1235 Words
Today was a special day, it wasn't just like the other days. Today's morning was new, it wasn't like the mornings of around the last two years.....
Though her day started with the sight of Ted, with adoring him for the cute li'l baby he is, with looking into his blue eyes and of course, with memories of Christian flooding back to her mind again, but still,
Today's agenda was different,
Today she had decided that she'll no more be wandering around the streets in his search...
Today she will forget all her sour memories of the past...
Now she'll only cherish the days she'd spent with him...
Now she'll only concentrate on her future and on her baby boy, Ted, the only reason who had kept her sane for all this time, if it wasn't for him, god knows in what condition Anastasia would have been today. :)
She started her day normally with getting Ted ready, feeding him with his all time favourite Cerlac but, Today the difference was in how she had chosen to look, to present herself to the world....

Anastasia, wearing a sleek grey pencil skirt which she elegantly carried with a simple white blouse, was waiting in the reception area to be called for interview... Filled with nervousness she was sitting on the bench thinking of her first and the only interview which was with Christian as a replacement of her roommate Kate, when she suddenly got startled by a tap on her shoulder, "Ms. Steele?"
"Yes, it's me, You must be Ms. Vermont"
"No, but I am here to escort you to her, she'll be the one who's gonna interview you for the position of Mr. Hyde's Personal Assistant" Anastasia was completely shocked as she had no idea that she may become the PA to Jack Hyde, one of the hot shot bachelors in the town who was well known for having build his own name in the industry just as Her Christian had...
.
Ms. Vermont was truely impressed by her and asked her to join from the very next day....
"I love you, i love you, I love you soo much Kate, I can't thank you enough for whatever you have done for me, but for what you have done today, oh my godddd......"
"Just tell me you got the job Ana....say it, say it fast"
"Yes yes I did, yes I did get the job" she said cutting her in full excitement...
She picked Ted from Kate's place and all of them went to celebrate.
Though it was a great day for Anastasia but it was an even better one for Kate and Ted who hadn't witnessed Ana this happy in these years....
Now that she had decided to lead her life to a new path, she woke up with full enthusiasm, quickly got dressed and made all the necessary arrangements of Ted.
On her way towards the colossal building of SIP she dropped her small li'l child to the day care which was her neighbors'.
Knocking the door she asked, "Mr. Hyde? May I have the permission to take a few minutes of your busy day and come in? "
"Yes sure, Welcome, Ms. Steele"
As soon as she opened the door, she stumbled upon her own leg fell down....
""Ouchh!!" He chuckled, realising very well about how nervous she would be.
"I am extremely sorry for being so clumsy" she was drowned in embarrassment.
Jack hurried to the girl who had fallen with her hands and knees on the floor. Clasping her slim shoulders, he reached to help her to her feet. As soon as her eyes met is gaze she slipped into a different world all together, a world full of Christian's memories....
Christian, when he looked into her eyes for the very first time which was her first day at the job, he was completely lost in them.
Anastasia too was not able to break her contact with his eyes. They were the most extraordinary color, powder blue, and guileless, and for one awful moment, she thought he could see right through her and she left...exposed.
Christian also was continuously starring at her small, sweet face that was blushing now, an innocent pale rose. She was quite attractive—slight, pale, with a mane of dark hair barely contained by a hair tie. A brunette.
"Miss Steele. I'm Christian Grey. Are you all right? Would you like to sit?" he said trying to dismiss her luscious thought from his mind...
He extended his hand as she stutters the beginning of a mortified apology and places her hand in his. Her skin was cool and soft, but her handshake surprisingly firm.
The sound of his voice was like a melancholy to her ears.
BOTH HAD FALLEN FOR EACH OTHER AT THE FIRST SIGHT....
She blinked her eyes erratically, long lashes fluttering. She took his hand to help her up. Her touch was electrifying.
Unable to keep the amusement from his voice as Jack recalled her less-than-elegant entrance into his office, he asked her about her qualifications. While she was answering, he paid no attention it, rather he was just busy studying her, he noticed her every breath, every gesture, her every bit.
She looked nervously around his office—everywhere but at him, he noted, with amused irony. He asked her to sit, then noticed her discerning gaze appraising his office paintings. Before he could stop himself, he found he was explaining them. "A local artist. M. Dansk."
"They're lovely. Raising the ordinary to extraordinary"', she said dreamily, lost in the exquisite, fine artistry of Dansk's work. Her profile, delicate—an upturned nose, soft, full lips—and in her words she had captured his sentiments exactly, Raising the ordinary to extraordinary.
It was a keen observation, Ms. Anastasia was bright, he said to himself.
He watched her, fascinated, as that flush crept slowly over her skin once more. As he sat down opposite to her, He tried to bridle his thoughts. "Get yourself comfortable and we'll start with your briefing as soon as you're done. "
She peeked up at him and bit down on her bottom lip. f**k! How did I not notice how inviting that mouth is? he thought.
Anastasia knew that her look was ravishing, in an A-line brown skirt paired with an off-white shirt, and utilitarian boots, she looked perfect.
.

.
For the one complete hour of conversation, which included small talks about their families, only Jack knew how he had kept himself from throwing himself on her.
When Anastasia finally got up and excused herself, he gave her a lascivious wink... She clearly understood his indications but didn't show even an iota of interest in him.
Though she had decided to move on in her life but not in this area. Christian was her one and only, she couldn't let go of such a major part of her life and get over with just like that. Still she was adamant on not let going Christian. He held her heart and she hoped that she held is too.....
