《My famous boss (gxg)》Chapter 52
Advertisement
"Good morning sleepy head." I say as Selena walks into the kitchen at around 10am.
"When did you get up?" She asks sitting down next to me.
"6:30." I say sipping on my tea.
"you can't possibly be serious?" She asks yawning.
"I had a run, then I showered and had to take care of some things at HQ. After that I came back here." She looks at me with eyes wide open.
"Are you hungry? I can make you some breakfast quickly." I offer.
"Did you eat?" She asks
"Of course." I lie.
If we're being honest. It is getting harder for me to eat three meals a day. I just can't gather an apetite these days. I eat yes, but small amounts. At least for the others to stop worrying about me.
I made Selena some waffles and coffee while she tried to wake herself up on my counter.
"Where is Richard?" She asks
"He went to get a few needed groceries. He should be home soon." I answer giving her the plate and the coffee.
"What about Miriam? I haven't seen her either." She says taking a sip of coffee.
"I don't know. I saw her after I got back from my run. She's probably here somewhere." I say and sit back to drink my lukewarm tea.
"Jeez these waffles are delicious." Selena says with her mouth full.
"Thank you." I say smiling at here.
I grab a paper napkin and hand it to her. She looks at me weirdly but then I motion to my mouth and she gets the hint. She silently thanks me and takes the napkin from my hand.
"So, what do you have in mind for today?" She asks
"That is up to you. We can go to a tourist site or I can give you a more personalized tour of London and all the nicks and crannies I went to during my studies." I say
"I'm gonna pick your personalized tour. I am not a fan of famous tourist sites." She says between bites.
"We're going to have to stop by the office beforehand. I hope you don't mind." I say anxious
"Of course I don't mind. It's Saturday though. What do you have to do today?" She asks curiously.
"I have a package to drop off to accounting and we'll be good to go."
"Cool. Can I come with you? I want to see your office." She asks
"I mean yeah, sure. We won't stay long."
"Fine by me." She says finishing her meal.
"I am going go get changed and I'll wait for you in the car." I say walking out
"Which one?" She asks
"White range rover." I shout and go up the stairs.
I need to wear something nice today. Not too nice though.
I decided to wear some white shorts with a white top. No matter how hot it is outside I will not go out with anything over it just in case. So I put ona striped shirt over that. I put on some trainers and socks. Now it is time for jewelry. I got myself a gold chain and gold rings to go with the look. I dom't plan of carrying a lot with me so I got a plain black bag to put my phone and wallet inside.

I plan on buying something for Selena. Some jewelry perhaps? I'm still not sure what to get. After I am done with my makeup I grab my keys and go to the garage to get my car. We have an underground garage so it doesn't look bulky. My dad made it so that not everyone can see his ridiculous car collection. Yes, you heard it right. Collection. He has 15 cars underneath our house. All different models and sizes. I drive only four. I can't stand manual cars.
I wait in the car for about ten minutes before I hear the door open. Selena jumps in and buckles her seat belt right away.
"Where are we going first?" She asks as I drive.
"The Adams." I say my company's name and she just smiles.
I drive to the entrance and I am let in immediately. They know my car so they always pull up the ramp just before I come in. I park my car in my parking spot and lock it when the both of us are out.
"Where is that package?" She asks
I show her a USB and she just nods. We get into the elevator and I press onto the top floor.
"Fancy." she mutters looking around.
"Your elevator music is Taylor Swift?" She asks as we walk out.
"You know it is." I say smiling at her.
I walk her to my office because she really wanted to see it.
"Knock yourself out. I'll be on the floor bellow." I say and she nods, looking around the place.
After I handed Maxine the USB I walked back to my office. Selena was sitting in mu chair looking outside.
"Do you like it?" I ask
"I love it. It is so cool. You have a real job Lena." She says smiling at me.
"I guess I do." She laughs and stands up.
"This is straight out of a movie type office. Like this complex reminds me of that one movie... did you watch.. um whats the name...oh right... Did you watch Devil wears prada?" She struggles.
"Of course I did." I laugh.
"That is what this building reminds me of. Only the head is not a self centered queen of media but you."
"Ouch. That hurt." I pretend she hurt my feelings.
