“Hmm, no raise! Okay Mike, I will continue being your slave. But one day, the competition might come for me and then?” She told him slyly and Mike laughed once again.
That’s another thing, apart from being his competent secretary, Stella has a good dose of humour and she was one of the few he could count on. Having worked with him for several years, Mike did trust her judgments and she had never been wrong whenever he asked her opinion on a sensitive matter, like he was doing now.
“So tell me dear Mike, what is that thing you wish to ask me?” She said.
“Well, having gotten a rejection from Liza, I’m confused at whom to interview for the position.”
“Well, we can start by checking for your expectatio

Having decided it’s best to forget the incident that took place at her flat and move on, Liza realised it would be for her own good to resume work the following day. She knew for a fact Mike didn’t make empty threats, and she wasn’t ready for another confrontation should he decide to come back for another visit. So, here she is, walking into her office the next day with trepidation and a prayer not to barge into Mike or any of the staff members. She really doesn’t want to answer any curious questions about her supposed health. But of course, luck wasn’t on her side as the first person she saw upon entering her office was Stella. Her kind but inquisitive boss. “Oh, there you are dear. How are you feeling now? I wasn’t expecting to see you so soon after the call we received yesterday.” She told her. “Good morning Stella!

Sitting at his desk, Mike steepled his fingers together on the table while he awaited Liza’s response to his command. Having spent the whole day interviewing different people for the position of his PA, he was beyond irritated to find none of them competent for the position. They were all nice hardworking men, but only in their fields. Most of them didn’t have an idea of what it meant to be a personal assistant to the MD. The necessary sauce needed to discuss a deal with a prospective client, and most of all, the charisma of trust and capability was just not there. They all lacked that thing his former PA possessed. That special thing Liza has in abundance. Charisma! And there came his problem. He knew part of the reason he was finding it hard to get a replacement was because his heart was already made up with Liza. She’

“B...bu…but, Mr. Stanford, I...I...don’t.” She stopped in mid talk as Mike brought his face closer and gave her a deep punishable kiss. He kissed her and kissed her till she made a pleading sound, which he took for an apology. Only then did he raise his head to stare into her deep bottomless eyes. “That was punishment for thinking you can start with that Mr. Stanford nonsense. I have always been Mike to you and it will continue that way. Now have your seat and let’s discuss the terms and conditions that comes with your new position.” “Mind you, the only thing negotiable is your salary. Every other thing will be on my terms and rules.” He told her with a mocking smile. Feeling like a lamb on the sacrificial altar, Liza walked to take a seat while wondering what she did to deserve such punishment from him.

Entering the house in the evening, Liza was surprised to see Tom in the house. Not just in the house, but in the kitchen, cooking something on the stove. Inhaling deeply, she smiled. “What do we have here?” She asked with a laugh and Tom turned with a boyish smile on his face. “Hmm, nothing much. Just decided to make us a simple meal of pasta for dinner.” He told her. “Sounds fun. Can I help?” She asked. “No! This is on me. I want to do this for us. Just take yourself to the bedroom and have a shower. The table should be set before you’re out.” He told her with a kiss to her forehead as he pushed her jokingly outta the kitchen. Laughing joyfully, Liza took a run up the stairs. What a welcome surprise! Since their discussion on marriage, Tom has changed for good and she couldn’t help but thank the Heavens. &

When your instinct tells you something, LISTEN . . .! ***** Tom was out of the flat some minutes later with a big bag and small case containing all the important things he held dear. Zipping the bags tightly to his power bike, Tom left the flat and the unconscious Liza with it as he rode out of the city as if the fury of hell is on his heels. For the first time in his life, he was scared, scared he might have gone too far. Scared for his life and what’s more, scared for Liza’s life. He might have killed her for all he knew. And over what? Over an issue they could have discussed. He honestly love Liza but he just cannot control his anger no matter how well he tried. Take for instance this evening, he had come home earlier than usual and have decided to surprise Liza by making her a simple dinner, having slept the other night with no food in he

Fear may sometimes help you to put things into perspective. . . ****** Heaven is Liza! Liza is heaven! With this wonderful thought, Mike removed Liza’s clothes as he laid her on his kitchen table like a sacrificial lamb; Raising her juicy below to his mouth, Mike tantalised and teased with his tongue till Liza begged for mercy. Deciding he has tormented her enough, Mike surrendered by putting his tongue deep inside of her to suckle her juice for all he was worth. Sucking and licking her honey pot simultaneously, Mike put his hand on her clitoris and with a flick of his finger, Liza buckled as she released all her juice into his mouth. Licking her up for all he was worth, Mike tasted all her essence and with a groan of satisfaction, he slid into her honey pot with a move that was smooth and deep, Liza gave a small scream deep

