The cab drop me off at the office building. I gasp in awe, looking at it. It was so big... I didn't have time to take in the exterior cause of the interview so I rushed in.
I walked straight to the receptionist.
"Hello there, how may I help you" the blonde lady said
"Hi, I'm here for the job interview" I was breathless from all the running.
"Your name, please." Her smile was polite.
"Jasamina Rutherford"
She checked on her system. "Go have a seat there, Miss Jasamina"
I thanked her and moved towards the chairs. I saw two ladies sitting their and sat beside them. "Hi" I greeted.
"Hey, you're also here for the interview?" The lady beside me whispered.
I nodded "Yeah..." We got interrupted by the receptionist. "Blanca? You're

With the project at hand...."As the manager for the lower market explained at the conference, I lost track of what he was saying again.The meeting is taking more time than I intended for it to, but the project was also an important one and because of that, I can't cut the meeting short.I got up and all the eyes of the board of directors came to me. "Excuse me, gentlemen. Please continue with the meeting, I'll make a call and I'll be back."I didn't wait for their consent or response, I strode out of the conference hall and closed the door. Staring at the deserted hallway, I pulled out my cellphone from my pocket.I dialed Dylan's number."Hello, sir?"

Five years.....even after five years....I stared at the most beautiful version of the woman that used to be My Jasamina. She looked most beautiful. Five years did the greatest work in her."J-Jasamina.....?" I couldn't believe that that hoarse voice was mine, but it doesn't matter.I'm staring at her. I'm staring at Jasamina."Tann!" She left her scattered file there and shot to her feet. She threw her arms around me. "It's really you!"My arms tightened around her, I buried my face in her neck and inhaled deeply. People stared curiously, but I didn't mind. I closed my eyes and hugged her tight."Oh, Tann! Oh, God!" She gasps repeatedly, plastered to my body.

I'm so glad she got the job.I just can't believe that this is her, after all this years. It's as if my chest opened up and raw emotions played in there. I wanted nothing more than to kiss her.After all these years, her kiss is one of the so many things I long for. But it wouldn't be right, would it? A lot of time has passed, and she has a man in her life right now."How is Xax?" She mumbled as she pulled away."He's away. I don't know when he'll be coming back but we keep in touch."She nodded again, the silence suddenly awkward. She looked away. The way she kept biting her lips shows that there are words she wants to say, but she k

I half groaned upon hearing the knock on the door. I guessed it was Nessa. The click of her heels was all too familiar" Here is the coffee sir, I I had to remake it because the first one got cold." She said gently as she shut the door behind her, taking a professional stride towards my desk to place the tea cup, and a saucer underneath." Thanks. You can leave now." I stated, darting my eyes to her retreating steps and seconds later, the door was shut again.I stretched my hand to take the coffee but damn!, I ended up spilling it on the floor as my fingers lost their friction. The cup and saucer followed, shattering into tiny little pieces.What's happening to me?

It hurt bad, the thought that I thought of him so much for the past five years, that I waited so much....and it's as if I became a memory he dropped behind and moved on." Tears ran down my cheeks. I averted my eyes."Oh Jass...." She came closer and hugged me. I burrowed into her and cried softly. She smells nice and so familiar, but I still wear the cologne of Tann. I can still smell him.She took my silence as a cue to carry on, chiding me softly. "I really understand how you feel, Jass. But, you should have allowed him to explain. You shouldn't have left just like that. He probably has a tangible reason for not coming back as he promised.""The only tangible reason there is, is that he moved on. There is no other reason, Anya. Five years is a long ti

One week since I left before he could explain. One week of missing him all over again.The first three days, I looked around whenever I came to work and during work for him I couldn't find him. On the third day, I even took the elavator to the head department to look for him but I couldn't find him no matter how much I lurked around searching with my eyes.On the fourth day, I'd taken the courage to ask the woman who was carrying the coffee and staring at us at very day questions. I found out the woman is the direct secretary to the CEO of the company, and when I asked...."Sorry, the boss is not in his off

Five words that were like a healing balm to my very soul. "Y-You did?"He palmed my cheeks tenderly. "I did, honey. It took me so long and I'm very sorry.....""No, no, no, don't ever apologize! Ever! You had so much on your plate, I understand how it must have taken so long for you, I really understand, Tann."He lowered his lips and kissed me breathlessly. His lips coaxed mine softly and I gave in to his adore, he doesn't seem to mind my inexperience....Tann never did."I went back after two years but the house was empty.