"Oh no no. I didn't mean it like that. I actually think the boss in the movie is a bitch." She says
"Aaah you take that back. Miranda Priestly is an icon. A legend." I defend. She laughs and looks at me weirdly.
"Everything okay?" I ask
"no.. yeah. everything is fine." she says clearing her throat.
"Let's get out of here." I say and she nods.
I first took her to one of my favourite café's in England. It is a small place with fairy light displayed everywhere. I remember going here on my days off to study because there aren't many customers who would make a lot of noise. They were mostly students and people who would carry their work with them so it was fairly nice there.

Selena fell in love with it. She even took pictures of it and posted them on her instagram. She got a call so she went to answer it in the room next to us. I just sat there until she returned.
"Everything okay?" I ask her.
"Yeah, everything is perfect." she says and smiles forcefully. I don't push. I know how it can get.
"Where are we headed to next?" She asks
"Do you want to go have some fun?" I ask her.
"What kind of fun?" She asks
"There is an art studio a street away. They have these projects where anyone can participate. They give cool prizes to people who want to be the best at it. I remember this was a custom for years. I can call to see if they are still doing it?" I say.
"I don't want to ruin my clothes. Maybe some other time?" She declines.
"Of course." I say disssapointed.
We decided to take a walk around town. I showed her my campus and some cool little things. I took pictures of her and she loved it. I don't know whats up with her but she seems off, in some way. I get a text all of a sudden.
Hi, I hope you're having fun in England:)
Oh fucking great. There goes my mood. She couldn't have waited for me to at least come back home. I breathe out and Selena catches the change in my mood almost immediately.
"Hey, are you good?" She asks
"Scarlett texted me." I say.
"Why are you so distressed about?" She asks and I hand her my phone.
"Do you still feel anything for her?" She asks and I look up at the water in front of us.
"Do you want to talk about it?" She asks carefully.
"I don't know what to say. I mean.. Yes. I feel something for her. Jesus I feel everything for her. She is one of the most precious humans alive. I hate that she hurt me though. I put her on a pedestal only for her to disappoint me. I want to forgive her."
"Why don't you?"
"Because.. because I'm afraid she'll do it again.. and again.. and again and so on." I say
"She won't if you don't let her to."
"I can't limit myself with her Selena. I either give my all or nothing." I say
"Do you love her?" She asks
"I.. I think I do. I..You must think I'm crazy by now." I say looking away.
"Lena. No one who loves is crazy. No one who feels something as strong as you do should never use that adjective to describe themselves. You are the most kindest soul I've ever met." She says
"Thank you Selena."
"You're welcome honey. You deserve all the love there is. You can forgive her if you want. I can tell she feels something for you too." She says
"I think she just sees me as a thrill." I admit.
"You'll never know if you don't see for yourself." She says and we sit there for almost an hour. We walk through the streets and I stop at a Cartier shop.I'm getting here something from here.
I've noticed she likes simple jewelry and wears almost only gold. So I thought I'd buy her a standard Cartier bracelet.
"Can you try this for me?" I ask her and she nods.
"Does it fit" I ask
"Yeah. Like I glove why?" She asks
"Can I get two of those? One in silver and the other in gold." I ask the shop assistant and she nods going behind the counter.
"What are you doing?" Selena asks putting down the bracelet on the counter.
"I like giving gifts." I say smiling at her.
"What? No I can't let you do that."
"Would you like to pay cash or credit" the assistant asks
"Here is my card." I say and she takes it from my hands.
"I'm not asking." I say and hand her the bag.
"Lena. I swear to god.. you're something else." She says blushing like crazy.
We walked to my car because we were very tired from walking for hours.
"Which one is mine?" She asks.
"Both of them." I say and start the car.
"Lena!" She whines.
"What you don't like them?" I ask
"I love them." she says tearing up.
"Aw don't cry. I already told you I want to get you a gift. Now you have two different ones so you can pair them with different things." I say looking at the road.
"Chris was right. You're absolutely insane. He told me you were gonna get me something. He even told me that is wasn't going to be below 2000$. I didn't believe him." She says putting on the gold one.
"What can I say. I like spending money on my friends." I say
"And we all love you and hate you for it." She says
"I know hun. I know you love me"
"Oh we got an invite to Jeremy's party. He told us to bring you." Selena says
"Great. Another event where I'll have to out up with Scarlett. Fabulous."
