KATHERINE
Junior is my little brother, and he has the habit of calling me at this hour, every day. So, do not blame me for not bothering to check the Caller ID. I was so used to it.
But, what on earth is happening?With the phone still placed against my ear, I felt my soul suddenly travel out from this world due to the excitement from hearing my boss’s voice. I never expected it. It feels so wonderful and sexy in my ears and I would give anything to continue hearing it till eternity. I couldn’t stop imagining how heavenly it will fell like to listen to him while he went about different things that I didn’t care about just for me to hear his voice.“Hello? Are you still there?” I heard his enchanting deep voice and almost gave up, my breath hitched as my heartbeat skyrocketed. Once again, I was so lost in my fantasy that I was startled by his deep voice. Maybe I was just hearing things, I thought. So I decided to confirm.“Ahh…” A yelp of pain escaped my lips, confirming that I wasn’t dreaming.“Are you alright, Katherine?” His voice resounded in my ear. Wait, is he worried about me? He’s worried about me. It feels like I’m dreaming.“Katherine?” He repeated my name, sending out from my head.“Y-yes sir” I stuttered my reply so he would stop worrying about me, but my voice came out muffled and I can’t tell if he heard me or not. I can’t believe that this is really happening. Just when I missed him the most, he decided to call me."Make sure to come to work early tomorrow, Katherine. You have to accompany me to a meeting tomorrow"That was all my boss said before the call ended."Y-yes sir" I mumbled my reply even though the call had ended. Wait, he wants me to go to a meeting with him? What happened to Alex, his assistant?"Ahhhhh" I screamed excitedly as I fell on the couch, rolling myself on the couch due to the uncontrollable joy that took over me. I know I'm being overly dramatic right now, but this is a rare opportunity. It’s an avenue for me to ogle at my secret love. Gosh, I love that man so much and it's driving me crazy. However, I always make sure to keep my feelings at bay so it won't affect my work. He belongs to someone else which I wouldn’t dare to forget if I want to remain alive. Of course my life and that of my family is precious to me.Hell, he is officially and legally married to someone! So he is out of the market!But still, I just can't help it. I'm not going to cause trouble and I know my limit. But I can't stop myself from indulging for a little bit. I just have to be careful of his wild and scary wife, Rose. She always visits once in a while and anytime there is a need for her to show up, she doesn't hesitate. I envy her so much, but I can't help but keep my feelings to myself. My boss and his wife are match made in heaven and I know that he loves her so much. Of course I know that my short and bland self cannot compete with her tall and beautiful body, although she is shorter than my very tall Boss with 6'3, but her height is very ok and nothing like my pitiful height. Since I'm 5'5, I think she should be around 5'10. I'm only sure of my boss's height but not the wife's…hahah.With my happiness overflowing, the hunger that I felt simply vanished and I had to force myself to cook because I want Hannah to eat when she returns.I can't wait to tell her about this great news!By the time my pasta was ready, Hannah had already returned."Mmmm, what is happening?" She squealed excitedly while sniffing the air. She impatiently threw her bag on the couch as she rushed towards the kitchen."My chicken pasta is happening, do you want some?" I decided to tease her, while following behind her."Of course, I want!" She smiled at me, before she took her seat on the stool closer to the counter. I smiled at her and shook my head. She loves my cooking, I know it.I dished some into a flat plate and just as I was about to drop it in front of her, I felt that something was wrong with Hannah.It was obvious, judging from the way her previously excited self was now silent and lost in a deep thought with her eyes fixed on nothingness. I quietly dropped the plate before her, and slowly sat beside her. "What happened, Hannah?" She was looking so happy seconds ago, what made her mood to become so gloomy and sad?"Kat, I'm heartbroken. It hurts a lot" She said, as she finally raised her lowered head to look at me with her teary eyes.
