The Inflammable Secret

Tapping my fingers lazily on the countertop I waited patiently for the bartender to bring me my cocktail even when what I really needed was that beer. But I had to remain sane.Since I had the leisure of time I looked around the part of the bar I never visited because if I was here at any other time my purse would be ripped and yet I won’t be able to afford getting in. The blue neon lights were nearly blinding but it screamed rich in every corner. Even the drinks were double my salary. There were men in suits all around and so many women looking like models floating from one table to another. There was literally a waitress/waiter at everyone’s side and even they looked mighty rich. Overwhelming much?Yeah no doubt! But I had a job to do and not a one that I am fond of. Period.“Can I buy you a drink?” I looked at the man well more like a boy take a seat next to me. His blonde mop stuck to his forehead with cute sparkly black eyes but the

-NATHAN- “Stella, get me a new blazer immediately!” I barked at my assistant as soon as I stepped into the building. I walked straight to the elevator ignoring the glances of my employees but in my hurry I hit my head on the doors of the elevator. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!!!! I am sure Stella can see my anger because she frantically nodded her head and rushed God knows where. If I didn’t get a new blazer within the next 3 minutes Stella will be packing her box out of her ‘personal office’. I really think I am spoiling my employees with all these facilities or more like my father spoilt them beforehand. I removed the stained blazer and fixed my tie again. I could feel annoying glances at me and I am not pleased. "Is there a photo shoot going on?” I snapped and a few of them shook their head. “Then what are you all staring at?" I screamed at the others making them shake their heads and go back to their desks. Fury is the only emotion in m

-ANASTASIA-Time for a Key update. I took my iPad out and removed the glove from one hand. After debating a bit I decided to read the comments first and then post my update.Marcus: Can I meet you if I come in Joe’s?Lora: When will you ever reveal your name, love?Tenzin:  thank you for making my day better. I had a bad day at work but reading your post has made me feel different.Smiling, I looked up when my nose caught the scent of pizza, I knew then my dinner wasn’t going to be ramen anymore. I went inside and saw Joe, the owner running about between the tables, the place was packed. I waved at him which made him smile at me and wipe a sweat on his forehead.“Anastasia, darling I will have to say some thanks to Key, isn’t that what these young people call the writer?” I nodded smiling. I knew my message from morning would bring in peopl

-Nathan-His smirk gave me the motivation to not let my anger out.“You will hear nothing again pops and I will make sure of that.” I said purposefully avoiding the taking and giving part and gave Peter a sinister smile. “You can rest assured Peter I won’t be handing my burden to you any time soon. You already have a lot on your plate that was mine.” I said making him red as well as his flustered fiancé. It may have happened two years ago but it hurts just like that day.“Natty why don’t you have some steak, you can discuss the rest later.” My mother said trying to diffuse the tension in the room. I stood up and gave her a kiss on the cheek and nodded at my father before taking my coat off the rack.“Thank you mom but I don’t really have an appetite today. I am sure Peter and Jocelyn would appreciate the steak.” I looked at Lara who looked confused w

-ANASTASIA-Okay I am freaking out! This is my first chance to present an actual interview on the channel and it is with none other than my new so called enemy if I can call him that. I am so tensed that I didn’t even put a post in the blog and I have never missed a day before.I had to make sure I keep my feelings under check and not lose my temper. Now I have to look presentable, so…..After rampaging my little closet in the apartment I found what I was looking for, my cyan blue shirt. This is literally my lucky charm I bought it around 6 years ago when I was writing an exam and I became the topper that year. Superstition I know…. but oh well!Also on my internship day wearing this shirt I was awarded with the best day of my life which is why you can’t blame me for picking this old but beautiful and stylish shirt. The only problem was that it was a little tight in the chest area over the years but I am going to
