20 minutes later, they were at Emir's old office. They got out of the running car and the Valet took it to Emir's parking spot. Emir was full on intent to storm up to his office and close the door, but the two were met with applause when they entered the building.

"Congratulations."

"Welcome to the company Mrs. Kozcuoglo."

Zeynep and Emir stood awkward as the employees congratulated them with flowers and handshakes.

"Ok! Alright!" Emir ordered and the celebration died down.

"Yes, we are married. Mrs. Zeynep is my wife, but more than that she is my business partner."

Zeynep crossed her arms and rolled her eyes.

"Now let's not stand here the whole day. Let's get back to work now everyone."

Emir's secretary came up to him and Zeynep followed them up to the second floor. They went to Emir's office and were so busy discussing things that Zeynep felt ignored.

"Uh, hello? You woke me up early to ignore me? What am I supposed to do?"

Emir sighed as he made way to his desk.

"Play on your phone for like 30 minutes. Then we'll go to the new company."

"You couldn't have sent for me when you were actually there? I could have at least shopped more at the mall.

Emir put his pen down and smiled sarcastically at her.

"Welcome to the adult world, Mrs. Zeynep. You have to wake up at 6 in the morning and be at work at 9. And in case you've forgotten little one, we're married. We're expected to be everywhere together.''

"You say that to the woman who can't stand you for more than two minutes!''

"At least at the new company, you'll get your own office."

"Thanks God."

Zeynep was on her phone playing design games. It took Emir 45 minutes to finish his work, and Zeynep was happy when they were finally at the new company.

Zeynep followed Emir into his new office. It was blue, like his room was.

"So, where's my office?"

Emir pointed to the double doors connected to his room.

"The room that connects to mine. Y'know, cause we're married." He winked at her.

Zeynep rolled her eyes. Emir bey was happy to remind her of their union.

He followed her to her new office, which was white, and only had the basic furniture.

"You can design the space as you like." Emir told her as he sat in the guest chair across her main table.

Zeynep sat in her own office chair and spun in it. Emir scoffed at her childishness.

"So what the big plan, little one?"

Zeynep clasped her hands on the table and looked at Emir with a dead serious expression.

"That's where you come in. I was hoping you would have some."

Emir turned serious. "Do you have any idea what you're doing?"

"Well, given that I was a design student up till two days ago? Not a clue.''

Emir smacked the table and fell back in his chair. "Mashallah."

"What did you expect? I've just become a part of this since yesterday."

"Oh you have so much to learn, little one."
