Alexandria felt kind of guilty about what she did. She knew she had gone too far by breaking his windscreen but it was his fault.
He called her foolish for crying out loud, she couldn't contain her anger so she smashed his windscreen. He was a very rude man.'But a handsome one,' her inner mind stated. She couldn't believe she just thought that."Shut up," she said smacking her face lightly. She could feel the redness and hotness of her face. She knew she looked like a tomato right now.She couldn't help but feel guilty for what she did to his car but it was his fault for calling her talkative."It's his fault..," she mumbled as she got in the car.She checked the time on her phone and she couldn't help but feel angry again. It was already noon, she couldn't believe they had argued till noon and now she was late for work."Asshole..he made me late for work," she groaned as she continued to drive. She couldn't go back home because her boss would kill her with complaints. She was already fed up with working with him but she needed her job, she couldn't afford to lose her job at least not now that Stacy was not working.She pulled into the parking lot and parked her car in her usual spot. She picked up her bag and got out of the car."Good afternoon, Mr. Salvador," she greeted the old guard whom she had grown quite fond of. Mr. Salvador was one of the people who didn't make her feel bored whenever she was at work. She would sometimes have lunch with him during lunch break and that was when her creepy boss wasn't around."Good afternoon Andria," Mr. Salvador answered. He was quite fond of calling her 'Andria', he never wanted to call her 'Alex' or 'Alexa', so he called her 'Andria' instead."You're late, your boss is gonna vent out all of his anger on you, Andria," the old man warned in a whisper. The old man was also afraid of Peter Petrakis, her boss."Yeah, I know, an idiot made me late," she mumbled looking away from the old man."Uh...what do you mean?" the old man asked her, his black her looked at her with curiosity."Uh....nothing, Mr. Salvador...I better go before Mr. Petrakis killed him," she said and the man nodded.She went into the big building and she saw everyone rushing. She almost bumped into someone and the person didn't even bother to say sorry."What the hell is going on?" she asked herself. She shrugged her shoulders and went towards the managing department, the elevator wasn't working so she used the stairs.She eventually got there and she walked towards a door.'Managing Director "Peter Petrakis" ', the tag on the door said.'It's time to face Mr. Creepy,' she sighed inwardly. Taking a deep breath, she opened the door to find Mr. Petrakis on the phone."Hello sir, I'm so sorry.....I'll ta..ke care of iii..it sir," he stuttered.'Oh my ....the tables have turned,' she grinned inwardly as she folded her arms. She had never seen her boss shaking and stuttering before. He looked very pale like he was being threatened over the phone.She stifled a laugh when she saw him. He looked like he had just drunk a glass of vinegar because of the sour expression on his face."Okay,s...it, I'll make sure it gets done, I'm so sorry sir," he said to the person on the other line.Alexandria wanted to applaud the person on the other line for making her Almighty boss like this. She was told no one could make her boss feel like this except the big boss, the CEO of Cross Investment Company but she had never seen him.'Could it be him?' she asked inwardly."Miss Akins, I think you need to go to explain a lot of things," her boss's cold voice snapped her out of her thoughts."I'm so sorry, sir, I had a flat tire," she lied.'Oh God, if you can hear me, please save me from this man,' she begged inwardly, she wasn't ready to lose her job."How is that any of my business?!," Mr. Petrakis yelled at her. Alexandria flinched when she heard his scream.'Fool.....I'm gonna break your head if you yell at me again,' she threatened him inwardly.If she had the chance, she would have put chilly in his coffee a long time ago but she couldn't because he was her boss, an irritating man."I'm sorry sir," she said in a whisper but she wanted to punch him."You know, I gave you a very good offer but you refused my generosity," he said looking at her with his mischievous and wicked green eyes.She suddenly felt disgusted, he had once asked her to steal files from the vice president's office and she refused, that was why he treated her like dirt.'How dare he bring up that matter again?' she growled inwardly."You could be making millions if you did what I asked you to," he said again.This man was getting on her nerves but she quickly quenched her anger, she knew he was just waiting for her to make a mistake so he could get rid of her."I'm sorry for coming late to work but that doesn't change my decision," she said in a harsh tone."Too bad, you would've earned a lot," he said shaking his head."Excuse me, sir, I would like to get back to work," she said as she went out of the office and sat on her chair.Meanwhile, in the office, her boss laughed like a madman and slammed his hands on the table."How dare you refuse me Alexandria... I'm gonna make you one of my puppets very soon, you'll see," he threatened."Good morning, Alexa," people greeted her as she rummaged through some files on her desk. She was too busy to answer. She just answered with a simple nod. She dropped the files back on the desk, she was stressed out. First, it was the blue-eyed jerk now her boss asked her to do something she wasn't comfortable with. She massaged her head and let out a helpless sigh. "Good morning, Alexa," a melodious voice greeted. She raised her head and saw a face that was filled with not only makeup but malice. She could see a scowl on the person's face. 'Oh great, the company's witch is here,' Alexandria rolled her eyes. It was the all slutty Faye Archer. Faye always came to bully her but this morning she was not in the mood for any nonsense. Faye was one of the many workers in the company but she was here which means she was up to no good. Faye was quite pretty, she was a twenty-five years old blonde woman, and she was the same age as Alexandria. She had an hourglass stature, unlike the average
