Door knocks

Spencer " Come in "

Rita " Sir , a client of Mr. Marcus is here to meet you "

Spencer " let her in "

Rita " Miss , please... "

Sunny " ah.. thank you Rita "

Rita " you're welcome "

I kept praying that Charles should not be in and ..

Sunny " huh..! "

Spencer " Please be seated Miss , Sir is busy in a phone call , and your cheque is here "

Sunny " 😍 thanks !! hehe "

Spencer " I see your happy! But I cannot guess for which reason it is "

Sunny " huh! no no ! it's just the payment! I'm happy to get my payment! "

Spencer " I see !! "

Sunny " I'll go then thank you ! "

Charles " Stop! "

Sunny " ...😨"

Charles " Are you really happy your payment? "

Sunny " Ye.. yes..yes!! I am , who's not happy"

Charles " I see! You won't stay for a chat? "

Sunny " Uh... umm.. "

Charles " Spencer ! "

Spencer " Yes sir " and with that command , he leaves them alone Charles walks towards Sunny and stands face to face with her

Charles " Did you cry again? "

Sunny " No.. no " turns her head

He holds her face and taps her eyes again just like he use to ,

Charles " Well as much as I know , you can lie but your eyes cannot "

Sunny " uh...ah.. "

Charles " I'm really curious about your troublesome life, how can you let it happen when you know it'll hurt ? "

Sunny " What do you mean ? "

Charles " what I mean is you're someone who doesn't know how to let go of things am I right? "

Him saying this about me kinda reminds me of my life , how I can't let go of the matters that has happened

Sunny " And what makes you say that "

Charles walks towards his chair and says " well... you've shown yourself that night and went to him "

Sunny " you knew? you waited for me ? "

Charles " well .. I did my gesture as a gentleman but sadly the lady was still in her past "

Sunny " no Charles it's not like ...."

Charles " Shh..... "

he stands up and walk towards her again, and puts his finger in her lip and whispers" shh.... !

what's gone is gone , I don't like to hold on to things... and that night was just an invitation to you as to talk about business and nothing else.. so I hope you didn't have any hope .. or did you?? " he smirks

this person standing infront of me was not that caring person I used to know, he is different today

Sunny " Hmph! I'm glad it was and don't worry I didn't have any hope sir!! after all you were my boss! plus I'm glad to know about your real self now . the saying goes true as always Don't judge a book by it's cover and you're that book you see ! sometimes you should read about yourself , and yeah thank you for paying so much I'm glad my coffee help your customers and employees . Good bye ..!

and then sunny leaves, Charles was confused about what just happened!

Charles " what just happened? "
