Well well, look who is here?

As I took the stairs one by one I was hoping that the investors hadn't arrived earlier than I because that wasn't the impression I wanted to create on our first meeting. I wanted them to see, the punctual has it together kind of manager. As I entered my office, my assistant rushed to help me with my laptop bag as he caught me up on today's program, and I was glad when she said that the investors said they will be five minutes late. As I opened the windows and looked down the street, I saw a familiar figure with a straight gait, sharp haircut, and a grey suit just like someone I knew before and for a moment my heart skipped a beat thinking about whom it might have been. I brushed that thought aside, it must be a client as our hotel received high-end clients.

I was taken away from my thoughts with, Zara, my assistant's voice on the intercom, "the investors from J and Sons are here," I replied with a firm voice," Zara please show them to the boardroom and inform them I will be with them shortly." I gathered my laptop and writing materials, straightened my dress, Blue peep-toe heel clanking the marble floor, I walked towards the boardroom. And always like a routine, I murmured to myself "here goes nothing" as I pushed the double doors and greeted the guests with professional confidence, "good morning gentlemen and welcome to Mr. k's hotel" as I walked to my seat at the end of the long boardroom table as the gentlemen took their seats. I nearly missed my chair and fell on my bottom when I saw who stood directly opposite me, mesmerized and in all his handsome glory. Time stopped as we stared at each other in shock.

I had called the hotel to inform them that we will be five minutes late. It was one skill I had learned in the course of doing business that if you were going to run late, call and inform the other person how long you are going to be late for. This was a sign that you could be trusted and that you are honest and transparent. When we arrived, the secretary to the manager showed us to the board room and informed us that the manager will be with us shortly. Just as we sat, I could hear footsteps coming toward the boardroom and stop for a split second and then the double doors ushered in a sexy woman whose back was turned to me from where I sat. I did not hear what she said but like I was on autopilot I stood up as the other gentlemen I was with because I could not forget that voice anywhere. I would rather forget everything including my name but not her voice.

When she was about to sit, I could see her bewilderment as she recognized me. Time stopped and Damn! She was prettier than I last saw her. Her face was a bit chubby, she wore no makeup, simple yet elegant, pretty and graceful, just like I remembered her. As my eyes traveled down every inch of her body, I appreciated her beauty until I reached her stomach and I just couldn't stop staring. Why is she pregnant? Of course, she had sex dummy! But with whom? I swear I will kill that bastard! Is she married? Of course, every man will kill to have her by their side! Wait does she have a wedding band? Let me…

I was interrupted by her sweet voice when she said, "Sir, please have a sit so that we can begin. Once again welcome to our establishment. I am your host and manager of this pristine establishment. I am Miss Sabrina Zawadi."
