38 Short Break (1/2)

YVE's POV

When I felt something on my forehead, I heard Vince's voice. Because I can feel his breathing close to mine, I decided not to wake up yet until he finished what he wanted to say. Then I can't help but be happy with the precious three words he said, ”I love you.”

At that moment, I decided it was the appropriate time for me to wake up. So I opened my eyes and saw his face. He looked so shocked and shy at the same time. Maybe because he realized he just blurted something out.

”You're awake now.” He said without looking at my eye.

”Yeah. It seems we have arrived already.”

”Hmmm. We should get inside now.” He replied and went out of the car.

I thought he was going to leave me behind because he was embarrassed but I was wrong. Instead, he walked towards my side of the car and opened the door for me. He showed me his hand and waited for me to get out of the car. In return for his courtesy, I accepted his assistance and put my hand on top of his. He lead the way towards his penthouse.

We are now inside the elevator and since I was able to rest for a little bit in the car, I noticed that Ed was not with us.

”Vince, where did Ed go?”

”Oh, I asked him to do some errands.”

”Okay.”

”Why? Do you need him for something?”

”I just wanted him to do two things for me. But the other one can wait.”

”Okay. So what is the urgent one?”

”I wanted him to get some of the pending reports on SkyMu and its ongoing project. But since he is not here anymore, can you tell him tomorrow?”

”I already told him earlier because I knew you would want that. I'll also give you his number so that you can call him anytime.”

What Vince said shocked me. He knew what I was about to say and acted on it. I'm a bit curious if he has any idea on what I'm planning to do with SkyMu.

So I asked,

”Vince?”

”Yes?”

”Do you have any idea on what I'm planning to do?”

”Well, in general I do. But on how you will carry it on? I don't have a slightest idea.”

Then just like that, the elevator door opened and we arrived at his penthouse. Then I was shocked to see Edward there, arranging the papers.

”Hello! Good thing you guys are finally home!” Ed said.

”What are you still doing here? Do you work 24/7 for Vince?” I was in awe as it's already 6pm and most of the secretaries left work already.

”Half true and half false. In medical term, on-call. Vince can call me anytime and ask for my help.”

”Oh.. okay… but were there any instance that he called you late at night or early morning?”

”Want an honest answer?”

”Yes, of course.”

”Hmmmm…. Then yes. He had called me couple of times already. But once everything is settled, he will give me a vacation. When I said vacation, I can leave my work behind. He will not even call me.”

I nodded in response to his explanation. So, Vince is a really good boss. Gray Group is lucky to have him as their boss.

”Yve, shouldn't you change your clothes already?” Vince asked as he walks down the stairs.

I didn't even noticed that he went to his room to change. Right now, he is wearing a light gray shirt paired with a short having the same color.

”You can change upstairs. Mel and Dia left a box with a note. I think it's a pair of sleeping attire but if not, you can just take any apparel you're comfortable with. Ed and I will do some work and cooking as well.”

”Okay. Thanks.”

With that I went up the room and saw the box and Vince was right. Inside the box is a very cute sleeping attire but it looked like a couple pajamas. The pink one has the design of a cute bear and the blue which I think goes for the male has the same print also. Will Vince wear this kind of clothing? I'll just put this inside Vince's cabinet. I immediately went to the comfort room to wash myself up.

”Come one, Yve, let's eat.” It was Ed. He was now sitting on one of the chairs in the dining table while I saw Vince preparing the dish in the kitchen. Inside of sitting down, I decided to help Vince in the kitchen first.

”Wow!! You cooked pasta and even prepared the garlic bread.” I said to Vince.
