Snow?

Diana’s pov.
“Goodnight, strawberry.”Brian said and placed a peck on my lips after driving me to my house.
“Goodnight? I feel like staying with you tho, I don’t wanna leave.”I pouted.
“Hey,”he cooed and pulled my cheeks softly.
“You aren’t about to cry, are you?”he moved his head closer to have probably to have a closer look of my face.
“No! I don’t cry that easily. Seriously?, why would I even cry?, we are only going to be away from each other for hours, not even up to a day.”I defended, tho deep down, I knew he was right, I was at the verge of crying. After everything he’d done tonight, I don’t wanna be away from him anymore. I want our together till death to start this moment but to hell with the norms, I will have to wait to walk down the aisle with him before that would be officiated.
“Then, I’m hurt. That means you badly want me out of your sight.”he looked sad.
I immediately felt bad that I started crying.
“Babyyy…”I moved over to give him a hug.
“What to do? I don’t think a pack of tissue will be enough to clean your tears.”he chuckled and patted my back.
“Thanks for tonight, honey. You literally attracted all my emotions just like an honey does with bees. Babe, I can’t be thankful enough. You literally made me the happiest girl on earth.”
He disengaged from the hug and looked at me with his lips pressed together, his hands were holding my shoulder.
“I’m glad I did. You’re my girl now, officially, so tell all those guys that keep flirting and sending weeks to you that you’re taken.”
I smiled and nodded.
“I guess you still don’t know how much I love you.”he sighed but suddenly smiles.
Hm?
He isn’t up to no good.
I tried to move away from him but he held on strongly to my shoulders.
He placed his lips on mine, kissing me slowly.
His hand slides to my zipper and my eyes widened.
“No! Brian. In front of my house?, right before my mother? You’re crazy..” I yelled bit then giggled.
“I’m more crazy about you.”he laughed.
I pushed him away and quickly alighted the car.
“Good night.”I waved then went inside.
I met mother in the living room watching the TV and I rushed over to her side.
“Mom, guess what?”I tugged at her left arm.
“Just hit me with the word. I’m not so good at guessing.”she turned to me with a smile.
“Nayyy, just try and guess, who knows, you might guess it right..”I smiled sheepishly.
“Okayy… uhm… you bagged another deal?, or.. you.. eish, just tell me already.”
“Look who got proposed to…”I waved my hand in front of her proudly.
I was expecting a scream of congratulatory message but what I got next shocked me.
“I thought you broke up with him.”I heard her say.
What?
She looked away from me.
“Anyway, that’s useless. You aren’t gonna marry him.”she added.
“What… do you mean?, I don’t get. Aren’t you happy for me?”I batted my lashes.
“You will be getting married to another man, Diana. Just throw that ring away. It’s useless.”
I chuckled ruefully and stood up.
“Fine. I see you’re not so in a good mood before. I’ll come back tomorrow and deliver the news to you.”
“My answer would still be the same.”

Next day.
Morning.
Aysel’s Pov.
I stared at my phone on the table before me, lost in thoughts.
I stretched my hand forward, reaching for the phone but suddenly withdraw it back.
No. I know I probably hurt her with my words but shouldn’t still give me a call?
*You’re the one at fault so you should call first.*my inner mind reminded.
I shook my head vigorously, trying to wave the thought out.
“Aysel!!!”Snow’s sudden call jolts me out of my reverie.
He was all smiles as he walked towards me.
“I found them.”he breathed out.
“Who?”I asked, obviously clueless.
“Our models. Seems the Heaven itself is on our side. Diana got proposed to last night and Lalisa is flying all in today!”he explained.
I paused for a moment to digest all he had just said.
“That sounds good?”my brows perked up.
“It sure is. I suggest we go for Lisa. Do we start from her beautiful skin that glitters like a gold in the sun? Or her small lips?”he fantasized while looking up at the ceiling.
“Yoi sure enjoy passing off comment on women, don’t you?”I asked, narrowing my eyes at him.
