I don't wanna talk about it on the phone that's why I am coming over do you have alcohol in the fridge or should I get on my way there?" He asked "Jord you know you can't drink on weekdays." "I will get some on my way." He said ignoring what she said and hung up before she could reply. The sadness in his voice made her sad as well. Jordan was usually a cheerful person. He rarely let his sadness or emotions get the better of him, he had always been the rational and realistic

"When do you plan on coming in for work Kat?"Lucas voiced out as soon as she picked the call, she knew she shouldn't have drunk last night, she checked the time and it was about five-thirty and she did a retake to make sure she heard him right, why would he expect her to be at work by five-thirty am?"Hello, sir it's five-thirty in the morning why will I be at work already?""I know the time, we had an agreement remember?""What agreement and why does it involve me coming to work early,""Can't, don't you remember?""Remember what?"Katrina asked, she was feeling so low, hangovers were the worst shits to deal with and hers was always extreme, this is why you shouldn't have drunk. She mentally scolded herself while trying hard to remember what she and Lucas had talked about but nothing was clicking."Did you have an anemia cuz I sent you a text last night to get here early today and told you that I will get the driver to come to pick you up bu

Chapter Five

Lucas watched her sleep, they both had work to do but he just didn't want to wake her, she looked beautiful even while sleeping, why was he just noticing her beauty, well not totally though, he had known she was a pretty woman from the moment she had come for the interview six years ago, back then he had thought she won't last a week with him cuz she looked so fragile and vulnerable but she had proved him wrong by withstanding him and even sticking to him for so long, she is hardworking and very efficient, she rarely made mistakes and when she does, she fixes it in no time, he wasn't sure he can work with someone else at this point, cuz she is the only one who can take all his shit without complaining.Before she came to work for him, he had over fifteen Secretaries who either quit or are fired by him, she is the only one who had worked for him for a year and above, it has been six whole years. The thought that she had considered quitting at a point didn't sit well with h

Chapter Six

"What did you just say?"She asked in shock, she must have heard him wrongly, there is no way he just said what she heard."Kat, no need to raise your voice, hear me out first,""I am not raising my voice, I may have heard you wrongly that's why I am asking,""You heard what I said, I am asking you to be my girlfriend,"He said again, this time she was sure she heard him right, did he like her? Why will wanting her to be his girlfriend be a favor to ask, he could have just asked, she suspected there is more to this but it didn't stop her lovesick heart from doing a little, Nah scrap that, her heart did a major jump for joy but she felt she needed to hear everything he wanted to say first before all these dancing or jumping for joy."I don't understand, your girlfriend?""No need to look so disgusted or dismayed Kat, I am not in love with you or anything, I just need your help to...She couldn't hear the other part of what he was saying, her ea

Chapter Seven

"Come again, I didn't quite get what you said?"He said and she repeated herself "Lucas asked me to be his girlfriend,"She said much louder."Wow, girl, that so nice, wow, your dreams finally came true, he exclaimed with much excitement, too much excitement for someone who claimed not to like her boss. "You don't look happy about it though,"He said after a while when she didn't smile or react to his congratulations. "Well, that's just one part of it,""Well, spill girl"He replied even more concentrated "Well, the thing is he asked me to be his girlfriend for a week, not a real girlfriend but like a fake,"She said and trailed off when he gave her a pissed look."What the fuck Katrina Elizabeth Jones, tell me you didn't agree to that, I'mma go and wipe that mudafuckers ass right now, who does he think he is and why will he make such foolish request,""Calm down, Jord, and hear me out."."I finna wanna go and

Chapter Eight

Katrina woke up with a start, she had not slept well last night though she had gone to bed early, she had been toasting and turning in bed and had given up at a point and just ended up doing some work on her laptop which had not been easy cuz her mind kept going back to the event of the day and also the upcoming trip she was both excited and scared. She sluggishly got up from the bed and headed to the restroom, brushed her teeth, and washed her face before coming back into the room to put finishing touches to the stuff she had arranged the previous evening for her travel. Thankfully, she just had her period and it would be until early next month before it would come again but she still made sure to pack pads just in case. Not wanting to wake Jordan up, she tried to move her stuff to the living area as quietly as she could, the time was just past five am and she still had a lot of time since they usually use an eleven am flight every time they traveled, bookings for flight usua

Chapter Nine

"Do we need to do this?" She asked again for the fifth if not hundredth time and Lucas decided that she is one daring woman, she has been asking the same question over and over again and he wanted to seal that pretty mouth of hers with his, knowing that if he did that she would run away and not look back helped him keep his senses. They were at a boutique and she has been asking the same question with every new clothing she tried on."Yes, baby,"He replied which made her cringe."Stop calling me that," she mouthed over the lady fitting her dress, he laughed and shook his head.When he had woken up this morning he had wanted to wait till she come to him herself but the thought of her changing her mind had driven him out of the house and towards hers, though he had met a shocker there, he didn't know she lived together with the weird guy from the designing team, he knew they were friends but he didn't know they were that closed, he wanted to ask her why they

Chapter Ten

"Wow, this is one thing I love about these trips, the food,"Katrina said, savoring the food, they were on the plane, she had waited three hours more before she could eat, it was already past eleven am, this was the longest she had stayed without food in a while and she didn't want to repeat the experience. "Sorry it took so long for you to eat, I know how hungry you were,""I can tell you that you don't know the half of it, but it's cool, and I am just gonna get used to you saying sorry and also being sweet to me,"She replied before stuffing her mouth with food, whoever prepared this food needs a pay raise because God damn it they were doing a superb job."Once again I should defend myself that I have always been a sweet and nice boss,"Lucas said and Katrina eyed him before stuffing her mouth with food again."What? I am saying the truth and you know that,"He defended. "I didn't say anything though,""Yeah, you didn't but your
