Fifteen

Liv

I sat quietly in the office Sabastian had left me in. The room was welcoming with the beautiful light, the grey color, white leather thin chair that swirls and the glass wall. The table was a dark shade of brown but right now I was bored and thats all that was dancing in my mind since I got here, even the architecture of the room didn't make me happy. 



I was left alone inside with no one to talk to. I was hoping to spot Sheila pass by so that I would disturb him alittle to company myself and kill the deadly boredom but he didn't show up either. 



I saw some plain papers seated by the printing bored like me and I smiled as a beautiful thought rushed through my head. I went and took a few sheets out, got the pen that was next to my computer and started to sketch out some amazing designs that just come to me. 



I loved designing outfits but getting myself dressed was another story all together. Designing was like another soul to me and it made me happy just doing it. 

That was one of the main reasons I took fashion and design in college. 



" Hi there," I heard a lady's voice call to me. I lifted my head up and my eyes meet dark ones. A beautiful lady with dark short that was leveled by her shoulders. She smiled softly at me before entering completely into my office.



" Did they send you to me?" I asked her alittle confused by her presence. She didn't look like a worker in this building. She looked more like a model with her slender body that looked easy to break.



" No, actually I was just passing by. You know doing my inspection of the office, going to your boss' office when I saw your sketches." She said as she peeked into my sheets of paper that laid on the table. I looked at the big floor to ceiling wall on my left side and realized anyone passing through the hall would see what am doing. No privacy atall. 



" It's nothing really," I said to her trying to dismiss her compliment. I liked compliments though.



" No I love it." She said as she peeked more at a particular sketch. " That dress, do you think you can make it for me, it is perfect for the after party, I will pay anything for it." She seemed desperate. Wow, first day and I got my first customer.



" Miss Crona?" Sheila walked in on us. " The office is actually ahead." He told her. Sheila must have thought the lady was lost on her way to my boss' office. I knew it was Damnon she was talking about. He was the boss right now. 



" Yes I know that," she said in a matter-of-fact tone. "lady think about it okay. I will talk to your boss when I get there." She said to me before leaving with Sheila. Sheila asked me what was up with some gestures behind miss Crona but I couldn't give him details now, so I just shrugged. What just happened was also hard for me to understand. 



After about five minutes, Sheila came saying they wanted me in Damnon's office. She kept her word. Thinking about 'words' and 'Damnon' I wonder if he recalled our tiny little bet we had yesterday.



" Girl I do not know what you showed that lady but wants your design dress so badly. She won't stop talking about it." Sheila told me as we walked to where Damnon was. 



" I didn't even know she was looking at me doing my work." I said to Sheila who was smiling with me amused by the lady's action. 



We entered Damnon's office and once inside Miss Crona came right up to me with a bright smile. I see why Sheila was amused. 



" Perfect I want her dress." She half yelled in excitement and pointed at me. 



" We should discuss it first Miss Crona" Damnon suggested. Worried that the lady didn't quite understand how the things work around here. 



" What is there to discuss? she has the design, I have the money so making the dress shouldn't be a problem, plus am moving my wedding to two weeks from now. I need everything ready by then." She ordered. She really had an attitude that could get to your skin. " You guys can do it right?" She asked becoming serious. 



" Well am sure, the team will be able to get it ready by then." Damnon assured her. He looked at Sheila and I asif for a confirmation that it was possible and Sheila nodded. 



" Great, so I need everything ready five days to the big day, no mistakes." She turned serious at the ending statement. She was scary and sweet at the same time which made me worry alittle on whether we could pull this off to her liking. 



" No mistakes, Miss Crona." Damnon assured her. 



" Great then, I should be leaving now." She said. And turned to leave but I stopped her. Remembering the essential part of designing.



" Don't we have to get some measurements first?" I asked the lady before she managed to escape us. 



" Oh right, I almost forgot, you can take my measurements today and I will ask the rest to come in and you can take theirs too." She said " shall we?" She asked 



" Perfect come with me then." Sheila took her out. I was going to follow but Damnon stopped me.



" Liv?" He called my name making me halt. 



" Yes?" I replied and turned halfway to look back at him. He gazed at me with his reddish brown eyes.



" Where have you been?" He asked tilting his head. 



" I was in my office just next door." I told him. 



" Right, am having a meeting in about ten minutes, could you tag along, it could be a good way to start." He suggested. 



" Sure, but first I have to get Miss Crona's measurements before she leaves." I reminded him 



" Sure go right ahead I will be waiting for you." I nodded to that and was about to leave when " about last night." He said making me stop on my tracks again. That's right we had a small tiny bet. 



" Yes, what about last night?" I pretended to not know. 



" Are you going to full fill your side of the deal?" He asked as a mischievous smile crawled up to his lips. " Because I believe I did mine quite excellently if you ask me."



" You tell me, it's you giving the demand" I leaned back on the door frame and gave him a teasing look.



" Great, I will tell you after the meeting. Am sure we will have enough time after that." He said and the smile on his face scared me alittle aswell as excited me.
