Chapter 19


    Her hand is smallpared to Gideon’s but it was strangely fit for each other. It’s just like now that the


    two of them were holding hands while they were inside his car parked in a slightly hidden part of the


    parking lot. “My flight is almost here,” he told Gideon who still couldn’t let go of his hand.


    His lips protruded into a frown. He had been in her car for almost an hour doing nothing but holding her


    hand and asionally stealing a kiss from her.


    “I was thinking to just pulling you out and training under my wings so that you cannot keep leaving


    whenever you have a flight.” He lightly flicked her piercing nose. “I came here to be a flight attendant.


    Not to be your employee in the office.”


    He yed with her fingers before firmly kissing the back of her palm. “I know,


    Strawberry. I shouldn’t be a hindrance to your dreams.” He looks at her, this time he has a small smile


    on his lips. “What time is your flight? Is it nine-thirty?” 1 “Yes,” she answered and touched the cor of


    his formal white long-sleeve. “I came back here at five in the afternoon. It only takes a few hours.”


    “Yeah, yeah. And I should work in that hour so I can be with youter.”


    She took a deep breath before holding Gideon’s hands. He also caressed her clean jaw before looking


    directly into her eyes. “Let’s eat outsideter,” he invited to which she immediately nodded. The corners


    of his lips are still up and his eyes are twinkling mischievously.


    In normal days, she will tease him or she will flick his forehead because of his naughty thoughts.


    However, that time he just looked at her seriously and caressed her cheek with his hand. 1 “I want to


    tell you somethingter,” “Alright. Whatever it is.”


    He smiled at her and then looked at the wristwatch he was wearing. “I need to go.” He was not


    surprised when he leaned closer to him and then nted a kiss on his lips. “Take care.”


    He nodded and then got out of his beloved car. He took his suitcase from the trunk of his car and then


    smiled at Gideon who was looking at him in his side mirror, They have been dating for almost a week


    now. After what happened between them in Davao, he never let her go. He insisted that they should


    date which she finds strange because nothing really happened to them in Davao. They just kiss and


    make out, until


    just there. He didn’t take her all the way. What the reason was, he didn’t know. He seems to be


    stopping himself that night. He, on the other hand, was slightly ashamed of himself because he knew


    that he was ready to open up when he went all the way with him. 1 And jeez! This time, there is no


    other reason. There is no money involved or mutual intentions. It was pure feelings between them.


    The question is, are there feelings? He does not know! It doesn’t say anything and he doesn’t say


    ? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    anything to it. They fall into a pseudo-rtionship.


    They have but they don’t. They do things that couples do, but they don’t havebels. He didn’t hear


    anything from Gideon, not even a simple ‘I like you’. Even she didn’t tell him that she likes the man


    even though that’s how she feels. In all her life she has never had a boyfriend. He didn’t know how that


    rtionship worked, that’s why he was content with what was between him and Gideon. There is no


    Their rtionship is not a secret but it is private. He hasn’t told anyone yet but he knows his colleagues


    already have a hint because he often catches them gossiping about him. He just shrugged his


    shoulders because he was not affected by it. There is no evidence that she is flirting with CEO Vesarius


    so that he can get a high score in internship


    He noticed themotion in the back. His ssmate was talking to a foreign man. The old man was


    talking in French and it seems that Nika couldn’t understand well what the passenger was saying. He


    understands and can speak a little bit of French because he really stayed upte to read and memorize


    the book that contains the basic Frenchnguage. “Je veux du vin de fraise.


    Pas de café. Je le veux froid et j’use du croissant,” his voice spoke loudly to Nika, who was still


    blinking because the passenger didn’t quite understand what he said due to the speed of his speech.


    “Again, Sir. Do you speak English?” The passenger seemed annoyed because the two could not


    understand each other. “If I am not mistaken, you are asking for wine and croissants, Sir, right?” he


    groaned and grabbed Nika’s arm to tell her that he would back her.! “Ouí,” he nodded which means


    ‘yes’. “This woman does not know how tomunicate well with passengers.”


