The CEO and his intern

Chapter 4: Again!!

Now that Bright was feeling much better he headed to his desk to resume his office work, Gulf on the other hand headed to his locker to keep the expensive bag safe and give it to the jerk when he meets him. Gulf was not foul-mouthed but once a while some people deserved it. On his way to the locker he received a text from his sister, so he was replying to her when he bumped again. Was today a bumping day he though as he looked and his voice was stuck in his throat.

"You should not be on your phone during working hours " the jerk said.

"I am on lunch break" Gulf said as politely as he could then he remembered the bag. "Here"

"What is this??" The jerk inquired

"Replacement for spoiling your suit, please don't report me to HR" Gulf said

"You are replacing my Alexander Amosu Vanquish Bespoke suit with a cheap shirt" the jerk sneered

"Mouse Vanish...what" Gulf murmured dumb-fondly.... What ever the name was he could guess it was expensive

"So, this won't work" Gulf said as a matter of factly and proceed to put the shirt in the bag

"I'll take it, but this is not the end of it" he said as he pulled the bag off Gulf's hand

"What else can I do to make up for it?" Gulf asked, scared that his salary might be deducted.

"I'll send a notice later ....... Keep your eyes open for it" he said and walked away.

What has Gulf got himself into... he thought ...... the day didn't get any better in the evening.

Supervisor Puifai was on their heads again, demanding work to be done before the boys leave. Not having another option they complied and work with their he'd buried into their desks.

"Puifai" Mild called out to her "the CEO is calling you" the whole floor turned towards her. Is she going to be climbing the ladder because of the hard work done by the interns.

She turned to the interns and sneered "I told you"

The weirdest part was that the notice came directly from the CEO's secretary and not the HR personnel and not even the president. She was in for something big was what everyone thought.

The evening dragged on with work for the two interns. Puifai came back to her seat and slammed the papers on her desk, she then took her bag and logged out of work.

Did things not go the way she wanted, its going to be harder for us, thought the two interns vigorously typing their works. Once finished they forwarded the email to the respective department and then Gulf remembered to send the proposal to the finance department and he did. As Gulf was packing he got a reply from the finance department to attend a meeting scheduled with regards to the proposal.

Since Gulf's meeting would probably take an hour or more, Bright decided to head home since he promised to take his sister out for dinner today.

As his way home was long he decided to work on his graduation project in the meantime. The bus reached his stop and he got off, little did he know there was someone following him. As he walked home he felt someones presence, he turned to check but there was no one. Was he scared, not in the slightest, he was ready to take anyone on but there was no one... was he imagining things, he scratched his head and continued his way home. Once home, his sister was all ready to go out for dinner. Bright's mom wanted the siblings to enjoy time so she decided to stay home.

Bright and his sister headed for dinner 30 minutes away from their stop. The walk with his sister was pleasant, she keep on mentioning how all her friends were head over heels for him and she started pairing which of her friends was the most compatible, only to reach the conclusion no one was good enough for him...... bro-con much was all he thought.

Once inside the restaurant, his sister ordered the cheapest thing on the menu and Bright sensed that she didn't want to spend his money on these things , so he forced her to get something she really wanted to eat. Bright was not a cheapskate, he would do anything for his sister. She was the apple of his eye.

"If you don't order food, I'll order everything on the menu" Bright said to her

"But, I don't want anything else other than this" she said

"Seriously, you are such a pain, why did we even come here then" Bright asked

She kept quiet and Bright knew what the answer was. He called the waiter over and order what he knew his sister loved and wanted to eat for months now, he didn't care how much is was.

The food started coming and they ate happily.

"Shall I order dessert now" Bright asked her

"No, I am full" she said

But Bright knew better that females have an extra stomach for dessert, he has heard this a million times by the female colleagues in the company. He decided not to push his sister any further and called the waiter to get the bill, but surprisingly the waiter walked towards them with matcha ice cream, molten lava cake and earl grey tea.

"We didn't order these" Bright said as the waiter placed the mouthwatering food on the table

"Service on the house" he smiled and left. Bright was puzzled, this has never happened before. He was about to call the waiter back but he saw his sisters googly eyes and stopped.

"Go ahead and eat" he gestured

"This is good, let's bring Gulf with us next time" she said and Bright smiled, Gulf was a brother to him and his sister.

He got up and headed to the cashier to pay the bill and head out.

"Table 7" Bright said

The cashier gave him the weirds look "your bill is already payed for, Sir"

Bright was puzzled, first the service and now the bill has been covered, something was not right. He quickly turned to see if his sister was still there. She came up to him and asked if everything was done

"The bill is being payed for by a gentleman, thank you for your patronage, we look forward to seeing you again" the cashier said

"Maybe, someone liked me and they covered the bill, bro" she said half-jokingly

With heavy steps Bright left the restaurant and unintentionally pulled his sister with him

"Bright, you are hurting my hand" she said

"Sorry" he let go off her hand, still in his thoughts trying to fill in puzzle pieces

"Bro, lets head home, I want to complete my work" she said

"Sure" he ruffled her head as she tried to dodge it but failed and now her hair was a mess.

She sulked ad walked 5 steps ahead of him "Sorry, sorry, I'll not do this again" he laughed and caught up to her and hugged her.

They headed home and prepared for the next day
