Arranged marriage

On the following day, which was on a Monday morning, Aviana woke up to the alarm snoozing. It was around seven o'clock in the morning. A yawn escaped her mouth as she sat up straight on the bed, picked her phone from under the pillow and turned it off. Then, she climbed off the bed as her feet stepped on the tiled floor. She wore her slippers which were arranged on the side of the bed and walked straight to the bathroom. She carried out her usual morning routine from washing her face, brushing her teeth, taking a bath.It took her a whole thirty minutes and she were done with everything. She walked out of her room and headed downstairs. Hayden was already dressed up in his uniform and was sitting at the table having his breakfast. Her mother was also around. She took her place at the table and ate her breakfast heartily. Soon, she was done and was ready to leave for work. "Mother, I'll take Hayden to school, today," Aviana said to her mother, who was approaching them from the kitchen

Beauty is key

Today, Aviana wore a classic, brown pencil skirt that was made of leather material and a simple long-sleeve silk blouse, white in color. She accompanied the outfit with a pair of black high heels, giving off a polished and professional look. She matched down the corridor while still holding hayden's small hand in hers. Other parents were still bringing their own children to school, lessons were yet to start, the teachers had to be in their offices waiting on the bell to ring so they could go to their respective classes. Seconds later, they arrived at the office and were standing outside the door. Aviana raised her hand and wanted to knock on the door. But she hesitated when she heard the sharp and sour voices of a couple of women as they conversed, inside the room. "That good for nothing teacher came to school early, as usual. She is surely doing pretty well....""I think she is just putting on a show. She is only doing this to impress the parents and have them favor her. Seems her

What?

Scarlet walked inside the coffee shop. She only had her phone in her hands. She was quick to discover where Ray sat, so, she walked over to him. She pulled out a chair that was opposite, from where he sat. Once she was comfortable in her seat, Scarlet placed her phone on top of the table and her hands followed suit and they were intertwined on top of the table. Then, her eyes met Ray's. "Scarlet, it's good that you came. I have something important to tell-" "Ray, listen. I know that you've feelings towards me. However, I cannot reciprocate what you feel for me. I'm sorry," Scarlet said in a low and soft voice, as she cut him off so suddenly. She thought he asked her to come over because he wanted to confess his feelings for her! So, she wanted to make things clear to him that she would never see him more than a friend. Ray was speechless. Yes, he had feelings for her, no doubt about that! But, that wasn't the reason why he called her out here. In fact, he had something that would

I want you

Aviana walked inside the CEO's office, as usual. She held a document in her hands, as she stepped forward. The document entailed detailed information about the CEO's work schedule. And, as his PA, it was her responsibility to report to him every morning on the activities that he needed to carry out on the fateful day. She said sternly, "Sir, the board members would arrive in fifteen minutes from now. After, you are required to visit the construction site. Also, their is a contract from the Westerni that needs your signature. That is all for today, Sir." Her tone was so serious, no one born of a woman would suspect they had a thing together. Ethan, on the other hand, sat leisurely on his desk, while he sipped his coffee and just stared at her without blinking. "Could you repeat what you've just said. I didn't hear just now," Ethan said casually, while he continued to stare at her. Aviana frowned. "What? Weren't you listening at all?" "I was listening, of course. I was just not

Business matters

"Who's it?" he asked in a hoarse voice. "Brother, are you in there? Could you open the door, please?" Scarlet's voice came along. When Aviana heard Scarlet's voice, she cowered in Ethan's arms. "It's scarlet. What do we do, now!" she asked in a panicked voice. "I told you we shouldn't do this in your office! Because, I knew Scarlet would definitely show up! Now, she is outside the door! What to do! What to do, Ethan!" she asked as she broke out in a cold sweat. "Calm down, will you?" he laughed lightly, seeing how terrified his woman seemed. "Ca-calm down? Are you serious? Your sister is outside your door?" she almost raised her voice, but she remembered scarlet was outside, so she lowered her voice immediately. "God, if you save my face today, I promise this will never happen again," she murmured a silent prayer. Of course Ethan heard it. And, he laughed. "Are you so sure about that! I wouldn't make such a promise if I were you! Because, I'm definite it will happen again!"

