Chapter 5|| The Invitation
"Loving is you was the best choice I ever made."
Unknown.
"Okay this should do it. Please make sure to apply this on the wound. It should heal up within three days." the doctor closed his bag and nodded to Carlos.
"Thank you so much Dr. Carson. Let me show you out." Carlos left with the doctor and it was just me and Alfredo. I could still feel the tingles on my body remembering just how right it felt being pressed against him. But I also freaked out and suddenly attacked him.
"You panicked." he said looking directly in my eyes. "Why?"
I was hoping he would never realise it but there are some things that can't be hidden for long.
"I didn't panic. You were disrespecting me and I reacted" the lie just slipped out and I masked my face with indifference.
"Pont of correction." he stared "You overreacted. And besides if you weren't feeling comfortable, the sane thing to do was to voice it out. I don't go about sleeping with every woman I see. I told you before we rarely have women around. Anyone that comes here is either a hooker or a maid for the day." Alfredo breathed out and glared.
I equally glared back trying to prove that he doesn't faze me. "Just stay out of my way and we won't have any trouble."
He stood up, and stood very close to me. He tucked a strand of hair beside my ear.
"You are hiding something." he whispered.
I took a step back realising how close he was to me. "And I will definitely find out what it is." he brushed past me, leaving me totally entranced. There is something about him that is getting my heart all jammed up. And I don't like it one bit.
"Well that went rather well." Carlos said from behind me and I startled.
"I didn't hear you come in." Carlos looked all different. He wasn't wearing his suit anymore. He changed into a black tank top and shorts. I couldn't help but notice those full muscle on display. Just like Alfredo he also had a scar but it was on his left arm.
"I am surprised that Alfredo left you in his room. After Nana, he has never allowed in again. Not even me." my curiosity sparked when he said after Nana. Who was she? Then again I remembered that he sent me here in the first place.
"But you sent me here in the first place." I didn't hide the scowl on my face. Carlos is up to something and I don't like it one bit.
"Yes I did." he had a smug look on and it took everything in me not to snap.
"Look, you won't understand what I am doing right now. But it will make sense once you start seeing it for yourself. Okay?" I raised and brow and I could tell he sensed my confusion.
"How about a tour of the house to pass time by?" he was trying to change the subject and I let it pass. At the right time I will know what he has up his sleeves.
"Why not? I need to set up a few things myself." Thankfully Rahul had his back pack with him when we jumped. It has all all I need.
"But we have CCTV cameras around." Carlos said as he led me to my room.
"Yes I know that. I am not setting up cameras, I could easily hack into yours. I am setting up voice recorders plus a few things you don't need to know off."
"Here is your room." he said as we stopped at a door. Carlos opened the it and I looked around. It wasn't much different from Alfredo's room.
"I am guessing you guys don't like a lot of colors." Carlos chuckled.
"Don't blame me. Alfredo set it up for you." I decided not to ask why and just stepped inside. There were few bags on the bed and a note.
"Where did these come from?" There were a lot of clothes and other accessories that I needed. Whoever that brought these is a life saver. I hadn't thought of shopping yet.
"I am sorry for disrespecting you. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable."
Love, A.
I folded the note and placed it beside my lamp stand.
"Alfredo sent one of the guys to get the stuff for you." Carlos casually answered and shrugged. I blushed when I realized he brought everything I needed. Including panties and underwear.
How did he even know my size.
"Since these are here, can I just quickly change?"
Carlos nodded and I took a pair of jeans and a top. Carlos waited as I changed and there were a perfect fit. I tied my loose hair into a bun and left a few strands hanging.
"Let's go." Carlos eyed me from top to down when I came out. "Damn, you look good."
I pretended to be unaffected by his words and let him lead the way to Rahul's room.
"Hey there kiddo." Rahul was facing the window when I entered. His eyes were all hazed and his pupils were dilated.
"Hi." he slurred and chuckled.
Is he on something?
He tried walking over to me but lost his footing. Carlos rushed to him before he could hit the ground. He helped him on the bed and he went straight away to sleep.
"What is wrong with him?" Carlos picked up the bag for me and he looked the room once we got out.
"It's better if he told you himself." I have never seen Rahul like this. And suddenly it dawned on me that Carlos knew something that I didn't. And it has just been a day they met.
Carlos helped me set up the things all around the house. He was finishing the last touches and I was heading to the kitchen when I heard whispers coming from one of the rooms.
"Tenemos que llevar et jefe a la fiesta esta noche. Es nuestra unica oportunidad"
"Que hay del guardia? Nonos planteara ninguin problema.?"
"Trataremos con ella masterade"
I jumped back when the handle turned. The guys just looked at me and walked away. I had recorded their conversation and all I needed now was for me to get a translator.
"Oh Sienna, good you are here. Alfredo has something to tell you." Carlos said as I entered the hall. I turned to Alfredo and he handed an envelope to me.
"I need you to accompany me to my annual Enterpreneur Mind's Party. Take this." He shoved a dress in my hands.
"And get dressed. We leave at eight."
✏Author's Note.
Heyo. Sorry for the late update. After a hectic day yesterday, I watched a Rerun of Kingsmen (The secret service and the Golden Circle.) I got mad love for that movie. Especially Harry!!
The translation in the order I wrote them.
"We have to make the boss get to the party tonight. It's our only chance."
"What about the guard? Won't she pose any problem?"
"No. We will deal with her later."
PS
*whispers" I can't speak Spanish. Google is such a life saver.
