Zandros' POV

This morning when I woke up, and realized that she's gone to work, I felt a tad disappointed. I woke up at 9 and noticed her note on the vanity mirror. So I decided to have a shower and rummage through the small luggage where Calixto put all the clothing I asked him to bring. I pulled out a blue jeans and a sky blue top.

Then I decided to put the rest of my clothes in one of her drawers to keep since I decided to stay in her place until I leave.

The thought of leaving her was distressing. I felt empty. I don't know if I could bear being away from her that long. I'm glad Cassandra and Andreas were very efficient.

And regarding the CMOSA, I could work anywhere as long as my laptop and phone is with me.

I pulled some of her drawers to check some empty one, when I stumble of a man's top, a boxer and a pants?

The jealousy knocked me really hard.

Why is there a man's clothing in one of her drawers?

I knew she didn't sleep with anyone, because she's still a virgin when I took her.

I took the damn clothes furiously and threw it on the floor. Then I stuff all my clothes, in now, an empty drawer.

Dammit!! Who is he? Is it Mario? and he's sleeping with her??

Damn!

After filling the drawer with all my garments, I closed it hard.

I walked out her bedroom and decided to go downstairs, with the man's fabric in my hand. I was clenching it real tight, thinking it's the man's head.

I headed to the kitchen and threw the clothes in the garbage with hatred, under the sink where the small garbage bin was sitting. I was so jealous.

I walked to her living room and pace back and forth. My hand was resting on my hips while the other was occasionally brushing my hair in frustrations.

I had to trust her. I had to..

God this is killing me! Should I ask her? Or just forget it?

Damnation! I don't want her to think I'm jealous with just seeing a man's clothing in her drawer. But I am. And right now, I wanted to kill!

I sat on the couch and leaned my head back on the support staring blankly on the ceiling. This stirring emotions is overwhelming and It's getting the best of me.

Dammit!! Dammit!!!

I stood up and dialed my sister's number to divert my attention. After like a decade, waiting, finally she accepted the call.

"Christine's Speaking.." Her throaty voice rang in my ears. I was staring blankly on the TV screen. "What's up Zandros?" she snapped, sounding exasperated.

Why did I call my sister? Surely, I won't relate to her anything about us and Lauren.

Then I thought maybe make a lunch for us and Lauren.

"What type of food does Lauren likes to eat? Her favorite?" I dubiously asked. I knew it's not a good idea to ask her. Knowing her nosy character.

"Yay, my brother is becoming a softee... Really, you're going to cook for her? Well, her favorite food?" she chanted and giggled. I'm starting to get piss off her.
