MY OFFICE CRUSH

A little background about me.

I work for this multi-national company like that, as an intern, I just finished serving a while back and I got hired, the pay was good for someone just starting in the industry, plus I get to travel for training.

I had a car as a gift from my parents, and a cool 2 bedroom apartment in a chill part of town.

Now back to my story.

6 months into my internship they hired this new girl, lemme nor even lie I used to think about her when I want to ehm... let’s not get carried away
Even my bosses had declared interest in her, so as someone that values his job I decided to avoid her like a plague. Some months later during usual Friday meeting our supervisor announced that we had a new product...
we would like to introduce to oil companies and as such we would need to come up with a sales pitch by the following Friday, that means I get to slave through the weekend. I just sighed within myself.
I dosed off after the announcement, I only woke up when people started moving. As I got back to cubicle,my boss calls me “Ugo I need you to come up with something for this by cob (close of business) Monday” as if I didn’t already know,
“yes sir” I humbly replied and left his office, ‘well this is going to be a long weekend’ I said to myself as I walked back my cubicle, as I sat on my chair ,I knew I had to Impress because my internship review was coming up soon. I powered on my system and went to work.
Lucky for me I was part of the team that worked on the product so I had some notes with and that data, I pulled up a spreadsheet and did a side by side comparison of the existing and new products I was in my zone because my headphones were on and my Aftobeat playlist was fire
I was typing away when someone tapped me, out of shock, I shook and fell of my chair, I got up and dusted myself, “I’m so sorry I startled you” she said, I was just muted staring at her, she stretched her hand and said “I’m Cynthia”.
Still starring at her, like the girl of my dreams was talking to me, like me, someone should please wake me up, when she extended her hand and I took her smooth soft palm into my hand and shook it, the electric shock that ran through my body convinced me I wasn’t dreaming.
“I’m Ugo” I finally murmured, “hi Ugo, do you mind if I sit” she said, “ yeah, yeah sure” I replied as I offered her my chair and went to the next cubicle to pull another chair, “do you really work this late?” She asked.
“Late it not that l...” I cut myself short as starred into my watch “past 8, damn, I didn’t even know it was that late” I continued, “I was asked to join up with your department to get the sales pitch ready but it looks like you’ve got it handled” she said looking at my system”
My office crush is finally talking to me I’m definitely not letting this opportunity pass, “I would appreciate a second pair of eyes, you know what they say about 2 heads” I said, “well do you still want to work now or we could meet tomorrow” she said.
Now the grumbling in my stomach was really loud “why don’t work on this tomorrow am really starving” I said, “ok, I could tell, because the rumbling from your stomach can be heard from space, I guess I’ll be seeing you tomorrow, what time” she said as she got up to leave.
“I guess you must be hungry too I know a great place not far from here” I said, she sat back “I’ll take you up on that offer it’s late to start cooking anyways” she said, “ just give me a minute let me save this and pack up” I said she nodded her reply and brought out her phone.
