Enora:

I wasn’t sure how long I was in my room for. I simply lay there, looking at the ceiling as my thoughts whirled past. I was a coward. I was such a coward for running away. I mean, he said that he was going to be with me, I should have known that that meant having access to all his money.

I turned and grabbed a pillow, hugging it close to my chest that it cooled my skin. It just didn’t feel right. Bridget called me a golddigger. Was that what I was doing? I still didn’t understand how I was able to bag one of the richest men in America. I mean, I was just a plain Jane that was not even out of college yet. No class, no money, no family. I was just like a little dot in such a vast section of society.

“I bet he is so mad at me right now,” I mumbled, pulling the pillow closer till it hurt my biceps. My stomach rumbled and soon, there was no ignoring my craving for food. I wasn’t even sure of what to eat. Maybe I could order out.

My brooding session was ended by a sharp stabbing pai

    Enora:My jaw dropped. “Enora? Darling? Are you okay? Why aren’t you saying anything?”His voice pulled me out of the millions of thoughts that were rushing through my head.“Huh? Yeah. I… I’m so sorry for what happened. You should really go on your trip. I will talk to you later. I have a lot of work to finish up.”He chuckled. “My sweet little workaholic. I guess we will talk later. I love you.”“I love you too.”The phone went dead and I put it down. I was going to spend most of the week alone. But it all seemed so strange. Outside the fact that Jasper was working here, it was when Dakora had planned a date with me that his warehouse in New York caught fire. “Fuck!–”I slapped my hands on my face and dragged them down in exasperation. “–I was letting her get into my head again. Dakota was messing with me. It was just coincidence or she kept regular tabs on her ex husbands. A lot of crazy ex-wives did that. I’ve seen the shows.”I exhaled and returned back to work. It was just

    Enora:“Hello. Nathan, thank God you called. Something weird just happened,” I breathed leaning against the bathroom wall and taking a deep breath.“Really. I would love to know what happened.” I almost stopped breathing. It was like my lungs had closed up and my body stiffened up. This wasn't Nathan. “What’s the matter, pretty little thing? Why aren’t you saying anything? Sad that this isn’t your beloved Nathan.”I gulped hard. I knew that voice: the edge, the entitled sarcasm, but how did she get my number? “What do you want, Dakota?”She chuckled heartily and it reminded me of those witches in disney. She certainly looked like one. “Took you long enough, darling. But I don’t want anything from you. I just thought that you might like to join me for dinner. You know, two ladies, both of which have been fucked by Mr. Wright, sitting together at a nice restaurant, catching up. I can’t imagine anything more scenic.”My eyes made big circles. Did she really think that I was that dumb

    Enora:“W-Wha? Enora?”The papers in his hand slipped and fell to the floor. We were locked, eyes on each other and I could feel memories rushing in and out of my head. Why was he even here? I thought I wasn’t going to see him anymore. After he left college in his sophomore year, I thought it would be good riddance. “Uhmm… I… I…”He picked up the papers, dropped them on my desk and without another word, he rushed out, slamming the door shut behind him.I plopped back into my seat, my thoughts almost bleached. Jasper… my ex… was in my office. He was the new manager. Did Nathan know any of this before he hired him? No, no, no. That was stupid. He wasn’t weird like that. No way he was asking every applicant their dating history. It was just an unfortunate coincidence. I grabbed the papers and worked, trying not to think about Jasper, even though it was literally impossible.We kind of dated. It wasn’t really official but I didn’t think it mattered. He shared a connection and for an e

    Enora:“Surprise!!!”The lobby was filled with smiling faces. Nothing at all like I was expecting. I expected scowls, frowns and sour faces, not streamers, balloons and confetti. I looked up at the banner that was hanging from the ceiling. “Thank you for your work, Miss Lopez!”Was this why Nathan told me that I could come back to work today? They had this surprise planned for me? Since when?I was still lost for words, when Nathan joined me by my side with a big smile on his face. “You have done something incredible for our company, Miss Lopez,” he said, in his business-like voice. “We just thought that it would be good to thank you for pitching to us your amazing idea and putting us back on top.”I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to laugh or cry. I had braced myself for a hostile, tense work environment but all I could see around me were smiling faces. It was unsettling and frankly… quite scary. Someone shoved a cup cake in my hands and something in me was triggered. I forced a sm

    Nathan:I watched her run off. I called her back but she didn’t answer me. What was wrong with her? Did I do something wrong?I got out of my room and just before I could take a few more steps, my phone beeped in my pocket. It was a text from her.“I just need a few minutes. I’m feeling overwhelemed.”I stared at those words for minutes, reguritating every single one with my heart thumping in my chest. Overwhelmed? Did I do something wrong? I must have Fuck! What was it?I paced back and forth, my mind whirling like an engine. I still couldn’t think of anything. Was the card thing to much? I knew I crossed a line going to her bank and changing her income estimate, but I thought that it was going to make her happy. I went back into my room and looked at the text one last time before tossing my phone aside and flopping on the bed. I ran my fingers through my hair, my heart racing. Should I call her? I fished for my phone on the seat of sheets, duvets and pillows and finally found it.
