Girls - The 1975

A week later . . . 

Anthony

I looked out of the window of my office. It was a sunny and warm day and almost everybody at the office spent their free hour outside.

Even Rose and Nathan!

Nathan had appeared in Rose's office with a bunch of white roses and he had taken her out for lunch then. I'm so jealous of them. 

Nathan is such a nice lad and I'm not saying this because he's my best friend.

" Are you going to go out ? " Jasmine the designer next to my office, asked me .

" Nah. . . I have to finish the layout for the magazine for next month. Otherwise Miranda is going to kill me. You know her. " I sighed.

" Yeah. She can sometimes be very bitchy when we aren't punctual in handing her our stuff we've worked. Shall I bring you something to eat ? "

" Nah but thank you. I have some salami sandwiches and some carrots with me. " I chuckled.

Jasmine nodded comprehensively and went.

Now there's only me, a lot of photos and my computer.

I was looking at the photos when someone knocked on my door again.

Some seconds later it was opened by Rose.

" Hey ! " she waved at me smiling.

" Hey! What's up? "

" I don't want to work any more. "  she moaned.

" You can stop in 3 ½ hours, sweetie. "

" What are you doing ? "

" Sorting out photos for the magazine. "

" Oh " she nodded coming to my desk.

" How was lunch? I saw that Nathan was here. "

" Oh! Uhm. . . Yes, right. " she stuttered shaking her head. I could read it on her eyes that she was with their thoughts somewhere else.

" He brought some flowers, didn't he? What a nice gesture! "

" Uhm . . . yes. "

" White roses "

" How creative "

" What ? "

" What ? Huh ? "

" I didn't understand the last part you've said. "

" Nothing important. " she smiled.

Suddenly my phone rang and Rose nodded telling me to accept the call.

'  Hey, Anthony! I have to tell you that all the designers, photographers and journalists have to go to the big conference room. All your bosses will be there. '  Miss Steel the secretary of my department informed me.

" Come with me Rose. We have a conference now. " I told her.

" About what ? " she asked me following me out of the room.
