Chapter 11：CHAPTER 11: CEO IS IN MY OFFICE

SHANA

After that incident at the rooftop, I tried my best not to attempt to go back there because I get nervous to see him again. There are too many reasons for me to cross our paths because I am always afraid that he will recognize me as Zari the one he kissed and two I do not like the feeling when he was with me. 

My body goes crazy like I am not in myself that is rare for me. Days passed still I have not heard from Zari and I let Jake handle it for now. I know she is in good hand and I can still sense that she is not in some danger. It is twin's instinct.

I did my job in the company just the way I used to be. I segregate my personal affairs and focus my responsibilities for the job they were paying for me.

I always stay late at work the only one who last to go home. It is better this way than going home to my unit to an empty house. I miss my family always I know I should be used to it but I cannot help recall the memories I spent together with them.

Sometimes I always think if I choose into the right decision to be away from them in faraway miles from home.

Then I realized immediately that this is what I wanted and this is where it should be. It is not forever I could depend on my family. In the future, I can have my own home, my own family. 

I continue my work without mindful that there is someone at my office door. "I guess you are that focus with your work that you did not pay attention with your surroundings." Colton said smirking at me.

'What the hell! CEO is in my office' 

I stood up and bowed. "Good evening, Mr. Torres. I did not know you are there." I said as I seated back to my chair. 

"Oh, I am sorry. Yes, I got my mind off for a moment there." I said politely. "Well, what can I do for you, boss?" I asked and put down my pen. He stepped forward and sat on the couch.

He sat comfortably and I was not at ease that he was in front of me now. It was unusual for him to come in the department. "Nothing much, I was about to go home when I passed by and saw a light in your office. Guess you are still here and busy. I did not know you are very workaholic person and stay late."

"Just finishing a little more before I heading home." I replied. "Yes, my colleagues were usually until 7 in the evening and I stay until nine of the night. But they did not extend tonight because it is Friday."

"So, there is no one in your house waiting for you or no dates plan for the evening." He said and stood up walking towards her door. "You should loosen up a little, Shana, it is Friday night, do not focus too much of work." He added. "You should feel what life is living in this world than paying attention about work too much." From there, he closed my door then disappears.

I paused for a moment there, thinking about what he said. 'He was right all of it. I am workaholic person and I forgot what life was all about. It might not always have fun but at least occasionally, I have to feel life myself.

All my colleagues under me were all married and have family and kids. However, I in the other hand, no one in the house waiting for me after work that is one of the reasons I extend my working hours.

I immediately arrange the files then turned off the lights in my office then go home.
