It was already evening when Tara woke up . She saw Laura lying next to her, sleeping soundly. She sat on the bed yawning, stretching out her hands. Practically, she has only been eating and sleeping, no work, nothing.
'Another boring night', her subconscious reminded her. She walked into the bathroom, splashing water on her face. Closing the water tab, she gazed at her reflection. A naughty smile played on her lips as she thought of something. She started making faces, from smiling to laughing, fun to hot fun, all kinds of expressions. She did small cat walk in the washroom, just to make the boredom go away.
"Enough Tara, you are acting like a toddler now", she whispered, looking at her reflection. She stood quiet, looking seriously at herself when a big smile made it's way out. "Who cares dude!", she replied back to herself while dancing in the bathroom without music. Yeah, we girls do that sometimes. We are weird? No. Dude, we are super weird. Sometimes we also don't know why we do these things. But we do, if they are fun. Well, not all girly things, just the ones i like:)
Plus, Tara didn't have a choice, music was out of her reach that time.
After a few minutes, she came out of the washroom. She closed the door and turned, walking towards bed, only to see Dominic sitting on the couch. It would be a lie to say she was not shocked. She was definitely not expecting him there.
Her first thought was, she looked at the bed, to make sure Laura was there. And guess what, she was sleeping soundly in the same position when Tara left.
A sigh of relief left her mouth, which he clearly noticed. Tara moved her gaze from Laura to Dominic who eyes already fixed on her movements.
Their eyes were fixed on each other. After a few seconds, Tara moved her gaze downward. Taking a breath, she looked into his eyes again.
"In my office now", he said, waking up from the couch, walking towards the door while closing the button on his jacket.
Tara followed him silently out of the room.
Inside his office
Tara was again sitting on the same couch. And Dominic was sitting at his desk looking at Tara.
'Why do I always end up here', she asked God more than herself. Everytime she comes inside this office, something unexpected happens, and ends up getting her into more trouble.
"Who are you?", Dominic asked in a very sharp tone. Tara's chain of thoughts comes to a halt, when his words registered in her brain.
"Does he have memory loss problem", she frowned when he asked this question. It's the third time he has asked her in the last 5 days. She wanted to say it out loud. Ah, but who wants to be those birds' food? So she kept this thought in mind.
"I already told you, i am", she started explaining to him, but before she could finish, he cut her sentence, "How did you c***k the password?", her face changed to O-shape, in her brain, when she heard him. She can't show it to him, because she doesn't want any marks on her face if she keeps doing weird things. Her face was calm and blank, which was really hard to keep.
This was not a surprise to her. She was expecting this question.
"I am a software engineer. So I know these kind of things.",she gave a simple explanation .
"How you did it without any tool.", he came straight to point. Before taking them in there phones and all other things were taken away. So how in world she can c***k the password was a question for him.
"I didn't hack something. I just guess the password.", she explained further.
"Say every thing how you did it", he asked in a angry tone. Generally he don't waste so much time asking these questions, his men so it all. But for some reason he wanted to interrogate her by himself.
"I observed the characters which were pressed more and guessed it. First three guesses were wrong fourth one was right.", she explained everything how she did it.
He observed her face to make sure she is telling the truth. What she said was making sense, still something was missing and he was not able to pinpoint it.
"So you can c***k any password like that", he asked her in challenging tone.
Tara feel the warning behind his words. If course she can do it. But it's not like she is ever going to tell him that.
"I already told you it was by luck. I did what I could in that moment and luck was on my side, so I guessed it right.", she said in a convincing tone.
Dominic was sure she is trying to convince him to believe her words. And there is more about her which is not written in those details of her.
"Take her", he commanded the guard and she left the room.
When the door closed he went towards the window, he took out his mobile, to make a call.
"You have a new job", he explained to person on call.
'Lets see what more you have kept hidden',his mind wanderering around same thought.
