Taming You (JhoLet Adaptation)

Chapter 8

Jhoanna's POV

The weeks passed by quickly and the festival was also fast approaching, which made me a little edgy--- hell, not little. It makes me edgy, big time. My itchiness, if it's a word, already reached its highest peak. I just wanted this festival to be perfect just like before. But these people working for me are kinda stupid. They are all stupid. Damn.

"I told you to make three entrances! Why am I seeing only two?!" I ask the stage director and throw him a deadly glare.

"Miss Robles, the third one is in process. I actually wanna ask your comment about it," he said and pulled out a paper, he then showed it
tome.

"Would it be fine if I put it here?" he said again while pointing a particular spot at the paper. My brows arch and think for a while.

"What can you say--"

"Wait, can't you see? I'm still thinking." I cut him off and looked at his sketch. After a couple of minutes, I gave it back to him and told him that it was fine.

"Okay, it'll be done in two days, Miss Robles."

"Alright, do good in your job. I'll be back here tomorrow." I said before turning my heels to walk back to my car.

"What the--?!" I squealed when I came face to face with Colet.

"Woah! Slow down," she said and gave me her usual grin. I arch my brows and clutch my chest, my heart is beating so fast. I don't know if it was because I was startled or because of the reason that I saw this annoying creature after a week.

"What are you doing here?" I ask after calming myself. She's not needed here. She's the head of the photography team and she's not included in the work that is being done here right now.

"I came to take a few shots, you know, for the whole documentary thing," she said showing me her camera that is dangling around her neck. I simply nodded and walked past her, I have a lot of things to do back in my office.

"Off to somewhere?" she jogs and walks beside me.

"Office." said while looking for my car key, not minding my surroundings.

"Jhoanna!" I heard Colet's panicked voice so I looked up. I gasp when she grabs me closer to her. I had my eyes closed because I didn't know what was really happening. After a couple of seconds, she pulled away but her hands were now above my shoulders.

"Are you okay?" she asked. shook my head and looked around. I saw a group of men put down something that looked like a timber and hastily made their way towards me. They bowed down and muttered several 'sorry'. I look back at Colet, giving her a confused look.

"You weren't looking at your way, you almost got hit by that," she said and pointed at the timber. I gasp and look at the men in front of me.

"It's okay, my fault. Please continue your work. I said and they bowed down again before walking away.

"Watch where you're going. You are so prone to danger" Colet said and handed me my handbag, it fell when she pulled me earlier. I sigh and nod my head.

"I'm sorry, I was in a hurry." I don't know what I'm apologizing for.

"Nah, it's fine," she said and held her palm in front.

"What's that?" I ask pointing at it.

"I'll drive you to your office, I'm afraid that you'll get into an accident. Gimme your key," she said, I didn't say anything and just gave her my bag. She doesn't take 'No' as an answer, I just know. She's so persistent. That's what I've observed in the time that I've got to spend with her.
