ARROGANCE?
Episode 4
Jordan’s POV
Did I sleep??? Of course not… Every time I tried closing my eyes I could see that crazy mud girl throw mud at me… She was taking over my thoughts and I didn’t like it one bit…
As if that wasn’t enough, I had alot of work at the office because yesterday I was busy thinking of ways to get back at her…
No girl ever drove me nuts like that girl did… Her attitude was the keros£ne, I was the matchbox and very time we collided she bec@m£ the fire…
I was impatiently waiting for Carol our housemanager to text me when the crazy mud girl arrived…
I was walking in my room in circles looking at my phone after every seconds…I was going crazy and I was helpless
. All I wanted was give her my piece of mind and show her who was the boss…
Finally Carol called, the crazy mud girl was in the kitchen. I ran out of my room like the house on fire only to bu-mp at her and have coffee spilled all over my expensive suit….
“Can you check you are okay??? I wanna get back to work…” She rolled her eyes…
“You spilled coffee on me…”
“You pushed me in the mud…”
“You know you should tell me if you are fine…You know you arrogant men love to create a volcano out of an anthill…”
“I am sure it’s not said like that….”
“Okay Mr know it all” She glared at me with annoyance…
I thought I would give her a piece of my mind but there I was staring at her like a fool….
“I am……”
She just left even before I finished my s£ntence, she was so rude…
In the boardroom, yes I was in the meeting but my mind was elsewhere… I could hear people talk but I couldn’t tell exactly what they were saying…
“Mr Marcias, what do you think about the proposal???” Mr Kimati asked getting me off guard..
“I think it’s a good idea but I will nee-d you in my office later.We nee-d to talk more about this proposal…” I smiled and walked out of the boardroom…
. I nee-ded to focus but I couldn’t…
“Jordan Marcias stressed….this is???” My as-sistant walked in without knocking…
“Excuse me sir????”
“Can’t you see I am busy????”
“But Mr Fran…..”
“I don’t care…You are fired. I can’t work with a girl who doesn’t have manners…” I thun-dered ma-king the poor girl flin-ch.. I could see tears balancing in her eyes but I didn’t care… She didn’t have manners and that’s all that mattered…
“Jordan, that was mean…” Sebastian shook his head when I slammed the door…
“She doesn’t have manners but back to my story…I wish you meet this crazy mud girl…”
“She even has a pet name, interesting….”
“No, she is irritating and I can’t stand her…” I could feel my blood heat up…” She first insults me infront of my siblings then spills coffee on my Italian suit and she doesn’t say sorry…” I sl@pped the table in fury…
“I wanna make her pay for humiliating me…I wanna strangle her and show her who is the boss…” I was so mad that I hadn’t realised I had clenched my fists so ha-rd …
I inhaled de-eply trying to control my anger,” I want her to beg for mercy. I want her to respect me..”
“Okay calm down, Jordan… I don’t think it’s that bad..” Sebastian poured me some whisky, “Don’t be dramatic, you just being mad because she doesn’t worsh!pyou..”
“I wish you see the anger in her eyes, her attitude…Damn brother, you are gonna get scared…” I gulped down the content in the glas-s and threw it at the wall…
“I be…..” Again the financial manager balged in my office without knocking..
“What’s wrong with everyone today???” I yelled lifting my hands up in the air, “Can’t you knock???”
“But sir????”
“Get out…” I ordered…
“It’s about the audit report you asked for…”
“Get out or you gonna lose your job…” I pushed him out and slammed the door…
“I think you should go home…You are a h0t mess and I won’t let you turn this company upside down…” Sebastian suggested his hand on my shoulder…
“Okay…”
Sebastian has been my best friend since I could remember. Our parents were best of friends and that made us automatically friends…
Sadly when we got at the parking lot, Jackson and the car wasn’t there… I had to wait for him for five minutes something I never did before… There was a negative shift in my life and I didn’t like it..
“Where have you been???” I thun-dered the moment he arrived…
“I am sorry but I had to drive Jaxon’s new designer around town to pick up some fabrics…”
“But you are my driver….”
“All the other drivers were busy..Alex was driving to mum to the spa.Today is your grandmother’s check up day so Sam went with her. It’s Albert’s day off so I was the only one available..”
“Okay open the door, my feet are hurting…” He nodded opening the door for me…
“You see, she is taking over. Now I have to wait for my driver as he drives her around..” I stated in a worried tone…
“Just calm down, you heard the driver..He was the only one available…” Sebastian made me feel like she was taking her side and I didn’t like it at all..
*******
I was restless for Sebastian to meet the crazy mud girl since I knew after the meet up he would hate her as much as I did…
“Let’s see if you will have the same opinion about her when you meet her…” I got out of the car before the driver could get the door for me…
“Come on you acting crazy…” Sebastian commented as we walked inside the house..
“Hey, where is the new fashion designer???” I asked the maid who was dusting off the paintings…
“She is at the kitchen with Mr Mason..” She stammered…
“Okay, get back to what you were doing…”
I hurriedly walked into the kitchen, Sebastian behind me trying to catch up with my fast pace.
