"W-wrong?" I staggered.
"Ms Castro, why do you think it is love?" He asked.
"Well, it's a wonderful feeling of warmth and trust on another person. With that feeling, it takes us to greater heights in life. We learn to listen, to be patient, and to be understanding. In c
Carmen's POVI looked at myself in the mirror. Today would be my first day of work. I gave myself 2 months of settling in, before beginning my actually mission:Getting all the info Julios Black had of the underground.
Carmen's POVThe ride to the meeting venue was just plain quiet andawkward. I desperately wanted to whip out my phone and look through my messages but wouldn't that be just plain rude to him???
J-julios...? What was he doing?His grip didn't loosened even after a good 10 seconds. I don't think he has any attention of letting go either...ugh what should I do..I made no movement to return his gesture and just simply accepted his actions. He probably thought I was alright with this, and started trying to pry open my fist so that we could intertwine our hands.Keep calm Carmen, keep calm. You have to do this. Youhaveto do this. Keeeeeeeeeeep calm Carmen Santini. Remember, it's forthem.I let out a soft sigh, barely for anyone to hear, and reluctantly loosened my fist and welcomed his hand.We locked hands with each other as
Julio's POVThe day ended like a broken down NYC train. God theoneday i wanted work to be done fast, it takes the longest, god.I didn't even tell Kleo where we were going, just dragged him into my car and strapped his seatbelt in."Ms Castro?" He went straight to the point."Oh you bet 'cha." I smirked as I started the engine.Carmen's POV"Good work today!! See you tomorrow!" I spoke to the security guard lady before leaving the building. Welp, first day wasn'tthatbad i suppose.
My mind started going haywire as i thought of any possible reasons as to whyhewas here.I shook Kiara till she came to her senses. Trust me when I say, that girl can handle her alcohol very well."What what. I was busy fantasizing my non existent boyfriend." She groaned."Julios. 12 o'clock." I covered my face in embarrassment.She stayed silent for awhile before speaking again, her voice sounding exceptionally serious. "Wanna go somewhere else?"I was honestly quite shocked at how calmly she responded. Usually she would've been like, "OH MY GOD YOU SHOULD GO TALK TO HIM" or something. But all she told me was if I wanted to go somewh
Carmen's POVMy eyes couldn't help but dart to his angle every now and then. Curiosity filled my mind as i wondered why he was here.Kiara must have gotten really frustrated as she started frowning at me."Hey, if you're really curious about bossy boss over there, imma just head out." She crossed her arms."But it's girls' night..""Exactly. Since you know that, shall we ditch this hellhole and go to a club??" Her eyes started to sparkle.I gave it a little thoughts, doing a 2 seconds debate inside my mind."Hm..."...Kleo' POV1, 2, 3 and down.He was drunk.I rolled my eyes as I saw this state for the 1000th time ever since i met him.Julios had always been a light drinker, so when he really gulps down those glasses of whiskey, it
Carmen's POVI tried to imagine i just heard that wrongly- like, He wants ME to go to HIS house?!!What?! This is-.....So we all hopped onto his car and off we went. I still couldn't grasp at the situation at hand. This was all too sudden. God literally 5 minutes ago i was still at the bar talking to them before getting scolded by Kiara for ditching her.But this?!wow. just w
It ended as fast as lightning. He simply handed me the contract and a pen and asked for my signature on the dot.Geez no rush Mr Poopy Pants..I looked through the contract and hesitated for awhile before signing. I mean, the consquences do scare me. I justhategetting involved with the government.I passed him back the contract and he nodded his head.He placed it on the table and extended his hand out. "Thank you."Woah, did his mood just change?It was as if he was relieved.I smiled and shook his hand as a response as we proceeded to chat more about Julios. Surprisingly, this guy knew a lot about him. Any time we had a topic, Julios would be the first example he could think of and it would continue to a whole ass conversation by itself.It was nice to learn more about him, but what I realized, was that he didn't have any example of himself. All he he knew and talked about wa
