LOVE AGAIN

**PRINCE’S POV**

I kept staring at her as she dressed my wound. Her natural weaving didn’t take away her attractiveness, in fact I did think of her as a non fashionable person who liked simple hair styles but now. I find it extremely sexy that I had to shift a bit on my seat to control the heat below my belt. At this point I might take her from here. Kiss her and pleasure her into submission, no woman would stop me at that moment, she would have no exception .

My eyes slowly went to her cleavage, I tried not to stare but found myself looking back at it.

Then suddenly I got back to my actual sense. I can’t believe I was this stupid. I literally hurt myself on purpose to let her dress my wound, who the hell does that?

I got uncomfortable and nervous, I am getting too attached to this lady in her that is driving me insane, I have to stop this madness.

She tried to blow air on my hand.

“Hey it’s not hot, you don’t have to pour your spit all over, I am fine let go”.

She looked up at me confused.

“Sir, let me help …”

“I said I am fine, I can handle it”.

“But you told me to help just now”she snapped loosing it.

“And I don’t want you anymore, can you stop arguing and go back to work?”

She slowly took the first aid box back to the bathroom, after that she turned to leave.

“How is your arm?”

I heard myself say.

She turned to me with a surprise expression on her face.

“I am getting better”.

She replied in an non appreciative way and walked away.

She forgot to add thanks, that’s what I get from being too stupid to ask her such a question. She will think I do care about her.

**DANIEL’S POV**

As soon as she got out of the office, I wanted to ask her what the boss said to her, but I decided to keep my distance for now, so as not to get her into more trouble.

She looked at me and winked, that’s the sign it’s nothing serious.

I sighed relieved, laughing at our secret languages

She should choose something that wink dey sweet my body, i teased in my head.

My girlfriend called finally, and over two weeks she has been holding grudges because of our fight.

I wanted to play the hard guy so I ignored her, then she sent me a message.

“It’s over”.

I smirked at the text message and put the phone back on the table.

She is just joking, she said it yesterday and the other day, I don’t take her threats seriously anymore.

The boss came out an hour later, he removed his suit wearing only a shirt and tie, if not for his height I wouldn’t have recognized him, he is always in a suit.

He walked to the conference room, we waited for no instruction before knowing we wanted us to go there, it’s time for a talk.

I finished up my work and walked past Val’s corner, she was trying to put her things in order before leaving for the meeting.

I walked back and helped her. She looked up and gave me a soft smile.

“Thanks Dan”.

“You welcome, hurry before we become the last person to enter the conference room”.

We are the last people to enter the conference room, unfortunately. The room was as cold as the stare of our boss, I noticed he has been giving me cold stares lately, I wonder why.

Val and I sat on the two empty seats left for us , they are our seats actually. We love sitting together, so we can talk and whisper something to each other.

I pulled the chair for Val and she sat beside me , we both faced the floor because we knew how the boss’s eyes were searching to burn us alive, everyone of them since we delayed the meeting.

“Miss Jennifer, where are the edited work, I need to see them”.

His voice started.

Jennifer stood up and looked at me.

“Sir the editor is not around the time I went for it, I wanted Daniel to do it, he refused”.

“Excuse me sir, miss Jennifer the editor is around now, that’s not an excuse”

I replied a little bit annoyed, as if it’s my job.

“You are given just a tiny message to deliver you can’t even handle it, i am fed up with you”

He blasted Jennifer and I enjoyed every bit of it.

Then he casted another cold gaze at me, I don’t seem to understand what the atrocity I committed, his eyes are damn scary.

I swallowed hard and leaned towards Val.

“Boss is acting somehow”I whispered to her.

“I noticed too”she whispered back, but her body language says otherwise, she must know something about it.

“What did he tell you In the office?”I asked her.

“I will chat with you later about it, let’s stop, he is looking at us”She replied and tap my shoulder.

I nodded and, we quickly stopped every side talk, faced front and act like nothing happened.

“Pete, can I have your design?”Boss called out.

Pete handed his design paper to the boss, who frowned distastefully at it and threw it off.

“What’s this , maternity design? Is the model pregnant?”

Everyone was trying to conceal their laughter.

Pete shook his head sadly.

“So why is the stomach big?”

Everyone was now serious to know why Pete had to say something, the silence and tension was killing him.

“Sir, maybe it’s overfeeding, if she’s a living thing we will ask her”.

He replied, trying not to laugh at himself.

Val burst out into her loud laughter, I joined her, others too.

I covered her mouth with my palm, whispering to her that the boss was looking in our direction., she should stop laughing.

We apologized in a chorus.

“Y’all think it’s funny, his idiotic mentality is funny, why will you design a model like a middle schooler and still have the audacity to make a joke out of it, is foolishness your heritage!!!”

He barked angrily.

Everywhere was as quiet as a graveyard.

I noticed he looks towards us more, I can’t have enough time to tease val

I pinched her, because she was still concealing her laughter trying to be serious. I pinched her lap again, this time she caught my hand and was squeezing it. I smiled back , we both exchanged smiles.

“Ms Valerie”

The boss’s voice somehow separated our hands.

We looked up as if she was called by a ghost, Val stood up nervously.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“Yes Boss”.

“Change your seat”

Boss ordered.
