6 I am the BOSS!

Looking around, Her cabin, which only had her black desk, a few chairs, and a big bookshelf behind her seat. The gray wallpaper. No potted plants, No decorations, No photos. Nothing on the desk! Just a Clock on the wall.

The impression of her cabin was 'Forlorn and lonely place.' Ira sighed.

Her Chair did not feel comfortable anymore. The glass walls enable her to keep an eye on everyone in the office. Exactly opposite to her cabin was the conference hall.

Ira smiled, recalling the time her mother told her about her marriage fixed with Vivian.

Not just without her consent, but without her knowledge date of engagement was fixed.

Since things already reached this point she wanted to clarify things with her dad

She barged into an ongoing meeting and cried out loud: "Dad, I won't marry Vivian"

Witnessing her temper. Everyone in the meeting guessed a big fight between a father and a daughter to be initiated.

Though curious, but they knew 'Curiosity kills the cat' and left quietly.

After the big devil, the only one they were afraid of, was this devil girl.

"Why did you choose him?" she asked.

His father explained, "Didn't you go on a blind date with him before?"

"But why him?I went on blind date with Vivian butthat was only once. I went on 7 blind dates. I even met one of them twice."

Her dad still trying to explain"But haven't you rejected them all?"

She cried out "Vivian was rejected too. He is younger than me. He is just an architect with no income."

Dad still seriously explained "Vivian is an architect who builds peoples home; will build yours too. As for age 1-2 years here and there doesn't count"

"Why did you fix my marriage with him abruptly?" she demanded.

Dad with a straight face "Ira that is because your horoscope matched! You're perfectly made for each other"

Ira knew this man his father was traditional, but she still found it unbelievable

"What!!"

Finally, wanting to give up 'the why him' argument.

Ira declared "I absolutely won't marry him"

"You can do that. Just walk out of the company" Dad was not the one to back off.

"Dad, it is not funny! What do you mean walkout, unless I have been fired why would I willingly walk out; Never in this lifetime." she gritted her teeth in anger.

"Then it isdecided. We will havean engagement celebration in 10 days." he added, " or would you like to be fired?"

Unwilling to admit defeat "Dad, you can't bully people like that"

"Of course I can. I am the boss"He declared.

'Hah, what a finishing statement. You can't win against me girl!!

'And so Vivian and I who met each other only twice...

First, on a blind date which I don't remember the other was on the day of engagement, Were married.

There was no love at first sight.

No butterflies in the stomach.

I was 26 when I married him.

Our reason for marriage: Our horoscope matched!!! Seriously.

I, who was near the peak of my career, He, who was shamelessly standing on the starting point.

He was just a year younger to me.

I, strong, confident and determined individual. He, weak and incompetent.

I, a fearless person. He, a coward.

Neither our personalities matched nor our ambitions.

This marriage was just a compromise for my career.
