Liam looks at Jake and I how stiff we both look when we saw each other.
"Honey, this is our new employee," Maggie said introducing Jake and I.
"Hi..." he said putting his hand out.
"hello," I said shaking his hand.
We awkwardly shake hands and quickly put our hands at our side.
"Honey, you seem tense," Maggie said wrapping her arms around his arm.
"Sorry honey, I was stressed at work today."
"My poor baby," she cooed at him.
"Honey, please...." he whispers.
It's so awkward seeing my boss with my ex boyfriend.
How do I say this.....it's weird.
Jake was the only one I loved and been with for long time than any past boyfriend I had. We were honestly thought about marriage, but we fell apart.
"You two should head home," Maggie said to Liam and I.
"See you tomorrow, Maggie," I said walking fast to the door.
"Wait!" Jake said.
I look back sort of mortified that he stop me.
Liam is having some suspicion to our meeting.
"honey?" Maggie said.
"Maggie....um..." he starts off.
Is he going to tell her?!
"how about we take them home by our car. I put in gas today," he said.
WHAT IS HE DOING!?!?!?
"Are you sure, honey?" Maggie said.
"yeah, it's getting dark and I want to make sure these two are safe," Jake said.
Crap Crap Crap Crap Crap Crap
He knows about that incident of the attack too!
NOOOOOOOOOO!
"We're not high schoolers," Liam said.
"We're okay taking the bus," I said.
"I insist. I take you two home," Jake said.
"come on, you two. You don't have to pay money for the fare today," Maggie said making a positive out of this.
I look at the door seeing the sky getting dark.
I don't want to walk alone.
"okay," I said.
"Liam?" Maggie said.
"I will also go."
At least, I have Liam with me.
********************************************************
We walk out of the cafe and see this toyota car park in front of the cafe. Jake press the button unlocking the car. Jake helps Maggie to the passenger seat. Liam and I sat in the backseat. Our knees and elbow were touching. Jake took the driver seat.
This is so uncomfortable.
"How was work?" Jake said staring the car.
"the usual," she said.
