Chapter six- You're such a sore loser
"Hey wake up, we are here," Jason said shaking my shoulders.
I rubbed my eyes sleepily, I was still not fully awake.
"Where are we?" I asked still feeling dazed.
"We are in Spain."
"What?" I jerked up fully awake and aware of my surroundings.
Jason just shook his head and laughed.
"Really funny Jason," I said sarcastically.
"We're in my house, welcome to my humble abode," he said, with his eyes still twinkling with amusement.
I looked around the house, wow the house was really huge. The driveway was very vast with a huge fountain in the middle. I would have loved to look around but I was very tired. I will just look around tomorrow.
"Wow your house is really nice, but I am way too tired to look around, just show me around tomorrow," I said voicing out my thoughts.
"Sure no problem." He shrugged nonchalantly.
When it looked like we weren't going to enter the house soon, I knew I had to speak up.
"Not to be rude, but Jason how much longer till I get a bed?
I'm dead on my feet and the couch sure looks comfy right now."
"I have only known you for some hours, but I can say I know one true fact about you. You are such a dramatist."
"No, I'm not," I argued, vehemently as I followed him into the house.
He just chuckled, as he went upstairs with me trailing behind him.
"Well this is your room, he said as he pointed to a door and my room is the one opposite.
Should you need anything, just knock on the door and I will oblige your demand." He said as he wriggled his eyebrows suggestively.
"Oh no, you didn't just think of that," I said as I tapped him at the back of his head.
"Ouch, keep your hands to yourself woman." He said rubbing the back of his head.
"Yeah, I will when you get your mind out of the gutter."
"I didn't suggest anything unless Mia ain't such a good girl." He said chuckling.
My face just reddened with embarrassment, Jason is just so annoying.
One of these days I may just strangle him and dump his body on the highway.
"Arghh, well good night," I said as I entered my room feeling frustrated.
"Remember my suggestion," he said, laughing loudly as he entered his room.
My room had a white wall highlighting the gold walls and a king-size bed, accompanied with an ensuite and a walk-in closet. It had a large window with a window seat, which would be great for relaxing. The view of the outside of my room was simply wonderful. It looked like a huge estate.
Damn! He had money, we were rich but not this rich.
I researched on Jason last night. No, I'm not a stalker, I just didn't want to leave with a stranger for thirty days.
I don't know how Jason did it but the internet reporters only had his picture of ten years ago. He really tried in keeping himself anonymous.
The reports only talked on the chains of companies he owns.
I just got to know Jason and it feels like I have known him my entire life. He isn't even pompous like those total cliche billionaires and arrogant.
A little arrogant at first maybe. But we have resolved that.
Even the easy banter between us doesn't even exist between me and Dayne. Dayne and I even have a five-year relationship and I was comparing it to a one-day friendship.
Wow, I must be going insane!
I just showered and changed to my nightwear.
I was so tired that I fell asleep immediately my head hit the pillow.
When I woke up in the morning, I couldn't find anyone in the hallway. I didn't know anywhere around and Jason wasn't in his room.
I was contemplating on what to do when I spotted a woman in the hallway.
"Hey please excuse me."
She turned around as I eyes lit in recognition.
"Good morning ma'am, you must be Miss mia right?"
"Right?" I responded more like a question feeling confused
Noticing the confused look I was giving her, she explained further.
"Sorry forgive my manners, I'm Ma'am Pagnole the Cook."
"Ohh yeah, Philip told me about you. Nice to meet you."
"I could say the same ma'am."
"What about Alice?" I said remembering Philip told me there were two cooks.
"She is not back from her leave, but she'll be back soon."
"Okay, no problem."
"Sir Jason told me to show you around since he had an important business call this morning. Which is why I am here in the first place."
That's so nice of Jason he still remembered his promise to me.
"Well lead the way and I will follow."
She showed me around the house, everywhere was really huge.
Now I understood why Philip called it a mansion, but what I was really fascinated about was that Jason had three Jacuzzi and two swimming pools. The living room had a magnificent Chandelier and various priceless artifacts.
