Chapter 6 - Chapter 6

"What a beautiful lady", that was mostly people's comments and you should know the feelings one get from that.

I entered my office and met my secretary, Glad, as she was arranging my table.

"Good morning ma'am, you look so astonishing and beautiful", she said warmly with a smile.

"Thanks so much", I said smiling.

"Any important documents here?", I asked sitting down on my chair.

"Yes, Mr Edin the Managing director brought in some documents himself and also asked that you should see him as soon as you arrive here", Glad spoke softly.

"Okay, let me go and see him", I said trying to figure out the reason for the sudden invitation.

"Okay ma", she said still doing what she was doing.

I walked out of the office and heeded straight to Edin's office and met the secretary standing there.

"Good morning", I said closing the door after me.

"Secretary please leave us", he said without responding to my greetings.

"Okay Sir", the secretary said leaving the office.

"Morning, how was your night", he finally replied to my greetings.

"It was fine and yours", I said to him.

"It was cool", he said looking at me.

"I wanted to chat with you for sometime that's the reason I called, I know you have been racking your head for the answer", he told me laughing.

"Actually yes I have been, because it's sudden and unlike you, you always call me on phone or message me, so I thought it was urgent", I said also laughing.

"Did Erica later visit?", he asked.

"Yes she did", I said sitting down on the chair in front of me.

"She called me last night saying she will like to have dinner with me, so I thought you guys might have discussed about it", he said waiting for my reply.

"Honestly speaking, she didn't tell me anything like that but maybe it's for fun", I said thinking what the girl is up to.

"Okay, do you want me to go", he asked me.

"If you want to go, you can" I said without looking at him.

"Okay, It was fixed this night, I will leave work early so I can get ready", he said finally.

"Okay, that's good", I said leaving the office.

"Like seriously, he will go, what's that girl up to, let me call her first", I said bringing out my phone from my gown pocket.

"Hey babe, looks like he told you, this one you called me this morning", I heard her voice from the phone.

"What are you up to, Why inviting him over to your house at night", I asked her impatiently.

"Is anything bad, it's only for a dinner nothing more, so don't fear I won't disclose your secret", she said chuckling.

"Better keep your mouth shut because I won't forgive you", I said not smiling.

"Babe calm down, it's just to eat and chat, nothing else", she said.

"I hope so, so how are you doing?", I later asked her.

"I'm fine, no need to ask you because you are finer than me", she said laughing.

"Okay, I will call you later", I said ending the call.

I went back to the office and sat there spaced out, not knowing what to do I picked up my phone and started playing games without going through the documents on my desk.

Before I knew what was happening, it was lunch time. I went out to a restaurant opposite the office to eat and after eating, I went back to the office, and went through some documents until it was the day over.

"Finally, but why am I getting tired nowadays?", I asked myself without an answer.

"Are you ready to go home", I heard a voice from the door.

I turned towards the door and met Edin looking at me sweetly.

"Ahhh, I'm ready, what the occasion today", I said taking my bag.

"Okay, let's go, the car is ready", he said holding my hand.

"But you haven't told me what the occasion is", I said while I couldn't wait to hear the reply.

"Okay, I just wanted you to help pick out clothes for me", he said smiling.

"Like seriously, that's the reason, just because of a dinner", I thought in my mind jealously.

"Oh okay, I see, no problem", I said sadly.

"What's the problem, you sounded down", he said looking at me.

"I'm okay, I'm just a bit tired but it's not serious", I said looking at of the car window.

"You can rest as we get close to the house, lean on my shoulder, okay", he said taking my head and placing it on his shoulder.

"He can be so romantic", I thought inside me.

After placing my head on his shoulder, he patted my back and sang for me to sleep as if I was a little baby and I felt comfortable and loved.

"Why can't we be like this", I asked myself.

"Driver, take the long part, so she can sleep well a little", he said to the driver.

"Okay Sir", the driver replied.

On hearing that, I felt butterflies in my belly, all dancing around in me.

When we arrived at his house, he didn't want to wake me, up so he decided to carry me into his house.

"This view is lovely", I said within me as I noticed that I was been carried out of the car by Edin.

He entered his room and placed me on the bed carefully and went downstairs to order for the chef to prepare something for me.

"Prepare noodles and eggs for two", he ordered the chef.

"Okay I will, Sir", the chef replied.

I was still sleeping when he entered the room but he tapped me.

"Best, we are home now", he said as he was going through his wardrobe.

I tossed around and saw him scattering his clothes around.

"That's okay, let me take it up from here", I said while looking for the perfect clothes for him.

"Thanks, that's why I don't like going for all this kind of dinner stuff", he said feeling exhausted from scattering his clothes.

Finally, I got the perfect clothes which was wine suit and black shoes.

"This is perfect", I said placing the clothes on the bed.

"If I wear this one, gosh, I won't be coming home soon", he said laughing.

"Why don't you try it on, let me check", I said sitting on the bed.

"Okay", he said.
