Kaminoniki - Chapter 9 Chapter 8

The day after Levi gave the call to Mary.

After Levi called Mary yesterday, and Mary has forgiven him for his horrible act on the other night; Levi feels extremely happy about today.

As an apology, Levi invites Mary to a movie that Mary wishes to watch. Along with that since tomorrow is the weekend, and after hearing that Mary once slept over in the movie theater Levi also have his own thought on spending the night inside the movie theater; therefore Levi and Mary come to an agreement that they would spend tonight watching a movie in the theater and also do a sleepover inside the theater.

When you are in a great mood, life is always going to be an asshole and give you the worst situation to mess up your happy mood. As Levi comes into the office, his boss, the team leader of a project that Levi is involved in, announces that today Levi and his team will be working over-time due to some ridiculous reason.

“What the Heck, man! Why God has to do me like that!” Levi feels annoyed with the bad things that are always kept on happening to him. Started when he was young with the lovemaking and health condition situation; to now that he finally fixed his problem and can move on to a happy life, about to score a touch down with a pretty and nice girl that he never had before; but life always has to be an asshole and comes around to mess it up for him.

Life is like a law that no one can change, no matter how hard it is the only thing Levi can do now is compliant about and come back to reality to deal with it.

He picks up his phone, opens up to message app, clicks on the name “Mary” with a devil emoji next to it.

“Hey, Mary, I’m sorry to text you this, but today I have to work over-time. I don’t think we can go to the movie tonight. I’m sorry. [Sad Emoji].”

Then puts his phone down and proceed to work in an annoyed and a bit sad feeling.

Hours have gone by, a gentle but clear ring alert Levi. It is Mary’s text back.

“Hey, Levi, It’s fine.”

Levi reads the message and sudden pound hits Levi’s heart. He felt sad and disappointed; he feels like a kid who got hurt and comes home expecting his mom to comfort him but instead gets criticized for the clumsiness this kid has.

Levi puts his phone down and chooses to ignore the message from Mary. He is upset but yet a little bit angry, he then threw himself into work; hoping to forget the horrible feeling he is having right now.

Not too long after the first ring, “Ding!” a second ring rings from Levi’s phone.

Levi picks up his phone with a little sadness and more of expectation that for Mary’s comfort.

Unfortunately, it’s just a spam message from a website.

“Love will kill you if you are expecting it. – Darwin”

Levi is furious at the moment and did not spot the name after the spam message; puts the phone down and continues to work.

Right after Levi deletes the spam message a new message came across Levi’s phone.

“Where do you work?” It’s Mary.

Levi saw the message, his hand is shaking from the sudden excitement he felt from the message from Mary.

It is like when mother criticized the kid for his clumsiness and then told the kid that he can get whatever he wants for Christmas this year because she loves him so much.

Since Levi did not reply to Mary’s first message, he unlocks his phone and replies,

“Hey, I’m so sorry for the late response; I’ve been working this whole time.”

“I work at xxx, but why?”

“Nothing just wanted to check up on you [Devil Face Emoji]. ” Mary quickly replies.

“LOL, you are so funny [Laugh in Tear Emoji]. “Levi jokes.

“You can go back to work now, just checking up on you [Heart Emoji]. “Mary flirts.

Levi smiles then put his phone down. So many emotion is running inside Levi right now; he feels happy that Mary did get mad or rejects his excuse for not being able to go to the movie with her, but yet a little confused that she asks about where he works. With all these emotions in him, he takes a break to cleat his mind and comes back to work.

When you have something to do, time always flew by fast.

Levi types his last word on the computer, and process to stretch his hard-working hand; after he picks up his phone to check the time, it is 9:39 PM. 21 minute until Levi is done with the overtime shift, Levi has a lot of time left and has nothing to do in the office.

“Ding!” just right after Levi puts down his phone and heads toward to the bathroom for a bathroom break, a message was sent to Levi.

Levi quickly pick up the phone to see who the message is from even though Levi already guessed who it might be.

It is Mary!

“Hey, I’m downstairs by your company!”

Levi couldn’t believe what he sees! Mary came to his company! Moreover, it is pretty late considered the fact that most people had already gone home!

“OMG! You came for me [Shock Emoji] [Shock Emoji] [Shock Emoji]. ” Levi quickly replies.

“Yae, well, I only 2 days left in the country, and I really looking forward to spending some quality time with you, so I thought why not. ” Mary spiled her heart for him.

“Thank you so much for coming! It’s still something I have to finish at the office, there is a wine shop right around the corner, you can have a little drink and I will come right to you! Don’t drink too much, we have ‘a lot’ to do tonight!” Levi didn’t invite Mary over to his office, even though he is allowed to do so because there is literally no one is here in the office; even if there are people in the office, they would not give a damn about a visitor coming over. In addition to the fact that he has nothing to do at the moment because he has already finished his part of the job, but he chooses not to.

Being a womanizer which he is, he wants to put Mary in a very clear position that he did not ask for begs her to come to his company to pick him up; he doesn’t even care too much about her. It totally her choice to come because she cares too much about him.

He wants Mary to have a feeling that she is the one who is needy, not him. He wants Mary to know that she should be the one who put herself in a position under Levi in this relationship.
