I will call you Rock

CHAPTER EIGHT.

Oliver's POV (cont).

I took her to another office and made her sit. She doesn't even know I'm the boss so why take her to my main office?

I placed an order to one of the restaurants outside but not without asking her what she wants.

"Ummm.... spaghetti and broccoli sauce" she said as her eyes searched everywhere.

"Are you looking for something?" I asked.

"Aaargh! Not really,my back hurts. I just want to lie down"

"But you didn't wanted to come with me initially and now you want to lie down"

"I couldn't leave those customers,it was so scary at first that I wanted to run. Everybody kept coming for me to attend to them but... I remembered how long I've suffered to get a job,to work in my dream company,so why will I complain even if I'm to die while working. It will be an honour" she said that dreamily and i stare I'm disbelief how one is willing to do anything for the growth of a building she admires.

"Well,you Didi really well and it's as a result of the guy you attended yesterday"

"Oh yes! That lucifer right? I told Jay about but he wouldn't believe. If only joy had come back earlier from the store she would have believed but I had to go"

"Who's Jay?"

"My friend,he disturbs a lot. Guess what? I ran away from him this morning before he reached our house"

"Hmmmn..why?"

"He wanted to dress me up again!!" My saliva caught in my throat that I choked,I coughed out bad and she narrowed her eyes,damn! Why did that words affect me like that?

"Hey,take it easy ok?"

"You said he wanted to dress you up? Like he has been dressing you up?" I asked as I felt something burning in me,but I shake it off.

"Yes! He gave me that gown to wear,very tight nonsense. Joy bought a short skirt and a shirt yesterday and he said he was coming over to give me this morning,I ran!!"

I bursted out laughing,I couldn't believe where my mind was heading to,oh! No wonder she liked so decent and different yesterday cause she's totally the opposite right now. She looks like an Arab with her res shawl,dressed so shabbily an with the attitude of i don't care.

Her food arrived and she ate hungrily,she urged me to join her but I declined, I told her it's a way of apologising for wrong acts.

She threw the fork to one side and used her hands to eat the spaghetti,she closed her eyes and savoured the meal. This girl had no iota of shame or dignity as a girl,she licked her hands noisily and requested for more.

Aunt Berby called.

"Olive where's sanctify? Kyle is here!!" My blood boiled,what does he wants again? I stare at Sanctify as she devoured her meal.

"She won't be coming,let someone else attend to him"I say and aunt Berby voice almost pierced my ear drums.

Aunt Berby is my dad's sister, literally my aunt and the caretaker of this company. My father couldn't trust anyone to handle the company or some to guide me.

Her name is Berbie blues married to a professor in Bri-Royals academy in Canada.

He comes home once in a blue moon. We fondly called her aunt Berby,she was cool,strict,smart,funny and loved us the same way she would love her children,Melisa and Mandy.

They are study oversees so she's literally on her own right now. She rarely visit home no matter how Laurel and I convinced her,she prefers her shell all alone.

I might be the CEO but she's the Boss of bosses.

"Are you crazy? Send sanctify right now!!" She hung the call.

"Hey,you have a special customer waiting for you"

"Oh no! When I was almost finishing this,keep this for me,don't you dare touch it m Mr..."

"It's Stones,call me stones"I tell her.

"Stones? Hell no! You're more like rock,your body,face and muscles all hard" she said and my heartbeat palpated faster,was she checking me out?...Even if she was, what's so special about....what's wrong with me?!

"I'll call you Rock,so rock you're forgiven. Thanks for the meal" she said wiping her hands with the hem of her gown.

"Dear Lord!!! There's a sink beside you,why not use that?"She hissed at me and cleaned her mouth.

"Just do well to come back and sign ok? Your food will be waiting"I tell her and she nodded.

"Definitely! I just don't know when Mr. Lucifer will come around"

"Why" I asked her knowing very well that Kyle is here.

"He said he said he will be taking me out on a date and i don't know how long"

Those words were like bomb shell to my ears,Stange anger filled the lump of my throat and i could feel jealousy running through my blood spine.
