Chapter 14

"Riya and Miss.Hamen please take a seat." Mr. Miller said politely to me, and Juliet who as dumbfound as me looking at our surroundings in awe. I examined the seat arrangement before walking towards another direction which is far from Kayish. Sadly, Juliet is destined to take a seat near Kayish and here I just noticed there was a handsome man who sat on my left side. "Hello, gorgeous!" He greeted me with a wink. Sassy much. "Hey, Handsome" I mimicked his tone and took my forks. Mr. Miller started to order the food and asked both of us what we want for lunch, and to my luck, with my silly excuse I made before, I only ordered a salad as my option. Tragic.. They all enjoyed their food except me. Why did I come with a silly excuse? My mouth watered when the smell of hot chicken noodles and curry filled my nostrils but my luck, I have only fruit salad and sandwich. "You don't eat non-veg?" Mr. Handsome asked me, glancing at my salad. I know man, I know... it's pathetic. "Only for today, I'm fasting," I said and took another bite of my sandwich. The taste was good but I want more. It's okay. I will order my favourite Chicken Curry and noodles at home. Sweety like chicken curry too. I gave myself an assurance of the meal and a smile appeared on my face when I remembered the way how Sweety had her chicken curry for the first time. It was amusing, yet, adorable. She was too much eager for the food after she had a taste of curry, and the sauces can be found all over her mouth and upfront dress when she was done. As I was drowning in my daydream about Sweety, a hot sensation hit my sense and I looked up only to spot Kayish staring straight into my eyes and I can tell that he was in his deep thought. "What's the reason for your bright smile, dear? You seem very happy with whatever you are thinking?" Mr. Miller asked and teased me at the same time. "Ahh! hmm! It's just......" I tried to reason him, but Mr. Handsome beside me cut my word. "Oh! come on! It's your boyfriend. Isn't it? I bet you have a handsome boyfriend. Why did the gorgeous girls I always meet have a boyfriend? Can't one of them stay single for me?" He spoke with a loud voice far enough to grab everyone's attention. Eww! My cheeks heat up with embarrassment. "No wonder, beautiful gem always have an owner." Mr. Miller gave me a warm smile and turned his attention towards his Chicken Curry. I twirled my eyes to Kayish and find him staring at me intensely. I ignored his stares and stared back at my lovely salad and burger. Once the lunch has done, I and Juliet excused ourselves to go back to the office, since the restaurant is not really far from our destination. "Hey!" Mr. Handsome called out when I and Juliet came out of the hall. It seemed he has been waiting for us. "I'm Harith Walsh, you can call me Harith." He introduced himself; He sure knows how to get girls' attention. "Riya Kader." I took his hand for a polite handshake. I studied his appearance once more this time, with him standing in front of me granted easy access to get a proper look at him. He has grey eyes matches his hair, sharp nose, and strong jaw which definitely make any girls drool over him. He stood 6.2' height and has a broad shoulder, he's a charmer for sure. For a second I mesmerized by his handsome figure. I believe he must be every girls' weakness. "By the way---" Even before he could move to his sassy level, we were interrupted by someone. "Harith." A hard voice called from behind us and I turned my head to find Kayish giving Harith a hard look. "Hey man!" Harith waved at him while Kayish is walking towards us. And to my dismay, he stood beside him. I took one step backward when I felt his closeness. "Dad is looking for you," He told Harith in monotonic. "Okay--- that old man sure knows how to kill my date! I'm going." He managed an answer to Kayish. "See you later, beautiful! Say hello to your boyfriend." He waved his hand to me and gave another wink before walking away to meet Mr. Miller. Is he serious? Who told him I have a boyfriend? Boys and their bizarre thoughts! I shook my head. "Let's go, Juliet." When I and Juliet were about to take another step, Kayish's voice stopped us. "Miss Riya Kader, meet me in my office once 15 minutes from now" he ordered in a demanding voice, his jaw clenched and with that, he takes his leave. I and Juliet looked at each other not knowing what to say before we made our way back to the office. Well, the first-day work with Kayish will make my life more colorful.. Please... note my sarcasm. * "Miss Riya Kader, meet me in my office, 15 minutes from now." He ordered in a demanding voice, his mini breath barely caressed my bare neck that sent Goosebumps all over my body and with that, he took his leave. I and Juliet looked at each other not knowing what to say before we make our way back to the office. Once I reached the building I inhaled a huge amount of oxygen to calm my burning lungs before heading towards his office. I need to cool my entire system before meet him otherwise I could lose my control over my body and will send him to hell without another thought. Sighing heavily, I knocked on his office door and when I heard 'come in' in his rude voice I entered. To my dismay, he was standing right there expecting my arrival. Well isn't he the one who told me to meet him in the first place?
