Chapter 15: Coffee and Kisses


    Madi''s POV:


    I continued to watch the two types of scenes in front of me. The first one is the continuation of eww-kiss


    from the slim woman and from the man whose face I can''t see until now because he''s really busy


    eating... I mean kissing the woman''s face.


    And the other one is the furious Mr Wilsons who also continued watching the painful scene in front of


    him. Is he really that stupid to continue watching them? I''m sure that if there would be a parade of fools


    and martyrs right at the moment, I''m going to choose him to be their president and leader.


    Or if I can only build a statue for someone like him for being a stupid and dumbest person, I swear I''m


    not going to waste any second.


    Do you get my point? You know, he''s in pain. He knows he''s still in pain, but why does he have to stay


    and watch them? My holy God!


    I took a deep breath before going to where my stupid boss was. Well, we''re not in the office, so God


    help me, I will cut what they call ''formality'' and ''professionalism''.


    I stood next to him, but since he was focus on the two, he didn''t notice me.


    "Ohh.. so she''s the girl. What''s her name?" I asked, not looking at him but at the two who can''t tear


    their lips away from each other.


    He looked at me. I swear I looked like a dwarf from his towering height. He took off his sunsses and


    my breath hitched at the sight of his mesmerizing brown eyes.


    -''God! I''ve always seen his eyes every day, but why is it different right now?''-


    I mentally pped my forehead from being distracted by his freaking eyes.


    He scrunched his eyebrows and checked me from head to down while his mouth formed an ''O'' shape.


    -''Yeah, I know I''m sexy and beautiful.''- I need to bite my inner cheeks to control my ''Madi'' smile.


    "Hi, Sir." I greeted him with a wide smile and his eyes widened in which I don''t know if in surprise or


    whatever.


    Oops! Did I sound like a slut? Okay... repeat.


    "Good morning Mr Wilsons." I smiled again.


    "Madi?"


    My smile dropped from the way he mentioned my name.


    Holy shit! Why did it sound so sexy when he mentions my name?


    "Whoa! Can I also call you, Gabriel? We''re not in the office."


    -''I wish I could close his mouth with my lips... oh shit! Stop it, Madielyn!''-


    "What are you doing here?" we looked at each other as we asked in unison.


    "Just looking around."


    "Hanging out with my friends."


    We answered again in unison. But my eyebrow raised at his answer. ''Just looking around''.


    "Hmm... looking around?" I looked at him through myshes. "Or looking for someone... I mean,


    looking at someone?"


    His head snapped at me with his serious-looking eyes.


    "It''s none of your business!" he said through gritted teeth.


    I admit I wasn''t expecting that reaction from him. But take note... I am Madi and I never back away


    easily.


    "I see, it''s none of my business." I arched an eyebrow. I noticed a mug of coffee on his hand. And I


    don''t know what came into me.


    Before I could think of anything, I snatched it out of his grip and walked over to the two love-fucking-


    birds who were now pulling their lips away from each other.


    I heard him call my name, but I continued to walk. When I was only a few steps away from the skinny


    girl---wait---- his ex-fiancee, I purposely tripped my right foot over the basket that was on the floor.


    Then it''s bingo! My coffee, I mean Mr Wilsons'' coffee flew over ''including the mug'' onto the skinny


    woman''s dress.


    "What the fuck!" she screamed as she narrowed her eyes on me.


    "Ohh... I''m sorry." I said, faking my apology. I swear if looks can kill, you can find me six feet under the


    ground right now.


    "Baby!" the man beside her instantly wiped her dress with his handkerchief.


    -''Baby? Seriously? Yucks... so corny!''- I shook my head. -''My God, I''m sorry for what I''ve done. I swear


    I don''t know what happened to me-----''


    But my silent prayer was cut off by the man''s voice.


    "Look what you did to my girlfriend!" he shouted as if he''s going to punch me.


    "I said I''m sorry. I-I didn''t notice the basket on the floor."


    Oh gosh... I''m sorry poor basket.


    "Sorry? You ruined my dress, idiot!" the slim woman screamed again.


    -''What the----''


    "She already apologized, what else do you want to hear, Stacey?" a shiver ran through my spine from


    the cold, familiar voiceing from behind me. And a strong muscr arm pulled me on his waist as


    he looked straight into the woman''s eyes.


    -''Stacey''- My mind repeated her name.


    "Gabriel!" She seemed shocked to see him in front of her.


    "Stacey." Mr Wilsons cold voice.


    "You know her?" her eyes suddenly turned to me and his hand on my waist.


    "Yes. She''s my girlfriend."


    My mouth dried instantly after hearing his words. And the realization hit me. I indirectly epted his


    deal.


    "Your girlfriend?" she asked with a snicker. As if she couldn''t believe I''m his girlfriend. Well, yeah, I''m


    not his real girlfriend, but the look on her face shows bitterness--- not what you expect from a woman


    kissing her new boyfriend.


    "Yes, you heard it right? This is Madi, my girlfriend and soon to be my wife for a few weeks from now."


