Clarissa's POV I had a short nap and hurried to Damien's house to prepare his lunch. I met Jordan's mom. "Miss Jordan?" She looked at me with her head c****d to the side as if waiting for me to continue. She was currently going through the bar at the side of the sitting room probably taking note of the wines needed to be restocked.I guess Mr Damien likes wine because what I'm seeing here is a large collection. Jordan was here earlier looking for you." "Oh..she laughed, that silly boy.I went to visit an old friend that just gave birth down the road.I didn't know Jordan would be back today and my battery's is flat." "...but I think you should reach him cause he sounded really desperate to see you." Her face looked panicked. "Really? is he okay?" She stopped cleaning a wine bottle and settled on a sofa. I nodded my head at her. "Physically, he is but I don't know anything further than that. I could borrow you my phone so you could use call him." She looked surprised. "I will like that very much.Thank you." I brought my phone out of my small bag and gave it to her."I'm just going to head to the kitchen." She looked confused. "Why?" I rolled my eyes. "Apparently,our boss decided I cooked him lunch and take it to the central town's hospital." "Oh....Her face took on a Faraway expression. He stresses himself too much. Quickly go and prepare it. I will bring your phone when I'm through with it." She shooed me away. After preparing his lunch. I packed it up. I collected my phone from Miss Jordan and come to think of it I heard snippets of the conversation miss Jordan had with her son. They were arguing. I wonder what could the problem be. I only heard... baby....abort .....work.....I wasn't quite sure of whatever they were talking about. The ride to the central hospital was smooth.I have been waiting in the lounge area for about 30 minutes because the receptionist could not get a hold of miss Damien to confirm my appointment. I will wonder if he worked here. He's a self made billionaire.Why would he need to be a doctor? Anyway, it's none of my business. After signalling me that I'm free to go. I made my way to the elevator and pressed on the top floor according to the instructions of the receptionist. Such a large,fancy hospital but I've never liked the smell of hospitals. A sharp pain passed through my lower abdomen.I held my stomach and frowned.What the hell is wrong with me. Just this morning I felt the same pain?I shrugged it off and made my way to Damien's office. The office itself was colourfully bright. I never expected a brooding man such as Mr Damien have such a office. It was large with floor to ceiling window overlooking the city beyond. There was a massive desk and comfy sofas situated at the sides of the office. The office was surprisingly empty. Where the hell is he? "Mr Damien?"I called out but received no answer. "Mr Damien,"I called out a little bit louder. "I thought I told you it's just Damien." I almost stumbled on my own feet at the sound of his gruffy voice. Where the hell did he come from. I turned back and saw him standing in front of what I presume to be another linked room in this damned large office. He looked tired and unkempt.Something I've never seen on him before. His dark hair was rough, his tie was hanging loosely on his chest. His cufflinks was no where to be found. In all he looked disorganised but still disturbingly sexy. I squeaked. "I'm sorry. I thought you would want me to call you Mr Damien in professional and public environment." He chuckled and made way to seat on his chair behind his desk. "But it's only the two of us here?" I looked at him sheepishly. Dammit!! I had forgotten that. He just shook his head. "It's okay. Just bring the food here. I'm famished." "Right." I dropped the flask at his table and stood there awkwardly while he opened it. When he noticed me still standing he gestured to the sofa. I quickly sat down cause my legs were already paining me. I don't know what prompted me to wear high heels. I guess it's because I always felt more short than normal in his presence. He proceed to eat the food and I watched awkwardly trying to ascertain if he liked it but he just continued to eat with no expression . "You know it's rude to stare." I blushed. "I wouldn't stare if I wasn't worrrying that you didn't like it." He shrugged. "It's good." That's just it. It's good. "Yh...what more do you what me to say?" It was when he answered that I realised that I said my thought aloud. Sometimes my mouth worked faster than my brain. From there on we fell into an uncomfortable silence until I felt that pain again. I held my midriff and doubled over. He looked over at me panicky. "What's wrong?" I don't know. My stomach's been acting funny. "Where exactly are you feeling the pain?" "My midri...before I could complete that statement my mouth clamped shut cause I could feel something sticky like liquid flow out of me soaking my panties. I looked down in horror.How could I have been so stupid to have not noticed the signs? Why did it have to come now? Oh God!!! "Your what?" I looked at him again. "Hmmmm....Damien?" Yes...he looked confused. By now,he had finished the food and packed it. "Can I use your restroom?" "You're free to." I stood up and tried to hide my backside from him as much as possible. I'm about to die from embarrassment. He looked at me confused trying to gauge my actions. "Are you okay?" "Yh...yh..." When I reached the room he had earlier come out from, I wanted to run in but his voice stopped me. "The confectionary is not there. It's over here." He pointed to the door at the end of the room close to the main door. I almost screamed. Why the hell would he not put a toilet in a restroom?? He noticed my expression and raised his hands up."Don't blame me. I didn't design my own office anyway." I felt guilty for targeting my glare at him. But my main concern is how he would definitely know if I turn around. I decide to risk it anyway. Just few steps to the door, his voice stopped me again. This is it. *Is that blood?" Curse the fact that I'm wearing a yellow sun dress. I heard him stand up and make his way over to me I turned around not quite looking him in his eyes. "Are you okay?" He sounded concerned. I decided not to put him in the dark for too long. "It's my time of the month." I looked at him then he looked confused at first but the realization slowly washed over him. Then the most shocking thing happened. I had to cut the chapter here. Also my hands are tired for typing too long on my phone. Anyways, how are you loves? Long time right? It's not been easy. Don't forget to vote,comment,like and follow me. I love you'll. Mwahhhhh. Quote of the day: Success is combination of hard work and determination.
