Meeting Mr. handsome

It was some minutes past 6pm. Caitlyn Hugh was dragging her tired feet back home after a long day at work. As she walked along the lonely road, she looked back at intervals, hoping for a cab to appear. Although she was very much aware that cabs do not ply that road, Caitlyn prayed for a miracle. She took out her phone from the small bag she hung on her shoulder and connected her headset to the device. She was going to click play on her favourite music, but the sound of a car honking halted her. She stopped walking, and the car stopped, too. Inwardly, Caitlyn hoped that the owner of the car would offer her a ride- she was so exhausted to the point of accepting an offer without caring if the driver was a stranger or not. The owner of the car, as it appeared, opened the car's door after switching off the car's engine. She wondered why. 'If he was going to ask to give me a lift, he definitely would not switch his car's engine off.' She furrowed her brows slightly and watched closely

A dream about Mr. handsome

A man dressed in a blue and black uniform stood at the widely opened gate; Caitlyn guessed the man was his gatekeeper. Immediately the gate opened, he ignited his car's engine and moved his car with such force that Caitlyn fell to the floor, again.“I'm sorry, sir! I'm so sorry,” she watched his gatekeeper apologise while bowing. He ignored the man and simply drove in. Caitlyn rushed over to the gatekeeper. “Can you let me in, please?” she pleaded shamelessly with a smile.As he opened his mouth to give her a reply, his boss shouted, "If she steps a foot into this compound, consider yourself jobless, Mr Dalton.”She shifted her gaze to him. 'Why's he so cold?' She wondered. A hand gripped her left arm firmly. “What are you doing?” she asked the gatekeeper who had gripped her arm, wide eyed.He gave her no reply. Instead, he began pulling her away. Caitlyn struggled to free her arm, all to no avail. As soon as they were a little distance away from the gate, he stopped and released his

Martin King

"Mr Martin, your mother is requesting to see you." No sooner had the secretary finished her words before a woman who looked like one in her early sixties barged into the office.She oozed of wealth and good life. One wouldn't need to spare her a second glance to know she was a wealthy woman.Her bright yellow dress swept the floor as she walked. Her makeup was heavy. Her neck, ears and fingers were adorned with jewelry that would surely cost a fortune. The small bag she held was a limited edition. It had taken nothing out of her to purchase it."Martin King?" She called in her usual authoritative voice. Her son ignored her and faced his secretary. "You can leave," He told her. She bowed slightly and hurried out of the office. She was scared of Madam Scarlett King. Everyone feared the woman.Martin's head rested on the chair he sat on. "What do you want, mother?" He asked the woman with his eyes shut while he rotated his chair."You know what I want, Martin!" The woman replied with a s

"We meet again."

"We meet again, Mr handsome," Caitlyn smiled and stopped in front of him. Martin sighed and made to walk away. "Mr Bernard isn't in at the momen," She informed him, and he paused."Let's leave, then," Martin said to his secretary."Sir, it was really hard to secure an appointment with him. If we leave now, we won't be able to get to him till the next three or four weeks," His secretary whispered to his hearing and hers alone. A small groan escaped his throat. "You both can wait in my office. He will be here in an hour or less," Caitlyn offered."Yes." "No." Martin and his secretary answered simultaneously. His secretary gave him an apologetic look. He cleared his throat and faced Caitlyn. "We will rather wait in my car," He told her."If you do that, you wouldn't be seeing him today. I'm his right hand. The person after him. I could put in words for you to enable the meeting hold today, if you want me to. Otherwise, I'll return to my office," Caitlyn voiced out with her usual smile.

"Did you win a lottery," The surprised man asked as he walked in on Caitlyn dancing happily. "Oh, no, sir," She replied and laughed heartily. The man smiled and took a sit in her office."How about the documents I asked you to duplicate?" He asked. Caitlyn opened a drawer and brought out a green file. She closed it and stretched the file to him, "here they are sir."He took it and thanked her before opening it. He brought out the documents and went through them, carefully. Caitlyn watched him, hoping there was no mistake.She was sure there was none, as she had carefully done as he asked. The man finished and put them back into the file. "Well done, Miss Caitlyn," He praised her and she smiled."See me in my office in thirty minutes. I'll prepare a file which you would give to Mr. Martin King the next time he comes to the firm." Caitlyn nodded with a smile. She was excited that she would be seeing Martin again.As her boss left her office, she giggled while clapping her hands like a l

