Whom are you taking?

I was about to turned when my mouth blurted out.

''Whom are you taking?'' I asked him looking nervously in his eyes.

You shouldn't have asked him that.

He don't like if any employee asked him anything back...

''I am the boss. I could take anyone or everyone.'' He said while getting back to his writing.

''Umm..sure Sir. Thank you. Sir.''

I went to my office and send it to everyone.

Someone knocked on my door.

It was obvious the person is not James because he would not waste his time in knocking. He liked to barge in offices and apartments.

Does he do the same with everyone?

Or is my office or aparment is special to him?

There was another knock.

''Please come inside.''

Lucy came with two cups of coffee. She gave one to me and then sat down on the chair with another cup in her hand.

''I hope..i am not disturbing your work.'' She smiled feeling guilty.

''Nope. Not at all. I am done with the work.''

One sec.. there was not her name in any of the list.

Did he forget to mention her or he didn't do it purposely?

''I am glad that you all are going to a trip.'' She said smiling sadly.

Oh.. she knows.

''Yeah.. i think he forgot to add your name.''

''No he didn't. Actually he told me that as i am new i will not get the privilege. But he told me i will get all the privileges after six months.''

Oh..

''Umm..do you want to go?'' I asked her and her eyes dilated.

She nodded a yes.

''Fine. You can come with me.'' Her smile widens.

''Thank you so much. Liza.'' She said happily.

''Umm..but i don't have any dress... Can i borrow your dress which you got on your birthday?''

WHAT??

What the...

''NO.'' I said sternly.

She could borrow any of my dresses but it is my birthday gift. Right?

And when it is given by him.

Never.

''Sorry. I..i was not thinking.. umm..can i borrow any of your dresses?'' She corrected her statement.

''Sure. You can.'' I said giving a forced smile.

I really don't like her presence..

When it was Ben..i used to feel warm...

But in presence of this girl i could feel the atmosphere chilled.

''Thank you.'' She smiled and took our cups which were now emptied.

*******

We didn't have any car so Mr. Ashton came to picked us by himself.

I can't believe this.
