6. Sinful

"Morning Cara" a very husky, sexy voice said beside me as I struggled to keep my eyes open due to the bright light seeping through the curtains.

It looked to bright, bright like the sun had settled in the sky; I got out of the bed quickly hoping that wasn't the case because if it was, it meant I had overslept and I was late.

"Oh God please" I prayed as I grabbed my phone to check the time. 

I was fucked.

I was two hours late and I had fourteen missed calls from Anabeth, I was so fired; it was at that point I felt a body beside me, rubbing my arms.

"I switched off your alarm because, I felt you needed the time to actually rest" Antonio said lowly.

"You did what? You touched my phone? You switched off my alarm? Are you stupid?" I yelled at him.

What gave him the nerve to do that?

"Calm down Cara" he took a deep breath, trying to grab my arms

"Don't touch me! You don't do that!! I knew coming here was a mistake like you said" I spat, grabbed the clean clothes I took from my apartment last night and headed to the bathroom to wash up and get dressed.

"Cara" he called but, I ignored him, grabbed my bags and left the house. Luckily for me though, I got a taxi that took me straight to work.

"Sewa, how nice of you to join us" Mr Blue said to me when I got to my office. Scary man was there before I got in.

" I'm so sorry Sir, my alarm was faulty and I didn't know that so I over slept, I'm sorry" I pleaded.

He gave me a death glare and warned me never to come two hours late again, then he left my office.

I took a deep breath and started my work for today, during which, my phone was ringing nonstop, this Antonio guy never gave up.

Three hours later, Melissa came to my office, telling me about a hot visitor outside, turns out it was Aliya.

"Girl, it's like when you're in here, it's hard to reach you" was the first this she said when she stepped into my office and I laughed.

"I'm sorry, I just have a lot to do in here" I told her and she nodded.

"Let's go out for lunch" she said casually.

"I'm working woman" I told her

"I can see that, don't you go out for lunch break?" She asked me.

"I do but, I came in late today, I have to make up for the time I lost" I told her and she nodded.

"Let's make it dinner" I told her. I felt bad for her; she came all the way here to get me to go for lunch with her only for me to turn her down.

"You know what? Fuck it, let's go" I told her and a wife smile was plastered on her gorgeous face.

"Melissa, tidy up for me, I'm going out for lunch" I told Melissa and she nodded her head.

I grabbed my coat and left the office with Aliya trailing behind me.

"Did Antonio tell you about the new studio he's opening down town?" Aliya asked out of the blue

"Studio? Studio for what?" I asked her and she gave me a 'you must be kidding me' look.

"Antonio never told you what he does for a living huh?" She asked and I nodded my head.

"He's like the best photographer in the world, got studios almost everywhere in the world, he says it's for when he travels, he hates borrowing studios. To me I think he's just a spoiled arrogant child" Aliya said and I laughed.

So Antonio's a photographer? He honestly looks like one of those mean, arrogant CEOs you see on tv. No wonder I saw a lot of framed pictures in his house, I never knew he took them.

Well, it's a good thing he doesn't have to wake up early to to go work and have some bastard fire you from work just because you're not early.

On cue, my phone started to ring, Antonio was calling.

Does he have a life?

"Is this how Antonio behaves with all the girls he's slept with?" I asked Aliya when we got to a small restaurant down the road, not to far from where I work.

"What's up?" Aliya asked and I told her everything that happened this morning.

"And he won't stop calling me, I'm not sure the understands that I don't want to speak to him" I added.

"He knows he did something wrong and he just want to apologize, you should pick up or call him back" she told me and I rolled my eyes before failing his number.

He picked up on the first ring

"I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am for caring about you and the eye bags under your eyes" he said and hung up.

He legit didn't call me Cara.

Gotta admit, that hurt.

"He said he's sorry for caring about me and he hung up" I told Aliya and she smiled.

"You hurt his pride woman" Aliya said and I felt bad immediately, i felt like going back to work but that would be unfair to Aliya so, I stayed back, we ordered donuts and a milkshake and when we were done eating, I couldn't wait to bury myself in work.

When I got back to my office, I checked my phone to see if I missed a call from Antonio or maybe a text but, there was nothing.

That didn't feel right.
