My eyes fluttered open and I rubbed them trying to wipe the sleep away. I looked around my surrounding. Then I remembered staying at Caleb's penthouse. It must be his guest room, but I remember sleeping on his couch. Maybe he carried me here.

I got off from the bed and walked towards the attached bathroom. I cleaned myself up and used an extra new brush that was present in the cabinet under the mirror in the bathroom to clean my teeth.

I exited the bathroom and combed my hair properly and tied it into a neat ponytail using the rubber band. Then I checked the time to find its already seven in the morning.

I walked out of the guest room and looked everywhere around but found no one around.

"I guess he is still sleeping" I thought to myself and went towards the kitchen.

I checked around the kitchen and decided to make a good breakfast for Caleb in a form of saying Thank You to him for allowing me to stay the night.

"I guess he is not that bad boss after all" I smiled and took the eggs and the pan from the shelf to start my work.

I have decided to make some scrambled eggs, toast and coffee.

When I was done I pour the coffee in to the cup and placed the plates with served toast and scrambled eggs in it in the table.

"Why are you making the breakfast?" I heard his husky voice and his fragrance filled my nose as I turned around to greet him.

"Good morning! It is my way to say thank you for letting me stay here for the night" I said and he shrugged. I saw him already dressed for the office. His hair was wet but perfectly arranged. He held his jacket in one hand while held his bag in another.

"You are already going to the office?" I couldn't help but ask.

"But it's too early" I said looking at the time.

"No! Not to the office. I am leaving for California" he said as he took his seat.

"I was thinking to get my breakfast on my way to the airport but I guess I don't need to do that any more. Thank you" he said and took a sip from his coffee.

"California? All of a sudden?" I asked taking a seat.

"Hmm for a Business meeting. I will be back after two days. Mean time take care of all my works" he said and I smiled nodding at him.

All of a sudden I wanted to tell him don't go. I don't know why but I am starting to get confused because of all my emotions that are flooding into my mind.

I began to eat my breakfast and we both ate our food in silence.

"That was really delicious. Thanks once again for saving my time. C'mon I will drop you home" he offered and I shook my head no.

"No it's alright. I will take a cab. I think you will get late for your flight" I said as I took the plates and kept in the basin.

"Just leave it there. Jenny will do that. She will be here anytime soon" he said and I nodded leaving the plates in the sink.

"And it's not a problem. I can drop you. C'mon now hurry" he said and I took my bags and nodded to him.

We walked out of the penthouse and went inside the elevator. We walked out of the building and found his car already waiting for us.

"Oh and tomorrow Mr Novak will be showing up for some work. Guide him" Caleb told me as took a seat inside his car and the driver pulled up to the road.

"Yes Sir!" I said and looked out of the window.

"This meeting is really important for me. I have been working the whole week on it. I hope everything goes well" he said and I gave him an assuring smile.

"Don't worry. I am sure that everything will go accordingly as you have planned"I said to which he only nodded.

The driver stopped the car right before my apartment building and I thanked him and Caleb before getting out the car. I turned around and walked towards the building but stopped when I heard Caleb shouting for me.

"Miss Carter!"

I turned around and found him already out of his car.

"Yes?" I asked

"When I come back I have something very important to tell you" he said and all of a sudden I felt my heart beat rising.

"What is it?" I asked curious.

"I will tell you after I come back. So my question is" he paused for a while before continuing "Will you wait for me?" he asked with hope filled in his eyes.

I didn't quite understand what he really meant by waiting for him but nevertheless I found myself nodding.

"Miss Carter Will you wait for me? I can't hear you" he said and I said "Yes" to which he smiled a perfect happy smile and went back inside his car before saying Good bye.

I waited until his car went out of sight before walking inside my apartment building. When I reached my door. I took out my keys to open it but to my utmost horror found it ready open.

"What the?" I muttered.
