-Three Weeks Later-
I pushed the door earning a greeting and a smile from the security man before walking briskly to my office. L-CORP was boldly printed almost everywhere.
“Well, let’s get right to it.”
I chuckled burying myself in my work. It wasn’t at all stressful since I actually enjoyed it. My job was simple. It was more like arranging things only said things were files and business deals not to mention it pays extremely well. It was almost like being a waitress only I had an air conditioned office. In between my work, my phone began ringing. I answered glancing at the screen briefly.
? Hi Ethan. I greeted giggling.
? Someone’s in a good mood today. I guess you had an amazing night.
? I guess I did.
I said smiling to myself.
? Well then. I just called to check up on you and I wanted to know if you’re free this evening, we could get dinner or something?
Sighing, I contemplated.
? I know you don’t want to get my hopes up but trust me it’s just dinner. I’m not going to murder you plus I have a surprise for you.
? Really!
I beamed excitedly.
? Yes so are you in?
? Definitely.
? I’ll pick you up around six at your place. Is that good?
? Perfect. Bye Ethan.
I smiled once again and he hung up. Back to my work then.
“Oh come on seriously.”
My inner voice mocked as I dropped the files on my hands.
Taking a deep breath, I reminsced on the events of the past weeks. After that incident at Stefan’s house, I walked away without looking back. A part of me wasn’t convinced I’ll be able to but I actually did. After that, Ethan loaned me some money which I used to get a house and started working immediately. I wore a fake smile to cover up my pain and buried myself in work to distract myself.
There were nights i would loose myself and give up deciding hearing his voice wouldn’t be bad. I’ll pick up the phone determined to call him and just hear his voice. With shaky hands, I’ll force myself to drop it back.
He didn’t call anyways. That’s right, Stefan didn’t call once afterwards. I’m sure he’s planning his wedding and how to live happily ever after. That is if he hasn’t gotten married anyways. As for Ethan, he’s been such a great help not to mention an amazing friend. I controlled myself not to ask of Stefan during our discussion and luckily he doesn’t bring it up either.
“That’s the story. Back to work.”
I said to myself going back to the files.
My watch beeped notifying me of my lunch break so I dropped everything to go get a snack or something. When I returned, I heard voices inside my office. I pushed the door open and I was greeted with the presence of my boss and Stefan Pierce.
“Good afternoon Miss… Grant.”
His eyes twinkled and he actually walked towards me stretching his hand out to shake me. Is he for real right now?
I must be dreaming. There’s no way in hell this is possible.
