Early the next morning when Cindy arrived at work , an art gallery was being held in the conference room in her work place. She had wondered as she drove in why there were multiple expensive and famous cars in the parking lot.
"Are you feeling much better today?" Andria who was the HR asked her.
"Much better Andria, thank you. I can see that we have an art gallery event today."
"Yes, yes, Cindy we have it and there is so much work and pressure, in fact Jake was worried sick from yesterday because he thought you won't be around today. He wanted you to do a follow up on the list of guests and where they would sit according to their ranks, but as per now that is sorted out, if you are okay you could run to his office and find out more please."
"Thank you Andria ..on it."
She headed towards the elevator and pressed number four. The doors closed and as she was almost reaching her destination she thought how long the briefing from Andrea was but grateful. She really wanted to get her things back this time but the day was busy and she had to think of a way. Guests had already flooded the conference room and the event was starting in fifteen minutes time. As Cindy approached Jake's office she remained as calm as possible by deciding to forget their different encounters and the question she had to answer but still had it on the waiting list.
She could hear him talk, he was in a meeting and was speaking in Spanish. Cindy thought things were working out to her advantage, she opened the door as silent as possible, the good thing was that her office was near the door and Jake's office was further inside, so as she opened the door there was not so much noise.
She sat down and started arranging the files that were scattered all over in order as she looked for her diary and credit card. As she opened her drawers and searched endlessly trying as much as possible not to be frustrated and anxious she heard the words...
'Adios," and she knew the meeting was over. She could hear Jake move his chair and then foot steps. She quickly turned her laptop on in the speed of lightning and pretended to be seriously busy.
Good morning sir, " she addressed him immediately he came over.
"Good morning Cindy, feeling much better from Friday?"
"Yes I am ."
"Good, lets get to work then, I have about a hundred people in the conference room and eighty more are yet to arrive in half an hour from now, Andria will sort that out. I'd love if you'd help in displaying the different drawn arts we've been working on."
"Yes I'll do so, "
"I have sent the files in your email, and the projector and laptop you'll be using are already set in the conference room, I'll see you in the conference room in two minutes. " Jake said smiling at her as he turned the door knob to leave.
Cindy did not reciprocate the smile because she did not want to give him the slightest hope but instead answered in a professional tone, "Yes sir, I will see you in a few."
