"Dismissed," Dexter closes today's meeting, and everyone except him and I are left behind.Contrary to this morning he's looking rather drained and tired that he leans back in his chair, his legs stretched out as he signs repeatedly."Have you finally decided to talk to me?" He asks without even glancing at me.Nervously I fondle my fingers, constantly looking at him and lowering my eyes the next second."Not at all, o just wanted to know the company status, what's going on, who owns this company, could you at least put what happened this morning aside and talk to me, this is business we're talking about, we're at work," I bluntly tell him.Dexter flinches, I don't know why, but he did, and that bothers me, especially while he's staring at me with those angry eyes of his as if he were aiming to murder me.He growls faintly before he sits up, his eyes staring away from mine and into a corner which confuses me, considering the fact that between the both of us, it should be I who's furio

"You're crazy," he yells into my face, pushing my hands away from blocking both sides of his chair.Haiz!He has no idea just how much thought and brain work I put into this to come up with a good idea."Just trust me, it'll work," I say, adding pressure to my words, but he shuts me up with his left hand and I have no other option than to keep quiet.Dexter maintains some silence, and I wait by a corner giving him some time to think.A minute p*ss…Two minutes goes by…Before I could realise it, it's been ten minutes and he's still not said anything other than stare into a blank space and caressing his temple."Ugh!" Dexter groans, his hand finally reaching for his phone."Have those in the project planning community come to the meeting room within the next five minutes," he orders before hanging up.I'm beyond delighted to see that he could trust me this much. I'm so happy that I could hug him but Dexter keeps glaring at me.As if relieved he lays back in his chair and after a few se

I couldn't waste any more time as soon as the next day arrived, I had to report to Dexter everything that had happened till now.Unlike my promise to return home last night, I slept out with Hannah, and the result was fifty-eight missed calls from Dexter.It would have been fifty-nine but I picked up the last one and my ears were almost destroyed by his scolding over the phone."Where are you right now?" He asks, despite the report from his men which states that I was far from home and at a hotel.I'm pretty certain he got that message because I was present and asked his men to personally call Dexter before me and tell him that I wasn't returning last night.It was immediately after reporting to Dexter that he sort of ended my life with non-stop calls even while knowing that I was refusing to pick up the call."I told you, I'm in a hotel, I'm doing my best so I can leave for work this morning. I'll meet you there so you have nothing to worry about," I tell him while putting on my make

"Oh my goodness," I yell with a jump after nearly experiencing a heart attack, missing a step which causes my leg to wobble from instability."Woah!"The whole world was going in circles as I grabbed hold of whatever was within my reach, refusing to go down alone.I feel my leg hit something behind as I fall, but my landing feels rather weird as I bounce repeatedly upon something, Just as I'm about to celebrate my save, I see my life flash before my eyes as Dexter comes falling right upon me.Perhaps the first event was a mistake for the rest of us, but this time, it is I who's pulling on tightly to his shirt and causing him to fall.Quickly I turn my face towards the side to at last spare my face when he comes crashing upon me but after a while of waiting, nothing happens."You can open your eyes now, I'm not going to bite," I hear Dexter say and obediently open my eyes.Right above me is Dexter supporting himself from falling with his arms above my head on both sides.This is quite

It's quiet!Staying seated in one position next to the person who invited me and is yet staying awkwardly quiet is killing me.Dexter has his eyes on the road, and I'm sitting right next to this man who's pretending I don't exist after shoving me in.I can't seem to understand him, one moment it feels as though he wants to talk and the next moment we're driving for over an hour in complete silence.Three times!I've sighed three times, yes, it's grown completely awkward to the point where I'm counting my sigh.I can't possibly stay silent all through when I'm the one who's been forced to tag along so I decided to break the silence.At first, I stared at Dexter who was dead serious about driving and then at the road, before shrugging."What do you want from me, Dexter?"The car goes silent once again and I can hear the sound of the car smoothly zooming down the free road."Your question is a bit complex to understand, do you mind rephrasing that?" He asks after a moment of silence.All
