章 24: I'll Get You Back
We could see spring, sunshine and flowers everywhere in Bia's house. The couple was really no shame showing their affections in front of the forever miserable lonely single lady in the room.
"Oh, please B.. spare my eyes, my heart and soul.. they are burning, they are as black as soot already.. who said that she's going to be late just now", Kim narrowed her eyes, hands on her hips, ready to tear them apart.
"Stop it Akira..", Bia was trying to end their show.
"Okay, please one last kiss before I start the day", Akira was begging Bia and started to kiss her again.
"Fine.. I'll wait in the car.. just come when you finish". Kim shook her head, turned around and headed to the door. 'Oh, my poor me', Kim said to herself.
**********
If we could feel spring in Bia's place, then... the cold chilly winter enveloped the study room in Grant's house at the moment. The weather had been gloomy and cold since last night, even though the sun has been rising for a couple of hours already but still no sunshine could enter the room, no one dared to lift up the curtains, only the dim light from the hallway was on. Grant had been starring at Bia's photo for who knows how long and with the poor lighting he managed to stare at it. The helpers in the house didn't dare to make a single noise, they've been moving around silently to finish up their works, that included cleaning up the mess in the living room then the study room. Grant turned the house upside down, he never lost his temper to this extent before. He is always a very patient person even though he is a little bit cold sometimes. He didn't lose his temper four years ago when he had to leave Bia, his dream behind, back then his family forced him to sacrifice his happiness. He could endure all the pain when he separated from Bia, endured all the urge to run back to Bia. He could still keep his cool back then but last night was different because when he saw he's losing his Bia, he could not accept that. Well.. he knew that he's a nobody in Bia's eyes anymore. So many times last night he almost snatched Bia and carried her on his shoulder, the cave man style. He hated Kim for stopping him numerous times last night. So he channelled his anger and frustration onto the furnitures in the house, he turned to hulk last night as the helpers called him when they were giggling in the kitchen after the stressful cleaning they did.
"What happened last night? Was the thunderstorm only hit our master's house?", asked one of girl.
"I think our handsome boss turned into hulk", answered the others and they started to giggle.
"Sushh... stop it all of you. Someone might heard that and you will lose your job", said the driver when he entered the kitchen to get some water. The girls panicked when they heard that so they quickly left the kitchen and continued their work.
Back to Grant, he still sitting on the couch with Bia's photo was in his right hand and the wine was in his left hand. He still looked so attractive and even more alluring with messy hair, messy clothes. His secretary literally drooling while checking him up and down, she's one of Grant's loyal fan.
Camilla is Grant's secretary she has been working for Grant since he started his company in Country A two years ago. She had to bring a few documents for Grant to sign so she could finish her tons of other works in the office. Then she knocked the opened door, coughed a few times and entered the room.
"Ehmm, Ehmm.. sorry Boss for disturbing you but I really need you to sign this document, please". Camilla went straight to Grant, put the papers on the table in front him, at last she handed him a pen.
Grant just glanced at her, clapped his hands to switch on the lights in the room then browsed through the documents before he signed them and passed them back to Camilla.
Camilla and the others understood that Grant was not much of a talker so she's ready to go back to the office immediately but Grant stopped her.
"Wait, please clear all my schedules for today and tomorrow".
"Huh.. but Boss, you have a very important meeting tomorrow and..", suddenly Camilla got a headache because she's been preparing for the meeting with that big bank for months.
"You, Tim and the others, please go for that meeting", Grant just cut off her sentence.
"Boss, I'll handle the other meetings but please come for this meeting, it's very..."
"Fine.. what time?", Grant knew Camilla very well, she could handle everything and she hardly asked for anything if not necessary.
Camilla felt relieved after she heard that, "It's 3PM". She answered him and Grant just nodded his head.
"Alright Boss, see you tomorrow", with that she left and headed to the office.
