The look

Jacinta's pov

Hmmmm!

I sigh before entering the big building with the label ' THE MERKIAN GROUP OF COMPANIES" in huge capital letters.

This is actually the worst morning of my life. I just hope my day turns out great.

After the car threw mud at me, I walked over to my friend's house which is past the road.

I couldn't go to work looking like a pig but my friend made it worse.

I look like a... aargh forget it.

Her name is Vivian, a girl but she likes dressing like a boy and walking like one too.

You can say she is a tom boy but with a girl's soft voice.

She even likes to be called Viv.

"OMG! Jacie you look like a pig! What happened?" She asked as I stepped in her house.

She leaves with her two parents and one young brother who has a crush on my little siz.

She is actually in her last year of high school which I should be too and I don't know why she skipped school today but I dint care at that moment.

"Just lend me some clothes and don't ask me what happened . Lend me your bicycle too coz I'm late for my new job!" I said looking so down at the moment with my shoulders fallen.

She understood me and just lend me her boy clothes.

She is tall than me and her clothes just.... are too baggy.

You can guess how a short girl like me looks like right now, in a huge blue t-shirt, and a blue ragged trouser which I keep pulling up since my waist is small.

It keeps dropping and I keep pulling up.

"You look cute baby. Run along and don't be late for work" that's what Viv told me and shut the door on my face.

I had no option but to come to work like this but now all the staff at the first floor are looking at me.

They are even talking about me and i could hear them

😹who is she? What's she wearing? Haha

😹I've never seen a shabby person like her in my whole life. Haha

😹the trouser keeps falling off haha

😹does she work here? 😐

😹the boss will certainly think she is a thief and throw her out. Haha

😹maybe she came to ask for alms. You know how these poor people are

😹yeah right! So lazy!

Their words make me freeze and want to ran away but just then I see Justin coming over towards me.

Suddenly I feel relieved as he reaches to me.

"Where have you been? You weren't reachable" he says that and I dawns to me that I forgot to plug my phone last night and I left it on the bed.

Fuck! I hate this day!

"It's a long story Justin" I say and he sizes me.

"What are you wearing?" He asks and I feel shy to even reply.

"Shit! Now I can't even help you get other clothes" he says as he keeps staring at the entrance.

"Who is he?" I ask as I notice a man getting off a posh car which looks just like the one that ruined my clothes.

"He is the CEO and heir of this company" says Justin and I give a better glance to the man just to notice that....oh my God.

I told you I hate this day. Right now, I wish for the ground to swallow me and vomit me back home on my bedbug bed.

It's the man I owe money for his imported side mirror.

Fuck my good heart! He has noticed me and it's the end of me.

Damian's Pov

I've just gotten the contract and I'm now heading in to my office with the good news.

There is a person standing with Justin at the centre of the first floor, dressed like a hooligan.

As I enter the main entrance, the person turns back and ...oh shit!

It's that silly side mirror girl!

What's she wearing?

I don't care what she is doing here, she has to pay up for my side mirror and for how she talked to me as if I was a nobody.

I don't know how fast I've reached here but I'm infront of her right now!

She looks scared and that's what I want to see in her eyes.

"Get her to my office right now! Get back to work Justin?" I command my bodyguards and everyone is startled as I say that.

"Boss she is the new..." starts Justin but I don't want to hear anything at the moment.

I just want the girl to pay back. She even lied to me that she would pay by evening.

My bodyguards have already carried her into the elevator and she keeps screaming uncontrollably.

There are two elevators in my building and so I use the other one . I hate noise.

"Make her shut up!" I say and hear murmurs and small laughter from my workers as i go away.

.........................................................

Jacie's Pov

I feel my legs getting lifted from the ground and I'm now so high on the shoulders of one of the tall tall bodyguards.

That silly arrogant rich man has just commanded him to take me to his office.

At first I don't know where he is taking me, but then I see him directing us towards the elevator.

No! I can't go into that hell that killed my parents.

My fear builds up and I start to scream, Maybe they would let me go but the arrogant man walks to another elevator by the side.

"Please don't go in there! Please let me down! Not in there! I will pay your money but please don't take me in there" I scream in tears but the huge bodyguard only puts me down immediately the elevator closes up.

I start to feel like the ground in moving upwards and I can't take it anymore.

My head spins as I hear voices of mom and dad calling out for help.

My eyesight becomes dim and everything becomes dark.
