May. POV.
After that day I started working on the designs required my the company. Every designer has their own trademark and luckily for me I never did that in my previous competitions which I won on my sister's behalf. Ironically me being the topper couldn't win the competition and he being not even able to win the classes still she could win the glory for the university.
I think my sister knew about my emotions. There is no way she would have ignored it but I think she chose not to care as she got all the love and attention at the expense of others and it didn't matter to her that how many tears I have shed.
That's why I am not close to my sister. I don't think that I have been talked to her because for me she is the cause of my sufferings but I never resented her for it as it is human nature but she could have shared a bit of love with me then everything would be the best but she smchose to be slefish and all the decisions which my family took is the sole reason I don't want to be with them and is now happily away from them.
After taking one full week on completing the designs I submitted it to the company and then I was called to the boss's office. It is my first time seeing the boss as the boss of our company usually stays lowkey and no one has ever seen his face and he rearky attends the events. I was not sure that why I was being called but I guess it is about the designs. So I reached his office after being led by his beautiful secretary. I knocked on the office door and the boss let me enter. When I entered the office I saw Alexander sitting on the boss chair looking at me smiling . To say I was shocked is an understatement. Never in my dreams would I have known that the person who passed out on me is my boss. I awkwardly waved at home and he told me to sit down. Then he sat up straight and said
"Anaya ,Right. I want to say thank you to you for that day. It was wrong for me to leave without a thanks.So ,thank You Anaya ."
I don't know but the way he said my name is so beautiful. I have never heard anyone calling my name in such a seductive manner. I was lost into his grey eyes but then sanity brought me back and I said
"Never mind. You were actually passed out so there is no way you could have said thanks to us and by the way you friend Andrew already said thanks. So there is no need. It is our duty to help the one in need. So what exactly happened that day because I heard something else ."
"Actually I was drugged by someone. So I tried to enter the washroom but then the effect of drug took over and then you saw me and rest happened. Andrew lied to protect me someone leaked what happened and now that person has been warned. I am sorry for the trouble that day. " He said.
"It's okay. And why did you actually called me?"
I asked him.
Then he said
"Oh my bad!. These are the designs which I have selected . I wanted your opinion on them. I know this is not your work but I have seen your resume and your work and you are the best we have got . "
I looked at him embarrassingly from the praise I just received and then took the file and looked at the designs. All the designs were the best and they perfectly showcased the nature of the designer and their creativity. I was mesmerized by the designs .
I pointed out some things and he listened to me carefully. He didn't look like a boss but more like a friendly colleague. We kept on talking about the designs and theme. In between his secretary came with the lunch and then I realised that it was the luch time and the boss asked me to join him . I was hesitant at first but his secretary aslo persuaded me and together we had lunch. It was peaceful and bit worrisome as I didn't want the boss to have bad impression on me. So I tried as elegantly as possible to eat the food. After the food we again went on discussion. After the discussions and suggestions were done I took my leave and suprisingly Alexander came to open the door for me like a gentleman. I know that by now my cheeks would have been red. I thanked him and left the office but on the way I could feel his gaze on me and I don't know but It made me blush. I also saw his secretary Jasmine on the way smiling at me which was weird but I went on my way to my home thinking about the boss which I should not.
May. POV.After that encounter with my boss I have never seen him but somehow he reminds me of someone but I can't put a finger on it and now he has even started coming into my dreams which is absurd and so wrong. I guess it is because I have not really intereacted with the opposite sex and when they give me some attention so I start to swoon over them. But I think it is attraction. I never once in my life felt that way. I do have many boy Friends but they never gave me such kind of feeling and now that I am having different feeling it is making me ponder upon it .So to take my mind off those grey eyes I called Anaya ,Amanda and Stacy for a hangout and they all agreed. We decided to go on Saturday as we have off on Sunday. On Saturday after leaving for our work we quickly went to our homes. Amanda lives with her husband Amos as she is Newly married and Stacy lives with her parents and little brother. We dicided to reach at 'Onix' mall which is a famous mall in our city by 6:00 pm.
