CHAPTER III

CHAPTER III

The next morning I woke up having a massive headache. It's just so painful! Hangover is a shit. I covered my face using my pillow because I can feel the Sun's light on my face. But to my shock, my pillow smells different. It's not disgusting and it smells very manly. This pillow isn't mine. Definitely.

I removed the pillow that I used to cover my face. I slowly opened my eyes, trying to adjust my sight by the blinding light of the Sun. When I successfully opened them, I roamed around my sight. My eyebrows got almost knot together because this room was very unfamiliar! Where am I?

I tried standing up but I feel sore down there—wait! Why am I sore? Why is my private part sore? What the freak happened last night?

I sat on the bed and rested my head on the headboard. I closed my eyes tightly trying to remember what happened last night. The pain got worst as I try to remember it all.

I woke up last night because of a bad dream. I can't sleep that was why I drove going to an high-end club. I saw Dustin and Osmond drinking, I talked to them and we drank hard liqours. Then what? What happened next?

Did I had a one night stand with someone? This shit is killing me! What really happened?

I rubbed my head using my fingers. Then another memory flashed on my mind. It was me, kissing someone but I forgot if who was the guy.

My eyes were still shut when suddenly, the door of the room swang open. The moment I opened my eyes, I saw a pair of intimidating dark eyes. He looks like a greek god while walking towards me.

"You're finally awake. I've been waiting for you to wake up," he said as he neared me and sat on the bed. "How are you feeling? I bet you have a headache."

I glared at him, "What am I doing here, Avin? Why are we together?"

He tilted his head, as if he's thinking about something. "You forgot? You are hurting my ego, babe. You told me last night to be with you and to help you ease the pain."

"And you believed me?" I ridiculously asked.

"Why wouldn't I believe you, Steph? You look serious last nigh and I asked you if you were sure. You said yes."

"I was drunk and you took advantage! You, asshole!"

He sarcastically laughed, "It's my fault now? I ask you last night. I didn't forced you. This was what I mean when I ask you last night if you were really sure. Because me, I'm always sure."

I closed my eyes again trying to remember more. Then another memories flashed on my mind. Me and him, in this bed, moaning! Him on top of me, moving, while I was requesting for more. These memories just proved that he didn't forced me, especially that I can still fill him. What the heck?

I opened my eyes and met his gaze. Slowly, my face turned red. I can feel how hot it is. Embarrassing. I looked the other way because he intimidates me by just looking at me.

"Whatever you said, Avin, I don't care now," I tried hard not to sound embarrassed. "What time is it? I have work."

In my peripheral vision, I saw him take a look at the alarm clock on his bedside table. "It's already nine in the morning," he huskily said. As if seducing me.

It's already nine? I'm already late for work. I stood up and walked towards the bathroom. I can feel my head aching and in my every step, I can feel how sore my femininity. Shit! I hate my life.

"Stephanie, wait—" I didn't let him finished his sentence. I just closed the door and took a bath.

While I was bathing, I realized one thing. I don't have any clothes here! How come I forgot that?! Darn! Was that the reason why Avin was calling me? But what can I do? I panicked when I heard the time.

Currently, I'm working in our company which is connected to Osmond's company. They owned a car company and ours is the one who supplies them the car parts. We have branches all over the Philippines, our country, and Asia. It has expanded years ago when my cousin and Osmond's cousin got married. Right now, Osmond is the President and acting CEO. While I'm the COO in our car parts company.

What will I do now? I can't wear the same dress that I wore last night. That's a little bit revealing and not really for working. Whatever!

I just finished taking a bath and used the towel and robe that I saw. I don't know if those were already used by Avin but I don't care about that anymore. All I care right now are my clothes. I don't have any clothes here. When I got out of the bathroom I saw Avin sitting on the bed. Seriously? Did he even moved while I was bathing?

He looks serious while sitting. It's like he's thinking deeply about something. Avin is hard to read. I can't distinguished what was his emotions and reaction all the time. I feel like he's keeping it safe somewhere in his head. And only him knows if what are those exactly.

"Avin," I called then he immediately looked at me. "I don't have clothes. Buy me at the mall near here," I roamed around my eyes looking for my pouch. "Where's my pouch? My money and cards are there, and my phone, too. I need them right now."

"Don't think of buying clothes. My sister still has some clothes here. Maybe you both just have the same size. I will just get them," then he stood up. "By the way, your pouch is in my car, I think," he walked out the room. What's with him? He was playful earlier, but now. . . I don't know.

I sighed.

I waited for him to come back and when he came back, he just gave me the clothes and left. I just started to dressed up. After here, I will go directly at my workplace. Even though I want to go to my condo, I can't. I'm already late.

I hurriedly walked out of the room when I finished dressing up. I saw a food on his dining area and I felt really hungry. However, Avin wasn't there. So I ate alone and drank the medicine for my headache that's just on the table together with my pouch. I don't know if where did Avin go. I stood up and walked towards the penthouse's door and left.

Whatever happened last night shouldn't never happen again. I can't continue this with him. I'm still broke and I don't want to drag someone in my messy life. He was just a friend and the doctor who told me the bad news about Jake's death.
