Good morning Boss …i greeted him cheerfully.Morning ..he barely replied as he looked straight at me .Here are the document,I handed carefully to him ,as he glanced through it .
I never knew you could get a thing right ,he said, mocking me.It alright…i mouthed, folding my arms.can I take my leave? ,I asked for permission.sure…he replied shortly,as he kept his eyes fixed on whatever it is he was doing .
Hey …he called back as I was about to leave,that reminds me .Here …take this ,he pushed forward a photocopied paper to me .In there is whatever you need to know and prepare for .By 2pm,we will be meeting with a client ,so I need you to get ready and waste no time in preparing,he added strictly.
Taking a seat ,I began scanning through the paper ,but I swear ,I couldn't get a thing right ,i dont know maybe it was as a result of the sudden meeting I have to follow the boss to .Only few information were written on the paper ;the client name ,the location ,her deal and some personal stuff .i weakly sighed as I was still confused as to why he needed me to tag along .Wasn't he and his personal assistant always attending to stuff like that ,he never called me for such thing.ohhh…i get it now ,I said recalling I had seen the P.A exit the company right before I started for today .
(2pm)~~~~~~~~~
I had been continuously staring at my wristwatch to keep trail of time .After several unrest I felt moving around the room ,the watch ticked indicating it was 2pm already .
Hi sir …I said on the speaker ,it is 2pm ,I reminded him .I am aware ,he flatly said.ohhh…I thought you had forgotten.Not everyone is like you ,who tends to forget little things easily ,he mocked.Was that necessary?i hissed in my mind like a snake .Just wait at the garage ,I will be there shortly ,he assured as he hang up on me.
Sir …hello!!..hello ,i continuously called without receiving a reply …shit !!!the preek head hung up on me ,he couldn't even let me start with what I was about to say,I groaned frustrated.
Packing up few things ,I felt it would be necessary for the meeting ,I exited the office as I headed to the elevator.
Inputting the floor number on the elevator button,I waited for it to close.Again I tried closing and pressing ,but all went in vain ,the door refused to close .over the past few days ,I had sense ,the elevator was getting faulty,I notice it had issues ,but I had shrugged it off ,thinking it wasn't really that important to mention.
Leaving me with no choice ,i resolve to the last solution I had at hand ,and that was...
What the fuck are you still doing here ?the ceo asked looking surprised asif he had seen a ghost .I remembered telling you to wait at the garage ,he pointed out .
And what the hell are you still waiting for standing in front of me ? Sir …it is the elevator.can you just cut to the chase ,why are you speaking like some kindergarten,he voiced annoyed .It refused to pick up ,it has fault ,I quickly narrate to him.
And so ….what happened to the stairs ?he asked with an "i don't care face expression ".S…Stairs?yes ..stairs ,he suddenly throwed out of the blue.It fine ..i accepted ,I will meet you soon,I said with a swollen face,as I begin walking to the stairs direction.
Shit !!!!I heard him suddenly talk ,was he cursing me or what ?I asked with my back turned against him.Get in here ,I suddenly heard him say even though it wasn't loud ,but it was enough for me to hear .
Are you a fucking moron ,I said get in here ,he angrily shouted as he dragged me by my shirt collar,pulling me into his personal elevator.
Careful boss ….I cried out holding his hand that was tugging at my cloth ,as he had mistakenly pulled my hair ,together with the shirt collar ,leaving a sting on the part he pulled .
Are you a cancer patient ?he asked horrified,as he looked at his hand that had just left my back .Ahhh …he scoffed ,staring at the plenty hair that was in his hand.
Use your little time well ,make sure to fulfill your 100 wishlist .He mysteriously mentioned as his gazed moved to my head and then to my face .
No…it nothing of such ,I defended .it isn't at all ,I quickly replied him as I straightened up while I also arranged my hair that has become rough due to his sudden pull.By the way ..is he wishing me death ,I poked at the last statement he had said.
