Meant to beĀ Ā Ā 8. SEDUCING?
LUCYI stood there without blinking. I saw someone sitting at my desk.What is he doing? I know I'm getting fired but he should have called me to his cabin to tell him that instead of here, in front of everyone.I cleared my throat. ''Sir?''He snapped out of whatever he was thinking and stood up.''Oh hey Lucy, I actually came to tell you to pack your things, but it seems like you have already ..'' Mr. Agosti trailed off, glancing at my things, which were perfectly packed.I gave him an awkward smile. What should I say? That I already expected this? My nose started to itch, indicating that my eyes were going to sting.I pinched the tip of my nose before it was too late. Gosh, what's wrong with me? Why am I so disappointed? What did I expect? That I finally got a chance to experience all the lovey-dovey stuff? It's just a kiss! Not a big deal!''I just uh.. expected this would happen sir. Should I just take my things and go or? Are there any formalities?''''No, no. I'll call someone

LUCY''Umm.. You there?'' I asked, waving my hand in front of her face.She blinked a few times before composing herself.''Why do you want to know about them? Is it because they are your company's rivals?''''No, it has nothing to do with the company, it's more complicated. Actually, why don't you have my number? It's too late now, give me a call when you are free!'' I said, giving her my card.She looked hesitant, but took it with a nod.''Thanks for the ride Lucy''''No problem''....''Who do you think is best?'' Mr. Hottie asked, placing some pictures on his desk.''We need to select one of them for our new product, I'm counting on you.'' He went back to signing his files after pushing them towards me.I sat in front of him and went through the pictures. There are some new and some are top models.After going through their social media accounts and some websites, I selected a new model. She is 5.8ft tall, blonde and has light green eyes.Her name is Elvira D'Oro and I think sh

LUCY''What's your name again?''I'm starting to despise elevators.''Lucy Vitale'' I said, giving her a forced smile.She didn't even look my way or atleast nod her head. She is so engrossed in her mobile.''Okay Lucy, you can go. I'll manage from here.'' She said as we stepped out.''Um, I'm actually joining you guys for lunch.'' This is getting awkward.''Oh'' she cleared her throat and continued. '' Can you not join us? I want to talk to him privately ''The nerve of this girl! Uff!''I can't do that, Ms. D'Oro. I wouldn't have joined if he hadn't asked me to and your manager should have mentioned the word privately when he asked me'' I said, smiling at her sweetly.''Take your seat Ms. D'Oro, I'll be back in a minute '' I said to her when we reached the dining hall and went out.I don't want to be alone in the same room as her. I might smack her because of my insecurity.What's wrong with me?I saw Mr. Hottie came out of his private elevator and went near him.''Ms. D'Oro is insi

LUCYAfter speaking with Ria last night, we decided to meet for lunch today.So here I am at a restaurant near my office waiting for her, but she is late.My break time is almost over and I don't know if I want to wait any longer. Because I just took the afternoon off yesterday because of Sam and I didn't want to irk Mr.Hottie.Speaking of Hottie, he looked extra hot today.I sighed, dreamily remembering him.As I was about to get up, I spotted Ria coming towards me.''sorry I'm late'' She apologized and sat in front of me.Okay, now should I tell her that I want to go? She looks like she ran a marathon to get here though.''It's OK, but my break is over, Ria. I'm afraid I can't talk to you right now.'' I said, looking at my watch.I'm already 10mins late.''O-Oh'' she looked like a sad puppy when she said that.I don't know what to do right now. Wasn't it me who asked for her help? I know that it's her fault that she came late, but since I need her.. I'm going to take an off, officia
Meant to beĀ Ā Ā 12. ARGUMENTS
ALEX''I'm going to invite Lucy and Nat to my birthday party''''Don't you fucking dare Sam'' Monica said, glaring at her.Here we go again!''Why the fuck you are so against it, Monica?'' Sam asked, glaring back.''Yeah, why?'' I kicked Rocco's leg when he asked that.One thing I got to know from years of friendship is that, never, I repeat, never get in the middle of a girl's argument.Thankfully, they are both busy glaring at each other to notice us.We do this shit twice or thrice a month according to our schedules. This time it's my place. I live in a separate house, apart from my family.When I say family, it means the whole family.My grandmother died before I was born, so it's just my grandpa Adriano, his first son, a.k.a my father Gilbert, his second son Gino, my uncle and his wife Melissa, along with their daughter Karina, that's our grandma's name, live in our family house, but I moved out as soon as I joined college.His third and precious child, my aunt Giada and her husb
Meant to beĀ Ā Ā 13. BULLIES AND FIGHTS
LUCY''Didn't I tell you to complain to your teacher when someone bullies you? Then why did you hit him Jay?'' I'm furious to see him like this. His left eye was slightly swollen, his cheeks and knuckles were bruised.God!!! It must hurt a lot.''I-It was me who hit him first, Mamma. When he tried to hit me back, Jay came in front of me and this happened. I'm so s-sorry Mamma, I-I'll not do this again! I-I P-Promise!'' Vicky said, his voice cracked at the end, making me want to cry all over again.But I need to be strong! If I cry, he will cry too.''Did you cry Mom?'' Jay asked, placing his hand over my cheek. He opened his mouth for the first time since I came.I took his hand and squeezed it lightly.''No, I didn't and why is that only you two are here?'' I frowned, looking at him and Vicky.''Ma'am went to take a call, it's just been 10 mins mom. Don't stress out!'' I nodded and looked at Vicky.''Now tell me, why did you hit that boy in the first place!'' But he shook his head.I
Meant to beĀ Ā Ā 14. BIRTHDAY PARTY
LUCY ''How is everything Ria?'' I asked her on the phone while going through my wardrobe. Sam invited me and Nat to her birthday party! She even asked me to bring the kids. I still don't know how she knows about Jay and Vicky. I'm assuming it's either Mr. Agosti or Mr.Ganovese was the one who told her. Yeah, he is not Hottie anymore. It's been more than a week since he came to my home. Things were awkward afterwards. I tried to speak to him many times during office hours, but he chose to ignore me. I was so hurt that I almost cried! So, now back to Ria. As we planned, I booked her a room in NewView! She is staying there from today for two weeks. Hope she finds something against Moretti's! ''Everything is okay. The room is so beautiful! The view from the balcony is awesome.'' She sounds excited. ''I'm glad you like it! But please be careful, if you ever have the slightest doubt that you are in danger, just run from there, OK?'' ''Okayyy'' she said in a sing-song voice. I rolle
Meant to beĀ Ā Ā 15. LIKE A DATE!?
LUCY I hissed as soon as he slammed me against the door. "What the hell do you think you are doing?" ''I should be the one asking that!! What the hell do you think you are doing out there, huh? Trying to make me jealousā" ''Oh please, I know you don't have any kind of feelings towards me for you to be jealous, unlike what you said in my apartmentā and that's exactly what I told your cousin too. So, why don't you save 'I'm your boss and your just my employee' speech to yourself ? That could save both of us a lot of time '' I snapped and looked at the wall to my left. He sighed, releasing me from his grip. He ran his fingers through his hair, licking his dry lips. '' Lucyā '' He started to say something but stopped placing his hands on his hips and sighed. I folded my arms and raised my eyebrows, looking at him in disbelief. He doesn't even have an explanation? I scoffed and muttered 'unbelievable'. I was about to turn around but he pulled me into a hug, making me shriek unlady
