HAROLDBuzzz!!! Buzzzz!!!!!My eyes flickered open while the alarm was bustling in my ear. I switched off the alarm and rubbed my eyes. I sat on the edge of the bed and turned my head around to see Miss Nolan.Surprisingly, she was not on the bed. I checked the time and it was still quarter to six.Maybe she went to her room at midnight.I got up from my bed and walked to my bathroom to get ready for the committee.After having a bath, I wore my suit and stood infront of my mirror. I dried my hair and combed it. I opened the drawer to take my watch out but as it opened my eyes fell on the photo frame of our little family. Precisely, a perfect family picture which was ruined after several years. My hands itched to take the photo frame out but I resisted and took my watch out before wearing it. I closed the drawer and marched outside the room.I switched on the lights of the dining area and walked towards the main door. I opened the door and on the door mat was my parceled food. I took
NAO M II was humming silently while climbing up the staircase. I just had my lunch now at three pm. I reached my room and I was about to turn the doorknob, when something surprising caught my eyes.Theminimaldivesroomisopenyayyaya!!!Wait!!Am I blabbering??Calm down inner Naomi.Okay...Taking deep breaths.Gosh!!!! Excitement is killing me.The door to the mini Maldives room is surprisingly open after a long time.Oh god!!! I've been craving to enter in once before I leave. Until now the door to this room was always locked and today it's open.God!!! I'm so excited.I tiptoed towards the room and the door was slightly open. I quietly pushed the door open and again a surprise hit me.Is he really here??! Or am I hallucinating?I mean he rarely comes upstairs..Harold was inside the room, his back was facing me. He was looking outside through the large windows of this room. I slowly took my steps towards him but suddenly his voice bellowed."I am in no mood for a company, Miss Nolan
HAROLDLeaving??! Next week? This month ends with next week!!Suddenly my whole demeanor changed as fear engulfed me all of the sudden.I'll be all alone once again!!But I knew one or the other day she'll leave!!But why am I feeling so sad?!"So Harold.." she cleared her throat. "Am I leaving next week to New York or not?" She raised her brows."Um..I'll inform you about it later." I responded."Are you okay?!" She asked with quirked lips."Yeah..." I trailed off with a small smile.Miss Nolan really did made me forget about my previous conversation with Marcel. She's immature but she's whole lot of a fun pack. She's extraordinary, no one can ever find another type of her. Again I couldn't help but smile. For a minute there was a peaceful silence, water was splashing up our feet sending a soothing sensation through my body when suddenly Miss Nolan called me."Harold..." she faltered."Hmm." I raised a single brow at her."Will you miss me once I'll leave your house?" She asked with
Wowwwww!!!!!The ball gown ordered by Harold as a gift for me was mind-blowing.As Harold already knew that I don't have any gowns with me, he ordered a very beautiful golden colour ball gown. It was beautiful with an off shoulder and full sleeved theme and shimmers all around it. Matching to the gown he also bought a matching golden heels. And it was delivered today without any delivery charge to pay.And tomorrow is the masquerade ball!!!!Gosh!! I'm so excited.I've never been to a masquerade ball before!!.And upon that this dress is.... exquisite!!! I'm loving this!! God I'm sooooo excited!!!I should be grateful to Harold as he thought of me and bought me this beautiful gown. Harold is a sweet guy and an honorable CEO.Suddenly the telephone ringed inside my room as I took it from the nightstand before receiving the call."Hello!""Where are you?" Harold's voice boomed through the telephone."Obviously I'm in my room!""Um...yeah.." he chuckled slightly."Well, I'm coming downst
HAROLD'S POVI stood infront of my mirror and glanced at myself. I sprayed my cologne on my neck, the crease of my arm and wrist. I combed my hair back and put on my watch. I was wearing a black tuxedo for the great masquerade ball.I am ready!I marched out of my room and stared ahead of the staircase. Miss Nolan was not yet here, I've asked her to get ready and be downstairs exactly on half past six and now she was two minutes late.I pulled my phone out to call her room telephone and with a single ring, she picked up my phone. "Coming!!! Coming!!! Coming Harold!!!" She screeched and with that she disconnected the call and I stared at my phone with utter disbelief.She's still getting ready!!I walked towards the dining table and sat on a chair. For around five minutes there was complete silence until I heard a sound of a clicking of heels against the wooden floor.I stood up and walked upto the staircase and there she was, Miss Nolan, slowly coming downstairs wearing a golden beaut
NAOMI NOLAN We were inside his car and I was busy gazing down at my lap specifically on the expensive wine bottle which was gifted to every couple by the ball organizers. I wonder how much the entry ticket might have been costed.I mean who freaking gives such a expensive wine bottle to every couple..I fixed my gaze towards Harold, who was driving with his eyes fixed on the windscreen, he's been acting strange tonight and now also his jaws were clenched and he was clutching the steering wheel tightly.Evening he was all fine and he was also looking gorgeous in his black tuxedo. Suddenly after entering the masquerade ball, his demeanor changed, he was kind of angry. Maybe something in his past came striking on him. Maybe!!Well, the masquerade ball was fun because of Jonah, the blonde guy who asked me for a dance. He was actually a good guy plus a gay. He just asked me for a dance because he had to complete his dare given by his friends.He was talking so much about his life and abou
NAOMI 'S POVIt was already 2 pm and my stomach was growling in hunger, in precise I was starving but I didn't want to go downstairs because I don't wanna face Harold after the last night event.Like seriously, I KISSED him!!!!!I don't know what is he gonna think about me??A wanton immodest woman?!NO!!!!But I have to confront him and tell him that it was just a bliss moment which can happen to anybody. When a man and a woman are attracted to each other for a couple of minutes...it happens, the kiss happens. It's normal, but the fact that he's my boss is hindering me.So what if he's my boss?!He's a man and I'm a woman, gender differs and such things happen accidentally. And it's not like I slept with him, it was just a normal hot, tongue dangling intense kiss.Precisely it was just a kiss....however it was, IT WAS JUST A KISS!!!!End of the story!!!!!My stomach growled again as hunger was striking me.Okay!! Whatever it is, I have to face it one or the other day.Yeah right!!!!
HAROLDI stood near the staircase and gazed ahead at it but there was no sign of Miss Nolan. It was six in the morning and she was not here like usual.Maybe she's still angry on what happened last night.But I didn't do it intentionally though, it was just an adrenaline rush.But in a salient side, Miss Nolan actually did not regret the kiss, she said it was normal but I, in the end messed it up.Maybe she will not come downstairs..I sighed and walked towards the door to exit the house.I hope she'll cool her temper down in the evening.........I entered the lobby of my committee as a subtle frown etched my face. The lobby was crowded with people surrounding around something. I could hear chorus and mumblings of people but certainly couldn't identify their words. I walked forwards inviting my presence to the crowd and suddenly there was silence by the people on seeing me as they moved aside giving me a way to see what it was. I walked forward and abruptly my breath caught in my thr
