Chresanto’s Pov
Ignoring everyone else’s greeting I rushed into my office completely frustrated. I had stayed out all night at Sophie’s hoping she would come out to give an explanation as to what was happening.
I remembered my conversation with Chris before I went over to Sophie’s place.
“How do you two know each other?” I had asked him.“Maybe you should speak to Soph first” He told me while shrugging off his shoulders.
“D*mn it Chris” I ran my hand through my hair frustratedly “Is She the Sophie?” I asked again as my mind suddenly began to recall how he spoke about his ex girlfrie
Chresanto’sA smile laced on my face as Elle approached me with two ice cream in her hand. Unlike what I had expected the camp fire festival was totally fun and took my mind off Sophie and Chris situation.She handed me one of the ice cream when she arrived at where I was and then laced her other hand with mine while she pulled me to the game section.“I didn’t know you could sing” I said to her while we walked slowly.Her gaze met mine with a proud look “I was awesome right?” She asked giggling a little.“You are amazing” I replied sincerely with another smile “How come your parents ne
Sophie’s PovOutside the sun shone perfectly, like it was quarried by God for not shining brightly the day before. The weather seemed clear unlike what the weather app had stated. “Ouch” I winced as my finger involuntarily hit the sharp edge of my dresser, I placed the affected finger in my mouth while I sucked on It lightly.My eyes stopped at the wall clock and I suddenly realized it was past ten “Shit” I cussed silently while I hurriedly tied my hair up in a messy bun, I readjusted my black trouser and my pink top after which I hurriedly wore a black flat while I put around my neck a white cross bag which I had earlier placed on my bed.
Six Years Later.Chresanto’s PovOutside, the sky was gloomy. Heavy clouds hover over it creating a tense atmosphere. It would rain soon.It rumbled softly outside, causing a small chill to run down my spine immediately I stepped out of the plane as I had just arrived New-York.I shrugged it off and made a way to find a taxi. The airport was parked with so many people, some who desired to leave, some who were seeing off a loved one and some with a signed board that showed clearly they came to receive someone.Mom and Dad claimed they were too busy to pick me up, and I didn’t want to disturb Chris since he has the company alread
Sophie’s Pov“Rinaaaaaaaaa” I yelled for what seemed like the fifth time, just as my eyes moved quickly to the wall clock which was hanged at the far top of the wall.I clutched both Rina’s lunch box and her school bag in my left hand while I tried to use my right hand to arrange my hair which already seemed out of place “If you do not come here this minute Rina, I swear I’ll come get you myself” I shouted even more angrily.I had a job interview to meet up with and Rina wasn’t making it any easy for me “Sorry mummy” Rina rushed in while giving her signature puppy face.I sighed while I ruched to the kitchen to ensure the gas was locked “Hope you didn’t forget something?” I asked
Sophie’s PovI spent the whole weekend shopping for new office wears and some flats as I had just one that Gia gifted me a few months back during my project defense.Now the weekend was over and I got even more excited about my new job. Both Rina and I just had breakfast, after clearing the table and promising to do the dishes later I rushed to the mirror to ensure my makeup was intact even though it seemed like I didn’t have any on and my dress was intact.“Rina, your backpack” I scolded Rina who seemed to have left her backpack either in the kitchen or her room.She made an ‘Ohhhhh’ sound while she rushed into the kitchen and then came back in a blink of an eye.&
Chresanto’s PovAs soon as I stepped into my office, my cell phone beeped causing me to pull my eyes away from the file on the desk.“Sir the new employees await you at the conference hall” Josh my secretary reminded me.I had just arrived from the CEO’s breakfast meeting, which was said to be a compulsory meeting for all CEOS. Josh stated it was a grand way of announcing that I was the new CEO of Lightwood Company.I had all weekends to study all about Lightwood Company and I was glad I already had working experience else it would have been hard taking over the company just like dad had stated.“Sir” Jo
Chresanto’s Pov“And what exactly do I have next?” I asked Josh while I stood solely in front of my mirror fighting with the fact that I had refused to get my tie right.It was already past 4pm and as much as I would have loved a first less busy day at work that wasn’t the case. I have had from breakfast to lunch with several investors, share and stock holders and also people who could influence the future of Lightwood.“Dinner with Senator Banko sir and his wife the Minister of finance” Josh told me while he arranged some papers into a certain file.“Details?” I requested for almost pissed, while I removed my tie angrily after several failed attempt to fix it.
Sophie’s Pov“The files Sophie, I instructed they be on alphabetical order” Mrs Perry who was in charge of teaching us all we needed to know about the company said to me in a loud stern voice.“I’m sorry but some of this files were not labeled” I replied.“Then you should haves checked with me first” She shouted again pushing me aside slightly while she arranged the files herself.“Exactly what you should have done” I rolled my eyes while I murmured to myself.I was almost forced to tell her she should just quit if she so much hates her job. She had taken it to vent her frustration upon me and four other new employees that where
