𝐒𝐖𝐈𝐅𝐓𝐙 𝐇𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐋

9:30𝐀𝐌 ^ 𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐌 5 ~ 4𝐓𝐇 𝐒𝐔𝐈𝐓𝐄

The rays of sunlight shone brightly into the large room, two humans could be seen on the large bed as the rays shone on them as well. 

Jasmine stretched her hands yawning tiredly, she brought down her hands to her face, using her palm to block the rays as she slowly sat up. 

She felt extreme pain between her legs, her sight was gradually getting clearer as she adjusted to the brightness within a twinkle of an eye. 

She gasped covering her mouth in shock. She looked around and saw her clothes littered around the room.

Tristan laid on his stomach with the white duvet almost covering all his body an his face was not in her direction. She ignored the hurting pains between her legs, she picked up her clothes and hurriedly put them on running out of the room. 

She got outside, flagged down a taxi, got in and the journey to her house began. She was greatly troubled as she tries to remember how she ended up on the bed with a man. She sighed deeply and brushed it off, placing her head on the headrest.

Jasmine rushed into the building panting, the pains between her legs were not helping matters but that's the least of her problem. She decided to move on, she tried to remember the guy's face but couldn't. She decided to brush off every negative thoughts, her job matters most at that moment. 

She is a receptionist in Tristan's company, one of his companies precisely. She happens to be on duty toda but ended up getting to the office very late. 

She rushed to her post and one of them walked up to her. 

"You're late. Why?". The lady asked and Jasmine sighed. 

"Please, I'm not ready for your nags". Jasmine said arranging the necessary things on the huge table before her. She left her table scattered the previous day with hope of resuming very early today. 

"Do want that to be recorded?". The lady asked with a smirk.

"Just let me be! We all know how punctual I am, something came up, can you let me...." 

She cut short by the greetings of her co-workers, they bow slightly as Tristan walked into the company fully, is two hands tucked into his pocket, part of his air fell on his right eye, covering it entirely, a pod in his left ear and light lip balm on his thin lips. 

Jasmine sensed a bit of familiarity when she beheld his face but couldn't pinpoint where she had seen his face. She was as well gripped by shock when she beheld how cute her boss is. 

Since the very day she began working in his company, she has never set her eyes on her boss, so seeing him for the first time brought out a loud gasp but the only problem is the aura of familiarity coming from him. 

She brushed it off and resumed her work after Tristan has left for his office. 

"It might just be an optical allusion". She muttered scratching her head.

Her co-workers began their usual behavior, they surrounded her table with the smiles of gossip plastered on their faces. Jasmine needs no one to tell her what they need at her table, she badly wants to disappear but that seems like something impossible. 

"Bet it's your first time seeing the boss right?". One of them asked and she nod sharply. 

"I had no idea he is this cute and muscular". Jasmine replied smiling. 

"Oh please! He is way more than that! I wish he can just look at me". Another one said and she sighed out. 

"How can he look at you when he doesn't like females?". Another one fired and they all laughed while the one who spoke earlier glaring at her. 

"Heard he has a fiancee". The sixth lady said grinning. 

"Of course. She is my role model". The fourth one said blushing. 

"Eeww, I don't like her a bit! Too arrogant". The fifth lady blabbed. 

"Or you are jealous she has your dream man?". The third lady snapped chuckling. 

"The boss is literally not my type. I just admire his cute face". The fifth lady argued. 

Jasmine sighed tiredly as she stared at the two ladies arguing like their life depends on it.

She is really not intrested in this gathering, her legs are getting sour from standing for so long, she could have sat her ass down but her seat has been occupied by one of them. 

"Omg!!!!! Natasha (Tristan's Fiancee) just dropped a killer post and she looks so hot in that wine dress". The second lady screamed so loud as her eyes never left her phone. 

The others who likes her as well hurriedly brought out their phones to check the post. Their mouth fell widely open as they almost watered their phones with salivas dripping down from their mouths. 

"Bunch of fools". The fifth lady said rolling her eyes. She is the most arrogant of them all who thinks she is better off than anyone else, she is also the one who do nag at Jasmine.

Jasmine breath out in relief as the lady on her seat stood up. 

"The boss dropped a comment on her post! I'm so jealous right now". The first lady said placing one hand on her cheek. 

All of those made no sense to Jasmine, she only stared at them performing madness and acting crazily over a post. 

"Jasmine join the flow!". The fourth lady said and she smiled lightly. 

"I'll just pass, thanks". Jasmine replied politely with smiles on her face.

"Show off!!". The fifth lady hissed and walked to her seat. 

She brought out a gum, unwrapped it and threw it into her mouth chewing loudly. 

Davis (Tristan's Personal Assistant) suddenly appeared and they all rushed to their seats acting like nothing happened. They are literally scared he might tell on them but he doesn't even have their time. 

He matched towards Jasmine's table who has her head down. He placed a soft knock in her table and she slowly raised her head. 

"The boss sends for you". Davis delivered and left. 

The girls gathered around her table again grinning stupidly. Jasmine ignored them and matched towards his office.
