Love isn’t a priority to
me. To me love is just a significant feeling. When everybody struggled to get
love, I would think they are crazy. I always wonder if love is that important
in our lives. Well, that was before I met him…….
Waking up in a cold chilly morning. The sky
is darkened and it looks like it is threatening to rain. As usual, I would just
stretch myself and then get up from the bed lazily. “ It’s another day with the
same routine,” I said to myself. I made my bed and grabbed my towel and walked
towards the bathroom. As the bone chilling water spread on my back, I instantly
wake from my sleepily daydream. I realized today is the day. The day I got a
new boss in my office. As I’m in charge of his welcoming ceremony, I quickly
grabbed my towel and got dress as fast as I could.
Hurrying down the stairs while doing a short
checklist to make sure I looked my best. I went to the kitchen and grabbed
myself a sandwich that was last night’s leftover and go into the car. “ That
new boss would kill me if I ruined his ceremony.” I panicked. I turned my eyes
towards the digital clock on the side of the wheel and realized that I still
have an hour to spare. So, I drive slowly instead.
Reaching the entrance of the building I
worked in, there were only a few have arrived. Checking everything that’s for
the ceremony and I’m satisfied. Then my stomach grumbles so I pampered my
stomach with some light snack at the nearby cafeteria.
Out of nowhere, a guy just sat in front of me
and stared at me. I thought it was weird because I have never seen him before.
He was smiling at me. Didn’t know what else to do, I just simply smile back and
continue my light snack. I felt discomfort so I just get up and walk away.
Strangely that man kept on following me.
“ What do you want?” I blurted out of
impatience.
“Is that how you welcome your new boss?” He
asked with that smile from before.
Realizing that, I quickly apologized. At that
moment, I wish the floor would open up and swallow me in. Seeing my face turn
as red as a tomato, he laughed out loud. “What kind of boss is this?” I asked
myself. Then he stares at me again but this time in a serious face. Then I saw
his face has the most handsome feature with his hazel nut eyes, I was stunned.
Then the ceremony starts and everybody had
arrived. When it’s time for the speech, that guy gave me a shock. He spoke so
confidently and fluently. I hardly recognize the guy from the cafeteria. “Well,
he is my boss after all.” I muttered to myself. After that day, everything went
back to the usual office routine.
Ever since Jeremy came as the boss of this
company, our profits had increased tremendously. The most unbelievable thing is
that our company has finally ranked as the top 50 in the world. Being his usual
self, he would come and watch me do my work.
As time passes, I soon have feelings for him.
I mean who wouldn’t. He’s rich, intelligent and has a great sense of humor.
Likewise, he had feelings for me too. So, he decided that we should get
together and I totally agreed.
After six months, we decided to get married
even though we just met, we knew that we are made for each other. But
unfortunately everything went crazy. On the day before our marriage, he decided
to take me for a luxurious dinner on a ship. I was so happy and figured that I
was the luckiest girl around. As we were enjoying our moment, then out of the
blue, a gunshot was fired. Everyone went horrified and stayed low. We did the
same. Then I saw at the counter, a man was holding a gun that is threatening a
young girl. He wanted money, jewelries and watches. He asked someone to collect
them and put them in a bag.
Jeremy stood up as he refused to give away
just like that and ran crashing to the man when he wasn’t looking. The girl was
freed from the man and quickly ran to her boyfriend. I watch horrifyingly as
Jeremy fought with the man while everybody ran for their lives. Then, a gunshot
was fired again. Jeremy had killed the man by accident. I was glad that he is
still alive so I ran for his arm. The man lying on the pool of blood, grabbed
the gun and fire before he sleeps for eternity. The bullet hit Jeremy right at
the heart. My world shattered into pieces as Jeremy slowly closes his eyes.
Now, it has past two years. I would be lost
in my own world most of the time. The young girl would always thank me and
offer some helped as she felt bad. But I couldn’t be bothered. I loved him so
much and I still do. The incident is still vivid in my mind and it made me
realize the importance of love in our lives.