The urge to protect your woman is sometimes stronger than the law. . .******“Wh..wha...what di..did you do to her? Oh don’t bother answering that. I’m calling the police, you can explain to them?” He told the woman harshly as he fetched his phone to call the police.“Me? Police? But I didn’t do anything. I met her like this.” She explained in a shaky voice but the disturbed man paid her no attention. He was busy pacing as he speak into his phone.Suzanne stood in stupefaction. In all her worries to get Liza to the hospital as soon as possible, she honestly hadn’t consider the fact that she might be accused of such disastrous act. Now hearing this man talking to the police and accusing her of crimes she didn’t commit, she wanted to wail.But she cannot affor

Love never announces it coming; it crawls in like a thief. . .******Seeing that she looked faint, Officer Bruce moved Suzanne to the hospital’s chair to have a seat. Then he crouched beside her chair.“And that’s all? Are you saying you expect us to believe this?” He asked her.“Why not! It’s the truth.” She told him frowningly.“Well, that’s left for the police to decide. We will need you to come to the station with us for an official pen down and then we would carry out our investigation. Your story is hard to believe, ma'am.” He told her in a soft tone.“Unfortunately, I believe her. She has no reason to lie. Besides, I’m sure she said the truth and if I had been calm enough, I would have known the answer to my questions.&rdqu

A good ending for all… ****** Two weeks Later, Mike sent a bunch of flowers to Tom’s room at the hospital, having heard he was responding to treatment and would soon be discharged. He had also heard that with the help of his father’s team, his father was flown to London to be with his son at his critical moment. Mike felt for them but he knew they would get through it and survive together. That’s just life! It will throw you but if you are willing to stand again, everything will work out. Liza had heard him on the phone when he was ordering for the flowers and she had thought the flowers were to wish Tom a quick recovery and to also cheer him up. But only Mike knew that the real reason he sent the beautiful bunch of flowers was to silently thank Tom for indirectly bringing them back together. By pointing out some home truths to Liza, he made her see what she should have known, ‘That Mike would always be there for her’. For that alone, it shows the guy had some redeeming trait

We all deserve genuine love… ****** For long moments, they looked into each other’s eyes with trusting eyes that suddenly turned passionate. Mike’s eyes flared with a knowing light and Liza gave an unconscious gasp. Mike grinned as he lightly pushed her to continue walking to the car! “You always seem to be surprised every time I make my love and passion obvious, why?” He had always wanted to ask her. “I don’t know, Mike. Maybe because I never truly believed you could really love me, so I am always surprised when I see the evidence of it.” She admitted softly. Mike did not say anything to that as he opened the door for her to go in. Then he circled the car to join her and only then did he turn to look at her. “But that’s bullshit, babe. I have been showing you nothing but my love since we started dating.” Mike reminded her. “I know, Mike, but I guess it was just hard for me to believe and understand. I mean, I grew up without knowing much love, so how would I have recognized i

Give an option of doubt…*****Putting the phone back into his pocket, Mike turned to go back to Liza and that was when he saw her, watching him with a dazed look.“You heard everything, right?” Tiredly, he asked her, unable to hide it again.Liza nodded slowly.“I am sorry, Liza, but it is not what you think. I can explain, okay?” Mike was worried she might misunderstand.Again, Liza nodded slowly.“I am sure you have a reasonable explanation Mike and I promise to listen without judging you.” Liza acknowledged softly.Relieved, Mike nodded as he walked to her.“Thank you. I promise to tell you everything without hiding a word.” He embraced her soft body to him, knowing that he needed the warmth.Liza accepted his words and actions with a smile as she returned his embrace.******The following morning, Liza and Mike walked out of the old building with Martha who was holding tightly to the purple eyed, immensely bruised Tom.His left eyes were almost closed and Liza feared he might nev

Be honest with your loved ones… ******* What happened the next moment was so sudden, Mike was sure he was about to have a heart failure. “Oh my God—Oh my God—-Oh my God.” Liza kept crying. Recovering himself, Mike quickly left his seat to hold onto her shoulders. “Liza? Are you okay? Talk to me.” He saw the distressful emotion she was in and he could not bear it. It’s a fact that whatever affected Liza would get to Mike. Her joy and sadness were equally part of him. “I totally forgot, Mike. I did not mean to, but I forgot. I am a bad person. A very bad evil lady.” She cried softly while holding onto him. “Whatever it is Liza, we will get through it together, but I will not accept any disparaging word on your person. You are not a bad person and neither are you evil. So right now, I want you to take a deep breath and tell me what this is all about.” A little bit calmed by Mike’s reasonable voice, Liza took a calming breath. “It’s Tom, Mike, I totally forgot about him.” Liza exp