After we both spend 10 silent minute ,stealing glances at one another ,without the other being aware and the awkward cough sound ,randomly made by me .
We got to the garage and I didn't know when I heaved a deep sigh of relief.if you keep on heaving like that I wonder how many days, that will be minus from your little short life ,he said as he moved to where his car was,while I just looked at him as I also walked to where mine was.
Are you even in your right sense?I heard him speaker ,making me turn my back to look at him.will you get into the goddamn car or will just stay there ,staring like a fucking psycho ,he angrily voiced as he threatened to leave me behind .
Do you seriously think I will let you drive alongside me with that dungeon car of yours ,he mocked.
Ouchhh"the arrow he sent hitter me in the right spot ,making my heart hurt" .
What to do ? I mouthed as I sat in the passenger seat ,putting on my seat belt .
Hey ,we heard someone called from afar ,raising her hand up to indicate the seat she had reserved for the meeting.
Fancy seeing you Aiden,the lady greeted the ceo ,while I took my time to stare at her ,she was pretty ,with her short hair that neatly flowed along her neck ,she will be around 30…to ..35 ,within that age range ,I randomly guessed.
It a pleasure to finally see your beautiful face ,the ceo replied her greeting ."Hummm ,Hunn…I coughed" at the CEO's awful flirting style .Are you okay ,the woman asked concern ,urging me to take the water that was on the table .Thank you I smiled ,as I gulped the water down my throat.
She is my new secretary,the ceo introduced ,seeing the woman curious eyes that were on me .Ohh ..is she !!! She is really pretty ,she complimented looking at my face ,making my pink sisters appear at the both side of my round cheek.You think so …the ceo laughed.
You think. ..So too ,the ceo suddenly say backing it up with an hurried uneasy laughter ,turning it into a joke after he had sense the atmosphere blaring up .
Okay so …the woman began speaking as their conversation commenced ,which I just kept my eyes fixed on the furniture infront of my eyes .it was my first time and I could say the owner of the building has a really creative style.
Or what do you think ?came in the sudden question the woman throwed at me ,who wasn't following up.closing the file she had opened ,she placed it in her brief case ,while she fold her arm ,resting her back on the wooden chair ,while looking at me asif i was some kind of pastor who was going to give a sermon .
Ahh..I think that's a great idea ,I said treading carefully as I hoped that was their conversation and I wasn't spouting gibberish.
Hummm..the lady shifted in her seat while, also locking eyes with the ceo .ouuuuuch…I cried over the sting I felt on my thighs .The ceo had aggressively pinched me .
Uhhmmm yeah …in this kind of fast rising economy we live ,Every human ,both male and female is after having everlasting good looks.They sort out to use things that will hide their aging look ,wrinkles and likewise everyone wants to have a smooth permanent clear skin ,free of aging .so..if we could create natural beauty product ,that can help clear the problems,such as acne ,wrinkles,aging ,reactions ,just like our aim to the society ,it will win the heart of the people.just as your concerned earlier ,about the growing rate of the artificial resolve for beauty in the society ,which you think is diverting the people's attention from what we tryna create .People are entitled to their right to free will and do whatsoever they want with their body .
Another question here is that ;how many people can afford aritificial beauty ?Although ,we can't move flesh and bones to fix looks ,but atleast we can make similar things ,even if it is only for the skin .
Wasaaahhhh,she clapped ,not letting me finish with my words . You are really brilliant and even pretty ,she complimented holding my hands that were on the table.
If you don't mind ,can I use her as a model for my upcoming brand ,set to be released soon ,she asked the ceo for confirmation.it all lies in her hand ,he said shortly,without sparing me a look ,leaving me in a dilemma state.
Our ride back to the company was utterly silent ,no one looked at each other ,he kept his eyes fixed on the road while I kept mine outside the window,admiring the vibrant city.
Who does he think he is ?Aura for Aura,i smirked .
