Chapter 5~ Monster Encounter
EDITED
"Every loss is unprecedented. You can't ever know someone else's hurt, not really- like touching someone else's body isn't the same as having someone else's body."
*John Green- Turtles All The Way Down*
Zahra's POV :
Stepping inside the enormous glass built building, I found the aura extremely pleasant ... Ofcourse to my astonishment.
The entrance hall had intricate patterns of some old fashioned vintages carved on the walls, and besides there stood a tall statue of a man which looked more like a hunk. I didn't look up to his face, because I had no time to waste. It was five minutes to six,and the company manager had asked me to be on time by sharp six.
Waiting eagerly in the hall, I asked the lady on the reception counter to inform the manager that I was here and it's already six.Upon my vigorous insistence, she dialled a number quickly and nodded to what was said to her on the other side.
'' Pls proceed to Hall no. 4 , 6th Floor on the right side. And pls take the visitors elevator. "
She gave me a formal smile and I moved thanking her that I didn't had to wait much.
Everything seemed so Royal, a separate elevator for the visitor staff and a few metres away was the CEO and Assistant elevator, and another one was the employees.
Reaching up to 6th floor was not as such a problem,but for me it was...as I was a claustrophobic.
Closing my eyes shut,I prayed that the lift soon reaches to my place even though 'the soon' was only for 45 secs or so but still I had the fear that started building up slowly again.
Hearing the floor bell of the elevator,I adjusted myself to the atmosphere by quickly stepping out and blinking my eyes for more than a minute. Calming myself down, I took a sip of water from my bottle and then started searching for Hall no.4 .
Wait... Was it Hall 4 or Hall 6 of 4th floor? Ohhh God,I should had noted down what she instructed me. I was really confused and roaming here and there thinking to go to my death zone again (elevator) . It was past 6:15 and I had wasted ten minutes of no use just thinking about where should I go. I walked long corridors,and then turned right but there was no sign of Hall no.4 or 6 whatever it was.
At the end of the hall rooms,there was a large door which really looked magnificent and had the golden signboard which read " Azfar Rehaan,CEO Atlas Limited " .
I stood there for few seconds thinking whether I had heard this name somewhere before as well or it was just it appeared known to me,somehow.
" Congratulations, Miss Zahra !! "
I startled at the voice as it was none other than that monster whom I had faced two days ago and again today he follows me here... Arghh!!
' How the... ' I turned to face him angrily with my hand raised in order to slap his face ,it was more than enough but I had to stop myself when I saw he was peeping out of that magnificent door which read CEO,and that means He was the CEO and...
I kept silent,more likely I was shocked.I didn't expect another encounter from the world's most disliked person I wanted to meet.
' Why are you keeping a watch on me everytime and everywhere ! '
Though,this was a really foolish question to ask as it was his Company and it was his Room and his Everything, so the question gets ruled out completely irrational.
" Won't you say Salaam first? Miss Zahra? Well let me offer you then, Assalam.O.Alaikum !! Come inside pls Bellarina "
' Stop calling me names and I don't regard necessary to say salam to you ( peace should not be sent upon evil ) ... I was just here for my assistant job,but as I now see this is your company and I will have to be your assistant so I better quit '
" Oh Bellarina, Itna ghussa theek nahi hota sehat khrab krdeta hay. ( Too much anger spoils health ) . I have already chosen you as my assistant and you're permanently appointed so there is no way you can run sweetheart "
' JUST SHUT UP ! Mjhe nahi chahye ye job ( I don't want this job ) '
I just turned and as soon as I took one step ahead my upper hand was glided back and I swirled around inside the room , and was few inches close to the CEO. His orbs were fixed into mine and his intense glare resembled wolverine.
" Bellarina, You're supposed to do what I ask you to. Orelse I know how to make people obey my commands "
I was hurt by the ways his words stinged my heart. He didn't know that I was too fragile to handle all this at once.
" I'm sorry Zahra. I know I'm really a rude person , but... I feel very different when I'm around you.. Trust me Bella, you mean much to me "
He looked a little tender while speaking this, but this was not having a glint in his eyes. The words which he spoke seemed empty to me.
' I don't trust your words and neither YOU ! '
" You'll have to! "
Azfar's POV :
I squeezed her arms to the extent where she hissed in pain,but that didn't bother me.
She was making my anger level shoot up beyond my limits, and she was not at all ready to accept whatever I was saying.
" You'll have to ! "
I pressed my nails into her arms,which made her moan.
' Ahh, You have already hurted me. Aur kitna dard doge Azfar?? ( How much more will you torture me Azfar )
Hearing my name from her mouth, I lost all my senses. Though she was not saying anything wrong, but I had no justification for my anger... I was like this...
I left her arm and tried rolling her sleeve up to see the wound I had caused her. But she didn't let me touch her.
Her arm had started to bleed and she was crying. That was it. I had hurted her, and I was in pain too. I could not see her weak, the way she was crying with silent tears hit my heart like a very heavy stone had been placed upon it.
