CHAPTER 09
Thana can't move when Elias comes near her. She don't know what to do so she just close her eyes tightly and pout her lips.
But to her surprise, Elias’ kiss landed on her side lips.
"Just this part first, a lot of people are watching" Elias whispered just near her lips.
Thana’s cheeks turned red, she covers it shyly. The crowd cheer and shouts their congratulations to the newly wedded couple.
After the wedding, the reception was also held in the hotel. All the guests proceed to the venue and eat there.
Thana is with her friends when Elias approached her "I have some business partners here" he said.
"And so?" Thana asked.
"Come with me. They hold some parts with dad's businesses, they don't know that this is just a play" Elias explained.
"Ohh! So you want me to act like I'm really inlove with you? Is that what you want?" Thana smirked getting the idea.
"Exactly! You smart woman" Elias tap her head softly like a puppy, she just glare at him.
Elias grabbed Thana’s waist near him making her jump a bit. They went to a lot of businessmen and she just fake her smile to every one of them.
"I'm tired" Thana whispered
"This is the last one, after this you can go back to your friends" Elias indulging her .
They went to a table where there are a lot of businessmen. Elias shake hands with an old man, but she find him handsome still even he's old already.
"Uncle, you came" Elias smiled as he greeted him.
"Yeah, I'm sorry I just arrived late. I wasn't able to come to the ceremony"
"It's fine uncle, I understand. Ahm by the way, this is my wife Thana Enriquez " Elias introduced her.
"Edward Enriquez’s daughter? Your father's secretary?" Mr. Casper asked.
"Ah yeah" Elias nodded. Thana was so confused who is this man Elias is talking with when she saw someone walking towards them.
It's Timothy Jones.
'What is this guy doing here?' she thought.
Elias saw the confusion in her face "He's Timothy’s father"
Thana’s eyes went wide open as she bows to greet him politely "Hello, nice to meet you"
"You look pretty, alas that Timothy didn't meet you first" Thana just laughed awkwardly at Mr. Casper’s remark.
"My little gift for you Thana, I didn't know you're getting married." Timothy looked at Elias and then to Thana "Congratulations"
"Thank you!" Thana smiled as she bows a bit to him.
"Sorry but we have to go now, my wife is tired. I'll be back later Mr. Jones" Elias lead her back to where her friends are.
"What's with the atmosphere earlier? I didn't know you know each other" Thana whispered to him as they walk.
"You don't have to know" he coldly said.
Thana just roll her eyes and walk faster than Elias, she sits beside Lexie and her family. Elias follows her and went to her parents.
"Eliiiii~" Thana was startled with her sister's sweet voice.
Elias heard Alice and went to her "Oh my! You grow up so big" Alice tried to reach for Elias’ hair to mess it but she can't reach it.
"Wow! You grew so tall" She said unbelievably.
"Thank you Alice" Elias smiled.
Thana was shocked at what she witnessed. Elias is close with her sister? Unbelievable!
"Thana, congratulations again" Lexie whispered beside her.
"Thanks Lex" she smiles sweetly at her "Where's Jhana and Jennyfer?"
"Ah right! Jhana went to the bathroom while Jennyfer went to her boyfriend" Lexie said.
"Levi?" She asked.
"Yes! By the way, I saw Timothy earlier. Why is he here? Is he friends with Elias?" Lexie asked curiously.
"Right?! I was confuse too, Elias didn't say anything maybe they know each other but they're not friends." Thana said confuse too. Lexie just shrug her shoulder and sip from her glass.
-
The night is almost over, it's near 10:00 P.M. when some people went home. Only some young businessmen and her friends was left.
"Thana, you will go home tonight and you'll move tomorrow to Elias’ house okay?" Her mom explained.
"Aren't you going home yet?" Her dad asked.
Thana’s dad looked around looking for Elias "Tell Elias we're going home now"
Thana was hesitating seeing Elias with his friends, she's embarrassed to interrupt them but she chose to go anyway.
They're laughing and teasing while drinking when she arrived, she went straight to Elias and lean to whisper "My parents are going home now"
Some of his friends looked at them and others just mind their own businesses.
Elias suddenly face her making her startled because of the small distance of their faces.
Thana stand up straight to avoid and walk fast away from them. Elias stand up too and follow her.
"Elias, we're going first" Her dad said.
"Ah! Okay uncle" Jungkook bowed goodbye.
"Aish really! You can call me dad now" Mr. Enriquez smiled at him.
" I'll try, we'll also going home any minute now" Elias said.
"Okay" Mr. Enriquez nodded and looked at Alice "Alice, you're going home now too?"
"Later dad" Alice said as she hug her mom goodbye.
Thana’s parents left them and the girls decided to go home after minutes.
"I have photoshoots early tomorrow" Jennyfer sighed at the thought of her busy schedule tomorrow.
"Me too, I have a drama shoot" Jhana seconded.
"Let's go together, I'm going home now too" Thana said.
"How about your husband?" Lexie asked.
Thana looked at where Elias is, he's still drinking with his friends.
"We don't live together yet, he can go home on his own" Thana said.
"You go tell him you're going home now Thana, don't be too rude to Eli" Alice said packing her things to her pouch and grabs her car keys "I'll go ahead now, Bye. See ya!"
Thana heave a sigh and went to Elias. She didn't reach there yet when Elias turned to her way, waiting for her.
