EPISODE 22
"Pen.." Richard called me lowly while I
just stood still and stared back at him.
Olivia looked back and forth between the two of us before saying.
"do you guys happen to know each
other before?"
"uhm.. Wh-what are you doing here"
Richard asked slowly and I snapped out
of my blank reverie. "i-i'm here to check out the apartment
for rent." I replied, like we knew each
other and nothing ever happened to us.
"what about you what are you doing
here?" I asked and tilt my head
suspiciously. "I'm he-- "he's here to see me" Olivia interrupted
him, and he glanced at her before
turning back to me,
Leo walked closer to me and whispers in
my ear. "i didn't know your boyfriend
has gotten another girlfriend's so fast" I turned to Leo and glared at him, but he
just smiled and looked away.
I turned back to Richard who was
currently glaring at Leo, but Leo just kept
smiling at him. "so, you said you're here
to check out the apartment for rent right?" Olivia asked and I faked smile
and nodded at her.
I'm not in the mood for smiling right now
cause I feel like my ex Fiance has either
be cheating on me before we got
married with this girl or has easily moved on after breaking the marriage
with this girl, but either way I'm jealous.
Because my heart still loves him. And I
hate that, but I can't let him see that, if
he's moved on, then I've moved on too.
"well what do you think, do you like the apartment?" Olivia asked.
"yeah" I breathed out.
"Yay! I hope you get it, cause we're
gonna be neighbors" Olivia said happily,
she's jovial and free spirited, so this is
the kind of girl Richard went for. "yeah I hope so too" I seethe.
The huge front door of the building
suddenly opened and a middle aged
woman walked in dressed in all red.
"Mrs. Aleksey," Olivia grinned at the
woman and waved her hand happily at her. The woman rolled her eyes and
turned to talk to a man who suddenly
called her.
"that's Mrs Aleksey, the owner of this
place" Olivia whisperered to me. Oh
she's the landlady. And Aleksey, Is she Russian or
something.
"well I better go talk with her, cause
she's actually here for me" I tell Leo and
Olivia and ignored Richard's Stare
towards me, his girlfriend is right beside him, he should stop looking at me that
way before she gets suspicious.
Just as I was about to walk away
Richard called me. Making me turn back
to him. "yes" I said boldly and sternly.
"can we talk?" he said lowly. Talk!??.. Talk about what???
"yeah, sure" I said calmly not wanting to
cause a commotion or let his new
'girlfriend' get suspicious. I turned to
walk to Mrs Aleksey but Richard called
me back. "Pen, can we talk like right now.?"
"I have to meet Mrs Aleksey first" I tell
him. "please." he said with pleading
eyes. "okay, but you better make it
quick
cause I'm not loosing this place" I said and he nods. I sighed and turn back to
glance at Mrs Aleksey, I hope she won't
be mad if I run a little late. Leo suddenly
place his hand on my shoulder and I
looked at him. "don't worry I'll help you
meet with Mrs Aleksey" he said and I smiled a little
"really?" I asked.
"yeah," he nods. "thanks, and please
while talking to her, If the apartment
price is bigger than
what I can afford please just cancel it" I said and he nods.
"got it." he said and walked away, bless
him for he is so nice. I turned to Richard
who watched as Leo walked away, and
sighed.
Richard snapped out of his glaring state and turned to Olivia .
"Olivia, can you please give us some
privacy" Richard said sweetly to her
"sure thing Richie" she said happily and
walked to me. Richard sighed and took a
step closer to me but not too close. "hi" he said breathlessly
"hi?" I repeated. Is this guy okay or what. "okay spill whatever you want to say
to me, Leo can't really tell Mrs Aleksey
what's in my mind you know" I said and
fold my hands. "Leo? Oh that's his name" Richard
breathed out. "yeah, seriously are you
going to talk or waste my time" I asked
and tucked my
hair behind my ear,.. "okay fine, I've
seen you moved on" he started. So he doesn't want me to move on ?
"what are you talking about, you've
moved on too, Olivia's a sweet person" I
said calmly and he looked at me
awkwardly.
"Olivia?" he said, "yeah, aren't you two dating" I asked.
"no.. No Olivia and I are just friends". He
breathed out. "yeah right." I said
sarcastically, rolling
my eyes.
"no I'm serious, I met her like a week ago and she's been clinging to me since
then," Richard tells me and I sighed.
"look Richard, you don't have to explain
what she is to me okay! Nothing is going
on between us" I said and gesture my
hand back and forth between us. "I'm sorry.." he apologized.
What is he apologizing for?? "Rich. I don't
know what you're apologizing for, but
please for once can I
not get the word 'I'm sorry' from you
anymore, let's just be Normal people from Breek who happens to know each
other so well,. now if you excuse I'll be
going to Leo now" I said calmly and
turned.
"Pen.
He called and I paused and turned with a sigh,. "Leo. Is he your boyfriend" Richard
breathlessly asked,. "what do you
think?" I shrugged and walked away.
