Mackenzie's POV
RINSING the washed plates with clean water, I gave them to Jay and he dried them with the napkin.
He put them on the shelf and I went to the fridge to grab the bowl of ice-cream and two sundae glasses. I scooped two spoons of the ice-cream each into the glasses and gave Jay his share"You wouldn't believe what happened to me today?" I said before taking a spoonful of ice-cream into my watering mouth
"Ouu tell me" he said with eagerness and jumped to my side immediately
"You look excited even before listening to what I have to say" We moved to sit on the floor in the hall
"It's just that you bring lots of interesting information these past few days and I don't seem to get enough" He gave a hard lick on the spoon and winked at me
My left eye twitched severely at his habit. Jay always has a weird way of eating and it get cringy most times, but I'll let it slide for now because I need to get this off my chest
"You find my misfortune interesting?"
"You can't call it a misfortune if it includes a certain hot looking guy" he fired
"You haven't seen him"
"But you calling someone handsome means he's hot and sexy"
"Oh my God! Will you listen"
"Okay you can talk now" He gave up simply because he wanted to hear what I had to say
"So it's about this fine looking guy..." he opened his mouth to talk again "...shut up! And don't speak again till I'm done" I warned and continued my story, telling him all what happened today
"So you're saying your sexy guy you met and ruined his evening last weekend is now the potential investor of the hospital and you're scared he might disapprove of the investment plan because you both had a misunderstanding?" Jay questioned after I was done talking
"Yes, that's exactly what I said and no, he isn't my sexy guy so stop with the possessive speech"
I balanced my glass in my hand. The ice cream had finished even before I started talking but neither of us wanted to go back to the kitchen yet
"You don't look good with the uptight clothes on girl, live a little. And are you even listening to yourself? It's going to take a lot for a business tycoon as you described him, to redraw or disagree on an investment plan and not just because he has a personal issue with an intern of that organization"
"You don't know that and I wish I could think the same way you do about this. So before I could say had I known, I have to find him and apologize for what he is responsible for. If only he can stop being an asshole for a moment" I finished
Not getting any response from Jay, I turned to see him looking surprisingly at me
"What? Don't I get the chance to call him names for making me lose my job? I don't know what else he might do after he saw me today" I said in defense
"I don't think it's that bad and besides your internship will be over in a few weeks so whether he invest or not shouldn't be a problem to you, it's his own loss" he shrugged nonchalantly
"I won't be able to live with it if that happens. You know it has always been my dream to work there and I got the privilege to be there as an intern. If they know I'm the reason for the investment failure, I won't have a good academic credit not to talk about getting a job in the future" I pouted and gave him a puppy eyes
"Oh please stop being dramatic and with that face you look like you smell something bad"
I pushed him to the floor and jumped on him. We struggled on the floor until he got on me "Get off me dummy, you're heavy" I screamed in his face. He did and after we took deep breaths he went to the kitchen with our glasses