Of course I could see what was going on through her, I don’t need any seer to know so.I sighed and pulled her into my arms, petting her back. "I have told you several times Hannah to stop doing this to yourself. We can only love them from afar" I tried to console her. Every day, she’s always crying because her boss whom she was in love with was always having different type of girls. He wasn't dating anyone but enjoys having fun with them. "But it hurts a lot, Kat. It is better that he has a permanent person than for him to be sleeping around" she sniffles."He doesn't even know that you love him, Hannah. He's a young and handsome man with needs. Our love is our business! We can't hold it against them" I decided to remind my best friend that's always carried away by her feeling. "Whatever" Hannah whined after listening to the bitter truth from me. "It still hurts" She finally cried out."It's okay, just cry all of it out. That's what we have brought upon ourselves by listening to our hearts and I understand how you feel right now. It's how I always feel about my boss when his wife comes around. But your case is still better than mine""How?" She furrowed her brows.I moved her away from my embrace and tilted her face up while holding onto her chin, I looked into her teary green orbs and said, "Babe, your boss is still very single and you can always make a move on him at any time. But my boss is already taken, forever!""Oh, that's true. Your case is worse than mine" She quickly agreed, wiping her tears away."You're crazy, just rub it on my face even more" I laughed."I'm sorry, Kat" She apologized."Don't be. Just stop the crying and enjoy this delicious meal that I have prepared for you""I'm jumping on the chicken first" She giggled, as she went and washed her hands, before grabbing the huge chicken lap beside her pasta. While I laughed. She never cease to amaze me.I went and dish my own food as we started to devour our food. "I'm going to a meeting with my boss tomorrow" I decided to tell her about my boss call."I'm so happy for you, girl!" She squeaks with excitement in her eyes. "You can now gawk as much as you want" She added, winking at me.I just laughed but didn't say anything. I have no comment at all.Because I know that all I'm going to do is ogle and work. Nothing more and no hope for something more!KatherineI yawned lazily and stretched myself, before rolling onto my stomach, but it wasn't comfortable enough. No matter how much I tossed and turned, I couldn't find the right angle to sleep in, so I finally gave up as I rolled onto my back, staring at the ceiling with my eyes wide open.I was sleep-deprived as my eyelids had refused to close. Every vital in my body was refusing to grant me this simple wish, but how could I? When all my thoughts were occupied with the thought of my handsome boss. I knew it was going to be hard for me to get him off my mind after the call from him, but I never knew it would be this bad. It was as if the time had stopped, and all I could imagine was him as a vivid image of his stern and enchanting face kept flashing in my head. Just the thought of him alone was enough to keep me up the whole night. Not just that, I could feel myself feeling somehow, making me blush, as my body heated up. I kept giggling to myself like a fool, thus, sleep seems like
NARRATOR"Sir, we are here." Otis, informed the man who seemed to be dozing off in the back seat with his eyes tightly shut, as they approached Figo, Inc. He quickly killed the engine of the car as he rush out of the car in order to open the door for his boss.Rock whose eyes was closed while he leaned against his seat, slowly opened his eyes and sighed before stepping down from the vehicle which the door was already open. He buttoned his suit before taking a step towards the tall and mighty building that always had people gasping in shock. Even those that heard the name alone gaps in awe too, that's how powerful the legacy he had built is. His only regret was that his father wasn’t here to see how far and how well he’d done. Rock who always thought that his father was his role model felt that the man would've been very proud of him if he was alive. He would’ve been happy to see that what he’d started had grown beyond imagination. Rock had made sure to take his father’s business to
NARRATORAdjusting her glasses, Katherine shook her thoughts away as she chose to focus on her work.A few minutes later, the men walked out of the room. While Rock was in the front, Alex was diligently walking behind him, pausing when his boss did.Katherine felt her heart somersault in her chest when an intimidating aura sent a cold shiver down her spine. She swallowed hard, and quickly stood up when she saw her boss standing not far from her desk. His compelling eyes pierced into hers that was fidgeting behind the glasses on the bridge of her nose. Only that, she would love to be compelled into doing something more obscure with the man..Her careful and sceptical eyes studied the expression on the man's straight face.'Was he here to take me to the appointment?' she couldn't stop the tinge of excitement that blossomed within her.But reality mercilessly butchered her hopes."I would be having a visitor, Katherine. Make sure to take good care of her while I'm away. " That was all