May. POV.Alexander hurriedly came towards me and looked shocked but there was a smile on his face looking at his friend's beliwered face. Andrew was holding his nose and thank God it didn't break otherwise I would have been so embarassed. I looked at him sadly and said"I am so sorry. I just left Anaya for a moment to drop off Amanda and when I cam back I saw Andrew leaning over Anaya so I thought that it was some pervert and I instinctively took the action. I am sorry.""It is okay. " Replied Andrew after removing his hand from the face and I saw that his nose was swelled up. "I think I should take you to see the doctor. That might be hurting." I said to him with concern."No . It is okay. I am happy that Anaya has a protective friend who can fight for her. "I smiled proudly at his comment and then Alexander said"Both of you girls are very protective of each other. Last time I took the hit and this time it is Andrew . I think next time we should watch out for our well being. " We
May.POV.The whole way to our Apartments I was thinking about Alexander's smile and Andrew's Happiness as it was evident in his face. I think Andrew likes Anaya but I can't pinpoint it as I am no expert but his behaviour towards her seems weird . I am no one judge. This is Anaya's call and I will let her decide. I will not interfere until or unless her hurts Anaya in any way. When we reached the Building I quickly opened the my side of the door and helped Anaya out before any of the boys could do. I looked at their beliwered expression. I looked at Alexander with a flushed face and said"Thank you Alex and Andrew for dropping us off. I am very thankful to you guys. I would like to invite you guys to our house some other day. Goodbye and have a safe journey. "And with that I left before anyone of them could say anything. I know my behaviour is bit weird but around Alexander my actions goes out of my way as if I want to be close to him . He gives me a sense of familiarity that I feel
May. POV.Next day when I woke up Anaya was still asleep. I got up and got freshen up. I quickly took bath and changed into my casual clothes as I don't have to go to work today as I will be working from home. It was 6:00 am in the morning. I decided to make white sauce pasta, Orange Juice and Omelette with bread. I know cooking as Whenever I used to be alone I used to cook for myself as all the food at my previous house was of Josephine's choice which mainly consisted of boiled vegetables and for her well being and me being a donoe my parents made me eat the food which I didn't want. And whenever they were out with her I started to cook for myself and gave myself some cheat meals. After the breakfast was done I went to wake Anaya up which was very difficult and when she woke up she quickly hugged me and said to me in her sleepy soft voice "I don't wanna wake up."This was very unusual for me as the Anaya I have seen is strong and independent and this is the first time I have seen
May. POV."Oh! Hello Mr Alexander."I greeted my boss . Alexander looked embarassed for startling me and said"I am sorry for startling you. I was in this place to buy some beasic necessities and saw you struggling with it and couldn't stop myself but to help you. "" No need to worry . It is okay. " I told Alexander and saw the trolley behind him filled with toothpastes, brushes, ect but they seem to be two in quantity but never mind it is not my business. After that we both walked side by side with our trolleys to take the things we need and the whole time we were quiet and just minding our business. But sometimes I felt him sneaking glances at me and I was also doing the same thing. After we were done we went to the billing counter . I was first in line and Alex behind me . I quickly paid off for the things and then started contemplating whether to wait for him or not and then decided to wait for him . When he was done paying his bills he looked at my and I saw a genuine smile on
May. POV.When I entered my apartment I quickly closed the door and slid down on the door and say down on the floor with my back touching the door. I touched the left side of chest and felt the plapatitations of my heart. My heart was beating so hard that I could feel that it will come out. I took deep breaths which calmed my heart and I know the reason is the one who just dropped me off. I don't know why I try to act so tough in front of him ,when in reality I want his sole attention on me. I want to hug him so tight that we can stay like that forever. I slapped myself out of my fantasy and arranged the things I brought into the kitchen then left the kitchen to take a quick shower before cooking food. After shower I decided to make noodles with freshly chopped vegetables. I also made a cup of tea for me. I ate my food watching a crome thriller drama . After eating the food I brushed my teeth and drank a glass of water and went to sleep.Next day I woke up at 7:30 am. I quickly took
May. POV.We both kept looking at each other and I must say that Alex has the features which can swoon a girl at a glance and by default I am no exception. I really want to touch his face and feel his self but I think it will be appropriate so I just smiled at him and walked towards him. He also took a few steps so that we were standing facing each other. I could see it in his eyes that his whole attention was on my face . Then he slowly raised his hand and held my hand and said "I never knew that you could look more beautiful than before just by changing the attire. "I smiled at his choice of words and said. "I can say the say for you because you look handsome very day. "Then he motioned me towards the car and opened the passenger side door of the car for me and helped me inside the car making sure that I don't bump my head or my dress remains intact. Then he closed the door and entered the driver seat of the car and drove to the restaurant "Amos" which is a famous continental r
May. POV.After Alex left I quickly changed into my comfortable nightwear and removed the makeup which I have applied. After Removing all the makeup my skin felt so fresh and then I applied moisturizer. Then I sat down on the bed nd opened my laptop and checked for my mails. And I saw that I was selected for the competition where I have to be physically present and on the spot we are supposed to draw our design and submit it. The one whose design is the best will win the award which includes a trophy and half a million dollars. I was happy but next week I have to go to the city T where they have organized the event at a famous hall which can accomodate over 10,000 people. I have a feeling that I will see Josephine over there but I have no fear because I have done nothing wrong. It is they who should be afraid of me.But Josephine',s boyfriend Bruce is someone who irks me out because when Josephine needed my kidney he tired to act close to me and convince me so that I could give my Ki
