My phone rang, making me wake up from my sleep.
Who's calling me in the morning?
I checked who it was. It's Carol.
"What do you want?"
She screamed on the other side.
Ugh! My ear!
"Hey, Carol! Did you call me in the morning to scream inside my ear?" I bolted out to her.
"You said you aren't dating her then what's with all the pictures about?"She asked while chuckling on the other side.
"What pictures?" I asked her in confusion.
"Hahaha. It seems like you haven't seen it yet. I don't want to ruin the surprise. See it for yourself. Check out your girlfriend's Facebook page. Bubye."
What is she blabbering about?
I let out a sigh.
I visited Elena's Facebook page. I scrolled through her feed.

We finished eating."I feel like I want to drink something?"She behaved like a spoiled kid."What about water?" I teased her back.She stared at me."You don't have any fruits in here to make fresh juice. I wonder how you spend all your money. You don't have vegetables or fruits to eat at home. You don't have instant foods either. You don't wear expensive clothes. You don't wear heels. You don't put on a lot of makeup. You don't hangout daily. What are you doing with the money that you're earning?""Woah! I don't have any food at home? I realised after hearing it from you. I must buy eatables tomorrow after coming from the office.""I asked how you spend money?""I don't.""What?""I-I… I spend only on merch since other things will be bought by my brother."

Nick's pov;Kiss.Why do people kiss each other? There are many reasons to kiss the person in front of you.Mainly, it's because you like that person and want to take your relationship further. It's what everyone thinks but a kiss can also begin, continue or ends the relationship too.There are also kisses out of a relationship which is from lust.But our kiss doesn't fall under any of these conditions. And I still wonder why I kissed her all of a sudden.Is it because of the environment? Is it because of our closeness? Or is it because of the release of oxytocin?(Oxytocin - hormone released to arouse or relaxes you)She said I kissed because to reconcile with her and said that's maybe my way with others too. I wonder where she got that from?I couldn't figure out why she took my kiss as a re

Nick's pov;I came to a nearby take out restaurant near Elena's place since we're both tired of cleaning the place and didn't cook for lunch.Mi Casa Americana. The only place in Anaheim which has great Mexican food to my taste and which is also close to her place.I ordered the chicken nachos and fries as appetizers.

"Where are you now?" Elena asked me on call while I'm working at the office."At the office, ofcourse." I answered back to her."What!? Why did you go to the office today?""Why?""Did you forget? you're the one who said that my brother is coming today. I thought I'd introduce you to him.""We already met, Elena.""But he asked me to bring you along with me when he sent the address.""Why?"She ended the call.Woah! Did she just end the call?(Nick Winston 25, graphic designer. got rejected by a girl on a call for the first time in his life.)"When did you start laughing like an idiot?" Chuck asked me."Hmph!""Ah! The stern face again. Who was on the phone? I bet it's

Elena's pov;In Elena's workplace,"Hey, Elena! Did Matt say anything about changing his department?""No, why?" ,asked while I was responding to the emails which I received for the past two days.She leaned over to me and said slowly, "I heard that he changed his department here again.""What!?""Yeah, and I also saw him leaving Bill's cabin this morning when I went to give the scheduled appointments to Bill.""Stop spreading the rumours again, He may have come to discuss some work with Bill.""Really?""Why are you scaring me even before you know it for sure?" , I returned back to checking the mails.Alex came while I was still looking into the mails and informed, "Bill asked for you." And left to his place.

Elena's pov; Finally we finished cleaning the place together, and Nick went out to buy some lunch since we're tired of making one at home. In the meantime, I started watching a horror movie which I mostly watch and the only genre can be found in here. I haven't bought other genres since I'm not interested. After some time he returned with the food but fled before eating it. I ate the food after waiting for him for a long time and started watching a movie. Nick came finally. He sat beside me asking me what I ate and what movie I was watching and stuff like that. While he was talking with me, I smelled alcohol on him. Seeing me sniffing on him he said, "I had a beer." "Really? Did you just run off to drink beer with someone?" "You're not my girlfriend or are you?" He asked me back.

In the office,"Sir, I gave the report to Matt as you said and I think he would have checked it by now. Should I go and get it for you?" , I said to Bill."No need. I already received it from him. I called you to inform you that I'm changing you to the HUO department for some days because they said they are in need of an executive officer so you'll be working there for a while. I agreed to them before asking you. Is that okay for you?"He's changing my unit. The way he behaved yesterday and changing departments all look related now. Yes. He must have known something about me and Matt for sure. Should I agree or not? If I accept this, I can stay away from Matt , but at the same I couldn't be near my friend, Steffanie. Even if she knows about this, she would also suggest that I work in another department as well. Okay."Yes, Sir.""Well, take this along with you and give it to the he

Nick's pov;After the kiss,"I-I'll get going." I uttered while leaving the house.She nodded hurriedly.I left Elena's place.I came to my place.I kissed her quickly because I lost control of myself when she gave a peck on my lips. Why did I kiss her again? What will she take that kiss as? Why does the kiss always be meaningless between us? She took the previous kiss as an apology way, what will she take this kiss as? Wait. She's the one who first kissed me then why am I worrying about this. Thinking about that, Why did she kiss me? If I didn't react quickly to that, I would have asked her the reason but how can I now?What if she asks me the same thing? How should I answer her?Urghhh!After getting out of the showe
