(She’s feisty šŸ™‡, he’s rude šŸ˜”)

Episode 5

 

šŸŒ„ Zach šŸŒ…

” Get the fvĀ¢k out of my office and to your office now ” I said to her.

She was in tears but I don’t care. I have gotten what I wanted, that’s all that matters.

” Walk fas-ter and stĀ©p limping like a goat ” I persuaded
She held the wall as a support as she find her way out of my office.

Nons-en-se! I feel so good!

The thought of that br@t Alexa c@mĀ£ into my mind. She has the audacity to talk back at me.

I am wondering why I didn’t do anything to her that moment, maybe reserving it till when we are married .

” What can you do huh? Kill me like a murderer you are? ” That word wouldn’t just leave my mind.

She knows I am a murderer then why did she risk her life accepting to marry me without any second thought .

She seems fearless but I will sure show her that the stubbornness in me can break the wall of Jericho .

I have made up my my mind not to kill her but slowly torture her till she personally quit my marriage with her..

šŸ„ Alexa šŸ„

Seriously?

” Here’s the dress Jane ” I handed her the dress as she jumped up in joy.

” But you know I love this dress so much ” I pouted. I always get admired each time I put on the dress

” I don’t care girlfriend thank you for the gift ” she said nonchalantly. How did I become friends with the lady?

” You’ve collected the dress now can you tell her what to do?” Jenna said glaring at her.

This two are something else.

” Well, I know I am always crazy but you all know how intelligent I am ” she boasted . Geez! Is Jane from this p@rt of the world?

” I know you are brilliant of course ”

” I have a perfect plan that will make Zach stĀ©p taking ciggrette although it might take a long process ”

” What’s the plan?” Jenna and I asked simultaneously

šŸ—ļøšŸ—ļøšŸ—ļøšŸ—ļø

” Good afternoon ” I greeted the receptionist.

” Good afternoon, how may I help you?” She asked staring at me like someone’s who packed faeces on her bĀ©dy and I was f0rƧĀ£d to glance at myself.

Did I look that bad?

” Uhhm, I am here to see your boss ” I said politely, I ain’t have no time for her

She furrowed her eyebrows and frowned

” My boss? ” She asked frowning

” Yes , Zach ” she stared at me without uttering a word like I have mentioned the devil’s name.

” Did you have an appointment with him?” She asked again. Seriously I am getting fed up with her questions. Can’t she just let me in?

” He’s around right? Why not let me in and stĀ©p asking me silly questions?” I said impatiently .

” Excuse me? It’s my duty to know who you are and why you are demanding to see the boss of this company, I think you are done here. Get out or I ask the securities to throw you out ” she commanded furiously.

” I’m sure you are one of his numerous who-res ” wait! I didn’t hear that clearly or do I ? Did she just call me a who-re?

It really amuses me as to what gives her this courage to be talking to me in this manner

I turned back to make sure there was no one at my back. She was referring to me!

” Did you refer to me as a who-re?” I asked as she sm-irked

” No, I was referring to your shadow ”

” Are you insane? Did I look like a who-re to you? What gave you the effrontery to call me names?”

” And you are asking me out of my fiance’s company? ” I said and she froze . She held a surprise look on her face.

” You see, I could have just walked in but I wanted giving you the respect as the receptionist I think you don’t nee-d any ”

” Bet me, you are fired alre-ady ” I threatened. Her face fell as she bec@mĀ£ frightened.

I only said that, I am sure Zach wouldn’t even listen to me .

” The first thing I will do when I get in there is to get you sacked, people like you doesn’t deserve this job. What if I was a business p@rtner? Don’t you think the names you called me might a negative effect on this company?”

” I… I am sorry ma’am p.. plea-se don’t report me, I promise to change. plea-se forgive me ma’am”

” This job is the only source of income to my family, don’t get me fired ple….”

” For talking rudely to my fiancee, you are fired Miss Christine. Out of this building before I murder you ”

We both turned to see Zach standing at the door with armed crossed.

