The Ceo’s proposal

-Son! -She hugs me effusively -You don’t know how much I missed you.

-I thought you were coming on Saturday, not today.

She frowns and tells me if that’s the way to greet her after a year of being away and away from us. She snoops behind me looking for her because she always does the same thing with every girl I was with even though I had never announced a marriage or that I would be a father before since I always said it was better to be alone.

She pushes me aside and comes in asking where the lucky girl was when in reality she just wants to destroy her and get her out of my life, of course that doesn’t apply to my ex girlfriend who decided to leave the relationship since I never proposed to her.

I close the door and follow her behind, when she sees her she stands still for a second and asks me if she was my new maid but I told her no. I said, “No, she was my new maid.

-If you want, let’s call the guard to get this girl out, she’s probably lost?

-Mother. She is the girl I told you about.

She laughs as if she had told a joke.

-You’re kidding me, aren’t you.

I look at her seriously.

-When in my life have I ever told a joke.

-Eros? -She notices our unexpected visit. -And who is this lady?

-You’ve gone mad! -I narrow my eyes as she shouts at me -How is it possible that this… ordinary… girl! God tell me if I’m paying for some sin…

-Stop with the dramatics. -I said tiredly.

-Yes, stop with the drama, ma’am, this is not real, well, the baby is, but the relationship is not.

My mother looks at both of us and says that she doesn’t understand what we are talking about, so I explained to her that everything was a screen so that my father would leave me alone and that he wouldn’t commit the stupidity of leaving everything to my uncle who only wants to sell the company.

-So, if they got married to deceive the others, I don’t understand, then why the baby? Wasn’t the marriage enough?

-You know my uncle, he will do anything to keep everything and with a child on the way, he will have no doubt that this relationship is real.

She says it’s a good idea but a baby is too much, besides, there were many better women than her that she still doesn’t understand because she’s not even in our “category”.

-Ma’am, I’m still here,” she said annoyed, “I don’t know what you are worried about, your son has already told you the truth that this is a show. Once I give birth our agreement ends, besides I would never fall in love with a guy like him.

-A guy like me? What do you mean by that?

-You know very well what I mean. -She smiles sarcastically, “Because so far I’ve only come across guys who think everything revolves around them.

-I don’t know what you mean by that but I assure you that you’re not the kind of woman I want in my life, that’s for sure.

-The feeling is mutual.

She goes to the living room and ignores us, when I see that she’s concentrating more on the series she’s watching than on the discussion we had it pisses me off, this is not going to stay like this, she’s definitely going to take back her words.

-Insensitive jerk.

I can’t believe he’s such a fool to talk like that, I hear them keep talking and of course they mention his ex and of the reaction he had, but without realizing it I got angrier when his mother says it’s a shame he let her go so easily, they would have been the perfect couple and the kids would have been like royalty.

She was belittling my baby just because I am not arrogant and insensitive like them and that made me angry.

-Madam, maybe your idiot son won’t do it but I will, I’m not going to let him belittle this baby just because he carries my blood, and you, tie your pants tightly to defend your son from your mother’s poisonous tongue.

I let out a whimper of pain and this time he reacts by telling me that I better go back to my room, he tried to help me but I didn’t let him because so far he has only shown that we are all his toys that he will soon throw away when he gets what he wants.

-Ha, she’s vulgar on top of that, what else can you expect from someone like her. I don’t want to imagine that child.

-If I told you this is to avoid problems between you, so I will ask you not to be… yourself while you are in this house, okay?

She rolls her eyes and this time she tries to help me and I let her, when she leaves me on my bed I stare at him because sometimes he can be tender, when he proposes it, I didn’t expect him to defend me from his mother but he still did it, without realizing that I was looking at his face for a long time he smiled when he saw that I didn’t stop watching him.

-It’s true that I’m handsome and irresistible but I didn’t think I had that effect on you too.

My cheeks get hot

-I don’t know what you’re talking about, I don’t like you and you’re an arrogant jerk, just… I’m surprised you’re nice, it’s not your style.

-I can be anything you want me to be. -I freeze as he kisses me chastely -But I know when a woman dislikes me and we both know that… I’m not indifferent to you.

My lips tremble as I speak and try to push him away from me by pushing him away but he takes my wrists and repeats the kiss again making my face turn as red as a tomato, I don’t know what the hell he’s up to by kissing me but I’m sure it’s a game to tease me.

-Stop doing it. Kissing me won’t get me to have sex with you. I’m not going to fall for your games.

-Who said I’m playing games? -I open my eyes when I see your intentions -I’m not going to lie to you, I like you Bianca.