    “I apologize for that. We are still learning yournguage. We’ll put additional croissants to your request


    forpensation,” he replied patiently to the man. The man seemed satisfied with what he said,


    Nika seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when she left the man’s presence. Thank you for


    this


    him and he said he would free him to get back at him. It is said that they didn’t really study the book


    that they bought so that they can somehow understand the French word even if they can’t speak it. The


    woman is also a working student at night.


    Her days went well. She enjoyed taking care of the passengers and helping them put their luggage at


    the overhead bin wheels. He had three domestic flights that day before five o’clock finally arrived. He


    immediately went straight to their locker room to get his things that were left there. He could feel the


    looks thrown at him by his batch mates who were just across the locker.


    “I won’t be surprised if when the finalse, he has the highest grades search among us. And of


    course, he was immediately epted by thispany.”


    “Are you the one to have a rtionship with the CEO? No longer embarrassed, you really won the


    highest one.” He gave them a nce and one of them immediately turned on him when he saw that he


    was looking at his group.


    He recognized them. That’s what Quincy Mae was looking at in the other section, He didn’t pay


    attention to them, instead, he took the cell phone and turned it on. “Isn’t she a single mother?


    Does she hope that Sir Gideon will be the father of the child?


    him?”


    “Maybe Sir doesn’t know that there is a child. Because it’s flirty.”


    He wants tough at what he hears. If she was the former Lyzza no from high school, she would


    probably have made amends. But Jessica is absolutely right, having a child makes you mature. Then


    again, they just look stupid because Gideon is actually Summer’s daddy.


    “I’m sure, Sir will just throw that away when he gets fed up. Which is not far from happening because


    something is already hanging.” Laugh at them. 1. “Hey, town witches and have a supply of lip balm.


    Why are you gossiping about Ate Lyz again? Is there a fee for that? Are you a millionaire?” Quincy Mae


    snapped, her mouth hanging open again. “Can it, this is not gossip. We are not cheap like you. We’re


    just telling the truth.” “Where’s your proof?”


    He was about to stop Quincy Mae from fighting when the text messages entered his cell phone one


    after the other. Almost everything came from his Mom and Caius. Son, it’s Summer. We rushed to the


    hospital. The fever increased even more, Almost to a derailment.’


    He quickly closed the locker and grabbed Quincy Mae’s arm, who was now tangling with her enemy, to


    wean her off.


    “You have a lot of money, you have no evidence.”


    “I don’t need evidence. I have ears and eyes,”


    “Mama mo eyes.”


    He pulled Quincy away even more because he was embarrassing the other flight attendants who were


    curious about what was happening. There were several seniors so he was even more embarrassed.


    “Those cheap ones!” it still whined and


    stomped. “Don’t fight,” he ordered and quickly left her. He even heard her asking where he was going?


    He was almost running out of the airport. He gged down the first taxi that came by and took him to


    the hospital that his mom texted him. 1 Summer had a


    feverst night. It was gone this morning before he left. He said his mother came back and now her


    baby is almost passing out because of the high fever. His mother and Caius rushed to the hospital. And


    that text was sent three in the afternoon. It’s past five in the afternoon.


    He was restless in his seat and his midwife was constantly in his hand. He was also crying because he


    was so worried about his son. 1 He didn’t get the change from the driver when they arrived in front of


    the hospital.


    He immediately got down and ran inside. The nurse pointed to the room where her son was. When the


    elevator did not open immediately, he went up the stairs, regardless of the high heels of his shoes.


    He was panting when he reached the third floor.


    He put it out of his mind that he doesn’t want to be in the hospital and that he gets panic attacks when


    he’s in it. He quickly looked for Summer’s room number. Without knocking, he opened it only to be


    greeted by three pairs of eyes. To his mom, to Caius and to…Gideon.
