(She likes him,
But he’s cold-hearted)
Episode 37

Cali’s Pov:
“T….Thank you” I forced myself to say and
he just nodded and turned back to the
food.
He opened the pot and my eyes beamed at
the sumptuous sight in front of me.
Wow!
Everything was so steamy and appetizing.
“Seems our meal is ready” he said as he
turned off the gas and i felt my mouth
water from the sight.
He reached for a big plate and poured in
some of the meal, making sure it filled the
plate.
Wow! It was steaming hot and looked
d@mn delicious.
He covered the pot afterwards and placed
them plate on a tray.
Hold on…why’s it just one plate? Does he
want me to starve, huh? I was so hungry.
Surprisingly, he took two spoons and fixed
them into the tray.
Huh?? Two spoons on the same tray?
“Come on” he said and started walking out
of the kitchen with the tray while I followed.
We returned to the bedroom and he placed
the tray on the small dining in the room -a
small table with two opposite chairs.
“Sit” he said more like in an order and I
slowly sat opposite him.
He was sitting on the other end of the
table.
He fixed the spoon into the hot meal and
started eating.
O…kay.
so, what am I to do??
“Don’t just stare at me, Cali. Go on and
eat”‘ he said with an eye roll and I cringed.
Whaaaaat???
Did he just….
Hold on; he wants me to eat with him???
I stared at him for a while, mostly as he
ate so neatly and perfectly. And not
wanting him to repeat himself,
I took up my
spoon and began eating.
I was eating with the King!!!
I took in a spoonful and was abacked by its
taste.
Geez!!!
Did a boy really cook this????
If not for the fact I was there in the kitchen
with him, I’d have doubted it.
“Tastes good, huh?” He asked with a smirk.
“Um….yes. Really good sir” I replied with
flushed cheeks.
“Stay around me and you’ll be a perfect
cook” he said and my eyes beamed.
stay around him????
For real??
But….
That reminds me..
This was going to be my last day working
as his personal maid.
“Sir” I called after a while.
“After today, I won’t be coming over again,
Right? I mean…my punishment is over,
right?”
He was silent and took in some gulps of
water.
He continued eating like I hadn’t say a
word and just when I was about repeating
myself, he answered.
“Yeah”.
Was his simple reply.

Miquel’s Pov:
It hurt.
It hurt when she mentioned it.
For the past three days, I’d almost
forgotten what it felt like to be lonely.
I’d finally found someone to talk to,
someone yo be around me.
But too bad, today might be the last day I
get to see her.
Although, it wasn’t difficult getting
someone to stay with me. It wasn’t difficult
getting a bi*ch to keep me company for as
long as I want. As a matter of fact, 98%9
of the ladies in the institute were ready to
die for such opportunity.
But I didn’t want any of them. I h@tëd being
around cheap people who didn’t worth my
time.
But this lady…..Cali.
Why do I feel different about her? I never
get tired of her company.
And at some point, I asked myself;
Was she working as my maid because I
was tryna punish her? Or because I really
needed her around?

Cali’s Pov:
After eating, I cleared up the place, washed
the dishes and returned to the room to find
Miquel at the balcony.
What else would he want me to do for him,
huh? I hadn’t even taken my bath.
Although….I really enjoyed staying with him
and wished I could stay longer. Just
that….his cold attitude could freeze
someone to death.
I went out to the balcony and stood beside
him as he gazed into space.
Wow! What a lovely sight.
I could see the other tall buildings in the
institute. And come to think of it, the
institute was quite beautiful.
“Sir…” I called after a while.
Why’s he acting quiet, huh?
“Is there something else you want me to
do for you?”
He didn’t say a word immediately and
sighed.
“Can you quit the formalities? You can call
me Miquel” he said and my jaws dropped.
Huh????
I should call him by his name?
I stared at him speechlessly, unable to
utter a word.
“You really wanna leave, huh?” He asked
after a brief silence and I nodded.
Oh….hold on;
Do I really want to leave?
Go0sh!
Its just that….I feel so nervous when I’m
around him.
But….I really really do like him a lot. And….I
always feel lucky being around him.
Just that…he makes me sooo nervous. So
nervous i wanna pee on my p*nt.
I still couldn’t believe he f!ngered me the
previous day.
“What if I ask you to stay…..longer?” He
asked and came closer to me.
Huh??
I moved back and found myself leaning on
the barriers of the balcony.
I feared I might fall off.
“What if I don’t want you to leave, Cali?”
His voice was so cold but soft and he
stood very close to me that I could feel his
breath on my face.
He placed his both hands on the barrier
beside my waist and I flinched.
What’s he doing?
“S..sir….Miquel” i stuttered and gulped
nervously.
He brought his face close like he wanted to
kss me, but curved and leaned on my ear.
“I know you like me” he whispered, sending
shivers down my spine.
“I like you too. And I want you, Cali. I want
you to be mine”.
