C13 His weakness

Ask for the moon 12

I settled down to start eating the delicious soup he cooked. I don't know what trip he's on, why soup? It's hot! but because of the taste of his cooking, I enjoyed it.

"Do you still want?" he asked.

I just worked hard on him and shook my head after two cups!

Since we ended our conversation with Mama and they stopped me from working, I haven't been able to do anything for only one month, so I'm going to resign immediately? Shame on Ms. Faith!

"Drink this," he said seriously.

He placed a glass of water on the side of my plate.

"Thanks," I thank you.

He just nodded, he was just watching me eat because he had already finished while I worked overtime.

I sighed "Aren't you going home yet?" I asked irritated.

Even if I wanted to say that he was here first because I didn't have anyone with me, I didn't say it. I don't want him to tell me to get my yes quickly.

He shook his head "You don't have anyone with you yet, it'll be later when one of your friends gets home," He replied calmly.

It was as if my insides rejoiced because of what he said.

I nodded and acted indifferent. We were silent, only my sipping on the soup made noise. Our attention was caught by the sudden ringing of his cell phone lying by his side so I looked at it.

Unknown Number was written so I raised an eyebrow when he didn't answer. I stopped reaching for the glass when I noticed that he suddenly swallowed.

"Why don't you answer?" I asked calmly before drinking.

He immediately shook his head and quickly took the cellphone and put it back in his pocket.

"I don't know," he answered seriously.

He looked away as if he also wanted to avoid what we were talking about.

"Why do you know your number if you don't know it?" I have a curious question.

"I don't know," he replied sparingly.

I just stayed quiet while drinking water. Suddenly his phone rang again.

"Answer it," I ordered.

Why does he not want to answer? That's important later!

He looked at me seriously before nodding.

"Excuse me," he said before standing up and turning away.

He sighed.

"Who the hell are you? Can you please stop bothering me? W-what? Alliah? Who? I don't care who you are just stop bothering me," he said irritatedly.

Before hanging up and frowning looking at the cellphone while facing me. Is that the girl from last night?

"Alliah, huh?" Not in my own words.

He ran his fingers through his hair and licked his lips slightly before sitting back down.

"I don't know him," he said softly.

"Okay," I replied sparingly.

"I don't know her," He repeated.

It seems that he is also not convinced by my answer, similar to the fact that I do not agree with his answer.

"Okay," I repeated.

I stood up to put my food in the sink but he immediately stopped me.

"It's me," he said.

Before my food was taken from me and he returned it.

"Thanks," I said seriously.

"Selene... I don't know Alliah," he insisted.

I turned to him who was already washing what I ate.

"It's okay, Elio," I repeated. "You shouldn't have washed that, I can," I blinked.

He was putting the cup, spoon and glass that he had washed back into the bag.

"It's fine," he wiped his hand.

I turned around and sat on the sofa. I turned on the TV because I felt that something might come out of my mouth.

"Selene..." he softly called me.

"Hmm?" I asked and turned to him.

He was standing next to me so I raised an eyebrow and motioned him to sit on the single sofa opposite me.

"I blinked his number," He explained.

"Why are you still explaining? Flirt if you want," I said irritated.

They will fight until they want! I'm not his girlfriend but why am I acting like this?! Why is it like I'm acting like his girlfriend?! Why do I feel like I'm jealous?!

I'm jealous!

"I just want it, Selene. I don't really know him," He promised softly.

"Okay,"

He just looked at me as if he was catching my gaze so I just struggled. He took a sip and took a sip.

"Could she be the girl last night? The one asking for your number? The sexy one clinging to your arm like a leech," I said annoyed.

He seemed to realize what I said because he became slightly quiet and looked away as if I had hit the target. So, Alliah is her name. Huh?

"So you gave me your number?" I will ask.

I avoided looking and turned my gaze to the TV.

"No," he replied firmly.

I blinked "What's that? Magic?"

"Sai gave it," he admitted and scratched the back of his neck.

I chuckled "Are you happy?" I asked sarcastically.

"No,"

Not ur face!

"Okay,"

He just smiled and turned to what I was watching. Sometimes I see his glance in my peripheral vision but I just ignore it.

I'm so bored of what I watch on TV because it's just nothing.

"Aren't you going home yet? It's going to be lunch. Angel is also going home," I promised.

"I'll be here until he's gone," he answered seriously.

