Homepage/A PICTURE OF HIM/
chapter 9
I went to my drawer to get my drawing materials, I always draw when I'm happy, sad or any other extreme emotion. Drawing is what I really love doing but my parents refused me being an artist, I really love drawing and painting. I found myself drawing the picture of Mr. Nich in my head, this was really my first time drawing without a paper picture, so much time, the outcome was great. The drawing turned out so perfect that I wish to gift him, whenever I see him again but what would be his reaction? The drawing took me all night because I was willing to present it to him, but what if he rejects it, I have to make a bold step at least to say thank you.
After the drawing, I filed it and placed it safely to avoid stain. I couldn't sleep well, I found myself imagining some impossible things.
Clara, what is wrong with you, I asked myself.
I really need to handle this infatuation, how could I be possibly thinking about a man I just met. The night was really a short one because I slept late, I woke up early because I needed to get to work early, seeing the faces of my oppressors looking pained and defeated will give me lots of joy. Finally I decided not to go with the drawing.
Another beautiful day to show off the beautiful creature, I wore a pair of skinny trouser and a crop top, revealing my belly button, my hair resting on my shoulder with my big fancy earrings forming a beautiful wheel, I did a light makeup, painting my lips dark red. Red lipstick always give this classy look on my face and I hit the road. I didn't care about my roommate and I know she was wondering why I was up so early but she couldn't ask to avoid getting snubbed again. After the dress up, I looked at my mirror and it was giving elegant queen, I knew my mirror would be happy having me regularly now. I decided to take few pictures to at least update my page and introduce myself to my new fans. I did a post with a short introductory capture, I switched off my phone and left, remember Zen coffee shop is strictly against the usage of phone at work time. I stepped out looking hot like always, I will make sure I keep to this new resolution, I said to myself.
Lots of stares and appreciation, I was just smiling and waving like mini celebrity. Some of them were even at my live stream, it's good being so influential; thank almighty for Mr. Nich.
Getting to the park, the young men loading the cab kept on praising me as usual, the other one even made a promise to marry me, I was just feeling myself. I'm gradually becoming genuinely happy again and wish it would never stop, I wanted to go back to that cheerful Clara I had always been, no problem, no rivals, no beef but Jessica and my roommate were making it seem impossible.
Grateful I got to our coffee shop before my boss and thanks to Almighty I made it this time, I walked majestically like a queen into the shop, they were just staring like I was a new person, Jessica was on a dark shade, I guess she cried a lot and got a swollen eyes, but it called for a celebration. It's really bad how you give out what you can't take. Karl as usual came to greet me, we exchanged greetings but I tried not giving him much audience and opportunity for questioning, my mind is really not comfortable with him.
My boss is not yet here, I needed to taunt them before we resume for our daily activities.
I walked up to Jessica to at least greet her, something I had never done since we started the beef, lolz. The funny thing was that, I can't even remember having a fall out with Jessica, we were cool but not friends, I really don't like staying close to her or discussing with her, it's either hip comparison or complexion, she is always comparing herself to me and that makes me uncomfortable.
"Hey pretty Jessica," I said mockingly.
She couldn't raise her face to watch me, hot tears streaming down her cheek but she deserved it, it's so funny how dramatic she is; she was dressed in a black attire like she was mourning her loss, but who mourns with a full make up.
I also promised to be extremely careful now because Jessica I know must surely come for revenge, "Your cohorts should help you dry your tears while the others should get you an analgesic," I said laughing out loud.
Jessica didn't care to respond, she was so broken and the other ladies were trying to calm her down, it's a very happy feeling seeing your enemies hurt without you coming for them, such a pitiful situation, her account was close to 20000 follower and she felt like she can bully because she has a larger fan, life doesn't work towards our own direction all the time.
We waited for our boss till she arrived, she is always coming at a particular time, I wonder if she has a reminder or a speed setting. Our opening time is 7am but workers should be in shop before the boss. My boss is not also a social media person, though she paid someone who manages our shop page online making adverts and others.
She doesn't know about the saga and I cannot even tell her that, she would be so disappointed at Jessica, and the action may end up costing her job, but I didn't want to go that extreme, I had already gotten more good, so evil is not an option for me.
I'm really eager to see Mr. Nich again, maybe because of the help or other reasons. Mr. Nich became my personal customer, he would always come and request for my service even when I'm busy, he would comfortably wait till I'm done. I found myself slowly falling in love, but I knew it's a bad decision, he isn't my class and wouldn't want anything to do with me even if he is humble, it's to an extent. Not being inferior, Mr. Nich is too perfect to be mine, have you seen him, with the exception of personality and wealth , Mr Nich is a demi god, making research about him turned to my new hobby. I found out about his family and everything about him was so perfect, never knew the wealthiest CEO is also a known barrister, but he chose business over his profession.
Mr Nich always respond to me calmly, but I guess he was just being nice. I think he has found out I love him, but I don't want him to. I don't want him to be far away from me , I don't want my feeling for him make him uncomfortable,so I rather be a secret crush forever.
I don't also understand Mr. Nich, he is also contributing to my feelings, always buying gifts and sounding so loving. It's lovely how he gave me his valentine and also celebrated me during the international women's day. I felt so loved, but what thing I don't know is his relationship status and I can't even imagine two of us in it. My colleagues were already turning it into their cheap gossip, but I don't care.
In Jessica's voice, he will use her and dump her, I'm convinced she isn't his class. It's always funny when I hear these, because she wanted the treatment but I got it.
It's funny how you aren't dating, but being taken care of.Download Novelah App
