11 Chapter 11: First time

Madi's POV:

The next morning, the intercom that connects from the CEO's office beeped. And I couldn't help not to raised my eyebrow. He's now calling me?

"Ms. Davis, where are you?"

His voice rang from the device.

"Huh?" I unconsciously asked.

"Where's my schedule and my coffee?"

-'Ohh...'-

"Coming Sir." my smile widened as ran towards the pantry. I won.

After making his coffee and getting my note pad, I knocked on his door.

"Come in."

-'Oops! Welcome back to me!'- I smiled as I pushed the door. His familiar scent meet my nostrils when I entered his office.

So it's true.. there's always a first time for everything. Every time I entered on his door.. he's always busy either on paper works on his hands or his eyes on the monitor. But this time, he's not doing anything. He's just leaning on his chair and his hands were crossed over his chest.

He watched me walking towards his desk, eyeing my moves as if he wants to say something but never opened his mouth.

He smirked after I put his coffee in front of him...on his desk.

I found it creepy but I ignored his stare. I intake a deep breath and smiled at him.

"You wanna know your schedules for today, Mr.Wilsons?" I asked checking my note pad.

"You haven't greet me, good morning, Ms. Davis."

"Ohh!" I mentally slapped myself. "I'm sorry, Sir. Good morning." how did forget to greet him? Well, this is also my first time.

"Good morning too, Ms. Davis."

And my eyes widened with his words. Did he just greet me too? Whoa!

And I froze when he picked up his coffee.... smiling.

"Fuck!"

I slowly cursed unconsciously.

He smiled! He still knows how to smile! Thank heavens!

"Did you just cursed me?" he asked furrowing his eyebrows.

"What? D-Did I? I mean...shit!" and my eyes widened again. I said it out loud. "Ohh.. I'm sorry Sir, I mean that's just for myself.  I didn't mean to say it out loud. I'm just confused, you know. Because I found it true that there's always a first time in everything...Ohh...I'm sorry."

When did I start to ramble such words? Gosh! This is embarrassing.

But after putting his coffee down, he chuckled! I gulped as I watched him clutching his stomach.

-'God! what did I do for you to let me witnessed his smile and laugh? He's so handsome when he smiled.. and God! he's so sexy when he laughed. And he has a dimple on his left cheek, so cute.'-

After his moment of 'laughing for I don't know the reason'.. he straightened again his seat.

"Are you okay, Sir?" I asked subconsciously still looking on his face.

"Yes. Why did you asked, Ms. Davis?"

"A-Are you sure you're really okay? You don't have a fever or anything to caused you like that?"

"What do you mean?" he asked still smiling.

-'Is he really okay? Is he really smiling at me?'-

"Because you smiled. You even laughed. Wow! I'm surprised Sir, you still know how to do it."

After hearing my words, his face and smiled instantly dropped. And he came back again to his cold and serious face as he looked at me.

-'Oh shit, Madi! Way to ruin the moment!'- I bite my bottom lip. I wanted to slap my face.

"I'm sorry." I muttered slowly.

"What are my schedules?" he now back to his zombie mode.

I just shook my head when he looked back to the monitor of his computer.

I read all his listed schedules for the day without hearing any word from him.

"Anything else, Sir?"

"You can go back to work!"

He said not looking at me.

I sighed but not enough for him to hear. I don't know what comes into me but I stand straight and get his attention again.

"You know what Mr. Wilsons..." I wait for him to look up and when he did, I continue. "You really handsome and cute when you smile."

I praised him smiling, I noticed how he was taken aback by my words.

And with that, I didn't wait for him to say even a single word. I walked towards the double door without looking back and exited on it.

When I am finally outside, I tapped my face with my both palms. I need to do it because I felt my face burning from embarrassment. I called him handsome and cute. Shit!, What

Would he think of me?

When our lunch break came, I can't help myself not to tell Sandy what was happened inside Mr. Wilsons office. But of course.. not those blushing moment of mine and those sexy things I thought about him.

I pulled her in the furthest corner of the cafeteria to make sure no one can drop their ears to our conversation.

