Thank you everyone :)

Wow! You guys are guessing the right thing.

But who are right and who are not..

You wilk come to know later ;)

And for some who are relating the character of Lucy to some others character of some movies.. Trust me i don't even watch english movies :D

Yeah but i used to watch English movies but only the action one. I don't even know the name of any English romantic movie :p

The last film i watched was oops!! I forgot the name but it was salman khan's recent film.

I don't know why am i discussing about films Lol!!

******

******

The week passed in a blur. There were no communication between us. He send the files through Lucy.

Even i was not willing to see him.

Are you sure Liz?

Yes. I am.

After that night i was feeling down. I was feeling depressed by his behaviour.

He behaves normally sometimes but as soon as he come to know that i was talking with a man or i am with anyone else...his nerve cells becomes active.

DAMN!!

Can't he just live his life in peace and let me live in peace?

See..he is not bothering me and you know why?

Because i am not talking to any men or staying with Diego.

Blast him!!

One month is over Liz you were about to resign..

Sh*t!! But..but..he hadn't hurt me right?

Yeah!! He didn't. He didn't told you a b**** , a wh*** etc etc.

Shut up!! I haven't forget that night.

But i think that was because of me..i shoudn't have provoked him when i knew he will not like the idea of me living with a man...

But he is no one to you Liz!! You can't just let him all over you.

God!! What should i do?

Should i resign?

I put my head on my hand which was on the desk.

Suddenly my door flew opened and i jumped at the bang.

''Are you alright?'' James asked coming towards my desk.

Whoa!!

No..i am not..

I am going insane..

Maybe you have infected me with your brain disease..

I rolled my eyes at my thought.

''Why are you rolling your eyes?'' He asked giving a concerned look.

Sh*t!!

''I..i am totally fine. Why did you ask?'' He put both of his hands on my desk.

''Check your mails and messages.'' He said normally.

''Hmm..''

There were three mails and ten messages all from..him.

Schedule my meeting for tomorrow.

Make a list of the people who are needed to attend the meeting and give it to Melissa.

Are you busy?

What are you doing?

Why are you not replying?

Miss Miller are you there?

Are you alright?

There were more messages.

''Umm..sorry i was zoned out.'' I said looking at the screen of my phone.

''I know it was a hectic week. Tomorrow is the meeting and after that if you want to take a leave for somedays..you are allowed.'' He said rubbing his jaw thoughtfully.

This is the fake James.

Where have you hidden the real one?

''No sir. I think i am very well. Thank you.'' I said.

''If you say so. Now send the mails and be attentive to your work.'' He ordered.

''Yes sir. Sure.'' I said and started typing on my computer.

He exited the room and i sighed.

Liz you are affecting your work...

Don't think about him. Be attentive.

I was done with the mails and contacts. I gave the list to Mel. It was lunch time so i was going to the cafetaria.

I walked out of the office but bumped to him.

''Sorry..'' i apologize.

''Where are you going?'' He asked.

''Cafetaria..'' i said looking at him.

He nodded and started walking. I was walking behind him. He entered the elevator and looked at me.

I knew he was waiting for me.

I went inside and stood at the corner.

Why is Mason not with him?

''Where is Mason?'' I asked him and regretted it.

''Why?'' He asked but i could say he didn't like what i asked.

''Umm..he is always with you..but now he is not..i was just curious.'' I said truthfully.

''That is none of your business.'' He dismissed.

Go to.....

Where ever you want.

I don't care.

Why are you so jealous of every guy i mention?

Do you...feel the same way what i feel for you?

Is that the reason why you behave like that?

The door opened to the cafetaria and i exited. The door closed and he was gone.

I saw Dave, Mel and Ben were already sitting.

I went to sit with them.

''Dave Why is Mason not with him today?'' I asked him and he spitted whatever was there in his mouth.

''What the f***?'' His eyes widen.

''Stop swearing.'' Ben narrowed her eyes towards him.

''Sorry baby. Thank you Liz for the information. I think he is not worthy for the job. Mason will regret this.'' Dave said and stood up while dialling some number.

He came back after some time.

''God! Liza. You scared me. He is with James.'' He said sitting back.

Oh..

''But..he was alone when i was coming here.''

''Yeah he already sent him to bring the car. He is going to meet a client.''

