2: The mysterious boss!

Stella's point of view continues...

I rubbed my eyes vigorously several times to make sure whether it was him or not, while he stood there leaning against the glass window smirking at me deviously. “You are not hallucinating me Miss Miller. Stop rubbing your eyes" My stomach cramps with desirous feelings as he walked towards me taking a seat in the adjacent chair rather than sitting in his own.

Words were like sleeping inside my mouth not ready to escape, my throat had eventually gone dry while eyes could not let the sight of him go away. It seemed like he will disappear if I even try to blink my eyes. After few seconds tear drops started appearing in the corner of my eyes since I was torturing them not blinking.

“Ughh you girls!" I heard his voice as he removed his handkerchief from the left pocket of his coat, he lent in near me wiping away my tears that were going to fall down. “Drink this water and do blink your eyes… I told you already I am not your hallucination I am for real… Want to see? See." He chipped locking the hair strands behind my right ear, our faces were really close that I could listen to his heart beats when his hot breaths hit my cheek.

I looked away as the telephone kept on his table rung. He swiftly rose reaching for the received.

“ Ohh Amy, I already told you turn them down… I don’t want to give my deal to the people who doesn’t even know how to impress me. You know she was disgusting!" I incredulously stared him with confusion written all over my face. Which sort of impression was he taking about? And who could be the She? I nod my head negatively trying to maintain a straight face. “ Yeah… I will see after that meeting. Sure"

Turning towards me he sat in his chair asking for my file. “ I’ve heard a lot about you Miss Miller, if I am not wrong than you have won the youngest desingers award last year, haven’t you?" I opened my mouth to reply when another question came.

"Ohh you were called by the Vicia faba firm my rival and equally famous brand! May I know what made you come here, miss Miller?" He closed my file, his fingers played with his pen as he waited for my answer.

“Umm Sir who doesn’t know you and your achievements, during the years of the course I have always wished to work under you. There is no Hollywood celebrity left who did not wear your designed attires! Your brand comes first in the fashion industry, it will be an honour for me to work as your employee" His bright smile had somewhere conveyed me that I was selected but then also I waited for his answer.

Whereas he was really impressed with my biased answer. “ hmm I must appreciate your words miss Miller! You could have been a good politician if not a designer." I bit my tongue nervously getting caught but that was true.

I have been dreaming to be a part of this leading brand. “ Coming to your achievements and the job I would say... Your talent deserves appreciation and I would be happy to hire you." Crossing my fingers to hear an answer of my interest I keenly and hopefully grimaced his face while holding my heart. “Who would not want a talented and energetic worker like you? Your talent can take us on other level of success. Miss Miller, you are selected however not for the assistant designer’s post but the lead designer, congratulations! "

I was for a moment stilled, I couldn’t believe on my own ears. Did I just listen him giving me the lead designer’s Post? I was too inexperienced to be one, does that mean I will be near him as long as I am in the office building and this firm.

Ohh Jesus this was unanticipating!!!

“ Thank you so much sir, I assure you I’ll try to give my best" I replied while he just smiled at me with a sly smirk, he should be a hero if not a boss, he is perfect.

“My assistant will give you all the necessary instructions and also the files of the design we are working now on. There are some defects in the designs I want you to come with innovative ideas and mend those designs okay" He got busy with his lap top while I stood up to leave, but before I could take q step forward towards the door he huskily exclaimed.

“Did I ask you to leave miss Miller?" I quickly turned around watching him look different, his eyes bore into mine soo dangerously that for a second my heart skipped. “ Did I tell you to leave!" He shouted this time making me jump in fear.

“ I am.. I am sorry sir, I.. I thought I should take your leave" I fumbled as he rose from his chair, with quick steps he approached me.

“ Never leave my cabin unless I don’t tell you to, I hate people who disobey me!" Suddenly his eyes grew darker making me feel uncomfortable under his gaze, his voice sounded so possessive and claiming.

I adjusted my pencil skirt while he place has hand behind me on the wall, I have not realised we were now standing against the wall. “ You are not supposed to leave until I say, is that clear to you miss Miller?" I quickly yet slowly nodded my head in yes bowing my head down having no courage to match his eyes.

“ You are joining from today only, go back to the receptionist she will tell you where to go, and make sure next time you obey me okay! You may leave now “… He removed his hand from the wall taking few steps backwards while I stood straight fidgeting with my file. When I looked at his face, he seemed the same calm and rational like the way he was fifteen minutes ago.

I quickly pushed the door running out of it while he kept standing there. On my way towards the reception I realised a pair of finely dressed women staring me unbelievably when few words hit my ears from their whispers.

"See she is the one, boss has selected her this time. I will pray to the lord to give her patience"

Passing the receptionist a chaste grin I moved ahead while my mind wondered, What does that mean???
