Chapter 2; Chuckie

I'm confused now. I am torn between telling Essa about that guy or not. I do not know what to do. Especially since she failed the quiz earlier and couldn't pass the project just because of that man.

She said she did nothing again last night but look at the pictures of the man on her cellphone. She didn't even know the name of that guy and even though I know him, I wouldn't say. I knew she would upset me if she found out it was Paqua and most of all it was Madame Irina's grandson, and it was for her own good so I didn't want to say.

it's been three days since that man came home and all he would do in the mansion is to watch television, call his friends, eat, work and flirt with Jahra. That’s his daily routine at the mansion and even though he doesn’t do anything bad to me I hate him.

I hate him.

"Anaya, take this juice to Sir Demeur," Aleng Lordes told me.

I frowned at Aleng Lordes. I would have liked to appeal and tell the others but there is no one here in the kitchen now except the two of us. Manang and Jahra are at the grocery while Kc and Sofia go to school because it's Sunday.

"All right Aleng Lordes. Where is Sir Demeur?" I asked her, heavy inside and hopefully she would notice.

"He's in his room. Please take this there because he might be thirsty."

She didn’t notice that I didn’t want to deliver that so I did nothing. I didn't speak anymore and I immediately took the glass with only orange juice and immediately went upstairs to deliver him the juice ordered by Aleng Lordes.

when I got to the front of his room I immediately knocked but no one answered. I knocked again this time he answered.

"Come in!" Baritone said so I turned the door knob to enter.

When the door opened I immediately entered. I closed it too then faced him. I almost let go of the juice I was carrying when I saw him.

Nothing else, just towels.

I saw how the smirk drew on his face when he saw I was surprised. I looked away not because I was considered but because I just didn't want anyone else to think I was affected when I saw his body because of my reaction.

"Sir, this is your orange juice. Where can I put it?" I asked him, not looking at him.

I saw from the corner of my eye that he was sitting on the last part of his bed while looking at me, in my hand.

"Why orange juice?"

I looked at him.

"Why not orange juice?"

He frowned, wondering at my disgusted voice.

“I didn’t say I want an orange juice,” he told me while pointing to the orange juice, he said calmly.

“Manang Lordes just told me to bring it here, I just followed her order,” I said, already annoyed with him.

"Why orange juice?" He asked me, like a child when asked.

I gasped. "Why not orange juice? What do you want, grapes juice, mango juice, coconut juice? What?"

"I-"

I raised one eyebrow. Waiting for what he wanted to say. By looking at him, I knew he had something to say. he opens his mouth to say something but does not come out.

"What do you want?" I asked him again, impatient to wait.

"I-I ..."

He never finished again what he was supposed to say. He cuts, he doesn’t straighten. Now two of my eyebrows are raised. I looked at him intently and saw that he had been swallowed.

"Just get me some water," he said to me, calmly.

I was secretly hired. This one's art! he doesn't want orange juice because he just wants water, if he had said he only wanted water and he hadn't mixed juice with the water, I wouldn't have been bothered and gone back downstairs.

I left his room without letting him know. rude if I rude but I just don't know what's wrong with him and my blood is really boiling, his face is annoying. I can't stand it.

"Why did you return that juice for Sir Demeur?" Manang Lordes asked me when I entered the kitchen.

"He doesn't want to, he wants water."

"Is that so? Just take it there and deliver it to him," She told me.

I just nodded and like before never spoke again and took some water. I already brought a pitcher and I also brought a glass so that I wouldn't have to go back if he was still thirsty.

"This is your water Sir," I said when I entered.

he is now lying on his bed and he is already wearing clothes unlike before. I was secretly thankful that he was already wearing it, I was disgusted with his body.

"Why a whole pitcher?" He asked me again when I put the pitcher on his study table.

I adjusted that first by putting before I looked at him. I smiled but it was fake and I hoped he would notice.

"Maybe you're thirsty."

His forehead frowned. "I'm not thirsty, I hope you just brought a glass ..." he said as he slowly sat on his bed.

"Because Aleng Lordes said, maybe you need a pitcher. Do you have anything to order?"

"None," he replied while shaking.

I smiled again but it was fake again. "Then I'm leaving, if you need anything, Aleng Lordes and I are just downstairs."

He just nodded as he watched me. I turned my back on him but before that I smiled shyly. I stepped closer to the door and was about to touch the doorknob when he called my name.

"How did you know my name?" I asked him, I wondered.

I saw him swallow his own saliva and then he bit his lip.

"I asked Manang Corazon ..."

My lips parted and I looked at him in disbelief. Immediately annoyance flared up all over my body because of what he said.

he asked my name to Manang Corazon? For what?! To flirt with me like he does with Jahra? I pointed at him violently.

"Why did you ask my name to Manang Corazon? Maybe you have something you like about me 'no! Gosh! Don't be me Sir, I'm not slandering the boss!You're already flirting with Jahra and then you're going to follow me?! "I said annoyed.

He turned to me and now he was the one who felt sorry for me. He was shocked by what I said while still frowning. maybe he was surprised because I nailed him, not content with flirting with Jahra and I would be next.

