PART - 3
When i entered my room i heard my phone sing to the tune of ' moves like jagger' of maroon V , ya i am crazy for adam and i went super crazy when he got married and thats the story of my heart break . i zoned out once again thinking about adam , i went to take my phone but dint seeing it was an unknown number . so i just got changed into my pjs and went to watch some grey's anatomy . when i got the call again from the same person , u know it could be a serial killer. then my stupid phone said again ' serial killers don't kill through call '
i finally took the call and answered with caution i heard a male voice , actually a sexy deep one if i should describe it
" hello ! this is lyric , may i know who is this ?"
he laughed a bit and said
" oh dear ! its blue , we met this morning "
i blushed a little and said
" ya ! sorry dint know . anyway whats up ?"
" uhhhh ! nothing just called to say you this is my number "
i laughed out pretty loud
" seriously ? are trying to flirt with me Mr. Parker "
" you could also it that way . anyway i was totally bored , so i thought why not call you ? and what are you doing lyric "
it may sound cliche but my name has never sounded better , it actually makes me remember my mom , she calling my name is the only memory i have of her .
" you sound desperate blue , i was jus watching grey's anatomy ."
he laughed and said
" i never thought you would be so smart to watch those "
"uh ! cummom you need not be smart to watch those , you just have to see those hot guys work their way . and you know what i have never seen one hella good looking doctor in reality . guess what reality sucks "
this time he was laughing really hard
" you know what , your just too unique to be true "
"i am flattered blue , glad you think i m unique "
" ya ! i have always thought "
" what ?"
" nothing ! anyway i am getting sleepy , see you tomorrow .good night "
" tomorrow ? i thought i dont meet you regularly "
" ya ! but from tomorrow thing will be little different . "
"oh ! okay . good night blue "
i smiled , even though i know he cant see
" good night lyrics "
.

next day *
i got up pretty early because , blue said things will be different today , and my stupid brain is exploding for answers . i wore a black pencil skirt and white shirt ,guess i am going with my lucky shirt .
As i stepped out of my room , i saw john coming into home from hospital , he was tired for his own good . When he saw me he gave me a lazy smile and said
" i see your ready early today "
i smiled back and said
" ya ! i have to be little early today and where is emma ?"
" last minute trauma patient , she refused to pass it on to the day doctors , i had a continues surgery night so i just came home "
"okay ! call me when you guys need anything , i have leave bye "
he yelled a bye at the time i stepped out of my home .
I was once again in the reception of my company , i was greeted my emily and said
" oh lyric , you need not take care of the interns , amanda will take care of it "
i was utterly shocked was an under statement of the century , i was pissed totally . i just got the job yesterday and here i was replaced by amanda the commando . brain : ' not the right time to make fun lyric '
" what ??? i just got the job , and i seriously dint plan on playing hide and seek with those teenagers , they are just difficult to control but i promise i will do better next time . please emily , i really need the job right now "
emily laughed at my crazy banter and said
" your not fired lyric , you have been assigned a different job , please go to the conference room . And i know how tough is it to manage teenagers , thats the reason i have an assistant to take care of them ."
she said with a wink .
uffff!!!!!! i just had a panic attack ,if thats even possible .
i said a small thank you to emily and left to find the conference room .
when i went inside the room ,none was there, i think i am once again late or extremely early . i m just going to sit i here until someone finally notice me. i was scrolling down my Instagram page when i heard someone clear their voice . i looked up to see nothing but the smouldering depp blue eyes in front of me with a smirk .
" hi ! I dint notice you before , sorry "
" Its okay lyric ,take you seat , i want to talk to you about something really important first "
i dint realise until then i was actually standing . i smiled back and took my seat opposite to him . he slid down a paper towards me ,more like an agreement. i raised an eyebrow towards him and he said nervously to read it .
i read along the lines to find only that it was an agreement for us to interior design an 7 star rated hotel line , all of their branches from now . This is like a billion dollar jackpot , to be very frank i knew these guys also did interior designing for few hotels but never thought they were this big . i saw blue in shock
" this is so good , but why are you showing me this ?"
i smiled nervously scratching his back neck , oh oh ! this is not a good sign but a sexy one i would admit .
