Chapter 37 What’s she doing here?
Nathan POV
The sound of my blaring alarm, jolted me out of my deep slumber, and I tossed on the he’d tiredly, before sitting up on the bed. I’m so damn tired, and to think that I’m going to work today, is really annoying, just the thought of it, makes me wanna cringe and scream my lungs out.
Sitting up on the bed, I yawned tiredly, and ran my fingers through my hair, before getting off the bed, after which I dragged my feet sluggishly into the bathroom. I just got a job in Apple Cosmetics Company last week, and as far as I’m concerned, and as a dedicated person I’ve always been, punctuality is the key.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Stepping into the bathroom, I stripped out of my clothes, leaving only my short on, before walking over to the floor length mirror, standing close to the wall, just adjacent to the bathtub. I stood before it, and stared at my reflection, and damn! I looked so disorganized with my sleepy eyes. As much as I want to get more sleep, I just couldn’t do it, knowing that I would be late for work. For these past days that I’ve been working with the company, I’ve noticed that the manager is one hell of a strict woman, and getting on her bad side, is the last thing on my mind.
I had a quick bath, and got dressed in less than an hour, before leaving the room. Stepping out of my room, I walked through the hallway, till I got to the room next to mine, and rolled my eyes, before placing a knock on it, but as expected, I got no reply. I wonder why Ivan sleeps a lot like this.
“Can you wake up already Ivan? Stop acting like a jobless fellow.” I whined, as I pushed his door opened, and walked inside, only to meet him sleeping deeply, with his body wrapped up with the duvet. Holy crap!
“Ivan!” I called sternly, as i finally got to him, and tapped his back, but he only groaned and tossed on the bed. This dude is such a lazy ass.
“Just few minutes please.” He groaned sleepily, and I scoffed unbelievably.
“It’s 11am already, I thought you’re having training by 8am.” I said with an eye roll, and she jumped off the bed, with his eyes wide opened. Wow! It worked.
“Nathan that was not funny.” He glared at me, after he glanced at the wall clock.
“Get your lazy self out of that bed, and go get ready for work dude, you gotta train for your upcoming contest. I’m sure gonna kick your ass, if you end up not winning the contest.” I rolled my eyes at him, before exiting his room.
Stepping into the living room, I was welcomed with the sweet aroma of pasta coming from the kitchen, and I didn’t need no one to tell me that Nora is at it again. A smile crept on my face, as I walked towards the kitchen, and once I got close, I pushed the door opened, and as expected, I met my beloved cousin busy making breakfast.
“Good morning beautiful angel.” I smiled heartily, as I leaned against the counter, while peeking at the pot, salivating.
“Hey Nathan, you’re awake already?” She asked, as she glanced at me with a smile on her face, before turning her attention to the food.
“Yeah, but your asshole brother is still in his room, sleeping like never before. I wonder why he’s such a lazy ass, always loves sleeping.” I scoffed, as I crossed my arms on my chest.
“We both know Ivan is one hell of a sleepyhead, I’m sure he’ll come around.” She chucked.
“Wait for me in the dinning room, I’ll come serve your food now.” She said, and I nodded before walking out.
After having breakfast, I hugged her, before finally leaving for work. Stepping out of the house, I walked over to the parking lot, and hopped in on my car, before driving out of the compound, and in the next few minutes, I was already on the way, driving to the company.
After driving for what seemed like forever, I finally got to the big iron bar gate of the company, which was widely opened, and I drove in. Parking at the garage, I alighted from the car, and headed straight to the entrance door, after which I walked into the company, and straight to my office.
If you must know, I work as the human resources management of the company, and also the general overseer of the modeling agencies in the company. Stepping into my office, I walked over to my seat, and made myself comfortable, before getting started with work. Since it’s Monday today, I’ll be having a lot to do, so I better take my time.
I went through the several emails displaying on the screen of my desktop, and one after the other, I took my time to go through them, and replied to some, which are important, while ignoring the ones of less importance.
After spending almost forever, sorting emails, I finally switched to the previous week’s activities, and that was when I remembered that the new model and photographer will be resuming today. The company have been short of a female model and photographer lately, so we decided to hire someone. Since I had something to attend to, I asked someone else to do the interview, and turned out that the person they found, is perfect for the two jobs, I think I should go see her now, so we’ll talk on how the upcoming project is going to be.
I did a few more things on the computer, before I finally left my office to go see her. Stepping out of my office, I made my way straight to the large office, where almost all the workers are, and stepping in, all eyes fell on me, as most of the female staffs have those lustful looks on their faces. I’m not affected no more, I always get that look virtually everywhere I go.
“Good morning Sir.” They kept greeting me, while I just nodded and gave them a warm smile.
“Who’s the new staff here?” I asked, while running my eyes through the place.
“The GM sent for her.” One of the female staffs, who I assumed to be Brittany, replied.
“Alright, tell her to meet me in my office when she’s back.” I said, and with that, I turned around and started walking towards the door. Raising my hand to open the door, it threw opened and someone barged in, colliding on me, and almost fell down, but I was fast to catch her, before she landed on the floor.
My eyes almost widened, as I behold her face. What! What’s she doing here?
