Deja Vu

Chapter Three

About four cars were seen going into a magnificent mansion. The entourage came down from the vehicle to open their boss' door. The foot of a fair lady was seen coming out of the vehicle, as she stepped out elegance and air of confidence around smells nothing but money and elegance. This was no other person but the only daughter of Senator William, Patricia. Her face holds a deep expression of anger as she step out of the vehicle, it's really evident that her husband Terry, the other person in the vehicle, had again mentioned what she always avoided in their three years of marriage, which is why she is yet to have issues and why she had constantly avoided visiting a professional gynecologist with him.

Her response to his confrontations has always been same, which is "if you're really in need of a child that much, you can get from someone else because I can't create a child myself."

Her reply has always baffled him seeing she is lovable and caring but changes immediately the issue of pregnancy is mentioned. Her reasons for not been pregnant still remain unknown and he had always ensured to keep family members away from his family issues. His inability to relate his family issues to others are drowning him, but sincerely, he is still contemplating telling his father in law, maybe her father can help set her straight.

He walked dejectedly into the sitting room and saw Patricia barking out orders at the helps, this is one act he had gotten used to as it her way of showing her displeasure whenever they have their constant tussle. The helps will always pray against their fight to prevent Patricia's annoying nagging.

Since she was not ready to listen or even allow them reach a compromise, he finally decide to let it be even as her insistence on not having a child with him rattles him.

His night rest was extremely discomforting that he constantly wished for dawn. When he could take it no more, he stood up and walked lazily to the mini bar to pour himself some shots of vodka. After over an hour of pondering over issues he fell asleep.

He woke up a bit late than usual then got ready for work. He left the house lazily, that even his driver noticed his withdrawn countenance, he had no option but ask if all was alright with as all about him seem off this morning. He just reply that he was okay, his driver not wanting to push further chose to remain silent.

Zara stepped down from her taxi in front of a magnificent realtor company, with Prudence Realtors boldly written on the building. She had been looking for a way to help her father's realtor company survive the present test of time, going from one realtor company to the other but all kept telling her they will get back to her. She came hoping there might be a positive result from this company she is entering though fear of the outcome she will be getting from this company again was ripping off heart, she still choose to press on with her quest for the survival of her father's company. She would have gone back if not for her appointment with the C.E.O. So she stepped into the company told the receptionist that she has an appointment with the C.E.O, after the formalities of confirming the appointment, the receptionist directed her to the the elevator that will take her to the 8th floor where the boss's secretary stays.

When he came down from his car, he was so carried away with his thought that he did not know that he entered the public elevator. On the next floor, the elevator stopped to pick someone, then a beautiful lady stepped in, though he was a shocked it was the least of his worries until he saw how nervous she was looking. She looked like a confident young lady but her hands and feet were uncontrollable as it shakes at will. Seeing how nervous she was, he decided to step in. " Good morning young lady," he started

"Good morning sir" she replied.

"Sorry to ask, is anything the problem"

Trying to keep up the confidence she is storing for the meeting with the C.E.O she replied no.

" But your hands and feet seem to be shaking at will, a you catching a cold or do you need to see a doctor." He replied with deep concern in his voice.

Seeing that he had seen through her she politely rejected his offer for a doctor.

Since she is just nervous he decided to help her calm before they reach the 9th floor where his office is.

"Am Terry, and you are?" He introduced

"Pardon my manners, am Zara and thanks for your concern, I really appreciate it" she said as the shook hands.

Her hand looked too small in Terry's huge hands. Something about her draws him to her but he chose to ignore as he felt he was just simply concerned about a fellow colleague at work.

She stopped on the 8th floor thanking him with a sincere smile on her face. He waved her goodbye as she left, his eyes kept following her tiny frame body that look like it will break any moment. He just seem to notice that the gown she was putting on though not too revealing, revealed her tiny legs from her knee downward. A smile crept up his face as the elevator starts moving up.

Zara got into the secretary's office and was asked to sit while she call the C.E.O's assistant maybe he is around. After calling the assistant, she asked Zara to wait for a few minutes as the C.E.O just stepped into his office at the moment.