''Oh..''

''He is safe in this building Liz. You don't have to be love sick.'' He said smirking.

Whoa!!

''I am not.'' I gave him a dangerous look and he chuckled.

''But you look cute when you show the affection towards him.'' Mel said while fluttering her lashes.

She was mocking at me.

What?

I blushed at her remark.

''No i don't. I mean i don't show any affection towards him.''

''Whatever.'' Mel said and i applied the tomato sauce on her cheek with the help of my finger.

''See how cute you are looking.'' I smirked and her mouth was opened in shock.

''Are you five?'' She asked me.

''Nope! Twenty five.'' I chuckled and did the same to her other cheek and quickly stood up from my place.

She was fast as she came back to me but i ran out from there. She was following me with the whole bottle of the sauce.

''No! Mel i am sorry.'' I was laughing hard.

Everyone at the cafetaria was looking at us. Some were laughing while some were rolling their eyes at our stupidity.

Mel was antique. Instead of wiping the sauce from her cheek she was running with a bottle in her hand.

I saw Diego coming out of the kitchen and i hid behind him.

''Help me Diego. Save me from this sauce monster.'' I laughed looking at Mel from above his shoulder.

''Move Diego if you don't want me to make your face red with this sauce.'' She said with naughtiness in her eyes.

''No way. It is your fight. Don't make me a part of it.'' He said and walked away from there.

Sh*t!

''Mel sweety. Listen this is office you should not behave like this.'' I said controlling my chuckle.

''Oh my sweet Liza baby. Why didn't you think about that before you did this.'' She said pointing towards her cheek.

''But you are looking so cute.'' I laughed and ran out from there.

''Then let me make you the cutest.'' She said and ran after me.

My steps haltered as i saw him standing on the doorway.

Mel got the opportunity and she applied the sauce all over my face with her hand.

Sh*t!

I closed my eyes and tried to clean my face but it was a mess.

I felt someone started wiping the sauce from my eyelid with a cloth.

As soon as i opened my eyes i saw him.

He was wiping away the sauce with his handkerchief tenderly.

Suddenly he stopped his amazing skill and looked around.

''Wipe it out.'' He shoved the handkerchief towards me and walked out.

Am i dreaming?

Was he real?

I was right..he is definitely not him.

What has got into him?

I heard somene whistling. And i came back from my thoughts.

''I think that was the cutest.'' Ben said smiling.

I blushed.

''Love sick puppy.'' Dave said smirking.

''Shut up.''

My eyes travelled to the girls who were giving me a murderous look.

Sorry girls but i didn't told him to wipe the sauce from my face.

And if you want then please took him away from me.

I..i don't mean it.. i am just saying..

''Now will you please stop day dreaming and be back to work.'' Mel said in authoritive tone while crossing her arms.

I narrowed my eyes towards her and she burst out laughing.

''You were the one to start it. Now lets go we are looking like jokers.'' She said and tugged me with her.

We were washing our face in the washroom of our floor.

Oh no.. he saw me like this..

What would he have been thinking when he saw me like that..

Stop it Liz!!

We were done with the cleaning so we went back to work.

*****

There was a meeting that day so i was preparing the files which were needed for today's meeting.

I collected everything then went to the meeting room which was on the same floor.

''Are you done?'' I asked the room cleaner.

''Yes. Ma'am.'' She said and exited from the room.

I put the files on the table then arranged the projector and the chairs.

James entered with a file in his hand.

''Have you arranged everything?'' He asked looking at me.

''Yes sir.''

''Good. The meeting will start in Five minutes.'' He declared and went to check the connections of the projector.

After working there for almost eight months i was totally aware of his attitude. He wouldn't wait for anybody. He would start the meeting even if anyone was not present or was doing late.

He was a very strict businessman.

Soon everyone came one by one.

''Lets start the meeting. Distribute them the copies of the project.'' He commanded to me.

I distributed the copies to them and sat down.

''Before you start reading the thing i wanted to clear that if you wanted to change anything or you have any doubt then please don't bring it in the middle of the meeting. You can tell me that after the meeting is over. Because i don't finalise anything on the basis of a one day meeting.'' He said to everyone and stood up from his chair to went towards the screen.

The door suddenly opened.

''Am i late?'' He asked smirking.

I have seen him before...
