Chapter 9

The car finally came to an halt,I remained silent for the whole drive and my racing heartbeat still didn't calm down. "We are here,"he said ,turning towards the right he looks at me . "Will she believe us, because you're not my type at all," he almost speaks to himself dramatically ignoring my glare. Seriously, this person is someone who has to be in an asylum,as if I asked him to be my boyfriend,he was the one who asked me to do it and now he is complaining. "Alright Mr Han,then I'll leave,"I scoff as I remove my seatbelt. "My bad, I just wanted to tell you that you are completely my type Ms Anna," he leans towards his right when I gaze at him "That is why I want you to be my girl," his tone doesn't seem like he is joking and those eyes which looks at me shows something different and my name sounds different in his tongue because it makes me feel something. "Idiot," looking away from him I open the door to get down. "Ms Anna," pausing my action I turn towards my left furrowing my eyebrows. Click, the camera shot a selfie of us.. "What are you doing?,"I roar scooting away from my seat to grab the phone from his hand. "Checking how we look together,"he says with a smile hiding the phone behind his back"Don't worry you look good in it," he says leaning forward moving his face close to mine ,I move away and settle down on my seat immediately before our eyes contacted. "Okay..lets take another pick," he raises his phone high to take a click "Smile Ms Anna,". Smiling at the phone I look at him, his eyes fixed on me in the photo. Turning around towards me he leans closer his left hand still raised up holding the phone , moving his right hand away from the steering wheel he brings it closer to my face. My heart rises as I look at him ,he gently holds the bridge of my glasses and removes it away from my face. I blink not realising that I was almost gawking at him. "Now ,"he says , turning around to pose for the photo. I smile at the camera and look away immediately trying to calm myself down the tinglings his touch gave me is something else. "Woah...We look perfect together,"he comments looking at his phone screen zooming us without the background. He brings the phone to my view "but you look red ," he comments as the ends of his lips twitches up. Is he trying to embarrass me Without replying I get out of the car slamming the door shut, he follows me when I walk away. Mr Han somehow manages to match my pace as I was walking quickly keeping large steps in frustration. He walks beside me to the restaurant,my body stiffens when his hand makes its way around my waist. I stare up at him with a frown ,his gaze on me "Will be looking more like a couple,"he explains shrugging his shoulders but I just remained silent glaring at him. "Oh okay,"he mumbles , taking his hands away from my waist ,he slowly slides his hand down and holds my palm into his,my palm burried into his warm large one. "Holding hands is fine I guess,"he blurts rubbing the back of his neck, looking straight ignoring my gaze but I still looked at him. Dylan says that I look scary when I glare ,maybe its true. "Alright,"he sighs and walks forward and I follow him behind into the restaurant. The restaurant is infront of a lake,its half past seven now,the lights and the arrangements of the lampshades looks splendid in the the night. It's completely glass tinted as the view outside can be enjoyed while staying inside,the tables are covered with white table cloth and a red layer between ,everything here is something perfect for a date night ,but here I'm with a person to put up a show. We climb upstairs to the second floor ,I follow him as I have no idea where to go, looking around, the interior made me to to look in awe. "I arrived mom,"he says as soon as he answers his phone. We waited till the girl arrive,Mr Han and I are sitting next to eachother ,he is going through the menu while I'm just viewing the lake through the glass. It's almost eight ,the waiter brought the food as well but she didn't arrive yet. "It should be perfect okay," this is almost the fifth time that he is telling me to be like she won't have a doubt about us ,I just remained silent by giving him a hum in reply and now the awkward silence takes its place. "Hey," I look away from the view to meet the person we were waiting for. Damn... who would tell don't for a girl like her..I remember Charlotte because even she is someone who looks like a model to be specific. She has worn a red pleated frock which lands right above her knee,the asymmetric neck showing off her swan neck,her blonde hair flowing over her bare shoulder. She sits opposite to Mr Han looking at him with a smile. "Han how are you? long time no see,"she says her voice comes out so soothingly. "Good," he replies looking at her with a smile. Won't he ask her how's she doing, doesn't he know how to move on with people but seems like both are doing fine,he doesn't look like he wants to send her away. "She is," she asks , passing me a smile and I smile in reply. "My ...," "His assistant," I blurt interrupting him but trust me that came out unexpectedly. I mentally face palmed myself for what I did and I'm sure that he is in rage because he looks at me questionably his eyebrows raised trying to get an answer from me. Anna can't you keep your mouth shut why did you do this... urgh... seriously I just ruined at the beginning itself. "What is she doing here?,"she ask him curiously her tone showing that she is vexed for sure. Raising an eyebrow Mr Han looks at me gesturing me to answer with and I know that he is doing it purposely for what I did earlier. "Umm..just came across suddenly," I reply fiddling with my fingers. "He is having a date with me and don't you think it's ill mannered to be here," she says her voice calm still dropping anger. That was really rude and I just didn't expect for a face like that she would be soo mean,I know how it feels for the situation here as his assistant being here for a date and I'm a girl but how can she just say that. "I umm I'll leave you'll alone," I reply calmly , grabbing my bag I was about to get up from my seat but I didn't when Mr Han held my arm hinting me to stay. "Lets dig in," he says, grabbing the fork and knife. Okay this is awkward it's completely awkward and embarrassing I just need to leave and learn to keep my stupid mouth shut. "Eat," he whispers to me , placing mybag back I pick up the cutlery. "Why were you late?,"Mr Han asks by taking a bite of his steak. "Caught up with some work,"she answers taking a sip of the orange juice. Everything seems fine between them,he speaks to her casually like they've known eachother for a long time and I'm staying here cutting the steak thinking its him I insisted on doing this but I was forced but now I'm just an ant. She goes on talking to him about her family, her dad and her work ,she asks Mr Han some questions and he answers her. Everything is going fine here except for me being in this situation in a place where I shouldn't. This is why he took me to shopping,to sit here and chew the steak watching them chat. "This is not the first time Han,mom is trying to push both of us and I've already told you I'm okay with it," This part of their conversation totally got my attention , chewing the meat softly my ears were working on them. "I know,but I've already told you the first time we met,"Mr Han speaks dryly. "Don't you even have a little part of me in your heart, didn't you have even feel anything about me every time we met,and today is our fifth date Han but you keep telling the same thing again," he places the cutlery on the table and looks at her " I'm telling you Han, I've liked you since the time I saw you 3 years ago, stop doing this you always keep quiet when I talk about this," "I've explained to you," he utters his voice not showing any emotion. Pushing my plate aside I pull forward the dessert ,the mousse looks soo good and my eyes has been on it for a long time, as I'm invincible here now I can just eat this up as both are just chatting leaving the meat half. "Han listen I won't tell no to your mom as you asked me to, I won't lie about my feelings for you," The mousse melts in my mouth hitting my taste buds taking me to another planet. My audio is kinda fading away ,I could hear them but I didn't pay any attention as my mind was focused on what I was eating and biting. "How long are you going to wait for her?You have no idea where she is? She left you Han do you think that she will show up out of nowhere," "Lara....," "I just hate this,you are making things complicated,just move on your mom is sick about you and yet you care to wait and look for her,you ......," "I love her," That was stern,cold and loud enough to hit my eardrums,the spoon in my hand automatically dropped down which created a noise in the silent between them. "Bitc....,"before she could complete her curse by body stiffened. My body became numb not realising what's going on everything went blank and I am trying to figure out what is happening right now.Mr Han moved forward abruptly his lips crashing on mine,he moves his hand behind my neck holding me on place but I just sat there my eyes wide open not knowing how to react.
