Beauty With Extra Brains

A Black cat crossed my path!

Well, I got early in the morning as usual.
Meditated.
I remember how my coach used to make me meditate for half an hour in my racing days.
"It helps you to keep calm during race" he used to say.
It really helps you to maintain inner peace. It's been years after that incident. I gave up the gym sessions but this habit just remained with me. I remember how I used to insist on meditating at start.
"But it's just waste of time, I can't even concentrate that much" I used to complain.
He was right. He always was!

After meditation, I headed to the bathroom to shower. I let the warm water run down my naked body thinking about old days & of course about HIM!

While rubbing my body with scrubber, I saw the scars. Those were the scars I got from stitches. They ran down from my side stomach to waist.
'Such a big scar! Big enough to remind me of the dream I gave up.'

I chose white office shirt and rolled the sleeves till my elbows. I wore a black jeans below it and obviously tucked it in my jeans well. I chose my usual faint makeup and pulled my almost there waist length wavy brunette hair into a pony tail. I applied eyeliner and mascara which defined my big hazel brown eyes. At last I paired my outfit with sand brown shoes, yes shoes! You must be judging my taste by now but let me tell you I don't like a big show off at office. If you saw me at office first then at a party you'd totally disagree that I am the same girl you met at office.
I came downstairs and made myself a sandwich and orange juice for breakfast. I finished the breakfast and left the home with my handbag and other stuff that I usually don't use but keep it handy in my car.
While on my way to office I bought myself a cinnamon roll frappuccino from starbucks nearest to office. I tried really very hard to avoid advertising hoardings featuring him. But I just can't!

I saw the big bold letters Richardson Co. Ltd with a dim focus on each one them. I entered the big gate and after showing my ID I got into the parking. I had to carry a lot of things today as I had already wasted my week crying over HIM!
I entered the reception area with a lot of things in my hands. 'Gosh! I wish just for this time I was a octopus!' I was walking while carefully at all those things in my hands. As I was walking, I bumped into hard wall. And then I heard a loud shuffle. Before my brain could even process it, I realised that all of my files were lying on the floor. I collected them neatly. I wanted to bark at the man who was in my way. I stood up trying to arrange the files neatly in my hands. I saw a very handsome man standing in front of me with a poker face. He was wearing black three piece suit with white shirt.
But before I could open my mouth to say something he said smirking.

"Are you blind? Can't you see!" he said furrowing his eyebrows at me.

"Well, can't YOU see mister that I was busy hurrying up with all those files in my hand unlike someone who was just busy with their cellphone. Now tell me who's blind then?" I said angrily pointing at his cellphone.

"Who do you think I am?"

"Just a black cat who crossed my path before I could even start my work." I replied looking at his attire and shoved past him.

As I said we were working on one of the company's important project, me and my team had entire 33rd floor for this project. As I exited the elevator on 33rd floor. I saw a sight much to my dismay. My team was busy chatting and cracking jokes. I mean they could chat for a while but I was already late and if they are still talking with each other that means they haven't started work till now. Some of them were just busy swinging on their round chairs. I too do that when I'm alone in my cabin. But that's different.

My team includes the smartest employees but they are all lazy bums! I mean yes, I am lazy too. But that's different!

I went to the table where they all were chatting.
