Stolen moments

Chapter 7(B)

Pic of what Hunter's office looks like...

I stood beside Mr Fox as he introduced me to my fellow colleagues. Every contractor or project manager has his or her own working space, in which he has people working under him.

"Guys... Meet our new interior designer, Miss Leah Martinez. She will be working with us so i urge you to be in your best behavior, be nice and if she needs help or anything at all,please endeavor to help her"

They all murmured a reply as i heard hi's and hello's from different corners in the large room. I followed Mr Fox as he showed me to my desk. It was a big round desk with a laptop and other office materials on it. I gently placed my carton filled with my belongings on it looking around.

"I will leave you to settle down, but remember you have a meeting with the CEO by twelve noon, okay?"

"Alright sir... Thank you so much" he nods giving me a kind smile before heading to his desk which over sees our desk. I look around, taking in the interior of the office. Half of the office, the walls were made of glass so you can see who is going in and out of the company. The rest of the walls were normal looking walls.

I start setting up my table, bringing out my sketch book, jotter, books, a picture of mum and the twins, a picture of Rosalia and I. I was still setting up my desk when two of my colleagues walked up to me.

One was male and the other a female. The guy was dark skinned and good looking, his hair was in a low afro cut, his skin fits him perfectly along with his brown eyes, he gave me a smile which brought out his incredibly deep dimples, i smiled back a little. The ebony haired girl beside him with green eyes and extremely pale skin which reminds me of Edward Cullen also smiled as returned the gesture.

"Hi... Am Sam, am the unit architect and she is Ciara, the unit purchasing agent"

"Hello" I shake hands with the duo as they both look friendly. 

"Nice to meet you Leah and welcome to Knight's Corps.. I hope you enjoy your stay here and if you need anything or you want to ask questions, don't fail to inform us" Ciara finished with a warm smile.

"Thank you, am grateful for your kind gesture"

We talked for a while before they leave me to get acquainted to the place. There are seven people working in the unit making me the eight person.

I sigh going through my laptop as i wait for the CEO to finish up the meeting. Forty minutes later, Mr Fox worked up to me, telling me the CEO was ready for me.

I let out a deep breath as i stood up, some of my colleagues wished me luck as i step out of our working space. I followed Mr Fox as we go towards the elevator.

We got to the top floor as Mr Fox said his greetings to the busy secretary, who replied us absent mindedly as she looked so indulged in her work.

"Leah... I need you to listen to me. Mr Knight can be really strict and scary but whatever question he asks you, be truthful with your answer. You seem like a intelligent and hardworking person and a girl who knows what she is doing and i want that kind of person in my unit so please give it your best shot cause the CEO is really interested in our work."

I nod at his train of words or should i say pep talk, he sounds nervous.

"I will give it my best sir" I said assuredly.

"Good that's the spirit, that is what i want to hear, now off you go" he shooed me away as the secretary stood up, showing me to the office.

We stop in front of the door which looks posh yet scary, she gives a timid knock before opening the door to enter as i followed suit.
