EMMA POV
Now I want the mother earth to open up and swallow me already.
He is the man who was sleeping beside me when I woke up with the hangover or we can say that I was sleeping on his bed.
I looked at his face which was very serious and neutral. From the look of his, I can guess that he doesn't remember anything.
I quickly recovered from the shocked phase and politely smiled at him.
"If you done gawking at me then you can sit down." He said arrogantly.
I cleared my throat and get seated on the chair opposite to him.
"Your name?" He asked me.
What the hell!!! is he blind or what??
"Emma Miller. Sir" I answered that silly question.
He closed my CV and looked at me with his penetrating gaze. I was nervously looking here and there and literally shivering under his intense gaze.
He stared at my face for two minutes and when the words which come out of his mouth left me all shocked.
"You are hired."
Is he mad or what? He didn't even ask me a question!!
Suddenly I heard that someone has cleared the throat. I was too lost in my thought that I didn't noticed the he was coming towards me.
Now his face is mere inches away from my face. I quickly got up from the chair and a little away from him maintaining a comfortable distance.
But look like he doesn't like it. He starts walking towards me for closing the gap. I kept on stepping backwards to maintain the gap.
Soon my back hits the wall. I looked at him through my lashes he comes close to me inverting my personal space without removing
his eyes from my face.
He caged me between the wall and his arms. This proximity makes my heart beats faster and heat rising up to face.
I was never being this close to any man other than my dad. He tucked my hair behind the eyes and his lip comes near to my face. This increase my breathing rate.
"Be here at sharp nine in the morning?" he said in a husky voice
"And don't be late. I hate those who are not punctual" he added
I quickly pushed him away. He stumbled a little due to this sudden push. I nervously looked at him and mumbled a thank you and quickly left his office.
As soon as I left the building. I let out a relief sign. What the hell was that? I was so nervous in front of him that I wasn't able to say anything to him...
Oh God!!!
But I was happy that I got the job.
Yayyy!!! Now finally I have a job.
I quickly called Mom to inform her about my hiring. She picked up the call at the fourth ring.
"Hey! Sweetie"
"Hey! Mum know what I got the job!!!!" I said to her in an exciting tone.
"Congratulations sweetie. I am so proud of you." She sounds so happy.
"Thanks, mum!!!" I thanked her. She is the best thing in my life.
Damn, I am at the bus stop shouting crazily and the people are staring at me. I sheepishly smiled at them and sit on the waiting chair.
"Sweetie I am arranging a small party this weekend to celebrate your success. You have to come here. Okay!" She ordered me.
"I will come, mum. I am missing you so much can't wait to see you."
"See ya baby! Bye take care of yourself "
"Love you mum" with this I cut the call.
I took the bus and reached my apartment took a shower and changed into comfortable clothes.
Now I need to inform Mia about this all. I put my tired ass on the couch and dialled her number.
"Just give me the good news babe," she said in the exciting tone.
"Yup! Babe, I got the job but there is a problem. " I said the last part in the low voice.
"Problem?" She asked. I told her everything. She didn't say anything.
"Are you there babe?" I asked her
"Yup! babe, I am here only sorry babe I was just processing all you words in my mind." She said
"What I am gonna do now?" I asked her because I am really confused right now. First thing I don't wanna lose this job and the second thing is my BOSS.
"Don't worry babe. Let's meet somewhere tomorrow after the working hours. Okay! " she said
"Okay! Bye then"
"Bye!"
I had my dinner and move inside my comforter.
Let's see what's tomorrow holding for me!
