Chapter 6 This kind of Embarrassment called scarlet

Mr Dylan's guards ushered me to a black Audi Cabriolet. My watch is incorrect but I know I'm late. I take a few breaths trying to regulate my body's heartbeats as I have been running down the stairs all this while.

The car is a convertible and honestly, I haven't entered this kind of car in my life. I spot Mr Dylan in the back seat and my heartbeat increased thinking of what excuse I would give when I get to him. And he was indeed waiting. He leaned his elbow on the car door with his head leaning on that same arm. His eyes was slightly closed and his other free hand was gently tapping the empty seat beside him.

Jeez, I kept my boss waiting!. And he was drop dead handsome.

I'm so sorry sir.. I used the stairs although I started coming down very early, I didn't know I'll be this late.

Dylan turned sharply to look at me as he was sitting on the right side of the car . He looked at me as if I was talking foul. Yeah, why not, who would use the stairs to come down from a 55 floor Skyscraper. I should have just formed another excuse.

Get in...He seems less bothered about my excuses in quote. I'm sure he must have been saying in his mind ' If you really wanted to lie next time, Miss Steele, you shouldn't use such self exposing excuse'

Well, did he just tell me to get in.. How?

Me?, I pointed at myself.Justin was sitting at the driver's seat and he seemed to be warning me of my excessive pretence. It was not pretence though.

I'm not sure how...

I stood there wondering how to get into the car. I've never entered this kind of car in my life. I've only seen it in action films and Thrillers where for instance two people plan to rob a super Mart and when one of them caters away with the groceries in the shop and many people are after him, then the other one, driving in a car would signal the running thief to jump in and he jumps and they drive off leaving a trail of cursing mob. So obviously, jumping in was the way to get into this convertible but I can't imagine Mr Dylan jumping into the car... What then should I do..

I saw that Mr Dylan's men wanted to help me but their Master clicked his tongue obviously signalling them that they shouldn't help.

I'm getting very panicky and confused on what to do. I try climbing in but I feel it's not right.

I see Justin puffing air in his mouth obviously suppressing his laughter and I'm so embarrassed that I begin to cry.

Help me please...

I bite my lips trying in a vain attempt to conceal my tears. I'm the very emotional type especially when I'm too overexcited about something. When I'm very happy, sad, confused, I just can't help crying as a reaction to feelings and now the d*mn tears begin to flow because I'm very embarrassed.

Go help her, Mr Dylan said to his guards while biting his lips. He was as well suppressing his laughter. I've never been this embarrassed in my life and I'm sure my face has turned scarlet.

The guards opened the door for me and when I realize it's just the normal way of getting into a car, I cry all the more.

Oh! It's just the normal way,I mutter and close the door and open it then I got in.

What then is the use of all this brand new cars when they are obviously the same thing. When I said this, Justin couldn't conceal his laughter anymore and because his laugh was very contagious,I ended up laughing as well. Crying Laughing. I've never been more pitiable than now.

I dab away my tears still laughing. Justin realizing the presence of his Master comported himself and pressed some buttons to get the convertible driving on its own.

Silence befell the car as it drove to the manufacturing company section. Except for my sniffs, the car was very quiet. For the first time in the car, I looked up to admire it's features when I found Mr Dylan's burning stares at me. I looked away almost immediately feeling that my cheeks were already blushed red.

Are you uncomfortable here.

His s*xy voice reverberated in my ears and I was stunned for a while.

N-no Sir, I'm not, it's been ,I'm not used to this kind....

I trailed off and turned away my face. I couldn't complete my words. Imagine how I was trying to leave a good impression on my boss at least once but here I am, trying to climb over a car to get in when there is a door. This embarrassment was enough for me to resign but the salary paid here would not let me....

Well,I shook of this degrading feeling when we reached our destination and got out of the car.

Whoa, the building was very gigantic that I began to imagine climbing to the roof, waiting for night to come,then gazing at the stars while eating popcorn. Cool right!

You do fantasize a lot, I turned to look at the owner of the voice and I realize that i actually voiced out my thoughts.

Well, Mr Dylan placed his hands in his pockets and walked into the company with his retinue of guards trailing behind. These arrogant men left me behind and I had to run after them because their long legs really covered thrice my walking distance...

Inside the company, everybody had stopped their various duties to greet their CEO. Since it was a manufacturing company, they put on white janitor suits .

We walked on, I'm sure arrogant boss did not respond to their greetings like he does to me...

When Mr Dylan and his PA entered the elevator, they all turned to look at me who was just standing outside the elevator looking at them and wondering how to explain myself.

After a while, Justin shaked his head and said, Young Master gives you the permission to get in.

I'm sorry,I prefer using the stairs.

Mr Dylan raised his brows.
