Capítulo 10: Faint
"Mei, how are you?"
Christ asked while patting my shoulder and standing by my side. This gesture made everyone stare at us, ready for some juicy gossip.
Ugh what should I say?
I don't know, my brain is slowing down, everything is just so misleading to say…
Fine, let's hope I don't fuck us up anymore.
I smiled brightly at him and took a step back, "I am fine, sir. Sorry for bothering you yesterday with me, I hope my car will be fixed soon?"
His face twitched, amusement and something else was dancing in his dark eyes.
Glancing around discreetly, I added, "I didn't know my car would break on me just right after the audition. I'm truly thankful for you to send another car for me."
Wow that was…
Smooth, I know. Those assholes are lessening these motherfucking gazes too.
Umm… You swear quite a lot nowadays, I am glad this isn't reflected in your language with the people around.
Don't worry, those words are only for your little pretty ears.
…Whatever I guess.
Just when I wanted to be happy about my achievement, Christ smirked. He patted my head this time and gently rebuked me,
"I told you to call me Chris with no 'sir' or whatsoever. As for the car, you do not need to worry about it. The car from yesterday is currently written under your name."
Ugh why are you mentioning that?! Those gossipers will never leave us alone now! But wait, what was about the car just now-?
Huh? I don't remember seeing anything. Oh, he's probably just covering up my lie. But why in this way? Haaa…
"In addition to that, you can tell me anything you want to adjust about the chalet. It is now yours."
Hmm?
"Excuse me?"
I asked with my eyes wide open. What the, no no, he must be joking.
Seeing my expression, he laughed. That laugh made many women around me swoon, but for me, I only wanted to run away.
I just felt it was dangerous.
And I wasn't wrong, he soon clarified, "Your new chalet. I wrote it under your name as compensation for all of the trouble you had to go through."
No way, this man, this man, oh how much I want to kill him…
Calm down, you're in public…
Hmm? So, am I allowed as long as it was in private?
….
Thought so.
I racked my brain for any ideas but I found nothing. I was unable to deny that or even question it here, who knows what this bastard may say if I questioned him?
Just wait until we're in private, you damned man.
For now, let's change the topic.
"Sir I think it would be better to discuss these matter with Sir Christ-"
"Christ."
Ugh! Shut up for a minute, please!
It's fun seeing you lose your mind like this.
That damn girl… Just you wait, Alice; I ain't giving you control for days!
….
"Ahem, yes, please talk about the details with Chris. I suppose that would definitely be for the better."
The Auteur Diam nodded without any hesitation and grabbed Christopher's arm and my wrist, dragging us into his office.
But sir, I thought you would take him away from me… This is some serious betrayal.
I cried bloody tears internally while ignoring the gaze of Christ on me. This man surely is going to get a hit from me, that smirk in itself is so annoying.
Actually. He wasn't truly annoying. More like I got fed up with my efforts being tossed around. Maintaining this so-called reputation was tiring.
But I most likely should calm down.
Oh, you think?
Yes, I'm getting too agitated for my own good.
It's not the first time.
Exactly for that. Huuu…
I felt a little dizzy again, this body was too much against me. It was hard to keep up without losing my sanity, or to be more specific, my rationality.
Maybe that was the real reason for me being such a quick fuse today.
I tried to not pay attention to that anymore and sat down quietly in the office. The two actively talked about me, about my future opportunities, and about my career as a whole alongside what was the best for me.
I wanted to doze off.
Their words merged together, hazy, blurred in my head. That was difficult and dizzying. Why was I like this today?
Wait Mei, did you even eat?
Huh?
…You forgot to eat, do you know how many hours had passed since we last ate?
Hmm, I don't remember… But probably hours, why?
I didn't see why she was asking, like, what was the point? I'm not okay mmm…
Don't you understand why are you dizzy now?
Oh.
My god. Don't 'oh' me, Mei. Leave here and eat something before we suddenly faint. No wonder our body was reacting like that.
Ugh she was right, I could never deny that. I got up to my feet, fighting the urge to sit back again with how my world was swaying, and slightly bowed my head.
Shit shit shit! I can literally feel myself almost falling like this.
I cut off their chat and excused myself, "Well sirs, I'd need to go for a bit… I have a bit of an urgent matter I suppose."
"Hmm? What do you mean by 'I suppose'?"
Chris didn't miss the chance to grab me, unknowingly increasing my discomfort. I really feel so faint now…
"Yeah… I think I'm a bit not okay? I don't remember the last time I ate…"
"Oh no!" Diam exclaimed and forced me to sit down again, "You shouldn't move, then! I can ask people to come here and bring you some food."
I nodded, but that only shot me with another wave of dizziness. I needed to stay silent for a bit, and the next thing I knew, I was in some strong arms.
Strangely enough, my dizziness didn't hit despite the sudden movement. Chris held me securely and said something that I was unable to hear to Auteur Diam, but I didn't want to ask now.
Mmm… I need those strong arms around me more often.
"I'll take you back to the chalet and assign a few maids for you, it was my inconsiderateness that caused you this."
Well… That was not exactly true, like, at all.
"I probably wouldn't eat anyway… I have been feeling out of it since morning."
I whispered softly while feeling everyone's gaze at us when we left, but I don't care anymore. I just want to have this slight comfort.
It was nothing to ask for, right?
"Close your eyes, when you wake up, everything will be alright. And I mean, everything."
No, I don't get it… My eyes are so heavy though, I suppose I can only follow…
Whatever were you going to do and for whatever reason, thank you, Chris…
I suppose I can finally rest without keeping my guard up for a bit.
