She's My Sleeping Pill

Thursday, the sun was shining brightly as if welcoming the new start of someone's life. Erwin wanted to find a place to stay over while working but Cayenne told him to stay in their home while they haven't found anyone to replace him yet. In fact, they weren't really looking for any replacement. They just wanted to let him save more money instead of using it to pay for an apartment.

Right now, Erwin was putting on his new suit and pants, ready to go to work. Stefan and Cayenne was also getting ready to leave the house because they also decided to go to the company with him.

"Madam is really kind." Justin commented while helping Lucia prepare the breakfast. "She didn't hesitate to help other people at all."

"It's because madam experienced poverty herself. That is why she knows how poor people feel." Lucia responded to Justin's statement. "Anyway, let's finish this quickly."

"Hn." Justin helped as much as he can and Lucia's two daughters were also the same. They were more efficient once they're working together. They get more free time once they finish their work as well.

During breakfast, Luiz wasn't around because he fell asleep really late last night. And since it's summer vacation, Cayenne wasn't really strict to their time. And he knew that her brothers are responsible so, she wasn't making a fuss about it.

After breakfast, Erwin was able to use one of the cars at home and drove it to the company, following Cayenne and Stefan.

Starting today, he will be working as the Chief Supervisor of the Company's security and he will handle all security matters. The things that Chris does related to security measure will be handled by him, specially that Chris will be leaving them.

When they arrived at the company, Erwin went to the HR department for formalities and contract signing as well as to get himself familiar with the building. Cayenne and Stefan went directly to the top floor and there, they found Elena working quietly with a piece of chocolate beside her.

Obviously, this little girl skipped breakfast again.

"Good morning, Elena." Cayenne greeted her and gave her the souvenir bag she got for her. "This is for you."

"Really? Thank you, lady boss." She accepted the bag with a lot of delicacies as well as a cute mug which she can definitely use in the office.

"Stop skipping your breakfast. You look so thin already."  Cayenne mentioned in passing before leaving the girl to let her contemplate on these words.

  They found Chris inside Stefan's office, dusting off his things and opening the curtains to let the light come in. "Oh! I didn't know you guys would be coming so early. Did you have breakfast already?" he asked the couple because usually, they won't come so early in the office.

"We already ate. Thanks for asking." Cayenne responded to him while his husband was taking off his suit. "Here's our souvenir for you. There's one for Rissy so, you can give that to her later."

"Thanks.  She'd be very happy to receive this." Chris received the items and walked towards the door. "If you guys need anything, just give ring me up."

"Sure sure."

Stefan didn't need to say anything though because his secretary was really efficient. The documents that needed immediate attention were already piling up on his table. "Looks like I will be buried with work today." Stefan mumbled while checking the documents.

"Do you need help?"

"None so far for these matters."

"Then, I'll go talk with Elena for a while. I might come downstairs to the cafeteria so, endure my absence honey."

And once again, Cayenne left him alone. Thankfully, she's inside the company with more bodyguards this time so he was less worried compared to the time she went to Xena University.

"Don't go out of the company premises, okay?"

"Hn."

"Don't wander alone as well."

"The bodyguards will be with me."

Cayenne was about to leave the room but she felt a flaming gaze directed at her. She turned around and found him looking at his computer which made her frown. "Do you have anything else to tell me?"

"Nothing." Stefan mumbled with obvious distasted in his voice.

Cayenne was thinking really hard what was it that he was unhappy about. She opened the door and stepped out of the office but just as she was about to close it, she realized why he was sulking which made her laugh.

Chris and Elena looked at her and was confused why she was laughing on her own.

Stefan sighed heavily when he didn't get a kiss from her but when he raised his head again, he found his wife walking towards him. "Why are you back? Did you forget something?"

"Yeah. I forgot to give you something." Cayenne smiled and leaned close to him and kissed his forehead. "I'll be right back. So, don't worry about me."

"Just the forehead?"

"Don't be greedy."

"Just give me one more."

Cayenne pinched his face and kissed his lips quickly. "Satisfied?"

"Hn."

"You could have said it earlier. You don't have to sulk."

"But I want you to do it voluntarily."

Cayenne sighed as she rolled her eyes at him. "I'll keep it mind. Anyway, you've a tracker on me so, just be at ease. I'll go now." She gave him one last kiss on his cheek before running out of the office. 'Tsk! How can he be so cute when he sulks?' Cayenne thought to herself and pouted.

She walked towards Elena who was still eating the same chocolate that Cayenne saw earlier. "Chris, I'll take away your assistant for a while. If you have anything for her to do, just let her do it later."

"Sure."

"Where are we going lady boss?" Elena asked while grabbing the remaining chocolates from her table. "Do you want one?"

"Thanks." Cayenne took one piece and ate it while they walked towards the elevator. Two of the bodyguards were following behind them and the other two were walking ahead of them. "We're going to the pantry."

"O-okay." Elena thought that Cayenne wanted to get something to eat. She had no idea that she will be the one eating breakfast.
