Meet Again

Elena toss on the bed and felt herself in a warm embrace. She opened her lids slowly and saw Darren grinning mischievously. Recalling what happened last night, she blush and turned to face the other side of the room.

Darren didn't stay too long because he was going to work today.

"Elena, good morning, Dora told me you wanted your hair short," Darren confirmed. Though he didn't like the idea, he would let her if that's what she want.

Elena sat up on the bed and picked her whiteboard.

[Yes. Don't you like it?]

Darren smiled and cup her face gently, "If that's what you want you can do it," he advised.

Elena tilt her head and keep staring at him. Darren shut his eyes tightly before opening it, "You should stop staring at me like that Elena or I'll kiss you," Darren said between gritted teeth.

Elena flush again as her face heated up [Do you like my long hair?]

"Yes. I love it," Darren said honestly and help her stand on the floor.

[You're leaving for work soon?]

"Yes. Would you like to escort me?" Darren asked as they step out of the room.

Elena eyes brighten up at the thought of escorting him. She also wanted to see his working place and the city.

Before Darren could say anything, she skipped into the bathroom with bouncing legs.

Smiling to himself Darren step out of the room to find the butler standing outside.

Darren narrowed his eyes at him because it was rare for the butler to stand outside the room. Though butler Jan was an easygoing man, he was the most loyal person Darren ever met.

"What is it Jan?," Darren asked while walking back to his room.

Jan who was behind Darren hesitated before he opened his mouth. "Ms Vivian's in the living room."

He was shocked to find Vivian outside the mansion when he went out to examine the cars in the garage.

Darren halt in his steps and spun on his heels to face the butler.

"What's she doing here?" He was irritated.

"She only said she won't leave until she speaks to you," butler Jan tried to reason with Darren in the matter.

Darren was furious and didn't want again, he continued walking towards his room and half yelled "Then she could enjoy her morning there," and stormed into his room.

Vivian had always been the most sweetest person he ever met when they were children. She was the quiet and generous type, a humble soul and that was why he was still her friend till date but now, it seems she was taking their friendship in another direction.

.

Elena happily step out of her room and head for the staircase. Darren would be waiting for her by now.

Butler Jan who was standing some feet's away from the couch b

Vivian was sitting saw the girl walking down the stair.

He quickly rush to her so Vivian won't see the guest but his hasten movement caught Vivian's eyes.

Last night was the worst night for her. All her plans failed fatally and the media almost choked her with questions when the CEO didn't appear.

She was damned to her bones and angrily came to Darren's mansion to find out why he didn't show up. He made her loose face in public and snickers of her rivals filled her ears.

Sitting quietly on the couch, the butler suddenly walk towards the stair and seems to be in a hurry. Vivian thought Darren was the one the butler saw and she stood from the couch but the next sight that behold her was a girl white shirt and black jean shorts.

Vivian froze on the spot as her face turn white and stiff. She had always doubted Darren with a woman, she didn't want to believe he has someone he loves.

"Elena please go back to your room. I'll inform you when Darren's out," butler Jan whispered but Elena remained unmoved.

She was surprised and wanted to ask him why but her whiteboard wasn't with her.

Vivian stare jealously at the girl. She was right all this time but she doubted herself. The girl was really the one who poured ice cream on her and that maidservant...

Vivian clenched her hand into a fist. All her angers were forced into her fist, the skin on her hand turning red as blue veins pop out of her head.

Elena was about to head back when she saw Darren walking towards her. She couldn't stop gazing at him. His stance was composed, his well tailored black suit matched his white creamy skin, his black hair added to his handsomeness. So serene and alluring.

Her fair and smooth short legs was what caught his lazy eyes. She wore a white shirt, black jean shorts and a and a snickers.

Darren inhaled sharply and came to stand at her front. His eyes twinkling with mirth.

He lean and whispered in her ear, "you look so beautiful and alluring, girl," Darren chuckle.

Elena. pouted her lips and hug him. Darren smiled and patted her head, if course he knew Vivian was down there.

Vivian's patient dropped to a freezing temperature, they had been displaying affection so deeply and Vivian felt bile in her throat.

"Darren?" Vivian's voice broke the peaceful moment. She couldn't watch this, her heart shattered tremendously and her body shook with pulsating anger.

Darren and Elena disentangled from the hug and turned to find a lady standing inside the living room because they were still on the staircase.

The seconds she noticed that familiar face, Elena swiftly hid behind Darren. How could she forget this lady and what is she doing here?"

" Darren why did you promised me and then failed to attend the celebration," Vivian was struggling not to yell at him.

Darren's lips twitched and he pulled Elena to his front."I'm sorry I didn't attend the party because I was having a good time with my woman," Darren said shamelessly.

"Let me introduce her, Vivian this is Elena," he acted the best and continued yesterday.

None of the ladies were smiling at each other. One was staring at the other with a jealous and bitterness. and the other, with a wary and dissatisfied.

Darren smoothen the frown on her forehead and peck her on the lips.

"Don't worry about minor things," said Darren.
