" Do you wanna quit " he asked
Now I don't want to think about anything else. If me staying away from can solve things then I want to do it.
" Yes please help me" I said it while wiping my tears.
" Ok I leave it to me Sam. Take a leave for rest of the day" he smiled and patted my shoulders.
I don't know whether I'm doing the right thing or not but I can't let it go like this.
Gradually I calmed down and regained my composure. Mr. Benjamin dropped me in my apartment.
I spent rest of the day on my bed. Night fall down even before I could realize it. Jess called me to check whether I'm doing ok or not. It's true that if you have a good friend half of your worries will be lifted.
" Sam where were you?. I searched you all over the company. Are you sick?. Do you want to visit a hospital?. Are You okay now?" she showered me with questions.
" Yes Mam I'm okay now. I had a mild fever that's why I left early. Sorry I couldn't inform you earlier" I lied about the reason but now I'm really sick after all that sobbing.
" Do you want me to come there?" she asked so lovely.
" No jess it's a mild fever so it's k'
" Ok then take care. If you're not feeling well just call asap"
"Yes Mam"
I disconnected the call and put my phone on the table then covered my body with blanket. Before I could enter in to lala land someone ringed the doorbell.
I slowly removed the blanket which started to give heat to my body and walked towards the door . As I walked I started to feel dizzy. I opened the door and my vision completely blacked out.
Shoon POV
I didn't saw her coming back. Is she still in the office. What kind of place is she working at. It's safe here so I didn't bothered her. Also I can watch her more because I got a house near her apartment this time.
I always tried to find one near to her so that I can protect her. All I wanted was to make her safe with all costs.
I can't wait anymore I need to make sure. I ringed her door bell. No response I again ringed and wait patiently I don't want to make her angry this time.
After few minutes it opened but I heard something fell behind the door. I quickly pushed the door and saw her legs. She was pale like a white paper. I touched her forehead, she is burning. I Lifted her in my arms and laid her on the bed.
Sam POV
I opened my eyes. I looked around. How did I get here. I slowly walked out of my room my head is hurting. I saw a person sitting on my couch. Is that Jess?. My eyes widened when I saw face of that person .
" Shoon .... How did you get in "
" The medicines are on the table. And I prepared porridge incase your hungry. Then I'm leaving take care "
He said and left the house.
I blinked my eyes.
" What's going on " I stroked back of my head
Why is he helping me. Am I still sleeping.
Stomach growling*
The porridge was perfect as he always do.
" There's nothing wrong with this "
I finished it in a one go without leaving anything. When I finally met my bed again I had lots of questions in my head.
The next day as usual I started to wear my office dress. When I watched my face on the mirror I realized that I don't have to this anymore. I'm not his secretary anymore.
I sat on my bed and looked outside through my windows.
What's now. Do I have to go through all that annoying job hunting process again. Will I ever get a chance to see him again?.
My thoughts are interrupted by my ringing phone.
William POV
She left early yesterday because of fever. That's what other staff's told me. Are they close 🤔.
It's already 10 and she is still not here. Is she okay. I waited another ten more minutes .
" That's it " I took my coat from the rack and walked towards the door. But someone knocked at the door before I open it. Smile curved on my lips. What's this feeling?.
" Yes come in "
My smile disappeared as soon as I found that the person who entered is not the one I was expecting.
" Good morning sir " she greeted me with a smile. I shook my head in response. My leg is itching for going out.
" Sir these are the list of candidates for your new secretary"
" What!!! My new secretary " my blood start to boil with frustration. What's going on
" What happened to Sam "
" Oh sorry sir. About that...she was transferred to another department"
" With whose permission" I clenched my fist.
"That's what Mr. Benjamin ordered to the chief"
"Okay you can go "
Uncle transferred her. But Why?. He is the one who appointed her in the first place. Then what now?. What's going on. I bite my lips in annoyance.
Narrators POV
William stormed out of the room to visit his uncle. His face was filled with mixture of annoyance and confusion.
He pushed the door without knocking it.
" What's all this un..." His words stuck inside his throat when he saw the figure sitting on the couch opposite to his uncle.
Sam POV
I looked at my phone screen. It was a call from William's mother. Why is she calling me.
" Good morning mam"
" Hi honey. Can we meet " she asked with a sweet voice as always.
" Sure mam " I also needed to explain her that I can't look after her son anymore.
She asked me to meet at the office. I didn't wanted to go there but do I even have a choice with this sweet women.
After the call I quickly changed in to casuals and grabbed a cab to the office. Even though it's shameful I still wished to see him at least from far. What if I can't see him never again.
She was waiting in the entrance to the office. I'm not surprised because she was always like that. Sweet and nice. I bowed and greeted her. To my surprise She greeted me with a warm hug. I wonder why the mother and son are like from two opposite poles.
She walked while holding my hand, like a mother. When we reached the 6th floor she smiled and pulled the hand on my hand and knocked at a door it plastered with a board that written Vice Chairman. Is the vice chairman here. I heard that he was on a leave for one years. Is he back now. But that's not important why we are here.
She entered the room and gestured me to enter.
" Hey Sam " I looked up to see that familiar voice.
" Mr. Benjamin!!!" Wtf he is the vice chairman. Well Of Course it's possible after all he is William's uncle.
I'm so dumb to be dumb. All this long I was sharing my hurdles with none other than to the vice chairman 😑.
I smiled awkwardly and bowed to him.
" Come and sit here Sam " William's mother called me while patting on the couch beside her.
" I talked about your situation to sis " I rolled my eyes in surprise. Did he told her that I love him.
" I told her that he is being too mean to you and you can't continue as his secretary" he explained clearly and winked.
Thank God he didn't tell her that I'm in love with her son. I sighed in relief. His uncle chuckled when he saw my relieved expression.
"Sam" William's mother grabbed my hand in her hand and said.
" I thought you can change him. But you are giving up already" the disappointment in her face gave a pain in my heart. But I can't do anything. It's too much for me. looked down depressed.
" But I don't want you to leave our office " I looked her with confusion.
" What about being as my secretary instead of William" as Mr. Benjamin said that I looked back and forth between those two peoples.
"That's why we called you today here" they both said in sync and smiled at me.
Suddenly someone barged into the room. I don't know what I felt when I saw that person. Happiness or sadness, shock or relief. Within this short time did I started to miss him. I wonder. When he saw me I can see that his face is filling with anger. He hates me this much. Even though I want to run away from him my other self wanted to be embraced by his hands to touch by fingers to be loved by him.
" Mom " his face become more annoyed as he saw his mother. His eyes again focused on me. I looked down to cover my tears.
" Sam what's all this" I can feel the suppressed anger in his voice.
He walked towards me and raised his hand to grab me. But before he could someone stopped him by standing in between us.
