It had been two days and Harmony haven"t seen Drake. She couldn"t help but wonder why the man was not there. She was thinking that the man might have a problem.
It was not impossible because of how his family was treating him. Recently, the man was acting strange.
More often than not, she could see Drake was staring at nowhere as if he was thinking so deep. She never asked but that"s one of their rules in their contractual relationship.
Though she must admit that she and Drake had been much closer than when they first met.
She let out a deep sigh as she took a sip of her chamomile tea. For some reasons, she was unable to sleep, and her mind was filled with thought about Drake.
Harmony didn"t want to think that she was missing the man because that couldn"t be. Two days was not long enough for her to feel this way. And who was even Drake in her life to feel that way?
She shook her head as she was scolding herself.
She had to remind herself that what was between her, and Drake was purely business and nothing all, so she better get herself together.Harmony was about to get inside her bedroom when suddenly she heard a car engine stopped in front of their house.
She looked at the clock.
It was almost nine in the evening. Were her parents expecting someone?
Harmony walked in the window"s direction so she could check who just arrived.
And she almost fell on the floor when she saw that it was Drake.
Her heartbeat so fast and she couldn"t understand why all of a sudden, excitement was all over her She tried to fix herself before she opened the door for the man. She didn"t want to look like she was excited to see him even if that was what she was feeling inside.
A couple of knocks was heard from the door so she quickly went there and opened it so her parents wouldn"t wake up with the noise.
"Good even---"
"What are you doing here?" Harmony cut Drake in the middle of his greeting.
His eyebrows knitted while looking at her. He was shocked because of what she said and the way that she acted as soon as she saw him at the front of their house."Wow, is that the way that you will greet me? That"s so sweet, my dear girlfriend," he said and then he opened the door widely so he could get inside even if Harmony was not inviting him at all.
"Hey, I am asking you. It"s already late. What are you going here? Is there something wrong? What happened?" This time Harmony couldn"t hide the worry that she felt for the man.
She was sure that the man wouldn"t go at their place in this hour if nothing had happened to him and his family.
"I am okay, don"t worry," he said and then he sat down."Would you like to have a cup of coffee?" She asked while looking at him intently. He didn"t look like he was hurt so what was his purpose going at their house that late?
"Yes, please. Actually, Harmony, I haven"t had dinner yet," he said and then she hurt his stomach growling.
She couldn"t help but smile as she shook her head. Though she was feeling worried about the man.
"What happened? Did you have fight with your family?" She said as she couldn"t held herself from asking him. Worry was all over her face especially when she learned that the man hadn"t eaten yet.
She couldn"t help what happened to him for the past two days that he didn"t visit her?
He shook his head. "I just didn"t wait for the dinner and went here as soon as I woke up earlier," he said.
Though she was not convinced. She just shut her mouth.
"Okay, let me just check what we have in the fridge," she said and then she walked inside the kitchen.
She didn"t know that she should be thinking. She wanted to ask more questions, but she chose to be silent, and she would just let Drake to open up to her. She wouldn"t be mistaken that something was going on.
It was the first time that she had seen Drake in that kind of face. He looked like the weight of the whole world was on his shoulders.
Harmony was thinking that probably, he had a fight with his Aunty Carmela or to his dad. Probably, they were putting pressure again to the man in taking over the company, but they would still be the one that should be followed. It was not hidden from her that Drake wanted to run the company on his own way which was refused by his dad and his Aunty Carmela. Simple because, they believe that the modern approach of Drake wouldn"t work with the company that they had.
Drake followed her in the kitchen.She had almost bumped to him. Their bodies were few inches away from each other.
Harmony felt like the time stop and the only thing that she could see was the handsome face of Drake Villarama.
The only sound that she could hear was the beating of their hearts. She felt like the world stopped for the two of them.
She was oblivious of their surroundings. She thought that the TV series were overreacting when they describe this kind of scene in their episodes but she literally experiencing like her whole world stopped for a while because of Drake .Harmony was just staring at his face, and she was wondering if she was just inside a dream. If she was then she didn"t want to wake up.
She could see that Drake"s face was getting closer to hers. Her heartbeat doubled even more because of she was thinking that was going to happen.
Harmony slowly closed her eyes as their faces were almost close to each other.
