HIS TRUE BEAUTY

**BEAUTY’S POV**

I went home devastated. I couldn’t control myself, I cried for hours till I had a serious aching in my head.

That night I didn’t sleep well,

I thought of him, Sir Bruno…

Did he really mean those words , he said to me?

It can’t be possible.

A man like Bruno inlove with someone like me?

I shouldn’t be too naive, I have learnt alot of lessons, so I fall for this again then I am such a coward.

I sighed deeply

Te next morning, I woke up earlier, dressed for work, I put on my office wear, and my shoes got ready to go, picked up my phone then my notifications popup sounded on my phone, I had to check.

This week is our trip!

We always have this trip once every year, this year we are invited by the best fashion company in paris for collaboration.

Also we will visit Columbia for fashion tour. I so muchlove their culture.

I scroll through the company’s group chat.

Yesterday, the meeting was held but, I wasn’t present in that meeting. I am so dead, Ferd will kill me.

I quickly picked up my bag and rushed out

. I waved at an incoming cab, the driver was on speed, he drove past me and before hitting the brake.

He whined down the window.

I leaned forward.

“Hathaway F&Fcompany please”.

“You know the price”.

He replied and opened the car door.

“Sure, thanks”

I went in the car and shut the door , he speed off.

I got to the company, coincidentally at same time Mr Bruno came down from his car. I immediately played blind avoiding any means of eye contact.

His suitcase and others were collected by his assistant, his bodyguard followed him till the entrance of the company.

I sighed, paid the cab driver.

I waited for few minutes before going in to the company.

“Beauty!”

Someone screamed my name

I turned and found Jessi, she was frowning like an unsatisfied housewife.

She walked towards me like an angry boss

“You owe me an explanation, and girl you are in trouble, a huge one”.

She took me by the hand, we walked to my post.

“Now tell me what’s up with you, yesterday I was asking you a question you hung up, I tried calling you back but you blocked my line”.

Beauty chuckled akwardly.

“Are we still going today?”

“Answer my question first!”

She snapped.

“I promise it’s nothing, if there’s anything else I will let you know trust me”.

I replied.

“You are really strange these days Beauty”.

She sighed.

Just then Bruno walked towards us, I feel bothered, is he coming over to take to me, I have a lot to say to him too.

Should I?

There’s no need to apologize, he said we should act like it never happened, apologizing will make me look desperate.

“Jessi”.

Jessi and I turned to him.

“Yes…. Bruno?”

She gasped in surprise.

“Can you help me out with some stuff please”.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

He tilted his head and smiled.

Did he just smiled at her?

“OMG how cute…how can I say no to that face.. of yours”

She panicked creating a scene, then shook me in excitement.

“He is so handsome, Beauty!”

I faked a smile.

She finally calmed down and replied.

“Ofcourse Bruno, anything you want”.

“Thanks”

He replied, and left pretending I was invisible.

Not like I care!

Not like he is doing that to make me feel bad.

I am not even with the stress, a man like Bruno doing such to get at me, it’s downgrading.

Jessi cuts into my thoughts.

“That’s odd, he never ask anyone for help except maybe you, I will take my chances, oh my goodness he is so hot even his requests sounds so romantic, I wonder if he will ask me to do some naughty things too”.

She winked at me.

“Goodluck, he is not really my type, what’s so special about him anyway, why you all crazy for him, I am over him, he is just a pretty face”.

“And a great height”.

Jessi contributed.

I rolled my eyes,”A great height”.

“A perfect body?”

“A perfect body”.

“And a green flag?”

“I don’t see any green”.

I pouted.

“Really?”she asked surprised.

“Ye… ah..”

I scratched my ear, nervously.

“Oh I get it”.

She chuckled.

“What?”

I snapped angrily.

“Nothing … bae … nothing”

She glanced at me and shook her head, then left for Bruno’s office.

I sat down , sighed deeply.

“Why am I jealous that he asked Jessi for help…I am giving myself false hope, I tell you Beauty you will regret this”.

I rested my head on my desk, my heart so heavy I feel like crying out loud for nothing.

“Everyone parked right?”Fred’s assistant, May asked, a baggage in her hand.

“Let’s go”.

The head of each department chorused

Three lucky newbies, best looking though, were selected to join the tour

Heading to enter our company’s jet.

We arrived at the place.

I looked at Bruno, he was taking pictures with the staffs, and fan girls.

I tried not to give him so much attention.

Why is my mind occupied with him, he never for once looked my way, I am the only in this delusional state.

**BRUNO’S POV**

Gratefully I was done with the pictures, finally out of the reach of those hungry girls, eating me up with their eyes. I should have said no but it takes alot of energy to turn down requests.

Beauty…

I am trying hard to let go, but still she is not helping.

Why does she have to look good in every day.

I could remember the day of the interview, I asked father to employ her. I am still confused on how none of the directors saw potential in her, both intellectually and physically.

She is so beautiful and sexy it kept messing up with my mind, and yesterday.. I made a move..

After the rejection I thought I would hate her…but instead.. I wanted her even more.

I got into the jet, the only seat that’s free was the one beside Beauty’s!