You are mine, forever

"Why are you here, again? Don't you have any useful thing to do with your life instead of showing up at the office especially at the wrong time?" Ethan asked, deadpan. He didn't hide the fact that he was pretty much annoyed when she suddenly showed up and disrupted such a good time he was having inside. Hearing his question, Scarlet was jolted back from her line of thoughts and back to planet earth. With total dejection, she replied, "Ethan, is it now a bad thing to visit my blood brother in his office and find out how he's doing?" But, she wasn't annoyed at all, in fact she enjoyed seeing how annoyed her brother seemed simply because she had disrupted whatever that was going on inside the office. "You've seen me, I'm doing fine. Could you leave now. I was actually in the middle of something important, I would appreciate it if you left immediately, so that I can go back to it," he said sternly and he left no room for her to refute. "Okay, okay, I'll leave," she said simply, while

Sister-in-law

Aviana peeked through the partially opened door. "Can I get you a drink? Maybe water or coffee?"Scarlet smiled as she spoke, "No, I'm good.""Okay, I'll leave now, the meeting is about to start anyway," Aviana sighed. Then, she closed the door and walked away afterwards. However, she halted in her steps the next moment. She contemplated for a while before she finally turned around and walked back. She held the doorknob and clicked the door open. Peeking through the partially opened door for the second time, Aviana asked, "Are you sure you still want to sit here all alone and wait for me? Why don't you go home and come back some other time when I'm not all tied up with work? The meeting might take longer, you know?" Scarlet stood up from the chair and walked towards her. "We are friends, right?" she asked her as soon as she reached the door where Aviana stood. Aviana simply nodded her head in response to her question. "I wanted to have a quiet time with you and if possible have a fr

Dark secret

Scarlet walked back afterwards and took her sit at the table. Taking a sip of her hot coffee, she checked on the time on her phone once again and sighed deeply. She had been keeping watch of time, one hour and thirty minutes had already passed by since they left for the meeting. The meeting was taking much longer time than she had anticipated. She took another sip. And another. Soon, she were done with the coffee and the cup was empty. Lucky for her, the lady brought a flask, so she poured the coffee into the empty cup. She took another sip. She went on with the rhythm of pouring coffee into the cup, sipping it, until she were running out of coffee. When she were remaining with only a cup of coffee, she began to sip it slowly while she played with her phone. That way, she would keep herself busy and she would not get bored. After a while, she got bored playing with her phone. So, she took some papers that were placed on the table and began to make paper airplane with them. She made

Project

Meanwhile, inside the meeting room, a heavy discussion was going on between Ethan and the board members. Ethan casually sat on his chair while he flipped the pen in his hand and listened carefully to whatever that was being said by the board members. Aviana, on the other hand, took minutes of the meeting, as it was her responsibility while still paying attention to their discussion. After a while, Ethan sat up straight on his chair, changing from his earlier posture, maybe because he had grown tired after sitting in the same position for an hour and more. He leaned forward and placed his arms on the table. He said indifferently, "Building a hotel? I do not think that's a good idea. You can do better than that, of course. Have you considered the many hotels we have in the city, have you thought about the competition that we are likely to face? What about the benefits the company would get from this project, if there would be any, the risks and all? It's a NO, for me. I need you to co

Exception

Ethan didn't say anything for a while, his eyes never leaving hers. Total silence reigned in the room, as everyone eagerly waited for his response. Aviana sighed deeply, she was wise enough to know his silence was his response. And, it was not just Aviana, the members harbored the same thought. When his silence was too much and everyone took his silence for his rejection, Ethan smiled slightly before he began to suddenly clap his hands, surprising everyone. "Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!" he said the same word three times. "That is….that is a pretty good idea, Miss Cole! Tell me, have you done this before! Have you told this idea to other companies!" he asked while he leaned forward and held his hands together, looking at her meaningfuly. Aviana simply shook her head. "Good. It should remain that way, then," he added. Then, he turned to the members, "What do you think about her idea. Isn't it the best." "Y-yes," the old member, Mr Gradgrind, stuttered. Shock! Surprise! were wr
