“Why did you do that Andrew?” Amelia whines still on the ground.

“Why do you do that Andrew”Liam Minicks and scoffs ,he took his pillow and raised it up to her face.

“What are you doing in my room Huh?” Liam yells .”Don’t tell me you lay your head on my precious pillow” Liam rolled his eyes as he looked at her in disbelief.Amelia stood there looking at him confused as she didn’t know what to say.

“Speak!” Liam barks and she immediately stands up.

“Well you see Andrew,I was sleeping when I heard the voice of a little child yelling ‘Don’t leave me dad’, so I decided to check it out and saw you were shaking on your bed while crying” Amelia explains.

“Oh..,” Liam whispers.

“Yea and you also told me not to leave you” Amelia tells him with a smile on her face.Liam look at her as his upper lip raises up slightly as he murmurs something to himself.

“Enough of the explanation okay” Liam groans and turn to leave.

“Okay Andrew”Amelia said which made Liam turn to look at her.

“Tell me about andr…I mean me” Liam bit his tongue in order to stop him from blurting out the truth.

“Uhm okay”Amelia stares at him a bit confused.

“Well you are a sweet and lovely guy who cares about everyone and always likes when everyone is happy”Amelia said with a bright smile on her face as she was looking at the ceiling like memories were flashing through her mind.

“You always take care of me and love to kiss me”Amelia blurted out, causing Liam to choke.

“Are you okay?” Amelia asked worriedly.

“I’m fine”He said and signalled her to keep talking.

“Well me and you always watch movies and eat together”Amelia giggles ,Liam made a puke face behind her back.

“Well you haven’t told me about how I look,”Liam states and Amelia immediately looks at him.

“What?”She asked confused.Liam scratched his head awkwardly knowing he was about to mess things up.

“I mean how do I like your view?”He grins, trying to clear the awkward tension in the air.

“You are so cute with your blue ocean eyes and broad shoulders,And your hair is so silky and soft,”Amelia explains.

“Okay” Liam nods.

“With those plump juicy lips of yours that I enjoyed kissing” Amelia giggles.

“That’s enough okay” Liam groans.

“How do I look like in your view?”Amelia said with a smile plastered on her face as Liam scans her from head to toe.

“You look like you,”He bluntly said with a cold expression .

“Really Andrew?”Amelia whines while stomping her feet on the ground.

“What?” Liam asked.

“So you mean I just look plain in your eyes?” Amelia frowns.

“I said you look like you,it’s up to you to decide if you think you are plain”Liam tells her before leaving the room. “I gotta find that dude” he whispers before leaving.

“I look like me?”Amelia thought of Liam’s words as she checked out her body in the mirror next to her.

Liam came downstairs dressed in a black suit with his car keys in his hand,he walked towards the door but his path was blocked by Amelia.Liam stares at confused by her action.

“What are you doing?”Liam moodily asked.

“Where are you going?”Amelia questions him.

“None of your business,now answer me on why you are blocking my path”Liam coldly said.

“That’s because you don’t wanna answer me on where you are going too”Amelia whines.

“I don’t have time for this move now”Liam frowns.

“I’m not moving until you tell me where you are going?”Amelia stomps her feet down and crosses her hands .

“What the hell?” Liam barks.

“Hush I noticed you have become really grumpy lately”Amelia scolds him,Liam was shocked by her words as he never thought she was confident enough to speak like this.

“What, why are you looking at me like that?”Amelia scoffs, shocking Liam more.

“Wow just wow”Liam finally said.

“What’s wrong?” Amelia asked worriedly .

“Nothing am not actually surprised by your new character,women are fond of having a hidden character in them, yours just came out” Liam chuckles slightly and shoves her out of his way and goes to his car immediately.Amelia watches as Liam drives out before closing the door.

“What does he mean by that?” Amelia thought as she was confused by Liam's words.

Liam entered his company,immediately his staff members stood up,they all bowed their heads and greeted him.Liam went to his office and shut the door behind him.

“How dare she talk to me like!” He yells as he messy his hair a little frustrated.Liam was ranting to himself about Amelia’s attitude towards him when a lady came in with a tray that had a cup of coffee on it.Liam glares at her.She drops the tray on the table and bow a little.

“Here’s your morning coffee Li…I mean Sir” She giggles at her word but Liam wasn’t finding it funny as he stared at her with his dark piercing cold eyes seeing she was still in his office.

“What are you still doing here?”Liam asked, annoyed by her present.

“Hmm I wanted to tell you something” She mutters as she look at him slightly.Liam sighs and went to his chair and sat down.Liam took the cup of coffee and sip it a little before dropping it down.She watches as Liam sip his coffee mesmerised by him.He look up to see her lost in her own world why staring at him and frown.

“Don’t you have something to say Claudia!”Liam blurted out, bringing her out of her own world.

“Uhm…I” Claudia stutters, not knowing what to say.