Apologies don't make you less of a man… **** Helping each other to dress up four hours later after a short nap on his office sofa bed, Liza sent a smug smile across to Mike. “You need to apologise to your staff Mike, they did not deserve the treatments you have been melting out on them.” Liza pointed out and Mike groaned. He did not have to ask Liza, he should have known Stella would tell her all about it. “I am serious, Mike, you need to apologise. Just imagine if any of your staff is acting unprofessional just because they are going through a lot at home. Would you accept that, even if you try to be understanding towards their plight?” Liza demanded to know. “I am the boss, Liza, it is different.” He pointed out arrogantly, trying to cover up. but he knew she was right. ‘That’s the thing about Liza, she was always almost right.’ He thought fondly with another groan. “No Mike, there is nothing different about it. They are humans and if you are truly the man I know you to be, I

A forgiving spirit is a kind one…*******Typing furiously away at her system while equally muttering furiously to herself, Stella was not aware of the person at her desk until she heard a chuckle which made her jump in fright.“Is the building on fire or what?” Liza asked with an amused gaze while watching the different emotions flashing across the face of her former senior colleague.“Liza Stanford, you scared me.” Stella cried, turning her full glare on the innocent Liza.“Uh oh wow, take it easy with the glare okay? I’m innocent of whatever the crime was.” Chuckling, she raised her hands in mock surrender.Stella snorted, unimpressed.Innocent her foot! Whatever their boss was going through, Stella knew Liza had a hand in it and even if it’s not in Stella’s place to say it out loud, she just hoped they could settle whatever it was between them.Having been married for several years now, she knew it was not always smooth sailing between couples.Just look at her and her husband Leo

Correct your mistakes once you know it… ******At the other end, Liza kept staring at the silent phone in her hand. Mike had dropped the call. Without telling her it was a joke. Which meant that truly, he was pushing for a divorce? ‘No way! Over my dead body.’ She swore violently as she ran to the bathroom. Almost tearing off the clothes on her body, she hurriedly lathered the washing clothes with soap as she switched on the shower, full blast. Dressing with haste, five minutes later, Liza was walking down the stairs, smartly dressed in one of her office clothes. But before she could cover the last step, one of the maids walked in from the hallway to greet her respectfully. “Good afternoon, Mrs. Stanford.” “Good afternoon Mary. I am on my way out and I might not be back for a while.” She said in a distracted tone while checking her bag to make certain she had all she wanted. “Oh okay Madam, but I was just on my way upstairs to tell you there is a visitor at the door asking fo

A disappointed heart is always heavy…****Glaring fiercely at the door of his office, willing any of his staff to walk through the door so he could at least have an excuse to vent his frustrations, his eyes caught the favourite coffee mug on his table and picking it up, he threw it violently at the wall and the smashing sound gave him a momentary satisfaction.At that exact moment, the Head of Sales Department was on his way to discuss the latest marketing pitch with the boss after deciding to brave the lion’s then. Even his colleagues had teased him when he casually told them he was in to see the boss.There had been teasing calls about his head and they had all laughed, saying by the time Mike Stanford was done blasting him off, his considered small head would become bigger as it rolled on the floor. Someone had even said he was sure he would come out without his tongue in his mouth.Of course, he had scoffed disdainfully, not giving them the chance to see his fear.Only the Head o

The surprise package…*****Liza dismissed the maid and, turning with a determined step, she hurriedly walked to the door just as the person pressed the bell again. Liza groaned ferociously as she pulled the chain from the back of the door.“Who the hell are you that you want to bring down the whole house just to get what you want?” Liza blasted the person with furious eyes even before the door was completely open.The short bald man that was standing at the door blinked owlishly up at her, surprised by the unexpected attack.“I—I didn’t--hmm aha…” The man stopped coughing slightly but when he took a little glance up, he saw Liza was still furious, so he dropped his eyes to try again.“I—I’m—sorry madam. I was just trying to do my job.” He stammered in a voice that was a bit scared.Liza glared the more upon hearing this silly talk. “Excuse me? You mean your job is to disturb my peace?” “No—No—of—course not, madam. I was just trying to get the attention of whoever is in the house.” H
