Thea"s POV:

          “ Hurry up Thea! Mrs. Smith told us that the boss will arrive today. “ My friend Kendra shouted at me when she noticed that I'm just sitting on my chair, doing nothing. I barely set my eyes of her and nodded tardily as if I was just hanging around.
     
    I can’t blame anyone for being so sleepy at work, it was already five in the morning when I fell asleep because of my stupid dream. I dreamt about a man who looks exactly like a protagonist in a fantasy story. Though I can’t clearly define his features, but all I know is that, he can definitely drag women’s interest.

          He has this dimmed eyes with a deep meaning inside. It seems that there are nameless emotions in it that may broke his stance any minute. That dream! That dream always shows up trice a week. What does it mean? And who the hell was that man?

          “ Are you done day-dreaming? Do you want to get fired? “ I moved my sight to her when she sarcastically asked me a question. Kendra was always been a hot tempered woman, maybe that’s the reason why she’s still single till now. Oppsss! We’re actually the same.

          “ I’ll be at your back. “ I answered. She turned her back at me and walked slowly while stamping her foot. This amazon girl is really aggressive. Well, she cares for me and I appreciate it.

          After my parents died because of an accident ten years ago, she became my family in an instance. I was twelve years old when I was left alone. No relatives, no friends. I remember that I was so hopeless and thought that I will die together with my parents, but unexpectedly, a fifteen years old girl named Kendra showed up and grabbed me to save my life.

         But,------my parents didn’t survive, including my older brother who was always been by my side whenever I needed comfort.

          Subsequently, she brought me to an orphanage and we grew up together. My parents are known for being great in business, but there was no news about their death. Not even me, as their missing daughter. That’s why I stayed quite and started to stand up on my own foot.

Nevertheless, that was all from the past, so maybe there’s no one who can recognize me now. After all, I grew up as a fine lady and an independent one.

         “ Crap! “ I cursed and ran as fast as I can when I noticed that I'm the only person who was left in this floor. Maybe they're all at the entrance, welcoming our new boss. I quickly stepped my foot in the elevator and pressed the first floor.

          I'm at the forty-fifth floor and my destination is the first. Holly molly! Maybe because I was out of my mind these past few weeks, that I even neglected my work as a part of the department of finance.

          I’m wearing a black skirt that’s two inches above the knee, paired by a white fitted shirt with a black coat. This isn’t the proper uniform here, but mine was soaked wet last night when the rain poured from the sky.
        
I’m now twenty-two years old and still a graduating student from the Stallion University. A school that has good reputation and reviews. It’s an expensive school but I was able to study there because I have my scholarship. Maybe that was the reason why they hired me even if I’m not yet a college graduate.

          I lifted my head to see who’s the person in front of me when the elevator stopped in the twenty-fourth floor. Seems that I’m not the only one who is late and will be fired? Thank God I have a companion if ever Mrs. Smith will blow fire on me.

          “ Hello? “ I greeted but more like a question. LOL! I was aiming to take a glance at him but ended up fixing my gaze to him. I was so shocked when I realized how good-looking this person is. The person whom I just saw at this very moment. Could it be, fate?
