  +_[Hebe's Point Of View]_+ "Miss Tian!! Please hurry, you're late for your meeting with Mr Okaedo!! " Ella said anxiously as I ran into my office. I was late for work, damn damn damn, I'm never late for work.. What was wrong with my alarm clock? Whatever, it isn't time to think about this.. I put down my stuff and searched hurriedly for the proposal I typed out yesterday. Yes! Found it! I pulled a purple file out of the stack and rushed towards the conference room, with Ella at my heels. Opening the conference doors, I saw Mr Okaedo and another guy sitting there staring at me. I hoped I didn't see hatred in their eyes.. Tucking my stray strands of hair behind my ear, I walked forward a little and took a bow, "I'm sorry Mr Okaedo, I'm late.." Mr Okaedo smiled at me, revealing his ugly yellow teeth. It wasn't a friendly kinda smile, it was those kinda cunning smile, that made me wary of him. "Sit down, it doesn't matter.." He said in a japanese accent and gestured towards the seat next to him. "Uh, I shall sit here.."I took the seat opposite him, with the conference table in between us. "I'll go make the refreshments.
What would you like, Mr Okaedo? " Ella asked Mr Okaedo politely. "Anything will do.." He said dissmissively while still staring at me. I nodded pointedly for Ella to get the refreshments and looked down at her proposal while Ella left. I felt extremely uncomfortable as Mr Okaedo continued staring at me. Clearing my throat, I opened the document and started to explain the details to Mr Okaedo. But he cut me off, "Don't talk 'bout work first, do you wanna go to the k box later? " There isn't any k box in New Zealand, moron.
That was what I wanted to say, but I swallowed it down and said politely while faking a stiff smile, "Um, no thanks, Mr Okaedo. Let's talk about work first, then, we can talk about other things okay? " He looked disgruntled, but he agreed. Squirming in my seat, I looked up at that guy sitting beside Mr Okaedo, who I guessed was his son. He looked a little sympathetic at my situation, but other than that, his whole face was expressionless.
Hey! What's wrong with him! I looked down at the proposal again and tried to explain the details all over again. But I felt worse because that mad man's eyes won't leave my face. "So, this is our proposal, do we have an agreement? If we do, please sign it.." I wanted to end this as quickly as possible. I passed him the file and the pen.
He reached in, not to take the pen, but to touch my hand. Luckily, I noticed his action and quickly withdrew my hand, letting the pen drop on the table. Blinking hard and swallowing, I told myself. Bear with it. Bear with it. You can't afford to lose this client.. At the same time, Ella opened the doors with her back and came in with two cups of coffee. Phew.. I'm sure that pevertic man don't dare to do anything with Ella around. Just as Ella put down the cups of coffee, I felt something pressing against my leg. Shocked, I looked down and saw the stupid man's foot stroking my leg. It sent uncomfortable shivers down my spine. I couldn't stand it anymore.. I stood up in anger, causing my chair to make a loud screech. I reached forward and gave the idiotic man a hard slap across the face, then, I lifted up the cup of boiling coffee and splashed it onto his face, making him yell and splutter.
His face must have been disfigured by the hot boiling coffee, but I don't care. I didn't even care about the consequences anymore.. With tears boiling in my eyes, I burst out of the conference room and ran all the way out of the office building. Someone was chasing me, and I had an idea who. Ella. I turned back to face her, wiping the tears out of my eyes. "What did you do that for? " Ella asked me in a shocked tone. "He was stroking my foot with his!
And all his pevertic actions, I couldn't stand it anymore.. You wouldn't be able to stand it either.." I clenched my jaw and walked away from her, knowing that my job was finished, it was completely over.. I had offended one of our most important clients.. Half of me regret my actions, half of me didn't.. He really deserved it.. but I didn't deserve whatever punishment my office has for me.. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Life isn't like a video tape, where you can replay the good moments and fast-foward the bad ones.. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
