Chapter 5[MoreDrama]

Eliora where are you? I need you in my office right now, Good morning daddy; I’m on my way daddy I was caught up in the usual morning traffic I replied over the phone. That’s because you’re too lazy to move you bum I thought you were working out to reduce your excess weight you better not lazy around to become fat, I wouldn’t want the image behind our brand looking like a pack of swollen bread filled with yeast, that’s by the way I need you in my office right now so if you have to fly, then fly or better still if you have disappear then disappear I don’t care I just need you in my office before I unleash the beast in me on you. Yes sir I’m close to the office I’d be there in 10 minutes. The line goes dead without a word. What’s happening? Why the sudden search for me this time I wondered, racing to the office.

Good morning dad how are you doing today? That’s not the reason I called you here, the last pitch your sister made to the investors which you prepared was incomplete and the investors want to pull out because they see us as incompetent, why would you prepare a half hazard pitch for our biggest investor of the year? About that, dad it’s high time I spoke about that issue, why would you have me break my back to prepare a pitch then you forcefully go behind my back to take it from my assistant just to hand it over to your daughter, do you know how much work I put into that pitch, the sleepless nights, the research on the brand the PR and logistics I put into getting all that information together only for you to push me out of it, Shut up young lady you have not answered my question. well I’m sorry dad the pitch with my assistant was incomplete I told her to work on some grey areas so that by morning I would put it all together crossing my T’s and dotting my I’s but you took it and didn’t allow me talk so I simply sat down to watch what the outcome would be and even your favorite daughter whose obviously more intelligent could not figure the errors out, waow, what a genius she is. Enough of your rubbish I have had enough of it, get across to those investors correct the errors and make sure we don’t lose the contract else I would never allow you leave this company or even consent to allowing that good for nothing waiter you call a boy friend come close to you not to talk of allowing him marry you. These words from my father cut through my bones like a knitting blade. Yes sir I replied wiping my tears and packing up my stuff to head out to the investor’s office with a heart in shreds I wondered how I was going to make a pitch in this state of mind as I headed for my car. Who’s calling me at this time, not now I’m not in the right frame of mind to speak with anyone so I don’t let out my frustrations on them. Ma’am the contract you told me to make corrections on is done when would you be coming to pick it up? Speaking of contracts I would send you an address now please get someone to bring it over I’m actually headed there right now. I should meet up with this waiter to give me a shot if whatever to put me in the right mood for work. To the waiter it is then. I said as I drove to the hotel in search of my supposed waiter boy friend.

Sir, Miss. Eliora is here to see you and she doesn’t seem too happy, what’s she doing here this early and how did you know she’s not happy, sir her countenance gave her away, alright hurry get me a white shirt and a bow tie, I need to change immediately and send someone to attend to her I would join he shortly. Please postpone my meeting with the representative from Jack-bone industries until later I have more pressing issues to attend to, tell them we are re-scheduling I’m busy.

Hello my love, how are you doing today? I have told you severally you don’t get to call me that when we are alone; you only get to do that in front of my family. Stop it. I’m sorry ma’am I was only playing my part I thought I saw you dad somewhere around, she hurriedly jumped into my wide stretch arms the moment she heard that, where is he? she replied. Relax I was only joking. It’s not that deep. I should hit you in the face for that she said as I laughed, please have a sit, what brings you here this early, this early? It’s past 11 am and you call it early? I am an early riser. I get up as early as 4 am to hit the gym to keep fit so I no longer fall into the mockery of my step mom and sister about my weight and size and trust me this weight loss journey has taken a serious toll on me. My ex soon to be in-law actually helped me achieve all this. Enough of me how’s work? Well it’s as usually waiting tables and running from place to place making sure that high valued guests like you get pleased and satisfied with our services. Good speaking of customer satisfaction I think I would be in need of that right now. Oooh how do you want it ma’am I can go all day trying to get you satisfied, just say the word and I would perform the magic, I said twerking and rolling my waist in a seductive manner, relax dude that’s not what I mean you need to get your minds off the gutters, you irritate me man, please stop. Sorry ma’am I thought never mind. so tell me what can I do for you today. Ok fine I need something strong to get me in the mood. In the mood for?? s*x or what? Gosh you’re disgusting that’s far from what I was about to say I need something to put me in the right mood so I could be in the right frame of mind to meet with up with an investor whom my sister pitched to some weeks back but couldn’t follow through with it because the investor was angry at the incompetent work done on paper. If your sister pitched to them why are you meeting up with them? Well long story cut short she made a mess of the whole paper work because it wasn’t her pitch I did but she teamed up with my step mom to pressure my dad into stealing my pitch which they did but unfortunately for them the pitch they took was incomplete hence they followed through with an incomplete paper trail, still doesn’t answer my question why are you meeting with the investor? To clear up the mess obviously, and you agreed? Why? My dads threaten never to allow me leave the company or grant me his permission to get married to you of cause the fake couple thing we have going on. Oh I see, that’s very cute of him but the fortune teller in me says that you don’t need a drink to be in the mood because I perceive the client already called off the meeting for today. What a very confused fortune teller you are, she said as she smiled you see real business men like Mr. Daniels the multi-billion Chief Executive whose face is unknown do not play with business he got a wimp of the irregularities in the pitch in less than twenty minutes after they were sent, he doesn’t just cancel meetings he’s a professional business man, my role model and mentor I just pray one day I am able to sit with him for some personal coaching class so I could make a head way in my business too. Waow look at the passion she just expressed in pitching me to me. Sitting right next to me of cause but in her ignorance she doesn’t know and I don’t intend to tell her anytime soon I said to myself in my thoughts. Would you be generous enough to tell me more about this Mr. Daniels I would really like to know him more. Oh shut up he’s a man far above your standards boy, he’s everything any and every woman would kill to have him around in your corner, I just wonder how he looks and how the woman in his life would be. Fine I guess. You guess? So you don’t know your boss. Nope, never seen him once.

Ma’am I have being trying to reach you for a while now Mr. Daniels’ personal assistant called to reschedule the meeting saying he has some personal stuff to attend to and the envelop you order to be sent to you is ready, the dispatch is standing by your car now. My secretary told me over the phone. Shocked as I turned to my waiter hmmm seems like your fortune telling is in lucky today. They just cancelled. See I told you I am the best fortune teller. Put me to the test. Please excuse me I have a package waiting by my car, it’s the contract and your decision has being included in it, if you sign today, you’d be going home with me. I’d be living at yours, waow what a brilliant idea this is, I muttered, I would be back shortly don’t go anywhere. Yes ma’am, I’d be waiting her for you my lady.
