Love in 10 day§ (Unedited)

Day two (The designs )

A call on my phone quickly woke me up from sleep, I slowly picked the call without checking who it was "asalamu alaikum" I said as I picked up the call "wa'alaiki sallam, its kabir" the person said "o!! yea you called me yesterday right" I said "yea I did, we met yesterday at NPC" he said, "yea I remember" I replied, "well was just calling to see how you are doing" he says, "well thanks I guess, doing great" I said, "good" he says "O!! k well thanks for your concern bye" I said as I hung up the call. I looked at the time it was already 3:35 I wanted to go home but didn't know what time the office closed. I watched the time as it reached 4:00 on the dot. I really had to ask what time to go but didn't know who to ask didn't want to ask Ahmad because it would seem unserious of me so I decided to ask flora down at the reception. As I stood to open the door a knock on the door came "Fatima may I come in" Ahmad asked and I quickly went back to my sit "yes please do" I replied, "asallamu alaiki" he said as he entered the office, I anwered "wa'alaika sallam", now he starred at me with a smile on his face then lowered his gaze "have you prayed??" he asked and I shook my "no I haven't" I answered, "well please do and when you are done, please come meet me in my office" he said politely, then he walked out of the office, I did as I was told, I prayed and went straight to his office after I was done, "asallamu ailaikum" I said as I knocked on the door, "wa'alaiki sallam, come in" he commanded and I did, now I didn't receive the usual smiling face but a straight face, "well, as you know your work starts today" he said and I nodded, "well, as the director of the advertising sector in this company you are to follow me meet designer and receive products and so" he said and I looked at him in understanding "so right now, we are both going to see a designer and you tell me what you think" he said, now looking at me before looking away "is that clear" he said and I answered "yes sir", "good go get ready, and meet me in the parking lot in five minutes" he commanded and I did as I was told, I went down to the parking lot after I picked up my bag, he was waiting and immediately I entered the car he drove off, it was a really long and quite drive, he kept a straight and serious face, and I kept silent, before I finally broke the silence "thank you so much" I said smiling, "for what" he asked, "the job, thanks very much" I said, "don't thank me" was all he replied, the way he said it this time didn't seem polite at all, but I didn't say a word "just don't break my brother's heart" he said, the way he said it didn't make it seem like a plea at all but in fact a treat, I didn't get the sudden change in his behavior, I could remember I had seen him yesterday and today up till the time for Asir prayer he kept a smiley face, and a polite tone but now the tune in his voice was different, I guessed something most have spoilt his mood or he was trying to be the serious boss, so I didn't say a word, we finally arrived at wooden work shop in a kinda deserted area, he parked in front of the work shop, "let's go" he commanded, as we both opened the door, and left the car, we walked straight to work shop and entered, the interior was way different from the exterior, it was beautiful, I looked around and saw lot's of cloths, I figured the designs he meant now were on cloths, the work shop wasn't as small as it seemed from the outside, "sit" he said, point at chair and I did as I was told, he stood far from the chair as a door opened, and a person came out, it was 'Sameerah mahmoud' the best Abaya designer, she was famous for her work, I personally was a big fan of her designs I had some few, but just few cause I couldn't afford alot. I smiled as I saw her "asallamu alaikum" she said as she entered with a smiley face, we both answered with a smile, she picked up a book and handed it to Ahmad, "Mr. Mukhtar, here are the designs you asked for", Ahmad took a quick glance at it then said this time politely , "give it to her please", she turned and smile at me then handed the book over to me, in it where drawings of different designs of Abaya's they were beautiful and colorful, I was amazed, I smiled "what do you think" she asked with a friendly smile "they are beautiful Masha Allah" I said and now her smile got wider, she turned to look at Ahmad who was now smiling, looking at the window "what about you sir" she said, wow she gave Ahmad so much respect, "have I ever not liked your work" he said and she blushed, "so you like it??" she said again and he answered "absolutely" he was really nice, he said that even though he didn't really see the work, I thought as I looked at her smile and look at him, she was staring at him while he gazed at the window, I looked at her and I could tell she really liked him, I smiled at the thought "let's go" he commanded, again with that rude tune in his voice, "can't you at least stay a while" she said, 'for what?' I thought but didn't say a word, "I am so sorry, but we have other places to go, please send the designs to the company so as to start production" he said to her politely, and she nodded "thank you" he said as we left, now back to the car, "plea" he said before pausing then saying "start thinking of ways to advertise these designs, organize a fashion show" he commanded, it seemed as if he was going to say please to me before he paused and thought again, why was trying to be rude to me I didn't get it, it was as if he had mixed personalities one minutes he is nice and the other minutes his trying to be rude, which doesn't even fits him nor his voice, he had a kind of calm voice, deep but calm. 