ALEXAThe moment I walked out through the front door, the first tear slipped out from my eye.“Gosh, I have been such a fool,” I thought to myself. “If he wasn’t under pressure, he would not have bequeathed the company to me,” I thought deeper.The hurt and pain I was feeling deep inside could not be explained.I took my phone to book a cab, but my vision was already blurred by my tears, and it got me more frustrated.I was still trying to dry my eyes when my phone rang. I picked up without checking the caller. How could I have checked anyway when my eyes were still flooded with tears?“What?” I snapped instantly.“Hey, is everything okay?” Donald asked sweetly and lovingly.I became embarrassed that I had snapped at him for no reason.“I am just having a bad day,” I said, trying to cover up for my attitude.“Where are you?” Donald asked.“Why do you ask?” I asked him in return.“I want to come and pick you up, Alexa,” he said. “You don’t sound happy,” he added in observation.“No, yo

ALEXANo matter what I tried to tell Noelle, she just wouldn’t leave me alone.“I can’t leave you feeling like this, Alexa,” she told me. “I am spending the night with you and that’s right about it,” she insisted.And I decided to indulge her.After she drove me to get lunch just so that I would be in a better mood and then we went back to the office and dished out instructions to my secretary on what to do for the rest of the day, Noelle drove me home.“I think you should consider getting yourself a car, Alexa,” Noelle said as we settled on my couch to binge-watch a show we once saw years back.“Does this show still exist?” I asked, surprised to be seeing it on TV. “Isn’t it old?” I asked again, ignoring Noelle’s statement.“It is old,” she answered.Then she poured us both some wine.“So what are we doing with an old show, Noelle?” I asked her. “When you said we should binge-watch something, I thought it would be something from recent times,” I teased.“I chose this one because I re

ALEXAIt was right after I had trashed the package that Noelle came back out from talking to her father on the phone. “Please, can we just get right to watching the movie without all this debate and analysis?” I asked her.“Sure, at least until I am able to prove my point,” Noelle insisted as we sat down.I wasn’t really concerned about Noelle’s points. I mean, why should I be bothered about what happened to an actress simply because she looked like someone I had recently come to know? Before now, I hadn’t even known the actress’s face.When Noelle and I had seen the show donkey years back, I hadn’t known the actress, only Noelle did, and she never mentioned it again until now.Anyway, we sat down to continue with the show, but halfway through it, my mind kept going back to that chocolate candy. As much as I tried to pretend not to be bothered about it, I knew that it was sitting in my trash.Goodies that I should have been tearing down with my teeth by now, but then again, I just did

ALEXAMark was so polite that I found myself sitting down, but that didn’t mean that I still wasn’t upset with him.“I am listening,” I said tightly.Mark sat down as well and cleared his throat.“Yesterday was hectic for me,” he started, and it pissed me right off, because that was the exact excuse my dad gave for him.Then I had to ask myself again why I was here when I had clearly told my dad that I wasn’t interested in it anymore.“That is very insulting, Mark,” I said angrily.“Excuse me?” Mark said, sounding confused.“I run a company of my own as well, but somehow, you men have managed to make it seem like I am doing nothing because I am a woman,” I started, not bothering to mask my anger.And I was even angrier because I allowed myself to go back on my words.“Alexa, that is not…” Mark tried to chip in and explain, but I wasn’t going to let him have that.“Which is why you sit here, with your egoistic self, telling me that you had a hectic day. So, I didn’t have a hectic day a

MARK“What is wrong with you, Mark?” I asked myself after Alexa walked out of the boardroom without answering my question.Why should I even allow a woman control my feelings this much and cause me to act right out of character? This wasn’t me, and the more I tried to step back, the more I get pulled in.Mr. Silver had helped with the chocolate candies suggestion, narrating how obsessed Alexa had been about it when she was a teenager, and how ecstatic she would be when she got it, and I had to scout the entire city to find it. There wasn’t any store that still sold it, and so I had had to have it sent down on express from another city. I couldn’t even begin to explain the stress that went into that, and now, it just felt like I had wasted all the time and effort. She did get the delivery; I had been assured, and she must have gotten my card.“This is just my tiny way of saying that I am sorry for standing you up earlier today. I hope you get to forgive me and we can have a meeting t
