Hacking into my Hyper-linked Heart

Chapter 15- Guilty Feelings

"Shush, you are once again over thinking again."

"N-" I started to speak but Sally beat me to it.

"Don't you dare say 'I'm not over thinking,'" Mimicking my voice.

"I do not sound like that." I said moodily as I glared at her

She just shrugged as she carried on "Why are you feeling guilty? Just because you forgot to message him? Don't worry about it, the reason you forgot was cause you were stressed out with the job interview and it is perfectly normal to focus on something you want. You have your own life to live you can't just stop living it just to daydream about a crush. "

That made perfect sense to me. Sally's words helped me to feel slightly better.

"Thank you, Sally." I hugged her tightly.

"You're welcome, now you message him and I'm off to bed, Good night" She said as she made her way to the door. I focused my attention back onto the screen. Hmm what can I write back to him? I clicked on the 'new message' icon and started typing my response:

To: Chris

Firstly I am not mad at you so don't worry, it may be hard to believe but I was really busy. So I apologise for not messaging you sooner. Whereas your comment about you making a difference in my life ....well I am not sure about that :P

From MD

I re-read the message to ensure I was happy with it, when I decided I was I clicked on the 'send' icon. I roamed around the profile to see so many messages from different guys but no-one really caught my attention. I was about to log off when I saw the 'message' icon light up. I clicked on it to see I already got a response to my message. I clicked on it to read.

From: Chris

Thank god you aren't mad at me.. I really wouldn't know what to do to make it up to you :P Plus I do believe you when you say you were busy :)

How could you say you're not sure about me making a difference to your life? Those words just pierced a hole in my heart..I know for a fact that you have a made a difference in my life.

From CC

I couldn't help but re-read the last sentence hundred times until it sunk into my head. I, Myra Dawn made a difference in Chris Chezny's life. I wanted to get up and jump around in happiness. Those words made my heart flutter when I first read them but now after re-reading them it feels like it's not really happening, like I'm imagining those words. I instantly replied back to Chris.

To: Chris

Well you could have always made it up to me by taking me on a date :P

Fine I unwilling admit you do make a difference in my life :D

From MD

Before I could even blink I already had a message from Chris.

To: Myra

Hmmm a date...interesting...why not... would you agree if I ask you?

Now that last sentence made my day :D

From CC

I sat there shocked as I read the message. My heart literally stopped beating for a second when I read the first sentence.

Is he seriously asking me on a date?

Or is this a hypothetical situation?

What should I write?

I am so confused right now.

I just wrote 'take me on a date' as a joke not literally meaning it.

Arghh I need to stop over thinking stuff, Sally is so right I do over think. I took a deep breath and let me fingers type away without me over thinking anything.

To Chris:

Hmm well you will get your answer when you do ask :P

From MD

As soon as I sent the message I logged off instantly not wanting to read his reply yet. I was feeling too excited right now so I decided to freshen up before going to bed. I wiped my make up off and brushed my teeth, I was brushing my hair when I heard my phone vibrate. I went into my room and picked up my phone and saw that the ID was private. I sat down on the edge of my bed as I bit my lip and thought who would ring me on private number especially at this time, well there was one way to find out.

"Hi Myra, it's Ethan."

As soon as I heard his name my heart sunk, butterflies erupted in my stomach. "Ethan" I whispered.

"I hope I didn't wake you up."

"Oh no you didn't."

"I'm really sorry about what happened today, it was a matter I couldn't ignore. I won't be able to reschedule you in as I have a busy few weeks ahead of me."

I sighed in defeat, "Oh -"

Ethan didn't let me finish my sentence "So I would need a personal assistant who is hard working , so are you up for it?"

I quickly got up with my mouth wide open, shock clearly evident on my face. "D-do you mean I got the job?" I stuttered.

"Yes but let me tell you I am not an easy man to work for, when it comes to my company I am hard working and I expect the same from my workers."

"OMG Yes, I promise you I will not let you down." I answered excitedly.

He chuckled which caused me to smile "Good to hear, I will see you on Monday at my office at 9 am sharp."

"Yes okay"

"Bye Myra"

"Bye" I pulled the phone away from my ear and started jumping up and down. OMG I got the job. I felt so happy I wanted to reach for the stars at that moment. I instantly fell asleep with a smile on my face.
