THE POWER OF LOVE

the office

Ariana's pov

I wonder why he want me to come meet him up at his office. is it about the clothes I am wearing. I stood there contaplating wether to knock on his office door or run away. He has been acting wired lately which I couldn't understand why. I knock slightly on the door, come in, he says, in his deep voice. i went in he was standing with his hands crossed on his back. his brows furrowed, he was pacing back and forth.

Deos he even realize I have be standing here for more than five minutes. Mr Alexander I called out to him, he look up at me with a puzzled look on his face, I couldn't read his face. Don't you like the clothes that are in your closet, he says with gritted teeth, trying to control his anger. Off course I-i do I like them, I stutter. Then why didn't you wear them, He says. Is he being serious, this cloth that I am wearing is part of it.

Then why did you choose to wear those, he question's. I wore it because I love comfortable clothing's. He study's me for a while as if thinking of what to say next. before letting out a deep sigh.

Don't wear those anymore he says pointing at the clothes I am wearing. Ok as you wish Mr Alexander, I say with sarcasm, bowing. your wish is my command, He raised an eyebrow at me puzzled.

But deep down I know I wore this to attract less attention, with the way Andrew was staring at me yersterday. I thought this style of clothing will keep him off the radar.

Be ready tomorrow, by seven, we will be going to the office. you will start your job as my new assistant.

Thank you Mr Alexander. I say. walking out of the office.

The next morning I woke up by five, I got ready, I wore a black pencil skirt and a blue shirt. I went downstairs where I saw him ready in his black suit and shiny shoes, he looks so handsome.

Good morning Mr Alexander, I great. Why the sudden formality. He asked with his usual blank face. Well you are going to be my boss soon.

That not necessary when we are home. you can only call me that when we are in the office only, okay. he says raising an eye bro. Ok I nodded like a child being lectured by her dad.

We got to Alexandra cooperation it was a sky raise building, I am guessing it will have like fifty floors or more. We got out of the car. We where walking towards the huge glass door. Me holding my pen and notepad. When I felt light flashs, i look around to see. alot of camera men and women were busy taking pictures of us.

Well who could this guy be that he has the paparazzi's following him up like Kim Kardashian.

Mr Alexander is that your new assistant. one of them asks. what happened to your former assistant, Another asks. Mr Alexander can we have a word with you, they kept asking questions, they were blocking our way to the entrance. Suddenly I saw huge giant men dressed in black suites and black sunglasses. Came to us and start guiding us through the door, what took you guys so long he says to them with gritted teeth. Sorry sir we had a flat tire on our way here.

Good morning Mr Alexander, good morning Miss. the doorman great's, morning i reply to him with a smile. We walk to the elevator. It lead us to the top floor. we stepped out of the elevator, we were greated by his secretary.

Olivia this is Ariana Brian my new assistant, Ariana this is Olivia Smith my secretary. Nice to meet you, Olivia says.nice to meet you too ariana, she says with a smile. Olivia lead her to her office, he says and walk towards a giant brown wooden door. Olivia lead me towards a brown wooden door which was smaller than his.

Welcome to your new office ariana, she says while opening the door to the office I stepped insinde in awe. if you need anything call me, she says with a smile, yes sure thank you. I say to her, she closed the door behind her. I was left dazed by the beauty of my office, it was painted in the deepest shade of blue, the desk were cream same as the couch. I walk to my desk and sat down admiring my new office. A week ago if someone tell me that I will be here I will call them crazy. I placed the picture of me and my dad on the table.

Tears start to fall down freely. Dad I hope you are proud of me. I miss you dad so so very much. I remembered mom and Lolita, I hope they are fine. Dad who are my real parents why didn't you leave me with any clues. I miss you dad I wish you were still here. You are all I have and all I have ever had known, I don't care if you are not my real dad I love you very much dad, I hugged the picture frame tightly, sobbing on it. until I heard I soft Knock on the door. I quickly clean my face and blow my nose with a disposable tissue.

Come in. Olivia came in, it time for lunch do you mind going for lunch with me, she says smiling. And why would I mind let go. I say standing up. I didn't even realize I have spent so much time crying. We walk out of my office and made our way out towards the elevator.

Olivia where are you taking her, his deep voice, called. um.. I am just taking her to the cafeteria. to get some lunch, Olivia stutter. Ok take care of her, he says. I glare at him, I am not a child, why is he treating me like a baby. I can take care of myself, I say glaring at him, he just smirked at me and left.

Ariana I think the boss likes you. did you see the way he looks at you he doesn't look at anybody else like that, Olivia says giggling. I rolled my eyes at her, that not it Olivia, then what is, she asks, and when I said nothing. She starts squiling. It nothing. Ok how did you guys meet, it a long story Olivia, I will tell you when the time is right.
