S*x Scandal !!

(The hallway is crowded with applicants for the 'Flirting Island' tv-show.And in the between women wearing swimsuits.)

"I flower at Eiden who used to be my boss

"Even if you're the general manager Eiden,you cannot fire me like this!My s*x scandal is all a misunderstanding!"

"I'm afraid my hands are tied. I realize that our hotel has done better since you started working here,but.... You do remember what happened that day , don't you Aries?" "He replied to me"

*I'm at a loss for words after hearing him talk, Because Eiden strongly believes he saw me in the hotel's swimming pool.... having s*x with a guest ! *

..."4 days ago"...

(I was in the middle of a shift with my close colleague, Megan, when....)

"What?You're saying there's a guest who's interested in me?

And he's waiting for me at the pool?! "

”Yess!! He's rich, hot , and well-mannered too!

You just hit the the jackpot! Megan replied"

"But I'm not even thinking about a relationship right now..."

"Ariel, Please! I don't expect you to get into a relationship with the man.

How long has it been since you last had s*x?"

"Uhm....Eight months?No maybe ten? But it's okay. Just working like this right now...."

"Ariel,are you going to let your twenties go like that?Life is nothing without s*x! If you don't go, I'll go."

"But what if he's not my type....?"

”There's no way that's possible,so don't worry and just go!"

(I can never beat Megan's persistence, so I just shrug and head to the pool.The swimming pool was shimmering with moonlight.There's already a man enjoying the water by himself.)

*Is that the man Megan mentioned? I wonder how many years it's been since my last adventure.* "I thought"

(I cough to announce my presence. The man stops swimming and glances back at me...)

"……… Who are you? A guest?" He asked.

(I can't breathe as I stare into....The cold,golden eyes of..... Lucas???)

*That's our hotel's CEO!!! He's definitely rich and hot but...Did he really say he was interested in me??* "I thought while being shocked"

"Ah, I'm Ariel. I'm here because I heard you called me."

"I did?"

(Lucas looks really drunk. He struggles to get out of the pool, losing his balance in the process.)

"Be careful, Lucas! Urgh..."

(As I groan and raise my head, I see Lukas's n*ked body right in front of me. When I look closer, I realize he's just wearing speedo trunks.)

"I don't care is you're a customer or an employee, please let's stay like this for a moment."

...(I can see tears welling around his eyes.)...

*I realised that It's almost closing time and the cleaners will be here soon....What should I do? I started panicking*

...(I hesitated and slowly pat his back.)...

"I don't know what happened,but it'll be okay. You don't need to cry."

"Are you worrying about me?"

"In a way, yeah." *I could be fired if something happened to you!*'Me in mind'

"It's been a long time since I've been conforted."

...(His glance softens.)...

"Now that I think about it, you look kinda familiar...."

(My phone suddenly starts vibrating loudly 📳📳 )

...(It was Megan, I answered the call)...

"Ariel, where are you now? There was a misunderstanding,the customers is down in the lobby now!"

"Whattt??Then, what about Lucas?Don't tell me I got them mixed up?!"

"Suddenly Lucas...Who are you talking to in a situation like this?"

"Well, there must have been a mistake. I guess you're are not hurt,so I'll be on my way!" I tried to pretend.

(At that moment,Lucas suddenly takes my phone📱And start dieling some numbers)

"What are you doing? Give it back!"

"I just called my personal line. Now that I know your number, don't even think about running away."

"What?!"

(Not knowing what to do,Lucas squeezes my hand.)

"I'm asking you. Stay a little longer with me. And don't tell anyone that you saw me like this."

"That's not a favor,it's a threat! If you're going to ask me for a favor, at least fo it right!" I shouted.

".......I'll give you whatever you want. Just don't leave me alone right now."

(Confused, I look into his wet golden eyes and thought)

*That's cheating, looking at me with such desperate eyes...*

"Okay, okay, I get it. I'll keep it a secret, so let go of me."

………………

(The last thing I remember about that day is dressing Lucas as he slept on the floor. I thought it was just a random, one-night mixup, but.....)

*Back to Present Day*

”Anyway, that day was a misunderstanding! I was just trying to help a drink customer!"

"Ariel, I've already checked with the pool cleaners that day. I'm busy with the show interview right now, so let's talk later."

(Just like his nickname,“The Layoff Master”,Eiden is calm and collected.)

"....."

(But I could see a hint of regret in his eyes.I grab his sleeves and shout.)

"Eiden, wait!"

"Let me talk to the higher ups one more time. You're also Lucas's personal secretary!"

"Ariel,you know what kind of person Lucas is."

"I know , a scrooge who would do anything to make money....."

"Ariel!"

(As the public start to stare, Eiden lowers his voice.)

".....Lucas doesn't like it when his schedules messed up.If you go try to talk to him ,now you'll get kicked out."

*What, kicked out? But I'm in this situation because of him. In that case, I'll won't stay silent about what happened that night!* In mind.

"Where's is our oh-so-perfect boss, and what is he doing?"

".......He's busy interviewing the Flirting Island participants."

*An interview?*

(Flirting Island is a competitive,reality, dating show. It offers a huge prize money to participants who will win the coveted heart of Lucas.)

(I didn't really care or give it much thought when young, pretty girls went in and out of the hotel.)

*But things are different now!I just lost my job, and he's busy judging women?*

"Ohh, that show where they have to seduce a millionaire?The one that Lucas produces and stars in?"

"Watch your language,Ariel. His room is right next door."

"Then we can go to the interview room right now."

"Like I said, he can't talk to you right now..."

"It'll only take 5 minutes! Tell him to spare me 5 minutes."

(Dodging Edien, I open door of the so-called interview room.)
