Hazel’s p.o.v
Dreams hotel was a five star hotel, only the rich goes there and by rich I mean the stinkingly rich people.
I have never been there before and me been here was still like a pleasant dream I wouldn’t want to wake up from.
He parked the car at a free space at the parking lot beside another obviously expensive black car.
“There he is?” The driver called to my attention, his gaze directed towards the entrance of the hotel.
It was madrigal in the most stylish black, diamond-studded three piece suit I’ve ever seen.
His shiny deep brown hair was neatly shaved at the sides and the part left unshaved but neatly trimmed was made to fall but not completely on the shaved area so that the shaved part was still visible. His new hairstyle looked just so perfect on him.
Before I knew it, he already reached us and opening the door on my side, I could see him go completely speechless for a while.
“You look dazzling.” He held my hands which I had on my lap in his with his dark grey eyes carefully searching mine.
“Aww… thank you.” I said bashfully.
“Nice new hair cut.”
He chuckled at my compliment.
“Do you like it?”
“Apparently. It looks perfect on you and the suit too.”
“You sure?” He laughed.
“Yass.”
“Okay then, thanks.” He then kissed the back of my hand.
“Let’s go in.”
“Alright.”
He gave me his hand to take.
“Martins told me you needed to help a client of yours from France settle down at a hotel.”
“Yeah, I’m sorry I couldn’t make it to pick you up myself.”
“It’s okay.”
The two well built security men in black overall with guns strapped unto their sides at the entrance bowed a little to us as we walked in.
“Hope you had fun with your friend.” He asked.
I had told him that morning that I would be going out to have fun with Annabel after we both get off work that day before it would be time for where he said he would be taking me to, but she couldn’t make it and I had to go to my parents place alone.
“She couldn’t make it. She said her dad suddenly called up a family dinner.”
“Is that true?”
“Yeah, but she said she should be able to make it tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow is also not too late. And Amy, she didn’t disturb you with too much talk, right?”
“Maybe a little.”
“I see, after promising she wouldn’t. She’s actually the daughter of one of my dad’s childhood friends, Mr Rodriguez.”
“Oh! I know Mr Rodriguez, he was present on Maxco’s thirtieth anniversary. I didn’t know she was his daughter. She’s really good at her job though.”
“No doubt.”
We stepped into the elevator and he punched in the floor number we were heading to.
I was in a state of nostalgia the very moment we stepped in.
My mind drifted back to the day we both got into the elevator together after getting off work on the day I got juice spilled on my blouse, the only difference was that today, we were no longer a boss and a secretary but a couple.
“Thank you so much madrigal.”
“For what?”
“For everything.”
“Like I’ve always said, you deserve more than all this.”
His words got me speechless.
“Don’t you kind of feel like this had happened before?” He asked.
“Mmm.” I nodded with a smile.
“So if I may ask when did you actually started liking me?”
“Maybe right from the moment I set my eyes on you in my office.”
“That can’t be true.”
“But it is true.”
“Oh, I never thought…” I stopped talking.
“Really I-” I shook my head with disbelieve.
“You seem so surprise.”
“I really am surprise.”
We stepped out of the elevator once it stopped and continued down a brightly lit hallway.
I was going to open my mouth to say something before what I saw ahead didn’t allow the words to leave my mouth.
