20 Chapter 20 "Boss and i"
He got up and stood by the window thinking of what to text her
"So what do you think of me now, am I still an anal freak?" (laughing emoji)
~Jordan ~
She chuckled for the question she was asked, the truth was she don't see him as how she did before , he is completely a new person to what she presumed him to be in the past
"No! but you are a bit scary , a serious machine " (hiding face emoji)
~Tessa~
He laughed out his lungs, he couldn't believe what she said about him, he never thought someone could be so daring and fearless to call him such words before until she came into his life , she just blubber her mind out without caring
"Really? only a serious machine?" (Disappointments emoji)
~Jordan ~
Her face enlighten, she told herself there is no offense I'm complimenting her boss , it's just a compliment and nothing else...
"Well.... you are kind of cute and smirt"
~Tessa~
His heart went on a race with God knows what , very amused just to get a compliment from her, he felt like a world about it,
"Oh yeah? cute huh?"
~Jordan ~
Tessa hissed "Geez he is all happy to call him cute , I can't believe him of all people " she shook her head
"No you are not!! I take that back"
~Tessa~
He smiled gulping down water from the bottle he took on a mini table ,
"No chance! What said is already said, and thank you "
~Jordan ~
she chuckled running her fingers through her hairs , if anyone sees her now they would say she is absolutely smitten by the person that she was chatting with.
"Hiw do you think of me ?"
~Tessa~
She pouted and her eyes widen for the text came sooner than she expected to,
"You are careless, noisy, chatty and a spacing out queen "
~Jordan ~
He smiled wickedly texting this.
Tessa frowned once she saw the text but her lips curved at the end the moment the next text came from Jordan.
"Most importantly.... you are very beautiful girl I've ever came across with"
~Jordan ~
She dropped her body on a couch and sighed in a relief that even her boss notices her sometimes , it's crazy but she was happy about it ....
"Really sir? Thank you"
~Tessa~
"Yes Tessa , your boyfriend must be lucky to have a queen in his life"
~Jordan ~
Tessa furrowed her eyebrows feeling disgusted by what flashed in her head soon she saw the text...
"I guess he is not because I broke up with him" (disappointed emoji)
~Tessa~
He felt like growing wings and jumping out the roof with happiness , "She is single! she is single!! Yes!!", he mumbled to himself, and loosened the top button of his shirt, it seemed to be hot around him at the moment,
"He must be unlucky then to loose you, someone who knows your worth will be"
~Jordan ~
She had a faint smile on her lips "Yeah yeah, blah blah blah!! but I think your girlfriend is the most unlucky, to date a statue like yourself is a mission impossible "
~Tessa~
Several minutes passed but no text came from Jordan, it made her worried that maybe she talked too much this time, "Did I messed up with him, I must've been overboard ", she cursed herself for it, ten minutes passed , then thirty more but no text came, she sighed and closed her eyes to sleep. Jordan opened the a door and stood by the veranda, cold breeze blowing his hairs, his face darkened. What Tessa said seemed to disgust his mood big time, "A girlfriend?" he smiled bitterly then head back inside to his king size bed to sleep.
Tessa got up from the first buzz of alarm, she checked if Jordan texted her un the midnight but to her surprise there was nothing, she took a deep breathe and texted
"I'm truly sorry if I've annoyed you with my words, but then I thought we were friends and that you knew my behaviours, you asked me and I could ask too, it seems like I've crossed my boundaries, a big fat sorry sir!!"
~Tessa~
Hse went to take a birth and prepared herself heading to work.
Jordan woke up, he went to take a bath, eated his breakfast, when he was about to enter in his car , he halted searching his pockets "Whatbis wrong sir!?" Pharell asked, "I think I forgot my phone at my room" he replied, "I'll go get it , you should get in sir" Pharell rushed to his bedroom and came back in a jiffy, he handed him his phone and off they went .... Jordan unlocked his phone and met with Tessa's text at the notifications, he was overwhelmed, Tessa seemed to be disappointed in him for not texting her back last night, he ran his fingers on his jaw lines regretting to ignore her text, he placed down the phone thinking of what to tell her, he had something for her but he just won't admit the fact that he does, he was scared that the story might repeat itself again, love turned to hatred in his heart, and Tessa was like a fire that was melting away the hatred making him wanting to love again....
