Consequences

After we got all drunk and talked and made nasty things, I got up to go as the bottle became empty. "I have some projects to finish, by Laura, Goodnight," I said but it is actually 3 am and Laura was asleep a long before.

I have been waffling where to go. I'm in the middle of the road. I am swaying left and right. I have no balance.

A black Audi car has stopped in front of me. I'm not in my sense. The light of the car is irritating me.

"Hey, you! turn off the light then only I will move" My eyes shrunk.

I woke up on a cosy bed. I stretched my legs and hands and leaned on the bed and regained breathing. I am dizzy.

"The room is so bright. It is like heaven." And I thought this can't be my room and finally, for a moment I thought I made my place in heaven. My head is aching heavily.

Water. Where is the water? My vision is blurry.

"Is there any water?" Ahhh someone please serve me some water, please.

A glass full of water came." I'm sorry but my eyes can't see properly. I'll do my works myself, aunt Hannah. Thank you so much. You really did a great job" I extended a thumbs up.

I again laid on that bed. "It is good, It's too good"

I now got fully conscious. I scanned the full place thoroughly and I saw a photo of Mr Charles with a young boy captured in a park and I screamed.

"No, remember something!! How have you ended up here??"

Mild fragments of me pulling hairs of him and shouting for another drink, breaking glasses and finally vomiting on him, came to my memory back.

I saw myself changed in new clothes.

When I realized what happened, I struggled to suppress my unease.

When I started crying, he finally pushed through the door. Hearing the door open, I looked over at him and he gave a timid smile.

I drew my knees to cover my face too see him. I was like waiting each day and night for him but now, even he is here but I can't face him.

Then he suddenly patted my back and I turned around.

"You awake at last" he was breathing heavily because he rushed for the stairs.

"I'm sorry Mr Charles. I gave you a hard time. There's no way you could forgive me… but please don't send me out of the company…"

"Don't worry it was not all your fault. I too was drunk yesterday. So, we are even now."

" What really happened..? My clothes…I mean.. Never mind", I murmured.

"I didn't do anything wrong to you and your clothes, you changed into it yourself," He said with his head down

"I didn't mean that way!" I felt some guilt.

"Oh, I am late for work, " My words rushed after seeing the clock.

He chuckled, " Today is Saturday".

"Oh! I need to see my aunt. I want to leave".

"Relax, your friend called and I answered her not to worry and requested to inform your family"

"And about last night I'm sorry too. We did drink a lot and chatted and I left downstairs while you insisted on sleeping here."

We chatted?! Dear God, please give me back my memory.

What had I told him? If, in any case, have I proposed?

"I bought you some clothes and some stuff from my mother. Fresh up and come downstairs," he said humbly.

I got down from the stairs after I made up myself somehow. I am wearing Light Sweat Half Sleeve T-Shirt and black jean while he was wearing a simple white dress shirt and a black pant.

I was wondering he was after all human wearing casual was not weird for a CEO.

"Are you hungry?"

Just as he said the words the calling bell rang, " Perfect timing" He rushed through the door and took the food from the delivery man.

"Have your breakfast" he said as he moved the chair for me to sit and tilted his head to join.

We two finished our breakfast in silence.

After he picked up a juice from the fridge.

I started, " I never knew you were going to be our companies CEO" My voice sounded week.

"I'm just temporary. This company belongs to my friend Kim Wilson. As he got some works in overseas, I am here"

Although it sounds convincing, I somehow thought he was covering something.

"Lucky you, "I said.

"Of course, I am the lucky charm after all," He grinned.

Lucky what? Are my ears working properly??

"Oh, Anna, you're helpless" My mind started scolding itself.

My face turned red.

I think I should get going now. Thanks for all, Mr Charles. I'll definitely repay you someday.

"Thinking of it, Can I get your phone number?" He asked, extending his phone and he is emotionless.

Mm. How can I save my number?… Annie? Anna? Assistant Anna?.

He saved his phone from my typing and undoing fingers by snatching it away from me.

"I'll save your contact," he said and thanked.

"No mention sir, "I rushed to the door.
