An alluring night....

The chilling north wind was passing by randomly through a darkened room.The white transparent curtains were floating in the air as the winds blow by the half opened window.

Over the pink colored bedsheet, a girl was sleeping soundly putting on a simple night gown. Her eyes were closed tightly but her sharp eyebrows were frowning together occasionally appearing an exhausted face.

Drops of sweat were slowly appearing on her forehead as her sleepy head was moving left and right vigorously as if she was recalling some haunted memories.

𝙄𝙍𝙄𝙎'𝙎 𝙋𝙊𝙑~

The hypocritical ringtone pierced through my eardrums breaking my beauty sleep as I jumped off from the bed panicking.

My breathing was rapid as I exhaled some long breathe to stable the state of my mind. I felt my sweat dripping from my forehead following down to my collarbone as I brushed my own palm over it.

I was having those nightmares again. what should I say? Nightmares or Memory?

I had been regularly having those pills prescribed by my psychiatrist. Still it showed no sign of stopping as I guess though she warned me previously that it would take some time to recover myself.

My phone rang again loudly.. Again I jolted at the sudden interference and mentally cursed myself for setting this creepy song as my ringtone.

Reluctantly I reached out for the phone through the amidst and finally saw the dialing screen. My heart skipped a bit and I consoled myself inwardly before tapping on the answer button.

The cold, magnetic tone echoed in my ear,

" What made you so long to take the phone?Do you think that I have so much free time to call you for a whole night?"

I gulped down my fearful saliva and replied in a low voice though he was in fault,

" I.. I'm sorry.. I was sleeping soundly.."

In reply, I heard his sigh of anger as I waited to hear an enlarged cursing again. Much to my surprise, his voice turned soft but serious,

" I have concealed your Identity to IRIS YOUNG. Get ready for tomorrow."

I nodded without replying and parted my lips hesitantly to ask his whereabouts as I haven't seen him for a few months. Before my words could leave my tongue, I heard the beeping sound from other side.

I put down the phone and stared at the screen blankly. A bitter smile formed in my lips without my conscious as I felt my eyes tearing up.

No, IRIS.. You can't cry.. You have buried your old self years ago.. Don't shed your tears anymore..

I lifted up myself from the bed and walked towards my half opened window as it gave the best view of the busy town.

The shivering breeze welcomed my body as I felt a little cold on my sleepy face.

As I looked up in the luminous sky, a round full moon with the warming light fell on my face showering me with it's natural beauty. With a soft smile pestering on my lips, I enjoyed the peaceful view and shifted down my hazel eyes to see the top buildings in the capital.

Putting on a soft smile, I spoke softly swinging in my memories,

" HELLO SILVERSTONE CITY. LONG TIME.."

The night passed by quickly. After tossing around in my bed, I fell asleep again burying my scars and pains that I couldn't share with anyone..

NEXT DAY,

I woke up from a urging tiny voice beside my ear,

" Mommy.. mommy.. wake up.. wake up.. It's 7..It's 7..you need to go for work.."

I shrugged nonchalantly ignoring the voice and went back to sleep burying my head inside the pillow so that his annoying voice couldn't reach my ears.

But he was already habituated with my behaviour. Thus he increased the sound of his tone and repeated the lines again and again.

I finally got up annoyingly and threw a cushion on his face yelling,

" Stressed Tomato, can't you just bear to see me in sleep?"

I threw a harsh glare on my home robot who was here early in the morning to break my beauty sleep. Well, I was basically accustomed to live alone by my own.But my dear besty Daisy Maxwell was firmly against it.

She was majoring at robotic science in a renowned varsity here. At my 21st birthday, she gifted me this mini robot to take care of me. For god sake, I didn't know that what kind of program that she set up inside this robot. It always trailed me wherever I go inside my house. Even if I coughed lightly, it would call the emergency number xxx to ask for any doctor.

The worst part was that Daisy had commanded him to call me mommy. As for it's nickname, I chose to call him stressed tomato. It was tiny and round like a rolling ball along with his red painted steel material body just like a tomato.His facial expression seemed to me like a stressed one. Thus I nicknamed him as STRESSED TOMATO.

Grunting annoyingly scratching my messy hairs, I went to open the door. As soon as my glass door opened, an intense fragrance filled up my nostrils causing me to look into the kitchen subconsciously.

And yeah,my anticipation was right.. There was she, Daisy Maxwell, my lovely bitchy best friend.

I slowly walked towards the kitchen and mumbled standing at the doorway,

" What.. are you doing here early in the morning?"

She looked back at me smiling widely as her brown eyes were sparkling in excitement.Her hairs had boy cut giving off an intelligent woman vibe as she was damn talented. Her addiction had always been creating new robots.

She licked her index finger greedily wiping off the ketchup and walked over me widening her bare arms to catch me in her embrace.

I remained motionless as she pulled me into a tight hug before speaking anxiously,

" Oh babe, I came to help you. This is your first day joining in the presidential team. I'm too much excited than you."

She knocked my head lightly and continued,

" I knew that you are a lazy pig and won't get up early. So I thought of making this delicious dishes for you to celebrate your first day at work. "

I smiled back with gratitude and she shoved me out urging,

" Now, get your ass out of here.. Jesus, you are going to be late at the first day of your work.. Hurry up.. "

I laughed before dragging my feet towards the washroom and spoke loudly,

" Okay okay my dear aunty. I'm going to get ready within ten minutes."