"Don't you have somewhere else to go?" I asked and walked to the kitchen.

"Nothing," he replied.

I drank some water and turned to him.

"Where did you get the ingredients earlier?" I asked curiously.

His brow furrowed "There," he pointed to a small cabinet.

I pouted "There's something there,"

Anyway, Angel and Mawi probably put that aside so they wouldn't get confused. Where are the ingredients they will cook.

"Yes, this is your apartment but you didn't know?" He shook his head.

I just shook my head.

I went back to the sofa while he said goodbye to drink too.

"Girl! I saw Josh, 'Your ex has the thick face to approach me to ask where he's staying! They say you texted once but you didn't say anything! " Angel opened her mouth.

He sat next to me and put down the shopping. He didn't notice that Cyrus was here.

"Huh?" I suddenly asked nervously.

I looked at Cyrus to make sure he heard.

His eyes met mine, he looked at me seriously. He also wet his lips slightly with his tongue and put his hand in his pocket.

"C-Cyrus? Omyghad, sorry! I didn't know!" Angel apologized nervously.

"No, Its okay, Im just courting, Yoreh. " He said seriously.

Why earlier Selene? Why now just Yoreh? But why does it seem like a big deal to me?

He walked seriously. While Angel suddenly stood up.

"I-I'll just put it," he promised and motioned to the kitchen.

"Okay,"

I looked at Cyrus who was seriously walking.

"You're going home?" I suddenly stood up.

Will he go home soon? Is Angel already here? Where will he go after this? Is that Alliah's? Shall I let Angel go first? Ah, what the hell.

"Yes," he answered coldly.

He ran his fingers through his hair again and stopped in front of me.

"Josh, huh?" He seriously promised.

I heard Angel's taste and shook my head.

I raised my palms and shook my head "I didn't tell him,"

It's true that Josh texted me but I only replied once and the next time I replied he stopped me.

"Okay," he replied coldly. "I'm going home," he said goodbye seriously.

Before he could walk away from me again, I grabbed his arm to stop him from leaving.

He raised his eyebrows.

He sighed.

"Why?" He asked gently.

He even looked at my hand that was clinging to his slender arm that I still didn't remove.

I pouted "Where are you going? Are you really going home or are you going somewhere else?"

We were very close to each other because I was still holding his arm. I felt like anytime my world will stop!

"Didn't you want to send me away earlier? Then I'll go home with you," he answered seriously and motioned to Angel.

I just tightened my grip on him. Am I going crazy? Why am I doing this? Why am I like a child who is afraid of being left behind? So I immediately let him go.

"Just text your ex mate," He said coldly and walked away.

Is he jealous? damn you, Cyrus Elio!

I also slide my fingers through my hair.

"Alright, go home and call mate when your Alliah," I returned to him.

I also turned around to approach Angel who was looking at me with his mouth agape. I felt that he wanted to ask something but remained silent.

"What?"

I looked at him walking back to me. That's right, come back to me. Just mine.

I looked up "When am I going to leave?"

He sighed "How can I leave if you're like that?"

"What's that?" I asked irritated.

I opened Angel's purchases one by one.

"Are you mad at me?" He asked pleadingly.

"What are you talking about? Leave if you want. It looks like you're just playing with me. Get out of there with that sexier and more beautiful woman. Don't you want it? You can call Alliah," he said without saying I.

I looked at him annoyed. He turned his gaze to Angel who was watching us.

"See how my baby turns the table?" He asked Angel who laughed slightly and nodded.

"Baby your face," I said annoyed.

"I should be the one sulking because you texted your ex. But why are you the one who's angry?" He promised softly.

He stepped closer to me. He was staring at me because I was looking at my peripheral vision. I didn't pay attention to him because I was irritated. I'm irritated with myself because why am I doing this?!

My thoughts suddenly turned around because I felt his arm wrapping around my waist from behind me. I feel like my heart will explode with just one move because of the great pity I feel.

He rested his chin on my shoulder. I bit my lip and looked at Angel who was watching us with her lips parted.

"Yes, you're the winner...Yes, I'm not allowed to have other women...Yes, other men can be with you even if I don't want to...Yes, it's a game...Yes, I'm losing, " he softly whispered to me.

I was suddenly stunned because of what he said. I couldn't even breathe. I immediately felt my face heating up.

Can someone please help me? Because I felt like I was going to drown.