"What is that Madi, that you really pulled me in this furthest corner?" she complained with a sour face.

"We need to sit here because what I am about to tell you is a piece of shocking news!"

"Wow.. make it sure I'm going to be shocked by your 'shocking news'." she mimicked my words but I just smirked.

"Well.. he smiled..." I said cutting the sentence.

"What? Who smiled? Don't tell me it's Mr. Wilsons, because that is what we called mirac-----"

"Yes."

"What?" her eyes widened.

"And he even laughed, Sandy!"

"Oh fuck! Are you serious? He smiled and laughed?" her loud voice captured the attention of some employees near our table.

"Hey! Sit down!"

I glared at her when she stand in surprise.

"Are you sure you're not just kidding?" she asked almost in a whisper

"I'm not. I'm telling you. I saw him smiled and laughed for the first time." I can still imagine his face.

"Oh my God! That's really a shocking news, Madi!" she took her handkerchief and put it on her mouth as she screamed in excitement.

"See? I told you."

"But how did it happened? I mean, when? Why didn't you call me?" she furrowed her eyebrows.

And I told her what happened early this morning and even what happened yesterday.

"Gosh! He did that? He really closed the door just to tell you that he's not allowing you to leave?"

I nodded.

"That's creepy."

"Yes. Because he wants me to accept his deal."

"Haist!" she sighed. "What if you accept his deal?"

"And then what? Helped him get his revenge?"

"No! Not in that. But to help him to move on and see the bright side of their break up." she leaned in her seat. "Well, you can't blame him, he got hurt and it's deep. It changed all his personality and perspective in life."

A soft chuckled came out from my lips. It's the same with Noelle's words.

"Come on, Sandy. You know what was his real reason for wanting me to be his wife. We already talked about this!"

"Yeah.. but what if accepting his deal you become friends and you can be able to help him to be his real self again?"

"Real self?"

"Madi.. I know you're thinking about his stupid plan against his ex .. and the great amount of money he's willing to spend. But, I'm here Madi. If you don't want to take the money.. just accept his deal and I'm the one who's gonna take it."

She ended her suggestion with a laugh.

I glared at her. "So, you want me to accept his deal because you're up to his money?"

"Just kidding!" and she laughed again.

I only watched her as she laughed and I just rolled my eyes.

"Wait! Did he mentioned anything or what consists of his deal, besides paying you his millions?"

I straightened my seat. "No. Remember, I walked out when he didn't want to tell me half of what happened. And yesterday he told me, that if I accepted his offer he's going to give me a lot of works. Cooking for him, polishing his shoes and bringing his suitcase! My God! He just wanted me to be his maid! I mean.. this beauty and brains that I have? No way!"

She ended up coughing after she laughed so hard on me.

"I love you, Madi!" she said still laughing.

"I know." and I rolled my eyes.

"That's what I'm talking about, Madi." she suddenly became serious.

"What do you mean?"

I also asked seriously.

"You two had a different personality. He's cold and you're warm to people and easy to approach. He's sometimes rude and bossy but you're down to earth.. and he's kinda distant, y to approach. He's sometimes rude and bossy but you're down to earth.. and he's kinda distant, loner.. let's just say introvert. But you Madi, you're his total opposite. You're adventurous and love to accept challenges!"

"Wow! That's long." I'm talking about her speech. I was right when I told Noelle, that she and Sandy have the same personality. But I love them both.

"Was that all you can say?"

"Uhm.. thanks for your long speech but you forgot one thing." a smile formed my lips.

"What?" she asked confused.

"You forgot to mention that 'I am beautiful." I proudly stated.

She glared at me first but after a while, we were both laughing our life out.

"But.. Sandy, no matter how long and nice your speech was, my answer is still 'no'."

"Madi---"

"No. This is not just a simple offer, Sandy. This is marriage we're talking about here. A life challenging offer. If I accepted it, how would I explain that to my mom?"

She sighed and just shrugged her shoulders.

I never wished to get married at this age.. not if I found the right one for me. And I never planned it to be a marriage of convenience. If I am going to marry someday, it should be my dream wedding. To the man of my dreams and to the man I loved.
