Aiva lips fell agape and she blinked rapidly, staring and re-staring at the figure she just poured coffee onto.
Thousand gasp came and she could feel others gaze at her in shock and as well murmuring the word that she is doomed. She looked back at him, the dress he wore, the white silver watch that is now drained. His white smooth skin that is burning and they suit that is stained.
Is he the C.E.O?
Would he just fire her?
'You are fired!' he would have screamed but looking at her face, the only words that escape from his lips was 'You!'
'You… You….' He stammered while others stared curiously, waiting for him to complete his statement. 'Are fired.' His gaze scanned her entire body and it land on her ID card.
'Aiva Alberto, intern.'
A sneer suddenly creep onto is lips and he retracted his hand, taking off his suit.
'Wash till your teeth sparkle on it.' He commanded, take off the suit and threw it at her. Though puzzled and petrified, she still catch the suit before it could fall on the floor, her instinct screaming at her.
'Aiva, you're DOOMED!"
Her greatest enemy turned out to be her boss. She should be expecting the word "YOU ARE FIRED" anytime soon.
'You have less time than you could have expected.' He concluded then turn around and walk back into the elevator while the two people that followed him before scurried after him.
Look at her, such bad luck
She misses the opportunity to submit her details to the CEO which make her offend the CEO. She came late, offending the company rules and now, poured hot coffee on the whole of a CEO's body, is she not more than unfortunate?
She is really gonna have a hard time, she had got on the bad side of the CEO
This is her first time seeing him, but she has already got on the bad chapter in his book
Who knows what he will do to her now?
She would surely get fired
She would receive a sack letter tomorrow
Murmurs rang from left to right, all saying one thing or the other. The workers tried their best to not be loud as they whisper to theirself but all their chatters still make way into Aiva's ear. She gritted her teeth hardly. Well, doom has come.
She marched to the restroom, cursing at herself.
Why him? Why did he turn out to be the CEO? Why that coincidence? It could have been anyone, but not him. They were enemies, he hated her and she hated him. She upset him many times that he has to say 'I'll get back at you.'
'this is nonsense, her doom came knocking right on the door.'
*CEO'S OFFICE"
Aiva sighed deeply as she place a light knock on the huge golden door.
'Come in.' the thick masculine voice from behind the door, as though has been waiting jut for her to show up ranged. She heaved countless times, mumbling some motivational words in her mouth. She prayed he would be in a good mood and not sack her. Her kids' school fees depend on this new job.
She pulled open the door and walk into the office. Well, still mumbling so silent prayers.
Fierce ms. Aiva, are you scared now? Ha ha ha ha ha, you're practically an iron lady, is your authority melting off now? Weird human being!
Neptune look at the face of the person who just step him and his cold gaze grow colder, hatred shown in his eyes.
This bastard girl!
Bastard little creature that dared to pour cow dung on the whole of him. This irritable fool.
'Hello sir.' Aiva forced herself to say, bowing her head. She took her time, spending hours to get this suit washed, dried and ironed before bringing it back to him, hoping he would not sack her.
'I have some personal matters to attend to, that's why…' she quickly bring herself to say as he stood up from his seat. Each step he takes hammer right through her heart, pounding, thudding, no screaming, protesting violently against its imprisonment within it's rib-cage.
'i… I dint intend to… i…. actually…. I am not always that rude…' she tried explaining herself but even before she could gather the right excuse, his voice pierced in.
'Drop the suit and come back tomorrow to get the letter you deserved.' He said, with a sneer at the corner of her lips.
'oh… okay sir.' She stammered and stumble to the front. She drop the suit and retracted, glaring at him with remorse.
What letter?
Sack letter maybe… No CERTAINLY! The letter she deserves is clearly a sack letter.
With swollen feet, she drags herself out of the office, her lips parted to let out a hot breathe.
She walked back to the HR and sat down on her seat while the others peeped at her, whispering like before. All saying she would be sacked or given an hard time in the company. It is just her second day at work but she has already gotten on the bad side of the CEO.
'Aiva.' Dorie called while she look up at her, faking a smile to cover the fear and disappointment in her face.
'it's okay, everything would be fine, there are always many job. So what if you are fired, you will get a job elsewhere. It's great that it's just the beginning. Don't feel inferior, you will get a better job next time.' She assured, her gaze fixed with pure concern but instead of Aiva to be positively inspired, she was negatively inspired.
Her heart flustered as she glare at Dorie and that mansion of courage suddenly appear from nowhere. This job, she has already loose it and the letter she would come to receive tomorrow is a sack letter but still yet, she would make sure she comes, with her head high, with no guilt or remorse. She won't be shaken nor let him mock her. She would instead spank his head with courage, curse him and disgrace him. She won't be his worker then again after all.
'thank you o much Dorie.' She replied and smiled, her mind filled with bad intensions.
