Rose was pacing outside the Principal's office, worry clearly visible all over her face.
Rain sighed for the hundredth time now. She tried to calm down her anxiety but Rose wasn't listening. No matter how comforting words Rain spoke, her anxiety wasn't lessening. She was worried and that worry gave her anxiety.
" Miss. Menezes....are you ready?" Principal Jason's voice caught her attention.
She looked at him and shook her head in a no.
She didn't want to mess up everything at the last minute.
" Mr.Jason I cannot do this.... please let Rain take over it!" She said truthfully. She wanted to convince him.
Jason widened his eyes, anger leapt in his veins.
Chase specifically ordered him. And now, if she doesn't welcome him, he won't mind creating havoc here.
" What nonsense!! You're telling me this... at the last minute?!? Miss. Menezes, I didn't expect such behaviour from you!" he remarked, angrily.
Rose looked at Rain, worried.
"Mr. Jason....i..uh...we still have time..." Rose tried to convince, but Jason didn't pay any heed to her.
" You are welcoming him...on and off stage! That is settled... now follow me!" Jason spat angrily and started walking towards the main building.
Rose looked at Rain, she immediately hugged her.
" We can talk to the guest....he may help us!" Rain patted her shoulder, and she nodded.
" Fine... we'll meet in the auditorium!" Rose sighed, giving her a tight smile..she jogged behind Jason.
Rose was sitting on the couch, along with Jason and his secretary. They were waiting for Chase Griffin. She looked at the interiors for god knows how many times. She couldn't control her anxiety.
What if they click pictures...! She was worried about this possibility. It wasn't just worry, it was scaring her to the core.
" Yes...okay...!" Jason's secretary nodded.
" Mr. Jason...he is here!" he informed Jason.
He picked up the bouquet of Iris and passed it to Rose.
" Let's go!" He said, walking towards the door.
Rose inhaled sharply and followed him.
She looked at the flower bouquet she was holding. It was a mixture of Purple Iris, Yellow Roses and White Lilies. She pulled the flowers closer to her face and inhaled the fragrance. They smelled so good, so fresh.
Somehow these flowers calmed her anxiety.
Her calmness broke when she heard the clicking sound from the camera. She literally flinched at the clicking sound.
She was too late to realise that the guest had already arrived and was standing in front of her with a small smile playing on his lips.
Chase walked inside the main building along with Denise. As soon as he stepped inside the hall, his eyes wandered around looking for that beautiful girl. And there she was...!
