002-One Hour every Tuesday
The next day, during Lunch, Lea walked her way towards the school cafeteria.
She sat on her favorite table behind the big pillar.
After settling in, Lea took out her lunch and ate while reading.
Pia barged in a few moments later and ate with her.
Lea didn't care to look up because she can tell its her just from her strong perfume.
Pia
Are you really just gonna ignore me?
Lea
Should I even out your panda eye?
Pia
You don't need to be violent!
Lea continued to eat in silence, focusing on her book.
Pia felt annoyed that Lea's ignoring her.
Pia
Can you delete that video?
Pia
Where did you even get it?
Lea set her book aside and covered her meal.
Lea
Its not really a secret.
Lea
You know when you seduce someone on a library, its like you're asking people to silently watch you, even if its a place that people rarely go to.
Lea
I was there when you asked the professor to do you in exchange for an average passing grade.
Pia
So? Everyone does it except you.
Lea
Well, I don't really need to slut my way into graduating. I'm the smartest student here.
Pia
You still didn't answer my question.
Lea
I recorded it obviously.
Lea
What are you so surprised for?
Lea
I must have knocked you out pretty good yesterday then.
Lea
Oh wait, you don't really have a brain so I guess this is understandable.
Lea grabbed Pia's collar and dragged her across the table.
Lea
You see, I know how you bitch about me since day one.
Lea
I don't really mind because I too was bored.
Lea
But you know what irked me more?
Lea
People pestering me over trivial things.
Lea
I don't view you as anything but trash.
Lea
You might think I appreciate your company, but in reality, I'm just playing with you.
Lea
So get off your high horse and beg.
Lea
Yes, beg me to delete the video. I recorded it because I know I can use it against you someday.
Lea
And as expected, you're here.
Lea released her, crossing her hands as she leaned her back on her chair.
Lea
You know your clap backs aren't really making me tremble on my seat.
Lea
Can you at least put an effort on it?
Pia pouted like she's about to cry.
Pia
I don't want my life to end here.
Lea
Cry more then I'll consider it.
Pia bit her lip. Regretting the fact that she went against someone as tough as Lea.
Lea sneered at her through her nose. The helplessness on Pia's eyes gives Lea an immesurable satisfaction she never felt before.
Lea reached out for Pia's face and grabbed it.
Lea fished her phone out and deleted the video.
Pia perked up and thanked her.
Lea
Are you really that naive?
Pia
You already deleted it so glaring at me won't work anymore.
Lea smiled knowingly. She knew Pia was dumb but she didn't expect that she'll be this dumb.
Lea
Oh honey. You didn't expect that it was the only copy I had right?
Lea
Get lost! Talking with you makes me dumb.
Everything is as usual while Lea worked. It was until Arcana barged in fifteen minutes before they close.
Ken didn't mind since they are still technically open.
"If boss is okay with it, then it can't be helped." is what Lea would like to think.
But in reality, Lea is grinding her teeth in annoyance.
The people she wished to never see again, came in as if they naturally planned to come.
Brent
We'll have three iced americanos with extra shot of sugar-free syrup, three green tea lattes and one salted caramel macchiato please.
Ken
Would you like to add something to eat Sir?
Brent looked over the pastry section.
Brent
Do you have anything guilt free? They are a bit on a diet now.
Ken
We have sugar-free dark chocolate cookies. They're only fifty calories per cookie.
Brent
Wouldn't that be too bitter?
Ken
We used organic sugar replacement. My assistant, Lea, researched and baked the pastries we sell.
Ken
Since most of our regular costumers are women, and are overly conscious about their figure, we figured it be best to put effort into serving them according to what they wished.
Ken
Luckily I have a talented assistant.
Ken glanced over Lea direction and Brent followed his gaze.
Brent
Uhm. Is she like your girlfriend?
Lea saw Brent's relief as soon as Ken answered.
Lea
I recommend our "good cookie". It will match the drinks you ordered Sir.
Brent
Okay then. We'll have those as well.
Lea handed the trays and since its too much for one man to carry two trays, Ken helped him.
Lea observed them as they walk towards Arcana's table.
Ken returned inside the booth and helped Lea wipe the cups dry.
Ken
So they asked if they can come here every tuesday after closing hours.
Lea
That's unusual. What did you say boss?
Ken
I agreed since they'll pay a hefty sum for it.
Lea
I see. Goodluck with that then boss since you'll be going home later every tuesday.
Ken laughed at Lea's attempt to run away from work.
Ken
Of course you'll be paid overtime.
Lea
How much are we talking about?
Ken
Three times your basic.
Lea cracked her neck thinking about it.
Lea
I'll agree if you add some hazard pay considering that I'll have extra work, going home later at night and those boys aren't really the tidy bunch.
Lea
I'll be in your care then Boss.
After work, Lea walked slowly as she hiked her way home.
She saw someone bending over the railing of the bridge she usually takes.
Lena subconsciously ran towards the person and grabbed his coat.
She dragged the man away from the railing.
Lea slapped him after scolding him.
