Bound By Hatred

chapter 2

She entered the meeting room shortly after he did the room was occupied by mostly old men and middle aged men she was surprised to find he was the youngest amongst them and he was the boss.

The meeting was going smoothly,it was just basically them talking about business and Zara'u was getting bored.
After a while she decided to serve them tea as she was told by her friend earlier; that during meetings tea or any sort beverage should be served. She got up, made some coffee using the coffee machine and she proceeds to serve, but as she did she accidentally spilled all the coffee on Usman he quickly got up due to heat and so did everyone else, she quickly went and grab some paper towels she was about to clean the stain when moved back
   "Are you out of your goddamn mind!"

He said with a deadly stare towards her

"I'm so sorry, I swear it's not intentional"

She said with her head bowed, he just walked pass her and straight to his office he summoned Abdul Malik immediately

"Who hired her" he asked
 
"Who, the new assistant, it was you" he said as he sat down

"Me?"he asked as he was not sure of that

"Yeah, remember you didn't have time for the interview so you assigned  Khalil to do it" Abdul Malik explained

"Did I?" He asked again

"Yea you did" Abdul Malik said again
He just stared at him in disbelief
  Abdul Malik sighed
" You asked Khalil to do interview and to send you the qualified ones so you get to approve them
  "Ohh yea,but I don't remember her tho" he said as he shrugged his shoulders.
" Well she wouldn't be here if you didn't."
"But why you asking?" He asked out of curiosity

"Ughh, she's just can't do anything right" he said a bit annoyed

A knock was heard on the door
"Come in" Abdul Malik responded
The door slowly came to an open she revealed her self. She came to apologize because she felt bad,on the first day of work she has already messed up so many times, she came inside and moved to the table leaving a reasonable amount of space in between her and the table she bowed her head a little
  "I wanted to apologize for earlier,it was completely on me and I wasn't focused and I tripped and spilled it but I promise you it won't happen again, I'm so sorry sir" she said all in one breath and still haven't raised her head up. 

"Get out." Usman said in a cold tongue, she didn't move from where she was standing
" So you are not just stupid you are also deaf."  He said harshly.She wanted to move but it was like her foot was stuck to the ground, he got up and went outside the office to God knows where and Abdul Malik came close to her but not too close
  " It's okay, don't think too much about it,okay" he gave her a reassurance smile and she felt a little better,so she smiled back.
"Okay let's go"she just followed him and they went outside the office, she sat down back at her desk.

Abdul Malik went to the rooftop where he knows that Usman will be there.

Abdul Malik and Usman were really close to each other since when Usmans' company went into bankruptcy Abdul Malik was the only one who stayed with him and ever since that incident there became very close
  "Don't you think you went a little bit too far?"Abdul Malik asked
   "No." Usman said firmly
  "She was stupid and clumsy and she wants to emotionally blackmail me" Abdul Malik looked at him with disbelief

"You know sometimes I can't help to think something is definitely wrong with you"
   "How is that?"
"I mean she was wrong,and she came to apologize and you think she is blackmailing you, be so for real right now " he said as he laughed a little

  "You know nothing about this things just  do what you do yeah, you will not understand" he said as he walked pass him. Abdul Malik caught up with him
  "And you do koh" he said with a smirk with a  raised  brow
   "Whatever"
