Tempted By My Boss

Katherine's Point of View

I looked around at my small room blankly, still, my mind is not at ease. I love my room, but it's not like how I see it anymore, something is missing. My family's car accident is still fresh on my mind, I can't believe now that my mother and father are now gone. The accident is still vividly clear in my mind, and my little sister is still young, she's only 10 years old, but the tragedy she saw, can't be forgotten.

I went to check my parent's bedroom, I miss them so much, their scent is still here, the vanilla scent that will surely last here. My parent's room is big enough, a wall with white paint and a soft bed and comfy pillow and blanket. My tears went down my cheeks. I need to be strong for my little sister, I need to be strong enough.

I'm preparing our dinner, I can't help but think of the memories we had here every dinner time, we are always complete, but now it's just two of us.

"Rina! Let's eat."

Rina walks like a zombie, as she sat on her chair I saw in her eyes that she was longing for my mother, my mother loves cooking for Rina. Rina is my 10-year-old sister.

Next day.

In Caddel University.

I'm waiting for Glinda, Diana, Darcy, Lucas, Ethan, and Jed. They are my friends ever since. I have already texted them that I'm at the university's gate.

After 30 minutes. Finally, they are all here. We are all in Freshman Year. Since high school, we know each other well. In our section block, there are two new faces, in my 14 years of studying here in New York City, the students here look familiar so much. This new face looks intensely to me, he has fair skin, dark handsome eyes, thick brows, and pink-red lips. I just smiled at him and smiled back.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

Lunchtime! My friends and I usually gathered in Caddel University Eatery first, but this new face blocked the way out the door. He suddenly smiles at me and says, "Hi, are you, Katherine Parker?"

"Yes, that's me, why?"

"Uhm, nothing, goodbye! enjoy your lunch Katherine." he suddenly left me there hanging. He's weird, I just laughed secretly and walk fast to the eatery.

At Cadell's University Eatery.

There he is, walking and looking in my direction, this weird handsome guy huh.

"Hi there Katherine, can I invite you to our house later after school? I just need you to help me with school activities, our dean told me that you are the smartest girl in our block," he says to me straightly.

"Uhm, did the dean tell you that? Is that true?" I asked him curiously.

"Yes, if you don't believe me then go to the office of the dean."

"Sure, wait for me at the gate," I answered coldly.

He's a bit weird, let me rephrase it, he's so weird! Yes, I'm top of the section but I don't know why he feels like he's a VIP student here. I rolled my eyes in the air.

At the gate.

"There you are." the new face says at me while smiling.

He's so weird, why he's always smiling at me? Duh, we're not even close! I just smiled shortly at him.

"So, what's your name? Bugging me all day, huh, and I don't even know you or your name, Mr. New Face!"

"Easy, ease yourself Katherine." he laughs at me.

"How can I ease myself if you are so strange!"

"Hey, Katherine, I'm Ahmar Cooper, I just got back from a mile away from City, this is my hometown, and I'm not strange, I promise." he seriously says to me.

After a long walk, finally, we arrive at their house. Their house is located near the woods, it's dark here but there's a lamp post near the road, it's kinda creepy.

"We're here Katherine."

I just looked at him and he opened their big door.

"Ahm, Katherine, feel free at home, I'm just gonna get you your snacks, feel free to roam around!"

"Sure, sure Ahmar."

I roam my eyes to their living room. Their house is big, their living room has a big fireplace, a big dark red themed sofa set, wide old paintings, and their living room wall paint with white and dark red and pale red. Their house is a Lil bit dim. I love their house, he said to feel free to roam and feel at home, their second-floor looks scary because it's dark but there's something about there that makes me want to go to the second floor.

Their stairs are gold with dark red carpet with dim lights. I don't know where the light switch is, I don't have my phone beside me to use as a flashlight, I feel like I'm brave enough to go upstairs. I can't see anything, I cling to the dark, I can't find a light switch or any light, I touch a cold wall and someone grabs me inside that room beside the cold wall.

I touched the hand covering my mouth, it's a masculine arm, so it's a man huh, I'm scared because I thought Ahmar is living alone. I don't know what to do, their house feels strange. This room has a dim light, it's just right that you'll see the human face or beings. He removed his hands from my mouth and locked the door. I'm panicking but I can't show him because he might harm me.

"Hello, little girl." he sexily says to me in a joking tone.

"Who are you?!" I asked him angrily while my voice is shivering.

"I'm your future boyfriend hun." he winked at me.

"Why did you do that to me, and seriously, who the f-CK are you?"

"I'm Ambroz Cadel, Ahmar's best friend."

"What do you need from me? I think Ahmar is looking for me, let me go okay?"

"Wait, what's your name?"

I just stared at him blankly.

"What? I need to get your name at least before I let you go" he says to me while smiling and looking at me intensely.

"Okay, I'm Katherine, Katherine Parker, can I go now?" I said sarcastically.

"Sure, see you around my Katherina.” He said in a husky voice and he gave me a peck kiss on my lips.

Just what the gell! He’s annoying, that jerk he kissed me easily, that’s my first kiss! What an asshole he is! I'm so angry, what’s the meaning of that kiss? Huh.

I went down immediately, and I need to go home, right now, as in.

“Ahmar! Ahmar!” I shouted Ahmar’s name loudly. The first day of my freshman year but my first kiss is now gone!