“You what?” Liam questions irritated by her.

“Hmm I wanted to congratulate you on the new deal”She tells him.

“Okay you can leave now!”Liam bluntly said as he pointed to the door.Claudia frowned a little before leaving his office,she closed the door behind her and held her heart which was beating fast.

“Omg he knows my name”She squeaks happily.A lady walks past Claudia with a snack she was eating in her hand.

“He knows all the staff names”She says referring to Claudia to remove the thought of her being special.Claudia glares at the girl before leaving.

The staff members were together chatting about their boss Liam while working.Claudia walked towards them and sat on a chair and opened her computer so she could finish her work when a staff member turned his chair to her direction.

“Claudia!”He calls out for her.

“Yes Mike, what do you want?”She said, highly irritated by him.

“Chill girl I just wanted to know what happened in there,cause I heard the boss yell or something right guys”Mike said as everyone nodded in unison.

“What do you mean by that?” Claudia scoffs as she turns to look at him.

“You know boss isn’t that type of guy,he won’t fall for your tricks” A middle aged woman states as everyone laughed except for Claudia who wasn’t finding their jokes funny.

“What are you saying Miss Cynthia?” Claudia said between her teeth as she was at the verge of losing it.

“What Miss Cynthia is trying to say is,all those short clothes you like wearing won’t entice Our boss”The girl from the other time said totally making Claudia pissed.

“No one asked for your opinion Liala”Claudia fires at Liala.

“And no one asked your face”Liala claps back at her making Claudia stand up.

“How dare you talk to me like that huh?” Claudia yells as she walks towards her.

“What are you going to do about it? Who do you think you are,the boss's girlfriend?” Liala fires back at her, earning chuckles from the other staff members.

“Oh shut your trap you bitch”Claudia curses at her.

“Me and you, who looks like a bitch?” Liala scoffs, earning a glare from Claudia.

“Just look at how short your gown is ,I can even see your pants”Liala looked at her from head to toe with disgust on her face.

“That’s enough Liala” Miss Cynthia said trying to stop their argument before it leads to another thing.

“No let her continue,she talks about my dress at least it is more presentable than those rags you are putting on”Claudia smirks as she paces around her with her arms crossed.

“At least the boss is able to glance at me,but you.”Claudia scoffs. “He can’t even stand your presence” Claudia said in between her teeth.

Liala sighs and wants to sit down but Claudia pulls the chair resulting for Laila to fall on her butt everyone gasps.Claudia bends down to her level.

“Aww did that hurt?”She said with an evil smirk on her face.

“How dare you?” Laila screams as she pulls Claudia down by her hair.Claudia screams as the both of them exchange fists on the ground.

“Stop it girls!” Miss Cynthia yells at them but they ignored her as Claudia got on top of Laila and punch her face really hard the staffs gathered around them as some try to stop them while others brought out phones to record while laughing.Laila push Claudia off her and got on top her as she punches her nose repeatedly resulting to blood oozing from Claudia’s nose.

“Okay that’s enough!” Mike carries Laila away from Claudia.

“Let go of me ,I need to teach that bitch a lesson!”Liala yells as she swings her legs in the air.

“What’s going on here?”A voice asked, making everyone freeze at their spots.They all turned to see Liam standing with a cold facial expression as his eyes scanned the room and saw Claudia on the ground with blood coming from her nose.

“What happened to your nose?” Liam asked Claudia as he glared at everyone ,Everyone looked away trying to avoid contact with Liam cold stares.

“Someone speak!” Liam yells as he is irritated by everyone's silence.

“Liala and Claudia got into a fight,” Miss Cynthia explained.

“No Liala attacked me” Claudia whined as she stood up slowly.

“No I didn’t” Liala defends herself.

“I’m the one with blood on the nose you beast”Claudia fires at Laila.Laila and Claudia were having a little banter.

“Enough!” Liam yelled, not able to hear them talk again.

“From now on ,no one is allowed to fight here and anyone that does will be fired”.Liam states but got no response.

“Got that!”He yelled.

“Yes sir” Everyone said in unison while murmuring. Liam walks away before stopping at Claudia's side.

“Go treat your nose” Liam tells her from behind before leaving.

“Yes boss” Claudia smiled before looking at Liala with a smirk on her face.

***

Night time came,Liam left the company as a lot of staff bid him goodnight.He drove home immediately,a few hours and minutes later he pulled up at his driveway. He got out of his car and locked it before walking towards his house.Liam typed the password of his house and the door opened.

“I’m so hungry” He yawns, forgetting that he lived with someone.Liam stopped on his tracks when he heard a sound coming from his living room ,he was about to dial the cops number when Amelia's smiling face flashes through his mind making him groan.

“Where is she,did she leave?” Liam said hoping she did leave as he walked around his house looking for her.He came to the living room and was shocked to see…
