Dangerous Romance - Season 1 - Episode 8

I went back inside the restaurant and noticed it was evening, and the sun would set any minute now. With few people in the restaurant, I made my way to the kitchen, there I met Randee and Jimmy talking.
“hey where have you been” Randee suddenly asked immediately she noticed me.
“in the storage room” I said and she nods and continued to talk to Jimmy. Why did she even ask me.

“so it’s looks like we’re almost done for the day” I said and Randee looks at me and nodded
“and Maxwell said, not to touch anything, that you just have to rest” Randee said and I nod and walked out of the kitchen, oh Maxwell,
I went to sit on a table at the corner of the restaurant staring out side the window, when Maxwell suddenly sat down opposite me.
“gee.. Where have you been?” he asks
“I was asleep.. In the storage room” I said honestly and he nods and looks away slowly before turning back at me.
“so I heard about you and Richard” he said and I sighed and la!d my head on the table.. Not again.

“hey look don’t be offended by me bringing it up but I heard from Randee” he added and I just stare at him plainly.
“don’t take it out on Randee, I was the one who actually forced her to tell me.. But as a concerned assistant manager, I say you take a day off tomorrow” Maxwell said and I smiled a bit.

“for a manger, you sure stink. Boris wouldn’t even give me a second of work and yet you’re giving me another day off because of Richard.” I seethed.
“that’s because I’m not Boris, he’s one serious boss, and I care about every single employee working here, especially Jimmy, that kid is going through a lot” Maxwell stated.
“look I’m trying to get over Richard, no I’m not trying, I’m getting over Richard and I don’t need a day off because of him” I deadpanned and Maxwell smiled.
“I never knew you were so brave” Maxwell said dramatically and ruffled my hair making me smile a bit.. “I wasn’t until ‘he’ happened” I tell Maxwell and he sighed.
“well keep being strong and don’t get angry, cause your angry side is so out of your innocent and nice league” Max said and stood up, before walking away.

Everyone is telling me to cheer up and forget about Richard, but somehow I don’t want to forget about him cause he was actually the best thing that happened to me. I feel so lost. I don’t even know what to do with my life anymore . I sighed and turned to see Leo sitting in front of me. How the hell did he sit here that I didn’t notice

.
He tapped the table with his fingers and pursed his lips together making it protrude, I looked away and stayed silent like no one’s in front of me. And he stayed quiet too.
My phone vibrated and I brought it out from my pocket and grunt when I saw the broken screen. It was a text message from Kirana but I couldn’t see it clearly because of the cracks and I called her.
“hey?” she suddenly said when she picked up
“hey Kira” I said lowly and my voice surprisingly came out low and shaky making me sound awful.
“are you Okay?” Kirana asked
“yeah, I’m fine.. What is it. I um saw your text message but I actually couldn’t read it, my phone..the screen got broken” I said slowly cause I know Leo was looking at me again and I just don’t want to turn that way.
“your phone got broken? Too bad, anyway I said I’m free tomorrow, work is cancelled for some reason which I’m going to tell you tomorrow when I come meet him at work” Kirana said and I smiled
“you’re coming here?” I asked again to be sure
“yeah duh, I just said that.” Kirana breathed from the other side of the line making me giggle a little.
“but I thought you’re on the lookout for Maxwell” I said
“oh shut up” Kira tells me making me smile. Leo suddenly cleared his throat making me glance at him.. Kirana heard it and asked.
“who was that?” she asked
“no-one” I lied .. “look I gotta go, see you tomorrow” I quickly said and hung up. I was putting my phone back in my pocket when it slipped from my hand and fell to the ground, AGAIN!!
“d--n it!!” I yelled and picked it up, angrily I placed it on the table and huffed heavily. I breathed in and out slowly making my anger lessened. Leo stared at me and I stared back at him. Looking at him now, he doesn’t scare me again like before..
“do you want to say something?” I asked
“like what?” he returned the question and I kept quiet and looked away, few hours ago I was feeling guilty for yelling at him when he just wants to be “friends” with me.. But now he just sounded like a jerk ...

I stared at my phone wishing it would just magically turn back to the new phone I bought, I mean Richard bought three months ago. I don’t think I’m ready to save up to buy another one.
“you know, the reason why I suddenly approached you was because I wanted to apologize for what I did when I first met you, and you talk and act like someone I know.. I’m sorry if I annoyed you or something” Leo said making me look at him.
Great. He apologized now I’m feeling bad about myself.
“n-no actually.. It’s okay… I’m the one who’s supposed to apologize to you.. I got mad about something else and let it out all you… So I’m sorry” I said honestly and he smiled. Okay admits. He looks cute with his dimpled smile.
“so friends?” he asked.
This guy is unbelievable, I can’t believe he still wants to be friends with me, even when his friends said not to.

“I’m sorry… no,” I said gently and looked away, “why?” he asked..
Seriously?.

I sighed still facing the exit of the restaurant,
“i-i don’t m——