Has he been standing there for long? And wait? He freaking took side with me. Wow! What a day.

” I…am sorry sir, plea-se forgive me ” the girl knelt in tears pleading.

That’s what you get for talking rudely to anyone you see . At least be polite.

Zach picketed his hands coming towards us.
He almost hit the girl when I held his hand staring at the girl who looked frightened..

” Zach!” I called still holding his hand firmly

” Get out now Christine! You fired” he charged towards her again.

What just made him angry now huh? And when did he start caring?

I was the one who was insulted and he’s the one burning with fury .

” Zach plea-se let her be ” I said calmly.
He glanced at his hand in my hold and relaxed…

” She’s learnt from her mistake, pardon her ” I said .
He stared at me for a while and sighed

” For the very last time Christen, I will crush you the next time this $h!t happens ” he said and walked away f0rƧĀ£fully re-leasing his hand from my grip while I followed suit leaving the girl surprised.

I am surprised myself! I never knew he would listen to me. I mean we just had an argument yesterday.

He entered his office and ban-ged the door closed on me. Seriously? Is he going to leave me out here? What the hell?

I thought he was changing, how stupid I am to have thought so.

” Are you seriously going to leave me out here Zach? ” I asked as I hit his office door repeatedly

” Suit yourself out there and enjoy the cool breeze ” he replied and I sighed

” Really? But I c@mĀ£ to see you ”

” What for? Hope you haven’t forgotten we are sworn enemies?”

” I haven’t forgotten Mr arrogant”

” Well, you can call me all sorts of names. Remember this is my company and I can throw you out of here with just a phone call” such a proud arrogant idiot.

” Zach”

” Don’t think I stood up for you out there because you are a damn fvĀ¢king fiancee, I did that for some personal reasons so don’t let it get to you ”

” Did I beg you to fight for me? Why are you so full of yourself Zach?” I asked frustrated.

He wouldn’t even let me enter so how will everything happen?
He’s such a pain in the as-s

” You want to come in right? ” He asked

” Of course, that’s why I am here”

” Then you have to knock like an employee ”

Is he serious? I definitely have a company to run too so why will he give me stupid orders?

I wish I can give him a resounding sl@p right now . He’s so annoying!

Sighing for the hundredth time, I gently knocked on the door.
Not that I have any option right now…

” Good! Come in, the door is opened ” geez! I am so going to kill this guy one of this days seriously.

How dare he pl@ya tiring game with me? The door was opened a this while because I didn’t hear him walk to the door

I opened the door to see him rolling on his chair with a satisfied grin on his face with a Shisha pot on his desk as he smoke from it. Damnit ! Even in the office too? I quic-kly brou-ght out my facemask and cover my nose.

Will I be able to continue with this? As

” Idiot ” I muttered and he chuckled

I hope everything works out as Jane said.

Episode 6

šŸŒ„ Zach šŸŒ…

I sm-irked at her as she took a sit opposite me.

What did she come here for in the first place?

” Why are you here?” I asked coldly.

” I am not here to exchange words with you Zach, I don’t have time for peac0cks like you that bark like a dog all the time ”

Really? So I am a peac0ckand at the same time a dog.
This lady is pissing me off so much.

” I am restraining myself from strangling you right now Alexa, did you come here to insult me or something else? ” I flared.

I am sure my eyes are darkened. I have tried so ha-rd to make her afraid of me but I think that makes her gain my confidence in getting on my nerves each pas-sing seconds.

” You should have done it and not restrained yourself anyways, that’s not why I am here ” she shrugged smilling wi-dely at me.

Gosh! She looks so ugly, even when she’s into money, she still isn’t beautiful. Yuck! She’s disgusting!

” Then why the hell are you here?”

” Calm down Zach, it’s just me and you in this office” she said calmly.
What’s wrong with her?one time she’s calm and the next thing she turns the opposite.

” I have loads of work to do so you might excuse me if you don’t have anything to say ” I said dropping the ciggrette on the floor before matching it with me leg.

