Deer Eyes ( Christian Geoff)

.

Chris could no longer think clearly. Not by how Vania conquered all the passions she endured. Slowly he tried to return to his senses. And keep Vania away carefully. Take Vania's hand behind her shirt.

"I think it's wrong ..." murmured Chris.

Chris knew he shouldn't have said that, not after he got carried away. Chris tried to swallow his saliva. There was a slightly bitter taste at the base of his throat, as he watched Vania duck down.

Chris tried to grab the side of the face so that the girl would not duck anymore. Rub it gently with your thumb. Chris you don't know what the right word is to make Vania's mood better.

"How about we go inside first. To the apartment you mean me." Chris didn't mean anything. He just wanted to let go of the awkwardness between them after the kiss earlier.

Chris' words apparently brought back Vania's smile. The girl's face looked brighter than before. Vania looks excited to open the car door leaving Chris who gulps before exiting as well.

Although their hands clasped each other as they walked towards the elevator. They are unable to look at each other. Vania with her nervousness. And Chris with his misgivings.

.

The thing Chris realized when he entered into Vania's apartment was to see that the room was almost empty. No furniture or wall decoration. There is no shoe rack or anything that indicates if there is life in the house.

Chris glanced through Vania's room. A small mattress is placed on the floor. Next to the mattress lay a suitcase that came out, as well as some shoes that were scattered.

Chris raised his eyebrows, he had visited Vania boarding house with several other employees when he saw Vania who was sick first. And the neat and beautiful boarding room was very lame with the condition of the apartment that Chris gave him.

Chris looked at Vania who was suddenly hitting him and tried to drop Chris' body into the mat that felt thin. Chris could certainly resist and hold his own body. But he didn't want to hurt Vania, so he let his body land quite painfully.

"Sir Chris ! Sick huh?" Vania looks worried about the loud noise produced by their bodies.

Chris laughed softly at it. Quite amused by the situation that Vania created.

"You're why Van, hey .." Chris murmured quietly. He sat on the mat. Looking at the cute red face of Vania.

"That's ... Nia ...." Vania responded to Chris.

"Why should you hurry? What if you get hurt? What if I get hurt?" chris said again.

"I'm sorry Mr.." said Vania lirih.

"Before we do anything, I want to ask you about this first ...." Chris raised his arm. Gesture if she points at Vania's entire apartment.

"Yes?" asked Vania while tilting her head.

"Why is this empty gini?" ask Chris again.

"I haven't bought furniture yet, sir."

"From the old kosan? Haven't you moved?" asked Chris curiously.

Vania avoided her eyes. It always was if Chris discussed his former residence. Chris took a breath. What happened in that room.

"okay ... Later on vacation, I'll take you shopping, "broke Chris.

Vania was stunned, why was this boss so considerate of her? What Chris felt about him. Vania couldn't guess the contents of Chris' head. As Vania knew, her boss always looked calm under any circumstances. That was why Vania was so disinclined by him.

Vania gulped, she shouldn't have done this to Chris. To this kind-hearted man whom he had always secretly admired. But Vania can't back down. He wanted to take away his bad memories by realizing his fantasies.

"Why?" ask Vania slowly. "Why is Mr. Chris so good at Nia?" asked Vania couldn't help it anymore.

Chris was silent, he did not immediately answer the question. Chris actually also feels strange and confused by his attitude lately on Vania. For six years Vania was his secretary, never did Chris expect to touch Vania as intimately as she is today.

But finally Chris knew the answer, he withdrew his hand again to caress Vania's face. His rough fingers touched Vania's soft cheeks. Tracing the cheeks up to his chin.

Chris smiled as his index finger touched Vania's lower lip. His sharp eyes intensely watched the expression that Vania displayed.

"That's because you're Nia ... You and the demon you brought," whispered Chris quietly.

Yericho was finally able to rest in the doctor's room. After persuading Rio's mother to come home, under the pretext of Nicholas will look after Rio tonight. Of course, the real Joana would do that and Rio's mother knew enough that Yericho was lying. But he did not seem to have time to argue, as there were already many guests waiting for him at home.

Yericho checked his phone and the only person who contacted him was Alexa. The girl told me excitedly what she was doing all day to Yericho. Yericho gave a small smile looking at the photos the girl had sent.

Slowly his smile was gone, as he read one message from his ex-wife. Again, the woman did not allow Yericho to take their child on school holidays.

Damnit. Bail Yericho in the heart. Did she forget that she was the father of her child? Yericho took a breath and exhaled slowly. Trying to calm down.

Jericho began to rise from his seat and intended to go home. He's feeling tired today. The patient is not as much as yesterday.

Yericho went downstairs and met Nicholas who was smoking in the parking lot. His friend looked a little suspicious because he was flirting around.

"What meda?" ask Yericho wonder.

"Wait me?" ask Jericho again.

"Where may I wait for you" replied Nicholas casually.

"So, Monica's home yet?" Nicholas asked more of himself.

Yericho shrugged his shoulders slightly. He shook his head and started smiling as well.

"Isn't there now a technology called the telephone?" syndir Yericho, considering when Nicholas lectured Rio about it.

"Damn it, remember that?" Nicholas laughed softly. He pulled out his phone and started typing messages.

"Where are you going?" nicholas asked finally, after seeing Yericho stuff his bag into the trunk of the car.

"Come home?" yericho answered in a question.

"What is the answer. Choose one, you handsome guy," Nicholas said, glancing.

Yericho laughed again. "Rome ..." said Yericho.

"To the house?" Nicholas asked like a fool if only open Jericho interlocutor.

"Where else?" goda Yericho's.

Nicholas smiled wryly looking at the face of Yericho who looked cunning in his eyes.

"To a place that is comfortable and does not hurt" Yericho said half-jokingly.

Nicholas clucked, he looked annoyed to hear Jericho say that.

"I told you. Move." Nicholas pressed the last word.

Nicholas wondered why all his friends were so stubborn. But he couldn't force them either. It is up to them to face what life is like.

Yericho still smiled in response to Nicholas. She finally left the man she said was in love.

Yericho turned his steering wheel and went to Alexa's apartment. A short stop might improve his mood.

Yericho is right, coming to Alexa can make the day better. When she opened the door, Alexa was dancing in front of her phone camera. He may not have realized Yericho was coming. Or intentionally not paying it off.

As their eyes met, Alexa laughed and ran across the room and jumped into Yericho's arms.

"Daddy ..." whispered Alexa in the middle of the noisy music.

"Yes?" Yericho smiled and tightened his arms so that Alexa would not fall.

"Welcome ..." whispered Alexa again.

Yericho laughed and carried Alexa on his lap. Tonight, Yericho wishes he didn't have to go home.