What did my friend like, playboy!

"You're so shocked Sir... you don't think I'm going to throw you anything? I'm sorry but I didn't type you, I don't like playboys and man whore, you basted on me. "

"W-What are you talking about?" He asked in astonishment, still shocked.

I laughed out loud and put my hair back then just stared at him.

"You like me don't you Sir? That's why you asked my name to Manang Corazon because you're interested in me. You want to flirt with me and then marry me. I know that style of the city people very well! We will be fooled here in the farm afterwards. will breed and leave sorry to burst your bubble Sir but I know that technique already. I'm a provincial but I'm not a fool! "

The surroundings became quiet. His lips were pitiful. It’s like I want to honor myself for what was said. He seemed to think he was going to fool me. No way! I'm not a fool like those girls in this house, to be specific I'm not like them Jahra.

I thought he would be silent for the rest of his life but I was surprised when he suddenly laughed, that laugh was so loud. I looked at him curiously.

Why is he laughing?

"You thought that I have a crush on you Anaya?" He asked me while he is laughing.

His face was already red with laughter. Because maybe he was white and he was very pleased with what I said. My lips twitched when I remembered his question.

"Why not? are you too late to appeal? I'm ashamed of you Sir! "

Because of what I said he laughed even more. Now he's too much energy. He laughed twice as much as before and I was disgusted with his laughter! Annoying!

"What are you laughing at there? You're annoying ah!"

he was held by his side and slowly got up while still laughing. After that he pointed at me.

"You .... you're a freaking good joker. I like you already!" He said while pointing at me with a raised eyebrow.

I looked at him seriously. "Do I look like I'm kidding? i know that you like me, I got you! "

He laughed again.

"How can you say that I like you? I just met you so how could that be possible?"

I laughed, in denial the playboy.

"Ask yourself, you already know the answer."

"Please enlighten me, I don't know what you're talking about," he said amusement is written all over his face.

I leaned over and stood up straight.

"You did ask my name to Manang Corazon. Now tell me you're not really interested in me. I caught you so just better accept that you're dead! "

"That's why I asked your name to Manang Corazon you're now making a story that I am interested in you?" he asked incredulously, amazed.

I nodded and nodded. “Yes, when men are interested in a woman they immediately ask her name. You're not an exception for that because you're a man and for that you asked my name to Manang Corazon, you're really interested in– "

"I asked Manang Corazon all the names of the maid in this house and that's including you," he said laughing as I stopped.

"W-What?"

He smirked at me. "I said I asked all the helpers name in this house, not just your name," he repeated again with pity on my lips.

I immediately felt redness on my cheek because of what he said. If he was shameless I would answer him now as if I had been poured a drum of shame.

I immediately covered myself with my hair because of the embarrassment I feel now. I heard him laugh because I did that which only increased the shame on my body.

"I-I'm leaving S-Sir ... just call us if you need anything ..." I stammered while not looking at him.

"Okay..." he said laughing which caused me to close my eyes tightly.

I immediately turned around while the hair was still covering my face. As I was about to walk out of his door I heard him speak again.

"Anaya, I'm not like you okay? stop assuming things honey, maybe you really like me, "he said just to tease me that he was succeeding.

I came out of his room red-faced.

I screamed as I got a little farther from his room. I shouted out of frustration, annoying! it's like I just want to pick myself up because of what I said before. I don't think for the words that I'd spoken, I just said word for word without thinking.

Annoying!

I'm not like that! i always filter my words and I always choose words to say but i didn't do that in front of him before, i was in a hurry and sent annoyance to him and i was irritated in that part. I no longer knew how to deal with him the next morning and later.

Shame I did.

"What happened to your face? Why are you so red Anaya?" Aleng Lordes asked me when I could go into the kitchen to get some water.

I was shaken. "Just because of the heat Manang, I went out earlier because I went to the pool .."

"What are you going to do there in the pool Anaya?"

"I'm just relaxing and then calming myself down because we have an exam tomorrow," I said here, lying.

She nodded. "That's why. I thought that's what happened to you."

I smiled shyly. "I'm fine," I said laughing, bursting out laughing.

She just nodded at me and so did I. Aleng Lordes and I first talked in the kitchen about my studies and various other things. Until Manang Corazon and Jahra arrived. When the afternoon came, Kc and Sofia arrived.

a day has passed since I was embarrassed at Sir Demeur's couch and I always avoided him at the mansion. I couldn’t bear to see him because I remembered how stupid I was when I told him those words.

I'm here at school again. we are under the narra tree, I am with Essa who is now busy on her cellphone looking at the man she is crazy about.

"Why aren't your men different these days, Essa."

She looked at me and slapped my arm again jokingly.

"Because I'm loyal to him here. I don't know but I'm not looking at others anymore, it's just I'm contented by looking at his pictures. I don't know ..." she said shaking while still smiling.

I was sniffed and secretly beaten. I couldn't understand Essa for liking that man. he's not likeable and he's not even that handsome, he's not kind, he's always teasing.

