THE CEO AND ME!

Kian's mind was all over the place.

He had never felt the way he was feeling since last night.

The scene of waking up and seeing her sitting on the bed, legs spread, blood pool all over her in the darkness of the night, kept repeating in his head all over again and again.

He parked his car and then walked out to grab the things he came out to get. It was his first buying women sanitary products so he was a bit confused about getting what and whatnot.

He strode inside the small-town store and went towards the women section. He saw all women except a few men.

He followed one of the men and stood beside him. The man grabbed three packets of tampons. Kian did the same not bothering to check the brand.

"Man! That's not the brand she likes."

The man said and left the package back. Kian heard him and stood there ideal not knowing what to do.

"She must be the easy one huh??"

"What??"

Kian questioned, not understanding what man meant.

"You are grabbing as if your woman will take any brand...so I m saying, she must be the easy one. Is she??"

The guy explained, looking at Kian. He had no idea how to respond to that either.

It was unusual for him to converse with civilians. His life had turned upside down for one brief decision he had taken in rush and lost the one thing he was so looking forward to having.

"This...this is my first time!"

He let out being honest. He had never in his life thought he would feel so awkward talking to a random stranger.

"Ahhh! Explains! Never mind."

The man said, patting his shoulder and handed him two packages. Kian held it, confused.

"This every woman like. Does not matter in the brand you know? They all are the same product but well they develop a weird taste of having in the long run...so grab this and tell her to work with this, this time...next time, ask her brand!"

The man very kindly elaborated everything to Kian and he very attentively listened to it all.

"You look old to say you are in your first relationship?"

The man implored, checking Kian from head to toe. They both walked together towards the cashier.

"She is my wife."

Kian answered. And that blew the man's mind more.

All he could think that how could get a man not know how to buy tampons and have a wife??

The cashier ran their bills and handed both of them their packages. Kian grabbed him and the man did his.

"Luke!"

The man extended his hand for a shake. Kian accepted it right away. He was thankful for the help.

"Kian Wilson...I mean Randall!"

It was a habit. A slip of tongue and he regretted it instantly as the man's look changed from normalcy to a big frown.

"Wait!!! You are freaking Wilson??? Billionaire who gave up everything for his wife??"

Luke...the man whispered, yelled the last part out. Kian looked around, checking if anyone else had heard it.

"Look!! Luke...I got to go now. Thanks for your help!"

Kian concluded and decided to leave before a scene is created. Luke was still staring at him as if he was someone different...a freaking celebrity.

"Man!!! My girlfriend is all over you!! You are like the ideal man for her..."

Luke grinned and Kian's attention was anywhere but there at the moment. He needed to get out and go home.

"Listen, Luke...thank you and I really need to go now!"

Kian stressed the word, 'now'. Luke understood and let go of Kian's hand.

"You might want to buy some chocolates and ice cream on the way???"

Kian turned around to look at him when he was about to walk out of the store. He nodded at Luke and got out.

Inside his Range Rover, he took a deep breath. He thought to stop by at the town cafe to buy Tinsley's favourite vanilla cake.

It was still very morning when he reached the cafe. Not many workers were still here but the old lady, the woman who ran the cafe was already here.

"You are up early, son."

The old woman smiled. Kian walked up to her towards the counter. He looked around to see only a few customers in.

"Can you hand that couple in the second table this pudding??"

Kian nodded and took the chocolate pudding from Agatha, the old lady and strode towards the couple.

He could not help but see the icing on the pudding, "Next year, you will get a father's day card!".

When he reached the table, the woman, the blonde smiled at him and thanked him for taking the pudding from his hand.

" Honey, your pudding!"

The woman called out for her husband. Kian stood beside them standing, watching the scene unfolding before him.

The man, her husband, looked up from his phone and kept it aside.

"I told you we did not have to do this on the morning of my birthday."

He said and pulled the tray nearer and when he saw the icing on the pudding, his eyes raised up in shock.

Both the couple's eyes each other if conversing telepathically and then the man came out of his seat and picked the woman up, twirling her around.

"You have given me the best gift on my birthday, honey!!"

The man happily announced and their laughter echoed in the background. Kian watched them dreamily and headed back towards the counter.

"They tried for four years.... every time, it turned negative, she would come here to cry."

Kian looked at Agatha, who started narrating the story, watching the happy couple, feeding each other the pudding.

"Their marriage was on the verge of breaking but they never stopped trying and losing hope...look at them today..."

Agatha said. The old lady wiped the tears of joy with a white tissue.

"Never stop trying, son...whatever you are doing or want...never stop!"

Agatha advised Kian, patting his shoulder. Kian hesitantly nodded.
