Ashton.
"I'm really sorry Leora" I take her hand in mine, mostly in a bid to calm me down.
I mean the mere audacity of those women. Here I was thinking about her not knowing she had been outside for close to an hour.
"Its fine Ashton, I'm not angry anymore" She smiles at me,managing to unknowingly calm me down.
"Do you want anything, coffee, tea,anything really" I release her hand from mine.
Fine. We-more like she though because I had been willing from the jump-had decided to give our relationship a chance, but I did not want to push it.
"Just water please, i'm really thirsty" She replies and I ring for a glass of water, orange juice, and some cookies.
"Your office is really nice" She commented after taking a look at it for a minute.
"Coming from an Architect and interior designer,I am beginning to feel a tad bit proud" I tease and she just laughs.
"Really from the entrance alone,I was blown away,no wonder no one can seem to take your place in the hospitality industry" She remarks and I cannot help but smile.
"So,what brings you to The Carter Group today?You will need to see dad on your way out though. I am sure he will be more than happy to see you"
"Sure. And I came here to tell you that-" before she could say anything else,Cassandra,my PA comes in with her tray.
She drops the tray and "accidentally" spills Leora's juice all over her skirt.
"Shit" Leora curse under her breath.
"You really dont like this job anymore do you" It takes everything in me not to yell at her.
"Sorry sir" She replies not so sincerely,and I feel like pulling my hair out.
"Just get out and get her another drink"
Before she can reply,I raise up my hand to shush her. I really didnt want to here anything.
"I'm so sorry again Leora"
"I'm sure I did not steal her man so I dont know what the issue here is" She tries to lighten the mood and just for her sake,I laugh.
***************
"You were saying?" I ask,after Cassandra brings another drink.
"Yeah. I came to tell you I would have to been on a plane in- "she checks the time on her watch " 4 hours"
"4 hours?" I looked at her shocked.
"W-why?" I mean,the whole court proccedure was done and dusted,I thought I could use this time to get her to fall in love with me,and now she's just leaving?
"Well. Mr. Walker called me earlier and said I had to be in London by tommorow morning to sign a contract renewal with my agency, and also for a brand ambassadorship with YSl, and to be at the Graham Nortons show that evening an event the next day and I am off to Australia that same night"
"Australia?" This kept on getting worse and worse.
"Yeah. Apparently, a movie I had signed up for late last year wants to start shooting and they only delayed this long because of the case,so I have to be in Australia as soon as I can"
"And when are you to be back?" I ask, but I was silently dreading the answer.
"Honestly Ashton I dont know. I never know. But I should be back before Christmas."
That was 7 months away.
How was I going to survive without her for seven whole months.
"And Sy. What are you going to tell him,or are you just going to leave?" I push my own feelings aside.