My Dad knows I am like this before he handed me the company so what?

” Is the smoke from the ciggrette not disturbing you? ” She blurted out of a blue moon. Why is she asking such a question?

” What sort of stupid question is that?” I said to her.
I don’t really know but does the smoke disturb me?

” I just asked a simple question that deserves just an answer Zach, don’t call me stupid ” she glared.

” When has my life become a priority to you? ”

šŸ„ Alexa šŸ„

” When has my life becomes a priority to you?” He asked and I sighed inwardly. He’s such a tough guy who will never give in easily but I am determined to stĀ©p him from smoking not because I care but because of myself.

I don’t really care if he dies of lung cancer or anything. In fact, I will be very happy that a problem is lifted off me.

” Since the day you accepted me as your fiancee ” I said to him and he chuckled dryly. What’s funny huh?

” I accepted because of my mother and a first and last thing I will do for my Dad so get that into your thick skull that I didn’t agree to that willingly ” he snapped angrily.

I am trying ha-rd not to run out of here right now. Is he that angry about this whole marriage issue?

” I fvĀ¢king don’t want you Alexa ” he yelled as he ban-ged the desk ma-king flin-ch.

Did he really think he can get me emotional? Never! I had enough from guys .

” Neither do I want you Zach, I accepted because I had no option. If there’s anything I can do, I will do to free myself from this bondage ” I snapped back.

” So I am now a bondage right? Good! Get out of my office ” he snapped his f!ngersangrily and I remain rooted on the chair ma-king no move to stand .

Not until I accomplish a step one, or do I nee-d to calm down? There’s only one head on the nĀ£Ā¢k right?

” Zach chill ”

” Don’t tell me to chill Alexa I said out ”

” Fine, I think I am sorry” I muttered . I am apologizing because of all this, he won’t get away with this I promise.

” You think?”

” I am sorry Zach ” I replied infuriated. A wicked smile appeared on his face and I scoffed.

” Good! I am glad you apologized” grumpy idiot.

I breathed out trying not to lash out at him right now.

” I was saying…..”

” You are nobĀ©dy to ask me that question Alexa, why does it bother you if the smoke disturbs me or not? ” He cuts in

” But don’t you think it will affect your lung? You are putting your life at a great risk Zach. What if you develop leukemia? Lung cancer? Kidney failure? ”

” Have you ever thought about that? You might even die in the process. Then what becomes of your poor mom who love you so much? And your Dad too?” I asked and he kept mute.

Perfect! He didn’t say a word and that gave me the opportunity to continue

” There are some degenerative illness that smokers can never avoid, did you want to contact any of that? ”

” I know you smoke virtually everyday, have you ever tried staying a day without it to see how refreshed you will feel? You will be more happier than you are trust me ”

” You know…..”

” Enough of the sermon Alexa ” he cuts me off. I glanced at him and saw that what I said really got to him.

He just cuts me off calmly without shouting.

šŸŒ… Zach šŸŒ„

” And lastly before I leave” she said and paused

” If you can stĀ©p smoking, I will respect your orders and obey you forever ” she said, stood up and headed to the door..

I knew smoking was bad but I never thought of the side effect. Its like she just hit me with a strong weapon .

” Have a wonderful day Zach”she said and left not without giving me a smile …

My heart began beating in fear. What if I have any of this diseases?

” There are some illness a smoker can never avoid ” her words repla-yed in my ear . It was so loud and clear that it imprinted a great fear in me.

I don’t want to die, not now at least.
I was engulfed in fear.

How come I never thought about it? I smoke for the plea-sure of it. I derive joy from it not knowing it might have a side effect on me.

I don’t care if she will change or not. All I want is to be okay for myself.

I took my car keys and rushed out immediatetly.

I nee-d a wi-der examining to tackle any situation in my system.

And maybe I will try to stĀ©p smoking regularly. I can’t just stĀ©p it but I will try.

And for Alexa? This doesn’t make me like her either. I still don’t like her and will I ever do? Never!
