Chapter-6

May. POV.

After that day I started working on the designs required my the company. Every designer has their own trademark and luckily for me I never did that in my previous competitions which I won on my sister's behalf. Ironically me being the topper couldn't win the competition and he being not even able to win the classes still she could win the glory for the university.

I think my sister knew about my emotions. There is no way she would have ignored it but I think she chose not to care as she got all the love and attention at the expense of others and it didn't matter to her that how many tears I have shed.

That's why I am not close to my sister. I don't think that I have been talked to her because for me she is the cause of my sufferings but I never resented her for it as it is human nature but she could have shared a bit of love with me then everything would be the best but she smchose to be slefish and all the decisions which my family took is the sole reason I don't want to be with them and is now happily away from them.

After taking one full week on completing the designs I submitted it to the company and then I was called to the boss's office. It is my first time seeing the boss as the boss of our company usually stays lowkey and no one has ever seen his face and he rearky attends the events. I was not sure that why I was being called but I guess it is about the designs. So I reached his office after being led by his beautiful secretary. I knocked on the office door and the boss let me enter. When I entered the office I saw Alexander sitting on the boss chair looking at me smiling . To say I was shocked is an understatement. Never in my dreams would I have known that the person who passed out on me is my boss. I awkwardly waved at home and he told me to sit down. Then he sat up straight and said

"Anaya ,Right. I want to say thank you to you for that day. It was wrong for me to leave without a thanks.So ,thank You Anaya ."

I don't know but the way he said my name is so beautiful. I have never heard anyone calling my name in such a seductive manner. I was lost into his grey eyes but then sanity brought me back and I said

"Never mind. You were actually passed out so there is no way you could have said thanks to us and by the way you friend Andrew already said thanks. So there is no need. It is our duty to help the one in need. So what exactly happened that day because I heard something else ."

"Actually I was drugged by someone. So I tried to enter the washroom but then the effect of drug took over and then you saw me and rest happened. Andrew lied to protect me someone leaked what happened and now that person has been warned. I am sorry for the trouble that day.  " He said.

"It's okay. And why did you actually called me?"

I asked him.

Then he said 

"Oh my bad!. These are the designs which I have selected . I wanted your opinion on them. I know this is not your work but I have seen your resume and your work and you are the best we have got . "

I looked at him embarrassingly from the praise I just received and then took the file and looked at the designs. All the designs were the best and they perfectly showcased the nature of the designer and their creativity. I was mesmerized by the designs . 

I pointed out some things and he listened to me carefully. He didn't look like a boss but more like a friendly colleague. We kept on talking about the designs and theme. In between his secretary came with the lunch and then I realised that it was the luch time and the boss asked me to join him . I was hesitant at first but his secretary aslo persuaded me and together we had lunch. It was peaceful and bit worrisome as I didn't want the boss to have bad impression on me. So I tried as elegantly as possible to eat the food. After the food we again went on discussion. After the discussions and suggestions were done I took my leave and suprisingly Alexander came to open the door for me like a gentleman. I know that by now my cheeks would have been red. I thanked him and left the office but on the way I could feel his gaze on me and I don't know but It made me blush. I also saw his secretary Jasmine on the way smiling at me which was weird but I went on my way to my home thinking about the boss which I should not.
