Chapter 2~ All Actions have Consequences

Shyla's POV:

Although I somehow managed to reach the office pretty early, I was still running late because of the encounter with the stupid fellow. I rushed towards the reception desk and asked where my interview was to be held to which she told me to enter the 5th room on the 20th floor. I ran towards the elevator which was just about to close and yelled "Please wait!", hoping the person inside would hear me. And hear me they did!

Guess who was the one that stopped the elevator? The guy from before...! You know the handsome guy with the beautiful car who somehow managed to look even more handsome now for some reason... What the heck am I even thinking?!!! This guy makes me crazy.

Anyways, while I was busy thinking shit as usual, he looked straight into my eyes and said, "Oh it's you, Miss Car thief! Never expected to meet you again. Anyway, I'm sure you wouldn't wanna share the elevator with a 'judgemental asshole' like me so you'd rather take the stairs. Ciao". And he fucking closed the elevator to my face!!! Can you believe it?! Ugh, I hate this guy!

And what the hell is wrong with this company?! Such a rich and huge company yet they can't afford to have two elevators??? "Ahhh **** my life", I said as I climbed the stairs.

It took me a good 15-20 minutes to reach the 20th floor and by the time I reached there, I was out of breath so I had to wait for a while to catch my breath. Anyway I was late because of that idiot and now I'm as late as can be! It's definitely one of my not-so-good days because how else can I manage to be late by a whole half hour even when I actually left home early!!

After getting a hold of myself, I finally entered the 5th room at exactly 11:30 am. As soon as I entered, I noticed that the whole room was empty with just one person (I'm assuming the interviewer) sitting on the chair turned towards the window, with his back facing me.

"Excuse me, I had an interview at 11. I'm extremely sorry for being late! I'm usually not this irresponsible, it's just because of the traffic and this stupid person I kept crossing paths with. You know what, he actually works here and can confirm that I was here by 10:30! Could you please give me one last chance? I swear I'll do my best." I kept blabbering uncontrollably out of anxiety as I wanted this job really badly!

To this the person behind the chair said, "Excuses won't get you anywhere."

I felt really disheartened hearing those words and was just about to tear up when he continued, "If only you would've been this sweet in the streets earlier this morning, I would've considered your request". I was confused for a minute but soon realised, it was him! Mr. Ego pants!! I can't believe I'd bump into this certified idiot once again and turns out he's the one who was supposed to take my freakin' interview!!! Remember me telling you that it's a 'not-so-good' day? I've changed my mind. It's a TERRIBLE day!!! "Why, God, why?!", I whispered to myself.

I think he heard it and as a reply said, "Don't blame God for your own mistakes". Ugh this arrogant pig!! I didn't respond to his stupid remark, obviously! Now that I know there's nothing I can do about it I decided to just give up and leave already. As I was walking out the door, I heard him say, "Remember to close the door behind you". Why is this guy so intolerable?! Also, what exactly is he trying to do, make me feel inferior or something?! And why the heck should I listen to this guy anyway, it's not like I'm getting this job anymore! So I made sure to leave the door open as I left, just to irritate him. After all that he has done, I just wanted to get even with him, I guess.

I left the building feeling hopeless as my dreams were shattered right in front of my eyes. Not all dreams come true, I guess... At least I know mine won't come true!

But the only good thing about this whole incident is that at least I wouldn't have to work in the same office as that idiot anymore. I don't wanna see his face ever again and hope to God I never bump into him EVER AGAIN!!! I swear to God I'm gonna murder him if he shows that stupid little face of his to me ever again!

Evan's POV:

I had a meeting at 11 am this morning, so I left home for office in my black Bugatti. I was right in front of the office when a girl bumped into my car out of nowhere! She was facing the opposite direction so I wasn't able to see her face clearly. I was just about to yell at her to get the **** out of my way, when I saw her face for the first time...

Belonging to a rich and powerful family, I've been to numerous elite parties and have seen loads of beautiful faces but none of them even remotely matched the beauty of this girl in front of me. Her big brown almond-shaped eyes were the first to grab my attention, then I moved on to her cute little nose and her plump, pink lips that I wanted to kiss so badly...! Her rosy, white skin was glowing in the sun with bangs that framed her face so well. As she started walking towards me, I noticed her petite frame and short hair that looked perfect on her (P.S. I honestly don't understand the hype for long hair on a girl, short hair looks real cute in my opinion)!

While I was lost in admiring her beauty, I saw her knock on my window. I rolled down the window and was waiting to hear her sweet voice but she just stood there without uttering a word which made me anxious. She looked lost, to be honest, so in order to grab her attention I snapped my fingers in front of her eyes and said, "Do you have a problem?".

She remained quiet for a minute as if she was thinking of what to say and then replied, "Of course I have a problem. You almost hit me with this beautiful car of yours..." Then after a brief pause continued, "You owe me an apology, mister". I almost couldn't contain my amazement and ended up smirking a little bit, which I hope she didn't notice! Her cuteness caught me off guard! She looked so cute when annoyed that I couldn't help but annoy her even more.

So to irritate her I said, "You're the one who owes me an apology".

I could tell that she was pissed off at this. With a confused expression she said, "Excuse me?". Can't believe she looks even cuter when confused! That made me curious to see how she looked when she got angry though... So, I thought of the worst thing to say which would definitely make her angry enough to punch me right on my face!

I said, "You were the one walking like a blind person. You deliberately came in front of my car so you could get some money off of me. I know your type very well". Okay, okay I'm not very proud of my words but I just wanted to get a reaction out of her!

And boy did I get a reaction or what! Her cheeks were flushed due to anger and turned a beautiful shade of pink. With brows knitted together, she said, "What the hell do you mean by 'my type'?! It's literally been 5 minutes since we met and you already know me well enough to categorise me into a certain type...? You're such a judgmental asshole! Keep your stupid apology to yourself, I don't want it anymore. And you know what, you belong to the narcissistic, so full of shit category by the way!"

She stormed out of there as soon as she finished her sentence and did not even wait to see my reaction! This outburst of hers reassured me that she's definitely not that kinda girl. But I lowkey feel bad for saying those rude things to her, after all I have fallen for her...
