Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

Chapter 62 - 62. Talk To Nicho

"O-okay. I will. Thanks in advance," Anna stuttered, maybe because she was too happy? She never expected to get a golden opportunity like this, there was nothing else she could give Naila except thanks.

"You're welcome."

Until late at night, Naila decided to rest first and left Anna alone in the living room, But before that, she went to Dave's room to check on the boy again.

While on the other hand, Anna who never felt sleepy didn't move a bit from her place. After all, Devan asked her to take the day off tomorrow, so she didn't have to wake up earlier as usual. Sleeping a little later wouldn't be a problem right?

Anna suddenly remembered that she hadn't called Nicho after turning off the man's phone a while ago, whereas though she had promised to do so.

The woman then grabbed her cellphone which was on the table and then entered Nicho's contact number, Anna did memorize the man's contact just in case something happened at home while Nicho was at the office.

"Good evening, how are you today?" A message floated to the man's contact number. Don't forget to write her name as the sender.

But only a few minutes later, her cell phone rang, an incoming call made Anna flinch.

Not from Nicho but from the "Handsome Man".

Anna then put the cell phone away and buried it on the couch just because she didn't want to hear it ring. Very ridiculous isn't it? Even the pain in her back suddenly disappeared when the name suddenly appeared on the screen.

But in just a few seconds, she returned to her original position, perhaps realizing her silliness?

Until the call ended, Anna did not pick up.

A few minutes later, her cell phone rang again, but this time it was different, it was Nicho who made the call.

"Hello..." A voice came from the other side.

"Hello, Nico."

"Anna? Is it you?" the response from the other side with a tone of voice that sounded as if he couldn't believe it. Once upon a time, Nicho wanted to buy Anna a cell phone but the woman refused. Not only once, but the reason also is that she doesn't need it yet, and because she only stays at home, she said a landline is enough.

"Right," replied Anna shortly.

"Is this your number? Or..."

"Yes, this is my contact," answered Anna immediately.

"Finally you have a cell phone," Nicho sounded very happy.

"Erm, am I bothering you?" asked Anna again.

"Of course not, honey. I just got to the apartment."

"Stop calling me that, Nicho," Anna replied, she felt uncomfortable every time Nicho called her that.

"So why? Ah yes, why haven't you slept yet? It's late in there, isn't it?"

"I'm still not sleepy, Nicho."

"So, what time is it over there?" asked Anna again.

"At 2 o'clock."

Anna was silent for a moment, glancing at the clock on her wrist which turned out to be eleven o'clock in the evening, she didn't know that the time gap between Indonesia, or rather in the city she lived was three hours different from the time where Nicho was.

"Ah then, I'll call you later."

"Why is that? Are you going to bed already?"

"No, not me. But you," Anna replied again.

"Tsk, you're worried about me?"

"No."

"Then don't turn it off."

"What are you doing now?" asked Anna again.

"Nothing, just sit back and relax."

"How are you doing today?" Asked Anna again small talk.

"I am fine."

"What about Naila? She takes good care of Dave, doesn't she?" added Nico.

"Erm, I like her too. Now we're even friends."

"Is that true?"

"Yes."

"Good, I was worried if she did something you don't like."

"No, he's a good boy."

And their conversation continued, Nicho then told Anna everything he encountered in that country, how Australians are, how the environment in which he lives, and the like.

Without realizing they had been talking for over an hour, and Anna began to feel sleepy.

"It's very late, you should sleep now," said Nicho after finishing his story.

"Okay, you too," replied Anna.

"Usually, what time are you home?" Nicho asked before hanging up the phone.

"Uncertain, sometimes six or seven o'clock in the evening," answered Anna. "Why?"

"It's okay, I just wanted to know," replied Nicho again.

"Then that's it," replied Anna.

"Okay, take good care of yourself."

"You too." And after that, the call ends.

Anna felt her eyelids start to get heavy.

***

Drrttt…Drrtt…

Suddenly, Anna jumped in surprise. She almost threw the flat-shaped object out of her hand. The reason is, she has just activated vibrate mode on her cellphone and wants to go to her room to sleep.

The drowsiness she felt suddenly disappeared when she saw the contact name listed on the screen.

'Handsome Man' again. Why does Devan keep calling her? Even until this late. Does he not understand privacy?

Anna ignored the call, slowly she started up the stairs. Her current vision was very clear, in contrast to her feelings which had suddenly turned erratic.

Her phone stopped vibrating, and at the same time, Anna breathed a sigh of relief without realizing it.

Entering the room, she immediately lay down next to Dave after kissing her son's forehead.

***

"Mom, wake up..."

Anna faintly heard Dave's voice, Anna slowly opened her eyes.

"Hello dear, good morning," said Anna with a smile on her lips.

"It's noon, Mother."

Anna's brow furrowed, she then looked around to find the clock in the room.

It turned out to be true, it was now ten in the morning. Anna immediately got up from her sleep.

"Calm your feelings first."

"Why did you just wake Mommy, honey? Where's Naila?"

"Aunt Naila is taking a bath, Mom," replied Dave, trying to get into bed but looking a little troubled because of her chubby body.

"Auntie wanted to wake Mom up earlier, but I couldn't," Dave added again breathlessly.

"Eh? Why?"

"Dave saw Mom sleeping so soundly. So, I didn't have the heart to wake Mom up," the boy replied in his trademark voice.

"Really? But now Dave has woken me up," Anna replied.

"Because it's almost lunchtime Mom. I didn't want you to get sick on cause empty stomach."

Anna smiled while rubbing her son's head very gently.

"Okay. Dave had breakfast?" asked Anna again.

"Yes, Mom, was with Aunt Naila."

"Today, just rest at home, Mom, tell your co-workers that you are sick," said Dave again, and that made Anna's smile even more bright. Even at a very young age, Dave was good at giving excuses to other people.

"Alright, darling," replied Anna then grabbed Dave's body, hugged him while kissing his forehead. She did intend to rest today.

"Dave…" someone called out to the boy, hearing from its voice it seemed like it was coming from downstairs.

"Dave, where are you, honey?"

"Mom, let's go downstairs. Aunt Naila is looking for me," said Dave.

Anna nodded.

"I am here Aunty," Dave shouted right after leaving the room.

One of his hands gripped his mother's, walking ahead as if he was leading Anna.
