Zayn!!

1213 Words
Marilyn couldn't be more than amazed as she stepped into the tall and large building. This was probably the head branch she thought. There were samples of fashion dresses on mannequins as she walked to towards the receptionist desk. Wow. Sample dresses her foot. Those clothes would cost a fortune! Her mother had lent or rather dashed her the office wear she was putting on but wasn't present with her at that moment as she had to take Malia to the hospital. Her ears perked up at the sound of her shoe clicking on the tiles as she was terribly nervous. All through the night, she wondered if Zayn also worked in his father's building right there. Yes! He'd made mention of it the other time when he offered to take her home at the hotel. But what if just if he had his own building somewhere else? Who knew? Rich people and their lives Malia focus! Her mind yelled at her. Which was more important; raising money to go to college and finding love? Of course the first one. GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!! She rolled her eyes and exhaled through her mouth. "Hi.". She said almost breathlessly to the receptionist, putting an arm up on the counter "Hi, good morning. My name is Ashley, welcome to Jemima.". The receptionist said with a smile on her face "Thank you. Um.... I'm Marilyn and I'm here to see Mr Davis" her heart was thundering in her heart for apparently no reason. "Yes." She said as she moved some papers around on her desk "You have an appointment. You see that elevator right there, take it up to the top floor. Good luck" "Thank you." She managed a smile and dislodged herself from the receptionist table moving towards the elevator As soon as she stepped in it, her mind started all on a new thought. Will he even want to see her if he were there at all. Damn, she knew what the answer was. The face he gave her that night had portrayed disgust still surfaced in her mind almost every time. So she knew the answer. She tried to will her heart beat to calm down as she stared at the buttons that shone as she neared the top floor. She wanted to cry and pull her hair over feeling stupid. Was it more than just a common man? At last, the elevator dinged, stopped and opened up. The first thing she saw as she stepped out was the empty chair and desk that laid in the corner of the room. So, that was where she was going to stay. A vending machine stood beside it, surprised, she moved towards it to get a closer look. And everything inside was apparently for free. She beamed at that. She already loved the job. She moved closer to the desk where a computer stood on. The desk empty except from the electronic. She ran her fingers over the quality wood and moved closer to it. Something tempting her to seat in the chair and test how comfy it was and she did. Mine, her bum hadn't enjoyed such pleasure and comfort before. She swirled about in the chair excitedly swinging her feet in the air. She collapsed into it when she started to feel dizzy and smiled to herself. She was never leaving the job. Ever She then pretended to type on the black keyboard that looked new as there were no scratch or any sign of it being used. "Wow" she muttered to herself. Just when she proceeded to stand up from the seat and get to facing her biggest fear, she heard a door open somewhere and practically flew up from the seat adjusting herself unnecessarily She kept her hands behind her back as she saw him emerge. Her heart started race and she flushed in utter embarrassment of him seeing and catching her frolicking around in her to be office already. "Morning Miss Assman" His thick voice seemed to cloud the whole room and she tried not to shake even though there was a smile on his face "Good morning Mr Davis" She said almost under her breath "I thought I heard you come in. This way please" he motioned her towards his office and she walked towards the direction head bowed. She waited for him to open the door when he came around. She wasn't sure in what and which politeness she should exhibit. The way her heel clicked on the floor made her more nervous as she walked into the office. Even in the embarrassed and scared state she was in, she couldn't help but marvel at the sight of his office. Words couldn't describe how it was but it looked CEO like. She wondered how much money was put into it. In all awe and wonder, she almost sat in the chair but her head saved her and she regained her composure scratching the back of her head nervously. "Sit please." She noticed the smile on his face as he said that and felt more stupid. He probably thought she was very unprofessional already which she was, uncoordinated, and everything that started with 'un'. She bowed her head and tried to concentrate on picking at her fingers. "I hear you were supposed to be in college by September" "Yes sir" she bit her lip. She felt the question was so embarrassing that she felt like covering her face in shame but she didn't "What were you hoping to study?" He said as he drew a pen and a note book from a pile of files to his front. "Nursing" she said in a small voice and quickly added " sir " "Wow. I'm sure you'd make a great nurse." "Thank you sir" If only Zayn could be as nice as his father was. She thought but then, if she was in his shoes, she'd surely get angry that she'd lied about her age in the first place. And it made her wonder how old he even was. "So, I've looked through your CV. Your school certificate I mean, and you're qualified for the job. Congratulations" He smiled at her, putting a firm hand out for her to take. And she did happily "Thank you sir" Was this how it worked? So easy and quick? Wow. She thought as she flipped her gaze to computer on his desk where she saw the footage of her impending office. Her breath caught in her throat as she tried to breathe. He'd seen all her escapades checking the office out like an alien. She felt like crying at her own embarrassment. That was so unprofessional! How dare he have a footage of her office at the comfort of his? That was intrusion of privacy! At that moment she thought of reconsidering her application. "Okay so... You're free to resume work today and right now of you want otherwise start tomorrow" "No it's no problem, I'll start right away" She mumbled partially annoyed "Welcome by the way" "Thank you sir." She said again and proceeded to the door walking in small steps. But as soon as she neared it, the door barged open before she even got to it revealing her current archenemy, Zayn!!!
