Let Him Love You First

Despite her concentration paddling and maintaining her balance, she also paid him attention and sight. "Ma"am Z, keep your eyes on the road." Polly instructs her to because she almost hit one swimmer with her paddle.

Good thing that the swimmer is not as hot as he is becoming. "I"m sorry!" she said.

"It"s nothing. You didn"t hurt me at all."

After kayaking Zoey and Polly returned to the mainland, Zoey has exert all her energy and decided to just lay back and so sunbathing or to stay in her room. Any of her options she still needs to go back to her lounge and take her things. In the end she choose the latter.

"Excuse me!" Zoey said to one foreigner sitting her tote bag. The girl was facing Nickel and was trying to ask something she was too inattentive to notice Zoey.

Nickel was all focused on seeking for a better plan for is his surprise confession. He really wanted it to be memorable that is why didn"t notice anyone around including Zoey.

The girl really didn"t bat and eye on her so she surprisingly s.n.a.t.c.hed he bag that cause the foreigner to fall in the chair.

"Oops! Sorry but not sorry." She sarcastically apologizes and then turned her back to them. "The h.e.l.l! He didn"t even look at me?" she verbally said to herself once she already secures the parameter.

"He is there all along but he didn"t even say something to that girl who was sitting on my precious tote bag."

"Tsk!"

Zoey went to her room and watch movies on the television, "Good thing that this resort provides cable connect." Zoey spend all her afternoon watching television or surfing the Internet with her phone.

She was just notified that it is already dinnertime when Polly knocks on her door. "Ma"am Z, are you there?" and because she was too preoccupied with the show she is watching Zoey just shouts she is indeed inside the room.

"Come on let"s eat. It"s dinner time." After hearing that it is already their time to eat Zoey just concluded why her tummy keeps on grumping for time to time.

She hurriedly rushes in the door and was welcome by Polly who was wearing her long gown with flowery pattern. "Wait for me here! I"ll just change in a minute."

After a minute or two, Zoey showed her self in her beige long loose jumpsuit made from Thailand. She personally customized the design from her friend who went on a vacation last time.

"Wow! I didn"t know that you do runways Ma"am Z. this dress is so awesome!" Polly compliment her attire, Zoey even told her that she designed it on their way to the banquet.

Despite being late that night, Zoey still got the privilege spot because they won a game on their team building activity that early afternoon. But the unfortunate thing about that spot is she needs to sit beside Carl for the entire night.

"Now that my night is complete and beautiful, I have how a lavish appet.i.te to eat." People around them thought that he was talking literally but after what Polly told her about this guy, she knew that his words he it"s double meaning other than it"s literal translation.

Zoey suddenly regret being too compet.i.tive that time because her supposed to be prize turned to her nightlong punishment.

Nickel, on the other hand, lost his appet.i.te because he has been losing for her the entire afternoon. He already thought worst of worse that she probably drown into the water or run away. He already got a plan because the only problem is that he girl he wants to confess with is missing in action that whole afternoon.

After finishing wants on her plate Zoey excused her and returned to the back garden f the resort, at least here she can stay and meditate alone. Little did she know that one the other side of the garden was where Nickel"s surprise resides? It is a good thing that Zoey stays in one place and didn"t tour around because of she did, another problem will arise for Nickel to solve.

Back on the banquet, the dinner party has almost near to end, it is already their awarding ceremony their one-day teambuilding. And as the director in charge, Nickel needs to present the awards and prizes to the lucky partic.i.p.ants.

"The criterion for judging is all based on all the votes we gathered. Everyone is a candidate, the one who got the most vote wins." This is a little introduction given by the host.

Nickel has been standing there for almost half an hour, winners got their only chance to take a picture with him that is they are making most out of it, especially female winners.

"My prayers have been answered, at last. I will make this picture my wallpaper and print it to hang in my room." Said by one winner.

"For out last two awards, the G.o.ddess of the day and night goes to Ma"am Zoey from accounting department." All in accounting department applause from their manager"s victory. The so-called compet.i.tion between May and Zoey is like a calculus quiz bee between a ten year old kid versus an in-born mathematician.

This one of the reason why May suddenly add this t.i.tle after she confirmed that Zoey will nit be attending the event. She knew that her beauty surpa.s.s the others if Zoey is not around. But of course to her surprise, Nickel really brought her when he arrived.

"Ma"am Zoey? Does anyone know where Ma"am Zoey is?" asked by the female host, when no one can tell where she is, Nickel whispered to her to let the award stay there and give it her when she arrives.

"Next award is the Mister of the day and night goes to Director Fuentes." A thunderous round of applause explode inside the banquet hall. This category was a landslide pool for Nickel because both male and female voted him. No other candidate.

"Too bad that our G.o.ddess of the day and night is not here." Said the male host.

After the awarding ceremony, the hosts wrap up the party and give thanks to everyone who is involved in the project.

Nickel hurriedly rush and tried to find where Zoey is as he still have one agenda to fulfill.

Hopefully his plan will not be put in vain because he really wanted to stop this chase with her.
