Walking on the dark streets as she just left her apartment to feel free from all the thinking, thinking, and thinking she went out to feel some fresh cold air that hits her warm skin,
Stepping inside the same old park, she sat on her usual spot, under the big tree sheltering her from snow
She took a deep breath inside and let the cold smoke out of her parted lips, Anna closed her eyes feeling cold as the weather was more freezing today
She looked everywhere but see no one,
9:00 pm but everyone was inside their warm sweet home, while Anna here sitting alone right down the tree if anyone would see her sitting here in this weather they would probably think that she's crazy for torturing her self but to Anna, it wasn't torturing it was more like healing~

Another day
Anna stepped into her company it's been a week now as she's working here and there were no interactions with that man, and she didn't even know his name, her own boss's name nobody told her as she didn't talk to anyone but Sarah and she didn't ask flashing her uninterested self
Sarah didn't talk about the boss as she was a little scared of Anna's side that she saw that day in front of their boss,
he didn't come to the company after that day that made Anna think that it might be possible that he's on a business trip again
Anna got to her usual seat where she does all her work, looking at her left she didn't see anyone assuming Sarah took a day off Anna sat resting her back on the chair comfortably as she knew that no one would like to talk to her and the only person who talks to her in this whole office was on leave
"Where is Sarah"
A girl came running as she utters In one breathe, asking for Sarah
"She didn't come today!" Anna replied looking at her pale face
"What's happening? you fine?"
Showing a bit of concern, Anna asked
"The boss... he is really angry right now, Sarah sent the wrong files which canceled his very important deal. and - and he called her right now I tried the number but her number is switched off" explaining the situation the girl proceed
"I'm really afraid can you go there and handle the situation?"
The girl asked showed her puppy eyes
"O-ok where is the office?"
Thinking of him didn't make Anna scared as whenever she has seen him, he was pretty calm and looked normal, assuming the girl is overreacting, she accepts to go there
"Thank you - thank you - thank you, the 3rd floor go and ask anyone"
Thanking while telling her the halfway she ran away
"What!"
Rolling her eyes with annoying written on her face proceed on her way to go to the 3rd floor
"Um excuse me can you tell me the CEO's office?"
Asked a random person who looked like an employee she asked as soon as she got out of the elevator
"Go to the right then left then the second room is where CEO is"
After showing her the way the person left
She looked behind than in front and started walking towards the so-called CEO's room
"This is it"
Standing in front of a big black colored glass door she said to herself as she read "CEO OF HIGH BUILDING" written on the board
Knocking on the door Anna stood outside after 2 minutes a firm voice came from inside
"Come in"
Again rolling her eyes, Anna stepped inside a modern room with white floor gray walls while mostly everything inside was black
"Miss Sarah why did you do that.!"
With a calm voice, he asked nicely thinking of Anna as Sarah while sitting on his desk as his eyes were glued on the desktop of his laptop
"I ASKED WHAT WAS THE REASON"
Getting no reply but silence in reply his
patience broke and he shouted making Anna flinch at his sudden loud voice
"I'm not Sarah!"
In one go Anna utter without wasting any more time
Turning his eyes from his laptop to Anna he tilted his head to the side seeing Anna at Sarah's place
"oh, so it's you! where is Sarah?"
Standing up from his chair he asked about Sarah
"She didn't come today!"
Sounded confident with her words Anna utter
"And you are here to help her?"
Raising his eyebrows as he took a step forward
"Yes"
With a firm voice, Anna proceed
"And how would you do that?"
Saying that he took some more steps forward still with a long distance between both of them with his angry expressions
"I don't know"
Looking straight into his eyes from a distance Anna uttered showing the same anger in her voice
"You should not be here, your anger issues won't help your friend's job!" turning back he utter
"I don't have anger issues!"
making her voice a little louder as she felt attacked personally Anna said
"What! I think you still don't remember me!"
Again turning to Anna he proceeds
"I remember everything,"
Anna said still being angry
"I'm glad" scoffing he utter
"Tell your friend that she is fired!"
Looking at her dark eyes he proceeds
"WHY,"
Anna said once again showing her anger as if she didn't just say she doesn't have anger issues
However, she's also right because those anger issues only come in front of him
while to the rest of the people, she's just cold.
"What do you mean WHY! I'm the boss here and I will decide who will work in my company and who will not!"
With his steady voice while looking in her darken eyes he utter
"Then why didn't you fire me when I insulted you?"
Everything now pissing her off making the temperature more heated, she asked
"... .... Because you didn't know who I was before!" after a moment of pin-drop silence he utter
"And I still don't know you"~
