Mycroft and Anthea had just come to office, they were in the lobby. Suddenly, Mycroft saw the back zipper of Anthea's dress was broken. He quickly covered and hold it with his hand.
"What happened, sir?" Anthea stood still and asked Mycroft. She knew something was wrong.
"The zipper of the dress is faulty. I'm trying to keep it" Mycroft stood near Anthea and said.
"Oh my God". She tried to turn her head and put her hand back to check.
"Don't do that. It will become worse. I will take you to the restroom and will find another dress for you"
"Ok. Thank you, sir". They stood close together and slowly moved to the restroom.
Looking on from the distance, Celina saw Mycroft was holding his hands on Anthea's back and walking close to her. Celina frowned and thought "What the hell is he doing? Oh God, yesterday is Mrs.Smallwood and today is Anthea. That's so terrible"
Mycroft went out and hurried to find Anthea another dress. Suddenly, he saw Celina staring at him. He came to her, looked at her and asked "What? Why do you look at me like that?"
"I don't...I" Celina faltered.
"Forget it. I need your help. Follow me". He hold her hand and dragged her to follow him.
They crossed the street, entered a dress shop that looked quite luxurious.
"Find a dress that suits Anthea". Mycroft pointed to the dresses and told Celina.
"What?" Celina asked.
"A dress for Anthea, please" he implored.
"Why does Anthea need another dress? What did they do?" Celina frowned, pouted her lips and thought when she picked a dress.
"This one" she took out a black dress that looked quite suits Anthea.
Mycroft glanced at the dress, pouted and said "Ok. Maybe it suits Anthea. I will take it".
Celina took the dress to the counter. Glancing at the price of the dress, she rolled her eyes and thought "For God. Its price is even higher than my half-month salary". She turned to Mycroft and said "The pri.." but before she could say, he gave his card and paid it. She gaped at him in astonishment.
Mycroft turned around and saw Celina's reaction. "What? Why do you look at me with that eyes?"
"I don't...I" she faltered but before she could say anything, he had took the dress and told her to go.
They returned to the office, Mycroft hurried to the restroom and given it to Anthea.
Celina gaped, looked at Mycroft and thought "For God, she's so lucky. I wish I was also given a dress like that"
Because she was lost in thought, she didn't realize that Mycroft was standing in front of her. "What are you thinking? Why do you look at me with that eyes?" he looked at her and asked.
She startled at the sound of his voice. "Not .. nothing. I just try to remember whether there's anything I have not finished" she faltered.
He narrowed his eyes at her, thought and walked away.
------------
Day after day, Celina became gradually familiar with her job, Mycroft's temperament and his work style. She had been working there for six months. Lady saw that Celina was smart and able to move forward; therefore, she decided not to keep Celina as her assistant but rather she let Celina work with Mycroft more. Lady believed that Mycroft would help Celina promoted faster.
