COLTON
I called Jake once just to ask Zari's number and he answered few rings. "Hello" he said.
"Hi, hello!" I said walking around my living room. "Is this Jake, handler of Zari?"
"Yes, who is this?" he asked.
"I am Colton Torres and I wanted to answer Zari's number?"
"Hi, Mr. Torres, what is this all about? Is the modeling job you needed for her? He replied. "About you are asking that I could not possibly give you her personal number unless she is the one to give it to you. It was strictly confidential for her part and me." He added.
"No, this is personal matter and I met here during Clare's fashion show." I confessed.
He paused, "What exactly your name again?" Jake asked back.
"Colton Torres" I answered.
"Colton Torres, as in Torres Shipping Lines Corp. and other businesses?" he said confirmedly.
"Yes, I am he."
"Oh my goodness." He said in shocked in the other line. "But Mr. Torres, if for business purposes you want to contact Zari, we cannot accept any job for her now for personal reason. However, if for your personal gain too, absolutely I cannot because she is not available and I cannot contact her and I do not know where she is now."
"What do you mean you cannot contact her? I was with her last night and that is why I want to know her number from you." I heard no sound on the other line. "Hello"
"Well, Mr. Torres, I guess that's beyond my capacity if you were with her last night. I guess she will be the one who can give you her number once you see her again." He said. "Have a nice day, Mr. Torres and good luck."
'Why am I doing this? It is not me anymore… why am I been bothered with this woman? Since I met her I was not even in myself. I always wanted to see her and be with her.' I shook my head for thinking about it in my mind.
There is something about her that caught me beyond expectation. 'What is wrong with me?'
I went to my study room and opened my laptop. I needed to keep busy to stop thinking about her. She must be some kind of witch that knows how to deal with a man like me.
'What am I thinking about those witchcrafts thing about her? Since that time I saw her she got my interest. I was the one who bewitched by her… whatever. I shook my head again then concentrate my work.
'I'll just do my unfinish work and stop thinking about her.' But then her eyes flashed quickly inside my mind. Not only that her lips, her... wait a minute I just said I do not want to think about her. Focus Colton and do your damn work.
