Fuck.
I did nothing but agree. When I saw the sadness and willingness to help in her eyes, I don't know but I automatically gave up.
This is not good. This is bad. She's becoming my weakness. And the fact that she's just my secretary and nothing more.
After I dropped Angel in front of her apartment, I immediately started the car away. I needed to think.
When I got home, I immediately head to my bar here in this mansion. This whole fucking empty mansion. The mansion that's full of good and bad memories. Fuck life.
I was on my third glass of whiskey when I heard the voices of the three idiots.
"Nate, how's your secretary?" Zach asked as he occupies the high chair beside me.
"She's okay. Gladly the wound isn't deep." I answered in a low voice.
~flashback
We're in the hideout when I received a call that there's this man who wanted to talk to me. He's already causing trouble in my company.
So, I decided to go to my company and talk to this fucktard.
The three idiots decided to accompany me, and I willingly obliged.
Zach's the one who's driving while Leon is the one who's sitting in the shotgun seat and Diego's here beside me at the back seat.
About 15 minutes have passed when I suddenly received a call from the front desk.
[Sir! Your secretary has been held as a hostage!]
What? Angel!
"Fuck." I ended the call in trembling hands.
"Drive fast, Zach. Angel is in danger."
They both turned around and said, "What?!" well, they also said in unison.
I massaged my temples, God.
I told them that Angel has been held as a hostage of that fucking ass. Shit. I swear if anything bad happens with Angel, I will kill him.
When we arrived we quickly got off. Zach parked in front and did not proceed to the parking lot. This is an urgent matter. And this is my company! Fuck them!
Seeing the situation, my hand immediately itched to strangle the man.
"Zach, Leon, and Diego. Go right behind that man. While I'm negotiating with him. Watch his move, and when you see a chance, attack him." I ordered them.
When an employee saw me at the entrance he screamed, "Mr. Wren is here!" and automatically, the crowd parted. Suddenly, I feel like Moses but I immediately erased that thought.
I calmly walked closer to them.
I saw the three idiots in position.
When I already settled the agreement and he pulled away the knife on Angel's neck, Zach pulled the man's arm and twisted it in his back. While Diego grabbed the knife in the man's hand. While Leon, he's just standing there. Asshole.
And the rest was history...
"Boss? Nathan? Nate? Mr. Wren? Yahoo?!!!" Leon said and waved his hand in front of my face.
Annoyed, I took it away and emptied my glass.
"What are you doing here? Tss, I don't need you. Go away," I hissed.
"What's the matter, Nate?" Zach asked not minding what I said, "You look bothered," he pointed out.
"Well, I am," I whispered.
They immediately became serious. They are an idiot, but they know how to be serious in such situation.
I looked at them, I don't have a choice it'll drive me crazy if I didn't tell anyone about this. So, I sighed and muttered her name, "Angel ...."
"It's bad. Really really bad." I added.
"Why, what happened?" Leon asked in confusion.
"I think, I'm starting to like her... No. I like her, and it's bad... Because ... I don't know, I think... my feelings are going deeper and deeper... Damn. "
They sighed at the same time.
"That's bad ..." Diego said.
"She's becoming my weakness. I hate it. She's just my secretary! Nothing special! She's not even my girlfriend! She's just my secretary! But why does... fuck!" I throw my glass in the wall in frustration.
"Nothing special? Eh, you're the reason why she's your secretary now," Leon hissed.
I suddenly remembered the moment I laid my eyes on her. She is the epitome of beauty. You'll be captivated by her eyes that's full of innocence and her smile that can drive you crazy. At that moment, I am on pins and needles, I badly needed to know her name! That's why I told Leon to look for her.
"You also asked me to look after her. Nothing special, huh?" Zach mocked at me.
"Can't you just date, Nate? Then get married... so you don't go crazy there." Diego suggested.
"Do you think it's that easy?" I said.
"Yeah, no. But, that way Nate, you can protect her better. You can't be bothered and say, 'She's just my secretary, nothing special' anymore," he said, "'So you won't be single forever," he added and tapped my shoulder as he walked away.
"Fuck you!" I uttered.
"I agree," Leon said and tapped my shoulder as well and followed Diego outside.
"I second the notion," Zach and walked away.
"Fucktards!!" I shouted and even I can't see them, I can hear them laughs.
I hissed and shook my head to erase those dumbass so-called advice. Assholes.
I also thought about what they said. And I guess, I'm doing this fucking courting thingy.
Fuck! I don't even know how to court!!!
So, I searched on the internet.
Many came out but I clicked the first one.
How to court a woman
1. Make her smile.
But, she's always smiling!!
2. Sing her a song.
Damn. Serenade? I can sing but, fuck! fuck! Assholes! why am I listening to them? But I'm already here, I'm already searching, might as well continue this shit. I sighed with my thought.
3. Take her out on a date.
This is easy!! But, shit. How can I ask her?
4. Give her a letter.
"Fuck. This shit is a whole joke!" I said and closed my laptop and I lie in my bed.
I'm trying to get some sleep. But, "Fuck!" annoyed, I opened the laptop again and the fifth step popped up.
5. Give her chocolates.
6. Give her flowers.
7. Treat her special.
8. Take care of her.
9. Comfort her when she's sad.
10. Always be there for her.
"Tsk. Nonsense!" I said after I finished reading all those shitty steps on how to court bla bla bla.
I laughed and shook my head at what I was doing. Shit, you've gone mad, Nate.
Not long after that, I already dozed off to sleep.
