'Where are you? Why didn't you answer my messages?'
Stefan sent another message to Wirata. He did not see her come back to the table. The food was served by somebody else.
His dark eyebrows knotted. She refused to answer his messages. Stefan decided to send a message to his men who were waiting in the car. Stefan asked them to come to eat with him but the two did not want to. They said they already had dinner with his friends at the hotel.
'Wirata isn't replying to my messages. Can you send a message to her to ask where she is? '
Ben opened the message and read it to James.
"Fucking hell! Did you see what I just predicted, Ben? I did warn him not to do this. And he never listened. the situations between him and his missy have been going so well. But look now. I can smell some dead fish."
James immediately complained.
"I told him to go somewhere else. But he's stubborn and wanted to see the face of his love. As you see today all day he wasn't concentrating on his work and counting hours down like a teenager falling in love. He just wanted to come home to spend time with her. And bringing another woman here like this? How would Miss Wirata feel?"
Ben responded in agreeing to James.
'Hey ... why are you two quiet? Talking about me again?! did you send it yet? Ask where she is! I'll go search in the back of the restaurant if she doesn't come out.'
The boss sent another long message. Ben and James wondered if the boss even ate anything yet. After coming back from the office, the boss hurried to take a shower and hurried to come here to surprise his Missy. He did not even eat much during lunchtime as he was on the phone with her for ages.
"Wait a minute, please. I'm working on it, boss."
Ben typed and sent the message. The big boss then was quiet and waiting.
'Where are you, Miss?'
Wirata read the message. It was from Ben.
'Washing dishes.'
She answered him.
'The boss wants to know if you are alright?'
Another message sent from Ben.
'Yes, no need to send messages to me anymore. I'm very busy right now, and I will stay overnight at my mother's house. '
After sending the last one, Wirata decided to turn off the phone. Knowing that his men would report everything to their boss.
Normally, Wirata was a strong woman but tonight, she would allow herself to be a little weak like other women. She was only a small person after all. She could be tough in most situation but Wirata did not have any experience with the heart area so she was on a learning curve. Now she was aware of the word...jealousy. That was the feeling she had right now.
Also, the awareness of the difference between her and Stefan. The backgrounds and the lifestyles they had, seeing Melissa made Wirata realized the dream and the reality was hard to be merged in her case. She was only his temporary woman after all and out there, that lady, she was his reality.
Wirata could not order her tears to stop pouring out. The sad emotional feeling was so overwhelming. It confirmed that she really loved him so much and she could not do anything about it.
Stefan sat and glanced at the phone all the time.
"What's wrong?"
Melissa asked as she had seen Stefan ignored talking and eating. He was typing and reading some messages on his phone. His eyebrows knotted and frowning when reading the texts.
"Some important thing comes up. I'm sorry, Melissa."
The dashing voice replied and still kept looking on the phone screen as if he was waiting for messages.
"Aren't you eating? It's very delicious."
Melissa said. She did not see him touching the food in front of him yet.
"I'm not hungry."
He answered with a hint of irritation in his voice. Melisa sighed before shrugged and continued to eat Pad Thai because the food was really delicious as Stefan told her.
Brrrr-Brrrr...
A message came in. Stefan hurried to read.
'Miss Wirata is washing the dishes. Very busy tonight. She said she would stay over at her mother's house.'
Message from Ben. Stefan immediately made an impatient face. The tall figure stood up
"Excuse me, Melissa. I am going to the restroom. Please order if you need anything more."
Stefan told Melissa and then walked toward the back of the restaurant.
He knew this part of the restaurant as he came in four months ago. Stefan went straight to the utility room. The sound of the dishwasher was running loud in there.
When pushing the door and walked in, Stefan looked around. His heart was sunk and felt heavy when he did not see Wirata in here. But the lady who was standing doing the washing-up at the sink was her mother instead.
