FOUR DAYS OF TEXTS
1293 Words
Rose came to work very early the next morning only to find out that Adien had gone overseas for an emergency impromptu conference.
“Mr Reanon had to leave for an emergency conference overseas, so he couldn’t inform you since he left early this morning. He asked me to inform you if you asked” Mr Corner said to Rose
“What about the current crisis on ground?”
“Mr Reanon said you’re in charge of the project, you can always call him if you face any difficulties, you can also come to me too if you need anything”
“giving such important responsibility to a newbie, isn’t Mr Reanon scared of disappointments?”
“Well if he didn’t trust that you’ll do a good job, he definitely wouldn’t hand such responsibility to you… believe me when I say, Mr Reanon is a very good judge of character”
They both chuckled before Rose replied “of course he is or else how will he be able to run this company single handedly”
“definitely”
“how long will he be gone?” she needed to know if he was going to be gone for long so she can decide whether to tell him before or after he comes back
“it’s a four days trip… so he should be back by weekend”
They both talked about other things before Rose left.
Back in her space, she received a message from an unknown number
Unknown number
“Good Morning”
“Who is this?”
Unknown number
“It’s me Adien”
“Mr Reanon?
How did you get my number?”
Unknown number
“Does it matter?
Besides you’re in charge of the ongoing project,
So I should have your contact”
“That’s true.
Have you landed?”
Unknown number
“Yes. Few hours ago
“Then I should leave Mr Reanon to rest”
Unknown number
“Don’t go.
Can’t we talk a little longer?”
“But I have things to do?”
Unknown number
“That’s not true”
Rose looked around to check for any hidden or open cctv ‘Is he seeing me’
Unknown number
“No need to look around.
I know you’re less busy”
“How did you know”
Unknown number
“You’re funny.
I just guessed”
“so what about the conference.
Mr Corner said it was impromptu,
So you had to leave very early.”
Unknown number
“It’s actually tomorrow”
“Then why did you leave so early?”
Unknown number
“I found out it’s the only flight going today,
So I had to go”
“And just left all the work to me,
I’m not even up to a year old here”
Unknown number
“Don’t be sad, I’m still here right
You can always call me if you have any difficulties.
Besides, I knew you could easily handle it”
“Of course I can,
rest assured everything will be handled before your arrival”.
Unknown number
“Just keep me updated”
“Of course sir”
Unknown number
“Don’t skip meal”
“yes sir”
Unknown number
“Save my number…”
“Yes sir”
Seeing the last message, Rose couldn’t help but laughed softly before keeping her phone to continue what she was doing. After a while, she held a meeting, assigning everyone their roles in the ongoing project, since she was authorized by the CEO to handle the project, everyone coordinated themselves to avoid the wrath of Mr Reanon.
DAY 2
Mr Adien
“Good Morning”
“Good morning sir”
Mr Adien
“Did you sleep well?”
“yes I did. Thanks for asking. You?”
Mr Adien
“Kind of.
Couldn’t sleep well”
“Why?”
Mr Adien
“Forgot to bring my comfort pillow”
Rose burst out laughing making everyone turn to look at her, but she immediately composed herself.
“Aww… that so sad, how will you survive?”
Mr Adien
“I have no idea, I’ll just manage”
“Sorry, next time don’t be in such a hurry”
Mr Adien
“Yes ma.
How’s the assignment going?”
“It’s going as planned don’t worry.
I already discussed with the marketing department on the necessary changes”
Mr Adien
“Good. I knew I could count on you.
You had your breakfast today didn’t you?”
“Yes I did. You?”
Mr Adien
“The hotel’s services are topnotch.
Had a really good breakfast”
“How was the conference?”
Mr Adien
“It’s about to start, I wanted to hear your voice”
“Stop flirting”
Mr Adien
“I’m not. I’ll leave you to continue your day.
Talk later”
“Ok bye”

“Good afternoon Sir”
Mr Adien
“Good afternoon Rose”
“Are you still in the conference?”
Mr Adien
“I’m still at the conference, it's not done yet”
“Then I won't disturb you.”
Mr Adien
“It's fine, Is something wrong?’
“Not really.
I was just excited to tell you the good news”
Mr Adien
“Ok I’m listening”

And the sales has increase”
Mr Adien
“I wish I could see your face right now, you sound excited”
“Why do I feel like you already know all these”
Mr Adien
“Well I saw the news and Corner does a really good job.
But I was still waiting for you to tell me because I could imagine how happy you are”
“Of course I’m happy, everyone is happy”

“I’m making dinner”
Mr Adien
“What are you making?”

Mr Adien
“hmmm… I love pasta, one of my favorites”
“I know”
Mr Adien
“How did you know?”
“Everyone loves pasta right?”
Mr Adien
“Aren’t you in the best position to answer that?
What I do know is not everyone likes everything”
“That’s true”
Mr Adien
“Will I ever get to taste your pasta?”
“In your dreams”
