Destined to be together

Chapter 4

It still feels too good to be true I thought to myself standing in front of the mirror.
It’s my first day at Martínez enterprise. I still can’t believe I am actually an intern there. A small smile appeared on my face but it faded away as soon as I remembered his face.
I will do everything possible to not face him.
I headed downstairs picking up my bag.

Finally.

I was standing in front of the Martínez enterprise.

It’s huge.

Okay now don’t ruin everything panicking, you got this.
Yup.

I took a deep breath and entered the building.

I went to the reception. The receptionist smiled brightly looking at me.

“Hello, how can I help you?” she asked giving me a comforting smile.

"Uhm… I- I am here for.. for the internship…"

“oh yeah sure. Your name?”

"April A-Adams."

“Go to the 10th floor, 2nd room to the left”

"Thank you," I said giving her a small smile.

I get on the elevator and pressed the button to the 10th floor.

“Wait!! wait!! wait!!” someone yelled,
I stopped the elevator.

A man jumped inside rushing.

He was way taller than me. Also looked older than me. Dark Grey eyes. A backpack on his shoulder, he was wearing casual clothes, unlike others at the office. Is he an intern too?

“Thank you,” he said.
I gave a slight nod and pressed the button.

This is creepy, why is he looking at me?

I could feel a strong glare.
Is he a murderer or something?
Don’t lookup
Breathe….breathe….

“Hey I think I’ve seen you somewhere.” the man said.

Okay, this is bad. Why is he talking to me?
Don’t lookup.

“Yeah, it’s you. You came in front of our car that day”

what car is the….. wait… I looked up at him confused.

“Yeah, you are ms. droopy face”
What?
what did he just say?

"I am not." I whispered. But he heard me.

“yes you are I have seen you twice and both the time you had a droopy face.”
I didn’t give him any answer.
“Hi, it’s David,” he said extending his hand for a shake.

"um… It’s Ap…"

“Oh I know your name its's droopy face,” he said teasing me.

I looked at him angrily.

He let out a chuckle “ okay sorry… sorry”

“ By the way what are you doing here ?”

"Internship," I said not looking at him.

“Internship? I didn’t know high school kids have internship programs now”

What?
Do I look like a high school student?

I may be 5’1 but I do not look like a high school student!

“ Hey! I am a final year university student” I said angrily.

My face must be looking like a tomato now because of how angry I was.
No one has ever told me I look like a high school kid.
Ugh…….

“Stop lying.”

I am not lying, I said sternly showing him my ID card.
He let out a chuckle “okay, I believe you.”

The elevator door opened and we both got out.

“Okay then see you later shorty” he laughed again.

I swear I am going to kill him!!!!!!!!!!

I was about to shout at him when a voice froze me in my place.

“David, What are you doing here?”

That voice, I know that voice too well.
The one person in the entire world whom I wanted to avoid is standing right behind me.

“Hey bro, I came to drop some papers dad gave me.”

They are brothers?
what is going on?

I stood there frozen. Don’t have any intention or strength in me to look back and face him.

“Excuse me, are you looking for something?”

This is bad. This is really bad.

I took a deep breath and turned around.

“What are you doing here?” there was a drastic change in his tone.

"I...I came……"

“I clearly remember what I said in the interview. Did you not get what I meant? Or do you think it’s not necessary to listen to my orders?”

“ I have to say you have some guts to come all the way here. Who did even allowed you to come here?”

I started shaking with fear. Tears start flowing down my cheeks.

“Speak up!” he yelled
I flinched at his action.

“ I’m saying it for the last time, get out of here and never show me your stupid face” and with that, he stormed out passing me.

what a great start.
It’s the first day and I have already been fired.

I stood there not knowing what to do next.

“Bro” David yelled, following him.