Chapter 3"Mr. Martin, you might have to pardon her. Please," the doctor walked into the ward with his hands folded behind him. Martin turned immediately."For what reason? I do not want my mother to get uncomfortable, most especially by this woman!" He pointed to Caitlyn, his eyes opened widely.The doctor sighed and briefly adjusted his glasses. He hesitated a bit before he spoke. "This woman just lost her mother to a horrible accident. She went into shock. We're worried about how the state of her mental health would be once she wakes up, " the doctor stared at Caitlyn pitifully."How is that any of my concern? Do you think she is more important than my mother?"Herald shifted closer to his brother and whispered into his ear, "show some pity, brother." Martin turned to him and gave him a cold glare. Herald fearfully moved away."She must leave this room, or you move my mother to a better one before I return," he declared and stormed out.Herald sighed and turned to the doctor. "Move

Chapter 7"Madam Scarlett," The doctor called and went to meet the woman who stood by the door. The woman's gaze was glued on Caitlyn. She ignored the doctor and began to advance toward Caitlyn. "You must be more important to my sons than I am to them, as they have decided to stay here with you rather than with their dying mother," She shouted and stood beside Caitlyn's bed. "You're not dying mother, " Herald countered in a low voice, but madam Scarlett heard him. Caitlyn's head was bowed and she fiddled with her fingers. 'Why didn't they just go to her?'"I'm not? " The woman turned to Herald. He chuckled wryly and looked away. Martin heaved a sigh."How dare you try to take my sons away from me?" The woman's look was stern and sent shivers down Caitlyn's spine. Her eyes were brought down and she held her shaky hands tightly. Madam Scarlett suddenly busted into a burst of loud laughter at the same time Martin attempted to stop her from intimidating Caitlyn any further. "Oh, dear,

Yes! I will.

Chapter 8Caitlyn blinked rapidly. "I don't know what to say.""Your phone. Can I have your phone? " Martin sighed and spoke after a while. She slowly brought it out from her back pocket and stretched it to him.He collected it and dialed his number. He stopped the call on the first ring and stretched the phone back to her."Save it. I'll call you in two days. I want a reply then, " He told her. She was unable to speak. He dipped his hands into his coat pockets and walked away. She turned and watched him till he walked out of the hall. "Wow! " She breathed out."Martin king wants me as his partner!" She squealed and giggled, cupping her face with both palms.... Martin drove into his compound and went straight to his bedroom after parking his car. He took off his coat and flung it to his bed. Then, he took off his shoes and placed them in the position he took them out from. He stretched and headed to the kitchen. As he opened the fridge in the kitchen, he heaved a sigh. "I need

Chapter 9Caitlyn was standing beside her gate when Martin arrived in his car. She was wearing a black leather skirt that stopped way above her knees, a small white top that clung to her body, a black leather jacket, and a white shoe to match.Martin swallowed nothing as he stared at her. He was mesmerized by her beautiful face and body.He cleared his throat nervously, winded down, and poked his head out a little. "Get in!" He ordered her. She smiled and quickly rushed to enter the car. "Hi," She greeted with a soft voice when she entered, but got no response from Martin. She shrugged and put on her seatbelt, feeling slightly embarrassed. Martin drove straight to the store he had in mind."Oh, Mr. King! You're here!" A woman who appeared to be in her early thirties exclaimed excitedly as Martin and Caitlyn walked in. Her hands were clasped together and a huge smile was plastered on her face as she hurriedly joined them. Her long dress swept the floor as she moved."Is this her?" Sh

"How can you be so careless?"

Chapter 10The ride home was quiet.Caitlyn got down from the car after it stopped in front of her house. She opened the door to the backseat and took out the bags. "Thank you," She said to him. He nodded in reply and immediately drove away."He could have at least helped me with my bags. So arrogant!" She murmured to herself as she carried the bags; two in each hand. She opened the gate to her house after so much struggle.When she got to her front door, it was another struggle to find her keys. She attempted to search her bag with the bags of clothes in her hands. After wasting two minutes trying to open her bag, she eventually dropped the bags in her right hand with a tired sigh.With her free hand, she opened her bag and searched through it for the small purse where she kept her keys. She dropped the bags in her second hand when she suddenly couldn't find the purse. "Did I take it out at the store?" She asked herself and began to empty her bag on the floor. It took a while befor
