The light that beamed through the darkness was what woke me up.
And instinctively, I turned to the other side and laid back still, in an attempt to go back to the wonderful dream I was having.
More like fairy tale.
If waking up means I won't be able to live in the fantasy then I don't want to wake up.
No I shouldn't wake up, I should sleep until I can sleep no more.
Only that I will get fired.
Speaking of which, today we are supposed to have a meeting with the Raphael company, and I should be dressed by 9:00.
I opened my eyes and blinked a hundred times.
I blindly touched everywhere for my phone, to check the time. When it clicked to me that I could check the clock on the wall I had wasted my time already.
It was 7:02, enough time for me to bath and dress up.
I'm a lady I know but it doesn't take so much time for me to dress up, if I had one hour, I would use 55 minutes to bath and the remaining five minutes to dress up.
I literally don't do anything on my face, I pack my hair, make sure my face isn't screaming unkept, then zoom off.
Remembering that I still didn't know where my bag was, I got up from the bad almost like I had a nightmare.
What then an u to wear!
Infact right now I am fully naked but wrapped in the sheets.
I stood and searched around, hoping that my bag had appeared magically in the middle of night while I slept.
But there was no sign of it.
Just great.
I stood, the sheets still wrapped around my body.
Maybe I should go downstairs and check, if it's the workers wrong, they should have figured that out and had brought it to the sitting.
If such things are possible.
Without thinking I began to storm out, hiding under the mercy of the sheets, I held it tight around my, folding my hand to ensure it stays put.
I marched feeling nothing but bedsheet, I heard sounds coming from the kitchen.
Sound? Is that a robber.
Or probably they came to drop off my clothes.
I walked faster, it wasn't untill seconds later that I realized that it was my boss.
Before I could reverse, I was already bumping into my boss, who looked like he too had just woken up from sleep.
Again he had water in hand, and for the first time he didn’t look perfect. His hair looked kind of bushy, but it also looked a lot sexier. I could just run my hand through this heaven and all my worries would come to a stop, just for that moment though.
The veins on his arms were more prominent, his chest heaved heavily, almost like he had thought it was a killer too...
I know better to think that of Mr Teron.
His face showed simplicity, I don't know if that made sense but that’s the word I have for his look.
His face wasn't saying anything, he looked... innocent?
This is the Ethan I have never seen, the one that doesn't look like he is about to commit murder.
I looked at how his lips settled, how his brows are relaxed without the normal wrinkling.
Infact right now, he looked like an innocent child, whom I would love to protect at anytime, even after knowing he isn't mine.
If I had thought that Mr Teron was handsome even at his state of always being angry and rude, then I don't know the word to use now, all I know is that I am being lured to fantasies right now, at this very moment, while I look at him.
Right now he has this wrinkling on his forehead wait.. am I staring?
Or am I drooling?
Which ever it is, I should run to my room and hide, because this is embarrassing.
I Realised that the look on his face was that of a confused child.
"What are you doing Raven?" What am I doing? Nothing, I am just standing here, looking at him like I have never seen a male human before in my whole life.
Dumbass you are looking for your bag..
But it isn't important for him to know right, considering what he did to me yesterday.
Remembering I felt a sudden ache in my chest, anger is what I felt.
From now on, I shouldn't ever have a conversation with Mr Teron outside work, if it would only warrant to disrespect.
"Looking for my bag" I said flatly.
And immediately, I started to look around for the bag.
"That's not what I am asking, what are you wearing?" He inquired from me..
What else?
Can he not see, he is probably blind.
Great, my boss isn't seeing this clearly.
Then it clicked.
God, Raven!
Are you even thinking!
How can I walk in the sitting room, only in the mercies of the sheets wrapped around me.
It isn't even that thick.
I looked down slowly to look at myself.
Holy s**t, my cleavage is out, Infact a lot of my right breasts is barely covered, I could almost see the framing of my n****e.
Oh holy cow, so while I was busy drooling, checking him out, he had my breast all to his mercy.
No, I give up.. immediately, I covered up, this time I wrapped my hands around myself in a way that it rested on my shoulders.
Honestly i had forgotten that my boss existed, it was almost I woke and found myself in a very comfortable bed in an expensive hotel.
What should I say? This is a pure display of stupidity..
Maybe you should start with greeting.
You can pretend as though no question was referred to you.
"Goodmorning sir" I greeted with my head down, if the ground would open up and swallow me, I would be glad.
I know I haven't done all that I want to do, God I haven't even eaten all that I want to it.
I sobbed mentally.
Don't be dumb Raven, you can't possibly die now.
"Can you explain to me why you are like that" he asked with smeared on his face.
"Umm, it was a mistake sir, but I have a good explanation though" I said assuredly.
Raven, you didn't possibly just say that.
He folded his arm and gave this look, like I was stupid.
"Tell me then"
"My clothes, I still can't find them" I announced.
He rose his brows at me, as if what I said wasn't making sense.
Now, the innocent look on his face is no where to be found.
"That's what I came to look for yesterday" I announced again.
He looked like he was irritated almost instantly, he shook his head almost like he was shoving my last statement away.
"So what are you implying? That your clothes made legs and got out of the room?" He asked sarcastically.
This man, God I need strength.
It's almost as if nothing good can come out of his mouth.
"That's not what I am saying, but maybe if you can tell them to look?" I asked with a little hope that the devil would help.
Despite the fact that he is a devil I mean.
"I can't do that, who knows what is inside, I cannot afford for them to go through all the stress for something that isn't worth it" he said simply. With any stutter, what ever he is, it is beyond my understanding. How can he possibly say such things about my very own property, I mean I am standing right in front of him.
What does he expect me to?
I should walk around naked?
I can do that, just that I know I would be raped with his eyes that seems to bore into your soul.
I am angry now.
I cannot even stand his presence right now.
I turned and began to storm out on him.
"Where do you think you're going to?" He asked firmly.
"Inside" I said.
"Stop right there Raven"
Who told him I prefer Raven to Miss Raven, because I don't.
What does he want?
To insult me more?
"Whatever your reason is, that doesn't give you the excuse of coming out with nothing but a sheet wrapped around you" he said.
I felt a swirling in my chest.
If I continue to listen to this man, I will have to get admitted to a hospital.
I heard his sudden groan, like he was loosing patience.
"I don't have anything to wear!" I exclaimed.
"What happened to the clothes you wore yesterday?"
What?
"I can't possibly wear them again! They were stinking" I said amused by his outburst.
"You should have worn them like that" he said screeching his nose.
Cow.
After saying that he started heading to his room.
What the hell.
So what about my clothes.
I should keep walking around naked then?
"How comes you are leaving me here I don't have anything to wear" I complained.
He turned around with a smirk on his face.
"I really don't know Raven, maybe you should inquire from each room"
Why is he so vile.
"Are you serious sir?" I asked calmly now, it's like all hope is lost. On this man.
"Well, yes Raven" there is way he calls the name.
Ughhh.
I looked at him, and I swear I wanted to sob.
I am frustrated.
"Okay" I said.
I quietly started to head to my room.
I heard him took a deep breath before calling bout my name.
If he wasn't my boss, I would have kept moving.
"What's your size, I will order a dress for you" he said a flat voice.
Huh.
I didn't just hear what I heard did I?
"I just asked you a question Raven, talk before no change my mind. Then you would have to walk around with the sheets. I just realized that I don't mind"
Wow.
"Umm, I don't know?" I can't possibly know.
He let out a bellowing sound, "whatever I get, you will wear it like that then"
Without waiting for my reply he disappeared to his room.
Well, well.
What just happened here?
