2 1 Feeling Nervous being with him

Bella is a sweet young lady who grew up with her grandmother.Her mom left with another guy when she was 6 years old.His father decided to leave and look for her mom. She was then crying  while holding his father's hand."Please dad don't leave me!" she begged. Her father sat down facing her."Don't cry Bella,Dad will only look for mom!"he said while drying her tears. Bella then smiled and hug him tight."Promise me you will go back soon?" she asked with her innocent smile.

Her Dad smiled while caressing her head. He picked up his cellphone on his pocket and gave it to Bella."I won't be long!Just stay here and wait for my call,I will call you  as soon as I found mom".he said. Bella then felt secured.She smiled back to his dad. That was her last conversations with her Dad.

Since then Bella never heard anything about her parents.

Growing up with her grandma alone is not easy.After her class,she went to her grandma's stall in the market to help her sell vegetables and fruits.During weekend she went to the sea shore with her playmates to pick some sea shells and sell it to the merchant. Upon handling her hard earned money she will happily go back to her grandma.

"Hey grandma look!I have earned!" she shouted as she  excitedly showed her the coins on her purse.

"Silly little girl!I told you not to go to the sea shore at this hour,It's too dangerous!"

Bella smiled and hug her grandma.

"It's okay grandma!I'm safe anyway!"

Grandma just tap her head while smiling back at her. That was her childhood's life.

After graduating in college Bella got a job in an Advertising agency. She works as the assistant of the owner named Adam. Adam is a handsome guy with visibly attitude problem. He is a short- tempered guy.He easily got agitated even in the simple thing.Having low tone is not his type.His poker face made everyone in the office afraid of him and so as Bella.

Bella always felt nervous when her boss,Adam is around. Since she grew up with her grandma's low tone voice she doesn't used to hear such a scary voice of Adam.

"Where is my coffee?" he asked as he entered the office.

Bella was shocked!she almost drop the papers that she is holding.While looking at her boss,Adam's burning face Bella slowly moves towards the pantry.

"Sorry sir! I thought you are going to  meet a clients outside" she said as she handed a cup  of coffee to him.

Adam seriously looked at her.

"Where is your cellphone?haven't you received a message from me?I have texted you many times and I even tried to call you but you did not even dare to pick up your phone."

Bella was faltered,she was besides her cellphone all the time but she did not received any messages nor heard any calls.She quickly picked up her cellphone on her desk and present it to him.

"I'm sorry sir!there might be a problem with my cellphone"

Adam's brows furrowed as he looked at her old model cellphone.

"Wow! Is this an antique?In which era you bought this one?"he sarcastically said.

Bella felt embarrassed and turned her head looking at the floor.

"is this really working?" Adam asked while looking at her.

Bella nodded.

"I can let it pass this time but make sure it won't happen again!"he said as he handed back the cellphone to her.

Bella felt relieve as she turned back to her sit.

"My God!Why it's not working?"She said while checking  on her cellphone.

After office hours Bella run to the nearest cellphone repair shop to fix her cellphone.She run fast as she saw the repairman who is about to pull down the rolled up door.

"wait!" she shouted.

With her charms she persuaded the repairman to stay for awhile.

" I never thought that this kind of cellphone is still existing?"the repairman said.

Bella's face turned red as she felt embarrased.And the repairman noticed it.

"Don't get me wrong!This cellphone is one of the expensive cellphone model during those time,it just that our technology today is very fast facing"

Bella smiled as she nod her head.

"That is the  only thing that reminds me of my Dad"she uttered.

"I see!"

The repairman sit on his chair and started to fix the cellphone. Bella then sit on the bench while watching him.

It was already late when Bella reached home.Her grandma is standing outside their house patiently waiting for her.

" Grandma,you should not wait here outside,you might get cold!"Bella said as she guided her grandmother towards the house.

"I don't care about getting cold!I'm worrying about you!"

Bella smiled as she hugged her grandma.

"Sorry grandma!I just went to the cellphone repair shop!"

Grandma seriously looked at her.

"Why don't you change that cellphone?It only caused you a trouble" she said.

Bella holds grandma's hand.

"its okay grandma!Lets just save money for your medicine". she said.

Grandma sighed,

"are you still waiting for your dad's call?" grandma asked.

Bella faltered,She looked up as she's trying to hold her tears.

"It's been a years already Bella,you must gave up!"

Bella did not say anything,She knew then that her grandma is worrying about her and so she tried to smile.

"let's get inside grandma!it's getting cold"

On the next day,Her boss, Adam asked her to attend a meeting with him. It was her first time,and she didn't even have an idea what it would be looks like,the only thing she knew is it was one of the important project that Adam's want to acquire,having that on her mind Bella felt nervous,

while waiting for the meeting to start she felt cold,and her mouth is started to tremble.She is afraid she might commits mistake and get humiliated in front of Adam's colleague just like what Adam's did to other staff.

"Are you okay?"as he noticed her.

She nod her head while trying to compose herself.

"You look pale!"Adam came to her and gently touched her face wanted to make sure she's not sick.

"I'm okay sir!I'm just a little bit nervous."she said with her trembling voice.

Adam asked the staff to adjust the temperature of the air conditioner as he wearing off his coat and covered it to Bella but it doesn't help at all.

"Let's go outside!" he said as felt worried looking at her pale face.

Adam then carefully guided her to a place where there's a fresh air and let her sit for awhile.

A few minutes after,Bella's face started to turn normal"are you feeling better?"he asked.

Bella just nodded.

"Just wait for me here"he said as he handling her a bottle of water.

After looking at his watch,Adam run back towards the conference room trying to catch the meeting. But it was already started when he came. Adam slowly loosen up his tie as he looked at his competitor presenting in front,sneering at him.Adam sighed,he knew then that he already lose the chance.
