to end up being Royally Trapped.

❛ Why are you acting this way? ❜
❛ I feel infuriated.❜
❛ And why is that so? ❜
❛ Because I can't figure out if I should scream at you or have you screaming for me.❜

"I think you should wear a shirt."
This is not the comment I have ever intended to hear from my employee, one who strictly should have stuck to my office and not felt free to play around the murky water of our shared neighbourhood.
"It's my house." The retort leaves a bad taste in my mouth as I realise how silly it is. My assistant stands at the door of my house, dressed in a shimmering top that is enough to blind a person and plain black jeans.
"My eyes don't agree with your public display of nudity." She pushes me back and saunters in my house acting like a regular in a coffee shop. As she walks inside, I glance at the bling pair of heels that add to her already good height. By the looks of it, she is on her way out, and I am certainly not sure how her maps misguided her to my home.
"My eyes don't agree with your idea of shimmer until you wrinkle, but you don't see me complaining," I scoff at her. She takes a seat on my sofa, the very one I had just typed and then erased her termination letter.
Before this, Noor and I have always maintained a professional decorum despite not being each other's number one fan but today seems to be breaking a lot more boundaries than I ever thought of.
"You can sit, sir. Please treat it like your own home."
"Ha. Ha. Ha. Very funny. Why are you here, Noor?"
"I am going to a club."
"I don't remember asking for your daily itinerary."
"Can you not be sarcastic for a moment?"
I attempt to reply when she stops me and stands up, ambling towards me. Her demeanour goes icy and I can feel the ambience changing.
"So, there's a reason why I am here."
"Trust me, I figured."
"Sir!"
"Noor."
"As you remember my parents summoned me today. They asked some very interesting questions and threw in some very riveting choices and I made some very compelling choices."
"I appreciate the Duolingo classes, but you just said interesting with its two other synonyms and all in just one sentence."