I entered the bathroom briskly and switched on the shower as the cold water poured over my messy hairs. I exhaled some long breath to refresh my mood as my right hand subconsciously reached for the soap.

After finishing my quick shower, I stepped out from the bathroom wrapping the thick towel around my lightly soaked figure.

I walked over to the closet and pushed it open quickly. My eyes fell on the branded clothes as I frowned hard choosing the best attire.

I knew that all were branded clothes and some might be millions dollar. But those all feel cringy over my body.

Reluctantly I chose a blackberry colored sleeveless top hanging at the corner and put it down on my bed. I stood in front of the mirror staring at my reflection blankly.

My skin was looking fresh and smooth after having the morning shower as I tried to smile. For some unknown reason, my smile looked so fake that even my eyes could tell it.

My mind reverberated those words before coming back in the city thus I sighed helplessly before forming a forceful smile.

You must seduce the president...!

Only your appearance can complete the

mission..!

Don't you dare to cross your limit..!

I will be eyeing over you always..!

I flashed away those thoughts forcefully and went for the top before unwrapping the towel around my body.

I put on the top hugging till my knees as I went to switch on the hair dryer. I applied some light make up over my face and used the concealer to hide my dark circles. I left my hairs fall down randomly and painted my lips with the red one.

Within five minutes, I finished off preparing myself as I looked back at the mirror to see my reflection and my mouth fell open in awe.

Holy shit..!!

I am looking like a seductress than an employer.

Forget it..!! They had already told me earlier that I have to put on an attractive face to impress everyone as I will be the only female employer there.

I stepped out from my room holding the pursue tightly and my other hand was carrying some documents of mine.

As I went towards the dinning table, I found Daisy waiting for me already. She grinned like a fool and whistled looking at me from head to toe as I roll my eyes on her.

I heard her flattering voice,

" Oh my my! You are looking damn hot IRIS. Heez, I'm suddenly feeling worry for Mr. President and those girls who are dying over him."

I took the chair opposite her and she continued lowering down her voice like a professional gossiper,

" But I heard that Mr President is asexual. Although it was random rumors but his employers are male. By the way, how did you manage to get the job as a female?"

She pointed her index finger on me and asked with a threatening tone,

" Iris, are you trying to hiding from me? Or did you cast a magic spell over the president,

huh? "

I choked on my orange juice vigorously and replied,

" Jeez, I have never seen the president in reality except those news channel. How on earth I will know him? One of my foreign friend managed this job for me as they were looking for a female secretary."

I winked at her mischievously and added proudly,

" My top-notch grades have passed the interview.. "

Well, I felt proud of myself for graduating from two different subjects at a time. I had graduated at computer science from DKL University, one of the top ten universities in the whole world. At the same time, I had graduated at English literature from another renowned university at UX state as I had a deep attraction towards it.

Daisy parted her lips to say something but I hauled up hurriedly when my eyes fell on the mechanic clock 7:40

Jeez! I can't be late.

I waved bye at her and quickly left my apartment running towards the half closing elevator as I shouted,

" Wait..!"

I paused and stumped on my foot angrily for being too confident. Unexpectedly the elevator reopened and I smile lightly running into it.

I thanked the lady who considered my request to wait for me as she smiled back sweetly.

With a ding, the elevator reached at the ground floor and I rushed out without looking anywhere. Lucky I got the taxi as soon as I stepped out and instructed the driver briefly,

" THE GRAY RESIDENT".

The driver gave me a closer look as he started the taxi and I focused on rearranging my documents.

About fifteen minutes later, the taxi arrived at the resident and I scooped down even not bothering to take the changes from driver.

I panted heavily as the guards checked my body to ensure the security. My black heels tiptoed on the marble floor as I made my way inside the office.

I found a boy at his twenties sitting on the reception and tapping on the keyboard professionally.

I asked gently,

" Excuse me, I'm a new employee here. Can you tell me that which department I should go?"

The boy shifted his eyes from the screen and I clearly noticed the surprise flashed in his eyes.

He took a few seconds to give a reply as if he had been traumatised after seeing me.

Do I look weird?

He cleared his throat to avoid the awkwardness and nodded before responding robotically,

" Yes. Take the elevator at the left and go at the 15th floor. You will find Mr.Scott's office. He is the assigned boss of you, Miss Young."

I calculated everything inside my head quickly as I'm a fast learner and ran towards the elevator without glancing anywhere.

As I stepped into the elevator, I vaguely heard the boy's voice wait but I ignored it and pressed the push button of 15th floor.

I have to reach at Mr Scott's office before 8.

My phone vibrated a bit as I took it out from the purse and saw a message from Daisy. I laughed at her dirty words and thought of sending her a reply as it would take a few seconds still to reach the 15th floor.

Suddenly the elevator flung open at the eighteenth floor as I focused on typing my keyboard and heard a man's brief conservation over the phone.

I vaguely felt a cold figure stepping into the elevator and stood just in front of me towering over my figure.

I laughed loudly when I saw Daisy's blatant reply " Just don't start licking his dick.I heard that he is damn handsome."

As I stretched out my fingers to send a reply and suddenly felt a piercing gaze on me. I lifted up my suspicious gaze..

My whole body froze as I meet those blue ocean like eyes ogling at me.

I spit out like a breathless whisper,

" Mr.. Mr..President. "
