Chereads / Her, Again / Chapter 9 - Chapter 8: Mistake

Chapter 9 - Chapter 8: Mistake

The rest of the day went on without much of any human interaction as I tried my BEST to stay inside my cubicle and get some actual work done.

I haven't seen my boss after our session in the morning. I just heard him shout at someone on his phone while he was leaving the building and went to God knows where.

And yes I did take a sneak peak when I heard him outside. *my subconscious face palms herself for the nth time*

It was lunch time so I went in the cafeteria to grab something to eat while on my way there I tried to see whether my boss was back by walking as slow as I could infront of his office. I'm sure I look like a limping turtle who had sex the whole night while doing that but who cares?!

To my disappointment I couldn't hear a sound from inside, *maybe he hasn't returned yet.*

I met Marcus on the way to the cafeteria and decided to have lunch together. Some girl from his department tagged along whose name was Maya, she seemed like a nice person. We all were enjoying our lunch while having little chat when Maya's phone got a text which made her gasp when she checked its content.

"Guys look at this!! Looks like our boss got together with his ex-girlfriend!" She said while showing us a pic of our boss and an elegant blonde and they were KISSING! I remember her she once came to meet him in the office!

"You know I never liked her, she looks so fake, I mean she is fake with all those fake boobs and all, God knows what boss sees in her!" Maya ranted.

"Who sent you the pic Maya" I asked her totally ignoring her rant.

"One of our coworker's sent this in our group. He is on leave these days so he went to this new Italian restaurant to have lunch with his girlfriend today and saw our boss there with her." She replied still looking at the pic.

I know this should not feel anything but man I don't know why it hurts. It's not like we were dating, we just kissed! But still I feel betrayed somewhat.

*Maybe its because of your self respect that you threw away out of the window Kristi*

Whatever. I won't let him touch me from now on. He is my boss and I am gonna maintain a fucking professional relationship with him.

I am NOT one of his whores whom he can fuck whenever he wants.

"Kristi...Kristi!! Are you okay? What happened I have been calling you but you seemed lost somewhere else. Is everything okay?" Marcus asked with worry in his eyes. He looked so concerned. What?! Why would he be?! Did I see it wrong?

"Oh! I'm so sorry, I was just thinking about work, it has been hectic. I'm okay Marcus thanks for asking" I said with a tight smile on my face. I tried to smile as naturally as I could but I'm sure I look constipated!

*Why can't I just mingle with guys like Marcus and not with someone like my boss?!l He is totally out of my league! Why can't I just go for a sweet guy like Marcus and be happy?*

"If there's anything bothering you please come to me Kristi" He said while tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear but I didn't feel anything. Actions like these should make your heart race and blush right??!! It happened when HE did it.

"Sure Marcus, I will. And I'm fine don't worry. Now go back lunch time is almost over. I'll see you later bye" I didn't wait for his reply as I grabbed my bag and walked out of the cafeteria.

I don't know why am I so angry but I AM. And I really don't want to release all my anger on someone innocent.

The whole day passed and it's time to go home but not a single sign of my boss. He never came back.

*Maybe he is busy fucking that blonde on his bed that he didn't even care to come back*

3 days have passed and I have barely seen him. He doesn't even acknowledge me when we are in the same room. He would just ask for whatever file he needs and go on with his work.

*What in the ducking world did I do?!*

He even screamed at me yesterday for NOT maintaining my PROFESSIONALISM in the office when I tried to talk to him about what happened between us.

He said it was a mistake and that I should mind my own business from now on.

FINE. I'll show him how professional I can be. Its him who is the biggest jerk over here and needs to learn basic human manners!
