Tempted by the CEO
I’ve ignored every call from him, every of his messages and even almost blocked him from getting in contact with me but it stopped, thankfully.
The elevator door dings, pulling apart to allow me out of it. I step out and just like that, I can see old naive me standing by that door, hoping and waiting for the man I loved to laugh and tell me ‘it’s a joke! April fool even if it isn’t April. Anything but definitely not what I heard.
I blink back the tears threatening to fall down my cheeks, thankful no one is here to see me make a total fool of myself. 'Just hold it together for some minutes Lana, you can do it.' I mutter like a chant, willing my legs to walk.
