I called Becky immediately I got home to tell her about the good news. She picked up immediately on the first ring.

"Heyyyyyy"I said immediately letting her know how happy I was.

"Slow down ,look who's in a good mood , what's going on ?" Becky replied with a bit of laughter in her voice.

"I got a really cool contract with the Johnson's Empire......."I explained how the contract and meeting went.

"What ?!!! That's awesome I'm coming over we are going out to celebrate, dress up babe."she squealed for Joy.

"And do you know what this means ? We get to be workmates !" Becky said afterwards but her words put me in confusion.

"What do you mean ?"I asked .

"Don't you remember last weekend when I told you about Johnson's Empire.....Drake Johnson.....hello ???"then I was put into a state of realization that this was the same company Becky worked with which means her cold and arrogant boss would be my boss now.

How could I have forgotten this ,well he can't be bad as Becky says, she exaggerates most times.

"Ohh I'm so sorry , I forgot , wow so I get to see your fine boss every day"I said with laughter.

"You old woman , and that makes our boss now, so get ready I'm coming over to take you out."She said all in one breath then hanging up.

I rushed to my bathroom, increased the music that was playing in my room using my Bluetooth speaker. I danced and sang for joy in the bathroom making me slip severally.

I decided to wear a black sleeveless jumpsuit with some sandals and let my hair loose. Immediately I came out of my apartment, I saw Becky waiting in her car.

We were in a bar that had so many disco light , the people were so many, drinking and having small talks around the corner with whoever they came with. Becky and I took seats at the drinks counter in front of the bar tender.

"I'd like 6 shot of tequila, bring apple juice for the other lady, she's too weak"Becky said giving me a crazy look.

"Don't judge me Becky, I don't like alcohol and it's going to stay that way"I said in my defense. Since when I tasted alcohol for the first time when I turned 18,I never really liked it so I refrained from it.

"Whatever let's have our drinks"she said handing me my own cup while she took her shots one after the other without stopping.

"Slow down, you better don't get drunk because I ain't driving you home"I said getting up from my seat stretching my hands to pull her up.

"Come on let's go dance!"I said pulling her up with one of her hands in mine while she wiped off the drops of tequila on her lips.

We danced crazily and waved our hair every which way in the air while we held each other dancing awkwardly. I was exhausted from dancing so I decided to go take a sit back at where we previously sat while Becky kept on dancing away.

Then a hand tapped me on my shoulders. I turned to see who it was, those jawlines, curly hair and built figure. Where have I seen this man, he looked so familiar.

"Hey I'm Drake Johnson, what's your name ?"His words clicked in my brain. I can't believe I'm talking to my future boss in a bar. I didn't want to tell him I'd be a new worker at his company so I pretended like I didn't know who he was.

"Oh hi, I'm Skai"I said shyly while he took a seat by my side.

"Wow nice name for a nice looking lady, are you seriously drinking that ?"He asked looking at my apple drink with an amused face.

"Yes , my body can't tolerate alcohol"I said feeling embarrassed.

"Oh that's nice, well I could drink 10 shots of tequila if I wanted to but I turn my drinking down a notch when I'm in a bar or when I'm with a pretty lady like you."His words made me flatter. A man as fine as he is calling me pretty.

I don't know what's going on in my head but I found myself feeling shy and nervous around him but why is that happening. I shook the thoughts out of my mind.

"You say you could take 10 shots of tequila uhn, well I believe what I see"I said while smirking.

"Oh are you challenging me? It's on !"He said clenching his hands and hitting it on the table which revealed his well structured hands with some nice traces of veins.

He asked the bar tender to bring 10 tequila shots while he let his first 2 buttons loose revealing a nice structure of his upper body. Mehn what is this guy doing to me.

"Now watch me but you'd do something for me in return."He said lifting up one of the shots to his mouth, then within some seconds he emptied all shots into his mouth gulping all without squeezing his face or feeling the effect of the hot tequila.

"Wow, you drank all that within a really short time"I said surprised at his good control of alcohol.

"Yeah now you owe me a date"He said turning himself on his seat to face me with his elbow on the counter.

I laughed because I was definitely going to say no because he was going to be my boss and I just met him but a drive was pushing me to say yes.

"Okay then "I said wondering where those words came from. At least I made a deal and it was my turn to fulfill my part of the deal.

"Fine, we'd be seeing next week Friday night"He said with a huge smile.

"But why that far ?"I asked wondering why he put the date so far.

"I'm a really busy man , Fridays are my free days."He said while pulling out his phone.

"Can I get your number ?"He asked giving me the phone. I didn't know what shocked me more if it was his question or the highly sophisticated phone he was putting in front of me.

"Sure"I said dialing my number on the dial pad.

"Thanks , I'd give you a call when I get home. I gotta run now, bye beautiful Skai"He said while getting up from his seat to leave the bar.

Immediately he was out of sight, Becky rushed to where I was with a shocked look with her hands on her cheeks.

"Did Drake just fix a date with you ?"She asked settling in the seat where he had sat.

"Yeah I guess so "I said with a smile.

"Wow, I guess he doesn't know you're going be his workmate soon"she said grabbing her purse from the countertop.

"Yeah he doesn't"I said getting up from my seat.

"Well let's see what happens and I'm so jealous right now, common let's go home it's getting crazy in here".

I was seated in the waiting room in the Johnson's Empire building waiting for the lady who would take me over to the boss's office who was obviously Drake.

In the meantime I was admiring the complex designs and structure inside the building with so many glass walls.

"Hello Miss Skai , Mr Johnson is ready for you"I nodded following the lady closely.

We used the elevator to move up to the last floor. Once the elevator opened up we walked straight down the aisle of offices.

We stopped in front of a huge wooden door which no doubt led to Drake's office.

"You can go in now."The lady said before walking away.

I adjusted my clothes and hair, I walked into the office.

There he was, seated on his executive chair with his face frowning down at some files on his desk.

"Good morning Drake Johnson "I said with a wide smile hoping he'd remember me from last night.

"It's Mr Drake Johnson to you"He said giving me a nasty look. Wasn't this the same charming guy from last night.

"Anyway I see you are the auditor from the Orchard industries, well you'd start off with some high scale of finances we are having trouble sorting."He said handing some files to me.

"You don't remember me from last night do you ?" I asked wondering why he was acting so cold.

"Miss Hart, I've never see you before and this is not a friendly meeting so get to work and you'd be working in my office right over there "He said coldly pointing to a small table at the corner of his office.

"Why can't I get my own office"I asked offended by his speech.

"Because you are dealing with my company's money and I'd like to know how my money is being handled at a close range."He said all in one breath while I took the files from his hand.

Is this guy joking with me ? Is he really going to act like he doesn't know me, maybe he didn't want to hangout with me knowing I'm going to be his workmate.

I took the files and headed to my desk in his office wondering if he had mental issues or amnesia before he said something that quenched my suspicions.

"And don't think I'd be taking you out on Friday night "he said harshly looking down at his files before giving me a death glare.

Oh wow.
