~Clint's POV
I've noticed one of our interns haven't reporting for a week now so I decided to asked Rosie
Rosie, is the other intern quit?— I asked
No, she filed sick leave— she said and I gave her a nod
Suddenly my phone rings
Clint!— a female voice
Geaneva—
Mom wanted to meet you— she replied that made me frown
Is there something wrong?— I asked
I don't know' she just want to see you— she said
When are you free?— she continue when she didn't hear any answer
Let me check my schedule, I'll get back to you— I said and ended the call
I just tighten my gripped on my phone when Rosie speaked that I completely forgot that she's still here.
She still haven't stopped pestering you?— Rosie
Aside from Leon, Leona, Ash and Liam, Rosie is the only person who could talk to me like that
She's my cousin, we are close, I treating her as my little sister and she's treating me as her older brother
My parents wanted to adopt her but she don't want, her parents we don't know where are they. After my uncle embezzled money from our company they left Rosie as a payment and they are willing to sell their daughter, disgusting parents.
Anyways, I looked at Rosie and just gave her a smile
What to do? Your brother is too hot and handsome— I said jokingly just for her not to worry too muc
Tsk! That's why you get in to trouble—She said and left my office.
Not long after Rosie left my office my phone rings
Hey'—
Cleo Iñigo Tennesy Ruiz!— Ash in a loud voice that made me push away my phone from my ear
What?— I asked in irritated voice
What? What? Omg don't tell me you forgot!— Ash
Sh*t— I just said then took my coat and hurriedly go out from my office
I completely forgot that we are having a lunch -3-
~~~
Wow Cleo so early— Liam teased that made me roll my eyes
Stop calling me Cleo— I said
Why not it's your name— Ash
How about I call you Adeline Sobelle Hyacinth, will you like it?— back to Ash that now giving me "stop I will kill you" look
Liam laughed and Ash went beside of Leon who's thoughts is out of nowhere.
I just shrugged, I know him, he will tell me once he's ready.
Our lunch was full of laugh tho we are all grown up adults as if our lives is not so complicated like the situation I am right now.
So Liam, when are you going to confess to Leona— Ash asked Liam that made me looked at him
What's going on?— I asked and they all looked at me as if I'm an alien
Cleo, are we really friends?— Liam asked with rolling eyes
I really don't get it what's going on
I only know you're pretending to be a gay for a position in Leon and Leona's salon business— I stated
Yes, so nice you knoe that— he said sarcastically
Can someone explain it to me— I said in irritation
Right! So Liam is in love with my sister Leona, but he's too coward to admit it so instead of confessing he pretends to be a gay and be closed to Leona— Leon said
What?— that's really svcks
Whatever— Liam with his gayness pretends that made Ash laughed
So what's your plan?— Ash
Leon help meeeee— Liam with his gayness again
But instead of Leon's answer or advice he get up and said he needs to go
Same with Ash that made Liam and I looked at each other and pretended that we don't know what are the two planning.
After the two left, Liam suddenly speak
I know you and Leona's marriage will be arranged— He started that made me look at him
That's why I cannot make a move now— he continue
Why not?— I asked, coz I don't see any wrong if he confessed to Leona
Leona and I are not in to each other, you wouldn't know if you have chance if you don't try— I said and get up to leave
But before I could go out from the door a server greeted me and giving me a paper
Sir Clint, Ms. Ash told us you will be paying today's lunch— she said
Seriously, this Ash.
So I don't have a choice and give my card to her, after that I went back to the office.
Ahh tomorrow is weekends again— I said to myself and start to do my work.
*Knock*
Sir Clint' I'm going now— Rosie
And I just nod at her, before I could get back to my work a hand snatched my pen
What do you think you're doing?— I asked Rosie
Stop overworking yourself! It's weekends, you should enjoy yourself and have some fun— she said with her angry face
I know she's just worried about me, but I just cannot not to overworked myself
Alright alright I'm going home now— I said
And she gave back my pen
I'm going to your house today, uncle and auntie Invited me— She said that made me frown
Did they say why?— I asked
What do you mean? They just simply asked me to visit them and have dinner with the three of you— Rosie said.
Alright— i replied and grab my things
Rosie and I walk out of my office together with my arm on her shoulder
When suddenly someone speak
Ahh Sir Clint and Ms. Rosie are you going home together?— the intern named William asked
Yes— Rosie simply replied without hesitations, which is a bit weird for me because she usually don't like other people see me this close to her
When she saw my reaction she just chuckles
Don't worry William and Elle knew that you're my cousin, so no worries.
She said then we walk to the elevator that's thr time she shake off my arm.
Dinner went well, my parents just wanted to see Rosie since she's living alone and once again my parents asked her to move in with us but she refused, so stubborn.
After that I sent her home
While on my way back home I received a message from Geaneva, asking for any updates.
I just completely ignored her and decided to off my phone and have a peacful rest day tomorrow.
