He ignored me again!

We live in a flat. The flat consists of one big hall, one kitchen, one bathroom, one toilet and two balconies. In my house, there are 3 people living in sharing.

One is me, the other is my best friend, Laura and the third is my enemy, Adriana. Although, what happened between Laura and my ex has proven that Laura is not less than a poisonous snake.

The auto stopped in my building and I paid the auto driver. I knocked on the gate and Adriana, who was in the house opened. 

She gave me a faint smile and said, "Where were you last night?"

I just ignored which irritated her. She clenched her fist and asked, "Where you were last night?"

I roared back, "Are you my father? Or my mother that I should inform you each and everything?"

Adriana placed her hands over her waist and said, "Yes, I am not. But, I want to tell you that your so - called best friend, Laura, didn't come into the house last night like you. So, I thought that ........"

Hearing this, I clenched my fist tightly. "Laura that b*tch! She must be spending time with that b@stard Nick." I roared.

Adriana didn't say anything. Although she wasn't my friend, instead of laughing at me, she advised, 

"Jenny, I know that you are now suffering from break up trauma. I know that I am not something to you but... But as a woman, I want to tell you that, don't take any step wrongly in anger. 

You should cheer for your life. Now, you are no longer in that possessive guy control. You are free. You have only one life. You shouldn't take any wrong step, which could hurt you forever."

After saying this, Adriana sat in her bed, opened the book and started studying. Adriana is a college student. That's why she works part time. My salary is at least 7 times more than her.   

Her parents are poor. That's why she had to work even while studying. That's why she couldn't afford her own flat and lived in sharing.

I was surprised with her behavior. I clearly remembered that six months ago, she had an ugly breakup with her boy friend. Instead of consoling her, I and Laura made fun of her. We even bullied her. But, in return, she was giving me a sensible thought.

What does this mean? She is much more mature than me. 

But what do I do? I have done everything now!

..................................................

I washed up and changed clothes. Adriana offered me a new packet of chips. I thanked her and gave her money. Although her gesture was nice, I don't want to owe her. Moreover, she was also broke.

I ate in a hurry and left towards the office. Just as I entered, I heard, 

"Hey, hurry up and finish all your assignments, big boss is going to take inspection!"

Big boss?

It means, George Feige? 

"Why suddenly this man is going to take the inspection? The man who never showed his face for 3 years, now suddenly appeared for inspection."

My whole work was pending. It would take me at least 8 extra hours to finish the work! God, why are you so cruel to me?"

I looked above to god, but of course, I didn't get any response. 

I pouted and left in a hurry. I cleaned my desk, put my bag and decided to finish some small tasks. I know that he won't look at everyone's work. He would examine only one or two. And, even if he would come to me, he won't check everything.

He would just check the above portion for 2 seconds and would move ahead. Ha ha! I could fool him right now. I bit my lips and started finishing off the smallest task which was pending.

I was lucky that before we heard any announcement, I had completed it. 

Sigh!

Just as I stretched my hands in the air, I heard, "Everyone, stand up. Big boss is here!"

I instantly stood up and fixed my chair. I again looked at my desk if everything was alright. I placed the only finished file above and it's record in the computer.

I finally looked up, and the CEO of Lotus Company, George Feige, arrived. He was a really charming man!

..................................................

He entered and rolled his eyes over everyone. For a moment, I thought that his gaze stopped over me for a microsecond, but before, I could overthink, he had moved his gaze and started observing everyone.

He was wearing the navy blue suit with the matching tie and was exactly 1.89 meter. His back was straight. His hands were strong and his body was hard as rock. For a moment, I just thought that what if he would be my boyfriend?

"Oh no, what I am thinking." I thought and shook my head. Then my gaze fell over the person standing adjacent to him. He was none other than the person who had given me pain last night.

Peter Morrison!

Our both eyes met. It was a moment. I bit my eyes and smiled lightly. But, he ignored me and concentrated on his boss's movements.

I felt ignored! Huh!

George Feige started the examination by asking randomly to any person. I liked the way he walks. But, I won't like if he would come to me and ask anything about business related questions.

I was just praying to god that 'Please save me this time.' But I believe that god really hates me. He would do exactly opposite to what I would prey.

I prayed to god that the CEO shouldn't come to me and yes! HE CAME.

Apart from more than 50 employees, he approached only 4 people. One was Peter, second and third ones were the 'Star Achievers' and fourth one was me. 

I smiled and bowed a little, "Good Morning sir."

He didn't say anything back but stared at me. I felt uncomfortable. I could only reach his chest. He was so long...

My heartbeats were thumping and I felt like if this goes on, my legs would give up and I would fall any time. I pursed my lips and wished again, "Good Morning sir!"

He shifted his gaze over my computer to look at what I was doing. I started explaining to him what I had recently finished. I was feeling lucky that I actually finished one.

As everyone had only explained their only one task, I also stopped after I finished my task. I bit my lips and said, "That's all sir!"

He raised his eyebrows and asked, "That's it?" 

Oh my god, he was terrifying me. I just looked at him and said, "Yes sir, that's it."

His face was expressionless. He looked at the other files and said, "What about them?" His voice was cold as ice. I got the goosebumps.

I smiled and said, "Ye...Yes sir."

I showed them files one by one. I explained the project and work. But I felt like he wasn't interested in it. He just chose a random file and said, "Show me about it."

What the hell! This is the pink file that I haven't started yet! I looked at Peter in pleading eyes. But, he ignored me just like before. I was scared...........
