Imperfect Desires

"Are you looking for your Mr. Right?" "Why would I wait for him? Mr. Right is lost on his way." He quirked his brow at her answer with a faint smile at the corner of his lips. "Then what are you doing?" He questioned in amusement. She placed both her hands on his chest and pushed his masculine body against the wall taking him by surprise. Her honey-brown eyes blinked at him with mischief dancing in them as she planted a firm kiss at his jaw and said, "I'm planning on taking advantage of Mr. Right Now!" His eyes widened dramatically in disbelief. Before his eyes darkened with desire and passion. He placed his hands on her small waist and she could feel the heat of his big hands through the flimsy fabric of her shirt. His head leaned ahead as he whispered close to her ear, "Feel free to take whatever you want." She felt his hot tongue licking her earlobe making her heart to beat erratically. ~~~~~ Chen Xiu; known as Ms. Goody-two-shoes. A Superstar who was said to have it all which made her the center of hatred and envy as well. Little did anyone knew that the same Superstar had to nurse her own wounds in the silence and darkness of night where no one was looking. But for how long could she hold on for?

But whether this new chance was a blessing or disaster, it was hard to tell since she was trapped in a new body with a new life with the shackles of only her old memories. New life or a new curse? What really awaited her? The same disappointing silence of the night or was there someone calling out her name desperately at the end of the tunnel?

Little Dum-Dum

"Sir, if you didn't stop abusing your rights as my boss, I'll file a lawsuit against you!" Xiu's veins had bulged out in anger now. All her anger was obviously directed at Dylan.

"Ms. Bai, come here," Dylan beckoned her to come to his side and Xiu took careful steps towards his desk. But she stood at a considerable distance away from him. He clicked a button on his keyboard and said, "Watch carefully."

Xiu frowned but she still looked at the screen. The screen showed the surveillance view of the secretarial department on their floor.

On the screen, she could see how three out of five of secretaries were busy on their cellphones. Xiu was uncertain about why he was showing this to her. This was not something surprising to her. She had seen this scene everyday live.

"What do you think they are hired for?" She heard his question and looked at him.

"They are your secretaries?" She answered doubtfully. "So must be here to complete your tasks."

"Then why only you're allowed to enter my office?" He further questioned while looking at her.

"I don't know," she answered shrugging her shoulders. "Maybe, it's your favorite hobby to only order me around."

Dylan stood up from his swivel chair and stepped close to Xiu saying, "You just said that you're overqualified for this job. But why am I finding you not as smart as your resume stated?"

"What do you mean?" 

"Do you know what your job title is?" 

"Chief Executive Assistant of the CEO." 

"Correct. Then do enlighten me why are you not using your position or your brain?" He poked her head with his finger seriously finding her very slow-minded now. "In this company, the only person who can order you is me. The rest are below you and they would have to do as you say. Therefore..." He crossed his arms before his chest and added, "If you had used your own mind a little bit instead of running all around the city. You could have ordered anyone in that secretarial department to do this menial task for you. I never said that you have to go to the bakeries yourself. Your task was to bring cupcakes, how you do it was all up to you."

"Oh," was Xiu's reply. Now that he mentioned it, he really didn't say that she had to go herself. But since she always did her work herself, she just assumed that she was supposed to go and buy those cupcakes herself.

Also, she was still skeptical about those new secretaries who joined with her. All of them were either lazing around or gossiping. And Xiu wasn't fond of people who didn't take their job seriously.

"Oh? Just, oh? That's your reply? Seriously? And then you say, I'm abusing my rights as your boss. You literally tormented yourself. I had no share in that this time." He snickered as he continued, "I recently heard a lot about you. Everyone called you Heartless Witch in your previous department. And there was another new name from interns..." With a thoughtful look, he added, "Ahan! Pompous Demotivator. I thought you're really some genius but you turned out to be..." Dylan had a distressful and disappointed look on his face as he went on, "A bird's egghead. Tsk. Tsk."

 Xiu's eyes narrowed dangerously as she glared at him ready to swallow him whole. "Did you just call me a bird's egghead?"

"I did," he replied confidently. "Did I say anything wrong? If your brain wasn't so tiny, you wouldn't be threatning me with a lawsuit right now."

'Oh, you did not just say that!' Xiu's brain screwed were shuffled. Calling her 'a bird's egghead' was equal to calling her a dunce person. It was an insult, she wasn't gonna take lightly at all. 

She had heard a lot of things as Chen Xiu and had to swallow down those insults as well with a smile. Even when people used to say, "Chen Xiu is just a beautiful face with no brains," she always stayed quiet but she had proved her intelligence as Bai Xiu and she wasn't gonna let Dylan go for this insult.

"You! You're shabby down to your core." Dylan gaped at her with wide eyes as she glowered at him saying, "You can abuse your position of being my boss but who gave you the right to call me a fool?" She took a dangerous step towards him making him step back. "You are the only fool between us. Your whole family is a fool. How dare you call me a fool?"

"You're giving my words a totally different meaning again." Dylan tried to explain but Xiu didn't give her a chance.

"Oh, really? I don't think so! You little dum-dum. Don't play with the fire, I'll literally burn you into ashes."

"I am the boss here. Mind your words, I'll fire you otherwise." Dylan said in a warning tone as he was shocked to see Xiu's angry version. What little devil took over her body? Why did she seem so scary all of a sudden?

"Go ahead. Fire me. Do I look like I won't find a job anywhere else?" Xiu wasn't scared at all because of his threat. Dylan was taken aback to see her actively threatening him back. He obviously had no plans of firing her but why did she seem so certain that he won't do so? Was he that easy to read through?

"You! You!" He was having difficulty in finding words to retort. "I'll cut your paycheck!" He used the same tactic that he used on the weekend to get her help. 

Xiu clenched her fists tightly. 'Calm down, Xiu! It's just a paycheck anyway. Self-respect is more important.' She was reasoning with herself. 

"Go ahead, do whatever you want. I expect nothing less from a petty Uncle like you!" Xiu snapped out and finally blurted out the confession that Dylan was eager to hear. 

At first, he was shocked to hear that 'Uncle' again but after a minute, that shock turned into a sly smile that spread on his face. 

"Gottcha! Convenience store kiddo!"

Meehee's poem of the day:

Rain had already washed her down

But it couldn't heal the broken pieces

of her heart that was yet

breaking her inside down.

The rain brightened up the day

But her heart was yet to be okay.