He arrived at the office and found her sitting at her desk, Tessa got up and greeted him formally unlike how they did back in Paris or before last night, he nodded and matched to his office. Pharell noticed the changes between the two of them "Did they had a fight?" he shrugged his shoulders and walked away. Jordan paced back and forth in his cubicle, he wasn't ready to loose whenever they had together right now, he wanted it to keep going between them because it gave him the peace of his heart , he opened the window shutters a bit and saw her sexy figure, Tessa was busy working, he sighed disappointed in his actions "What have you done Jordan?" .Tessa pulled her phone as a text entered, "Come to then office now!" ~Jordan ~
she lifted her head looking at his office, Jordan closed the shutters in a hurry and rushed to his chair, Tessa frowned getting up "Geez, is he peeping on me ?" she knocked the door before she entered "You called for me sir" she said in a low tone, Jordan cleared his throat "Yes" he paused, Tessa lifted her gaze to him seriously, he continued "So.... um... I think I've disappointed you last night for not texting back, it was because I fell asleep " he stopped looking at her reaction "I'm not disappointed sir" she shook her head , Jordan got up from his seat and walked towards her, she stepped back because he was strangely closer to her , he moved closer and leaned down to her ear "I'm sorry ", the world suddenly stopped around her, the sensation of his voice on his ear sent shivers to her nerves, she gulped and moved back a bit .They stared at each other quietly for a minute, when she got back to her senses she coughed out of shock, to receive an apology from a billionaire was the last thing she could ever imagine, she wanted to scream but cut off her mental system "It's ok, were friends no sorry no thank you" she smiled from eye to eye.
Jordan was relieved to see her back to her normal self or else he would have been in a big trouble with his heart, "If you don't have anything to say then... I'll get going" , he nodded, she turned going back to her desk , Jordan sighed big time "Out of all people, Jordan Brighton said sorry to his worker today, I wonder what she is going to make me do next, she is horrifying " he said shooking his head . It was lunch time when Tessa decided to try her luck to Jordan "Hey Jordan, do you wanna go to lunch together?"
~Tessa ~
she knew it was mission impossible but she still texted him for the sake of thier friendship he might change his mind , she sat waiting for a text for several minutes and finally gave up "What were you thinking Tessa?" , she got up from her seat heading to the elevator, she pressed the floor number, before the door closed a hand held to stop it and entered "You are not thinking of going to eat alone after inviting me right?" said Jordan, Tessa who was still processing the surprise he gave him by going with her for a lunch shook his head and pouted her lips "And here I thought you were busy.... and .... you don't have to come of you truly are" , Jordan chuckled looking at her "Did I said I am?" he messed her hairs her forehead "What!" she furrowed her eyebrows and plank his forehead, Jordan groaned "Ouch! you!!" he held both of her hands and locked them with his when suddenly a door opened, Pharell was standing outside the elevator facing them, he blinked by the closeness they had at the moment, they were so much like angry birds this morning and now they are both head over heels acting so childish, the two looked at each other and said in unison "It's not what you are thinking!!" , they released thier hands and moved out of the elevator, Pharell got in and pressed floor number "Did i say anything?" , the door closed and they could see his mocking face ....
"It's all your fault Jordan!" said Tessa pouting her lips and crossed her hands around her chest "Huh!! really now Tessa?" he narrowed his eyes at her , she was throwing all the blame at her , so unbelievable he tsk , "I think it's going to be scandalous if you go and eat with me ... why didn't I think about who is my friend?" she said and exhaled . Jordan nodded agreeing to what she was saying "That's true ... I'm your boss " he said in a disappointed tone, Tessa saw his expression, she bitten her lower lips thinking of a way out, She didn't want to loose the golden chance of spending on a lunch with her bossy friend, it was historical moments that should be kept in the Forbes she thought.....
