Chapter 4 First day in office

ETHAN POV:

Today was office first day. I had an amazing day with workloads and Alice. Don't know why seeing her makes me less worry.

Yeah yeah....I know I scolded her becuase of an psycho girl but still guys we take out our anger also on our loved one's.

Well such an love philosophy on such an unknown feeling actually attraction. Looking at her never makes me bore nor arguing with her makes me go heated.

Whenever I see her I feel mesmerised my argument, fun element, peace, happiness everything gets on her. My whole focus just sticks on her and makes me smile madly sometimes not externally but internally?

Such a crazy person I am. Btw today she was working hard and I saw her strictness more towards work. She rejected most of the designs made by our team.

Alice made some designs and had some in her bag and showed to our team. I can't believe she was such an amazing designer.

Now I know why dad wanted me to heir her in our company God she is so skillful. Btw getting her as my no our business company is not a loss deal nor a compromising decision?

She was directing our staff strictly and announced she doesn't wants any mistake. She will launch her first summer collection in 1 month. It should be an hit show and all her collections should be amazing and tempting to take.

Not only for women's/girl, men's/boy but for children's too. She wanted her collection to be hit at any cost. It should be for everyone was her only purpose so that anyone coming in the party to watch our show must buy something from our collection.

Well we had an hectic day guiding our team, instructing and making some rules, meeting with them, coping of with them. We tried our best to not make ourselves typical conservative boss and were polite with them.

Some people's are always there who stills gets an reason to hate you but you have to be with them. Your love, care or politeness should not be changed but if they break your trust we must show them their worth.

Alice was whole day coping up with our team and guiding them to get the best in themselves. She was already someone's favourite and most of them disliked her too. Alice was just more focused with her work as she loves it and praises a lot so being strict was reasonable. She didn't got bothered by it at all and was equally giving guidance and importance to everyone.

I was busy with clients, marketing, upto date news, shareholders, share market status and lots of files. I was damn tired and didn't had rest for once.

And she being workaholic didn't took rest at all. We had lunch in our cabins. I was staring her through glass wall but she enjoyed her food alone. I thought to go near her first and have lunch together but workloads were enough to not bother her but just stare her.

I was attending many calls and my secretary she was just fixing up appointments for me. "I was like please could you spare me for a sec. Why are you lining up so much for me even I am a human", I said in a tired tone.

"Sorry sir but there are many works pending from 3 days and it is making your schedule busy", she said.

I nodded my head and my body was giving up. She left from office at 2 pm. She had important classes I guess but she managed her work nicely directing her.

Fear of her anger and strictness made team go as per her words. I was amazed and happy by her attitude and work.

Before she left I talked about designing jewellery too but she said we will surely do but after a great launch and awesome resoonse. I agreed as she sounded right CAS company should get famous first.

Dad and uncle were keeping an eye on us as they were with us too se how we are working. And they were impressed I guess as they had a smile plastered on them.

Well I was happy to make them satisfied atlast as I am hell scared of dad. He was always strict on me from starting and that's the reason I was out all these years from home.

I am never comfortable around him as he gives goosebumps. I do whatever he likes or will like to get in good terms with him. But it never happened he was always strict, emotionless and scary for me till now he is too.

I wonder Does he hate me? Am I his unwanted child? Am I so bad and unwanted for him that in such an early age he send me far away from them. My whole life till now was less cheerful, happy family type, loving, caring, affectionate, adorable, memorable.

It was all about strictness, sorrow, loneliness, scary, lawful, rules and regulations, good marks, unsatisfying, crying. It always makes me to run away from those days and I just want to be with them.

My life has no good memories with family nor vacations. It was always bad for me I love everyone but I guess no one loves me.

I just hate it but then I remember I have to be patient, tactic, cool and a good businessman. May be my thoughts or questions are many and I won't get answers. So it's better to deal with it by ignoring or forgetting.

I left my office late I was very highly cooped up but I managed everything. I went home at 7:35 pm. Got fresh quickly and came down for dinner with family.

Mom served me and sat beside me to have dinner. Well atleast she loves me and it's visible somtimes very much. But I was angry on her too when they sended me too boarding and she didn't stopped from getting me out of such an cruel thing.

Dad, I and mom with grandpa enjoyed our dinner. It was a treat I guess as the table was full of foods. Before I could ask she told me this all is for my first day in office. But my dad looked at me and my big smile converted into a small one.

After dinner I went to my room and switched on the TV. I was using phone after setting A/C temperature and getting into the bed with duvet.

I was watching TV with interest and were surfing phone with less one. But I got attentive when I saw my sisters post with Alice and Grandma.

They went for a long haunting drive after college with grandma and then best dinner. In the restuarant in which I took them yes they went again means they liked it a lot.

Seeing her made me smile and I was staring her for good couple of minutes. Then I went to sleep after watching little bit movies.

ALICE POV:

I lived my whole day in explaining things to other's and making them correct. But honestly my team was spirited, passioned and smart worker's.

