chapter-15: Coffee Poison

Aria Anastasia Zaiden was taken aback at my question. I knew that it was an unexpected question, but I had to ask to be clear, because he was acting differently and so was I in some matters. What was going on with us? If he wasn��t my friend, then what were we? Somewhere in my heart, I wanted him to answer what was going on in his heart. Also, I didn��t want him to answer because I was afraid of hearing it. Sucking in a deep breath, Zaiden leaned closer to me, his arms still blocking me from both sides as his chest rubbed against my back. He said, ��We are just two different people, working together with the same motive, which is to work for the welfare of the company.�� Feeling deja vu at the approximate closeness, I managed to get out of his cage and pushed a few strands of my ginger hair behind my ear before facing him. ��You could��ve said that normally instead of creating suspense,�� I mumbled. ��Then where would be the fun which I am now getting just by seeing your reaction?
