Aaliyah's POV
Something inevitable happened yesterday I saw a new side of him yesterday and strangely I loved it I opened my deepest darkest secret to him I opened my wounds to him without any hesitation or worry
Next morning was awfully normal there wasn't any awkwardness or anything and today was my first day of job as well we did our breakfast quietly only the clinking sound of utensils and cutlery could be heard I was going through my Instagram checking on messages when someone cleared their throat I looked up to be met with his sea green eyes.
"We need to go don't wanna be late for work on the first day now, do we?" He asked politely I just shook my head and stood up I was wearing a pale pink blouse and skirt which just ended few inches up my knees my hair was done is a tight pony tail with a pair of pearl earrings and heels. We made our way to his audi R8 and the comfortable silence filled us in.
Soon we were parked infront of huge glass building for once I thought I strained my neck while looking at the end and realized how much of an idiot i looked like. straightened my posture and went in I was met with few glances and murmurs like always duh I decided to pay no attention to it and made my way to the elevator where Ajmal was already standing waiting for me probably I made my way to him and just as I was about to enter a girl shouted for guards to stop someone I frowned and looked around to see someone harmful but was met with none. Suddenly the guard stopped infront of me and the lady halted I was confused as hell.
"Miss I'm sorry but that's the private elevator only for the CEO and his assistant you don't even have a appointment my guards will escort you out" I watched her with amusement didn't this girl reads news or watches TV
"I hope you're okay sir, did she harm you?" I was met with her flirtous voice and for some reason I was jealous of it I excused her and made my way to my husband who was standing there with clenched jaw and I could see his hand fisting He was doing great job in controlling his anger i moved towards him and clasped my hand in his fist and saw his figure relaxing.
"Ma'am I guess you should've seen the news or read the tabloids ofcourse we won't be having this conversation and oh I'm sorry about my manners I'm aaliyah ajmal ahmed by the way" she was as pale as paper in the end and boy was I feeling pity for her I covered my snort with my cough and exactly at the time the elevator ding sound brought all of us out of trance I made my way inside and before elevator could close he finally said those magical words to her in which she cried in agony
"Miss you are fired"
As we reached the top floor which was 60 he gave me a paper which had my daily schedule for him I was met with his secretary who was suprisingly a man he gave me all the details about what has to be done and how and every other thing and within 30 minutes i was in charged with his schedule I was engrossed in keeping the files alphabetically when the buzzer rang I made my way to his office wondering what that jerk really wanted his next meeting was after 30 minutes.
"You asked for me sir?" I popped my head inside his cabin
"Yes Mrs. Ajmal could you get me a cup of coffee"
I swear he just had one like 20 minutes before if this is the pace he won't be able to sleep at night deciding against my thoughts I made my way to pantry and made his coffee after 10 minutes it was lunch time I just entered his cabin and more like ordered him to let me go for lunch and made my way to the cafeteria and found myself an empty table again the whispers started as if I gave a damn about it suddenly I sensed a figure howering over me I looked up and almost fainted.
This human almost looked like god to me he was drop dead gorgeous 'but not as gorgeous as ajmal' my subconscious commented me and I stopped myself did I just compared him to this guy god this craziness better be one time thing.
"Hey can I sit here" he asked I looked around and found cafeteria was full and the only seat left was here I motioned him to sit.
"Hi I'm arshad kotiyal, and you are?" He spoke with his melodic voice I quickly pulled my self out of trance.
"Hi, I'm aaliyah ajmal ahmed. Nice to meet you" I saw his mouth agape and sigh now I just scared a gorgeous man away ughh fuck my life.
"Oh so you're the infamous aaliyah ahmed I work here as a finance manager and you must be the special secretary I guess" he had this boyish smile and I swore I was glint of happiness in them as if he just won lottery I nodded shyly
"Would you mind becoming my friend? Cause honestly half of the people here either loathe me or want me in their bed and it gets lonely in here" he gave me puppy dog eyes god how could I no to it.
"Ofcourse I'll be your friend and don't worry I don't loath you neither do I want you in my bed" we shared our numbers and talked for a while when I realized its just 10 min for the meeting I excused my self and made my way to my desk.
I pulled out the file for the meeting, gave him the reminder and made my way to the meeting room to set up the required things once done people started to pile up and I greeted them with a smile and handshake sometime the next person almost made my breath hitch no matter how many times I warn him he always makes his way back in I ignored and decided to act professionally.
Soon my dear husband graced up with his presence and started the meeting started in the middle of the meeting the asshole decided to speak
"Mrs. Ahmed aren't you tiered of standing please have a seat I wouldn't like your feet paining the next morning I can tell you never liked heels before" I just rolled my eyes at his comment and was just about to give him a signature reply when my dear husband pulled me to his lap
"Darling you could barely walk after last night so stupid of me to think that these heels were good to run along come have a seat" I was totally resembling tomato or maybe I could put tomato to shame with all these red I had become. And on the other hand he was as pale as paper. I snorted quietly thankfully no one was looking at us and I was praying with my dear life to get done with this meeting as soon as possible.
