Time seemed to crawl for the workers slogging through overtime on the project, but for Zahra, it raced by. Her impending deadline loomed large, adding pressure to her already hectic days. Yet, beneath the surface of her focus and determination, she grappled with an unexpected feeling. Unbeknownst to her, a space in her heart had quietly reserved a place for Victor. She felt a pang of sadness at the thought of parting from him, a realization that added an emotional weight to her already stressful workload.
"So thank you, Ms. Zain and Mr. Voss. Thanks for giving me such great and unique designs, I love it. Hope to work with you guys further as well. So let's end here."
You are welcome Mr. Alex we are really happy that you liked the design of my team and his.
Yes Mr. Alex we will surely work together in future as well.
With that the meeting came to an end. The project was successful.
Well guys you all worked so hard with this project. I am really happy so treat is on me today choose anywhere you guys want to go and reserve the place. Said Zahra
The employees thanked them and Victor and Zahra came to her cabin to take some rest.
Well it was so nice working with you Zahra. You know Zahra watching your work is like watching an artist it's so peaceful to see. I can just see it all day.
Zahra blushed slightly, her cheeks tinged with a delicate pink. She smiled warmly but remained poised, not fully surrendering to his advances.
Well maybe if one day you will be lucky I will paint you a picture as well.
Ms. Zain I really love how you kept me on my toes, it's one of the things which I always find so captivating about you.
And that's how with teasing and laughter they both finished their leisure time. The office soon turned dark as it was the time for sunset indicating that they have to go now.
Victor you wanna join me in the office dinner cause they all will have a conversation on their own. All I have to do is to sit on a table alone quietly. It's boring.
So you admit you like spending time with me.
Zahra was slightly taken aback by Victor's sudden question about her liking but she looked into his eyes with a smile and continued
Yes, I really do enjoy spending time with you, I've been looking forward to this dinner and having you here with me means a lot. It's not just about the company having someone like you around makes these moments feel special.
Victor agreed to go with her and accompany her. They decided to go with Victor's car. It was a Tesla S and soon with little talks and a comfortable journey they reached their destination. Victor and Zahra got a table which was a little far from the employees in order to make them comfortable and have a peaceful and enjoyable dinner.
As the night unfolds, Zahra and Victor share a moment of sincere connection. Victor's earlier flirtatious comment turned into genuine talk They both shared their childhood secrets and some embarrassed moments and slowly Zahra's eyes started reflecting her appreciation for his presence and the meaningful nature of their time together.
The dinner concludes with a quiet moment of contemplation. Victor reaches across the table, taking Zahra's hand in his softly, and expresses his gratitude for the night.
This has been a wonderful night, Zahra. I'm glad we shared it together.
Zahra smiles, her expression a mix of contentment and contemplation.
