"The Unsolicited"

Chapter: 11

I settled myself again!

"If you accept the offer then you need to be available here, as a full-time employee!" he told...

"You have two days to think!" He added!

"Two days! Fine Sir!"
I sipped my coffee!

He smiled!

*What? Is he done?*
*But I just took a first sip of my coffee!*
*Don't tell me I have to leave without finishing it!*

"I have a question, sir!" I said sipping my coffee...

"Yes!" he said...

"What if I give you my answer today? Will I be required to come here starting from tomorrow ?" I sipped it again!

"Yes, You can! But you can use these two days as your holidays!" He said smiling.

"Okay, sir, thanks!" I finally finished it!

"So, May I leave now?" I asked politely...

"Oh, sure!"

As soon as I came outside the building, I gave my parents a call and informed them about everything!
They were so happy that my father started dancing as informed by my mother!

I told them that I'd be late as I was going to my only favorite cafe, "Jingle Bells" to spend some quality time but this time with Books!

"I'm home!" I said while taking off my heels.

Nobody came out!

"That's weird!"

"Mom? Dad?" I called them!

Olly came running to me!

"Hey, pie!" I said while pretending to chew her ear.

I came to the drawing room and saw my parents sitting on the couch, reading something on my father's phone!

"What's with them?" I got nervous!

"Mom! Dad!" I said approaching them...

They quickly hid the screen!

"Oh, you're home!" my mother said smiling.

"Is everything okay?" I asked while sitting next to my mother.

"Yes fine!" My father said chuckling.

Something was off!

"Have you eaten anything?" my mother asked.

"Not dinner!" I replied smiling.

I returned home at 8 P.M. after spending my whole day reading at Jingle Bells.

"Get fresh! And let's have dinner together, we were waiting for you to come!"

My mother said and left the room.

"Hand me your phone!" my father said while passing his hand to me.

"My phone's dead, I need your phone to make some important calls!" he said while smiling.

"O-k-a-y," I said in confusion.

My parents were behaving strangely, I did nothing but wait for them to tell me the matter!

I and Olly came upstairs, into my room.
I fell on my bed throwing my bag on my desk!

Olly sat on my belly, I started patting her thinking about my parents!

*What happened? Why did Dad take my phone?*
*Dear God, please don't make my parents worry about anything! They looked sad!*

I went to my bathroom to take a shower!
And kept thinking about the things that could make them worry.

We were having our dinner in an awkward silence!

"Is there something bothering you both?" I asked while eating...

"No, Not at all!" said father.

"We are okay, you eat properly!"
mother said smiling.

"You both know that even if you tell me I won't skip my meal!", I said in a serious tone as I figured out that the matter was related to me.

"There's nothing to tell you, my girl!" Mother said smiling.

"You both cannot trick me!" I said with teary eyes.

"Hey, we will talk, okay?
But after we finish our dinner!"
Father said passing the dessert to me!

We all were sitting in my room to finally discuss the matter!

"First of all, tell us who all knows about Ian taking you to his Vanity?" asked Father.

"What's the matter?" I gulped!

"Answer us!" mother said...

They were not asking questions in an angry tone but their faces were pale.

"Some people from the Decoration team!" I replied stammering...

"Do you trust them?" Mother asked!

"In what way?" I frowned in sadness!

My father stood up from the bed, "Okay, your mom will tell you about it!"
he said while patting my shoulder and left the room.

"What's going on Mom, tell me, please !" I pleaded as I understood that the matter was related to Ian.

She came close to me, and held my hand, "Someone posted something very disgusting about you!" she burst out in tears.

My heart filled with terror, "What?"

"Someone anonymously posted that Ian took you to his vanity and you both did something, which made Ian post the article in favor of you" " she added.

She used the word, "Did Something" but I was quite sure that it wasn't the same on the post!"

"Let me see it!" I said with a pale face...

My heart was beating so fast, The room felt so suffocating that I had to force breathing!
Many things were running into my mind at the same time!

"Amish!" My mother hugged me!

"We know you didn't do anything like that. We trust you!"
I started crying in her arms...

"I need to see it, Mom!"

"You don't worry, we will report this!" she handed me my phone.

I opened the post and started reading it in my mind,
"What a funny way to bribe someone! And look how Mr. Billionaire Ian Evans fell on the laps of a common girl who doesn't even know how to control her anxiousness! But who cares! At least she knows how to convince a man, LOL.
He took her to his vanity and had some quality time screaming in pleasure while we were worried about those damn lights! What a way to fool everyone! And why won't Ian write in favor of her? Use your brains, people! Think why he praised Amish Hazel only!"

Each word felt like a bullet that went straight into my heart!
My happiness and my dreams were all gone at that time.

"Who could do this?" I kept repeating these words.

My mother told me that my friends also knew about this!

"Your friends will visit you tomorrow!"
"Carol and Cindy said they'll stay with you for some days!"

"No, please don't!" I pleaded...

"I'm not in a state to meet someone right now!" I said sobbing!

"They too trust you, Amish!"

"I know, Mom but still...
Give me some time please!" I said and pulled my blanket over my head.

My mother left the room crying as she knew that I would cry all night!

Inside the blanket, I was shivering in fear, "There's no way out of this, I'm dead now!"