Once Camilla left, Grant took his phone from his pocket and dialled a number, "I want to know everything about Akira Abe as fast as possible". He ended the call without saying goodbye and dialled his mum's number.
"Hi.. Mum, I'll be there in two hours time. I need you and Nicky, we have a problem... I'll tell you the details, okay... love you too, bye".
'Bia, I'll get you back', he said to himself.

"What are you doing here, Erica?", Akira asked her, when he saw Erica was sitting comfortably on the couch in his clinic, she even had a cup of tea and some biscuits on the table, she really made herself at home.
"I'm here to see you darling, I waited for you at home last night but you didn't come".
"Home?" Akira confused with her words.
"Ya, home.. your house is my house, it's ours", Erica came closer to Akira and tried to touch his face but Akira pushed her hand away.
"I see, did you get the keys from grandma?"
Erica felt ashamed because she did asked the keys from Akira's grandma, she kind of begged the grandma for those keys. "Well.. your grandma gave the keys to me and said I should stay with you because I don't know anyone here"
Akira didn't want to hear anything from her so he left the room.
Diane was sitting sorting out some papers when she heard the door opened.
"Diane, can you go to my house and collect my stuff from my housekeeper then send them to this address. I'll find someone else to replace you here", he said that and wrote the address on a piece of paper and passed it to Diane.
"Sure, Doctor", Diane quickly packed her things.
"Thank you so much, Diane. Bye".
"Your welcome, bye."
After asking Diane's help, he called the head nurse to put someone to take over Diane's work for the day. Then Akira gave the housekeeper a call, he asked the housekeeper to packed his clothes and his books.
'One more thing to settle', Akira thought.
"Finally, you came back darling. I was about to go out looking for you." Erica said that when Akira entered the room.
"Erica, I'm working now.. leave." Akira was still holding the door and gave the signal to Erica to leave.
"Don't be mean, I'm your first patient for today. Please check my temperature Doctor," Erica unbutton ed her first button on her blouse.
"You need to check your head and you are in the wrong department. Leave now or I'll call your mother, I'm sure she has no idea that you are here," Akira said.
Erica tidied her blouse, stood up and glared at Akira then she said, "Dont you dare call my mum."
"Why can't I, you used grandma all the time. And grandma still has no clue about what you did to your sister."
"Stop it Akira, you know why I did that. I love you and I'm the only one suitable for you. Not my idiot sister or anyone else. I'll get you back, for sure." Erica went near Akira and whispered those last sentence on his ear.
Akira held her jaw tightly and said, "I've never been yours to get back. Stay away from me and my woman. I couldn't protect your sister last time and I regretted it till today but I won't let you destroy what I have now." Akira threw her out of the room and she fell on the floor.
Erica was so shocked to see how angry Akira was. She had never seen this side of Akira, she couldn't believe that was her Akira. Everyone who was there could see what happened but they were polite enough not too stare at her so the best thing to do was to leave the hospital as fast as possible. She would call Akira's grandma for some advice or plans later.
In the small island, news did travel pretty fast and before the day end, the news already reached Bia's ear.
Bia was in the boutique with Kim and Kim was so excited to retell the story to Bia, "Are listening to me B? I've been talking for nearly fifteen minutes but you are not responding to me."
"I am listening and I'm happy to hear that Akira threw her out but I'm sad because I didn't get the chance to slap her again," Bia slumped to the couch.
"What a cruel couple and I think that woman won't back down easily and on top of that Akira's grandma is on her side," Kim said.
"I'm sure she won't because Akira told me his gandma gave the house key to that woman. And Akira will be staying in his apartment near our house."
"He could stay with you, right?" Kim asked.
"For one night was fine but not everyday," Bia answered.
"Well.. even though both of you spent last night together still nothing happened to both of you anyway."
"Kim," Bia threw the teddy at Kim.
"What, it's true, isn't it."
"Whatever, I'm going to buy some junk downstairs," Bia left Kim alone.
