" Sam you can't run away this time"
I know it's him . The one I wanted to avoid with all costs. One who made me hide in this place.
The footsteps are coming closer and closer. The thought of running away became impossible because it's already too late. Brain storming for solution is also worthless. The only thing I can do now is to wait for the hell to get over as smooth as possible. Waiting is hard than I thought. Every seconds feel like hours and more and I stayed their without breathing.
The feel of his touch on my shoulders gave me shivers. When he finally pulled me to face him the lump that stuck in my throat moved down with worries.
" Now I'm here Sam "
" To meet you". His words gave me shivers.
Tears are getting ready to jump as soon as fast. But no I can't. I won't show him that I'm weak. Not in this lifetime.
I shake off his hand that touching my shoulder " wh.. what do you want now" I tried to say it without stutters.
"Isn't that obvious . All I want is ...you".
All my mind saying was 'R U N'
I have to leave now at this moment. I have to escape.
"I'm watching you sam" he said with a smile and walked away. Then suddenly stopped in the middle and again smiled at me. I have a never scared of a smile like today.
My legs are shaking. As soon as his image disappeared from the sight I flopped into the floor. Tears started to flow through my cheeks like it was waiting for all this time to finally break free. This is not good. I have to move out from this place.
I grabbed my bag that was flopped along with me in the floor and walked fast to my apartment. Once I reached the room I instantaneously started to pack my things.
While collecting cloths from the closest something entangled with them. I took a closer look and recognized my office ID. The cloths slipped from my hand and I stayed there intact while staring at it.
A drop of salty tears wet the ID with a sad face.
" What am I going to do. I can't leave "
I flopped again to the floor while hugging tightly my ID and continued weeping.
" I just got a new job and started to live a normal life . What am I going to do about the job contract I signed it without thinking about this i can't run away this time".
Narrator POV
Breaths are getting heavier and the little moans escaped from her mouth rhythmically. She wept like she lost everything like the world is ending like there is no tomorrow. It's wasn't clear whether the clothes that she was wearing sobbed along with her because of her sad situation or because of her tight grasp.
Sam POV
After a long time of crying I felt better than before and I reached into a conclusion.
" I won't runaway. Not anymore"
The next morning I entered the office with full spirit and confidence. As I reached my cabin I saw a figure standing there leaning to my desk . His black full sleeve t shirt didn't gave me any feeling of familiarity.
Who could it be and on top of that the office time is not started yet. Hope it's not a trouble maker like last time.
As I got closer to him the figure turned to face me .
William Alder.
What the..... who was I expecting.
Why is he wearing his casuals. Was it an off day. I was lost in my reasoning and didn't recognized that I was being observed by my boss from head to toe. while rising one of his eyebrows and scratching his head with his left hand he came closer to where I was stopped.
I bowed at him immediately.
" Sir you are early. Do you need something"
" Come with me " he grabbed my hand without any further explanation and walked towards the elevator.
" Sir where are we going. Do we have a meeting outside" what am I even asking if that's the situation he would have be in his suit.
" No we are going to a party "
" pa .. party" What party. Don't tell me he want me to be his partner.
"But sir you have to bring your partner to the party right " I worthlessly tried to pull off from his grasp.
Not working.
" I will contact any of your woman " my second try of escape. I started to scrolling the women list ( yes it's a long one 😒😒😒) in the tab.
He snatched the tab from my hand then shouted very loudly and clearly.
" I said YOU it means it's you "
What's going on here how can I be his partner. God what kind of test is this . Suddenly he stopped in the middle and said while looking at me with a smirk
"Don't misunderstand . It's because all other woman's are trouble . If I bring them they will think that they are special "
Wtf . He is really is a r00d jerk .
He dragged me to his car and then the car finally pulled in front of a famous makeover salon.
" We can't go there like this. Let's do some makeover for ya"
I know what he meant . I shook my head in irritation and walked behind him. Everything happened so fast and now I'm doing my makeover. All the fighting spirit I gathered in the morning are long gone.
They brought me a black stand collar black Mudi dress going out long sleeve cocktail dress .
It's done but something is missing. Wait a second.
" Can I wear my glasses " I asked stylist. Because it was my shield that protected me from all those debt collector who haunted me. Then it become a habit .
" No mam . If you wear that all my efforts become fruitless"
" But I can't see without them " it's a lie.
" Ah ha that's a problem. Then we don't have a choice "
I quickly wear them without further enquiries.
" wow. Mam you look beautiful even with your glasses " I gave a embarrassed smile . I don't know whether she is telling the truth or not but my cheeks are burning.
"What do you think your doing " his sudden voice scared the child out of me. Was he there all this time.
I gulped and stood to face him.
" I can't see without them " I lied again.
" You don't have to see anything "
Ehhhhhhh. What is he bluffing
" Just stick to me " wow that's your solution for this. I'm speechless.
" But it will inconvenience for..."
" For " he cut me and asked
" For both of us " I flashed a fake smile.
" For me it's fine though. After all I'm using you here"
Aishhhhhh he is too Frank to be Frank
"Yes sir I will remove it when we are there " that's fine right you jerk.
" Whatever" he walked away annoyed.
The party was in a luxurious....( Name)... Hotel.
He said that he will lead me And see what is happening now. Left alone. I'm already feeling uncomfortable with this dress and the surrounding just toping it up. Seriously I'm allergic to these rich people's.
My boss brought me here with a lots of promises like he will guide me and what am I doing even struggling to find my way to washroom.
" Where the sh* t is washroom it such a big place. Somebody please help me * I mumbled while searching.
I walked and started to check all the corner expecting a sign that shows washroom.
"Sam" I turned to the side to find the person.
"Here" someone waved at me from the side.
Wow what a beautiful woman. She is probably in her mid twenties and wearing a elegant red dress showing her beautiful body features. Her green eyes that resembled ocean dream , pale skin with wavy hairs that is beautifully brushing her shoulders. The view almost made me drop my jaws.
"Do you need any help"
Oh my she is trying to help me. A real angel in this cruel world. Finally God send me a savior. But who is she. They are 3 things that need to be answered. First of all I don't know who she is. 2nd she look like an angel that just dropped from the sky. 3rd she called me by my name that means she knows me. But how?.
"Are you ok" I came back to reality because of her question. And I answered with stutters. How shameful.
" Yes I'm. Well... not really but who..."
I need to know about you but none of them is matter . What matter now us my bladder. Where is the washroom. I wanted to say this out loud but my courtesy sealed my lips shamefully.
She giggled in my response and maintained her composure before answering.
"Oh I'm so sorry I forgot to introduce myself I'm Jade Holden you can call me J . And I'm William's SECRETARY".
what!!!
