“Let’s play family game! Shall we? Clio will be the mother, and I will be the father While Jazz and Ren will be our kids” the boy excitedly suggest.
“Okay then” Says the girl and the other boy.
“But before that you guys have to declare our marriage, Ren will be the one declaring it” As if giving orders to our playmate that boy said.
after somewhat “You may now kiss the bride” the boy then unravel my so called “veil” as if this was a true marrige happening.
the boy move his face towards mine and in a blink of an e—
“KRERRRRRNGGG” the alarm of my phone suddenly explodes.
“augh another day of having those dreams, feels like a movie and i am
the main character, i wonder who might that boy i marry was?” Talking to myself at the mirror.
“OMG, i’m late again, one of these days i might get fired because of that dream” I ran towards the bathroom sink, gets the toothbrush and wash my face i didn’t have time to shower since i did last night.
Waking up everyday and feeling the weight of the world is usual for Clio Lay Zurc.
When his mother and father died from a car accident when he was only 11 years old he had been the only one to handle himself, it feels like every day the world is challenging him.
So when he finally move out of his province, moved to a big city, there he found a new job, promoted as “Secretary” of the KRO ENTERTAINMENT, made new friends here, and there and a lot has changed from then on.
at the building, his workmates would describe him as someone who is very passionate about his job, energetic, and very productive.
“You guys worked extra hard today you deserve a team dinner” Mr. Yu the director who just came by invitingly says.
“Hey Clio Mr. Go wants to talk to you for some important matter he said you should go to his office for that” he added.
“is it because i’m always late? i’m just a newbie here i can’t afford to lose at my state” my mind went away circling with tens of thoughts.
“Good Afternoon Mr.Go i heard you want to talk to me?
“Ah yes, Because of sudden leave of one of our company’s manager we don’t enough time to choose whoever, so now i want you and Ms. Anne to take part and be the representative of our company for the upcoming UOCBT or Union Of the Contry’s Biggest Tycoon and i hope you won’t dissapoint me.” Mr. Go announces
“Really? Oh..Thank you sir i assure you won’t be dissapointed, count on me sir!” as excited as ever.
“Well Then, I will send you all of the files and what you will be needing for the event.”
ps. i believe that’s all i can think right now my brain cannot work any more 😭 still thank you guys for support!!!!
Clio
After a week of preparation for the extravagant event the day has come, and ever since i woke up this morning i had been nervous to the bone.
Mr. Go said that the location of the event is at the HQ PALACE where then some of the biggest perfume brand will be having a battle of proposal to be posted to the NYC TIME SQUARE and i will be the representative for my company.
I have chosen a purple suit and my partner Anne has a Fuchsia pink.
6:30 pm everyone has gathered to where each representative will be presenting.
“BZZZ” my phone ringed in the middle of nowhere.
“Hey Anne, Imma go get this call, call me when it’s my turn” I chatted.
“Alrighty, get back asap so we can still adjust something” Anne stated.
I was running to the garden where at some point a brick-wall-like-body bump into mine and the whine he was holding splash into my dark purple suit.
“Aren’t you gonna apologize? i look like a damn ugly eggplant” Furiously looking directly in his green-ish eyes.
“Pardon? I’m not the one whose not looking directly where he was running, plus do you know who i am? to just shout at me?” the man says as if i’m the one to blame for all of this happening.
People started piling up to see what was happening in the garden area, they then started chitt-chatting here and there.
A man in black approach the guy.
“Mr. Aszevedo the event will start soon and we will be the first one to present”
the men then start to wipe all the whine he had in his suit.
“Hey look here, i don’t care who exactly you are. you’re the one obstructing the exit so why are you so bossy?” I said again looking him in the eyes.
“Clio let’s go we’re next in t—, mygosh sis what happened to you? are you okay? let’s go, “ she then looked to the man “I’m sorry for what he did Mr.”
“Heya, he’s the one to blame, what’s the sorry for?” I frustatedly say.
“Girl, you know what? Let’s just end it here, let’s go we will be presenting second in the line we might get delayed by this” Anne claim.
I decided to change my top since i got a spare blazer,
as i wait for my turn to speak infront of everyone, i can’t help to be bother by what happened earlier and as my eyes roamed the room my eyes met that green-ish pupils again and as i scan his face, he had a little smirk on his lips while looking directly at me, as a sassy person i rolled my eyes and brush it off
{Fast Forward}
The time has come to announce who gets to be chosen as the winner of the proposals, the first place will having the prize of advertisement and to be posted on the beautiful time square.
As for the second place it will be posted only in some articles and some news paper but not that big of engagement.
Clio Zurc
“Hey Clio, Atleast we get to be posted in news articles and some webs. I believe you two did a great job, i’m proud of you!” Mr. Go happily cheered us up.
“But i did a scandalous scene with that damn CEO of HR, i’m really really sorry for the inconvenience Mr. Go i assure i won’t do it again next time” I pleased.
“Don’t worry about it too much, people will forget that one of these days, let’s get back to work” he then pat our shoulders and smiled.
[Flasback]
“The winner of the UOCBT bussiness proposal is!....” The host of the event thrillingly says.
“HR INCORPORATION” he added, the group of the said company then approach the stage.
“Good Evening everyone, I’am Hyugo Mortel Aszevedo, The CEO and the rightfully owner of the HR INCONRPORATION.” That guy earlier says with a grin on his face looking directly at me.
as he said those word my heart shattered into pieces, just kidding it’s not a big of a deal, it’s just that i made a scene with THE CEO OF THE OTHER COMPANY, i’m doomed, i really am, at that moment i wanted to just jump to the nearest window and dissapear.
“Still congratulations for the KRO for winning second place, you still have next year to prove what you desire, thank you everyone for attending this event, see you all around!!” the host wholeheartedly said.
[End Of Flashback]
On my way to the elevator i saw that guy again. This time he has no body guards or anyone around him, just by himself.
I cannot look at him since i had been thinking that moment all this week. plus we are the only one here at the freakin’ hellevator.
“So, was my revelation that big you can’t even face me?” he said looking at his phone and typing somewhat.
“HMH. excuse you! i just can’t stand the sight of you, what are you even bragging?” Finding a word to make him uneasy.
“That’s a shame, you can’t stand my hotness and my handsomeness right, you know ladies will fight just to ge—“ leaving the guy hanging.
as the hellevator opens i quickly ran to the nearest café and then open up my laptop, nothing more i just came here to connect to the internet, because my company’s internet was so slow i cannot do anything.
I took out my phone and to my surprise a tons of message from Anne and other workmates bombarded me.
“Girl have you seen the post?” She chatted.
“What post?” Confused i asked.
“About you and the CEO of HR saying you were his next target” she then replied.
“What do you mean next target?” i asked again
“Send a link”
As i open the link she sent it was me and Mr. CEO with the description of “Ceo Of HR INC. involved with the employee of KRO, might be his next plan to crush the other company” with just that i pull myself together and head home.
Hyugo
“I had been waiting for a decade to see you again my love, now that i had you i can’t lose you again not this time.”
i pulled the trigger and “boom”
“bullseye” i said while smiling because of my thoughts.
ps. hyugo was doing a practice target you guys don’t get it wrong.