“Come on Brother, she is just a girl…” He said…
When we got to the kitchen, Mason was seated on t©p of the counter and her leaning on the counter beside him… She looked happy, herl-ips were outstretched in a perfect smile.
She wasn’t gloomy at all and for the first time I realised how beautiful she looked when she smiled…
I was lost in looking at her that I hadn’t realised that Sebastian was waving at my face..
“Dude where did you go???”
“Eeee…..mmmmmhh….She is the one…” I pointed at her…
“Hey guys???” I wasn’t supposed to be kind but I couldn’t st©p myself and as usual only Mason responded…
“Sebastian??” The crazy mud girl called out running towards my best friend…
“Kims, how are you doing???” Sebastian enfolded her in a hvg and there I was confused on what had just happened…
“What are you doing here???” Sebastian asked after she pu-ll-ed back…
“I am working on Jaxon’s designs for his albu-m launch…” She smiled..
“Wow!!! He made the perfect choice…Talking of designs, did you get your invitation card to the fashion show this weekend???”
“Yes Seb with your yummy chocolates…”
“You can bring your plus one, David perhaps or even Brian…” Sebastian tea-sed her and I could see the glow on her face fade away…
“I will definitely bring someone…”
When I realised that what I wanted to be an awful meeting was turning into a reunion, I cleared my throat….
“Oooh sorry bro, this is Ciara Kimani.. My good friend..She was my intern and trust me she does a very good job..I really miss her working for me…” Sebastian complimented and I could feel insides churn with anger.
“And Kims I bet you have met…..” Before Sebastian could finish talking she bu-tted in, “I know Jordan. So no nee-d of introductions..” She forcibly smiled at me before turning back to Sebastian,” Seb see you at the Fashion show…”
She walked away…
“Seb, how can you ignore your small brother???” Mason complained hvgging him..
“Sorry Ciara had my attention..So how is your art work coming along???”
“It’s okay…Can’t complain..”
“Why was Ciara in the kitchen??? I thought workers were not allowed to hang around the main house…” I begun being dramatic..
“Chill Jordan. Ciara is a friend and friends are allowed in the main house. I will go back doing my thing before you affect me with your negativity…” He also walked away giving me the chance to svçkexplanations out of my bestfriend…
“What was that??? I didn’t plan for a reunion…” I literally wanted to slit his throat..
“I didn’t expect her to be Kims..Yes she might have some attitude but she is a good girl…Don’t let your arrogance could your judgement..”
“I also want an invite to the fashion show…”
“I thought you hated them…” Sebastian looked at me surprised…
“Don’t question me…”
“Okay,” He lifted his hands up in surrender, “You are my friend and you are definitely welcomed..”
“Good.”
“I will go back to work, I have a big fashion show this weekend..”
Sebastian ran a fashion company which his target customers were teenage girls, campus ladies and independent business woman. At first I thought his business plan was a joke until I saw the rise in sales in every year, the awards he has won and the h0t girls that work there….
I loved how pas-sionate he was about his job, how he would create fashion out of anything but I am not a fan of it. I hated those silly fashion shows but this fashion show was different because I would find out more about the crazy mud girl and bring her down…
Poor me, I tried working and focusing in my home office but nothing… I went to the gym but I had no energy to even lift a drum bell all I wanted was to stalk her…
There I was following her around like a crazy obsessed ex…
“Hey, what are you doing in the kitchen???”
Not again, how was I enjoying being insulted. Because that was definitely going to happen..
“Dah, ma-king coffee…”
“You know workers are not allowed to be in the kitchen or anywhere around the main house..”
“You love getting on my nerves, don’t you???”
“Did Jaxon not tell you the house rules????”
“Take the coffee,” She placed it on my che-st and like a fool I held onto the cu-p.
“Drink it, maybe it will help you calm your nerves” She walked away brushing our shoulders..
Dang it, I scre-wed it again…Why do I do that???
I had had enough for the day and it was time I got my ego resto-red and so I called Emma over..
She was a model who I couldn’t remember where I meet her from. Was it from business p@rty, grand opening of something, during a business trip???? I DON’T KNOW!!!!..
Back to her, Emma was always there when I nee-ded someone to tell me I was the best, I was a god , I was every girl’s dream guy and many others… I knew she was there for the hvge ti-ps I gave her but I didn’t care as long as she made me feel like a man….In charge and very respected…
When she arrived, I hvgged and held her hand so ti-ght… I wanted so bad to punish thosel-ips of hers but we were rudely interrupted…
One moment she was beside me and the other one she was busy hvgging the crazy mud girl…
“Ciara, do you remember me??? I was among your models when you designed dresses for Jellie Asosi backstage singers…”
Emma tried so ha-rd to embarras-s herself while Ciara just gave her a plain look…
“Okay..”
“I really wanna work with you again??? You are my role model you know…At 23 and you are living your dreams….”
“Girl…”
“Its Emma for you..”
“Okay Emma, nice to meet you but I have to go…” And like that she walked past her like nothing had happened and the girl walked right back beside me looking all dull..
“Don’t worry, you can always find another role model…”
“I want her!!!” She spoke in a low authoritative voice before running upstairs to my room..
Like c’mon does everyone adore this girl, she is literally nothing….
