Forsaken And Found

"Krissy" her colleague, Sheila shouted from her working cubicle.

"Yes!" she looked up and asked her. Her colleague signalled her thumb to their boss room.

"He wants you now!" she screamed again. Krissy noted and walked towards her boss's room.

"Come in Krissy!" She entered when she heard his friendly voice.

"Yes boss, how can I help you?"

"Tomorrow we have a business banquet and you need to attend on behalf of me" her boss Joe Black informed.

"Why me, JB?”

"Why not you, Krissy? You will meet billionaires and handsome guys, use the opportunity wisely" advised JB.

"Oh! Come on JB, you know I am not interested in man" she scowled at him.

"Who cares about your interest? This is your work, no more discussion!" She has no choice to accept it.

"Hmmm! Why she is so stubborn not to be with a man, she is already 25 years old and doesn't have a boyfriend." JB was grumbling to himself.

Krisandra has been working for five years with JB once she finished her colleague, she didn't finish her study with flying colours but she is a very hardworking girl, fast learner and keens on learning new things. She was the youngest staff in his IT firm and he cares for her like a big brother.

A lot of his rich, handsome suppliers or customers have tried to date her but she never entertains them. At a glance, Krisandra is not the most beautiful woman in his office, but her smile and eyes attract many men. Her radiant eyes indirectly attract her opposite sex. She has a medium size of body and good figures too. She was not very fair but when she blushes her skin colour will change into a pinkie rose colour which makes her look outstanding.

"So how now?" Sheila asked her.

"Hmmm! He force me to go to a banquet tomorrow, I have no partner."

"Take Benny with you, he will be off tomorrow" she suggested.

"Will he go, he doesn't know anyone there even I don't know too" she sighed again.

"I really don't know what JB wants me to do there."

"He will follow you where ever you take him. Don't think too much, just have fun, okay?" Sheila winked at her.

"I will text him after work." Sheila nodded her head. Benny, Sheila’s elder brother wanted to date Krissy a few months ago but she was not interested in him.

"Hi Benny, Krissy here, are you free tomorrow?" Krissy texted him. Benny was happy when Sheila told him about Krissy's problem and he was desperately waiting for her text.

"Yes, I am off tomorrow, why, you need anything from me?" he replied immediately.

"Hummm! Kind off, I am sure Sheila has told you so can you follow me?"

"Yeah! She did, ya I am fine to follow you, what time, where and dressing code? I will pick you up!"

"Dinner starts at 7 pm at X hotel, casual attire; you can pick me at 6.30 pm since it's near to me."

"Sure and is this a date for us?" Krissy was blushing when she read his message, what date now? Why he is thinking it is a date?

"No, a favour, I will treat you with a meal in the future." She is really not interested in a man. She has seen all types of men in her life. They are the most useless creature God has created mistakenly.

"Okay madam!" and he has a long face. He has been trying to date her for months but she never even want to go out for a casual dinner.

A car was honking at her when she was waiting in her apartment lobby. Benny waved his hand and she walked to his car. She was wearing a maroon colour with small black polka dots, a sleeveless long dress which has buttons from her chest until her knee. When she walked her fair calves can be seen in contrast with her dress colour. Matching with it, she had a maroon handbag and wore two-inch high heels.

"You look beautiful" his compliment made her blush and she looks outstanding.
