Amara
Her Destiny
Amara
I remained silent as I stared out the window. I must say Canada 🇨🇦 is beautiful, very busy and noisy. After an hour of driving, we stopped at a very tall building. A glassy skyscraper to be precise.
"Whoa....i guess this is his company." I whisper to myself. The driver drove into the huge compound after when a fierce looking security guard sighted Collins in the back seat. The car got parked in the parking lot, different kinds of classy vehicles worth millions of cash are also parked here. Gosh! Is this place meant for car business??.
"Gray. Take a cab home. I'll drive. " Collins said to his driver after we got out.
"Alright boss." The guy reply and stretched forth the car key to Collins with a small bow.
Collins collects it. He dips his left hand into his pocket and brought out some cash. "Here, have this."
"Thank you so much boss." Gray says with a huge grin and collects it.
"Sure. Bye." He answers and faced me.
"Let's go."
I just nod and followed him behind as he walks toward the entrance of his company. As we entered, both his male and female staffs gathered to give him a glad hand.
"Welcome Sir!." They chorused.
"Thank you." He replies.
A man in his thirties moved close to him and bow his head low. "We've been expecting you sir, welcome boss."
Collins smirks. "Thank you Mr Ricardo."
I noticed the looks on some of the female staffs, obviously they are wondering who i am to Collins.
It's a big surprise Collins made me his secretary, I have no idea why but am happy anyways.
FAST FORWARD
Collin's driving us home. Today was very feverish, I and Collins worked on so many projects especially me. I secretly glance at him from the back seat, he's really handsome as he drives with his right arm. His attention is on the road.
My phone vibrated, its a test from Tricia. Whoa....I've almost forgotten about her.
It reads; 🥀Hey Amara! How are you?. Is everything okay??.🥀
I guess she's worried. I texts back.
🥀Am fine Tricia. Take care of yourself🥀. I smiled and tap the send button.
"We're here." Collins tells. I avert my attention from my phone screen to see a gigantic gate. It opens mechanically as he drives into the compound.
Whoa...so many technology in this human world.
"Get down." He orders. He unfastened his seat belt so did I. I came out of his car and behold, the sight of his mansion almost made me loose my balance.
"What the hell?." I mutter, amazed.
This is really awesome! He must have spent so much money in building this mansion. I wonder how his other house in New York will be if this one is just so wow...
I quickly compose myself. I don't wanna embarrass myself in front of him. He opens his car boot as I bought out the luggage. He closed it and walks toward his front porch. I followed him behind dragging our luggage along. He opens his door lock, more like a password. Wow.
"Follow me." He says immediately we entered inside his beautiful living room.
I nod. I struggled with the luggage as we climb up the shiny stairs and stop at a door.
"This is your room. It isn't locked." He tells.
I stole a brief stare at the door, it has this small words on it, I look closely. "Guest room".
"Thank you sir." I said lowering my head.
He collects his luggage from me and walks away. I sigh twisting the door knob and entered.
A 'wow' escaped my lips. Really stylish. I smile and place my luggage at the side of the king sized bed. I can't believe am gonna sleep in that!.
I guess i coming to Canada wasn't in vain!
Collins
I opened my room door and got in. Finally am home.....I feel so exhausted. I drop my luggage and undressed. I need to take a quick shower and have a rest later. I tied a towel round my waist and got into the bathroom.
After bathing, I cleaned up myself and wore a white tee-shirt with white shorts. I grab my phone from the bed and place a call to Mrs Hannah, my cook. I always call her whenever am here in my home in Canada.
She picks up instantly. "Good evening sir."
📱. Evening. Can you come over?
📲. Am sorry I can't sir.
📱. Why? I asked.
📲. I lost my husband weeks ago. Am afraid I can't make it sir."
📱. Oh am so sorry.
📲. Thank you sir.
I sigh and disconnects. I dip my phone into my shorts pocket and walked out of my room. Gosh am so famished. I can't even cook
