She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 37 - THEY WILL NEVER MEET IN BETWEEN

Cayenne looked at her parents with an incredulous smile on her face. That was the first time she heard that question after so many years. "In love? What the heck is that? Is that something you can eat?" she was being sarcastic but her family wasn't. They were serious in this matter. They wanted to know the truth but it seemed like she didn't know anything about it either.

Kyle coughed exaggeratedly to get their attentions away from Cayenne. He knew that his sister had no time for men because of them but that doesn't mean she didn't like anyone, she just didn't realize it yet. Base on her recent actions, they were certain that there's a man who's slowly changing her.

"Is there someone who's making you a little bit confuse sometimes? Or make you happy with little gestures or someone who wanted to spend your time with you? Someone who cares for you? Do you have someone like that?" Kyle changed the direction question if his mother to these detailed one. In this way, Cayenne will have an easy time deducing her own feelings.

"I don't have someone like that." She answered with a straight face. "The man I knew annoys me so much. Though he takes care of me, he would always make fun of me as well. He's handsome face made me want to hide him away from the world! My god! He's making me become someone selfish! I don't think that's a good thing."

"How many times in a day do you think of him?" Luiz questioned as well.

"I don't know! It's not like I'm counting the thoughts of him in a day. He would just pop up out of nowhere."

"Do you know any other man aside from him?" her mother added a question, too.

She was obviously put on a hot seat but Cayenne didn't mind. She didn't see anything wrong with telling them how she feels. She just didn't have the slightest idea that they were helping her realize her feelings for Stefan. "I have known a lot of men in my field of work. Why?"

"Do you think of the other men as well?"

"Nope."

"Then, how do you feel every time you see him? I mean, you see him every day, right?" Kyle questioned.

'I don't just see him, I sleep with him.' Cayenne answered mentally but outwardly, she nodded her head to confirm that she had been seeing him every single day. "Sometimes, I feel worried. Sometimes, I'm scared."

"You don't feel this butterfly wings fluttering in your stomach when you see him? Your heart doesn't beat fast?" Luiz inquired. This was the last question and Cayenne frowned this time.

"Fluttering wings? I don't think so. I think I feel like getting constipated when I see him. Fast heartbeat? I think they just beat normally. I didn't run out of breath or feel any palpitations."

The three people in front of her sighed but it was a mixture of relief and sadness. "You are not in love." Kyle stated in a calm manner.

"I told you, I'm not. There's no way I'd feel in love with my boss."

"Your boss?" The three of them questioned in unison. They didn't know she was talking about her boss. Of course, it was natural to be worried and scared around your boss. He's got control over your work.

"Just forget it." Cayenne waved her hand to dismiss their conversation. They finally thought she didn't like her boss. However, she was the only person who knew her real feelings. But she would never tell anyone about it. She made a promise that she will never fall in love with him. What they have was pure business and nothing else.

Meanwhile, Stefan was sulking in his room. The past few days, Cayenne and him would be exchanging few messages during the day. It wasn't anything special, just normal conversation that he would always initiate. Now that he did something, he realized that Cayenne only texted him once. It was when she asked for the food that he likes. After that, he would always be the one to send her a message first.

"Is she not going to send me a message if I don't send her one first?" He waited and waited until lunch time arrived and there was still no message from her. He ordered some food and had it sent to his room and took a picture of it. He wasn't really someone who's active in his social media account but he does have an account where he finds most of his previous women. Now, he posted a photo of his lunch meal.

"I'm eating alone. I'm wondering what she's eating for lunch."

Many people were surprised to see his post. People from the media companies would be running around by now to know his woman, if this was like before. Now, they just stayed away from his life. After all, they received so much money from him and Stefan never said anything before. He let them feast over his messed-up life without saying a single thing. This time, they needed to respect him.

He was expecting Cayenne to see his post or at least, hear about it from someone. He forgot the fact that, Cayenne's phone wasn't an android and not many people knew about her relationship with Stefan. Who would tell her about it?

Few minutes after posting it, realization smacked him on the face which made him feel so frustrated. He ate his food as fast as he can; and just as he expected, Cayenne didn't send him any message. She completely ignored his existence.

It wasn't her intention to ignore him, though. First, she didn't have any social media account. She only borrows her brother's phone when she wanted to know something. News about Stefan were gossiped by her colleagues so she didn't need any phone for that. Aside from that, she wouldn't normally text him first. She wasn't anyone important to him. She's just a mere employee and it she would never disturb her boss.

Their thoughts were completely off and opposite. They will never meet in between.
