Bella’s POV
Its my second day in the office. Mr King has yet to come office and is now is 2pm. I have been sitting in the desk for hours waiting for him. He has some files to sign and he is not in yet. Maybe he is not feeling well. I thought to myself.
I started to type in notes of everything when I heard the lift. I lift up my head to see Mr King. He was walking to his office when he saw and gave me nod which I return.
I gathered the files that were needed to be signed. Just when I was about to go, the phone rang. I picked up to talk when I heard Mr King. “Miss Sanders can you come into my office.” he asked. “I’ll come right away Mr King.” I said as I hung up.
For the first time he let me reply. I chuckled as I took the files. I knocked the and went in when I heard him say ”come in'”. “Good morning Mr King.” I said politely.
He nodded his head. “Mr King you have few files to review and sign.” I said as I gave him the files.
When he took the files from me, his cold hands brushed mine as I shivered. I retrieve it back without him realizing.
He started to go through the files slowly as I waited for him. He was reading each of the carefully and signing them.
Once he was done, he passed the files to me. “Is that all sir?” I asked him. He was staring at me intently before slowly shaking his head. I nodded my head.
Before I turn, I’m sure I saw a pout in his face, but I must be hallucinating. I shook my head and left. I went back to my office and was getting ready to send those files.
As I was arranging the files, the office phone rang. I picked it up, “King’s Consolidation. How may I assist you?” I asked. “Miss Sanders, get me a coffee, would ya.” he asked. “Sure Mr King.” I said as I put down the phone and went to pantry.
I made the coffee just the way he wanted. Once I was done, I went to his office and knocked to which he asked me to come in.
I placed his coffee at his desk as he starts to take sips. “Is that all Mr King?” I asked him. He frowned before nodding his head. As I turn, he called me.
“Actually Miss Sanders, can you read out to me my meetings and schedules.” he asked me. I turn back around. “Yes sure Mr King. Give me a moment I’ll bring my notebook.”
I went back to my office and took my notebook. I went back to his office and start reading his schedules. All the while, he kept staring at me intently. His stare made squirm.
Nonetheless I read finish his schedules. “And that would be it.” I said as I looked up to see he was still staring at me. “Mr King?” I called him. He return from his trance as he shook his head.
I didn’t know why but a slight blush made its way but covered it with my hair. “Thank you Miss Sanders.” he said as I nodded my head and left.
I went back to my seat. 5 minutes later he called me back stating he needs me to take some notes. This how it has been the entire day. Every 5 minutes he’d call me back and I would go in and it would go on half and hour.
But I’m not complaining. This is my job. This what I get paid for. I would not disappoint my boss. It was around 7pm and my work was done. I packed my stuff and got ready to leave. Ava has left as her work finished at 6pm.
As the lift door opened, I went inside and pressed the lobby floor. As the door was closing, I saw Mr King as he was asking me to stop. I tried to stop but it was too late. The door has closed. I sighed as I leaned against the lift. Today was an interesting of a day.
Xavier’s POV
I walked out of the lift to be greeted by Miss Smith. She was one of those good workers. Although once she did try to hit on me and got embarrassed. After that day she never tried it. And I let that slip.
It was almost 2pm. I was dealing with yesterday’s incident so I had to be late. My work was always important to me. I never neglected it.
As I passed her, I saw Bella’s office as she was busy writing down. She is sincere on her work. A small smile almost escaped me when I saw her. She looked cute.
When she heard me, she looked up at me. I was looking at her. I gave her a nod which she return. I went into the office and took my sit as I was thinking of a way to call her in.
I picked up my office phone, and dialled to her phone. “Miss Sanders can you come into my office.” I asked her. “I’ll come right away.” she said as hung up. Few minutes I heard her knock.
I asked her to come in. She brought along some files. “Good morning Mr King.” She said politely. I nodded my head. “Mr King you have few files to review and sign.” She said as she gave me the files.
When she passed me the files I ‘accidently’ brushed my hands with her. I saw her shiver from my touch as she retreated her hands back.
I smirked at that but made sure she never saw it. I started reviewing the files and signed them carefully. I didn’t want what happen yesterday to repeat.
Once that was done I gave her the files. “Is that all?” she asked me. I was staring at her face trying to come up with something for her to stay. But nothing came into my mind. I slowly shook my head.
When she turn around, I almost made a pout. But covered. When she left the office I made a loud sigh. What is going on. Why am I reacting like this?
I pondered on that thought. After a few minutes and gave up. I took my phone and called her. She answered almost immediately.
“King’s Consolidation. How may I assist you?” she asked in her sweet voice. “Miss Sanders get me a coffee, would ya?” I asked her. “Sure Mr King.” she said and she hung up. Within she was knocking my doors.
I called her as she came in. She placed the coffee in my desk. I took few sips of the coffee. As I place the cup, “Is that all, Mr King?” she asked me. I frowned before nodding my head.
As she turn her head, I got an idea. “Actually Miss Sanders, can you read out to me my meetings and schedules.” I asked her. She turn back around.
“Yes sure Mr King. Give me a moment I’ll bring my notebook.” she said as she went off. I was waiting for her when she came back.
She started reading them, but I was not listening to any of them. I kept looking at her. Observing every feature.
Her silky hair. The wrinkles in her forehead when she frowns. Her smooth cheeks. Her small bulb nose her pink soft kissable lips. Her inviting neck. Her-
“Mr King?” I quickly shook my head and got rid of my thoughts. When I looked up, I saw that she was blushing lightly, trying to cover but failed.
“Thank you Miss Sanders” I said as she nodded her head. God! Something is seriously wrong. I have never felt like this. The way she makes me feel, its different. Something new.
I called her in every five minutes. That’s how the entire day went.
At the end of the day, I waited for her. The moment she left her office, I grabbed my stuffs. As I was about to open my door, I realised that I have left my phone. I went back to my desk. I tried to search for my phone when I finally found it.
I rushed out to see that she has taken the lift and the doors were closing. I asked to hold the lift but was too late. The doors closed.
I waited for the lift. I quickly took the lift and went down. I searched for her at the lobby, but I couldn’t find her.
I sighed as I decided to go home.
What the actual hell is going on with me?
