my heart there will only be you. Give me one chance, and I will make sure that I will only be yours."

City B International Airport
Evelyn sat patiently in the first class lounge, waiting for Samuel to finish something in the bathroom's lounge.
"Hm, I don't care what he's doing. " Evelyn thought.
"How can he say he is serious with me, if until now he can't even hold back his spill for a moment!" Now Evelyn muttered with an irritated snort.
She realized that Samuel's confession was just a joke, if he liked her then why would he still like to play with his woman and even showed that he enjoyed it in front of her.
"Stupid," Evelyn thought irritably.
She became more annoyed when she remembered the reason why she had to wait alone.
Flashback on
Several hours before
In front of Evelyn's rented house was a black car that Evelyn recognized belonged to her boss. The car was usually used if the boss didn't want to drive by himself instead using a driver.
Evelyn's pov on
"What took you so long? Do you know that because of you we could be late, heum?" He said when I just entered the car.
"Late? Seriously? It's even still hours before take off!" I thought irritated.
But I preferred not to argue with him, because if I did, then he would be more pleased. As a result I just looked down feeling guilty and said sorry.
"Hn, don't repeat it next time," He replied briefly.
Yeah, It was better if I tried not to argue with him. I was not in a good mood, because yesterday, to be precise after I came home from work, a special guest came over to me.
"Yes Sir," I said casually.
On our way to the airport, we didn't have conversation, usually back then, when there was no crazy confess incident from him, he wouldn't be silent and would ask unnecessary things.
"Huh....Like I care," I thought ignorantly.
Then he received a call, and told the person on the phone that he was on the way to the airport.
"Meet me at the airport, honey!"
That's what I heard, then their topic turned into adultery babbling which made me nauseous. I glanced at the driver beside me who was showing a flat face. It seemed like he was used to his boss saying such adulterous words.
"This is my first time going abroad. Hopefully everything will go well!" I tried to convince myself.
It didn't take us too long to arrive at the airport. The car stopped at the spacious airport parking lot, while we got off and walked towards the entrance leaving the driver. Together we registered for check-in, hand over our luggages and pass through the immigration. After that, we sat together in the lounge. While I was still observing around, suddenly he asked me a question.
"Why didn't you protest? It's unlike you" He asked.
I gasped in surprise when I heard the question from him. I was confused about what to answer.
"Not - "
"Samuel, I'm here!"
My reply was forced to stop, when a woman's voice suddenly interrupted my words. I looked back and found a beautiful woman but unfortunately her clothes were not as beautiful as her face. She walked towards Samuel, who was currently looking at me with his lopsided smile.
"What does it mean?" I thought curiously.
But my curiosity was answered, when the woman walked a little briskly to bump her lips against Samuel's lips, his eyes instead glanced at me as if he wanted to tell me. Immediately, I looked other way, just not at the damn sight that irritated my eyes.
"Cheap woman," I cursed inside.
"I miss you!" It was the voice of the woman who, deliberately, pressed her body against Samuel's body.
"Shameless," I muttered softly, so that neither she nor Samuel would hear it.
"Follow me dear!"
And that was Samuel's reply, in his sensual tone, of course. The woman shrieked happily and followed Samuel whose damn hand could not stay still. They walked away but before that Samuel told me that I should sit down and wait for him.
Flashback end
"Damn, he thought I was going to be angry and jealous, but I'm not, instead I'm getting sick of it!" I muttered irritably.
"Am I, right?" I continued to myself.
Evelyn's pov end
Normal pov
Evelyn didn't know how long had she waited in the lounge by herself. Well, that what she thought. She didn't realize that she wasn't really alone.
Not far from where she sat, there was a man who looked at her with amused eyes. That man was Samuel, who actually didn't really do the things that was on Evelyn's mind.
He did take her to the bathroom, but only to tell her that he would not played with her or any other woman. In fact, he also mentioned that he would stop exploring because he had a lover who waited for him in the lounge, where she kissed him before.
