Friday evening after work me and my best friend Iris, we both go to our favorite cafè to have milkshakes, cookies and chats and gossips all week.
Iris: Finally the weekend is here, I'm so relieved.
Cassie: My God! Yes. This week was tiring. It feels like Friday came after two damn weeks.
Iris: What! Are you kidding me? This week was amazing for me.
Cassie: Yeah yeah! I know, because your father is not in New York, right?
Iris dramatically said: oh Cassie! You know me too well. By the way what are you doing after this?
Cassie: Well first I'm visiting your brother's school because the children must be waiting for me, well actually they wait for all the candies I buy for them.
Iris laughed hard.
Cassie: Then I have a date with Sammy tonight.
Iris: What? I thought someone told me no time for girls night out tonight!
Cassie: Okay don't get too emotional because after the date, I have to work up all night. That's why I'm not even going home tonight.
Iris: So, you're coming over.
Cassie: Yep! Staying at your place. I need your lab to work tonight.
Iris: Well you know you don't have to ask for my permission to use my things. Just like I don't bother asking before using your things.
Cassie: Haha! And I don't mind that you know. Well I better get going. I don't wanna be late. I'm going to Chris'. I need to get back before 7. I can't go on a fancy date in my work clothes.
Iris: Yeah yeah! Don't even bother explaining it to me. I don't wanna Know a thing about that fame starved boyfriend of yours. I don't know how you're even with him. I remember you never even liked men like him.
Cassie: Well, to be honest, I also don't know, I still think it's just a joke or dream or something. But really he's not so bad. I mean we're together for two years.
Iris: Oh! You can stay with anyone more than longer. It's him who surprises me.
Cassie: See, In a while you'll like him too.
Iris: Yeah! It hasn't happened in two and a half years since we met him.
Cassie: Hush! I'm still hoping for good.
With that I got up, Start walking towards my car and Iris shouted.
Iris: Remind my brother he also has a biological family.
Cassie: Haha! Fine. I'll tell him that.
Chris, Christopher Liam Hunt, Son of my boss and he has no interests in his family business. He made his own dreams come true. He worked so hard for years and created a school for all kinds of handicap children. I visit them every Friday with lots of candies and I wait all the week to spend time with all those kids and also with Chris. He is a great teacher, well at least for me. Whenever I have an issue I can't resolve, I talk to Chris, well yeah, He is a psychologist but still he knows how to resolve my issue. Or at least give me ideas so I can resolve my problems by myself.
I parked my car in the lot and I heard CANDIES ARE HERE.
Miss polly: Cassie is here with candies children.
Seth: Sorry miss Polly! Everyone, Cassie is here...
Miss Polly is one of the teachers in Chris's school. She is very lovely and sweet.
Miss Polly: Sorry the kids do that sometimes.
Cassie: It's ok. I like to see them excited. Go everyone candies are waiting for you in my car.
Riley asked me in sign language: Where are my candies?
I replied to her in sign language: Your candies are in the driving seat. Go get them girl.
She laughed and ran towards my car. Riely is a deaf and dumb child. She can't hear or speak. So just for her I learned sign language from Chris to talk to her without anyone's help.
Miss Polly: She just loves you.
Cassie: Yeah and I love her too. Now tell me where is your boss?
Miss Polly: Oh! Mr. Hunt is in his office. Just be careful, today is not a good day.
Cassie: Oh! One of those days.
Miss Polly: Yep! One of those days.
Chris and his father, My Boss, are very much alike. Except for the anger. In 8 years, I can't remember Mr. Hunt getting angry like Chris. Chris ain't got angry easily but once he gets angry his staff avoid facing him.
Chris to his staff: I clearly told you all about this week's schedule then why nobody followed?
Staff member: Sir we...
Chris:I don't want your explanation, I want answers. And I....
Just then I stepped in and clapped my hands once.
Cassie: Okay everyone the meeting is over. You all can go now.
Chris: What? Cassie....
Cassie: Shhh! I'm talking here.
Staff members mouthed the words before leaving.
THANK YOU....
With that I turned to Chris who is now smiling and not angry anymore.
Cassie: you're welcome, Mr Hunt.
Chris: You're a disaster Cassie. You Know I have to put a sign board just for you not to come in my room while I'm in a meeting.
Cassie: Meeting! Really? You call it meeting, you were eating them alive.
Chris: Anyways, What would you like to have?
Cassie: Well my original favorite.
Chris ordered on the phone:" Hot chocolate and chocolate chip cookies for two."
Then he put his work aside, leaned over on his desk and asked me.
Chris: So what is bothering you Miss Wolf?
Cassie: Well, you know, It's Sam
Chris raised a brow and ask,
Chris: What about him?
Cassie: I don't know, I'm a little confused about him. I mean I really don't understand what he wants? It's like I'm not even in this relationship. Two days ago, I let down Iris for the girls night out and yesterday he asked.. no actually he ordered me for a date tonight and I had to agree. Sometimes I think Iris is right about him.
