The CEO and me Chapter six
He nodded then did as told. Lydia cringed when she took a sip. She eyed her drink suspiciously, before shrugging and finishing her drink."Hi! You made it!" A woman called from my other side, looking at me in a smile I recognized all too well. Her brown eyes trailed over my suit clad body. I had seen her before, probably a model for one of Lydia's shows. She was attractive, but her eyes held a glint I was well familiar with."I'm Selena, I asked Lydia to invite you, I didn't think you would actually come", she said as I shook her soft hand. She squeezed mine a little before letting go. She flipped her brown hair- or was it red? I couldn't tell under the dim lights- over her shoulder, then joined the three of us by the bar.1Jayden was trying to keep Lydia from drinking too much. But there wasn't much he could do once she blinked her baby blue eyes at him. He was making a commend

The CEO and me Chapter seven
LeoThe next morning was the longest damn morning of the whole year. Lunch just wouldn't arrive.5"If none of the employees are promoted, then we'll have to hire", the human resources head said, rubbing her temple."Well if we hire, we'll have to do it quietly. The last thing we want is the press getting wind of what happened", another employee retorted as he tapped on the meeting table, staring at Suzannah.I sighed and decided to put a stop to this fool show that had been going on for a couple of hours now. Finding a replacement for the head of the financial department of an international corporation was not as difficult as these idiots made it be. They just loved making things complicated, so

Irene.Wednesday is always more exhausting than other days.Maybe because it's the midpoint of the week. The weekend seemed so far, and the tiredness of the days that had passed washed all over me as I cleaned the stairs again. These days I felt like my back and my feet weren't my own. And it was about to get worse.It was almost two in the afternoon when I got a text message. It was from Jim, but not his own number. Why? Because he was contacting me from the police station.I almost dropped my phone. I was literally shaking as I made my way to the fifth floor where I could find Mrs. Doolittle.I located her quickly and told her to cover for me. I knew I would eventually answer f

You're really good," he said shaking his head, his brows raised as he flipped to another page that had a sketch of the buildings, it was the view that surrounded us.1He smiled looking around then at the sketch, comparing the original to the drawing, "this is really good".'Thanks', I signed. He looked at my hand then at me."Let me guess, that means thank you."I nodded. He gave me my notebook back then had a bite of his brownie half."How long have you been deaf?" he asked after washing down the brownie with some water. I blinked. He was the first person to actually ask me that question. People usually tiptoed around the subject. I was grateful that he didn't. I smiled at him.But as memories of the accident flashed before my eyes, my smile dimmed.2M

Irene.The day finished on a good note, so I slept better than usual. I was well rested as I went about my regular morning at work.When I got to my lunch spot on the rooftop, the blue eyed man was already there. His eyes flickered away when he saw me. He tried to put off the cigarette he held between his fingers.I looked at the cigarette that was now crushed against the hard surface of the roof. He scratched the back of his neck, the tips of his ears a bit pink. It was kind of cute. I would have smiled if it wasn't for my huge dislike for cigarettes.It wasn't my business whether he smoked or not. It really wasn't. But...I sighed as I sat facing him, 'You smoke?' I wrote.He looked at the words

This is a blessing. For once I will not run all around the place chasing them," she said. As if the twins heard her, they squirmed in my lap then slid down. Even before I could reach for their hands, they grabbed mine and pulled me behind them to a display counter that showcased all sorts of colorful dessert, pies and sandwiches.They put their tiny hands on the glass. Their large green eyes scanned the sweets.They wanted something. A feeling of frustration bubbled up in my chest. I wanted to talk to them, ask them if they wanted anything. Before I could wonder what to do, the twins both pointed to tiny chocolate cheesecakes with cream and strawberry on top.They looked back at me, their mouths moving in child talk that, to them, was perfectly understandable.A worker was already waiting for us. I pointed to the same cake the twins did and held up two fingers.
