Falling For The Man I Married

"With whom?"

My eyes widened with his kind of question. 

-'With whom? What is this, an interrogation?'-

"With Sandy."

"And?" 

I looked at him as my eyebrows knitted. "With Nancy."

"And there's another one!"

Why do I feel like he's questioning me who I had eaten lunch with?

"So, you already know there's another one?" I don't need to ask where he got the information because I don't see anything wrong with it.

"Yes! Why don't you tell me who's the other one?" he asked me in a loud voice.

"If you already knew there's another one with us, then why do you keep asking?" I ignored him and put my bag on top of my desk. I can feel my temper rising from his questions and the tone that he used.

"Madi, I was just asking if who's with you! I've been calling you for almost an hour since I got back and you're not answering!"

My head immediately snapped at him and I chuckled sarcastically. 

"Oh, so you're calling me for almost one hour? Wow, congratulations, that means you haven't forgotten my number! Well, FYI... I've also been calling you for almost two days. I've been trying to reach you and have sent you so many messages this morning, but where were you? Have you answered any of my calls? Did you respond to any of my messages?"

"Madi, you know where I am!"

"Oh, I'm sorry Mr Wilsons, but as an employee and your personal assistant, I don't know your whereabouts! I'm not concerned about your personal business and I've already cancelled two of your meetings this morning!" I answered wearing my professional look.

"I don't care whether you cancelled all my appointments today! I am not asking you as your boss, I am asking you as your husband!"

"Oh, so you're asking me now as my husband? Well, Mister fake husband, as your fake wife, is it still important for you to know who I had lunch with? Because as far as I remember, I didn't ask what you did and who have you been with these past two days."

"We're getting out of the topic, Madi! Who's with you besides Ms Aguilar and Nancy?"

-'Wow! getting out of topic or you're just avoiding the real topic?'-

"I'm with Greg, Mr Wilsons! Your cousin and your best friend!" I answered proudly. -'patience..patience..'- I whispered silently.

"Why were you with him?" he asked me through gritted teeth and clenched jaws.

"What is it with you, if I'm with him? He's my friend----"

"I don't want you to talk to him! Stay away from him, Madi!" 

If he happened to be a dragon, I'm sure, I'm already toasted in where I stood. I remember Nancy's words, he's jealous of Greg. I don't think so maybe just his ego.

"Wow! Mr Wilsons, you're now entering my personal life!" --'you've already enteredⁿ my heart'-- ... "What if I ask you to stay away from Stacey, will you do it?"
