The next day,
“Hey, sweetheart!” Summer greets me as she kisses my cheek before pulling me into a hug.
“Good morning sunshine” I gleam at her as she grins.
“Yup, that’s me” she says spinning around and giggling.
“You’re extra excited this morning”
“I’ve got good news” she squeals.
“Tell me already”
“So, I got an email from a company yesternight and it’s not a company babe. One of the biggest Cooperation in New York damnit”
“For real?” I ask in disbelief.
“See ” she hands her phone to me. “They are opening their newest building next week and they ask us to be in charge of all the pastries for the day. I can’t Fuçking believe it. It feels like a dream”
I hang open my mouth perplexed when I see the name. The Smith Inc.
“What? The Smith, Fuçking Smith bro!!” I scream.
“Yes, baby ” she grins.
“How did even they get to know a small bakery like ours?”
“I don’t know, maybe someone introduced us. It doesn’t matter though, all I know is we are doing this and we are going to make a lot of money yay” she says screaming the money.
“Of course, have you replied?”
“Of course, I already have the contract cos I know you can’t say no to something like that”
“Of course, I can’t”
“So you have to go there to speak to the CEO, what’s his name? Do you know?”
“Adam Smith?” I asked.
“No Adam Smith has retired and his son has taken over, I’m just trying to remember his name”
“Wait are you not supposed to go instead, you are the manager”
“No, I’m not. I have to arrange help for us. The two of us can’t do it alone”
“Yeah, true”
“Make sure you dress nice”
“Yes, boss” I say and give her a salute.
She laugh “Come on let’s get to work”
The day went well, we had few sales even though we don’t seem to care because we are over-excited. We kept talking about different recipes we could use till we lost track of time.
I still wonder how we got this contract, there are other big bakeries and restaurants in New York, but they chose us instead. A big company like that. I’m starting to think that this is a prank.
But wh@tëver it is, I’m going to find out tomorrow.
**
So, tomorrow has come and now I’m up early to get ready.
As for my outfit, I settle for a blue Skirt and a beige button-up shirt. The sleeve is short and it’s kind of a transparent material so I’m wearing a strapless top that looks like a tube before putting on the shirt. I tuck it inside the skirt before checking myself in the mirror. I turn around admiring my hourglass body but frowns when I realize my stomach has gained more fat. Wh@tëver, it’s going to remain that way, there is no way I’m hitting the gym or starting a diet because I want a flat tummy, this fat is a gift from God.
Gosh, the last time I dressed like this was when I was in college. I never liked it. I don’t know why Summer insisted I dress like this, I planned to wear just a Jean and a top.
I did a light makeup, just mascara, and eyeliner Fuçk I struggled with that for a while. A little powder on my face then lipgloss. This is always my makeup routine except for the eyeliner and powder.
I put on my blue flat shoe and grab my bag.
The Taxi stops in front of the Smith famous huge building. I’ve not entered the building before, this will be my first.
I pay the driver and get out of the car to walk toward the building. I inhale sharply and start to walk in.
The first person I see is the receptionist. I throw a warm smile as I walk toward her.
“Hi, I’m here to see the CEO”
“Third floor, you can use the elevator” she simply says not glancing at me.
I roll my eyes.
Of course, I know I’m using the elevator, ma’am.
I smile at her again before walking away.
I reach the third floor which is quiet, unlike the first floor. I walk to the Secretary’s table.
“Hello” I greet making her look up and flash me a small smile.
“Hello, how can I help you miss?”
“I’m here to…”
“Oh, you must be Miss Beverly Dash” she cuts me off.
“Yes, I am”
“Right, please follow me Mr. Smith has been expecting you.” She says and stands up.
She stops at a door that has the description CEO’s office written on it. She knocks twice before opening the door, she enters while I stay back.
“She’s here sir” she tells the man inside
“Let her in” the deep voice says making my body shiver in fear.
It seems like this person knows me, how?
“You can go in ” the Secretary tells me and left, leaving me by the door. I stand still, like I’m frozen.
“Are you not coming in?” the deep voice says again breaking me out of my reverie.
I slowly and quietly walk in closing the door behind me before finally locking eyes with the face behind the Voice.
The so-called CEO, is a young, handsome man. And he kind of look familiar, I can’t recall where I’ve seen him before.
Maybe on TV, he’s popular anyways So it’s possible I saw him there.
Then my eyes catch the sight of the board on his table that has his name bodly written on it
Fuçk, the name. The name rings a bell. I look back him, then it all came to me like a wave. I let out a low gasp taking a step back.
“Nice to see you again Beverly” he smirks at me looking at me with amusement.
Fuçk!!