The woman was angry, why did she ask to come to the airport if only to accept his refusal. After hearing one cold sentence from him, the woman left him after slapping him hard on the cheek, which luckily left no mark.
" I just wanted to make her jealous!" Samuel replied at that time.
So here he was, watching from afar Evelyn's activity. He was quite surprised that the stubborn Evelyn obeyed his orders.
"She obeys what I said. Actually if she acted defiant as usual, it would be more interesting. But unfortunately, this seems to have something to do with Riki that night," Samuel muttered.
He remembered clearly, when the night he waited for Evelyn, he came to her house and wanted to apologize for his behaviour toward her during the whole week, but apparently Evelyn was out with his cousin.
"She really just sat there without protesting. I like her cute and obedient manner, but her rebellious attitude makes me more challenged!" He continued muttering happily.
He looked at his watch that was wrapped around his right wrist and it showed 2 o'clock that meant they had to go the boarding gate.
Actually this was just a trick to make Evelyn coming earlier to the airport. Because it would be very annoying for Samuel if Riki picked her up first before he did, and then they had to meet each other.
In the meantime he had not told him yet that he also wanted to approach Evelyn. He even claimed ownership of Evelyn unilaterally, even though he was rejected.
"I'd better hurry," Samuel murmured.
He stepped leisurely toward Evelyn who was busy grumbling.
"It turns out that behind my back she is still defiant against me!" Samuel thought with an amused smile.
The closer he to Evelyn the more he could hear clearly, what Evelyn was saying in a mumbling voice like a bee buzzing.
"He told me not to be late, but look. He himself is having fun with his toys. You wicked man, selfish boss, Mr. Coercive, damn you with all your tyranny!"
The veins on Samuel's forehead became even more, along with the intensity of the curses Evelyn had been sending him.
His lips twitched and wanted to repay every curse for her, but he had to endure it instead he sighed and made a fist. He realized that since this was indeed his fault, from the beginning he acted like a jerk, which of course some women didn't like it.
Tap!
Finally, he was behind Evelyn without Evelyn noticed him, because Evelyn was still busy grumpy about him. So with a cold-toned question, he interrupted Evelyn's words and he was quite amused, when his assistant's body jumped in shock when she heard his voice.
Meanwhile, at the same time, Evelyn, who was not aware that her boss was already behind her, still grumbled and cursed his boss's behavior.
"Do you have to do it everyday? Can you not do something like that just for a day? Will your thing going wilt if you don't do it? Or will you -"
" Will I what Evelyn Carla?"
Deg!
Evelyn jumped up instantly when she heard a question coming from a voice of a person who had been teasing her lately. She stood up, turned around and looked surprise with her eyes bulging as Samuel stood behind her with his arms crossed into an intimidating pose.
"Tell me, will I what ?" Samuel asked again, when he didn't get an answer from Evelyn.
"I'm going to say that you will die! What? You can not accept my words?" Evelyn replied.
Her chin lifted defiantly, which in Samuel's vision was his favorite daring pose. She didn't care if after returning from Australia, she would be fired. Samuel laughed instead of replying the cynical tone from Evelyn, this was what Samuel liked about the woman in front of him, the brave woman who didn't submit to him.
"Ha ha ha!"
"Why are you laughing?" Evelyn asked angrily.
She was very annoyed when her boss casually laughed at her. Samuel then approached her and grabbed her hand softly.
"Nothing....It's time. We should go to the boarding gate!" Samuel replied casually.
He dragged Evelyn who struggled to be let go.
"Let go of my hand, Sam!" Evelyn exclaimed.
"Finally you call me Sam again," Samuel replied and not granted Evelyn's request.
"Tsk .... let go of my hand!" Evelyn squealed and tried to escape, but unfortunately her strength was not comparable to Samuel's.
"Are you jealous?" Samuel asked confidently.
"What?"
"Yeah ... You're jealous and I know that,"
"You are crazy!"
"Thank you!"
"What?"
"Ha ha ha!"