First I was really disappointed by their designs but when I showed some designs of mine. And asked them to do something new, unique, ethnic they all did great work.

I was impressed with many and I know I was loud and strict to them with rude or you can say harsh tone. But I can't do amything it comes naturally to me. Very naturally my tone gets harsh or rude when someone do something wrong in work.

Fashion designing is my passion, love, happiness and I worship my work with all my heart. I can't tolerate anything going wrong.

Sometimes I get angry on myself too when I do mistakes. I know many people in my team thinks me an devil and is cursing me under their breath.

Honestly I don't care what other's says I do what I want and I am mad for my things or people.

After making designs and selecting designs I ordered my team to make some samples soon. I directed them that in 1 month we will be launching our dresses and it need to be a great one.

Everyone should be in love with our work and we have to do it at any cost. It's the start of our business and we can't let down ourselves at any cost.

We have to set an example and margin in market. CAS should be in top whereas I and my team should be the proudest.

They nodded their head with a loud Yes to me and went busy in their work. I was hell tired but as I love my work it didn't felt so much while working on.

In lunch time, I was hell hungry and thought to have food without losing a sec. When I was about to eat my eyes fall on Ethan who was going to have food too.

I wanted to go to him and have lunch together just because we are not that bad in terms. But my secretary came with something and my mind got distracted.

While talking with her I ate my food and left with her to see the work. After seeing and checking my team I left for important class which was needed to be attend.

I thought of telling him bye but he was in a phone call so I didn't disturbed him. When I reached class I saw Lauren was all bored and seeing me made her smile.

I was about to tell her about my day but ma'am came and we got attentive. Classes were almost over and we were waiting for the bell to be ring.

A phone popped up with a text and bell rang too at the same time. I and Lauren came out from close and opened the text.

Hi darling's!! Today I thought to come and meet you after college. Hurry up!!! Come fast. I am waiting for you two outside. Don't make me more bored.

Bye?

Love Grandma.

"What is she doing here?", I asked in amused tone.

"Idk. I was with you. But if she is here it means only fun has make her come here" she said excitedly and rolled my eyes on my people's thought.

"Great then", I said looking straight.

We both stepped out and see grandma is leaning over my car. And is staring me through sunglasses and big hat she is wearing with kaftan dress.

"Isn't she looking hot Alice."

"Yeah she is but what is she doing here."

"Hi beautiful what are you doing here", Lauren asked teasingly and both were smiling sheepishly.

"Guys behave and get into the car. Well grandma what are you doing here? (Finally I asked what I wanted) Is anything urgent", I asked in concern.

"Yes dear it is", she said still making plans with Lauren.

"What?"

"Let's go on a long drive and celebrate our night in the joy of your office's first day. What say Lauren?"

"Superb!!! Grandma this is what we needed. Please Alice take us to deathly long drive and for dinner please"

"Fine, I will but I need to go home first. A warm shower is much needed to me right now after such a busy day."

"Yeah sure let's go then", Lauren said while grandma agreed.

So they agreed to let me he fresh at first. Otherwise I thought today I have to go like this. When my body is being restless calling my bed for sleep.

Why they want to go out for my deathly ride when they are hell scared of it? Gosh these two crazies are totally crazy people (more than me?).

We reached grandma's home and my stuffs were already shifted as per my orders. I went to my room whereas Lauren went to her room to get quickly fresh.

Lauren was with grandma in living room and were chit chatting with her. Grandma seemed so happy and it's great to see her like this. I came down after an hour and catched up with my hotties and beautiful ladies.

I was wearing orange off-shoulder top with ripped white skinny jeans and white sandals. I left my hair open as my balayage hair should be seen.

The ladies screamed in excitement and followed me out to my car. Lauren asked me to take last night's restuarant where Ethan took us. She wants to have dinner in the backyard so she already booked the table and asked for areangements.

I wanted to drive slow first time as it was my grandma and I didn't want her to get harm. But she yelled and said "Don't dare to do tge speed less. Run your like you always do."

I nodded my head. Lauren played music and we were all dancing, singing the songs which were being played and flew in our car. Grandma was enjoying the ride and it was good to see her like that.

When we reached the restaurant, manager came qnd showed our table to us. It was amazingly decorated with coloured bottles, goldish white chilli lights, china lamp's and perfect dinner cuisine.

We had a blast on this first day office party. More than us Grandma was enjoying she asked the manager to play music. When the music got on she swayyed her hips holding mine and Lauren's hand.

Lauren was making videos, photos, live event, social kedia postings as she always do. Even my social media is handled by her and she posts less in my account which is good thing.

The dinner was amazing with lovely, delicious and tasty food which was mouthwatering and aromatic. Me and Lauren ate more than what we have generally as the smell and taste was good.

While returning from the party we ordered icecream and had it on our way to home. I was exhausted and after reaching home I Istraight when to my pretty bed.

Hitting the pillow made me sleep and Lauren slept with grandma as she didn't wanted to make her feel alone. From childhood we were very close to my grandma and spend much more time with her than anyone else.
