FALLING SLOWLY

5

Mira walked over to the coffee machine when Andrew showed up beside her.

"I'm sorry for the way I hugged you. It was sudden. You must have been shocked"he said shyly.

Mira smiled"It's okay. Teammates can do that much for one another, right?"

"You're right. Anyways, I and some others would be throwing you a welcome party since you didn't get one before. Make sure to show up, okay?"

Mira nodded her head with a smile."Okay"

Valentina walked in on them as Andrew turned and left.

Valentina grabbed a cup as she fixed some coffee for herself.

"Why did you come back suddenly though? Did boss come to meet you that day?" Valentina asked

Mira furrowed her brows in confusion "What day?"

"The day it rained. He ran out so I thought he was going to apologize to you. Didn't he?"

Mira shook her head."No, he didn't"

"Anyways, I'm glad you are back. I would like us to be close being the only two girls on the team"

Mira laughed. "Me too". As they left the coffee machine and headed back to their desk Mira couldn't help but wonder if Kyle had seen her that day with her sister.

She stopped in her tracks as she reached her desk.

"Is something the matter?" Valentina asked.

"I have to meet the boss. I'm coming"Mira replied before rushing towards his office. She knocked softly on his door.

"Come in" Kyle ordered as Mira turned on the knob and walked in.

"Is something the matter?" He asked.

"Actually.." she dragged unsure of how to ask her question. "I heard you came looking for me the day it rained. Did you see me?"

Kyle looked away from her. "No. I came to the conclusion that I had better things to do that worry about an officer worker. Is that all?"

"Huh?Yes"

"Then please close the door behind you"

Mira closed his door as she left. She sighed in relief. He hadn't seen her with Mirabel.

She didn't know why she was relieved though. Maybe it was because him confusing her for her sister finally made him pay attention to her.

She sat down on her desk as she turned over to Valentina. "Is there something I can do"

"Yes. Actually, check this out" Valentina said showing her a file. "I think that.."Mira listened to Valentina carefully and infixed her points where needed.

Time went by fast and soon it was 7pm.

"Let's go People"Valentina called out with a clap on her hands.

"To where?"Mira asked

"Your welcome party, silly". Valentina replied with a smile as she held her hand.

"Should we invite boss?" Dwayne asked looking towards Kyle's office.

"You know he doesn't really come to all this gatherings plus we know he would say no"Andrew interjected "So let's go".

They turned around to leave when they encountered people from the fashion team

Each team in the company were at war with eachother although they all worked hard for the benefit of the company's growth.
