THE NEXT DAY
“Hey!” Waves Richard. Getting totally ignored by Leah. “Are you deaf?” Asked Richard “can’t hear me yelling?”
“Are you blind?” Replied Leah “can’t you see the message on your phone.”
“Oh, so you don’t like getting hanged like that eh?” Chuckles Richard.
“Never mind,” said Leah. And started taking her things out.
“Workaholic,” says Richard,
“Everyone is not as free as you,” says Leah.
“Do you have to bring back all the answers?” Richard complains.
“Well I was just giving my reviews.” Added Leah.
“You see,” says Richard waving back her hairs. “You probably are crazy with the dreams of mine.”
“How do you know I dreamt of you?” Lean turns the chairs around and look up on Richard.
“You see I am pretty famous,” smirked Richard. “Anyways was is wild or....”
“Very wild, I was so hot and you were doing amazing.” Says Leah with a bright smile.
“Oh really who was beneath?” Asks Richard.
“A zebra.” Says Leah
“ZEBRA!” Richard find it so nonsense at listening to this awful answer.
“Honey you tried great but this time you come backs were lame.” Says Richard. “Anyways, you photographs were pretty he whispered and left. Their was a smirk in his face and we went away.
A slight smile came to Leah’s face, which wasn’t in her control. Don’t know if it was out of happiness or she blushed. She just hid the smile looking around to make sure no one notices.
Opening up her bottle she found that there is no water in it. She walks towards the tap where she heard some voice.
“Why not Richard why not?” Lady
“I don’t think it’s necessary to answer to your why’s” Richard.
“I have never asked you for anything, why you doing this to me” she says in a heavy voice as if she was sobbing. Nothing was clear but only the voices Leah heard. “Is it because of the new girl?” Whattttt! Why me, Leah left the corridor in hurry.
“Ok good” said the person recording the voice, “the dialogues were perfect we will record the rest the other day.”
Leah was working all alone and silent, she was confused about whatever was happening. She happens to ask so many people about other new girls who join in. But they were t in the same department as Richard.
Could it be that! He have a crush on me. And her hearts tickle. Her mind devour into the word of Richard his drawing his face and everything she saw in two days. Come out Leah come out she yells at her, “this is not meant to be.” “You are not here for this.” She washes her face.
“Are you tired,” came a voice and Leah turns around. Her face was wet and water went down to her neck and then between. She looked refreshed and her fruit lips were breathing.
“No why.” Said Leah. Richard recharge back from the distraction. “No it’s just I saw you washing the face.”
“Have a good day,” said Leah and left, is something wrong thought Richard. He recaps her face and then suddenly going away. ‘What’s in her mind?” He asks to himself. And turns around watching her leave. Leah....
**knock knock**
“May I come in?” Asked Leah
“Oh yeah welcome.” Said Robert. “Completed the work,” he said while typing. He then takes the file from her hand and checks it out. “Excellent!!” “You really are good at catching things.” “I thought you make the same mistakes but no you are quite amazing.
**bang** came Richard.
“Completed,” he says.
“Well done Richard, you can have the day off” says Robert.
“Leah,” says Richard. “Can I have a look?” Is he really asking me thought Leah, she gave the file to Richard without a word. She was all quite and dint looked up at Richard. She was lost in the talks of the corridor. The new girl p - The new girl -The new girl. ‘The new girl,” she says out loud.
“Exactly,” said Richard patting her head. Leah looked at him and then rushes out. “What’s wrong with her?” Asked Robert.
“How could I know that?” Replied Richard. She is strange but cute, sometimes I feel she is stubborn sometimes she seems like a little baby pig. I couldn’t read your mind Leah what so special, about you that I cannot see? But feel...
