First encounter

CHAPTER FOUR

I slept off while surfing the Internet last night and woke up with my phone in my hand.

I woke up early today unlike other days. All thanks to my mom. She left the house very early and the sound of her vehicle woke me up. So I prepared on time, had bacon and eggs with a glass of juice for breakfast before leaving the house.

I got to work on time. I hugged Nova at the dressing room before we separated to stay at our stations. When we're working, we barely talk or even see each other because my station of work is quite far from hers.

The place was filled with a lot of people so early in the morning.

Just as I was about to sit down, we were all called for an impromptu meeting with the manager present. He looks lively today. Unlike the last time we held a meeting.

He wore a plain black shirt with an army green shorts, coupled with a black sneakers.

His blond hair was well cut, light blue eyes. I must say, they're very pretty eyes

He looks really nice today. But it doesn't look like he came to work today.

He usually doesn't dress this hot… I mean simple on a work day.

"We have recruited new employees. The work load is becoming too much on some of you, that one of you actually went on our site to write bad comments there…"

Hold up. What? Who's that sicko that went straight to the comment section instead of just complaining or rather, quit you f***ing job. Honestly, people can be unbelievably stupid at times.

As he said that line of someone leaving some bad comments on the site, everyone turned to look at those beside and opposite them. Probably trying to figure out who the sicko is. But c'mon, it's not written on the face.

"…thankfully, our tech team took down the nasty comments. And we're hoping on finding who so ever it is that's trying to ruin us in their little ways."

The whole place was quite. I'm sure if a pin should be dropped, it would be so loud that everyone would hear it drop.

"Every station will have two or more workers assigned, depending on how busy or stressful your work might be. This is a warning to everyone here, no misconduct, I mean no single misconduct will be tolerated here. If you have been neglecting our rules and honor of this place, you should better go back and rethink."

Okay… he's being so harsh right now. I might not understand maybe because I'm not in his shoes.

Maybe this really got to him or he had some family issues and now he's being cranky about this issue.

Well, who knows…I might just be wrong.

Finally, the whole nagging. I mean meeting was over and I'm a little excited to have someone to work with. It's kind of boring without Nova being close.

Will it be a girl? I hope she'll be pretty and fun. Or will it be a hot, sexy guy. Who I'll probably have a whole lot of fun with. I giggled as I kept imagining things I wanted in my coworker.

Just then, a hot steaming, breath taking guy was walking straight to me. Oh my! My imagination/prayer actually worked. A hot dude? All for me? I might actually go crazy right now.

What do I do? Should I smile and show how excited I am or should I act like I don't care? Or should I just…

I noticed immediately that we we're making a lot of eye contact before I broke my eyes away, making a sharp turn to the left as I walk towards a fur chair pretending to wipe off dust. That was real quick and I made everything weird. How can I dust a fur chair with my bare hands. Who does that? Luckily for me, it was covered with a thick nylon, so my hands didn't stain it. If not, I'd be in big trouble.

I tried turning to see if he was already here. Maybe beside me. I don't know what happened with my hands suddenly as I tried turning, I hit his phone off his hand. That's not my fault, I didn't know he was that close.

I clinched my teeth together when I realized what I just did.

I hope his phone is fine.

"I'm sorry. I didn't see you coming." I tried sounding cool and at the same time, sincere.

"Shit!" He cursed under his breath while bending to pick up his phone.

"You really should be sorry," he stated looking at his phone for any damage.

What? Did he just say that? Hope I heard it correct.

"What?" I made a weird noise right after asking him the question. A little bit surprised by his reply.

He immediately made eye contact with me. I froze on my spot. He's totally a Greek god.

Amazing! With blue eyes and height that is making me feel so little, perfect sculptured jaw and let's not forget his dark brown soft and silky hair. He's wearing a black shirt with a white crisp polo inside. I could see be cause he buttoned up half way. I can see the muscle clinging when he is moving his hands. He is so handsome, totally drool worthy guy.

Omg!!! He's so hot and sexy. I'm sure God made this fine wine in his free time. Damn!

I gulped.

After staring at him like a dumb girl for sometime, I came back to my senses and I realized I was drooling over him like a dog that saw a bone. I flushed at the thought of staring at him. He was saying something, but I couldn't hear because I was lost at the moment.

'Can you come again?" I asked dumbly.

"I was saying you should get your head and thoughts together, and stop being clumsy."

So busted.

Wait. Did just insult me?

Is he for real? I was about giving him a piece of my mind when he cut me off in my mid.

"Are you already loosing your focus now I'm up close. Because I saw you staring at me from afar." He smirked, looking at me like he was judging me. By the way, how did he see me stare if he wasn't staring back.

He's so full of himself and that's annoying. He should better know that he can't insult me like that.

I nodded.

"Who do you think you are talking to me like that" I huffed. He's the one that wasn't looking where he was going. Focused on his phone, probably deceiving a girl through text. Tch!

And now he's blaming me for his mistake too. I shouldn't have apologized first.

How can a person be so arrogant.

Sexy arrogant guy.

"You know what, forget it, you already wasted my time, and I don't want to waste a lot more. So now, move" he said in annoyance.

No way, he's going to talk to me that way and I would let him go like that, hell no.

I stood there and crossed my arms showing him that I'm not going anywhere, but he pushed me aside and carried on his way just ignoring me like he can't even see me.

Arrogant and I'll mannered jerk, not even a gentleman.

Who the bloody hell is he?

I groaned as I stomped my feet at his arrogance, how I wish I could punch out that smirk off his face.

What's his problem exactly? He couldn't even apologize even though he was at fault too.

I can't deal with jerks like this. Especially the ones with a pretty face and nice body.

I hope this is the first and last time we ever crossed path. I'm here thinking he was among the new workers and hoping we'd work together.

Thank God he's neither of them. Just thank Goodness.

After all my complaining, I went to the corner of my station and sat. I just had to wait to see Nova so I can tell her all about this jerk.
