"So I need you to prepare the conference room we're about to have a session there. I need you to place each and every important document there next to everybody's seat plus put some refreshments too and I will not tolerate tardiness Miss Ahmed. You may leave time is less and work is a lot."
She turned and took a step when Sohail stopped her,"EVERYTHING HAS TO BE PERFECT.....NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS."He told her again emphasizing on every word it was like his habit to do so especially when Anum was around. "Why like why does he always dismisses me as if I'm a dog or anything for that matter and and this...this pathetic way of his of emphasizing on every word....its like I don't get what he says. HE needs to stop doing this cause its getting intolerable every single day. I so want to quit but can not because of the "money"issue."She thought to herself. Sohail's voice brought her out of her reverie,"stop day dreaming Anum and get back to work." He spoke harshly.
She left his room and started setting the conference room while she was doing so she murmured many things about Sohail some of them were like,"What does he think of himself? He can't treat me like this I'm his secretary and on top of that I'm a human being and no one should be treated this way."She was continuously rambling on and on when something hit her like a bucket of ice cold water,"HOLD on a second...wait wait wait...he called me by my first name.....he freaking called me by my first name and it sounded so good coming from him."she thought and smiled.
"Girrrllll what ya thinking?? huh??? sounded good??....shutup you really need to shut up!!...do you get that..look at the way he always treats you and no don't get mesmerized by the way your name rolls out of his tongue. Don't ever!!!"her sub conscious reminded her and she nodded in agreement.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She heard a soft come in,"Uh- finally once in a life time he's not being harsh finnaallllyyyyyy"she thought and entered."UM- sir everything's settled its time for you to attend the meeting...it starts in two minutes."
"Okay lets go!", with that he left his office with Anum trying to keep up with him,"Why on earth is he so fast can't his pace be slow or medium for once YA Allah!!" she silently prayed.
Soon everyone was in the conference room Adnan and Anum did a bro kind off hand shake and started talking when they met each other while Sohail stood there watching them with all others. The only difference was that the others were watching with amusement whereas Sohail was watching with anger mixed with frustration. "Okay if every body is done with their childish behaviors then I think its time to start the meeting",Sohail said while trying to maintain his calm. Seems like Adnan was not in the mood for a meeting anytime soon so he spoke,"chill man!! whats the rush?" Adnan was loving the view before him so decided to tease him more,"dude I was thinking if we could order something..... something like real food I don't want these refreshments, cause I'm famished and you told me well more like ordered me to come to the meeting as soon as I landed at the airport. So first eating! Then meeting!" Adnan said sheepishly.
"THE HELL I'LL LET YOU EAT FIRST.....WE NEED TO HAVE SOME WORK DONE HERE AND ALL YOU PEOPLE ARE THINKING OF WAYS FOR ENJOYMENT. THIS IS NO PLACE FOR ALL YOUR CRAP...GET THAT STRAIGHT IN YOUR HEADS."Sohail shouted at the top of his lungs he was fuming. Adnan went silent and Anum well Anum shrieked when he started to shout so loud. Adnan raised his hands with defeat and said,"Its my bad...sorry you all and Sohail too...lets get to work." Sohail didn't respond and just cleared his throat. "what just happened to you Sohail?? Why did you shout? Is it because of the way Anum was talking to Adnan? Get a grip!"his sub conscious said.
Then he signalled for Mr.Hamid his lawyer to start the meeting as he had to fill in Sohail and all the other party members regarding the case in ECP. The thing was that the JIT (Joint Investigation Team) which was made to investigate the case regarding Panama Papers in which the current Prime Minister's name was added ( Prime Minister's name is Karamdar Olu ). Prime Minister Karamdar Olu has been asked by the JIT to present himself for further investigation hence he'll be meeting with the JIT regarding this issue tomorrow. So Sohail thought to have this meeeting with his party memebers regarding both cases issue his and of Karamdar's.
During the whole meeting Anum was busy taking notes while the rest were discussing about different affairs, she zoned out and started to look everywhere but her notepad and pen but then came back to earth when she saw Sohail's death glare from afar and resumed on taking notes.
............
The meeting ended and everyone left. "In my office now", Sohail said through gritted teeth and walked fast out the conference room not even waiting for Anum to say something in response. Once again he was walking way more fast for Anum to catch up with him. When they entered the office he turned around and caged her between him and the door, holding her hands above her head and spoke, "What was that?"
"What was what", Anum spoke with same venom and anger as of Sohail's dripping out of her tongue.
