YASMIN’S POV 4:23pm “In 1 kilometers turn left” “Your destination is on your right” The sun hit my face hard as I stepped out of the car reaching a cute café as the door opened and two girls almost leading my butt on the floor when I staggered “oh sorry” “its okay” Reaching the door again when the opened on my face and my butt kissed the floor hard I looked up just to yell at the person when I got stopped by a tall guy he was drop dead handsome with a bunch of cold drinks with him “Are you blind” His voice hit harder than my butt on the floor “Am I blind?, the worst you could've done was to apologize” “why should I apologize you were in my way” "At least get me up” I stretched my hands forward “No” “Why?, are you passing your aggression towards me??” “ You are blind, don't you see the drinks I'm holding, get yourself up they're ants on the floor” I sprang up as my butt gave me a sting I looked back as he entered his tractor with my ego not feeling satisfied I reached the door of his pickup truck and opened it “You have no idea who you're speaking to in that tone” “Why the f**k do you think I'll care” He closed the door and left almost using his tyre to hit my leg “That asshole” I muttered” 5:00pm “There is our beautiful land we like to call Food basket” The tourist pointed at a land big enough for a city people in the land very far away like ants “Impressive, why would you waste all this land on only food” “We sell some of them as well” “I guess it makes more sense” My eyes caught the same white tractor of that annoyingly handsome guy and my butt started to sting again “This way miss” “As you can see we do have a lot of workers but our majority of workers here are over 40 and we can't make them work too hard you see so if you're saying we have to farm food for the city as well it would be a bit difficult” “Don't they get payed?” The tourist hesitated before he spoke “well yes miss but that's not the iss-” “then they should do what they are payed for” “Of-of course miss” “I'm tired can I get to the first meeting then" "yes miss this way" The meeting was full of old people practically like the elders I sat down at the edge waiting for the meetings to start "whenever you guys are ready" "uhm actually we are waiting for our spokesman he is the one you will be talking to miss" "spokespers-?" The door opened and there he was standing there with that long masculine build of his, he was annoyingly handsome I couldn't even take my eyes off of him "He... He is your boss?" "Yes but don't worry he doesn't bite" The tourist said with a cheeky smile "my name is-" "I don't need to know your name, only why you're here" He said it like he had been in a CEO business before he was so straight forward and cold "hm, I'm here for a request, a request of partnership of your farm land" "as you can see from all the documents our company will provide 70% of the farms need and only the farms need" "we think that If we are basically providing the most it will be okay if we take the most considering that this is just a village and where I come from is a city which has large number of people, I really don't need to explain that to you" Silence filled the air as everyone looked directly at him as he opened the pages of the documents slowly and gave a small corner smirk "you expect them to give you their daily bread because you bring more income" "I mean yes because obviously they need a heavy sponsor on their back basically someone capable and we are capable" "who said they weren't capable?" "your request is more like an overtake and I'm sorry I won't allow that" "but-" "actually I'm not sorry, this feels like a scam" My heart skipped a bit "no it's not really" "I don't need to hear, I think the meeting is done then" That's when I snapped "you didn't even let the elders speak, they have a right to the village as well if they have any suggestions they should speak, you can't speak for all of them!" "I said the meeting is over!" "2 more weeks!" He looked at me confused "give me 2 more weeks and I'll figure something more durable at least, look I know I don't look like someone who needs you guy's help but I do really so just 2 more weeks please!" I was barely able to breathe and gulped hard He looked at me for a while and one of the elders requested on my behalf " 2 weeks and you go back to your castle" I sighed of relief and signaled the tourist to take me to my villa "uh the car doesn't want to start, why don't you-" "leave it we'll just walk" As the hot sun was frying me alive Leo's truck gently stopped beside us and he was back in his farm outfits "do you need a ride sir?" "yes we do thank you" He rushed into his truck "I didn't ask anyone but you sir" "I didn't ask to be in that awful thing either" I rolled my eyes while sweats down my thighs "your f*****g loss" He was leaving, he was actually leaving "wait!" "what do you f*****g want from me?" "beg me" "beg you?, I would rather walk" "suit yourself" "okay wait!" I stepped closer to his side "would you please give me a ride sir?" He looked at me from my chest to my eyes with a cunning smirk on his face, that smirk shifted something in me "ride?" "yes" "hop in"
