Emma adjusted her black chiffon shirt before entering the tall building , the air was cold and it's smell was refreshing and deep similar to Mr.Winwood's she thought as she approached the elevator .
She headed towards the elevator aware that her destination lied on the 75th floor just below Mr.Winwood .
The elevator door finally opened revealing another part of Winwood . It was neat and elegant , the marble floor shined as it was just polished few seconds ago . The place had a neat entrance with natural plants placed accordingly next to each other .
Clear offices appeared after some distance , it revealed people that looked indulged in their work .
She walked with her head turning to the sides searching for Mr. Arnold's office . Finally, she finds his name written with bold letters on an ebony door . She knocks and waits for answer .
"Come in " a fainting voice speaks from behind the door
Emma walked in a smile plastered on her face , Mr. Arnold greeted her with a warm smile .
Mr.Arnold was an man in his late forties , he was well-built for a man at that age and had a definitely warm smile
She approached him extending her hand for a handshake .
" You must be Emma kelter " Mr. Arnold speaks
" Yes , I am " Emma talks with pride in her voice
" Mr. Winwood praised you much ..........and your beauty too " he added
Emma blushed slightly even though she was used to these types of compliments .
"Thank you " she mumbles
"So Shall I show you the way to your new office "
Moments later they were inside a large room that sparkled from its tidiness the walls were wine red just her favorite color and the view was breathtaking . The furniture was white and simple yet elegant . The marble floor was too red , shining that she could see her reflection .
Her mouth was wide open and her eyes were sparkling . Everything was just perfect , she wondered if all the offices were just like this . The desk had everything that she needed to work with .
In the middle of the desk there was a black wooden piece that had her name written on with bold golden letters . She glided her hands across the letters sensing the cold material .
"Emma kelter " she whispered feeling proud
"Do you like it ? " Mr.Arnold asked cutting her thoughts
"It's .....Its mesmerizing " she answered smiling
Arnold just smiled back happy to know she liked it at last it was Mr. Winwood's choices that created this masterpiece just for his beauty .
Later that morning , Emma started immediately her work , Mr.Arnold asked her to analyze some financial data and to go through it .
Time went fast and Emma was drowning in work but was aiming to finish it all before the day comes to an end . At last she was able to finish her work and was ready to take them to Mr.Arnold when her phone rang , she picked it up and it's was from her mum . She totally forgot about informing her mum that she got a job. She was worked up from the morning till night that she had no time to even drink or eat anything .
She sighed before answering .
" hello, mum and before you say anything I got a job and now I am workin- " she said before being cut
" I know darling and that's why I called ; to congratulate you " her mom said with happiness clear in her voice .
Emma was confused . She doesn't remember telling her about it .
" wait , who told you mum ? " she asked
"Elisa!!!" her said in the tone " don't be silly "
Emma's mouth formed the shape of an 'o'
"Thank you , mum . It really means a lot to me " she said with gratitude filling her voice
" Oh honey , look at you all grown up . But tell me how are you reaching your work area don't tell me by taxi , young one "
"Mum , It's-"
"No no, Emma , this is is not proper . I'm going to send you a car tomorrow and you will not refuse "
"But- " Emma tried to reason her mom
"Emma imagine your father knowing about it!! , he is going to bury you in your ground"
It was true that Emma was the center of her father's life , he adored because she was his only child and especially a girl . But when she decided to establish her own life away from them , he was broken but happy at the same time because raising a child that wanted to be independent with ambitious dreams was something to be proud of . He always showered her with gifts and pink things , in fact , he always thought of her as his little princess but maybe princesses don't always wear and think pink .
" yeah mum , sure " she said giving up . Later frowning remembering how her father would feel if he knew that his only daughter is living like this .
After exchanging goodbyes , Emma headed to her boss' office to give him her product files but while walking everyone's eyes were glued at her , many admiring her beauty and many other jealous of her confident steps .
Emma knocked the door , entering after being granted the permission .
"Mr. Arnold those are the files you told me to go through this morning " she said handing him some files .
"Thank you , Miss. Kelter " he said while going through the files
Emma stood nervous in front of him , she was eager to know whether she was up to his expectations . Emma bit her bottom lip in nervousness , she didn't show it externally but she was panicking from inside .
Mr.Arnold looked up from his glasses with a bold expression only to smile afterwards at her .
"There are a lot of professional people that I personally supervised before but to be honest this is the most precise and neat work I have ever recieved from someone that just started his work in our company , because our data and numbers get a bit complicated to analyze using computers but I see that we can dispose our computers and use you instead "
Emma smiled at the remark
"That's ....that's ..I am glad ...to hear that " Emma stuttered , didn't find the right words
Mr.Arnold just laughed
It was 11:45 , and she wasn't sure if she would catch a taxi at this time . She gathered her things and left .
She pressed the elevator's button and just when it's doors diverged ,
It was Mr.winwood standing right there...........
