Ticket To Lover's Land

The Meet.

Yeah, finally the day has arrived. Today at 4:30 pm I have a meeting to attend. I was all excited for the day and well prepared.

Neatly dressed, I arrived at his office. Half an hour early. To reach early is good than to be late and spoil your reputation straight away. I preferred to take lift. Pressed the button indicating 10th floor. Within seconds I stepped were I wanted to.
It was an enormous wing, and I didn't know where to make my next move.
'I need help'.
Simply spoke to myself. At the back of my head my nerves were pounding. GOD!... I was nervous. But that was quite certain.

I walked a bit further were a lady greeted me. She got a sweet voice, blond hair with perfect body type. Must be in her 30s.
'Good evening , Miss Smith.'
Wonder she recognized me. I greet her back.

'this way, ma'am'.
Didn't knew French people can speak English so well. But even if she was in Paris, her accent was British.
' here you go.' she said.
Finally we reached to the end of the long corridor.
She opened the door ajar for me to enter. As I entered she left, like she was so quiet. I didn't even come to know that she already left.

I was the first one to come. So, I just sat there welcoming the beauty of the Meeting Room. Designed perfectly in a monotonic color theme. After all designers were going to meet at this very place, this needs to be adorable.

After 5 minutes everyone started to enter one by one in the room filling the empty chairs. They congratulated me because I was the one who got selected for this job.
But the person who I was so anxious to meet didn't turn up for the meeting. Feeling disappointed I finally asked the people.
' where is Mr Williams? I mean like he was the one to conduct this meet.'
Suddenly every person's eye was set on me, like you girl don't you know he was not about to attend this meeting. '

A man of about 50 he said,
' my dear girl, of course, he was the one to conduct this meet but he never attend this kind of meetings. He leaves this work for his manager to do'.
'oh!...' I said being neutral.
Soaking every piece of information.
Somehow I went through the meeting event without bursting into tears. It just ruined the whole thing... Just the whole thing. He can't do this. Like he should have attend the meeting, it is not something less important. I was going to be his assistant.

After reaching home, I went straight to my bed. With a bottle of red wine. Could not bear the pain, tears rolled down my cheeks. Then I decided what I need to do the next day.