    I looked at him in surprise.

    -''A few weeks from now?''-


    "Love, meet Stacey.. a friend from the past. And her boyfriend Ray."


    -''Did he just called me ''love''?''-


    My eyes turned as wide as a saucer.


    "Why did she seem so surprised that you called her love?" Asked the man whose name was Ray with a


    smirk. And Mr Wilsons looked at me with a determined look in his eyes.


    I sighed loudly before I decided to y along with his act.


    I smiled at him sweetly before I looked back to the two.


    "You know why, I seemed so surprised? It''s not because he called me love, but because, I remembered


    he told me once, how much he cherished a woman whose name was the same as yours but chose to


    betray him." I smiled as I saw their face dropped.


    "And you know what, if I ever I meet that woman, I''ll thank her for giving me this kind of opportunity to


    be loved by him." I looked into Gabriel''s eyes and caressed his face. I smiled before saying my final


    words. "I love you... love."


    My heart beats faster after saying those words. But the next thing he did was really out of my life''s


    imagination...


    He kissed me!


    He freaking kissed me.


    My knees buckled, but he held me on my lower back to support my weight.. while his other hand on the


    back of my neck.


    "I love you, too." He said smiling like an idiot after letting me go. He even kissed me on the lips and


    then my forehead.


    Forgodsake! He stole my first kiss!


    I felt my heart pounding as it came from racingpetition. If we''re not facing these two faked people,


    I''m gonna smack his face.


    "Is she really your girlfriend, Gabriel?" Stacey asked in disbelief.


    "Why? You can''t believe that I can move on from what you did?" Gabriel''s voiceced with venom as


    he looked directly into her eyes.


    I never missed Stacey and Ray''s shocked and horrified look.


    "Nice seeing you again, Stacey... Ray?" he said bitterly before guiding me out of the boutique.


    I still couldn''t find a word after what happened. I was still in a daze until he pulled me to an area with


    fewer people walking by.


    I pulled my hand out of his, but he just tightened his grip.


    "Why did you do that?" I asked, raising my voice.


    "Do what?" he acted innocently.


    "Why did you kiss me?"


    -''You stole my first kiss!''- I wanted to add, but I know it will only boost his ego, so I pushed it to the


    innermost level of my brain.


    "Because you finally epted my deal," he said smiling.


    Why is he smiling? I don''t need his smile right now! Is he bipr?


    "I didn''t remember agreeing or saying yes to any of your agreements, Mr Wilsons!"


    "Ohh, yes you did, love."


    "Don''t call me that!" I red at him.


    "But why? You yed along with my act, so that means you already agree."


    "Okay, I yed with your act, but why did you kiss me? Why did you have to kiss me?"


    "Because you said I love you."


    My eyes face turned sour as I can''t believe his way of thinking.


    "But you know I was just acting earlier !"


    "Yes, and I also acted my part!"


    "By kissing me?"


    How I wish I could just vanish the smirk on his face---argh!


    "It''s just a kiss. And it''s your fault, you tempted me," he said with a shrug.


    "Did I what? Tempted you?" goosebumps started creeping up the back of my nape.


    "You looked me in the eye, you touched my face, you said you loved me and then you smiled as if


    asking me to kiss you."


    "Ohh! For goodness sake! This is ridiculous!"


    I can no longer stand in front of him. I decided to go out to look for the girls, but he immediately


    grabbed my hand.


    "We''ll talk about thister, Madi."


    "What are you talking about? I already acted once for you!"


    "Yeah, and it''s not over yet. I''ll pick you up tonight at 7:00 pm."


    "No! No way!" I said taking my hand but he tightened again his hold.


    "Ohh.. love, you already forgot, I don''t take no for an answer."


    "Argh!" I really wanted to scratch his face, if only I could.


    "Tonight at seven pm."


    "I''ll wait for your driver."


    "No. I said I''lle to get you and not my driver. Get ready for then."


    I can''t help butugh.


    "Excuse me, Gabriel. Did you also forget that we''re not in the office? So you can''t order or boss me


    around." I smirked at his shocked face.


    "Then let''s see. If you''re not ready by seven, I''ll forcefully open your door and sleep in your house. How


    about that, love?"


    "Argh! Asshole!" I pulled my hand with a force and walked away from him for the second time.


    I still hear his voice and hisughs In my head, even though I was already inside the mall''s restroom.


    -''Now I''m starting to hate him, but more to myself. What am I thinking when I grabbed his coffee? It


    started with that freaking coffee and that slim woman-Stacey and not to mention, her arrogant


    boyfriend''-


    Gosh! What came into her mind for choosing that not-so-handsome-frog over Gabriel? Hello, he can


    never beat Gabriel with his square face! Gabriel has a perfectly sculpted nose, mesmerizing brown


    eyes, a cute dimple, perfect thick eyebrows andshes and of course, his soft pink lips.


    My hands automatically raised to my lips as I remembered how my first kiss happened.


    "Shit!
