Chapter 21 Being with him
Its been a month since we had our dinner at my boyfriend's parents house. His family are incredible. His father humor amused me all the time.
What are your thoughts?? He asked while driving me back at my apartment after work.
Nothing. I smiled.
Do you want to come in???
Yes, I want to make sure you are safe. I hate the fuck that you are alone Minty. He frowned.
I'm okay Jacob. Sometimes, I enjoyed being alone
Are you going somewhere??? He pointed at the suitcase.
No! That's Tanya. Maybe she forget to bring it with her.
I thought she was on a vacation? He asked confused.
No. I told him about what happened to Tanya and his asshole ex-boyfriend.
I Thought its just my sisters who doesn't know how to choose men wisely, but Tanya also belongs to them. I cannot blame them. They are only being taken for granted. Pure lust and no commitment. Seriously. What is bothering you? He eyed me.
Nothing I said.
NO. You are not comfortable and being uneasy.
Its nothing Jacob. Now you go home.
You throwing me out?
Of course not. Its just its getting late.
Lucky for you I have an urgent matter to be done tomorrow so I will obliged to your request for now.
And what would that be???
Just something urgent as he kissed my lips.
See you tomorrow Minty!.
Bye, Jacob.
Bye baby. Sleep tight and dream of me. He said.
I was smiling as I closed the door. I went to my room, take a shower and Wear my favorite PJ's.
I am wondering on what will happen to us in the future. Well, I am virgin and he was not. Although I want to remain virgin until marriage but the thought of my scars disgust me.
Sighing, I think of any other things before I drove off to sleep.

Few weeks later, I always arrived early at work than Jacob. Even though we have a relationship, I don't want others to talk about us and I don't want them to think that I am getting special treatment just because I m the boss girlfriend. As I am finishing Jacob's, my phone rang. It was Jacob.
Yes??
Good morning Minty.

Why are you not at work today??
Ohh someone is missing me, aren't she??? Something came up. Don't worry I'll be there in just minutes.
Although I want to know what is it all about, I opted not to ask him.
Don't worry Ms. Kaynes, I will be there faster than you moan my name. He said then he laughed.
Jacob!!! I yelled
Minty!!! He mimicked me.
Bye Jacob! I laughed then end the call. I go back to what I'm doing. I scanned emails and prepare spreadsheets.
Several minutes later, I already finished what I'm doing. I went to Jacob's office and put all those documents on his table. Just as I was about to turn on, someone opened the door. So eager babe? He teased
God, how I love this man. He was so sexy in his suit while walking towards me.
Very then rolled my eyes.
I hate that??
Hate what? I asked in confusion.
When I stare at you, you looked away. It pisses me off.
I don't. I lied. I am fully aware of it but I hated it when he looked at me like that because it just reminds me that we can never be.

Not---
Don't tell me nothing Minty. You have been spacing out for almost two weeks now. Now, what is your problem?
Really, there is no problem.
What is it babe? He caressed my cheeks which is one of the things he do most of the time.
Mr. Jackson??? Said by a voice outside
Come in he said
There is someone who wants to see you. Minty is not in her office so---
Its okay. send him in.
I'll see you later Jacob.
I went to my office and sat there crying. I never cried like this before not until what my father did to me.
I didn't want to be a burden to Jacob.
I trusted Jacob and we had feelings for each other, maybe more than that and we had in a relationship, but why is that I cannot let him in.
Jacob was the most insane and arrogant man I have met, yet he was the most amazing and genuine man I have known.
This is not fair. He deserves to know everything and decide whether he wants to continue on this relationship or not. Jacob deserves to know my father issues, the pain and my fears.
Tonight, I will tell him all about it....
