The unknown number

Kate, Zach and I were standing infront of the massive and most the expensive hotel of Manhattan. At the entrance of the hotel were reporters, paparazzi, cameraman, holding their camera and continuously clicking the pictures of the celebrities and the business tycoons, who were entering from the VIP doors.

And for common employees like us, we had to enter the hotel from backside.

What a sad thing..

"Ugh!! These camera flashes are hurting my eyes, let's get in." Zach groaned in an annoyed tone.

"No! I want to see our boss entering the hotel and I even have my phone ready to click his picture." Kate flashed a smile, pointing her phone to us.

"After clicking his picture, please send it to me also." I said as Kate nodded in excitement while Zach rolled his eyes, frustrated by our behaviour. "How I wish they had taken my pictures too." Kate pouted. "How am I looking?" She turned towards us.

Kate was wearing a hot pink satin floor length dress with spaghetti straps, which had a slit upto to her thighs, exposing it. Meanwhile I was wearing a black off shoulder floor length bodycon, which I bought recently. And Zach was wearing a tuxedo as usual.

"You look pretty." I smiled.

We stood there in the crowd, waiting for our boss/ CEO to appear. Many of the celebrities were posing to the camera man as the cameraman took their photos. Kate and I were gawking at the handsome businessmen and Kate was also clicking their pictures. Where as Zach shook his head in dismay, sighed several times and even rolled his eyes at our immature behaviour.

But it's fun.. being immature is totally fun..

Afterall life is about having fun..

Zach is a good boy, he's the mature one among us. All he wants is a serious relationship with a right girl. He don't do one-night stands. But sadly he didn't find the one yet.

Where as Kate is a playgirl, she has a bad weakness towards all the hot men's and even I share the same weakness with her. But the difference is, she sleeps with them while I don't.

Suddenly a black sleek beautiful limousine appeared as the bodyguards rushed towards the limo. They opened the door of the limo as mine and Kate's breath got caught in our throat. As the Harold Kingston got out of the limo showing all his gracious glory and handsomeness. I had this Taylor Swift's song on my mind, wildest dreams.

He's so tall, handsome as hell he's so bad but he does it so well..

But the main thing was, he wasn't that tall, I mean I'm a good 5'8 while he looks like he's 5'11, that's it. A man's height should atleast be 6'2 but he was handsome as hell with a sharp prominent jaw, pointed nose and facial features were exquisite. He was even well built and his light golden brown hair was tousled back and he was wearing a grey tux.

I know I'm drooling over him.

But can't help it..

He looks like a spicy meat..

The bodyguards were surrounded around him to make a way for him to walk. The bunch of reporters were going crazy as they clicked numerous pictures of Mr Kingston as he walked on the red carpet. Our COO, Mr Frank Lee also came into view as he walked towards Mr Kingston and greeted him.

What an entry dude..

I patted Kate's shoulder vigorously as she was awe struck at Mr Kingston's presence. "Photo.....click a picture of him...soon." I said as she she abruptly pulled her phone out but couldn't click a picture as Harold Kingston entered the hotel.

We both sighed in defeat while Zach snickered as Kate and I shot him a murderous glare. "Okay, can we get in, now?" He asked as we gave him a curt nod. We entered the hotel from backside and made our way towards the banquet hall.

And the banquet hall was marvelous with a high ceiling and a massive chandeliers attached on the ceiling, which illuminated shimmering gold light to the whole hall. There were two rows, one was for the celebrities, business tycoons and another row was for us, for the common employees. The whole hall was classy and elegant with the golden flower vases everywhere. It was exquisite.

We took our seats as our COO Mr Frank Lee got on the stage and tapped the mic before starting his speech.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen..." Our COO started.

"Goodnight!" I yawned.

I really hate these speeches..

"... Tonight is a very special day as it's the twenty fifth year of SDC, New York. And we are also glad to have our CEO Mr Harold Kingston.." the crowd cheered at his name as the old man continued his long boring speech.

Finally the speech session got over as the celebrity couples got up from their seats to have a couple dance on a slow music and again it was all boring.

"I'm gonna go have a drink, wanna come with me?" I asked Kate and Zach as they both shook their head in no.

I sighed and got up before making my way towards the the buffet area. I grabbed a drink for myself and was about to go back towards Kate and Zach but stopped in my tracks as I spotted Harold Kingston walking towards the exit door of the banquet hall along with two men's following him suit.

Where is he going?

I mean the party isn't over yet..

I shrugged.

None of my business..

I walked back towards my friends but they were on the dance floor dancing. Kate was wildly dancing with Shaun, a handsome guy from legal department while Zach was just standing on the dance floor without moving his hips or body.

I finished my drink and was about to make my way towards the dancefloor to dance but my phone suddenly started ringing. I took it out and checked the caller ID, it was an unknown number.

I received the call,

"Hello!!" I slightly screamed as the music in here was too loud.

But there was no response.

"Hello!!" I said again and this time I could hear some whisperings from the other side.

I thought of disconnecting the call and join my friends at the dance floor but then I thought, what if it's my parents call.

I smiled at that thought and made my way outside the banquet hall to talk with this unknown number person.