'why the sudden hatred' I thought "you understand right" he asked and I answered "yes sir", "are we going some else again" I asked and he nodded, now we arrived at a beautiful mansion, he parked at front of the mansion and gave his key to the valet, we both walked in to the door which was opened by one of the maids, "is your boss in" Ahmad asked politely and she nodded "I would inform him of your arrival sir" she said as she went up the stair case "thank you" Ahmad said and she smiled, we went into the living room and Ahmad sat down on a couch, I followed and did the same in a far away couch, now a man I didn't know walked in, "Ahmad mukthar" he said now shaking hands with Ahmad, "Mr Edison" Ahmad said, the man smiled now pointing at me "now who is this" he said as I immediately lowered my gaze, "Ibrahim's wife to be" he answered, and the man smiled "what a lucky man" he said, I tried to lower my gaze but I smiled and secretly raised my eyes to see Ahmad's reaction which seemed, to be either anger or sadness I couldn't tell though, just then a lady came out with a bikini, now walking straight to the middle of both Ahmad and Mr Edison,, immeadietly she did Ahmad turned and said "subhannallah", the lady chuckled, I noticing what happened smiled also lowering my gaze, I was impressed at how fast he turned it seemed kinda like reflex, Mr. Edison now turned, and shouted "I told you not to come out like this", "why' she asked, "I explained this to you, just go" he shouted and she did, "Am so sorry" he said, and Ahmad turned back to the direction of Mr Edison "it's okey, but I think from now on all meeting should be held at the office" he said then turned to my direction and said "let's go" now I noticed whenever he turned to my direction he never looked at me he only turned to my direction then looked at the floor, it was good but he had a way of making it seem as if it was out of arrogance, I quickly stood up and we left, in the car I could sense that he was angered by what took place at the mansion, but he didn't show he just kept a straight face, now he were held up by traffic, he looked at the time, it was 6:12, "I am sorry, we usually close by six but now I made you close later than the closing time on your first day" he explained, still trying not to be polite I don't why, he still kept a straight face, now we got into traffic, and which was really slow, "your friend" he said, then paused, "Jidda right" he completed and I smiled, did he like Jidda too, how he remembered to talk to about her at the moment, "yes" I answered, "what did she study ??" he asked, "sociology" I answered and he smiled, 'he definitely likes Jidda' I thought, "that's good" he said, "I was thinking maybe you would need a person assistant, sectary or something" he said and I smiled, as if he knew "so you can hire her, if you wish" he said, "thank you" I said, and all he said was "don't thank me, please" he said and now I realized he wasn't being rude but in fact modest, and maybe trying to be boss and not the brother in law, I smiled "do you have anything you would like to pick up in the office" he asked, "no" I answered, and he took a turn and took me straight home, he dropped me at the door step of the house. I opened the door to leave before he called me back "inform Jidda, she starts tomorrow, and I would come pick you up by 9 so be ready" he said as I left the car, and he drove off. I went straight into the house where I met Jidda and my sister sitting in the living room, I guess waiting for me, I greeted them both and went straight to the room to pray my magrib, after I was done I went to eat dinner, as usual it was ready, I sat and began eating when Jidda came in, "so??" she said sitting close to me, I looked her and she asked "how was your first day at work??" she asked, I sighed, "really stressful, boring at first, but later it got really stressful" I explained , "really??" she said winking "did you see Ibrahim" she said, and I nodded, "he came to see me and we went out" I said and she smiled "wow!! Interesting, is my friend starting to fall in love with her future husband" she said, lol weird right normally it was a different statement and it wouldn't be surprising if a girl was falling for her future husband, because he is to be her husband after all but in my case it was different, "not really" I said, "at least not yet" I said for reasons I still don't know, it just came out, and she chuckled, "so there is hope" she said and I smiled "didn't say that" I said, "well that's by the way, you got a job" I said, and she smiled "excuse me what??" she asked, "you heard me, Ahmad gave you a job, he said I should tell you to start tomorrow as my P.A, all of a sudden he started talking about you, I think he likes you too" I said and she smiled, "too?? I didn't say I liked him, and please stop joking sis, anyway really about the job?" she said really fast then asked while blushing she clearly liked him and I nodded just then Ruqayyah walked in "what job" she asked and Jidda smiled, "our brother in law to be gave me, a job as her P.A" she said happily, "wow!! That's great" ruqayyah said and just then the Adahn for isha prayer was called and we all kept quite to follow the Adahn, after it was over and we had done the du'a for the Adahn, ruqayah said "well how was work", "fine alhamdulilah " I answered as I now stood up and took my plate to the kitchen, where I washed it "I am going to pray, and immediately I going to bed, I am so tired, so goodnight" I said and they replied, as I went to my room prayed and slept off immediately.
