Confiding in his newly employed intern

Retiring back to the office, even when Xander knew that it's already work close hour,but still assured that the office was the only place he can find total tranquility and be more useful to himself. His jaws groaned. He clenched his palms, feeling so disappointed and disheartened,walking down the dimly lit hallway, his thoughts heavy with the weight of his recent failure. He had been working tirelessly to bring the kidnappers of his sister, Ketty, to justice, but so far he has come up empty handed."Have a nice day sir." Susan bursts out of her office."Ooh.. Susan, I wasn't expecting you'll still be at the office till now.""Yeah, I actually had quite alot on my desk." She shots the door. "And needed to be done with it before heading home.""Ooh..I see, have a nice day then." Xander replies still walking to his office.She could sense that something wasn't just right seeing Mr Xander all alone back to the office at this time. 'why not I tell him about the paper company now.'she tho

The plan B

"She didn't call to check up on me for some days even when I was admitted, unlike her. ThankGod you were just right in time at the office when I had collapsed. I'm sorry if I got you scared, that day, I'm usually not like that.""Naa. It's okay." Susan waves her hand of the talk. "I could see it in your eyes that you were already pissed. We all have our bad days.""I guess so too." Xander continues "so I tried reaching out to her several times but she didn't pick up and just when she did, a man spoke furiously, demanding for a ransom for ketty's release.""Wow...but why miss Ketty? Susan murmured"Same question, that pondered within me up on till now." "Mm-hmm.""And just When I got a private investigator with the idea of setting a minute track chip device attached to the money mixed up with papers, they got away with the money even before we could get to their hide out and still threatened with a bigger ransom over the phone.""Wow.. that was indeed a smart move. They know their gam

His wrong opinion about her

(Three days after ketty's rescue)A light knock on Susan's door. The door handle moves down indicating an entrance. "Thank you so much. I mean, I didn't think confiding in a total stranger would be of any help." Xander says as he strolls in slow pace into her office."That was nothing. Anything for you sir." She giggle and roll her eyes back to her computer.Just then Xander walks even more closer. His fingers tapping her desk, simultaneously, looking subtly at her. "#We both know you didn't just do this for charity. What's the catch? Young lady!""Sorry I didn't get you properly?" Susan asks with looks of astonishment."Don't be sily, you heard me clearly."Hearing this, she chuckles blinking her eyes. "Are you for real?" Her jaws groaning as she stares at Xander in irritation. She couldn't believe what she just heard. Her head hungs backward. Is my mind playing tricks on me right now? she thought. "I did hear you, but not sure if that was for me. If you don't mind sir, with all du

The sleeping pills

Few hours later...Her hands still stuck on the desk, her fingers stiffened in same position as the feeling of unease raced unresistantly through her spine. She just wants to go home, nothing else.She tries to focus on her work but her mind keeps drifting. Her hands feeling clammy and her stomach, in knots. Feeling like she is suffocating, trapped in her cubicle. She longs to be outside, to feel the sun on her face and the wind in her hair.Susan grabs her hand bag on her way out of the office wearing a focused and formal face. She normally waited for like an extra hour after scheduled work hours to atleast make sure that she worked out with Ava on their way home but today was definitely not as cheerful as anticipated, considering the fact that Ketty just got rescued from some set of hired hoodlums and the Kidnappers in question did get apprehended by the COPs, still undergoing further investigations.She was expecting some sought of joy atmosphere around the office as Mr Xander prac

The office chat

"WHuuuu, that was close. ThankGod I was just in time."Ava talks to herself as she closes on a distance to her office door. She calmly pushes the door, then slamms it behind her, the moment she stepped in. Exhaling and inhaling breathes of relief. Her hands still cleched to the door handle. She is glad, she got to the office before her annoying boss, despite her lateness.She flicks her hand bag to the desk as she says her usual short prayers before any other work routine. Patting her head gently, she pulls the seat to her ass. "Mmmmm. WHuuuu," she let out her breathe when she perceives the freshly brewed coffee, about to take a sip, her phone beeps.Just then, she realises that her data connection has been active since last night and she had slept off without turning it off. "Ugh! Why now? Who is this, that doesn't care about my sanity?" In curiosity, she picks up her phone and behold, a message from none other than Mr Xander, her boss. She hesitates for a moment before finally openin

