The director of fashion designing department laughed sheepishly trying to act friendly in front of the CEO.
"Boss, you are so intelligent."
Sian adjusted his glasses with index finger.
"What about the new comers? Let's give them an assignment of designing shirts." He came towards the plan he made last night.
"10 shirts will be good."
"Fifty..by Monday."
"Monday?" The director gulped. It was impossible to make fifty shirts in two days.
"I will personally check it. Now you can leave." Sian motioned towards the door and director laughed.
"Of course boss. Don't worry. I will make sure they will work hard."
After he left, Sian smiled evilly. He leaned back on his chair and waited until the office hours ended.
Debra knocked at the door and entered.
"Sir, are you not going home?"
"Yeah, I will leave in some time." Sian replied calmly. He didn't want to reach home early before Gwen.
"Then, can I invite you for dinner?" Debra smiled seductively but Sian was too busy in his thoughts to notice it.
"I have dinner with my family tonight. May be some other time." He gently refused her and got up to left the office.
..............
As expected, Sian found Gwen covered with papers on the same spot where she usually work. She was cursing director non stop and looked gloomy.
Sian didn't say anything to her but went inside his room to change clothes. He came out and found her still gloomy and sad.
He went inside kitchen to make coffee for himself but then decided to make for Gwen too as she looked tired.
He came out with two cups and placed one in front of her. Gwen quickly picked it without saying anything and Sian frowned. He was expecting a little thank you.
Sian sat on the couch while Gwen was still sitting on floor.
"Aren't you going to your parent's house?"
"Si..an, the director gave us an assignment and I am trying my best but still I only made one design. I think I need to cancel my plan." Gwen sighed while Sian quickly brought the cup to his lips to hide his smile.
"I really wanted to go home. I was missing them." Gwen pouted and put her head on the table.
"Stop acting like a kid."
"Old ghost." Gwen murmured but Sian clearly heard her.
"We can go early if you want." Sian calmly asked her while Gwen quickly lifted her head. She smiled brightly and Sian felt his heart skipped a beat.
"Really, then I will get ready."
Gwen quickly got up and ran towards her room while jumping happily. Sian smiled.
"Little bunny."
Soon Gwen came out. She was wearing a white dress which reached to her mid thighs with white sneakers. Her hairs were tied in a ponytail and she looked like a doll.
"How am I looking?"
Sian quickly came out of his trance and looked away.
"Don't you have anything more short." He sarcastically asked her.
"I think I have. Should I change?" Gwen asked him while looking at herself.
"No." Sian quickly got up.
"I will change then."
He left while feeling something strange in the pit of his stomach.
He came out wearing black pant and white shirt. Gwen put her hands over her cheeks.
"Si..an, you are looking so handsome. Ah, my heart..." She placed one hand over her heart and smiled.
Sian felt his ear burning. He tried not to smile.
"Si..an, let's go."
Gwen held his arm who cleared his throat while looking away.
"Your ears are red." Gwen giggled while Sian wanted to glare at her but wasn't able to. His heart was beating fast and he was scared that Gwen would hear it.
