And it’s rings not rinns
10:30 AM.
“What did she see in you?” A female voice asked, Jhonia ignored the question and continued going through her work file, when a hand patted her shoulder immediately she became irritated by it. She turned around in her chair looking at Emmari.
“Emmari right? Right, don’t ever touch me again or else.” Jhonia stated as she stood up removing her jacket and threw it in the small bin next to her chair. One of the female workers saw when Jhonia binned the jacket her mouth dropped open with surprise.
“Or else what?” Emmari asks like a badass, she thinks she is.
“If I were you, I wouldn’t ask? If someone throws away such an expensive jacket because you touch it, there is a reason for it and why are you bothering her don’t you have work to do?” The female who witnessed the jacket being binned by its owner, asked? Then said to Emmari in the following she asked?
“Is she some kind of rich kid, did your family buy into this job Ms. Jhonia?” Emmari said, wondering if Jhonia is rich, and proceeded to ask.
“No, she’s not like you Emmari. She was chosen by Jaeminy or did you forget who showed her around and who brought her here? Also, if I were you I wouldn’t make trouble for others when you couldn’t get the job done, which is when? Two years ago, Jaeminy took sick and you mess things up and she had to beg for you to stay. Should I continue?” Kuwain said to her, he then asked as he reminded her who sent Jhonia to the company. After saying that to her, he began jogging her memory and questioned her. Emmari left and went to her side of which Jhonia desk is.
“Ms. Jhonia, are you really throwing the jacket?” The female asked after addressing her.
“Yes, I don’t want it anymore.” Jhonia responds to the female.
“My name is Daeviann, also about the jacket. It’s a 7 thousand dollar jacket, are you really going to bin it?” Daeviann asked her, and Jhonia nodded but her attention quickly went to Kuwain who suddenly appeared as she was having issues with an employee almost as if he’s watching her.
“Yes, but why did you appear out of nowhere Mr. Kuwain?” Jhonia asked Kuwain, who stood looking at her as he remembered the message he received on his phone…Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“I was on my way to Mr. Knight actually, he”
“He is yet to return, you wait until his return.” Jhonia cuts off Kuwain and says,
“Hmm, Kuwain is my first, not my last name, you don’t need to address me… Wait… Did he tell me or anyone who came looking for him, to say he is out?” Kuwain said to Jhonia as he was getting ready to leave but he knew of his somewhat friend habits. He turns back to Jhonia and ask her.
“Is that something he would do?” Jhonia asked, looking at Kuwain… The door open and a female leave Kyhe office. Jhonia slapped her hands together.
“Ah, he’s free to see you now. Mr. Kuwain, I will get used to it, don’t worry.” Jhonia said with a lip smile, Kuwain looked at her like he was trying to recognise her.
“Ah, quite the secretary you are Ms. Smith, very quite, Secretary Smith.” Kuwain said pointing back at her as he walked off and up the stairs as he was about to pass the female, he stopped.
“Can’t you dress like an office lady instead of a whore?” Kuwain asked the female?
“What?” She asked him angrily?
“Look around.” Kuwain said and passed her completely. She looked down at the employees looking up at her, they then continued back their work and Jhonia took her seat.
“Ms. Jhonia.” Daeviann called for her attention… Jhonia turned to see her smiling at her.
“What?” Jhonia looked at her for a moment before asking her..
“What is it?” She then asked her.
“I want the jacket! Why; It’s so expensive, please give it to me, why; Because I want it and when I get paid and finish paying bills that jacket is worth twice what I have left.” Daeviann softly explained asking and answering her questions and answering herself..
“Okay.” Jhonia said looking back at the computer screen, Daeviann picked the jacket and began slipping away.
“Hey, stop there!” Jhonia said to her, Daeviann stopped in panic.
“Come here!” Jhonia called her back, Daeviann slowly returned to Jhonia’s desk!
“See this? I am going to email it to you and I want you to print it twice and give it to me before I leave the office.” Jhonia asked and said, explaining what she wants her to do. She then realized Daeviann was still leaning towards her and waiting.
“Daeviann, that will be all!” She said to her.
“Oh okay, ah. Ms. Jhonia do you remember the date you purchase the jacket and”
“Yes, I will give it to you tomorrow now, go do what I ask of you please and thank you.” Jhonia cut her off and said, knowing she was asking for the receipt of the purchase for the jacket! Kuwain finally left Kyhe office and stood above the steps looking at Jhonia when his phone rings he picked it from his pocket and look it.
“Ask her out for lunch and buy her chicken rinns.” The message quoted with an address link!
“Who?” Kuwain replied by asking?
“Pick two females. Good luck!” The messenger replied, he tried replying but the message he sent wasn’t going out!
“Shit! He blocked me again, but the two, with whom do I choose and the fact that I have to fulfill it to hear from him again or he will pick someone else.” Kuwain said, watching everyone work! … After some time Daeviann gave Jhonia two separate files, and immediately he decided to choose them.
“These two fight with Emmari earlier and then this, my only question is which is he or she protecting?” Kuwain said to himself looking down at them, he then questioned before he began walking down the stairs.
“Daeviann, come here… Hey Ms. Jhonia there is a restaurant thirty minutes from the company that has the best chicken rinns, Daeviann do you wants to join Ms. Jhonia and I for lunch? I want to treat her to lunch because we will spend a lot of time together.”
Kuwain called over Daeviann as she came, he began to explain to her and then asked her. Then give her a reason for her to accept his offer.
“No, sorry I’m busy.” Jhonia responds to him asking her to lunch.
“I’m just trying to be friendly.” Kuwain said and Jhonia’s mind rushed back to the man in the car, “I’m Just trying to be friendly.” Then I rushed to Kyhe. “I’m trying to be friendly.” Jhonia took a deep breath.
“Why is everyone using the phrase, “I’m just trying to be friendly.” Why?”
Jhonia said loudly asking why, Her voice sounded angry.
“Sorry.” Kuwain said, then quickly texts Kyhe to come and invite Jhonia to lunch with him. Soon after Kyhe came out from his office, Kuwain walked away taking Daeviann with him.
“Hey friend, where are you going with my employee?” Kyhe asked? Putting on his coat!
“To get Chicken Rinns, Mr. Knight.” Daeviann said suddenly, Jhonia mind rush back to a moment… A moment she shares with her parents her mom using chicken to make rings and fry them, tears peaks her when her phone rings she looks at it. “Nearce”
“Ms. Smith, want to join us for lunch?” Kyhe asked her with a smile. Jhonia got up and took her coat.
“Mr. Kuwain asked first, Mr. Kuwain, I recalled my no and changed it. Let’s go. And it’s rings not rinns.” Jhonia said to Kyhe, she then tells Kuwain to change her and tell them its rings not rinns, she began walking over to him and Daeviann.
“Sorry, most have forgot because of that. I’m buying.” Kuwain said and Jhonia nodded together as they all went for lunch.