" i actually dont really work here ,you know "
i was shocked but more than that , i dont know what to react
" then ? what do you do in here "
" i am the CEO in making you could say , well my dad owns this company . for now i m jus working on few projects for them "
" oh my god ! you lied to me ? and you just saw me yesterday ? well ! you know what ? you are a natural at this "
i said more disappointed in myself rather than him . he became concerned and sad , he doesn't get to do that , i am the one that should be mad .
" i am sorry lyric but i dont know how to get to talk to you , like you know connect "
" it s not even connecting the dots , anyway what do you need me for ?"
" this project actually is quite a big deal for me , as you would have read it . but i have few issues , so i need your help to get this contract "
i relaxed a bit , took a sip of water and leaned back a little , seeing whether he really means it or not . his eyes were full of concern , then i signed and asked
" what do you really want Mr.Parker "
" Me and my ex girlfriend applied for this tender last year , we were together at that time , so we thought if anyone else gets this project . We made a contract to get the deals shared but later our relationship was broken as well as the deal but now we both got the final strike to get this project . The company now decided to give the contract to me or her based on our 1 year progress and obedience "
i listened to him carefully and gave a slight nod for him to proceed
" So , when it came to the progress part i think i actually did well but in the obedience part i was kinda num "
i questioned him back
" num means ?"
he let out a frustrated grown and said
" I thought being obedient meant u know socially inactive by not clubbing , hanging out with girls and etc , etc "
i once again gave a nod
" But they thought i was not capable to show emotions , so i cant be good at designing spaces romantically as they wanted and on the other side my ex is married and pregnant "
i was kinda shocked , do people really see all these criteria : brain: of course its a billion dollar project.
" oh my god ! 1 year of no dating and girls all for a burnt piece if paper Mr.Parker "
he laughed a bit and said
" that burnt piece of paper costs billions of dollar my dear "
i let a small laugh and asked
" so how can i help you i this "
he once again became nervous and said
" the thing is that lyric , i need a person who i can get engaged to , but you know jus for the eyes of public jus for a year , act like i m madly in love with them . .......... and i thought it could be you "
i was seeing as if he had some unicorn pills . what was he thinking ? he is too crazy for his own good
" are you out of your mind blue ? its worse than a child hearing santa is not real . Its freaking worse than that . "
i got up to leave , even the blue eyed spirit dint budge to stop me like he knew this would happen . When i turned to see him , he was looking down in his hand with guilt tripping on him . i let out a sigh and went and sat near his chair
" blue ?"
he lifted his head in whiff and smiled a little but it was hurt
" are you really hurt ? because i clearly know i am the one who should be hurt "
he smiled and said
" i am sorry lyric , i worked too hard for this thinking it was my last shot to start my own company ,not be under my dad . I just dint know who to ask but when i saw your application i kinda knew i can ask you , you know you felt familiar to me . but you need not do it for me , i can get it "
he said with a sad smile .
" Its okay ! I will do it one 3 conditions "
he was more surprised than me to say
" really ? you really need not do it for me..."
" oh ! shut up i m not doing it for the person i just met a day before "
he smiled and asked
" so what are your 3 conditions ?"
i relaxed a bit leaning back and said
" first i need to work with you in these projects , you know like your design assistant or something like that . you can jus pay me like an employee itself "
he laughed and said
" that's fine with me . you can even have a fair share of the profit "
i smiled and said
"not required ,jus pay me for my work and second one i need you to maintain this lie with everyone , including my dad and i will say only to john and emma "
"fine with me and same with my dad also . I just have 2 close friends too and they already know it . so thats fine "
" And third no funny business when we act as couples with me , if you can get what i mean . i promise to stay till you get that damn deal ! "
they both shook hands like they made a business deal .
When lyric got up to leave the room , blue then said
" and lyric can you shift to my apartment by this weekend and you can take the rest of the week off . From monday you can work with me by assisting "
lyric smiled and said an okay but before she left he called her again saying
" and dont mistake me if i ever fell in love with a girl in the mean time of the year "
lyric felt a disappointed but she had no idea why she felt that way , it was supposed to be acting and its only a day since i met him .
i smiled all the way back to my apartment and also was extremely nervous about how to say emma and john about it .
