Valentina

I walked into my office and put my purse on my desk. When I saw Mika fall asleep on the plane, I was relieved because the tension between us was thick. And when the plane landed, I made a beeline for my limo and left and went home. I couldn't stop thinking about the kiss. Why did she kiss me? But also I kissed her back and pulled her into me so I couldn't really blame her for it because I kissed her back.

The whole weekend my mind run with thoughts. I also emptied five bottles of red wine between Friday and Sunday. It was definitely not a great choice since I have a fucking hangover.

My attention went to the door as it opened and in walked Sienna. I see her frown. I looked at the clock seeing it's 06:00. "What are you doing here so early?" I asked. She's supposed to be here only by 07:30.

She looked at me and shook her head.

"I can ask the same you're very early." She stated as she took a seat on the couch opposite of me. I sighed and run my hand through my hair.

She looked at me and seemed in thought.

"You don't seem yourself what's wrong?" She asked looking like she's holding back a smirk.

"Nothing is wrong, I'm fine." I waved her off.

"Valentina Carla Vitale you tell me now what's wrong or I'll drown you in a pool of your least favourite red wine." She said sternly. I sighed knowing she would really do that.

"Mika and I kissed." I mumble.

"What I didn't hear you?" I groaned frustrated.

"I said Mika kissed me!" I glared at her and she looked at me with a smirk.

"Is that so, so what's so bad about it." She said making my headache worse.

"She's my fucking assistant Sienna, plus I just got out of a five year relationship." She gave me a sarcastic smile.

"Yeah I don't know about you but you're not taking this breakup like you should, you don't look depressed, you're not in your bed crying your eyes out, so it tells me you're just using that as an excuse." She said which she was actually right. I don't take this breakup like I should. I bit my lip and stared at my coffee table not knowing what to say or do.

I heard her sigh. Knowing what's coming next.

"Just don't ignore her like-"

"What!" I snapped.

"Of course I'm going to ignore her, I'm going to take time and think about this whole situation." She glared at me.

"You'll just hurt her feelings by doing that." She said angrily.

"I don't fucking care." I said my voice turning cold.

"Whatever Valentina, I just hope you know what you're doing." I watched as she left and closed the door.

I felt my breathing picking up. I leaned back into the couch and closed my eyes. What the fuck am I supposed to do? I mean it was already awkward on the plane and I can bet you a thousand dollars it's going to be the same here at the office.

———

The whole day I was in my office doing paperwork. Sienna popped in and gave me some lunch because she knows I'll stay in my office the whole day. I haven't seen Mika for the day, she hasn't came to me to sign any paperwork, maybe she's ignoring me like I'm ignoring her.

There was a knock on my door and I yelled for them to come in. The door open and Sienna walked in and closed the door behind her. She walked to my desk and sat on the chair opposite of my desk.

"Why are you here?" I questioned. She rolled her eyes at me.

"Mika looks like shit today, I wonder why." She said sarcastically. I scoffed and rolled my eyes.

"So." She sighed loudly and looked at me seriously.

"It doesn't help by ignoring each other, I caught her two times standing in front of your door, looking hesitant to knock and when I finally hope she would she just turns around and walk away." I groaned.

"I don't care." She glared at me.

"Just promise me you won't be bitchy to her when she finally gets the courage to talk to you." I know I would be a complete bitch to her if she would walk through that door.

"I would try, but I'm not promising anything." She groaned frustratedly.

"You know what do what you want Valentina, you know what's best." She said flatly and left my office slamming the door hard behind her.

Ugh I hate it when she's mad at me.

I packed my bag and went home feeling drained from everything. When I walked out of my office door I saw Mika getting out of hers, she didn't see me when she walked to the elevator. I watched her walk with her head down looking deep in her thoughts. Sometimes I wonder what's going on in her mind.