NARRATORIn a gorgeous private restaurant with an incredible view of the city, two people were having lunch at an elegant table for two as they chatted mainly about business.Opposite Rock was a glamorous looking woman, who seemed to be in her early forties. She was no other person but Nora Jones. She was a famous renowned actress and the CEO of Nora cosmetics. She was also the author of Hidden Secrets; The Heart of Man. This is a book that was as widely known as its author. Mere looking at her, one could easily realize the type of person she was. Her appearance speaks class, power and fame. Indeed, she wasn't an easy one. Even though Rock detested the idea of having a meal with the lady before him, he had to swallow his disgust and dine with her. It's for business purposes, after all."Cheers" Nora Jones raised her glass and smiled seductively at Rock. Her hand remained up as she waited for his response. Sending a spoon of rice into his mouth, Rock hesitated a little and only rai
KATHERINEIt was Saturday morning, which meant there was no work for me today. I work from Monday to Friday. Today was bright, the rays of the sun were sipping through the curtains and I had to open the curtain so the whole place could be brightened. It was such a sunny and lovely day.Tying my hair up in a messy bun, changing my nightgown into a white singlet with black sweatpants, I decided to clean the house. Hannah had left early in the morning saying she needed to be somewhere. She left after telling me that she would be back on time. I guess she would be back before the time for the party the company was hosting.In Figo tradition, will I say that they're possessed with the spirit of celebration?They always ceased every opportunity to throw parties. Moreover, all the company's staff were always invited because they believed it would boost more cooperation and hardworking spirit amongst their employees.Honestly, I don't know if that has been working for them. Not that I care
NARRATORKatherine and Hannah pulled up into the venue's driveway. The two girls looked so smashing and hot.However, one of them still felt uncertain and nervous.It was Katherine.She wasn't used to going to parties. She was that type of girl who doesn't like to mingle with people as she felt like they would always judge and talk badly about her. The last time she had gone to a party, it didn't end well and it made her recoil back into her shell and ever since then, she has been finding it difficult to get out."How do I look?" Katherine turned over to Hannah, who had just killed the engine and asked. Her eyes clouded with expectations. She was obviously not convinced about how she looked, and she probably didn't want to be a subject of mockery.It's certain that there will be the presence of almost if not all their colleagues at the party.Hannah just chuckled, she couldn't believe that her friend was still doubting herself after she had used all the words known in the dictionary t
NARRATORNot only was Rose making out with Alex, she was half naked, with her black dress raised up to her chest.Katherine felt blood drain from her face as she watched the two; the way Rose's neck was thrown back, giving Alex more access, a soft and pleasurable moan escaping from her mouth when Alex's other hand gave her bare breast a gentle squeeze.She couldn't help but swallow hard in fright, her legs shaking profusely. The urine that was threatening to burst her bladder had suddenly disappeared, causing her to wonder why she was there in the first place. How come she was the one witnessing this great scandal? Indeed, she was such an unfortunate being!Those two were so carried away that they failed to notice the scared and shivering human watching them while they hungrily devoured each other.Katherine was shocked beyond words as she stood there like a statue, not knowing whether to leave the door and run, or to remain there. She practically couldn't decide what to do as she was
KATHERINE"Why didn't I just stay at home?" I sighed helplessly after Rose had left the restroom. I could still feel myself shivering from her threats because they were definitely not an empty threat. I wish I had stood my ground and remained at home. Breathing out, I strolled over to the sink, I switched on the tap and quickly rinsed my mouth, which was testing horrible after puking on my boss’ suit. I just hope he doesn’t punish me at work because of my unspeakable action.How could I do that to him?Even though I was trying to protect him from seeing his wife with another man, who happened to be his personal assistant, I didn’t have to vomit on his body. It was embarrassing and I don't think I will be able to forget that moment, neither will he.Sighing deeply, I took a look at my pathetic reflection in the mirror one last time before exiting the restroom. My legs were still shaking and I almost fell, causing me to hold the wall for support.Finally making it back into the hall,
