FINGERS-CROSSED
Song: Fingers Crossed by Trevor Daniel ft Julia Michaels
ZARA's POV
At Four Seasons Hotel
It wasn't too long till I arrived at the meeting venue, only to notice that I was too early.
Well, yeah that's me, Tardy? Not a word in my dictionary
Always Time conscious
Perhaps, it's because this meeting is really important to me and I really want to secure this deal too.
I took a seat, while I waited for the other members to arrive
A Ding sound emitted as my phone buzzed up with a text from Mum
Zara please don't forget to stop by as you promised, I and your dad haven't quite seen you in a while because you're always too busy. Please drop by when you're done with your meeting
Tipical parents
But it's true, I've been too busy these days that I haven't had time for myself lately
"Am I forgetting something? Just to be sure I should review the documents concerning this meeting" I said to myself while I still awaited the arrival of the other members.
I opened my briefcase
Scanned through gradually, they all seemed in place but I couldn't find the confidential agreement, I could have sworn I put it in, Or did I leave it behind?. Gosh I really needed this to secure this deal, I scanned through severally over and over again to no avail.
I went ahead to pour out the contents of my "Walker brand Leather hand bag", but i still couldn't find it.
"Gosh where did I keep those documents having the Confidential Agreements to this meeting" I said to myself"
"Here you can have a copy of mine" A masculine voice said, startling me
I looked up to see a young man in his mid twenties. He was a tall man of about 6 feet 5, I could tell even while he was sitting, He had hair the color of cinnamon, his pointed nose added a touch of glamour to his light skin, His square chin was the finishing touch indeed. I couldn't tell the colour of his eyes because he wasn't too close, but it seemed to be brownish I guess.
Damn how can someone be this handsome
And know I didn't just say that
"Last time I checked I was the only one in here"
"When did this guy arrive" I thought to myself
Perhaps he might be an angel
"I always keep a couple of copies other than the original" he added
"Don't worry I'm not asking for anything in return" he said
Now this guy seems to be a Chatter box
Besides that's what they all say Nothing in return indeed
I reluctantly took the copy of the document which he had offered me
"I don't accept favours, I'm indebted to you
Count it as a one time favour which I owe you" I said
He kept on staring at me like he had just seen a ghost.
"Will you stop staring at me" I said with an Obviously pissed off tone
"Oh, sorry I lost you for a moment there" he said with a slight smirk
"Okay I'm starting to think there's something up with this guy" I thought to myself.
