"My name is Scarlet Sir" I retorted
"Scarlet, is that what you want me to call you?" he asked
"Yes Sir"
" Drop the formalities. Call me by my name"
"Excuse me?"
"My name is Dylan, Scarlet"
"You're my boss not my friend, it's better if we keep it that way"
"Huh?"
"Lunch is almost over Sir"
"So what do I do to become your friend?" he asked with an ever so serious expression. He completely ignored my last sentence and left me speechless.
"Helloooooo, earth to Scarlet Ferguson" he said as he waved his hand in front of me. I snapped I asked to use the restroom.
Who the hell does this man think he is! I was soo furious. There were soo many questions running through my mind.....why....
I went back into the room to see that lunch had been served. They were soo many dishes to try....soo many. Dylan looked over to me and smiled. Well that's the first time I've seen him smile....we ate in silence.
"You didn't answer my question" he said all of a sudden.
"Which question?" I replied unconsciously
"How can I become your friend?"
"Let me be" I replied shortly
"Huh? ok listen princess I'm trying my possible best to be patient with you so stop beating around the bush ohk?"
I ignored him and got up.....but before I could move he pulled me towards himself and kissed me, but this time I reacted very quickly and pushed him away when our lips touched.
"Scarlet...." he said in a deep hoarse voice.
"Lunch time is over" I said shortly and left the room. I waited for him at the parking area. Waiting for him I saw a familiar face and body structure walking with Dylan towards me. It was my dad!!!!!
What in the world was happening?!
I froze and just stared at the two men approaching me.
"Scarlet?" said my dad
"D-dad?" I stammered
Dylan was just smiling devilishly behind my dad...how annoying.
"What are you doing here?" my dad and I asked ourselves in unison.
"Scarlet works as my secretary Sir" Dylan replied unasked.
"But you didn't tell me that you wanted to work" dad said
"Mom said I could if I wanted to"
"But the outside world is dangerous darling"
"Then how will I learn to coupe with the world if I don't experience life?"
"There's our family business, our real estates, restaurants and lots of businesses that you could CEO"
" Is that all you know? money? have you ever thought of spending time with your family, mom and I ?"
"Scarlet, can we talk about this later?"
" No! I'm done with you and your selfish acts! all you ever care about is money, money, money, money!"
"But I provided you with everything you needed all these years"
"Money doesn't buy the love of a father....every single day you would act as if mother is a good for nothing! she carried your baby, me! and you still cheat on her.....you disgusting old man!" I said, tears streaming down my face
"Don't be ungrateful Scarlet! after everything I've done for you and that woman this is how you repay me?! That woman was nothing but a nasty old hag!"
"How dare you call my mother a nasty old hag!"
"Scarlet Ferguson!...."
"Sir that's enough!"
