FALLING FOR THE UNEXPECTED
INSERT 10
Lena's pov
I spent the rest of the day working on Ntsika's project, trying to push aside my conflicting feelings. But as I delved deeper into the task, I couldn't shake off the sense that I was getting in over my head.
As I worked, Ntando popped by my desk a few times, asking me questions and making small talk. I tried to play it cool, but inside, I was a mess.
Just when I thought things couldn't get more complicated, Ntsika invited me to a meeting with a potential client. As we sat down in the conference room, I felt a spark of electricity between us.
The meeting went well, and as we walked out of the conference room, Ntsika turned to me and smiled. "You're a natural, Lena," he said, his eyes crinkling at the corners.
I felt my heart skip a beat as I met his gaze. Was I reading too much into this, or was there really something between us?
As I walked back to my desk, I couldn't help but wonder what the future held. Was I going to end up with Ntando, the charming CEO, or Ntsika, the enigmatic founder?
Or was I going to end up with neither, caught in a complicated web of my own making?
