《In His Office》Chapter 28
Advertisement
I was standing in front of the huge building with a coffee in one hand and a bagel in other. How was I going to face everyone again? Everybody knew already about our breakup and stuff. News travels fast in this world.
Most importantly how was I going to face the devil himself. Zach
I entered the building with a big heart. Amenda was on reception, she looked up and stop doing whatever she was doing.
I nervously smiled her way and she waved back just as energetically as she used to. Everything was just the same.I looked around and let my surroundings sink in.
I entered the elevator and the familiar sound binged. When I was at my destination floor the elevator opened to let me came out.
I stepped out looking around the walls, decoration in lobby , couches for waiting all were the same.
I stood infront of the very familiar dark brown wood door with the words 'Zachary' written on it. The way his name written was enough to make me swoon. Oh GOD, I was pathetic.
I knocked the door with my shaky hands and a husky musculine voice came. "Yes?" , And my inners go wild. Oh God.Help me.
I opened the door and stepped in. He was sitting on his chair wearing a white crisp shirt and his muscles were bulging out. His full lips were making me to pounce on him and kiss the sense out of him. His brows were furrowed in concentration and the bangs were falling in his eyes.
That was enough to make my legs jelly. I hold the door for support and controlling myself inched towards his desk.
When I put the coffee on his table , he looked up. When he realized that it was me, something sparkled in his eyes. Or maybe I was being delusional.

"Your coffee Sir", he grimaced at the word 'sir'.
"Hi", he greeted.
My insides started jumping in excitement when he gave me his sweetest smile but I tried to keep the facade.
"Hi", I greeted back in the most formal way.
Something in his eyes died instantly. He tried to say something but I interjected "I think I should start my work"
With that I turned around and went out of his office.Closing the door behind myself, I stood there in the hallway, trying to clear up my thoughts.
After a moment, I went to my office and turned on my laptop.I was just going to start reading an email , when my phone binged.
That was Zach's message.
"You haven't forgive me?"
It was more likely a statement than a question. I tried not to reply and put the phone down.
Why he was not taking it serious that I and Derek were together? Did he know we are pretending? Or he didn't even want to accept it?
I don't know it was really complicated. Here I am telling him that I don't want to be with him (which I am dying for)and I have moved on and he was not even taking it seriously!
My life was so messed up. I know, I should hate him for what he did to me. I know I should slap and curse him whole my life like a normal girlfriend. But the problem was, I was not like any normal girl.
I still love him after all what happened. I still want him to be in my life. I still couldn't think of living without him. I didn't know why but my feelings were still same for him. My heart still does that weird somersaults whenever I see him.
Maybe because I knew that he regretted what he did. Maybe I could still saw that love in his eyes for me. Maybe I knew that nothing was his fault and Chloe was a bitch.

My heart was saying to go and hug him and tell him that I still love him. He was just a room away.But my brain was shouting 'No Emily No! Let's make him jealous'
I love it when he is jealous but deep down in my heart there was a fear that 'What if he will get tired of me and move on'
I shut out my brain and heart. I was already confused and they were not helping me at all.
I was so much missing Allen and Anna right now. I wanted their comforting. I wanted to hug them and weep all day.
At lunch time, I skyped Anna. She was online already so she hurriedly answered my call.
"Hey Emily!", Her excited voice came along with her jumping figure.
That brought a smile to my face.
"Hi", I greeted back.
"Hey Emily!", Allen came infront of the camera.
"Hi Allen", I waved him.
They were somewhere on the beach. The sound of water waves hitting the shore could be heard along with the shoutings of teenagers.
"I hate you guys. You are enjoying there and I am in a miserable condition. You guys didn't even call me once to see if I was even alive. I am in such a terrible situation. I hate y-"
I was rambling on like a depressed woman when Allen interjected.
"Whoa whoa wait! What happened?!", he asked
"And we are sorry Emily", Anna added with an apologetic look on her face which instantly melted my heart.
I nodded and smiled signaling that I forgave them.
"So how's Zach?", She wiggled her eyes.
My smile instantly feel off my face.
"We broke up", I told them sadly.
"What?", They both yelled in unison
"Why?", Anna asked.
"He cheated on me"
"I knew he was a bastard", Allen said angrily.
It felt good that someone cared about me.
I told them each and everything from start. How Chloe was a bitch and what she did.When I was done, it felt light hearted. My tears were running down my cheeks.
"Stop weeping Emy!", They tried to comfort me.
"But you know you are doing good by making him jealous", Anna said
I nodded and smiled.
"I didn't like it how you have already replaced us with Derek", Allen said.
I laughed at him "You are jealous?"
"Ha. Jealous and from him!", He spat playfully.
After then we laughed for 15 minutes, telling eachother stories. I was telling them how I met Derek and they told me how much they are enjoying there.
Just a half an hour talk with them was enough to make me feel good.
Now I was a little bit more confident whatever I was doing.
