Mandy POV
Sandra: so what about my boss what do you think of him
me: which of them I only met one earlier
Sandra: I mean Alex what do you think of him
me: oh that arrogant guy he was rude
Sandra: yeah I know he has that in him but what about his appearance. in my mind I was like extremely handsome but I scrunched my nose
Me:well he's not that bad
Sandra: is that all? (surprised)
Me: it looks like you need me to say something else?
she chuckled
Sandra: no of course not but you Are the first person I'm not hearing the word he's extremely handsome from most girls always drool over him
Me: are you one of them?
Sandra: at first but he's was such a pain in the ass
we both laughed together I paused my step and looked at her
Me: I want to ask you a simple question and I want you to be very sincere with me
she looked serious immediately and face me squarely
Sandra: ok fire on
Me: is he married,? I mean your boss Alex is he married
Sandra: (smile) no he's not but I will be sincere with you he's a Playboy he had a lot of girls on his hand but he's not married why do you ask
Me: well it nothing something happened between us earlier today that's why but it nothing serious I'm sure
Sandra: ok
we both started walking again we went on to another area where there are chairs I'm intentionally leading her there so we could talk and I'm trying to know a lot about the guy that kissed me but what my mind was telling me is not fair to me I really can't do it if I become his friend because of money then I will never be sincere and I love it when people are very sincere to me I hope I don't make a life mistake or should I just ask him to borrow me but what I'm I, who I'm I to ask I was so deep in thought that I forget Sandra was busy talking until she stopped again she faced me
Sandra: what happened to you Mandy is everything really alright with you, you are always drifting away
me: I don't get you" I feinge ignorance
Sandra: a penny for your thoughts you left me now I was on and on about liking your country but you are not even here
Me: but here I am I smiled and we both started laughing
Sandra: you really know how to change situation we laughed again and he just have to come and ruined it for us
Alex: what are you guys up to cupcake
me: where the hell did he come from ( I muttered)
Sandra bow a little but I stand still looking at him he came in between I and Sandra and face me
Alex: so you can speak English?
me: it was so stupid of you to aske that question as you know English was our official language. Sandra retreat immediately with wide eye I'm sure that because I called him stupid he watched Sandra retreated he held my hand firmly and dragged me into a corner my back hit the wall firmly I hissed and cursed
Me: what the hell is wrong with you are you mad or something
Alex: I think you just say the right word now
me: what do you want from me? you can't keep on manhandling me like this and why are you even here in the first place
Alex: you called me
