Rose was following her boss from his behind.She was feeling extremely embarrassed.Everywhere she stuck in this kind of embarrassing situation.Surprisingly this is the second time her boss rescued her.May be she should thank him for defending for herself.
"Thank you,sir." Rose said to her boss.
"For what?" Kelvin Kyle stopped at his place and stared at her.
"What happened at the elevator and you stood up for me."She said.She really was grateful for that.May be in his personal life,he is not a saint but to her,except of being a jerk sometimes in reality he always saved her from the embarrassing moments.
"Isn't that a duty of a boss?Dont think it otherwise.If there is another Woman in place of you,I would also stand for her."
"I know sir." Rose smiled.
"But I couldn't understand one thing!"Kelvin Kyle started walking.
"What?"
"I thought you are a brave woman." He asked.
"I am sorry I don't understand what you are talking about?" Rose narrowed her eyes.
"You always dared to talk back me.But when he was misbehaving with you,you just keep there standing instead of teaching him a lesson.If you were unable to do that atleast you could scream but what were you doing there???Are you dumb?" Kelvin Kyle was clearly very angry.Rose could feel that.
Rose was silent.What should she answer??Whenever something like this happened a flashback from her past started playing in front of her eyes that she never wanted to remember!!
"I was about to just slap him...."Rose tried to say.
Kelvin Kyle sighed a long breath.
" Why do you always get yourself involved in this kind of mess?"He said with an unusual tone as if he was very worried for her.
"I....I...." Rose was feeling very bad.Seriously...Why she got herself always involved in this kind of situation!!
"Don't take the public elevator ever."He suggested.
"Huh....." Rose exclaimed.What is he saying??Is that even possible....
"I said dont take these public elevators ever.Or wear some ugly clothes and ugly makeup that hide your curves and your pretty face." Kelvin Kyle said without any expression.
"Ugly cloth!!Ugly makeup!!" Rose's jaw dropped.What kind of suggestion is this.He is blabbering totally nonsense.Rose stared at him as if he is some psychopath just escaped from mental asylum.
"Look...I am not saying.What you are wearing is wrong!!I am just trying to say as you can't protect yourself then stop being beautiful.It is your beauty that is attracting everyone...." Kelvin Kyle tried to make her understand about his point.
Rose sighed a long breath.May be he is right.It is her beauty that kind of made her life miserable.May be beauty is not a blessing for everyone.Specially a girl like her who now doesn't have a strong background.
Last time she remembered,she was badly in need of money.She took a job of baby sitter.First fifteen days were fine.But on sixteenth day she found out the four old baby that she had the responsibility to take care of him,the babies mother was not at home.The house owner and the babies father tried to misbehave with her.She left the job.She informed that pervert's wife about him.But surprisingly she didn't believe him.Instead of believing her,she said that it was she who tried to seduce her husband.When she couldn't succeed in her misdeed,Rose was blaming her husband.Without support of parents,Rose's life was not that easy.
Rose was walking indifferently with her boss.She was feeling very bitter in her heart.
"Come here with me." Kelvin Kyle entered into the ladies section.
Rose followed him.
The stuff almost came running toward them.
"How may I help you,Sir?" The staff asked.She was a pretty lady in her early twenties.
"I want a suitable dress for attending a function like an engagement ceremony." He said.
"For whom sir?"
"For her." Kelvin Kyle referred toward Rose.
Rose narrowed her eyes.
"For me!!!" She exclaimed.
"Yes."
"May I know why?" Rose was feeling surprised.
"Because you will wear that in the evening."
"But sir you don't need to buy me a dress.I have dress to wear."
"How many times should I remind you that I don't like to hear the word no..." Kelvin Kyle coldly said.
Rose remains silent.She was not in the mood of arguing with her boss.It's better to be silent.
The staff showed them some dress.Kelvin Kyle chose a few from them.
"Try this." He ordered her.
Rose took the dresses and went to the changing room.The dress was a long floor touch gown.It was sleeveless and had an open back and cream in color.It was quite good.
Rose came out from the changing room.Kelvin Kyle took a look of her.The dress was looking very beautiful on her.But he wanted more elegant dress for her.He asked her to try another dress.
Rose changed into all the dresses for almost seven to eight times.She was feeling kind of irritated.He came to buy a dress for her but he didn't even ask her about her opinion.Cant he pick a random dress for her!!Who said to buy a dress for her.He is really very weird guy!!
Rose changed into the last one.It was a wine red color dress.it is narrow at the waist and after that it flowed freely toward the ground.There was a light work of wine red shining material around the fabric of chest.It was full sleeve.Rose came out from the changing room.
Kelvin Kyle was staring at just random direction.As she came out from the changing room,he just froze on his place.She was looking just elegant.How can a woman look so beautiful!!Everytime she was changing into a different outfit,he became confused that it was the dress that was complimenting her body or it was her that was complimenting the dresses.Every dress she was wearing that was looking good on her.Why does she need to look that beautiful...
"Sir..." Rose said.
Kelvin Kyle came back to reality.
"Yes." He said.
"I think It is enough.I just cant change into more outfits." Rose said with an annoyed tone.
Kelvin Kyle nodded.He made his choice.
"Pack the dress that she is wearing." He ordered the staff.
The staff went to pack the dress.Suddenly Rose remembered something.She instantly checked the price tag on the dress.Her jaw almost dropped to the floor seeing the price of the dress.
Fifty thousand dollar!!!!
The dress is so expensive.She can't accept this dress from her boss.Her salary is ten thousands dollars per month.It is her five months salary amount in total.Neither she could afford this kind of expensive dress nor she could accept this from her boss.
Kelvin Kyle was about to pay the bill.Rose stopped him.
"Sir..."
"Yes."
"I don't want this."
"Why?"
"I don't like the dress." She lied.
Kelvin Kyle stared at her.
"But I like the dress.You must wear this in the evening."
"Sir this dress is so expensive.I can't afford this kind of expensive dress for myself." She said.There is no shame about admitting this.She really can't afford to spend this much.Neither she wanted from others.
"Who told you to buy this?I am buying this for you!" He said in a very cold voice.
"Sir I said earlier.I don't want you to buy dress for me.And obviously I can't accept such an expensive dress like this."
"Rose....I think you forget I am currently the richest man in the country.The regular wine that I normally drink,a bottle of it cost more than this dress.It is nothing for me..." Kelvin Kyle said sarcastically.
"Sir,I know you are very rich.A billionaire.Fifty thousand dollar is nothing to you.But for a normal person like me it is a lot.I don't want it.If you want to buy it for me then please give me something cheaper." She said in a breath.
"Look.Last time you did your job very well.I got a deal that is worth a hundred billion.So consider it as your reward as I am very much satisfied with your hard work.I think.You shouldn't have any problem accepting this now.Have you?" He asked her.It is true Rose is very much devoted to her work.So Kelvin Kyle used this excuse to give her the dress.
Rose nodded.If it is a reward then she doesn't have any problem…
Finally Kelvin Kyle paid for the dress and bought her the dress.They both walked out from the show room.As Rose came out from the showroom,her eyes lit up seeing something.
A claw machine!!!
