Trouble With The President

Chapter 38 - Why Am I So Empty?

Jim's mom were totally lying. Anyone could say that by just looking at her face. She said while drinking her delicious tea, "Your clothing, cell phone and passport? I haven't seen them."

"How can you ask your mom when you can't find your stuff?"

Jim was looking very pissed. He was at the verge of his anger and he yelled, "Where's phone and computer? Why did they disappear suddenly?" Jim was even more pissed off and angry because not only his clothes, cell phone and passport was lost but all the phones and computer in the mansion are also gone in just one night.

His mother put the cup of tea on the table and immediately made up an excuse, "Ah. Both were broken yesterday." She was smiling too much. As she continued, "I've asked Uncle Guan to get them repaired."

Suddenly a drop of sweat rolled down from his forehead and he said out loud with a little hesitation and a glimpse of sadness in his eyes, "I have to contact Yi Kuan for the affair of my company...." but he is really thinking about Tina at that time. Her thoughts were coming over and over in his head. 'Tina...'

His mother started laughing like a fox, "You can rest assured of this. I already told your grandpa. He has already informed Yi Kuan of that!" Jim was looking at her with an awkward face and pissed look but he can't do anything now because his grandpa is agreed to this and the decisions of grandpa are the law for him.

Suddenly a voice of a girl calling for Jim came from behind, "Jim!" He immediately turned around but Sage jumped on his back like a baby, "Why are you here without changing yourself?" She asked in confusion.

"Sage Yau. Get down from me!" He yelled in anger. It was very awkward for an a.d.u.l.t girl to do this kind of things. She started crying like a stubborn child, "Oh, No! I got to hold you like this!" His mother was feeling very happy on seeing both of them like a couple. "Sage, Jim will stay with us till the Christmas. Excited?" She asked with a big smile on her fox like face. Sage is also started smiling and said while weeping in joy, "God! Brilliant! I'm so happy!"

Jim is thinking with a pissed face, 'Oh! Why should I suffer this?'

After a week,

Meanwhile in Japan. At Jim Chin's Apartment,

There was an utter silence in the whole apartment accept a voice of eating and chewing. All the lights were on and Tina was sat on the floor and eating her favourite instant noodles. There was 4 or 5 empty cups of instant noodles are lying on the floor. It seems like she ate a lot of Instant noodles since Jim left the city. She kept peeking on her cellphone everytime when she take a bite of noodles.

'A whole week has passed....'

'That maniac hasn't been back.'

She is thinking about him in the whole weekend but whenever her thoughts become deeper about him then she immediately decline her feelings and started to think another things. Suddenly Jim's message came in her mind, 'Just for two days. No?'

Her feelings for him started to deepen again but she immediately decline them and said while moving her head aside, "Nope! I should have been glad if he isn't here!" Then she started smiling but it's totally a fake one, "I'm free without him!"

"Nobody will grumble at my eating instant noodles!" She said with a fake smile while taking a bite of her noodles. But suddenly she stopped at the middle of it and her joyful face turned into a sad face, 'But....Why am I so empty.....' She thought in despair.

Suddenly her cellphone started ringing, "Buzz.... Buzz... Buzz..." and her hopes raised again, 'The phone rings. Is it from....' She is thinking that at last Jim finally called her but she get shocked when the name came in her eyesight. Her eyes were widely open and a glimpse of fear is in her eyes. She didn't know, what to do? A moment later she received the call and said in a low tone, "Hey, Paiming."

On the other side, Paiming Siao released a big smile and called her name, "Tina...."

Her heart beat started running fast. But it's not love, it's fear and guilt.

"Tina, long time no see. How are you?" Paiming Siao asked again.

She replied with an awkward face and a little hesitation, "Em. Fine, just busy with my work. So I got no time to contact you."

"Ah, so are you available this weekend? I'd like to see a film with you."

'Seeing a film....' She went silent for a while on hearing it. "Hello. Tina, can you hear me?"

She snapped out of her thoughts and immediately replied, "Yup, I'm with you...."

"Sorry I can't coz I got some part times this weekend!"

"Ah, Fine. Take care of yourself. Tell me when you're in need! I will help you without thought!"

"I got it, Paiming, See you!" then she hung up the phone and her cellphone suddenly fall on the floor from her hand. 'Ming....Sorry for lying to you.....' She was looking in despair and in extreme sadness, 'Because I..... Don't deserve your love anymore!' She put her head between her legs and started crying. It was very painful for her. She can't lie to her best friend and her crush but she can't do anything in this situation.
