9: Past Friends

"We don't meet people by accident. They are meant to cross our paths for a reason."

"Wow Ms. Rita!" Pamela basically screamed after Michael and Jordan left the office to theirs so to get things cleared up before they switch offices.

"Woah. What did I do?" Valerita asked innocently.

"Don't act innocent." Pamela retorted. "You have two hot, heavy, really intimidating and successful men head over heels after you."

The thought suddenly made Valerita blush profusely.

"Just one lunch and club night with one while only a conference meeting with the other. Impressive." Pamela continued.

"I don't know what you're taking about." Valerita turned around, not wanting to face her.

"Uh huh. Anyway. You've got a double date tonight. Let's go choose what you're going to wear."

Twenty outfits, seventeen hairstyles, eleven nail polishes, six make up washes and four diamond trials, Valerita finally ended up wearing a not so dressy yet sexy violet and red dress that reached above her knees with hot red heels and violet bag. Finished up with her hair left flowing down having only a small diamond pin on her left, matching with the sweet tear drop diamond necklace and earings on her. She wore a little light make up to make her look more presentable. But applied dark red nail polish to be a hot tease, after Pamela and Christy's restless hammering.

"You look lovely Ms. Rita." Christy complimented.

Valerita smiled warmly at her.

"You look damn sexy, ma'am. Those two men will fall on their knees on your arrival." Pamela smirked.

Valerita was glad she had a friend like her. And a heck of an employee too.

Valerita's cellphone rang and she picked it up almost inhumanly fast.

"Hello?" Valerita said into the phone.

"It's Michael here. I'll be up in five minutes."

"Great. I'm ready." Valerita said and ended the call.

"You got the papers ready Pam?" Valerita asked.

"Yup. The file's in your bag." Pamela confirmed.

"Good. Thanks so much you two. You can stay as long as you like, Pam. And don't wait for me Christy, I'll probably be late."

Valerita said her goodbyes and lashed a hug at each of them before reaching towards the elevator, only to see Michael coming out of it.

He looked gorgeous in his black faded jeans and dressy red shirt finished off with a shabby hairstyle that just made him look hotter than usual. He was holding a black leather jacket too.

For some unknown reason, Valerita had the crazy idea that Michael was trying to impress her. Well, she wasn't going to give him the satisfaction.

"Oh good. You're here." She said and strode towards him.

Michael opened up his arms for an embrace. That smile on his face seemed like there was nothing in the world that could take it away. Nothing that could take her away from him.

Valerita stopped abruptly infront of him. "Where's Jordan?"

Suddenly, jealousy took the smile away from his face. Michael was angry. No. Furious. Her words stung.

"He's waiting downstairs? We should hurry up." Valerita walked past him into the elevator. "C'mon."

There was nothing Michael could do but follow her.
