Ilham:
Bing!
Bing!!
Bing!!!Ohh...... Shut up stupid alarm. It was time for fajr prayer(first prayer of the day),I lazily pulled my ass to the bathroom and performed wudhu(ablution). I got out and wore my hijab then spread my prayer mat and pray, I decided to read the Qur'an before going to bed.
I read a few pages then kept the Qur'an on the book shelf and went back to sleep and soon I was fast asleep.
Ding!
Ding!!
Ding!!!Ahhhhhh my stupid alarm again. It was 7:30 and I have to be at work by 9am sharp or even before that, well you know being the boss isn't so easy,gotta set an example to all my employees and being punctual to work is a must for everyone.
I got in the bathroom and took a quick shower,then got dressed and headed downstairs for breakfast.The food was already prepared and I quickly gulped everything down.
I got into my Mercedes Benz and drove out of the house.
I reached the office in no time and parked my car in the parking lot. As soon as I entered the office my employees started greeting me, I replied back to them and walked to the elevator and pressed the top floor.
I was greeted by a few employees and my personal assistant followed me into my office. Sitting down I faced her and asked her what was wrong.
"What's wrong Veronica?" I asked my PA who looks quite disturbed.
"Well....Ma.....uhmm... You know Mr Farouq was here the other day and today he uhmm... Sent his PA to schedule a meeting with you and I couldn't say no".
"Hahhhh ok Veronica,what time is the meeting?"
"It's in 1hour 53minutes" she replied checking her watch.
"Ok you can go now" I said back.
She walked out and I got back to work. I worked on a new project and signed a few documents. Not realizing how time passed,I heard a knock on the door and said a come in without looking up at who was there.
"Miss Ilham?" I looked up to see Veronica standing a few feets from the door way.
"Yes?"
"It's time for the meeting" I nodded my head and dismissed her.
I got up and walked to the conference room.
I salaamed and a few answered back.
I took a sit facing the devil himself and soon the meeting began. I don't even know why he's so interested in this deal. But after several reasoning I concluded it wasn't a bad idea to join hands with him actually.
Farouq group of industries is known all around the world,not that the Ilham groups' isn't but I gotta admit the Farouqs' are well known across the world and that will only make my company move higher and will gain us both a good profit.
It might sound like I'm being selfish but I'm not,I just want to make this company really great and my late parents proud.
We agreed on the deal and it's a 50%-50% deal,after a lot of reasoning.
We walked out of the conference room after some few handshakes and I walked straight to my office.
After a minute or two the devil came in barging into my office without knocking.
"You do know there's something called 'knocking' right?" I asked sarcastically air quoting the word knocking.
"Not sure Miss Ilham but I will be sure to remember to add it in my vocabulary" he said smirking. Devil!!!!!
I turned on my laptop and decided to work and not focus on him but after a few minutes of silence. I got curious and looked up to see him sitting on the couch and starring at me as well as eating my apple!!
"Next time,be more polite and ask for it please" I said rolling my eyes at him.
"So tell me how did a girl like you manage to build up such a great empire, I must say I'm impressed" he said ignoring my previous statement.
"Your not the only good business man around you know"
"Hahaha I doubt so, although, I don't mean to brag about it" he replied and I just rolled my eyes at him again.
I looked down at my laptop and seconds later I feel someone pull me up and yanked me on the wall with my back kissing the wall. Well that was painful.
"Miss Ilham,I think you have a habit of rolling your eyes even at your business partners but I will most certainly not take that" he said his voice high and deep.
"Am I understood?" He asked his eyes dark that I had no option but to nod my head.
"Good and I have to leave now I will see you in the next meeting ok" and again I nodded my head in response.
And with that he let go of my arms and walked out of my office. Ahhhhhh....he had the guts to do that but I must admit I got really scared.
And now I hate Him even more.