The dinner date

"Offcourse, dinner date." Xander responds with his eyes all sterned. "Any problems?""Well... Not really a problem... but in my own opinion, I think we'll have to visit the saloon to have you cleaned up and later check into an exquisite suite store for a new pair of suite. Yes, that will be good to go.""Really? All this–""Yes boss." Mr Dum adds, smiling. "You're a public figure and can't afford looking all sweaty sticky and bushy for his first dinner date.""I don't see what" –xander rubs his hand over his stubble– "the big deal is.""You're right boss, it isn't really a big deal at all but that's the vibe. Except, my opinion doesn't count on this." Mr Dum fixes his eyes in the air avoiding his bosses eye contact"Okay you see that right there, is a NO! NO! emotional blackmail and I'm definitely not playing that game." Xander smiles at Mr Dum, winging his fingers."Hahahaha! Hahahaha!" They bursts in laugh, hopping into the car as Mr Dum drives off. Walking into the saloon, he is g

After the dinner date

Seeing the sad look on Xander's face the moment she talked about mom's food, she smirks, "I"m so sorry I didn't mean for it to come out that way.""No... It's fine. I'm good now, atleast I've lived fifteen years of my life as an independent young man. What more could break me?"Susan chuckles in surprise. "Wow...fifiten years all by yourself, that must have being a really difficult time for you out there alone." "You don't wanna know about it." He giggles and roll his eyes. " But that's all past tense now.""Yeah... Cheers to the present and a better future." They both toast their glass tumbler cups of soft drinks in the air with beams of excitement.Few minutes later...Still drinking, Xander finds himself completely captivated by Susan that as he glances at his wrist watch, he couldn't believe how much he enjoyed her company and her sparkling conversation, surprised that they had already spent hours and it's looks like they are just getting started. "It's getting late, I guess you

The truth hurts

As Susan pours the last of the red wine into her glass cup. She feels a sense of nervousness and excitement wash over her. " Cheers to life and more." Susan utters loudly, clapping both cups.While they went on drinking, Xander can't help but notice the way Susan's face lit up with pleasure. She closes her eyes and takes a sip, savoring the taste. Xander watchs as she let out a contented sigh, and he knows that she was as impressed as he is. " Mmmm, this taste good." She mutters so intentional "Exactly! That feeling over there,You read my mind, I must say.""So if you weren't working at the EMPIRE, what would you be doing?" Xander asks whilst his eyes turned to his phone."Hmmm, what I will be doing?" She ponders for a while glancing at the ceiling fans"I will be working else where, or probably still be looking for a job to raise capitals as time goes on for other stable income. Yes that's what I will be doing." He nods his head with a smile. "Independent woman, I see.""Yeah... Th

I think I just messed up

"Mmmm, Ouch!" Susan wakes up with a pounding headache and intense feel of hunger in her stomach but her memories are hazy and fragmented. All she remembers is that, her boss Mr Xander had offered to drop her off at her apartment and when he did, she insisted that he comes in and they both drank red wine untill she had an hangover. "Ooh No! What have I done this time." She knows that it couldn't have been good since she is loose-liped when ever she gets tipsy.As she struggles to remember what happened, she reaches for her phone to call John. Just then,she hears a light knock on the door. To her surprise, she opens the door to see John standing outside. He peeked his head, giving a flashy peerly white smile as always. "Surprise!" He spreads his arms for a warm hugShe gasps in shock to see john. Just as if he always had a telescope somewhere pointed to the back of her head, seeing that he always showed up at the right time. "Ooh... Thank God. You're here, just right ontime. I was just

Plans for the beach picnic

After much murmuring and hesitation, she strolls sluggishly towards her phone and it stops bustling. "ThankGod. Finally!...But you know I wasn't going to answer that either ways right?" She smiles with beams of relief."I guess, you never seeze to amaze me then." John shakes his head with light Smiles. "That reminds me, it's Saturday!""Saturday...So–""So it's a time to cool off from work stress and really unwind not getting drunk and embarrassed all over your boss.""Hahahaha, hahahaha." Hey both bursts in laugh.Her smiles and laughs only lasted for some seconds even as John is still lost in laugh. Her mind races back to last night, hearing John tease her with the word UNWIND.She rubs her left eye and adds, "Really? You really had to use that punch line, now."John freezes his eyebrows up, gulping down a jolt of saliva in slow pace at Susan's smirks. Seeing the sad look on Susan's face, he walks closer and adds, "Hey.. c'mon Susi girl. I was only joking. I didn't mean for it to com
