ooking at me with curiosity glaring all over her face from where she was sitting, as the man left she stood up and approached me with her face drowning in smiles and from ear to ear grin.
What I looked at her funny face and a smile played on my lips
Sheshed the box from my hand and began to unbox it
What do you think you’re doing?”
77 just want to satisfy my curiosity.”
“I just hope that curiosity will forever depart from you once you see what’s in there.”
A big smile displayed on her face
When did Hunter come to the office? I didn’t notice him walked in.”
“Oh He has been in his office even before you came in,” she replied, her hands still busy with unboxing the gift box.
Wow!

“Whoa, this is stunning
“Yes it is,” I muttered with my gaze still fixed on the dress in her hands.
My eyes spread wide as she brought out a pair of matching heels from the box.
“Luxury,” she said at the top of her voice.
Shhh I crossed a finger on my lips
“We are in the office,
“I just can’t help it, this right in front of me is beautiful,”
She handed over a note to me that said,
“Perfectly made for you,”
The black beaded sparkling gown with a high above the knee slit in my hand screams luxury and made me want to scream Joud
I had to control myself to avoid creating a scene, the dress is the type that you rarely see.
I checked for the size and found out that it was my perfect size, the shoes too a
“Who is the gift from?”
“Im not sure but I think it’s from Hunter,”
“Really?”
are my size
“He’s in the office, you should go and find out,”
“I looked at her with disbelief, “Are you serious right now, what if he isn’t the one?”
“What if he is the one?” she doesn’t look like she’s giving up
“Okay, fine I will,”
“When?”
“Later, I’m busy now plus he looks like he don’t want me around,”
“What do you mean? the moment he walked into the office you were the first he asked for, and that file he brought earlier I’m sure it was an excuse to see you, he would have called me to pick it in his I but he came out himself
“Come to think of it, what made you say he doesn’t want you around?”
“Well I was looking at him when he came out to give the file, he didn’t look at my direction at all,”
see, why are you trying to punish yourself?”
“How?”
“You love him, and you’re forcefully trying to deny it,”
“Yes, I love him but Sam you know what is at stake here,”

“Yea,
“Okay, just go and confirm if he’s the gifter of this wonderful gifts.”
“Okay, I will,”
I was still standing with a dress in my hand.
“Bring those I will put them back into the box.”
“Yea, thank you.”
1 sighed deeply and adjusted my jeans, I met him seated quietly with a pen in his hand.
“He hello,” I stammered.
He doesn’t look too good.
“I got the gift,
“Hope you like it?”
That’s all I needed to know that he was the one who sent the gift.
“I love them, they are beautiful,”
“Thank you.”
I turned to take my leave, when I felt his hand holding my wrist a cold shiver came rushing down as our hands collided.
“Hope giving up on our love, doesn’t mean you have stopped being my assistant?” he sounded so very gentle.
I figured out that it was because of my absence at the penthouse this morning, that made him ask.
“No, about this morning. I’m sorry I didn’t showed up at the penthouse this morning. I kind of had a rough night,”
He was quiet
“I’m sorry,”
“I love you Eden,” he said and let Go of my hand.
I walked out of the office, Sam was looking at me curiously as I approached her.
“Did he?” She winked playfully.
“Yes he did,”
“I knew it a grin played on her face.
I took my seat, Sam was looking at me in an unpleasant way.
“If you should ask me, I’d say he loves you so much and that is all you need to past through any storm and chaos, I will

“Thank you ma’am, let’s get back to work it’s almost lunchtime,
“Okay.”
She left for her seat while I traced the edge of the desk seeking for calm in the midst of the uprising storm of thoughts.
I tried to focus on the work in front of me, I was still struggling to shove off all the thoughts coming to my head.
“It’s lunchtime.”
“You just go. I still have a lot to do..
“Okay, what should I get for you?”
“Anything soft
“Okay, she left with a smile on her face.
The sound of my phone’s ringing tone distracted what I was doing
“I’m sure I called at the right time,” Ruby said
“No you didn’t, because I’m busy,
It’s lunchtime boo
“Yea, I forfeit my lunch break because I have so much work on my table,”
“What have you been doing since?”
“I just wasn’t in the right frame of mine to work,”
“How would you be in right mind frame when you have choose to deprive yourself of happiness,”
“What do you mean?”
“In you quest of making the right decisions without been selfish consider your happiness, your peace of mind and happiness is a priority,
“What are you talking about?”
“You and Hunter,”
“How did you know?!”
“Sam, she told me, I met her at the mall yesterday after work.
“She told me everything. I will not like to waste your time, we will talk about it some other time, just do whatever makes you happy”
“Okay, thank you,”
“Bye.
Have a good day and my regards to the kids,”
Few minutes later, Sam walked in with a pack in her hand, and she handed over the pack to me.

“You forgot to mention that you crossed paths with my sister yesterday,”
