his heart reached it's breaking point

Parking her car,she alighted the car and took hurried steps towards the company entrance. It was past working hours and only afew people could be seen at the vicinity. Stepping by the lobby, she was about to use the private elevator specifically made for the president when the security guard stopped her.

" Excuse me Miss, you cant use that elevator,please board the common one." The guy politely reminded her but before Mira could answer, Luke, Timothy's personal assistant stepped out of the private elevator.

" Miss Jones,you are here?" He asked obviously relieved seeing her here. He had been requesting his president to stop drinking but he wouldn't listen. He just hoped that she will be able to talk him out of drinking.

" This way please." Luke said ushering Mira to the private elevator. He then turned to the security guard and politely reminded him not to dare stop her next time Incase he sees her there..

Luke knew that Timothy would throw a tantrum if he ever heard that his girl was stopped by the guards from using his elevator.

After the elevator closed,it was then that Luke realized that Mira was carrying flowers. He wondered who would have gifted her the flowers. He was also sure that his boss would feel bad after seeing her carrying flowers from another Man.

Luke was aware of the love triangle between his boss,Mira and that Caleb guy. He was the one who was sent to investigate that guy. He couldn't help but wonder why his Boss did not expose the true colours of that two faced man bitch after he discovered their ploy of robbing Mira off her assets. He couldn't figure out what his Boss was thinking watching the woman he loved go to another man's arms especially when that other man was untrustworthy.

But he was an assistant afterall, he couldn't butt in in his boss's affairs.

" They are beautiful,the flowers." He commented.

" Really? You think he will like them?" Mira asked back her question surprising Luke.

" Who? The boss?" Luke inquired. He just wanted to be sure his ears were not deceiving him. Did that mean she had brought them for his boss?

" Ofcourse,who else?" Mira replied posing a question at the end.

" He will definitely love them." Luke answered,that he was 101%sure of. Maybe the flowers would get rid of the alcohol in his system as long as it was coming from her.

" I hope he does." Mira said smiling broadly at the idea.

Just then the elevator arrived with a ding . The two stepped out one after the other and walked towards the CEOs office.

" Go ahead miss Jones." Luke ushered her in and after thanking him for his politeness,Mira stepped in.

" Didn't I tell you to leave me alone? What are you still doing here?" Mira was greeted by Timothy's angry voice. This was the last thing she expected to happen.

" You want me to leave?" Mira asked not taking a step forward.

Timothy was about to retort when he caught something weird about the voice that replied to him. That was no man's voice,it was rather the voice of the only woman he has ever loved. He could recognize that voice even in his sleep.

He turned his head slowly to look at the door just to make sure the alcohol wasn't playing tricks on him.

He was pleasantly surprised to see her standing in his office. He was about to stand up and walk towards her when he remembered that today was the day Caleb proposed to his Mira. He figured out that there's no way she'll be visiting his office when she was supposed to be enjoying with Caleb now.

" Have you bewitched me that I see and hear you every where I am. Maybe Luke was right,I am totally wasted." Timothy said and lowered his head.

He tried to control the tears in his eyes but he couldn't anymore so he let them flow.

Seeing him cry,Mira felt her heart constrict in pain. Just how much pain had he been holding in to finally break down like this?

She took hurried steps towards him and she did what her mind directed her to do. Hug him.

She hugged him tightly letting his head lie on her bossom. Before she knew it,she had also started crying. She didn't know what came over her but she found herself shedding tears.

Luke who had peeping through the door turned emotional seeing the scene. Who couldn't? It was a rare occasion to see a man as strong as his president cry. He must have bottled his emotions until his heart reached its breaking point.

He turned around and left, giving the two the privacy they needed.

After crying for a while, Timothy gathered his senses and said," it hurts to see you with another man but I promised myself,as long as he makes you happy, I'll learn to be happy because you are happy. I will watch you silently and ensure that you are well always."

Mira figured out that he was still thinking that she was an illusion in his mind.How silly!

" Oh so you've finally made your decision? Did you wait to hear my decision? Why are you always making the choice on my behalf?" Sheila said angrily slapping the work table so hard that some files fell down jolting Timothy to reality. He outburst somehow brought back his conscious.

" Mira! Are you real?" Timothy asked dumbfounded, confusion clear in his black orbs.

" No I am a ghost!" Mira replied. She was really annoyed with him. One minute he's crying because he thinks she went to another man and the next he's talking about watching by the sidelines as long as she was happy! How could he be such a coward? A true Man flights for what it is he wants not accepting defeat without even trying.

" You are angry,that means you are here." Timothy said and chuckled.

In one swift move, Mira was now sitting on his lap facing him . He used his fingers to trace her face.

" You look beautiful tonight." Timothy said. Mira could tell that he was half drunk, half conscious.

The Timothy she knew will not have the guts to trace her face with his fingers although he was never mean with his compliments.

" Really? Why else?" Mira decided to tease him.

" Your lips look sweet and inviting!" Timothy replied.

" Do you wish to kiss them?" Mira asked.

" Can I do that? You won't be angry?" Timothy inquired.

To cut him short, Mira lowered her face and planted her soft lips on his cold ones.

She withdrew almost immediately earning a pout from Timothy.

" From today,you can always kiss them." Mira added.

" Really? You mean that?" Timothy couldn't hide his excitement. He resembled a child who has just been permitted to eat her favorite snack.

" Mmmmm" Mira replied.

" Can I do that now?" He asked hopefully.

" No." Came Mira's stern reply.

" But why? You just gave me the permission why are you taking it back." Timothy argued pouting sounding like an aggrieved child.

" I am not taking my words back." Mira said.

" But you Just did!." Timothy declared.

" Not now,we have alot to talk about." Mira replied amused. She never knew that Timothy had this cute side of him.

" Oh." Timothy said his mood dropping abit.

" What do you want to talk about?" He asked hoping she wasn't going to tell him about her accepting Caleb's proposal.

"
