Pov: Mea
Mea had climbed a ladder to get an ancient history book from the top shelf. She worked part time at the library since she had many responsibilities to cater for . Mea had just graduated from Haven university through a scholarship and she had attained a bachelor's degree in business administration and management. Unfortunately she did not get a job but she never gave up.
The door bell rung," I'll be there shortly...give me a minute," she said as she finally pulled out the book.Suddenly Mea lost balance and was about to land on the floor when a pair of masculine hands grasped her. " Uuuughhh!!!" Mea shrieked as she was about to fall.
When she opened her eyes she made an eye contact with the most beautiful ocean blue eyes.She almost drowned in them as the man put her down. Mea shifted sheepishly " I'm sorry... sometimes I can be clumsy .
" Mmmh,better watch out next time," the man replied nonchalantly. Well I'm looking for a certain novel called thorns ....he said as he scrolled his phone.
" Thones in beauty .It's a very enticing novel about ...," " Please stop . I didn't ask you to give me the synopsis of the book . I'm here to buy I for my niece who's a pain in the ass . So don't add up to my problems. Get me the book, the man said coldly.
Mea felt as if a dagger had just stabbed her in the chest ." I'm sorry sir, it won't happen again. Here's the book .It's US 38.72 , sir.
The nonchalant man ran his fingers through his raven black hair as he picked up his phone. He seemed pissed off by the caller but Mea didn't want to involve her self with what didn't concern her.
After the man picked up the package he rushed to his Tesla * which was the latest model * . As Mea was organizing the books she suddenly noticed that the man had left his wallet. The wallet had the man identification card, credit card and business card.
Although Mea was in a tough situation she could never steal anybody's money. She took out the identification card and realized that the man's name was Ace Arthur. Arthur? That name ringed a bell but she shrug and took out the business card and tried calling Ace . Unfortunately the line was busy and when it went through the caller hang up on her.
" How rude , " Mea thought out loud. She decided to keep the wallet until the owner came for it .After work she had planned to go and surprise his boyfriend Damien since it was his birthday and she knew that he wouldn't remember.