He looked at me and grinned.
“All I’m trying to say is that she would be a good model for our soap.”
“I mean, you even know the shape of her lips and all, I see you see beyond the modelling stuff.”I pressed on.
“Of course not. I.. just think she would be a perfect..”he said nervously.
“Who is she by the way?”
“Who, Lisa?, you don’t know Lalisa? Oh, poor Aysel. You’ve missed a lot. She is a queen on almost all the social media. She..”he stopped talking after I passed him a glare.
“Let’s go for Diana.”
“Huh?, why? Lisa…”
“This Lisa, I hate her, so let’s go for Diana.”I placed the tip of my finger on the table.
“I thought you said you didn’t know her so..”
“I just don’t feel good about her. I feel it’s weird also.”
“Okay.”he nodded.
“Let’s switch back to formal tone.”I leaned out of her chair while fishing out a file.
“Just before that happens, here is a cup of Americano and a box of chocolate, you like them a lot. And, oh, the mints!.. they will help refresh your mood.. bet today is gonna be different from all of your days .”
“Hm? I think last night was different from all.. of my days tho.”I uttered, unconsciously, recollecting the memories of the kissing scene with John.
“Last night? Did something happened?”Snow bent a little and whispered.
Ugh, I can’t believe I said that out aloud.
“Hey, no way!”I tried to hide my redenned face.
“No way? So something actually happened?”
“Get lost, Snow.”I said sternly.
“Formal mood activated. Snow, I’m up to something crazy so I would be absent from work for some days. I’m leaving you to this.'”I informed.
“Good luck, ma’am. I’ll make sure i handle the company well in your absence”he stated, uprightly.
“Thanks, but aren’t you gonna ask about what I was going to do?”
“I shouldn’t be concern about that ma’am. For as long you’ve made up your mind, who I’m i to convince you?”
“Even if it brings about my death?”
“Even if it brings about your dea..”he suddenly looks up at me.
“What?”he asked.
“Ugh, Snow. I didn’t know you hate me this much. What?, even if it brings about my death?”I seethed in anger.
“Heyyy, I didn’t even complete that statement. Plus, that is how a worker that doesn’t wanna get fired act.”
“What? You think you won’t get fired by wishing for boss’s death?”
“Nah. You’re quite aware it’s a crazy ride so why try to convince you?..”
At the peak of my anger, i grabbed the coffee and threw it at him.
“Ugh, you and your temper! You will get in it real hot one day because of it”he frowned as he stared at his stained shirt.
I grabbed my phone and bag then moved out.
I went to the underground garage and beeped my car while walking towards it.
I opened it and hopped in then drove out speedily.
Time to go catch some fun.
I didn’t face many difficulties in locating their company all thanks to the map.
I drove inside the building and I must confess, it’s quite huge, a little bigger than mine.
I got down after parking it in the lots and approached the main building.
I got inside and went to the receptionist desk.
“Welcome to DRS, how may we help you today?”
“I would like to see the CEOs.”I informed.
“Oh, do you have any appointments with them before?”
I rolled my eyes and brought out my card from my bag then showed it to her.
“I already booked an appointment.”I lied.
“Oh, miss Aysel. It’s an honor to have you here. The fifth floor please.”
“You have my thanks.”I said before walking away.
I got to the elevator and opened it then stepped in.
Minutes later, it slides opened and I got out.
Just then, my phone started ringing and I paused to shove it out of my bag.
“I’m calling Lalisa in”Snow said immediately I picked up.
“Diana, I said. I was clear enough.”
“But..”
“Oh – oh, Snow. Stop right there. Don’t dare me. I’m the boss here. No Lisa. And you shouldn’t make your glare so obvious.”I scolded.
What’s up with that guy staring at me anyway?
Wait..
He is one of the guys, isn’t he?
Of course!
That explains the stares and greetings he get from the roving workers.
But wait, could he be Snow?
