Diana,be quick. You'll be late to school. Chloe shouted as she sets the table for breakfast.
Coming up,she echoed back. A few minutes later little four year old Diana came out and sat for breakfast.
Be quick,we can't afford to miss the bus. Chloe walked into her room. Today is her interview at Craig's Tech Company as a marketing specialist. Inhaling deeply,she prayed. I've prepared fur weeks for this interview. Let me be picked.
Moments later,Chloe and Diana boarded a bus then dropped Diana at school.
Good morning,Chloe smiled at the receptionist. I'm her for my interview.
Good morning Miss. The 20th floor. There's a waiting room there.
Thanks. She headed towards the elevator and entered it.
Where to pls.
Oh,20th floor.
Ding!. The elevator opened. Thank you!.
Holding her credentials tightly she headed to the waiting room.
Few Hours Later,
Miss Chloe.
That's me.
Kindly follow me. The secretary Mandy led her to the conference room.
Chloe entered the conference room and inhaled nervously.
Good morning to you all.
Craig,the CEO turns his back and walks towards his seat.
Take your position,he ordered without looking up and glancing through her files.
So,he raised his head. You're a marketing specialist.
Yes and then the recognition suddenly reframed staring at each other for a while.
Craig!. Chloe said silently. He's the CEO. Suddenly memories of them being together resurfaced through her mind.
Mandy coughed lightly,shall me begin. Noticing the awkward moment.
Unable to breathe well,Craig readjusted himself on his chair. So Miss Chloe,he managed to say. You're a marketing specialist. Tell me more about yourself.
Okay. Trying as much as possible to avoid eye contacts with him. I'm Chloe Henry. I'm 25yrs. I have a first class in marketing and I've wurjed with some many companies helping them to market their products as the lead marketer.....
Craig couldn't help but stare at her. Chloe,Chloe her name on his lips. Damn she has grown more prettier. Moments of them making love resurfaced his mind. How his muscular body caressed her boobs. Oh he groaned silently.
Okay,nice introduction. Feeling uncomfortable,stealing glances and perspiring. So what type of products do you market often and how sure are you that this position is for you.
Umm... I market more of website and I know this is my stuff. The interview continued.
Craig Lawson,the guy she once loved before he broke up with her on a cold night leaving her all alone.
After so many question she got the job.
Smiling and walking towards the elevator,Chloe held her fingers together. She got the job and the pay is okay suddenly her face turned into an angry one. Craig Lawson. I can't believe he's the CEO and my boss. How awful. She hated him more each time his image resurface.
Mommy,little Diana ran towards Chloe her hand spread wide to hug her.
Mommy. Chloe carried her up.
How was school today? Did you learn something new.
Yes Mommy. She folded her hands together and pouted,Mrs Daisy didnt let us watch the television.
Diana,you went to school to learn not to watch the television okay. Let's go home and prepare for dinner.
Yay,waving her hands up in the air.
The next morning,Chloe dropped Diana off and headed to her new workplace.
Craig walking into the conference room and everyone stood up.
Chloe could tell he was staring at her as he walked to his chair.
Everyone sat down back.
Today,he began we have a new marketing specialist. She's joining our team today. She's an expert in marketing products. Stretching his hands towards her,please welcome Chloe Henry.
Everyone applauded as she stood.
Standing up is tough because its feels like I'm stuck to the ground but I managed to. Couldn't help but stare at Craig. He has grown more manly. The lonely years flashed back into her memories making her heart to swell at bit.
Thank you. I'm glad to be a part of this team .
Well then,let's discuss business. There's a new project coming up. A multipurpose robot....
After the meeting at the conference room Chloe headed to her office. I can't believe I own an office here. I got a lot of work to do concerning the Megadriod. Its the newly project coming up.
She sat down in her chair and started work.
Ring. Ring..Ring...
Hello,she said over the phone.
Miss Chloe bring the works you've done so far to my office. I need to inspect it. With that the call ended.
How rude. She gulped down nothing remembering he asked her to come to his office. Carrying her laptop,she left.
Knock.Knock..Knock..
Come in. Entering inside the office she managed not to stare at him. Feeling nervous she carefully dropped the laptop and showed in a slide show.
Craig gulped down nothing as the urge to pin her down and kiss her grew stronger. A hit of guilt filled him remembering how he had left her in the past.
Although he left her but the feelings are still there. He loves her.
Impressive,with this marketing strategy the Megandroid will bring us great sales.
Um.m..m,carefully picking his words would you like to hang out after work.
No,she refused. Seriously Craig hang out. After everything. I think its best to stay apart. Don't try talking to me again. She closed her laptop,carried it and headed for the head.
Chloe,he said softly. Ermm kindly come for the company's dinner if you can't come for mine. We'll be launching Megandroid
No,she screamed in her head. You need to avoid him. He left you in the past leaving you alone. Fine,silently cursing herself for been soft. I'll come. With that she left.
Chloe,she left before he could call her. I'm sorry. I didnt mean to leave you. I was the best to do. Sighing sadly,he started to make preparation for the dinner.
Chloe left work and went to pick Diana from school. Unfortunately,they hadn't gotten home before the rain started.
Mommy,I'm cold.
I'm sorry baby. She wore her jacket for her. She's so wet and the buses are all filled up.
Diana rested her head on her shoulder and slept off. Shivering,the buses does through and splashed water on them.
A Mercedes stopped right in front of them.
A gut came down with an umbrella,Chloe noticing Craig in the car.
What. She said silently. Did he follow her. Miss please kindly enter. Its real cold.
No.
Miss,its my boss's order. Please.
Chloe entered with Diana. Carefully placing Diana down, she sat down beside her.
Where's your house,the chauffeur asked nicely. Chloe described her place for Jack the chauffeur.
Clearing His throat. I didn't know you were married.
Yea I'm she lied. He's abroad.
Puff,he scoffed. What type of man leaves his wife and his child to work abroad.
Hey,don't insult him. Chloe gulped down nothing avoiding his gaze. Only did he know Diana is his daughter. Sadness filled her.
Sorry you're wet. He covered her with his fur coat. He missed her.
Turn right please. Yeah thats my house. Craig stared at the her house.
Jack helped her out because she refused Craig helping her. He carried Diana in and drove off.
Thank you,she shouted.