With a straight face she said "I'm going home"
Elias just stares at her and then to her back where her friends are. Elias nodded and looked back to his friends.
Thana was about to walk when Levi spoke "How about a goodbye kiss? Nothing?"
The boys laughed at his remarks. Thana turned back and walk back to where Elias is sitting, the boys cheer for her.
The brave Thana that she is, she lean down to level his face with hers and smile "Goodbye"
Thana kiss him at his side lips making the boys cheer even louder. Thana turn her back regretting what she did, she walk forward fastly to her friend.
"WOW WHAT THE" Lexie said unbelievably, she is so amaze to Thana stunt.
While the conservative Jhana was left speechless.
Jennyfer just smirked and laughed a bit.
Elias was left speechless and also amaze at what she did.
-
Thana is packing all her things in her room, today is the day she's gonna move to Elias’ house.
Imagining herself playing house with Elias is unbelievable, can they have a peaceful life together?
"You should take care of your husband Thana, you need to make him breakfast and dinner" Her mom said.
"Mom, I'm not a maid" Thana said weakly.
"It's a wife duties to make sure your husband is full before going to work, do you even know that a way to a man's heart is through his stomach?"
Thana is confuse of what her mom is saying, she just ignore her and continue packing her things.
When she's done packing, she check her room for the last time and close the door. When she went to their door, she saw her mom crying.
"Mom, why are you crying?" Thana approached her mom and give her a hug "It's not like I'm leaving forever, I can always visit you here or you can always visit me there if you're bored."
Thana’s mom just sniff and wipe her tears "As you take care of your husband, you should also take care of yourself. If you're bored, you can come over. If you're tired, you can also come over. And if you're sad, mom is always here just come over" Her mom said emotionally.
Thana starts crying hearing what her mom said, her mom really knows her well. Her mom knows that she don't want this, that she was just force for her father.
She hugs her again and wave goodbye, she left with heavy heart. She stares at their house for the last time and went to her car as she drove her way to her new home.
Thana arrived at a secluded area, it's so quite. Elias texted her the address and she drove there with the help of GPS.
There are a lot of nice and beautiful houses, but one house attracted her. It's a house that is so minimalist, she don't know but it fits her taste.
She saw a guard, so she approached him "Excuse me sir, can I ask you where is Mr. Salazar’s residence is?"
"You mean Elias Salazar ma'am?" The guard asked back.
"Ah yes, yes that's right" Thana nodded.
"It's actually here ma'am, do you have an appointment to Mr. Salazar?" Thana was hesitating whether she'll tell him that she's their boss' wife or just tell him that she's one of his friends.
"Ahm can you just tell him that I'm here, my name is Thana Enriquez" The guard nodded and grabbed the telephone and called someone.
"You can now come in ma'am" The guard smiled. She went in with her baggages and walk straight to his house.
She was amaze of the exterior of the house but she is more amaze of it's interior. The house screams classic and art, her taste.
She was too drawn to the antiques, paintings and the interior designs that she didn't notice someone is walking down the stairs.
"You're here"
Thana was startled to the voice that it makes her jump a bit.
"Aish really! You startled me" holding her chest
"Is that all your things?" Elias said eyeing her things.
" Wow your house is so" Thana made a okay sign with her hand to express it.
Elias went outside leaving Thana and check her car park outside the gate. He told the guard to pick the other baggages and things on her car.
Elias went back inside and Thana is still drawn to his house.
"You like paintings?" Elias asked.
Thana just nod with a big smile and continue watching the paintings one by one.
Elias just tsked and went to the guard to order him to put her things upstairs.
"Just tell me if you're done" Thana didn't respond so Elias left to follow the guard.
Thana is so amazed to the paintings that she didn't pay attention to other things. When she's done watching them one by one, she started looking for Elias.
"Where did that jerk went?" Thana went to the kitchen but there's no one there, she went around the first floor but no one's around.
"He don't have any maid?" Thana went to the second floor but there are a lot of doors, she can't choose where to start so she went anywhere.
The first door that she opened was an empty room, the next one is the library and the next one looks like a gym "Wow he even has his own gym here. Tf!"
Thana is almost at the last door when the last door opens, revealing Elias "What took you so long?"
"Your house is too big, I don't know where you are" she said.
"Okay, I'll cook lunch. I have a meeting this afternoon" Elias just pass by her standing.
"Wait” Rosé stopping him.
Elias stopped and look at her "Where is my room?" she asked.
Elias just stare at her and then to her back "Just go to the last room, all of your things are there already"
Thana just nod and turn to walk towards the room. Thana stops when she reach the door, she grabs the door knob but before she can open it she stops.
"Geez. Why am I nervous? It's just my room, it's not like we're sleeping in one room right?" Thana grabbed the door knob and opened it.
A manly smell welcome her, the room is so manly. It's covered with black, the curtains and the walls. Not even a sunlight can be seen, she don't want to assume something.
She don't want to trust her instinct and believe that this is her room, but her baggages are there. She saw a cabinet, she went there slowly and opened it.
The cabinet is full of white dress shirts and black t-shirts, she becomes more nervous at what she saw.
She went to a door, she opens it and it's a bathroom. The bathroom is full of man's things, from a black toothbrush to an aftershave.
"No!" Thana shakes her head not believing what she saw " WE CAN'T SHARE A BEEEED!"
