As she entered the office, he was sitting in his chair staring at his laptop. It felt so odd sharing the office with him. She didn't understand the reason as to why he made her be staying in his office. It didn't make any sense to her but she had to do as he said. He wanted her to be staying at his office and that's what she was supposed to do.
"Hey Shawn", she greeted him as she headed to her desk. She was already used to calling him by his name. That is how he always wanted her to address him. He didn't like being formal around her even though she was his employee.
"Hi Cat today I have arrived before you...", he mentioned lifting his brows at her. She wondered why he told her that yet she arrived before time. He was the one who had arrived so early.
"Aaah but ain't late Shawn", she had to tell him that. She was sincere to him. She stared at him intensely as she waited for his next move or reaction.
"Yes you ain't late was just kidding you", he let out a chuckle as he stared at her hilarious reaction. She had started to freak out since she didn't want to ever offend her boss.
"Ooh nice", she mentioned with a forced smile on her face. She didn't want to be rude and had to do that. To pretend that she was fascinated by his homemade joke. He stood from his desk and headed towards her.
Her heartbeat started beating faster as she stared at him while he was approaching her. She didn't understand the reason why she always felt that way when she was around him. No other guy makes her feel that way like how Shawn makes her feel. He always makes her nervous all the time that he was near her. She tried her best to not look shy or nervous as he approached her.
"I had fun at the party... you made my night Cat", he notified her with a wide grin on his face. He wasn't speaking like her boss. He was staring at her with an amused look like she was the best thing that has ever happened to him. She didn't understand the reason why he was doing that. He was making have so many unanswered questions in her mind. She didn't know what he was thinking of when he was staring at her that way.
"Aaah really...", she thought that she didn't hear him well and wanted him to repeat his words. Instead of repeating the words, he chuckled loudly this time. He sat at the edge of her desk as his gaze on her still continued. She didn't like what he was trying to do to her. She didn't like that he was making her anxious again for the hundredth time for no reason at all.
"You amuse me a lot do you know that", he mentioned still sitting at her desk. She nodded lifting her head so that she could have a better glimpse of him.
"Why do I amuse you", she decided to ask him anyway. She didn't want to start guessing things which she didn't know the answers.
"You are just funny and cheeky", he stood and headed towards his desk. He left her with so many questions in her head. She wanted to ask him why he said that but decided to keep quiet anyway. She didn't want to hear his answer. They continued working as Cat was receiving calls and organising meetings for her boss. After a while, the door creaked as it opened slowly. Cat turned to have a glimpse of the person who was entering the office.
A beautiful lady dressed in black entered the office. Her eyes widened as she stared at Shawn who was still working. When Shawn lifted his head and looked at her, a faint grin appeared on his face. Cat could tell that they knew each other cause of the way, the lady was staring at Shawn.
"Are we enemies now huuh...", the lady asked Shawn as she sat at the chair. She didn't wait for him to first welcome her. No, she didn't wait for that, she already made herself comfortable.
"No we ain't been just busy", Shawn informed her. Cat was wondering the entire time who the lady was. She has never seen her before so she couldn't tell who she was.
"Ooh wow that's nice who is she...", the lady asked him as she pointed at Cat. She was so shameless and couldn't hide it that she wanted to know who Cat was.
"She is my personal assistant...", Shawn answered her. Cat was pretending the entire time that she wasn't hearing them. She continued to do her job like nothing was happening.
"Ooh nice so why do you have her in your office", the lady asked him. She found it a bit strange that Cat was in his office too. It didn't make sense to her and she wondered why Cat was working in his office even though she is his assistant.
"Cause I want her to be closer to me. And why are you here in the first place", Shawn asked her. He wanted to know why she had visited him without telling him.
"Is it bad visiting my ex boyfriend....", she mentioned with a wide grin on her face. Cat was still listening to their conversation but was pretending that she wasn't hearing them. She felt like turning to stare at them but she couldn't. She had to pretend that she didn't hear what they were talking about.
"Ooh Lisa you never stop to amuse me", Shawn mentioned. He started staring at Cat who was working like nothing was happening. He couldn't believe that she didn't react when Lisa first entered the room. He thought that Cat would be staring at them but that wasn't the case. She was continuing with her work minding her own business.
"You know me well Shawn I can never forget a cuttie like you", Lisa winked at him as the corners of her lips rose. Cat turned and glimpsed at them. Shawn seemed amused by her and that made Cat be jealous. She wasn't happy that he was staring at her that way. Even though she was his ex, to her he wasn't supposed to be entertaining her like he was doing. She felt like exiting the office but she couldn't. She didn't want them to think that their interaction was affecting her.
