Chapter 3 - Anxious

"Hey! Are you sick? Or is there something bothering you? You look anxious. Did something happened in Boracay?", Belle, Shy's best friend and an officemate asked worrying about her.

"It's nothing.", Shy sighed.  "It's just that, you know I don't like being indebted to anyone and there's this guy, I don't know him, but his name is Keevan I guess? And----", Belle cut her off.

"Wait! Wait! Wait!" "Easy okay? Inhaaaaale.... Exhaaaale... Inhaaaale.... (Shy followed Belle doing the Inhale-Exhale exercise)

"Now tell me slowly what happened."

"Well, to cut the story short, a clumsy guy accidentally bumped my chair and I accidentally tipped over my cup of coffee on my laptop. So maybe he was very sorry for what happened because I was shocked with what happened and I guess I shouted him? So decided to pay my bill at the hotel without letting me know and left leaving a note at the front desk that he was sorry."

"And where's the note?"

Shy took the note from her wallet and gave it to Belle. "Here"

Sorry for what happened yesterday. - Keevan. "Keevan?, Handsome name and very masculine. Is he handsome?", Belle smiled teasingly to Shy.

"I don't know! I didn't really paid attention to his looks and his body when it happened because I was very furious with what happened to my laptop. What I remember is his eyes, he has an almond-shape eyes and when I looked at him, I can feel that he was really sorry. I just didn't have much time then because I was in a hurry to dry off my laptop, all my reports were there, you know."

"Yeah! I get it! Career over boys, right?" Belle said while laughing. "But anyway, what are you planning to do now? Can't you just be grateful to him and forget everything to compensate what he did to your laptop?"

"I don't know! I've been trying to forget everything anyway but, there's this kind of feeling inside me, wanting to find him, I don't know! Urghhh! I don't even know if I have to be grateful to him now with what he's doing to me. It's like my conscience is eating me!"

"Your conscience? Or your pride?"

Pride.
