"Hi, baby How are you?"
"I'm fine"
"Noora can you take care of her? I have to go for some groceries!"
"Noora?"
Noora who just came she asked Maria in her sweet voice, but when Anna asked her for help she didn't dare to answer, was she angry on something?
"Why are you sulking now?"
"Ask your own self!"
Anna rolled her eyes in annoyance, she was already getting late and there her friend was creating an issue as soon as she stepped in
"What did I do?"
"Huh?!"
Anna utters again, she can't understand the reason behind her friend's sulking face, Noora looked back raising one eyebrow, she looked at Anna with a questionable look on her face.
"What did you do?"
"Do you really think that asking this would help you or me in any way? no right! so there is no point in doing such a thing"
Anna spoke in a serious tone, Noora was speechless at how straightforward Anna is, Noora opens her mouth to say something but shut it again, after listening to what Anna said there is really not anything to utter anymore,
Noora plopped herself down on the couch, she couldn't do anything but accept her defeat, while the little girl who was also sitting there was looking at them, both friends were having their little argument, Anna turned around and led her way out of her apartment.
===========
"I don't know why our boss hates me so much! like what did I even do?"
Daniel who was talking nonstop, eyes were glued on his laptop desktop while his mouth chattering,
Anna leaning back her head rested back on her chair looking like a dead body, she was not able to do anything, his utterance was enough to make her ears bleed,
While Daniel was exhausted from doing all that work which Zain gave him,
was that some kind of revenge from Zain's side?
As soon as Daniel walked in he got this shocked that his boss has given him almost all the old files to check and do some edit in them, Daniel was working since morning and now it was almost evening,
This was the first day Anna couldn't complete her work, she was just sitting quietly listening to Daniel's complaints about their boss
*Why he doesn't you Anna this much work
What is his problem with me!
What did I even do to have this
I should just leave this job
But I can't do that!*
And much more
Their shift has already finished but they were still working, Daniel who had to complete all the work Zain gave him, and Anna who was trying to do her work
"Are you done?"
A manly voice came making Anna and Daniel look up at their boss
Zain Jung who was standing right in front of Daniel's desk, he didn't put on any glare towards Anna as if he doesn't even recognize her, while Anna was unbothered she finally was able to focus when Zain came in, as Daniel was now quite as he was never,
"Sir there is some work still pending if you want-
"Why is there still some work left? I've sent all these files since morning, it should have been done by now!"
Zain utters with a firm voice, Daniel stood up and look down being embarrassed, there wasn't any age difference but the places they were standing on were so different from each other
"Sorry, sir! if you want I will compete for this by night!"
"That's not an excuse you should have done it by now, why do I pay you? to sit and gossip?!"
Anna who just started to focus on her work after Daniel shut his mouth she once again got disturbed by the voice of her boss, she looked up at them with her sharp eyes, she didn't want to aster anything between someone else's matter, hearing Zain she wasn't so pleased with his words, he was making Daniel feel guilty for an unnecessary thing, Zain's words were putting him down
"It wasn't even his work! You gave him this overwork"
Anna, she doesn't know where did she get that confidence to utter this
she spoke before turning her eyes from the laptop screen to them
Daniel's jaw was dropping down on the ground after hearing what he just heard he was shocked at how come this girl who doesn't speak a word when he tries to talk to her and now she was that straightforward in front of the CEO of this company,
doesn't she loves her job?
does she want to get fired?
Meanwhile, Zain also turned his face as his gaze landed on the sitting Anna her aura was as icy as forever, he was also surprised to hear her, he didn't expect that she would say something in between, but as always she proved him wrong and did something that he can't expect from her, Zain tilts his head and
and spoke with his raised eyebrows
"Huh?"
"He already told you that he would complete all the files by night then why are you making it a big deal!"
Anna was talking as if he was her stupid friend who doesn't know anything,
she stood up from where she was seated and spoke, her voice was cold as usual and the seriousness on her face was pretty defined as if she was giving him a life lesson
"Fine you can help him as you are also here to give him a company right!"
"I want all the files in my cabin within one hour!" ~
