Chapter 35
Days had already passed without me knowing, but I still haven’t heard about the Alpha, even the mention of name never scape their lips. Maybe he isn’t looking for me at all. With that thought, I felt my world crashed down. Didn’t he missed me, because I missed him, so much, so much that I was dying to see him but, maybe he didn’t care about me.
With that thought, I release a bitter laugh. I laugh all the disappointment that I was feeling, not for the Alpha, not for anybody else, but for myself. Here I am again, thinking about him, feeling sad all of a sudden.
During those days, I haven’t seen Alice inside the mansion or anywhere I go, father seem to despite that topic. I don’t even know her whereabouts right now, but what I knew was he was still living with his father, our father, but still, I haven’t seen her. Maybe the talk with our father and the Alpha, works?
I was watching the garden from the window of my room, there were plenty of different flowers in the garden. I wasn’t very familiar with the kinds of flowers but they are all beautiful, what caught my attention the most was the black rose. Even from a distance, I can see the flower. Dozens of flower, yet all I can see was the beauty of that one unique flower.
I think I found my new favorite, it looks so magical yet poisonous. Those secretive demeanors that will later on unveil as a fallacy. It looks so interesting.
It looks so magnificent even from the distance, I love the way it shines even in the middle of those colorful flowers.
It was so quiet here, unlike in the mansion of the CEO, you can hear the sounds made by the maids. There were silent laughter and quiet whispers that was so fun to listen to.
I was taken aback from my own thoughts, when someone knocked on my door. I look at the door thinking if I should respond or just pretend that I was sleeping, it was so easy since they are not allowed to enter the room without my consent. I stand still beside the window, without making any noise, still calculating the situation.
After three knocks, the person on the other side stop.
“Señorita?” The woman on the other side called after several sets of knocks.
I was confused at first why they call me señorita, I even once searched it on the internet and I found out that it was a Spanish word. I even asked my father if we have Spanish blood, but we don’t. It was Alice’s mother, she was half Spanish, and she personally instructed the maids to call them señora and señor.
These title was passed down to Alice, and now to me. Amazing.
“Yes?” I answered. It was just two in the afternoon, I wonder why she is so eager knocking on my door.
I walked towards the door when I heard nothing but silence in the other side of the door. It was so quiet that I can even hear my footprint and it makes me feel so nauseous for I don’t know what reason.
I grip the door handle and slowly twist it. I made a little gap in the door until I can already see the maid. She was there, standing straight, her hands in front of her, her left hand resting over her right hand. Her face was void of emotions, her eyes never met mine, but she or should I say they, never look down on the floor.
They all look so creepy. They are all the same. Their face with an empty emotion and their voice that gives me chills and haunted me at night.
“Yes?’ I repeated when I open the door completely.
She node once before she started speaking.
“Señor ordered us to tell you to get ready, señor will take you to the company with him” she said shortly that made me confused. He could have just asked me instead of asking the maid to ask me.
“Is that all?” I asked her which made her node her head.
“Okay?” I said before slowly closing my door. I still have to prepare for whatever will happen later, even if I don’t want to, I don’t have a choice.
I hurriedly walk my way to the bathroom, I have to clean myself, I have to prepare, not only physically but also mentally.
I haven’t talk with my father after the scene in his office. He’s so busy with his business that he almost forgot about me. Sometimes, I heard my door open in the middle of the night, it was my father. He was saying sorry for his lack of time for me, saying that he will make it up to me when everything was finally on their right places.
I honestly understand him. I know that his profession requires a lot of time and effort. And to add that he was the former Alpha, I don’t know who replaced him since he doesn’t have a son, but I don’t know.
When I was still in the bathroom, I was thinking of the possible scenarios, and the result was not that good for me. I don’t know what’s waiting for me in the office.
I wore a simple gray trouser, paired with white tube and a silver cardigan. I was not used to stilettos, but the maid told me to wear formal attire, so I did. I completed my outfit with lighter shade of blue.
I tied my hair in a low bun and let some strand fall in the side of my face. I just sprayed some perfume, and I’m ready to go.
I grab my purse and started walking towards the door. Something might happen later, I don’t know if it’s good or bad, but my guts tell me to be ready.
My father was already in the car when I walked down the stair. The maid told me to just walk straight to the car, so I did.
The driver open the door and I saw my father, with his iPod on his hand. His forehead creased, as if he just read something not good.
He give me a glance and a small smile before he look at his iPod again.
“Hop in, we’ll be late” he said, not giving me a glance.
Doing what he told me, I hopped in the car. As I take my seat, the driver started to start manipulating the car.
