The she-devil
"Yes Aunt! I do know that but not to worry, I see you this evening". Stylishly I walked away from answering her question, as she watched me leave in a hurry.
"I hope so child! I hope so"
Aunt mouthed to herself, returning her eyes elsewhere.
Drew's industries
I stepped into my office just to see it decorated with flowers, I had no idea who was responsible for it but something tells me that, Daren knew what was going on, he had so much explaining to do.
"Daren".
Without knocking I step into his office, to decern a man who attained his attention over to me, "who the hell are you and why didn't knock before coming in?".
And there he was, the same man I was drying to see, Mr. Smith drew himself, the murderer who killed my family, and took everything from me, so help me God! I was this close to pouring out my anger on him, but it wasn't time yet, like Aunt says, slow and steady wins the race.
"I am sorry sir! It won't happen again".
I veered my gaze downwards, as Daren stepped into the office.
"Karol, what are you doing here, I told you we didn't have any more meetings" he stylishly pulled me away from his father's deep gaze.
"What meeting son?" He asked recouping the tensed look on his son's face, "it's nothing bad, I took care of it" Daren walks away, holding me by my hands out of the office.
"Let go of me!"
He lets go of my hand the second we returned to my office, "what Is it? Why are you angry?", Daren idlis for my response, but continued talking the moment he loomed his eyes around my office.
"Oh! You mean the Flowers?" He finally got the reason behind my pissed behavior.
"Yes! The flowers! Why all this? Why are you being so nice to me?" I withdrew a step backward away from him.
"
Why all this question? Can't I be nice for once?" He says back
"No! No you cannot, what do you want from me Daren, because I don't buy the shitty response you just told me".
I needed to know the real for darkens niceness towards me, it was either he knew something about me or rather he wanted my help.
"So!"
His eyes loom around, it was as if he was trying to gather his words, within I hopped he doesn't think of lying.
", Firstly I'll like to apologize for all this" he talked about the flowers, "but the only truth I know is that the first time I set my eyes on you, I took this liking towards you".
"What!"
I found it hard to believe his reasons, thus this isn't an Indian movie, why the boy falls in love with the girls during the first meeting, this is real life and I would be very stupid to believe his corny words to me, it felt too good to be true.
"Get out Daren"
Not once did he try to alter any more words to me, Daren retunds his eyes back to the door, ambling out.
He must be very foolish to think I'll fall for his talks, I ain't that stupid nor naive, who knows aunt might be right about him, there was something strange about his loving attitude towards me.
8:00pm
The whole day, I worked with him with my face upside down, he looked at me, as it instantly gave it away I was still mad at him, "I am sorry if I made you angry?" He calms lifted my eyes back to meet his gloomy look.
"Sorry for?" I said idling for his reply, "for earlier and also for the flowers" he returns his words back wearing a weak smile on his face.
His eyes sanked sorrows, his hands impatiently awaited for mu response, as well as the constant tapping of his feet.
"It's okay Daren, I forgive you".
"Thank you," he returned his gaze back into his laptop, with a serious look on.
Afterwards, he took a step backwards and watched me leaving his office, later on walked out heading towards his car, "goodnight" he gets inside and drove away with saying anymore words to me.
His cold and distant attitude to me, made me feel uncomfortable but hopefully everything goes back to normal the following Morning.
The next morning
As usual I got dressed, kissed my aunt and head over to the office, for some strange reasons I wanted something out of the ordinary to happen but nothing did, my office returned to it's normal look, meanwhile Daren walked passed my office and not once did he stop to say, "hi" not as if I am complaining but you know, he should have.
After a while, he sends for me to his office, with the way he sounded it was important, "good morning Daren, did you send for me?". I never knew what happened last night was going to change the way he spoke to me, now Daren not only speaks, he also gets agrivated by everything I do.
"Don't you listen, keep the documents over there".
In a raised tone he pointed out to me, the whole day my ears received constant bantering from him, which got me to the edge the second he decided to bring in my family.
"Enough, I can't take it anymore! If this is how you talk to your employees, then I am sorry I don't want to walk for you, annoying piss of shit".
Daren annoying attitude pushed me to the wall! As I angrliy walked out of his office, and banged the door from behind.
"Idiot"
I got Pissed off to a extent, I heaved up my bag and the moment I opened up the door to leave, I saw his standing in front of me.
"Why are you here? Did you come to insult me the more?" I frowned at him_ as he pulled me back, ambling in as well.
"Look! I am sorry okay! I had a rough night and I apologize for pouring my anger on you" he veered his gaze down, asserting that out to me, I felt he was remorseful for what happened, which triggered me to forgive.
"It's okay"
Daren immediately lifted up his gaze, "thank you, now shall we head over to the office and try to fix the problem we are in?" He awaits for my response, "yes! Yes we can but first, you need to promise me, that you won't ever do this again". I said.
Thus after a while he shakes his head, affirming my words with a smile on. "Now let's go!" We both returned back to his office and like he promised, he was in his good behavior.
