Here goes nothing

The Next Day   "Hello, ma'am. How can I come to your service today?" Elijah asked as he stood in front of Helena Watson with his head down.    "Oh, Elijah. Did you come? Good. Come and have a seat!" Helena invited her into his office while he stood in front of the table with an obedient look on his face.    "It's fine, ma'am Helena, I prefer standing in front of you." He replied which made Helena smirk to herself in pride because of the respect she is getting from him.    Helena Watson is a woman of pride. She likes to be the centre of attraction. She always wants the spotlight on her only but obviously in positive ways. So, she likes it when someone praises her, butter her, respect her, and be submissive in front of her. It gives fire to her ego.   "As you prefer." Helena nodded at her and gave him a small nod. His head was held up but he wasn't looking in her eye

Start of the journey

"I really appreciate you coming on time." Sarah said while looking away from him as she couldn't find anything else to say. It's been more than five minutes since he entered the room. But none of them said a single word yet. Elijah kept standing by the door with an emotionless e

To clear things off

"To clear things off?"   "Yes." She answered with a nod and sat up straight. She sat properly while facing him and smiled at me. "You thought exactly what I thought you would think about me." She said with a small chuckle.    Elijah was confused would be an understatement. He was more than that. He was feeling offensive seeing her casual attitude. He thought her to be like every other rich and spoiled girl. He thought her to be like a 'true Watson'.    But was she here to prove him wrong?    "You know what? I actually thought a lot from the time I heard the news of… you know, Helena's wish, I thought a lot. I thought of what's happening in my life. I was angry when we got married. I thought the right of choosing my life partner was taken away from me. I felt like my freedom was taken away and I blamed you for it initially but never for once I thought low of you because of your professi

Great friends

He couldn't believe that she was so mature yet so childish at the same time. This time it was his time to smile as he gave her hand an assuring squeeze.    "As you said before, it's not like I have any other options." He said with a small playful eye roll which made her laugh.    "We are great friends already!" She said and he just smiled at her.     "Can I ask you some questions?" He asked in an unsure tone while withdrawing his hand. He already started to miss the warmth of her soft hand. He could always hold those hands and never be tired.    What's happening to him? Why was he feeling like this? He wasn't supposed to feel like this. Not now! It's going to ruin everything. Everything. He can't let that happen but what is he going to do? He seems to lose it every time she smiles at him.    "Oh, I am so sorry! I totally forgot that you might have so

Important meeting

"Sorry, to interrupt you, ma'am. But you have a really important meeting in half an hour." Mary said as she entered the room after getting permission from Sarah.    Sarah looked at her in confusion. She doesn't remember having any meeting in half an hour. She was supposed to go to her father's company after her meeting with Elijah was over. Nevertheless, she nodded at her and looked at Elijah with a smile.

Did you hear her?

"Hello, I have a reservation on Mr King's name." She said with the same confidence which intimidated the poor receptionist a little. Yet she acted as professional as she could and smiled at her.    "Yes, ma'am. Please give me the honour of showing you the table." She said and started to walk toward a table at the far corner of the room, by the window.    She found the table empty when she reached it. She looked at her hand watch and saw that it was two minutes past half-past eleven. She took her seat, facing the entrance and decided to select some designs to show the person who is going to meet her today on behalf of Mr King.    She was going through her tab for the designs when she heard someone tapping on the glass table. She looked up thinking it was her client but frowned a little in confusion after finding Elijah standing in front of her. She stood up.   "Hi..? Did you want to say

Habits of mind reading

"How did the meeting go, Rays?" Mary asked while looking ahead at the road as she was in the driving seat.    Sarah took a sip from her Starbuck drink and gulped down the bite of the sandwich with the help of the drink. Mary had picked some snacks for Sarah on her way to pick her up from the restaurant, knowing very well that Sarah must not have taken a healthy breakfast considering her state of mind and will not have time to take a healthy lunch too as she will get busy as soon as she enters the office. Sarah was really thankful for her thoughtfulness.   "The meeting was... weird." Sarah said with a small frown. Mary gave her a small side look of confusion before looking back at the road again.    "What do you mean?" She asked.    "Well, you already know about my habits of mind-reading the clients and…" She couldn't complete it as Mary completed it for her with a small roll of her eye

Stay away from my sisters

"Oh, look, who do we have here?!" Samantha snickered with a devilish smirk as she stood in front of Elijah, blocking his way.   "Oh, what a pleasure meeting you Elijah!" Natasha said in cunning as she too stood in front of him with crossed hands and looked at him with mockery.   Elijah looked at them with a blank look and nodded at them, accepting their presence.    "Miss Watsons. Good evening." He said in a strained tone and gave them a small nod. They both nodded back with a sly smile on their faces.    "Good evening, Elijah. What are you doing here? You might have forgotten that you are the loser son-in-law of the family. The marriage with the daughter of the family is not going to change anything, remember?" Natasha asked while faking confusion.   "Oh, Nate. Did you forget that apart from being the loser son-in-law, he also shares a relationship with our family? He

Calling him

"What took you so long, Elijah?" Helena asked in a stern tone, waiting for him to answer her.    Helena was an impatient woman. She always wants things to happen in her way and they better happen first. Another reason for her to be so impatient and maybe a little anxious is because of Sarah Watson.    She knows Sarah enough to know that Sarah is a smart woman. Even though Sarah is the youngest among all the heirs, she is the smartest. She knows that Sarah always learnt from everything and made herself strong. Sarah is an intelligent woman as well as a business run in her blood. Sarah knows how cruel and crazy the business world can get and Helena was aware of that. So, she was really interested in knowing about the conversation between her and her future husband whom she has chosen for her.    "I am sorry, ma'am. After the meeting, Miss Sarah Watson wanted me to drop her somewhere. Then I had a sudden emer

Not overwhelming

"So, uhh… you wanted to say something?" Elijah asked in an unsure tone, not knowing what else to say.    "Why? I can't call you without any reason?" Sarah asked.    "No, no! That's not what I meant. Of course, you can call me anytime. But you weren't saying anything and… and I didn't know what to say. So, I…" He trailed off, not finding any more words to defend himself.    "Hey, hey! Calm down. I was just pulling your legs." Sarah said and laughed on the phone, making him sigh in relief. He heard her laugh with a small smile at the corner of his lips. Her smile is so flawless and soothing in his ears that he can't describe it in words. "Did I make you nervous, Elijah?" Sarah asked, really enjoying the phone conversation.    Sarah looked at the glass wall at her left and saw her reflection. She was smiling and the frown that always stays on her forehead was not there at this moment