Xander's eyes were filled with horror as he sat in a corner of his room. The memories of what happened years ago kept haunting him. "I'm so sorry, please forgive me...I didn't mean to..," he croaked as he buried his face in his palm. He could still remember that night, the night his misery began. He could still remember her screams. He whimpered as he took the last gulp from the bottle of liquor in his hands. His body trembled as he broke the bottle, it shattered into a million pieces. His cyan eyes carried many emotions, especially guilt. He took a piece of the broken glass and slit his wrist with it. His eyes were now expressionless and cold. He knew he was losing a lot of blood but he didn't bother to do anything about it, he wanted to die. He had called his psychiatrist, Zion who was also his best friend to come over but he hadn't seen him so he stopped expecting him. He heard a knock on the door, and he immediately stood up to check who was at the door, his legs wobbled as he
"Oh my God," Alexandria groaned. She kicked off her shoes massaging her neck. She was really tired. "Hey baby girl," a loud shriek startled her. Stacy bounced happily as she walked towards the couch. Alexandria could tell her friend was happy with the way she grinned like a mad woman. "What's up with that smile? you might break your jaws, you know?" Alexandria asked with narrowed brown eyes. "I got a job!" Stacy shrieked almost piercing Alexandria's ear drums. "Really?" Alexandria asked with wide eyes. She was very happy with her friend. "Yeah!, I got a job as a waitress in a coffee shop," she said with a smile. Alexandria's face fell, she was unhappy bex Stacy deserved better. Stacy was more educated and experienced but now her friend was a waitress. Stacy, who saw the look on her friend's face wanted to laugh. She was just joking and her friend was easy to fool. She got a job not as a waitress but as a tutor for a high school student and the salary was really big. She wanted t
Alexandria gulped when she heard Stacy, she knew Stacy wasn't bluffing. 'No food?..how will I live?!,' She asked herself inwardly. "So, make your choice, it's either you tell me and eat some delicious cake or you don't eat anything delicious from now on," Stacy threatened again. 'Come on, Alex, I know you're tough but to crack but just give in and tell me already,' she whined inwardly while pulling a tough face. "Fine, I'll tell you but I'll have three slices of cake, okay? Alexa bargained. "I'll give you the whole cake, now tell me," Stacy said as she sat next to her friend. " Well...," Alexandria started She began to narrate everything that happened and Stacy couldn't keep her mouth closed, she couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Wait...you smashed his windscreen... no, you broke his windscreen?!!," Stacy asked as her forest green eyes widened in shock. 'Oh my goodness, that man should be thanking his stars that you didn't smash his head instead,' Stacy said inwardly. "
"Sure, why not?" Alexa said with her mouth filled with cake. 'I wonder what she's gonna ask now,' she said mentally. "Is he handsome?" Stacy blurted out. *clank* Alexandria dropped the spoon with her mouth wide open. Stacy grinned when she saw the look on her friend's face. She wanted to know if the so-called jerk was handsome. Alexandria, on the other hand, became red with anger and embarrassment. She was embarrassed because Stacy was right, the man was handsome. A pair of cyan eyes flashed through her mind. "Yes, he is handsome...," Alexandria blurted out unknowingly. Stacy's eyes widened in joy. loved to hear about handsome men. She was more surprised than happy because this was the first time she heard her friend compliment a guy. 'Oh my goodness, she just said he's handsome, I can't wait to hear more about him!!!,' Stacy shrieked inside. Meanwhile, Alexa was scolding herself for talking too much. "Really Alexa, tell me..what's the color of his eyes..? How tall is he?..
'Clank!!' "What's that?" Zion said as he jumped off the bed. He quickly rushed out of his room to check on his friend whom he had left on the couch only to find out that he wasn't there. "Where did that idiot go now?" he grumbled to himself. 'Clank!!' He heard another sound. "Damn this idiot, don't tell me he's cooking right now," he said with a sigh as he shook his head. He walked towards the kitchen and met Cancer holding a frying pan with an angry look on his face. Cancer looked up and met his friend's gaze. "Hey bro, what are you doing, hehe," he laughed nervously. He knew Xander was mad because Xander only cooked when he was mad but his food was always delicious. Xander glared at him as he walked towards the cabinet to get something. 'Tsk...what's wrong with him? Is he on his period or something? 'Zion mused. "Hey.....you could at least acknowledge me after what I did yesterday," Zion said with narrowed eyes. Xander's head snapped too. looked at Zion with his super fr
"Good morning, Andria," a man of about fifty-two years old greeted Alexandria. "Good morning, Mr. Salvador, how was your night?" Alexa asked him with a smile. "Ah, it was okay, how about yours? You look tired," The elder man asked with worry. "Oh... Uh, I was. working," Alexa lied. She couldn't imagine herself telling the man that the reason why she couldn't sleep was that she was thinking about what she would do when she meets the 'car crash' guy. "Oh...o hope Mr. Petrakis isn't giving you too much work?" Mr. Salvador asked again. "Oh no, I just completed the work I was assigned," She said as she shook her head. "Are you sure you don't want to go back home to rest? It's still early,' Mr. Salvador advised. Alexandria remembered her friend's scream and she quickly decided against going back. "Uh...there's no need, is anyone here?" Alexa asked. "Uh, no one's here.....ah yes, the big boss is here, Mr. Cross, he has come back to work," Mr. Salvador's said. "Really? That's nice,
"Whyy.....?!," Alexa cried as she got into the ladies' room. "Why am I so foolish? Why did I do that? Where do I find another job? Oh my God," she babbled while messing with her hair. "Okay...okay, you. can do this Alexa, just get out and face that asshole......I mean Mr. Cross," she said breathing in and out. She quickly rearranged her hair and stepped out of the ladies. Her heart began to pound in anxiety and fear, she could only hear the sound of her heels, she quickly sat down on her chair. "Alexa, the big boss wants you in his office...Alexa...Alex!!!," Peter calls snapping her out of her thoughts. "Uh...I'm so sorry, what do you need?" She said as she stood up. "What's wrong with you?....the big boss wants to see you, he said he gives you five minutes to get up there you. have approximately three minutes to get there now," Peter said while checking his watch. 'Uh...three minutes? Does he think I have superpowers,' she mused while looking at Peter with a confused look on he
