Ken turned around with a bothered face when he realised he hadn't called uncle for boss.
-That's suppose to be a secret, unc- I mean boss doesn't like it when I say it at work… could you please forget that you heard that…?
-Hmm… didn't your uncle say that we should get to know each other… and I can't forget now that I know, but I won't tell anyone, so don't worry.
Ken felt relieved but didn't put his guard down just yet, even if his uncle wants them to get along, couldn't Ken fully accept this.
-Listen…-
-William, but call me Will he said with a bright smile.
Ken ignored his heart skipping a beat when he saw Wills smile and to realise that he finally got to learn his name.
-Okay… Will, my uncle wants us to get along and I can agree on that but only as coworkers and nothing more than…-!
Will laughed softly at Kens effort to sound serious.
-Are you maybe referring to what happened last night?
Ken blushed by Will being so blunt about it, he countinued.
-Like I said, you aren't my type.
-Not your type!? Why did you do that then!?
Ken had no idea why he said that out loud and realised he had been yelling, Will's smile had disappeared.
-Sigh… I did it to protect you from those people…!
-About that… what do you mean by those people? cus it really sounds like an excuse to me…
-What...? No, I'm serious! They had their eyes on you, Ken. You were on your own and they saw that, if I hadn't done what I did, then they would probably have followe…-
Ken looked speechless at Will, and a sudden anger boiled up in Ken.
-What!? So you had to kiss me in order to protect me!? well, guess what, I'm doing just fine without your damn help, so stay away from me...!!
Will realised nothing would make the situation any better, he had enough of caring for Ken, and having this onesided discussion to prove themselves.
-Fine! Don't ever expect me to help you again!
-Great!