That's also why I avoid him because I'm annoyed with his voice that always echoes in the mansion, he always teases me and I don't like it. he just reminds me how stupid I was that day.

"What did you like about him?" I asked her.

She put the cellphone on her lap and after that she faced me, she's smiling widely as if she's not lazy to smile every time I mention her.

"Can't you see Anaya? Look at him, he has a very handsome face, body, he is likeable and he is husband material, I saw that he knows how to cook," she said while giggling.

My lips twitched. I admit he is a good man but he knows how to cook is very hard to believe. He isn't good at cooking, Manang Corazon told us that.

"Really?"

Essa nodded, still smiling. “Yes, Do you know that I already know his name and with a little push I will know his full name, "she said that made my eyes widen.

"Really?"

"Of course. He is Demeur, that's all I knew but that's okay with me, and at least I found out," she said.

"And how did you know that he's an CEO? When you didn't know his full name?" I Ask.

"He's an CEO, I know that."

I collected the lip. I don't know how I will feel. Will I be happy she found out or not. I was worried that she might find out what its real name really was.

She told me that his public information was not posted on his social media accounts, his username on all social media accounts was @iamfonso and she didn't know the name because it wasn't posted there. she didn't even know if it was a poser account or a real account.

"What if someone knows his name and then doesn't tell you. You know someone who knows you're dead to that man and then she won't tell you, how will you feel?" I asked her nervously.

she looked at me with a serious face. I was so nervous.

"If that happens of course I'll be angry. A few days I'll be able to soak in him and then I won't know who he really is and then she knows but she didn't say..you know Anaya, that's selfishness, she's selfish if that's the case. "

What she said lingered in my mind. Until I got out of school that was the stuff of my mind. What she have said is accurate, selfishness. but I can't say I'm selfish because all I do is for her.

This is also for Essa.

I can't say that it was a full selfishness because all I do is for her. For her to go straight on the path. idolizing is okay but you spin that world with that person is already bad. That's not healthy anymore.

I was just lost in thought when I heard my cellphone ring. I picked that up and looked at who was texting. I pressed the keypad of my Nokia phone and saw the message there.

From: Manang Corazon

Are you still at school?

I immediately typed a message to send to Manang.

To: Manang Corazon

Yes, why?

From: Manang Corazon

can you first go to the Convenient Store near there and buy a cardboard chuckie. Do you have money there?

I frowned because of the message I received from Manang. Shall we go chuckie? Who needs it?

To: Manang

There is still Manang. Is that all?

from: Manang

That's all. Hurry up because the child is hungry.

That was the message I received from her that amazed me even more. Is there a child in the mansion? There were no children there.

To: Manang

All right.

I immediately went straight to the Convenient Store near our school. it's the only store here, no 7/11 and whatnot in the city. We are really thankful and here it is because the goods are just cheap and you have many more options.

when I arrived at the Convenient Store, I immediately bought what Manang ordered. Fortunately, I still have five hundred pesos in my wallet and that's what I paid for. When I bought and I immediately went straight home.

"Man, Anaya is here, she's carrying a chuckie!" Sofia announced when she saw me enter the kitchen.

Manang Corazon was immediately startled in front of me with a wide smile. I wondered.

"Thank you and you're here, can you take that to Demeur first?"

I gasped. Even if I say I don't want to, I can't, so I just nodded to Manang. As I was going there I was still wondering if it was going to be chuckie. Who will drink it?

I knocked on his door. I was still wearing a uniform while I was still carrying my bag that hung over my two shoulders. I heard his voice from there so I turned the door knob and entered.

I even want to back off because I'm still ashamed to face him but I can't and then I'll also apologize to him for what I did in the past. I knew that was wrong because he was my boss, his grandmother was the one who educated and paid me.

"Hello Anaya! is that the chuckie for me? " he asked while looking at me angrily.

What? A CEO like him drinking Chuckie?

I just ignored his angry face and his question because I stood up straight.

"I'm sorry for what I did last time. I am sorry for accusing you and saying words beyond in our relationship, "I said sincerely.

I saw how his mouth dropped because of what I have said. But it was immediately replaced by a smile, just a small smile. He was shaken to the point of frowning at me

"Don't feel sorry that is nothing for me, can I have my chuckie now? "

I went back to trance. Right, his chuckie. I immediately handed him a carton of chuckie, it was still cold. He smiled at me but didn’t reach the eye and immediately took one and left it. I laughed because of his reaction when he was drinking then.

He looks like a child, he's sipping the drink while his eyes close and he is smiling widely while doing that. He consumed it in just two minutes and it even rang when he sucked on the empty one. I couldn't stop laughing so he opened his eyes.

"Why are you laughing at assuming girl?" He asked me seriously lifting my lips.

"Never thought that man like you is a chuckie lover," I said lifting his lips.

"It's okay to be a chuckie lover than you, you're assuming girl."

I was shocked by what he said and I didn't scold him anymore even though I was annoyed with him. Never knew that he is a chuckie lover.

It's not suitable for a man who looks like a model, but he's a chuckie.