There were about twenty rooms. I stopped counting after twenty-four.
The library was huge with so many books in English, Italian, French, Dutch and some other languages I didn't know. I'll ask Jason how many languages can he speak.
The passage was decorated with various works of arts even antique vases.
Mental note not to break any antique vase.
"That's all ma'am."
"No, that's not all."
"Huh?" She asked feeling confused.
"You haven't shown me the most important place in the house."
"And where is that ma'am?"
"The kitchen of course, where those tasty and heavenly goodness is prepared, "I said dreamily.
Ma'am Pagnole just laughed and muttered about me being dramatic.
Maybe Jason was right, I was truly dramatic.
For three days I didn't see Jason, he was out before I woke up and back after I have gone to bed.
Which is why I was surprised to see him on the fourth day.
I woke up and suddenly felt really thirsty.
So I walked to the kitchen to drink water.
"Good morning Mia." Someone greeted me from behind me.
The bottle just fell from my hand as I put my hand on my chest.
"Don't you ever do that again, You scared the life out of me," I said breathing heavily.
"You're just so dramatic."
"Whatever....why are you home?"
"You mean I can't be in my own house again." He asked, looking amused.
"That's not what I meant and I'm sure you know that."
"Relax Mia just pulling your legs.
I promised to make you have lots of fun so I decided not to work today, too bad the weather just had to spoil my plans." He said, looking outside as it drizzled.
"Being a boss is good, you just get to decide when not to work."
Jason just smiled sheepishly
"Yeah...I guess. So what do you want to do?"
"Well....." I said as I put my finger on my chin thinking.
"Well?"
"We could play card games so I can whip your ass."
"You think?" He asked grinning mischievously.
"Yeah, what does a billionaire know about card games?"
But Jason knew everything about card games, he whipped my ass till the sixth round.
"Card games ain't my thing," I said making an excuse.
"Says the girl, who says she will win the game."
"Let's just play chess, I'll be sure to win that. Get ready to cry, mister."
"Ok no problem, let me get my tissues ready." He said sarcastically.
Jason still won two rounds of chess.
"Ok, that's it. You're so cheating Jason. How can you win all the games?" I asked narrowing my eyes in slits. I am definitely suspicious.
"That comes with being a Pro honey." He said grinning.
"I so do not agree."
"Just admit to it Mia, I won fair and square."
"I will not admit to such a thing."
"You're such a sore loser."
"You wouldn't say that if you were the one whose ass was whipped," I said as I scowled.
Jason just kept laughing at me, as I kept scowling.
"Ok, the last game, let's play hide and seek."
"Really Mia?" He said looking at me like I miraculously changed to a toddler.
"Yeah and I'm so winning this one. Just count to sixty and I'll go hide."
"Ok" He agreed to grumble.
"Don't cheat, and close your eyes while counting"
I yelled as I ran upstairs looking for where to hide, my closet looked like the best option so I hid there.
Barely two minutes Jason opened the door to my room.
Please don't search the closet, please don't search the closet. I chanted in my mind.
"Gotcha," Jason said laughing as he opened the closet.
"How is this even possible?"
I said groaning
"Well... I first thought where will narrow-minded Mia hide?" He said while putting his finger on his chin.
I looked at him angrily.
"I am not narrow-minded."
"You are Mia, who hides in the closet?..... It's like the most obvious place to search first."
"Whatever, Mr smarty pants.
Go hide while I count." I said shooing him away.
I searched everywhere I could think of for Jason, but I still couldn't find him.
Where in the world could he be hiding?
I was still searching when a thought came to me, why don't I leave him where he is?
When he's tired of hiding he will come out.
That's payback for winning all the games and for calling me narrow-minded.
I went to the kitchen and took the lasagna and a cup of juice.
I switched on the television and started watching Baywatch.
I was almost done with the movie when Jason appeared.
Noticing the food and the movie I was watching, he groaned.
"You really didn't search did you?" He said looking more amused than angry.
"What can I say?.... Payback is a bitch" I said chuckling.
There you have it.