Lea heard the cat's meow. She searched for the origin of the sound and immediately went to grab it after finding it trembling on the edge of the railing.
Lea
How did you even get in there you stupid cat!
While Lea scold the cat, the man she dragged remained seated, feeling amused as he watched her.
Lea ran towards the man to check him.
She squinted her eyes and she immediately recognized that face.
Zeke
Your slap was a little over the top don't you think?
Lea
Sorry about that. I thought you were trying to die.
Zeke laughed, not really giving it much thought.
Zeke
Still my cheek kind of hurts.
Lea handed the cat over to him and it purred as soon as it was in his hands.
Lea
Why are you still here anyway?
Zeke
Its our day off tomorrow, and I was in a pensive mood.
Lea
Aren't you afraid that paparazzis might take pictures of you?
Zeke
I have my ways with dealing with them if they ever dared.
Lea
Why are you walking with me?
Zeke
You slapped me, so you need to take responsibility. What if my cheeks swell?
Luckily it was dark so Zeke didn't notice.
Lea
What do you want me to do then?
Zeke
I want something warm to eat.
Zeke
I want you to make it.
Zeke
Cause you slapped me!
Lea
Fine. Just so you know, you might die eating my cooking.
Zeke grabbed Lea's wrist and they head down the bridge where his car was parked.
His driver opened the car door for them and Zeke gestured that Lea go in first.
Though reluctant, Lea went inside and Zeke followed.
The silence was unexpectedly comforting for Lea.
She can only hear the cat purring.
Lea
Looks like it took a liking to you.
Zeke
Seems like it. Ah! I'm glad your boss agreed that we spend time in your cafe every tuesday.
Zeke
We're productive whenever we hang out in your cafe.
Zeke
We even finished the last song we've been dreading to make for the last few months.
Zeke
Not much of a talker are you?
Lea
I'm more of a listener.
Not a moment later, they arrived at his private residence.
Zeke held Lea's hands as they walked inside.
He let the cat go as soon as they reached the living room.
Zeke was still holding Lea's hands.
Lea didn't mind him as she gets lost in awe of his house.
Zeke walked Lea into the kitchen.
Zeke
Get cooking then. I'll take a shower. The ingredients are inside the pantry.
Lea made him an egg drop soup and sweet chili glazed salmon.
Zeke
It smells amazing in here.
Zeke walked in still drying his hair with a towel.
Though he's on his pajamas, Lea can see how ripped and muscular Zeke is.
He sat across the counter top, waiting for Lea to serve his dinner.
She doesn't understand why, but something about Zeke makes Lea's heart beat rapidly.
She handed him his food. While he stuffed his face with food, Lea tidied the kitchen.
Lea took two glasses out and the apple and carrot juice she made earlier.
Zeke
You look pretty natural inside my kitchen.
Zeke
Like you were meant to move around it.
Lea
Are you trying to flirt?
Zeke
Did I make you fall for me yet?
Zeke
Yet? So I caught your attention?
Lea's bluntness kind of surprises Zeke.
He never met someone as honest as Lea.
He only met her yesterday, and now he invited her in his house.
He felt like it was too soon but after seeing her in that cafe, he knew he's interested.
Lea watched him eat while they conversed about his career.
Zeke
Enough about me. I want to know more about you.
Lea
I don't think there's much to tell.
Zeke
I want to know if you have a boyfriend.
Lea
I won't be here if I did.
Zeke tried to hide his relief but Lea's too observant to not notice.
Lea
Can I be honest with you?
Lea
I don't engage in relationships not because I lack suitors.
Lea
Its because I'm straightforward, and a little crazy that's why they don't pursue me further.
Lea
So if you're approaching me because you got a little curious, I suggest you stop now.
Lea
If you love your career, then you better keep your distance from me.
Zeke felt the urge to touch Lea's face.
He traced her lips with his thumb, coaxing it open.
Lea decided to go with the flow and licked his thumb and bit it gently.
Zeke
You say that but you don't even know who I really am.
Zeke
Do you think you can handle me?
Zeke
Wait till you get to know me then decide who's crazier.
Zeke stood and cornered Lea with his thumb still between her teeth.
He laced his other hand behind her back, pushing her against his hips.
Lea felt something long, and hard and big bulging against her stomach.
She saw the lust reflected in his eyes when she looked at them.
The warm breath he exhales while he inch his face closer to hers.
All Lea can hear is the loud banging on her heart against her chest.
Zeke grabbed her hands and placed it against his heart.
Zeke
Do you know how much my heart does this whenever I think of you?
Zeke
I only met you yesterday and I'm already aching to touch you.
Lea
You need to get yourself checked then.
Zeke
You're making me crazy..
Zeke hugged Lea, nuzzling his nose against her neck.
He brushed his lips against her skin and he can feel her slowly trembling.
Lea
C-can y-you please n-not do t-that?
Zeke looked at her and fear was clearly reflected on her face.
He hugged her, trying to comfort her.
Zeke
I'm sorry. I took it too far.
His eyes widened when he felt Lea return his embrace even if she was still trembling.
