19 Serendipity Pt.2

"Hello students my name is Greta Germani and I am the Vice President of Germani Industries. If you all will follow me, I will take you through the company." She says in a delicate tone. We all do as she says and follow her. Walking through the long halls there are just a bunch of office like doors with numbers on it. Only one room had a door open, peaking in there was just two men and a woman doing paper work.

"Germani Industries was created in the early 80's by the CEO Alexander Germani I. The first few years of the company being created, Mr. Germani had a hard time getting customers, but with his luck he acquired Lando Co. And after that many followed. This company has grossed in almost half a billion dollars over the last 13 years. Being described in Forbes Magazine as "the future". Ms. Germani says proudly. "I started at this company 4 years ago I was just the assistant to Mr. Germani at the time. Years of hard work and dedication brought me to become the Vice President of the company. Yes, I know you may be wondering how am I of relation to Mr. Germani?

She turns around and holds her hands up to stop us. "I didn't acquire this job because he was my uncle, I got this job by being educated, hardworking and determined to be successful. Let that be the drive to get you all going." She began to take us more around the place showing us certain offices, the receptionist and the lunch room. We finally end up on the top floor where Mr. Germani and the others were at.

Ms. Germani goes over to Mr. Germani and starts to have a quiet conversation with him. While they are talking, we all conversate amongst ourselves. "You know this is more interesting than I thought." Lyra tells me.

"Yeah you're right. I mean Greta started out by being an assistant then she became the Vice President how amazing. Most women don't ever rise that high in the chain." I tell her all exited. I love to see women in charge, most of the industry is of the male sex.

"Yeah Harlequinn it's a hoot." Lyra sarcastically says whirling her finger around. I gently shove her shoulder and roll my eyes at her.

"Hey, are you still staying at my house tonight?" I ask her.

"I have to call my mom and ask her; most likely she'll say yes so I'll see you at 6:00 tonight. Aren't you working?" Lyra asks.

"No, not tonight Ida is going out of town to visit family so I'm off for like five days." I tell her.

"Fantastic!" She says excitedly.

Everyone immediately stops talking when Mr. Germani commands the floor. This has to be the biggest and tallest man I've ever seen. He stands at 6ft tall, jet black hair, a jaw that could cut you and the muscles of a Viking. Looks like he was forged by the gods themselves.

He buttons up the button on his most likely expensive jacket and glazes his eyes over us. His dark black eyes land on mines. I take a step back and avert my eyes towards the floor. He was looking at me like he knew who I was. I cautiously look back up and he's now talking to Mr. Banhammer. Those have to be the most awkwardest 10 seconds of my life.

"Hello my name is Alexander Germani I, but you will know me as Mr. Germani. I am sure that my niece, Greta, has filled you in on the history of this business which I thank her immensely." He says. His voice is so deep and kind of frightening.

"Ohhhh how I would love a piece of that." Lyra whispers to me in my ear.

"Lyra ewe he's old enough to be our father, maybe even grandfather." I whisper back to her.

"Well you know I always wanted a sugar daddy." She tells me while licking her lips.

"You are so nasty you know that." I answer back.

"I was expecting my son to be here, but by the looks of he won't be showing up so I'll be on my own.

Anyways let me tell you abo-." Mr. Germani was interrupted by a guy bursting through the door looking all disoriented. His shirt was half tucked in, jacket was hanging off his shoulder and briefcase half open.

Someone had a night. We couldn't see his face his back was turned to Mr. Germani, but without looking at his face you could tell that he was handsome.

We all just looked at him while he gets himself together, everyone chuckles and whispers at the way he looks. Once he gets situated, he turns around and my eyes bulge open and I lose my breath it's him, the guy from the party.

This has to be a coincidence, right? I guess Lyra was right about that whole serendipity thing if he is meant to come back he will. He looks even more handsome then he did at the party.

I rub my hands together very anxiously, scared of what will happen next. I obviously have to go thank him for what happened at The Blondes party last week. Also, I have this weird pull to want to get to know him more.

I can't explain it, just a feeling I guess. He looks to me then his father. They stare at each other almost like they have this secret language.

His father gives me one last glance then looks to the whole group again, is there something on my face or what? I turn to the side and start to feel my face for any weird marks but nothing.

"Hey you Ok?" Lyra asked looking at me with a weird expression on her face.

"Yeah.. well no I don't know." I said slightly fanning my armpits for some reason he makes me really nervous, I can't explain.
