Chapter 3 Brilliant sketch

CHAPTER 3

ANGELO'S POV

"What are you exactly?" I muttered out in shock and pushed her away then sat up.

"You look scared, Angelo you always do this every night so I thought I should try it as well" Senorita said calmly.

"You used to be a bird but how come you learnt to be this spoilt " I uttered out seriously and she stood up from the bed.

"I'm sorry Angelo, I didn't mean to offend you. I thought been like this makes you happy" She said remorsefully.

"What do you know about me? You've only been here today and here you are trying to seduce me. If you're that eager to learn then you should learn better things and for your information I don't do little girls" I shouted.

"I'm sorry but what's the meaning of seduce?" She asked innocently and I ruffled my hair in frustration.

"Put on your clothes and don't repeat anything like this again. You're now a human, you should have some self respect and dignity, you shouldn't throw yourself at guys easily and you shouldn't practice everything you see" I explained and she nodded.

"Looks like what I just did now was bad?" She asked.

"Yes, very bad. You can only do this with someone you love and have accepted wholeheartedly, do you understand?" I said and she nodded.

"Go to sleep" She said slowly and went out of the room

She's just like a kid, she practices what she sees and hears. I thought and a smile appeared on my lips.

"What am I thinking? I have to send her out today but I can't do that, it's going to snow heavily today and why am I looking for excuses to keep her here"

"That's because I have a conscience. Go to sleep" I murmured and lay down.

EARLY MORNING

I woke up, freshened up and head out of my bedroom. Senorita wasn't there.

"Where's she? Have she transformed back into bird and go back home but she said she doesn't have a home" I gasped out not knowing what to do.

"Senorita! Senorita!" I called out as I went into the kitchen and came out.

"Senorita" I called again and noticed a shadow at the balcony.

She was squatting at the balcony with her face on her knees.

"Senorita!" I called as I walked to the balcony and she looked at me with a sad face.

"Angelo are you going out?" She asked.

"Yes I'm going to work but what's with your face expression? I can't take you to work with me so you have to stay home and it's snowing heavily outside so you can't go out" I instructed and she stood up.

"I'm leaving, I can't stay in your house" She muttered and I blinked for a second.

"What did you just say?" I asked trying to get her statement.

"I said I'm leaving, I can't stay in your house" She repeated.

"Senorita you said you have no family and how are you supposed to survive out there? You're no longer living the life of a bird, you're now a young girl who needs to take care of herself and you can't do that if you sleep in the streets. Life out there is hard, if you think you're sponging off from me then don't feel that way, you've only been here for a day and I can't just let you out on the streets. I will think of something so stay put and don't leave the house when I'm gone" I instructed and she blinked repeatedly in a cute manner.

She has only been a human for a day and she already knows what it feels like to be sponging off someone. I can't believe she's thinking of leaving. I thought looking at her.

"You shouldn't be here, it's freezing. Go inside, I left some long pants for you on the couch. Put it on after freshening up and I place an order of breakfast when I get downstairs so don't go out, you might loss your way" I pouted and she chuckled.

"There's no way I can get lost, I have a very strong sense of direction and I'm very smart. Angelo do you have any books that tells about how one should live" She asked with a smile.

"I have so many books but do you know how to read?" I asked curiously.

"I learnt how to read from the kids downstairs whenever they came back from school, I fly to their window" She said smiling as we went inside.

"Okay well you can read those under the table, they're also educative" I said and she smirked.

"I've read them already, they're books talking about how engines work and their faults" She said swiftly and I smiled.

"Impressive, never knew birds got smart brains. If you want more, you can through my bookshelf. I'm off to work" I said and walked to the door.

"I will behave" She giggled and I went out.

"She will be fine right?" I gasped out before entering the elevator.

AUTHOR'S POV

"Anthony you have no idea, what it means for a personality like myself to be belittled by Angelo. I see no reason why you always try to reason with him, what is he to this company anyways" Drake shouted and Anthony stood up from his office chair.

"Drake you know so well that Angelo is an important person in this company. He's a brain box in this field, I cover up for him because he always makes up for his mistakes Everytime he does one. Angelo is my friend and I will continue supporting him and about his presentation" Anthony said seriously.

"About his presentation, his presentation was a complete mess. All the vital information we need for this new project aren't there. What kind of brain box can't even figure that out, you're his supervisor so do something about this. I really hate it when people slack off" Drake yelled.

"Drake what's with your tone, don't forget I'm still your supervisor. This is the first time Angelo is making a mistake like this so what's with the tone" Anthony fired and Drake glared at him.

"I'm sounding this way because I'm also involved in this new project. Angelo and myself are involved in this new invention and I won't let him make me a loser or lose this project so talk to him before I meet the director myself" Drake said seriously and walked out of his office, Angelo was about entering the office.

"You can just say all those things to my face. You didn't have to lash it all out on Anthony, after all he's also doing his job" Angelo said rudely.

"I wouldn't have spoken to him in that manner if you didn't forget the reason why you are here. Go fix that mess before talking to me" Drake said coldly and brushed Angelo's shoulders.

So full of himself. Drake hissed and went into his office.

Angelo went into Anthony's office and the look on Anthony's face was disappointment, it was written boldly on his face that he was disappointed in Angelo.

"Anthony, it seems like something went wrong with my presentation" Angelo uttered in a low tone and Anthony sat down.

"Angelo how can you miss such huge details about the new project? Drake was looking for ways to tell out on you and he gave him the opportunity to do so" Anthony said seriously.

"I will fix this so there's nothing for you to worry about. I can fix this, I just gave to find what the real problem is about the engines" Angelo assured.

"I will trust you on that and no hard feelings, I'm just trying to protect our position in this company" Anthony said and Angelo smiled.

"Of course bro, I will get going now" Angelo gasped and went out of the office.

Tony didn't look good, I really have to think of why the engines failed after they applied my ideas. Angelo thought and went into his office.

"Why I can't I pick out the faults, this is the first time I'm having an issue like this" Angelo gasped out frustratedly after going through his sketch work.

His female colleagues kept knocking at his office door but he didn't let anyone in.

SENORITA POV

It was evening already. I stood up from I was sitting after reading books but a huge paper fell out from one of the books.

"What's this?" I uttered out and took a look at the paper. It was a sketch of a car engine.

"This looks fun" I gasped out with a smile and I studied the sketch.

"Why does it feel like the engines are missing out something" I uttered out actually confused.

According to all the engineering books I've read, something's really missing. I thought and the door cracked open.

"Angelo is back" I muttered out with a wide smile and I ran to the door.

"Welcome back Angelo" I greeted and helped him with his briefcase and the shopping bags in his hands.

"You didn't leave just like I instructed. Good girl" Angelo gasped in a low tone after changing into his house slippers.

"Angelo you sound down, is everything okay" I asked curiously and his eyes were fixed on the table.

"Senorita don't tell me you read all these? I actually thought I was a genius" He said in surprise.

"I read everything and again I noticed there was something wrong with this sketch" I uttered as I kept the bags on the sofa then got the sketch paper.

"You also think there's something wrong right" He said tiredly and widened his eyes in shock.

"But how did you know about that? Did you lie to me about been a bird? Senorita what are you exactly" Angelo asked again looking at me.