Just as I was getting close
to Leo and Mrs Aleksey, Mrs Aleksey
smiled at Leo before walking out of the building,.. Why is she living, what did Leo
said to her?, did she know that I'm the
one who wants to rent out the
apartment!!
I quickly walked briskly to Leo who
smiled seeing me. "oh finally you're here" he said.
"yeah. Why Is Mrs Aleksey leaving I
didn't have the chance to talk to her," I
said breathing heavily.
"calm down, I talked to her" he said..
"yeah I know I told you to do so, what did she say?, how much is the place?" I
asked inquisitively. Leo sighed and
brought a paper out of his pocket and
placed it in front of my
eyes, "this is the price of the apartment"
he said and my eyes almost burst out when I saw the price. "th-this is bigger
than me I can't afford this" I said still
looking at the paper he placed in my
hand.
"and this is your receipt" Leo said and
brought another paper out of his pocket placing it in my hands.
"a receipt for the apartment??" I blurted
out. "but I...
"don't worry the apartment's under your
name I just helped with the money" Leo
interrupted me and I gasped softly, Don't tell me he payed for my
apartment. "y-you payed??" I asked to
be sure.
"yeah" he replied sternly,
"but I can't afford this, and how can I
pay you back?" I said lowly, What if he deducts it from my salary,
then that's two months pay, I'm
doomed.
"you don't have to pay me back" he said
with a serious face.
"why?" I asked, even though it's cliche to ask why, I just can't help but know why.
"because I don't want you to, don't
friends help each other everyday?" he
said with an arched eyebrow.
"they do.. But Leo, this is two much, with
this kind of amount you payed for four years?" I said calmly cause this is crazy.
"Pen, this is no big deal, I've bought
houses and cars for some of my friends
so this is no big deal" he said and I
suddenly remained quiet.. This is not
only crazy, but awkward, he's way too nice and helpful and that just makes me
feel.., Ugh.. I don't even know how it
makes me feel but I know somehow I
should be described as, lost, confused,
pleased, and awkward right now.
"a thank you would be fine." he said suddenly breaking me and my inner
thought's conversation.. "oh sorry,..
Thank you" I breathed out
and he smiled. "that's more like it"
"Penelope!!" Olivia's voice called happily
behind me and I turned swiftly, "did you get it, did you get the
apartment?" she asked. "yeah" I smiled.
"we're gonna be neighbors" she
squeaked happily and pulled me into a
hug. She let's go of me and turned to
Richard, "heard that Richie?, she got the apartment" Olivia said happily. "I have to
go" Richard said to Olivia and
walled away..
"Richie, come back! You haven't tried the
cookies I made for you" Olivia yelled and
trailed behind him. "is it time to leave or are you waiting for
Richard to come back and kiss you or
what?" Leo asked and sighed.
"let's leave, I've seen and heard enough
today," I breathed out Leo and I walked
out of the building.. We got back into his car and he turned
on the ignition and start to drive,
"so.. When are you going to start moving
in?" he asked.
"I don't know, maybe tomorrow or the
day after, but Leo thank you. ..so much" I said lowly. "don't mention" he smiled,
I received a text from Mason and I
talked a while with him about getting
the apartment with the help of Leo and
what he said left me thinking. *are you
sure he's not doing all this for another reason* Mason texted.
*what reason?* I texted back.
*never mind* he sent back to me and
that's how our conversation ended.
What reason? I asked myself but shook
that outta my head. After being quiet with Leo in the car for a
while we finally got to my house and I
couldn't wait to get inside and throw
myself on the bed, cause I'm so
exhausted. And maybe a little heavy at
the heart for seeing Richard. I got down from Leo's car and thanked
him several times ..
"okay, I'll see you at work tomorrow" he
smiled. "okay" I smiled back and waved
a little
before he drove away.. And making me turn and walk inside.
*
——LEO'S POV——
I drove my car back to my car and just
kept sighing cause everything suddenly
feels empty and black as Penelope left, even if she was just focused on her
phone, I still felt the company she
occupied. During this past few days,
she's been the only one I've been with
and talk with and I've become really
fond of her, sometimes when she's at work it feel like she should just stay at
the mansion with me and not go home.
Not that I want or need her romantically
in my life, I just need someone, anyone
with me cause loneliness is a disease..
And getting her this apartment with my own money, is really nothing cause I can
do more for he than she can expect.
I got back to my mansion and before
entering inside I sighed like a zillion
times cause it seems like I'm about
living my disease.. I packed my car and got inside the
mansion, I was about typing my house
password, but it seems like my door
was a little bit open already. I opened
the door slowly and walked in, I think
someone broke into my house.. I walked close to the couch hearing light sobs
coming from there. And when I found a
red hair stiletto heels and over glossed
lips on my couch I called. "harmony?"
She quickly turned to me and I was
shocked to see tears crawl out of her eyes and her mascara was already
scattered by the tears which made
some of her face black,, "Leo." she cried
and flew into my body
and gave me a hug I stood still surprised
by her act, but slowly hugged her back, Incase she's looking for comfort.
"Leo. I'm sorry, I really am, please I
want us together again, I missed you"
she cried on my shoulder..
