Elsie turned around and walked a little distance from the place, she looked in the air and felt heart broken. She shook her head and said to herself,“When will you learn your lesson their heart? What destiny? I think it’s the devil’s doing, he just wants me to suffer that’s why he keeps bring pain in person of Oswald in my way.”She sighed and took out her phone and called Rod. He came out to meet her and asked her,“Why don’t you hand it to him yourself when you’ve come this far?”Elsie looked at the wristwatch on her hand and said to him,“I don’t have the time for that, I need to go back to work. After you have handed this to him, he will know I came by.”She turned around and left. Rod looked behind her and wondered the reason behind the cold shoulder but he couldn’t think of anything he had done lately so he thought that she must be really busy.Rod walked back inside and handed the file to him, Oswald looked into the file and looked up at him and then asked,“Who brought this d
They sat face to face, they had both ordered for coffee but Elsie had on her face, a serious expression. She glared at Ford and said to her,“I am really serious about this, help me check it out in company files. This person mustn’t go scout free.”Ford smiled and sipped on his coffee, he raised his eyes and stared at her. When he was done, he only checked his phone. Elsie was confused at his reaction, he wasn’t taking her seriously and she knew it. And so, she took her bag and said to him,“I don’t think you are taking me seriously here. So, I will leave you to accompany your coffee since it seems you only see it here.”Ford stretched his hand and pushed her down. Just as Elsie was about to protest, he looked behind him and smiled, Elsie looked that way as well and saw Oswald walking towards them. When he got there, he swiftly took the cup of coffee in front of Elsie and took a sip from it. He breathed in and gulped it down as if it was the best drink ever.Ford saw his action and sn
Rod looked through the contract that he received from the Alfred group of companies. As he looked through it, he shook his head and confusedly after another look, he took his phone and dialled a number. The person answered on the second ring and he said to him,Sir, I looked through the contract sent from Miss Elsie’s company and there seems to be more mistakes compared to the second one submitted. What should I do about this?The person didn’t answer for some time in a few seconds, he said to Rod,I will be taking over this contract, you don’t have to concern yourself about it anymore.Rod was speechless, he glanced at the phone and kept it back beside his ear, then he thought to himself,Have I heard him wrongly? If he is going to work on this, what about the tons of work on his table?As he was thinking about this, he heard him say,Inform Elsie so you can arrange a meeting for us.Rod’s lips fell open but no words could come out of it.In Elsie’s office, she is busily typing on he
With that thought in mind, Elsie held her burning cheeks and shook her mind of that thought. But her eyes couldn’t leave his wet hair, she gulped done and without thinking, asked him,Do you need help with your hair? You should have dried it before coming out of the washroom. You keep doing that and you will catch a cold.Oswald smiled as he remembered that she would dry his hair anytime he came out of the washroom forgetting to get it dried. He guessed it had become a habit of it and still thought about that even after their divorce. Seeing the smile on Oswald’s face, Elsie shook her head again as she realized what she had said out of thought.She looked down and held the bag in her hands tightly as she squeezed her face. Oswald saw that she was nervous and regretted her words, this made the smile on his face deepen as he thought,I didn’t know you were this cute. Your actions depict your thoughts so much.He walked away from the door and said to her to walk in, he was still by the d
Oswald watched the lady who hadn’t realized what she said and he said to her to make her understand her words,Yes, we shouldn’t have divorced in the first place, our actions were rather rushed.Elsie looked up at him and recalled her words for him to answer in such a surprising way. When she did, she quickly took the glass of water on the table and gulped it down noisily. She shook her head and didn’t want to speak to Oswald again as she thought to herself,I seem to be uttering nonsense every time that I speak to him without thinking.Oswald also knew that she was feeling embarrassed and didn’t say anything anymore. Their meal was served and they both ate in silence. After Elsie was done with hers, she stood up and said to him,I will be leaving first, I need to put things together in the contract and I also have other things to do.Oswald looked up at her to speak but she was already walking away in hurry. He sighed and thought,How adorable. She’s really someone that I am getting
Elsie smiled inwardly and felt relieved that she hadn’t mentioned it first. She thought to herself,I was thinking of how to bring it up him. He has really saved me from thinking this through.It’s also good that you called, you wouldn’t be bothered about if I am okay with it or not. You can go ahead and choose another day.This was a fast agreement for Oswald, as he wasn’t expecting her to agree so soon. He stared at her and deduced that, she might have other things to do that day. He stared at her and wondered what she had to do that was so important that she didn’t think about the contract that she had tried do hard to get. He sighed and didn’t feel good about it but there was nothing he could do.He got up and said to her,Since we can’t make it that day, let’s meet the day afterwards. I’m sorry for asking you here on a short notice and for something meagre.Elsie smiled and shook her head. She got up and left without a word. Oswald watched her leave as he thought about the reason
The voice felt very familiar, Elsie felt she didn’t have to look back to know it was him, Oswald. She suddenly felt uncomfortable, as she felt she had been caught by him. But then, she thought about the reason he had come to the place for events. Was he coming to see the show as well?No, he isn’t someone to attend shows as leisure. Then, oh! He is preparing for his engagement isn’t he? I guess he is here to check it out. She thoughtElsie sighed and responded to him turning to look at him,I have lost my ear ring and that’s what I am looking for.Oswald nodded his head and then said to her,Then can I help you find it? I am not doing anything right now.Elsie shrugged and said thanks and then continued with her search. They searched the corridor but couldn’t find it. Elsie stopped looking and stood with her hands on her waist looking devastated. Oswald smiled and asked her,You are not giving up yet right? Let’s retrace your steps some more.Before Elsie could say anything, he had mo
The show had started and Elsie was the only one that sat on the front role. She kept sighing and looking around waiting for someone to join her on the front seat. But the show was already ongoing yet no one but her was there. She looked around to see if there was any empty seat that she could occupy, she didn’t see any available. Just as she was about to leave the seat, she felt a presence, the person sat beside her and she stopped standing up.She looked beside her and saw that that it was Oswald, she sighed inwardly and smiled slightly. Oswald smiled as well, he was pleased that he had chosen the manager had given him the ticket of the front row. Elsie looked at him and asked,“Why are you here? I thought you were here for another purpose. You don’t like noisy places, and it’s about to get loud.”Oswald felt happy that she didn’t feel burdened speaking to him in front of the crowd. He smiled and responded to her,“I wanted to have some fun time as well. I heard the crowd from the ot
