***Emily's POV***
After a while without answering, the person got fed up and walked away.
"Get your filthy hands off me. What were you trying to do?. This is so unprofessional."
"Really?, is unprofessional that you want me as much as I want you?"
"Are you nuts?. I don't want you, I never wanted you and I will never want you.!"
"That wetness between your thighs says otherwise."
"I am no wood. I have feelings and you forced me to get wet." I climbed off his desk daring him to stop me.
"I got to get back to work sir."
I left him speechless in his office returning to mine. I bet I am the only lady here that can stand up to him. All my other female colleagues throw themselves at him and even the males do too. I can't lie about his looks but his behavior sucks. He is too arrogant and selfish. He feels he needs to be worshipped but I think otherwise.
I picked my phone from my desk and dialed Edna's number to find out whether she had gotten to work safely before it started raining. After the call with her, I proceeded to work on the many files that laid on my desk. Even though we have an accountant, I still have to go through the figures, sales and transactions we have made throughout this month. The accounts area is very huge just like this company. Pitts medical center is one of this country's biggest medical supply centers. We manufacture, test and distribute various medical equipments. We own factories where these equipment are being made. This varies from wheelchairs, stretchers, pregnancy tests, thermometers and so on. So you can imagine how big this building is. It's a family business that belongs to the Pitt's family and was passed down to Matthew Pitts, my boss.
Since I started working here two years ago, That man has been trying to date me, no! actually get me to his bed despite the fact that he is married and has two kids with his Wife. Poor woman, she always had to deal with her cheating husband. That's the price you pay for marrying an extremely handsome man.
I was studying to become a medical doctor at John Hopkins. But after my premedical studies I couldn't further to medical school. I decided to raise money by working so I continue later. And the open position of a PA at Pitts medical center provided the best chance to make an income.
I lost track of time until Eli from the manufacturing department who had become a very close friend of mine called my name from behind my desk.
"Hello Emmy,"
"Hi Eli, long time. I have not seen you during this whole week. w******p?"
"Sorry friend. There was a lot to do. We have some order from Mayo clinic and some hospitals from France and Italy so we were trying to meet their demands and reach the amount they asked for."
"Oh that might be hectic."
"Yeah it's been one hell of a week. The group and I will be going to the cinema to watch some new thrillers then head to the club to reduce the stress of this week. I came to ask if you wanna come along."
"Mmm, I got nothing to do tomorrow so why not? I will love to come. It's been awhile I hung out with you guys."
"Great. We will come and pick you at six so we head to the cinema."
"That's okay. Will be ready by then."
"Thanks, got to go home. By the way, what time are you closing today?"
"Will be closing at five -thirty."
"But Emmy it's past five-thirty, it's almost seven.
"Oh goodness gracious. I lost track of time. I think I better start going."
"Come, pack your things, I will drive you home."
"Never mind dear, I brought my car." I said waving him off but not in a rude way
"Okay then, take care."
"I will, you too."
Eli has been in this company long before I came here. He is the head of the manufacturing department and he is so good at his work. I admire and respect him very much because at a young age, he has the wisdom that made him successful. I logged off my computer content that I have completed my work for the week. I picked my belongings before heading to the elevator. Getting to the parking lot, I realized the only cars left was that of mine and Mr.Pitts meaning he is still in his office. I care less. I have avoided him since the incident that happened in his office this afternoon and i am not ready to run into him here. I got into my car, accelerated it and drove home.
Oh my God! I am so tired. I fetched my keys to open my apartment but it was already open. The only person who has access to my apartment is Edna so it must be her.
"Finally my best friend decided to come home."
"Spill it Edna. What do you want?"
"How did you know I have something to say weirdo?"
"First I met you this afternoon and second you haven't visited me twice a day since you got married. You prefer your husband f*****g the daylight out of you."
"Yeh yeh yeh whatever."
"Now tell me why you came."
" I'm hurt. Do I need a reason to be here?"
"No you don't but I know you too well Eddy and I feel you are hiding something so please bring it out."
"Ok but please don't get mad at me."
"Now you freaking me out. What is it?"
"Igaveyournumbertoyourmother."
"What! why will you do that?"
"You got that?"
"Of Course I did. Why will you give my number to her?. You know I want nothing to do with them. "
"I'm sorry. She called me asking to speak with you but I told her I couldn't but she started crying saying your dad is dying and wants to see you before he is gone. I have a heart. I couldn't be mean so I gave it to her. Please forgive me."
"And where did she get your contact.? Don't tell me you have been in contact with her since we came here."
"Hell no!. What do you think of me?. My mum gave her my contact. I was surprised when she called me."
"And what is it about dad dying?."
"She said he has blood cancer and has very little time to live so he wants to see you. I'm sure she will call you soon."
