A grave mistake

Amya was awakened by the sound of the alarm in her room from the alarm clock. It was the alarm for her to wake up and prepare for work. The thought of going to work gave her cold chills, she just could not face David after the previous night's incident.

Although, David was the first one to initiate the kiss, she also was as guilty because she responded to it. Just as she was thinking, the scene of last night's kiss flashed in front of her eyes and she quickly shook it off but her heart was already running a marathon in her chest and her cheeks were beet red because of the scene.

She then placed her hand on her chest to calm herself down and she uttered, "What is wrong with me? I mean it was just a kiss right? And it's not like it's my first kiss anyways and besides it was an accident and it will never happen again. So just forget it ever happened Amya and get to work and if you happen to come face to face with the boss just act neutral like last night never happened. Yeah! I can do that! I hope?"

After saying these words she went to the bathroom and freshened up and later she came out of the room wearing a white blouse and a light pink skirt which hugged her body's figure perfectly showing off her beautiful curves and hips. She also wore light pink stilettoes and had light make up on and she also opened her long curly hair at the left side and pinned the other on the right side with a pink plastic diamond hairpin.

When she reached downstairs, she expected to see her mother, but her mother was nowhere to be found and it seemed like she had left for work already. Amya served herself some cereal and after she finished eating she left for work.

As soon as Amya arrived at work, all the self-confidence she had when she left home about facing David with a neutral expression, acting as if she had forgotten what happened between them the previous night went down the drain. She was shaking ever since she arrived at the company. Her heart was already racing in anxiety with the thought of bumping into David and reliving the memories of last night's events.

She almost felt like slapping herself because of her stupid nervous wish of not bumping into David at the company when in reality she was his P.A. so she had to face him no matter what, unless she quits the job. So after fighting with her nervous unsettled thoughts for a long time, Amya then made her way to David's office. When she arrived she found him not present in the office, she heaved a sigh in relief then started wandering around in the office.

A realization hit her when she remembered that for the past month that she started working as David's assistant she had not really explored David's office before, she would just come and go on certain errands but she never took into account to explore her boss' working space.

She firstly walked over to the office's wooden filling cabinet and explored its magnificent structure, unlike her office which was entirely made out of concrete, steel and glass and plastered in white, David's office was plastered and barred with cedar wood everywhere, it was like a homely office and his desk was made out of cedar wood and top of it was a black high tech computer.

Amya noticed some picture frames on the desk, some pictures had David with two adults a man and a woman whom she presumed were his parents, some had him with some business people which Amya presumed were some of the shareholders and investors of the company.

When she was about to turn to explore somewhere else, her eyes caught sight of a certain picture which was hidden among the others, it had David standing and hugging a certain woman who looked just about her age, she had white creamy skin, green eyes, long golden blonde hair, pink lips, flat nose, medium sized breasts and visible curveous hips, she had similar looks to the adult woman with David in some of the pictures and also with David so she presumed that she was David's sister. When she was about to lift the picture and admire it more an authoritative voice suddenly boomed inside the room with a loud, "stop!!"

Startled Amya jumped and almost dropped the portrait on the floor but she quickly held it tightly to prevent it from falling and she turned around only to get greeted by an angry looking face of her boss. Seeing David's angry face Amya could not help but feel cold drops of sweat on her forehead, she knew that this could be the end of her because she was caught snooping inside the boss' office without his permission and by the look on his face showed that he was greatly pissed with the situation.

To calm the tense atmosphere, Amya uttered a, "good morning sir!" which was never replied but turned the atmosphere even tenser. Amya could not help but swallow her own saliva in fear of what was going to happen to her in the next moments. David still did not utter another word and he still stood at the doorway staring angrily at Amya and the picture frame which she was holding and after what seemed to be hours of scary silence.

David finally walked towards Amya and stood in front of her, staring at her intently from head to toe, after a few moments of scrutiny observation, the angry expression on his face turned into a disgusted and hurtful expression.

Without waiting for further reactions, David forcefully pulled the picture frame from Amya's hands and placed it back on the desk and he turned and looked at Amya and said, "Get out! I said get out!!" Shouted David angrily at Amya.

Amya immediately dashed out of David's office and went to her office and shut herself inside. She went and sat on her chair and placed her hand on her chest to calm down her racing heart and unknowingly tears started to pour out of her eyes and run down her cheeks, she never expected to see this part of David, it was so scary that it shook her to the bones.

The memory of David's angry, scary, disgusted and hurt face was still strongly vivid in her mind and the hurtful and rude way that he told her to get out of the office was still striking her heart greatly, she did not expect to experience this side of David at all. She always looked at him as a strong, kind, generous and happy man, not the man that she just saw a few minutes ago.

Although she knew very well that she is to blame because she was snooping around his office without permission but his reaction was the one which scared her the most and deep down she secretly wanted to know why he behaved that way but she quickly shoved the need away and told herself that it was none of her business. After a few more moments of calming herself down she then began her work.
